Chapter 1

Cassia stood at the Earth Starfleet Acadamy at the bottom of the giant circler room. It had two rows each had tons of seats. Spread between five sections with two sets of grey stairs leading out of the room the hall was completely full of Cadets of each rank. Cassia stood happily as she had now been promoted to Lieutenant alongside other Cadets like her.

As she stood still in her a red jumpsuit and jacket with a stand collar over a red turtleneck-like sweater; men and women wore pants while some women wore skirts. On both male and female designs, the Starfleet insignia was displayed prominently on the collar of the jacket. On some occasions, cadets wore a red cap with the uniform. Some wore black uniforms they were people who worked there.

They had a sliver badge on the right side of their chest they sat on the edge by the stairs all of the people in red uniforms sat in light blue chairs. The Starfleet symbol which was like a sliver arrow head. Or others say it's the shape of an 'A'. Cassia hated the colour red as it clashed with her ginger hair which had a big white streak on the left side of her head.

She suffered from a condition called Poliosis Circumscripta just like her father did. As she stood in line Richard Barnett a African-American with short black hair and 6 foot 5 inch's tall. With brown eyes and average weight was wearing a silver tunic over his uniform. But she could make out a white shirt collar and that was it. He didn't have any badges but was an Admiral.

He walked up to each Cadet one by one. Putting the single gold band on each sleeve of their uniforms. Plus, the sliver arrow symbol too on the right side of the jacket. Each person had a different symbol in their badges depending what they were going to become. The Science Division people had a circle with two longitudinal lines dividing it. They wore blue uniforms the Operations Division had a single spiral and wore red uniforms.

Cassia had chosen to be put in Science Division it was her favourite subject and one she accelerated in best then the others. She smiled feeling joy within herself. Her heart pounding a huge smile on her pink lips her green eyes bright. She had worked hard over the years trying her best in each subject Science was her particular favourite. They were scientific, medical research and control functions on star bases, abroad star ships, and at Starfleet command.

They specialized in sensors, research, theoretical and physical laboratory work, biological studies, and also as technicians, medics, and surgeons. The other subjects were Operations Divisions also referred to as Engineering Division who specialized in services and military functions on star baes, aboard star ships, and at Starfleet Command. Members of the operations division.

May have specialized in a ship or base service, administration, or military operations, or served as staff offices. Operations officers included engineers, security and tactical, and some service specializations such as communications. Operations division personnel also filled administrative posts as yeomen, personnel officers, and port masters too. This part of the training Cassia struggled in and failed a few times the overwhelming information was too much for her.

The different buttons, levers, wires, talking to people and giving commands to each other. Cassia struggled in socializing with people being a shy girl. She pulled through the tears and pain studding hard all night through the books. And training all day till her body ached all over and her head hurt. She didn't give up her dream of becoming a Lieutenant.

Wanting to follow in her family footsteps her dad being a Captain along with her older Brother Stephen her mum a retired Lieutenant. As he came up to Cassia putting the Science Division badge on the left side of her jacket, "Congratulations Cadet Cassia you been promoted to Lieutenant. Serve the Starfleet proud" she nodded her head at him. As he put the single golden lines on the jacket of her sleeves keeping a straight face.

She saluted him with her left hand as he did it back. Richard then looked down at her legs and frowned at her she gulped in worry. As she wore her black and white long socks again which came up to her thighs. "Lieutenant Cassia please make sure to follow uniform rules from now on" Cassia lowered her hand, "Yes sir!" As he then moved on to the other Cadets.

Squealing in her mind she couldn't believe it she was now a Lieutenant but how was her mum going to take it? She knew her mum didn't like the path she had decided to take when she told her. But that didn't stop her from perusing it. After the last Cadet got there badge they saluted once again, at him. "Lieutenant's you are now free serve the Star Fleet proud" As they all shouted in unison, "Yes sir!" Everyone in the room clapped their hands at the newly promoted cadets.

As they headed out towards the exit they were given their new uniforms. Depending upon witch Operations they were in. Cassia was asked what she wanted and was handed a blue short-skirted dress one short sleeved and two long one. As she preferred long sleeved but females were allowed trousers too. But she liked dresses better she was also handed the black under shirt.

Also told to were black knee-high boots and no more of her socks witch she liked to wear. Sighing at the comment she smirked the men were also handed their new uniforms they had the overt shirt, trousers and the undershirt too. Depending on the operations they were given blue or red coloured. Along with their black knee-high boots too. All of them were handed their new charcoal black standard serviced uniform which was just like there cadet ones.

