They get a call to check out a research station that has missed several check ins. When they get there, the place is deserted expect for one small child.
" Helloooo!!! Anybody home!!?" John knocked hard on the side of Jim's head. The boy didn't flinch or move, he just sat there, staring up at the dark night sky. John laughed and turned to his friends.
" Lokie here, guys. He's a tard!" Jim didn't even acknowledge their presence, and John resumed his knocking, well, punching the side of Jim's head.
" What the hell are you doing?" Jim's eyes looked away from the sky and turned to Bones, he smiled and waved. Bones walked in front of John and crossed his arms.
"Aww, It's nothin, McCoy, just trying to knock some thought into this tard here." John went to knock on Jim's head, but Bones grabbed his hand.
" Jimmy's not a tard. He just doesn't talk much." The boys laughed.
" Yeah sure...he can't talk! He's a mute, and a tard." Bones knew for a fact Jim wasn't mute, and he was probably one of the smartest boys in the entire school.He just hadn't said much since his big Brother Sam packed his bags and left the sate. The school knew that too, that's why they were sending him to the Tarsus Academy to get a better education than a tiny Georgia town could provide.
" Leave him alone. He's only six. He don't have to talk a lot if he don't want to." Bones grabbed Jim's hand and walked away. They walked in silence for a while as they walked in the cool night, out to the peach orchid Jim's step dad owned.
" Hey Bones?" it was a tiny voice, tiny and sad.
" Yeah Jimmy?" The grip Jim had on Len's hand tightened and he walked loser.
"I love you. You're the best big brother in the world." Bones smiled, and looked up at the stars. Glad he could do better than Sam did.

Len wasn't all too sure of the boy his mother had adopted. He had sad, blue eyes that were constantly stuck on the night sky. He didn't talk much, and didn't really acknowledge anyone who spoke to him. He only stared dumbly at whoever was speaking. Len figured Jim didn't speak much because he was only five, and maybe didn't know how to. In fact, Jim didn't say a word all through the first night he stayed with the McCoys. He was silent until he lay in bed, listening to Eleanor read " The Little Prince." She was in the middle of the story when Jim sat up.
" My Ma said she'd be watching me from the stars." Eleanor stopped reading and looked at him, her features empathetic.
" But there aren't any stars here," Jim rolled over on his side and buried his head in his pillow. Len understood almost instantly. Jim had lived on a farm, in a rural part of Iowa, away from the big cities. The was Atlanta, all the lights from the city made the stars hard to see. Jim missed his mother. Eleanor kissed Jim on the head, then kissed Len and turned out the lights. Len heard a small whisper when the light went out. A small gasp. There were glow in the dark stars all over the ceiling and wall. Jim sat up when he saw them, and stood on his bed, arm outstretched as he whispered.
" Ma."
An Exert
“ You’re not in any trouble, Len. we just need your help.” Ten year old Leonard Mccoy sat awkwardly in his chair, looking down at his untied shoe laced. He was at the police station. He didn’t much like it, most of the men who worked there were middle aged and fat and smelled of beef and cheese, accept for the chief, who was a woman who went by aunt Jane by just about everyone in the small georgian county. Leon didn’t want to look up at Mr. Pike. While he was a bit nicer than the rest of them.
“ Well, whaddya need help with?” he asked with a bit of a sigh. Apparently Pike took that as consent because he walked over and closed his office door.
“ There’s a little boy who live next door to you, Len. Do you know him?” Len nodded. The only other kid who lived in his neighborhood was five year old Jimmy Kirk. He was nice enough, just extremely annoying.
“Well, we think someone might be hurting him. We think it might be his step father, but we’re not sure.” Len frowned.
“ What do you mean? Jimmy’s step daddy works here. he’s a policeman.” Pike nodded and sat down next to him.
“ Well, sometimes even the nicest looking people can do terrible things, kid.” Leonard thought that over for a bit. Later he’d look back on this day as one of the most important in his life.
“So will you do it?” Len nodded and pike clapped him on the shoulder. Pike then gave him a camera. He was to take photos of anything that could prove that JIms step father was hurting him, but he had to be careful.
“ Don’t worry,” he said, standing and tying his shoes. “ careful my middle name.
this is the first paragraph of a fic I'm thinking of writing. Would you read it? It wouldn't be a kid fic all the way through, I was thinking of making it one of those age progressive things....
(I actualy meant for this to be uch longer but words can sometimes be really hard to fit into sentences. I hope this is okay!)
prompt: Kirk pulls a Marty McFly and ends up about 20 years in the past. He doesn't want to mess up the timeline, so he lays low and tries not interact with anyone. Despite this, he runs into little kid!Bones and there's major cuteness until Jim finds a way back to the future.
“ Uhhh..Scotty?” Jim looked around. He was supposed to be going to Georgia with Bones(who was not where to be seen) but instead he’d ended up in the middle of no where. He tried to get into contact with Scotty again, but it was no use.
“ Hey! What’re you doin’ here?” Jim whipped around to see a kid. he had to be about six, with big hazel eyes and freckle dusted cheeks. He was standing there, hands on his hips, frowning just slightly.
“ Um...kid, can you tell me where I am?” Jim bent down to level with the kid, and he took a step back.
“ What’re you drunk or somethin’?” he crossed his arms and looked at Jim disapprovingly.
“ no, not drunk, just lost.” The kid’s arms dropped to his sides, and an easy smile came over his face.
“ Oh. You’re on my daddy’s property. He don’t like trespassers much, so you better go on.” The kid didn’t have any front teeth, so he had a bit of a lisp. It was adorable.
“ Oh, I’m sorry. Jim said, standing again. “ Do you have a phone I can use?” the boy stood there for a moment, squining.
“ you sound an awful lot like those people they warn us about in school.” Jim laughed at that, he supposed he did kind of sound like some sort of pedo.
“ Yeah, well I just want to get home to my friend. I miss him a lot.” The little boy thought it over.
“ Do you promise?” Jim nodded
“ yeah I promise. the boy stood and grabbed him by his sleeve.
“ Okay, come on! I’ll take ya through the field cause’ it’s faster. Just don’t step on any mice, kay?” Jim raised a brow to the odd request, but he agreed all the same. It took almost thiry minutes of walking through plants that were taller than himself to get to the kid’s house, and Jim wondered if the boy even knew what he was doing. but when they finally broke out of hte crop, there was an old, cozy looking house nestled a few yards away.
“ Mamma!!” the boy shouted, and ran up to the house, he was greeted with a stern
“LEONARD HORATIO MCCOY! What have I told you about goin’ out in those damn fields!” Before JIm could react, there was the familiar tingling sensation and shimmering light in front of his eyes. He was back on the enterprise, and everyone was standing there, wide eyed.
“we thought you were dead!” Scotty shouted, obviously glad that he wasn’t. “ Where the hell were you?” jim smirked at Bones, who had slumped against a wall in relief.
“ I have no clue.” Jim said, hands in his pockets.
The second time they beamed down, nothing went wrong. Bones asked him several times where he’d been, but Jim replied no different than he had on the beam padd in front of the crew.
((Okay, so I had this thought that Bones would probably remember that day. Because he met Jim then he would have seemed kind of familiar on the shuttle and stuff. Like, Bones’ entire timeline would be altered just because he met Jim earlier than he would have. I dunno it just sounds right. Thanks for visiting Mcficlets!))
