AU: Hello everyone! This is my first fanfiction, though I have had this idea for my OC forever now. Just a heads up, flashback will be used so don't get too confused. This also occurs after Into Darkness and is happening while the crew is on their five year mission. Chapters will (hopefully) be put up once a week, however no promises will be made, especially since midterms are on their merry way. Flames will be used to heat up my dinner, but constructive criticism is always welcome! Enjoy!

Chapter 1: Blink

Blink. Blink blink. BEEP. Blink. BEEEEEEEEEP.

"Chekov, will you cut that out?" Sulu turned to him exasperatedly.

"Whoops! Sorry, Sulu. I was…" he sighed,"…bored." Pavel Chekov was very bored. It had only been two months since they had left Earth to begin their mission, but to Chekov, it seemed like a glorified galactic tour. Sure they had stopped by a few planets, but it was mostly just to refuel. He was expecting at least a little bit of excitement. It was space. The final frontier.

Suddenly a loud screech was heard throughout the bay, coming from the elevator. A single pale green hand shot out through the metal doors, and began to push them apart. Soon a whole body was revealed through the ever growing crack. It seemed to be an extremely disheveled woman. Once she had pried the doors apart with only her small hands, she strutted over to the Captain twirling a wrench in her hand.

"Hey, Kirk. Mr. Kilt-for-brains just wanted you to know that there might be a little problem with the elevators, but I wouldn't be too worried about it," she breathed out. "I'll have it fixed before you can say 'warp core'," she said the last part with a mocking Scottish accent, and then hopped back into the elevator and climbed on top of it, and in a blur of red and green she was gone.

After that outburst, everyone seemed to just go on with their duties. Chekov was amazed. She had called the Captain by his first name, openly insulted Scotty, and hadn't even gotten her second stripe yet. Sulu had to shut his mouth for him.

Chekov had never seen this woman before. By now, everyone had already knew everyone (mostly). He had found it very annoying when others didn't remember his name. He didn't know if she was even on the records. He tried to remember her. She looked extremely young, maybe even his age (he had just turned eighteen last month. He didn't really remember the party that much). She must have been from Earth because of her American accent, but she hardly looked like a human. Her skin was a pale green, almost as light as Spock's blush (oh yes, Spock blushed. A lot), and her hair was a deep periwinkle, almost to the point of being a dark blue, and it was cropped short, with her bangs hanging low, windswept on her face. But her face was what really stood out. Her eyes were snake-like, and she didn't appear to have a nose. Her mouth stretched across her face from ear to ear, like a cat from an old book he used to read about Wonderland, however she only ever opened part of her mouth. He found this curious. A line went from the end of her eye into her hairline on both sides, and bordered her striking teal eyes. She almost seemed to frighten him. Oh yes, he definitely would have remembered her. No doubt about it.

He reluctantly went back to his duties, which consisted of doing absolutely nothing. However, he soon realized that the outlandish girl kept making an appearance in his head. She was like remembering something that you had already forgotten. He played with the idea of looking her up when a loud bang was heard. And this time, it wasn't the elevator.