Cassia put her new uniform into a bag and continued off towards the glass double doors. She walked outside to see the parents' greeting their children pulling them into hugs or taking pictures. Smiling to herself as she watched her heart beating happily she just wished her mother was the same. When she heard someone shouting her name she stopped looking around the area.

When she froze eyes wide in shock it was her mother Beverly gasping as she walked towards her. She wasn't expecting her to be here. "Mum?" She walked towards her shouter then Cassia she had long ginger-blonde hair which came to her elbows. Blue eyes and slightly plump wearing blue trousers and a plain green t-shirt with a black cardigan and matching shoes.

Still wearing her sliver heart shaped locket which had a picture of her Father Gilroy and her older brother Stephen. She pulled her into a tight hug, "Oh I'm so proud of you Cassia! I can't believe it!" Cassia put her arms around her too. Almost hitting her with her bag her heart pounding at her words as she closed her eyes feeling the loving embrace.

When Beverly started to move from side to side Cassia blushed a bright red like her hair. "Mum! your embarrassing me!" Beverly let her go chucking at her daughter's cheeks although she knew her mum meant well. Deep down she knew she wasn't happy. Beverly wanted Cassia to have a normal job like a retail manger or a different career path. She tried her best to talk her out of it even when she failed and came home crying.

From a test or hurting herself saying along the lines off. "Honey it's too much even you know that. Maybe you should do something else?" Cassia knew she was just scared of losing another person she loved. Having lost the man, she married and loved along with her son. Both were Captains and were killed in battle whilst on their 5-year galaxy journey.

Her mum believed their family was most probably cursed after losing both of them. But Cassia didn't believe it as she smiled at her mum as she looked at her sliver badge. "I see you got into the operation you wanted Cassia" Cassia nodded at her mum seeing as how both her father and brother wore the yellow uniform. With a five-pointed star with a lengthened upper point as an insignia on their sliver badges.

They were in the Command Division. Which were only Admiralty, Captain, Executive, adjutants, pilots, and flight controller (or helmsman) as some people called them. Her mum had never seen this badge as they both never went for this division and stayed at Lieutenant's. Cassia was quite happy to be a Lieutenant for now. As they both stood they heard footsteps approaching them Cassia looked over in the direction they were coming from.

Her eyes widen at the person heading this way. Beverly looked over in her daughter's direction it was James T. Kirk he was coming towards them. He was 6 foot and Average built with light brown hair and blue eyes. He was Captain of the USS Enterprise - A. Cassia was hoping that she would be able to join his crew at some point. There father's both knew each other and were best friends since there Cadet days.

George was Kirk's Birth Father but he was brought up with his step father when Kirk and Cassia were born they both grew up together. Although Cassia only saw Kirk as her best friend nothing more. He treated kindly and cared for her he was always there when she need to talk or a shoulder to cry on. More so after her brother died Beverly smiled as he came over. "Hello Mrs. -" But Cassia coughed loudly stopping him she hated her last name with a burning passion.

It was the one thing she resented her mother for was taking her father's last name and having to grow up with it. Although she wasn't picked on growing up the way her names go together she despised it badly. Her mother tutted at her. "Cassia you know you won't be able to hide it forever. Especially now you're a Lieutenant!" Sighing at her mother she knew she was write but still she had manged to doge it.

So, there's still hope, "You know Cassia if you get married to a very nice man you can change your name them" blushing at her mother's words. She knew what she was hinting at and frowned at angrily at her Kirk just chuckled. She looked at him, "Well done Sunshine you're a Lieutenant now which means you get to work with me now!" As he pulled her into a tight embrace.

Cassia blushed her mum seeing her cheeks she knew her mum wanted them to get together. They had known each other from a young age growing up together from school and cadet academy. Kirk always helped her out when she was stuck. But Cassia never felt anything for him other than friendship and trust. Although he gave her a cute nickname and treated her with respect he didn't make her heart pound or give her butterflies in her stomach.

She didn't feel those strong feelings when you meet 'The one' as her mother called it. He didn't make her feel safe when in his embrace his voice didn't make her knees weak. She wanted it to stay as friendship and nothing else. She could only hope that Kirk felt that way too as he pulled away from her. Cassia looked up at him. "So does that mean that your recruiting me as part of you crew?"

Kirk grinned at her which she hoped was a 'yes'. "I just got to talk to Admiral Alexander Marcus and see what he says. Hopefully he says yes" Cassia's eyes lit up at his words her heart beating wildly. Joy spreading through as she gasped this could be her first mission into space. She really did hope he says yes as Cassia and Kirk talked about recruiting her.

