"Optimal orbit achieved, Captain." Sulu spoke from his station, pressing numerous buttons to maintain their place. Jim nodded as he stood up to go to the transporter room. This was a usual routine evaluation of a Starfleet regulated planet as well as the opportunity to see one of the most beautiful sunsets ever described by Starfleet. On the way to the transporter room, Spock started walking alongside Jim.

"Hello Mr. Spock, any news about this planet?" Jim asked normally, but couldn't help but notice the subtle difference in the way Spock had parted his hair. The Vulcan looked down at his PADD and began to read off a list.

"Planet Alphomega. Class M planet with technology similar to that of late 20th century Earth. Lifeforms worship a female deity whom they believe ate the fruit of a sacred tree, producing their entire planet and being from her soul." Spock explained and Jim attempted to listen but was obviously distracted by his First Officer. Walking into the transporter room, Scotty was waiting there to beam down Kirk, Spock, Bones, and a few red shirts.

"Energize."

The crew landed on the planet safely, looking around to ensure that everyone made it to the planet's surface. They had landed in a particularly forested area, trees surrounding them on all sides.

"Readings Mr. Spock?"

"Environment is stable, all readings of lifeforms seem to be coming from the northeast." Spock stated much like a Vulcan and Jim nodded in response, motioning for the crew to follow as he walked into the woods to try and find some form of civilization. However, it wasn't long before they found a group of natives, bowing down and mumbling an ancient language to a very curvy and twisted purple tree. Of course, it was just like Bones to make a noise and startle the group. A woman with ankle length neon orange hair turned around and screamed when she noticed the crew of the Enterprise. Two large men with purple hair shot straight up, guns pointed at the men while everyone else continued bowing to the tree.

"State your business!" The larger of the males grumbled, pointing his gun at Jim.

"We come in peace. We are the crew of the Starship Enterprise, here on a routine evaluation on Starfleet command." Jim explained and the smaller male's eyes widened, putting his gun away.

"You are from Starfleet? I am sorry for the misunderstanding." He said awkwardly. "I am Jaroen and this is my brother Gargemol." Jaroen then gestured to the rest of the group. "You have interrupted our daily worshipping of the goddess Farfuess." Jaroen said looking at Captain Kirk. Then Gargemol stepped in front of his brother. "Would you care to join us in worship?" He offered to the crew.

"Captain, I would highly advise against this. Alphomega tradition involves feeding newcomers a special-"

"Aw, lighten up Mr. Spock. These people seem fairly reasonable and calm natured. Why don't we indulge them for a moment?" Jim laughed and nodded to Gargemol who took him into the crowd of people. Bones looked at Spock a bit worried.

"I don't like where this is headed, Spock." Bones muttered crossing his arms nervously as he watched his friend and Captain partake in an odd ritual. Gargemol took Kirk through the crowd and placed him at the base of the curvy purple tree. Then, yelling into the bowing crowd in an alien language, two gorgeous women walked up to Jim. One of the women had long blue hair down to her waist and sparkling green eyes, the other had neon pink hair down to her thighs and piercing purple eyes. Gargemol then turned to the crowd and spoke in the alien language again, causing everyone to sit up and cheer. The women standing around Kirk then plucked a beautiful yellow fruit from the tree above him.

"This is the fruit of Farfuess. She is the mother and creator of all life. To you the newcomer, we welcome thee and insist that you take the essence of Farfuess." The woman with blue hair spoke with a voice like silk, handing Kirk the yellow fruit. The crowd was going crazy with excitement as Jim held the cooky looking fruit. It was neon yellow with specks of pink all over it. It looked like a combination of an Earth apple and a special Vulcan flower that Spock once brought onboard. The woman with pink hair knelt down to Jim and cocked her head.

"Please... eat Farfuess's Essence." She insisted and Jim shrugged.

"What the hell." And with that, he bit a large chunk out of the fruit and the entire crowd practically screamed as they began chanting in the strange language. The fruit was extremely bitter and sour, as if Jim had just bitten into a lemon. But then there was a very pleasant aftertaste that reminded him of a glorious candy he once received from a man in the Alpha Centauri system. He took one more bite into the fruit before the woman with pink hair took it away from him and Gargemol helped him to his feet.

"You are now one with the Jenovian Tribe. You and your crew are welcome back any time you wish." Gargemol smiled, placing his large muscular hand on Jim's shoulder. Jim nodded and waved goodbye before returning to his crew.

"See.. Told you they were peaceful." Jim smirked proudly but his smile faded when he saw Spock pinching the bridge of his nose annoyed.

"Captain, that fruit was Farfuess's Essence. According to my research, Farfuess's Essence has a gender altering chemical inside of it."

"Meaning?"

"Meaning that anyone who is foolish enough to take a bite out of it in the ritual you just performed will become the opposite-" Spock didn't get to finish what he was saying because Jim passed out right then and there. Spock managed to catch him in time before he hit the ground. Bones immediately beamed the crew back up and got Jim in the sickbay as fast as possible.

Jim finally awoke in Sickbay with Bones watching over him.

"Oh my god... Bones how long was I-" Jim immediately stopped. Something was wrong... Something was VERY wrong. His voice was about ten times higher in pitch than normal and he felt like there was a large weight on his chest that wasn't there before... And his pants were definitely not as tight as before.

"Jim, I'm gonna need you to stay calm ok? This will come as a bit of a shock." Bones tried to tell him but Jim was already freaking out. He looked over himself, raising his hands, only to find feminine hands with manicured nails. And it got even worse when those hands reached to his chest, finding two large masses that were not their before.

"SOMEONE GIVE ME A MIRROR!" He screamed and Nurse Chapel complied. Jim's hands shook furiously when he realized that looking into the mirror... He had become female.

This was the only time James T. Kirk could remember that he screamed so loud and for so long that he passed out.
