The first Picture shows already that the Enterprise is in danger. Some experimental hyper warp-ships vanished and the crew of our glorious hero needs to figure out the problems causing this issue.
They are not the first time in this sector and do remember what has happened in the past. Gamma Canaris N, they do have a mission and came down with the shuttle really fast. Zefram Cochrane was surviving thanks to a symbiotic relationship. while Kirk, Spock, and Bones try to leave the planet, the female Commissioner Nancy Hdron was dying.
Kirk figures out that the Companion was in love with Mr. Cochrane but not vice versa. Finally the Companion decided to move into the body of Nancy to start a relationship with Zefram.
After the remembering sequence, they do decide that they do need help from the person who was causing the first contact of the human mankind with the Vulcans.
Our down-beaming Fellowers met Zefram Cochrane again and the Companion-Nancy got furious about it and was sabotaging their thinking. Zefram and Nancy had a moment of free speech and sorted the topic out. Mr Z. was finally able to help our crew and gave him some further calculations.
The Companion knows more about the topic and does decide to join Jim and Co to help them. The female body of Nancy is again just hours away from death.
Scotty was able to adjust the warp system and the Enterprise was able to reach out to the hyper craft warp-ships. Kirk offered to move over to help them and got a rejection. Finally, the ships moved into Combat mode and shot a strange ray which causes that the Enterprise started to shrink but the crew did not.
Somehow shrinking stopped and they returned back to normal. Our crew figured out that there are additional cloud creatures like our companion on board of all those vessels. the Cloud-lifeform is explaining that this high speed was much too high for the crews and they are all dead. The companion explained that Warp 15 was the reason she joined and protected all of them.
The Companion wants to leave this special space together with Kirk and Co but the other cloud-creatures do not allow it and will terminate if the companion will not stay.
Kirk decided that they will not leave without Companion and Scotty has to do some magic within 10 min.
Scotty did it in time and they started with full warp. after a while, they finally left this space and returned back to Gamma Canaris N. Just in time they are back to rescue Nancy. The final words are that they want to inform Starfleet about the dangerous warp-drive modifications and the story ends here.
