Star Trek (2009):
Better Together
by Mirwalker
Prologue
I wake to a fog.
Spinning.
Cold.
Falling!
Tumbling.
Where…?
Impact.
Adrenaline rushing.
Another impact.
Beeps, and a hiss.
Warm air. With smoke. Alarms. And shouting.
Screams.
What's happening? Where am I?
Stumbling free, I catch myself on the nearest solid structure.
Across it, an unfamiliar man in red looks surprised, terrified. Not just of me. He's holding a… a weapon, beginning to raise it.
The room rocks, begins to spin again.
Am upon him before he can react. Not dead; I may need answers.
Through a frosted window I see her; and beyond, so many others.
But, where is he?
No time.
Save her. Start with her.
Better. Together. We'll make it. We must.