Beverly smiled at her she was secretly proud of her. Although she would never say it to her face whenever she failed and came home sobbing in tears. She would say things to try and wheel her of it in hopes of changing her mind. From this silly dream of hers although when she did. Sometimes it was part of her plan others it was not in hopes of boosting her confidence.

So that it would make her more than determined then ever to follow her dream. Beverly knew that it had worked as every night till midnight or more she would find her studying at her desk. In the morning she was asleep with her head in a book which she had rented out from the library. Other times she would hear her alarm clock going off at 5:00 in the morning.

Cassia would leave at 6:00 to go start her training before others. In hopes of getting a more better chance of getting a better grade. For the best experience she needed for information in the finals at the semester ends. Beverly couldn't believe what she watched her daughter go through day in day out. She went all out and put the most in. Then her son and Husband did but the reason she tried to get Cassia to change her mind.

Was because she was afraid of losing her like she did everyone else. She didn't want to die alone in her house. When she was on a 5-year adventure she wanted to go with someone beside her and to see her grandchildren. If Cassia ever had some but more importantly get married like she did. But she knew she couldn't force her. As she smiled to herself watching Cassia laugh she felt her heart beat in happiness.

Holding onto her locket within her right hand. She looked up at the sky, 'You two better watch over her now' Cassia looked back at her mum. As she saw her looking up at the sky whilst holding her most prised possession. She knew what she was doing as a twinge went through her heart. Swallowing the lump in her throat as she held back her tears.

She walked over to her, "Mum guess what" Beverly snapped out of her thoughts as she looked back at her. "What dear?" She cuddled her shocking her eyes wide she looked at the left side of her head. As she whispered in her left ear.

"I miss them too mum I know they will always watch over me" Feeling warmth in her daughter's words as well as love. Cassia moved away as Beverly smiled at her. "So what was it you wanted to tell me?"

Kirk walked forward towards them speaking up, "I'm going to recruit Cassia into my team" Beverly gasped in excitement at his words. Happiness soaring through her although in her heart was sadness at having to let her daughter go. She was scared at seeing her go into the big wide-open space. But she knew she couldn't keep her baby girl forever Beverly smiled at him, "Thank you Captain Kirk" he nodded back.

Before putting his left hand on Cassia's head. She looked up at him confused, "See you tomorrow Sunshine!" As he ruffled up her hair. Cassia tutted at him as he walked off laughing. Beverly just chuckled as she tried to short out her hair mumbling under her voice. "Annoying Bastard"

As they walked back to there home her mum spoke to her, "So tell me why won't you get with Kirk?" Cassia sighed she had told her time and time again the same thing over and over. She was getting fed up with it. "For the millionth-time mum he is a player. He sleeps with girls and doesn't care about breaking their hearts. He just flirts with a girl from a bar takes her home and shags her. The next day he gets another one. He enjoys it he is not looking for long term only a leg over and that's it"

Beverly sighed at her daughter's language she defiantly got that from her father as she smiled to herself. "Yes, but if he meets the right girl that may all change" Cassia sighed as she looked at the floor shaking her head. As her mother opened the front brown wooden door to their house it was a small 3-bedroom house. There mum had yet to down grade it.

Not having the heart to touch all the stuff left behind from her father and brother rooms. As they got inside Cassia replied back, "By 'Girl' you mean me and again for the millionth time no mum!" As she walked off up the large wooden stair case not bothering to take of her shoes before she went up. She came to face her older brothers room the white wooden door still shut.

Cassia had not been in there since her brother passed away. She was only fourteen when he died in action whilst on a trip in space. Feeling her bottom lip wobble as tears started to form in the corners of her eyes. A part of her wanted to go inside and tell him how much she missed him. But she had no way of getting in his room anymore. Not since her mum put a golden padlock on there to stop them.

Cassia had no idea where they key was and had not been able to find it. Her Father's stuff was locked away in the cupboard beside Stephan's room. She hated her mum for doing this as she wanted to be able to mourn them in her own way. But she knew she had to be respectful to her and let her find her own way to cope with it. If this was her way to deal with it then so be it.

Cassia sighed to herself as she felt her eyes go blurry she quickly wiped away her tears. Remembering her dad's saying as she grew up, 'Remember Cassia big girls don't cry' she smiled too herself. Chuckling lowly, she continued to walk down the corridor across the beige carpet. Towards her room which was right at the far end her mother's room at the other end.

With only her stuff inside it since removing Gilroy's belongings. Still feeling mad about what Beverly had said as she thought about her. Cassia slammed her white wooden bedroom door as she walked inside. Her mum jumped at the action and chuckled to herself. "That part of her has not changed since teenage years" Cassia groaned at her as she sat on the double bed kicking of her small high heeled black boots and dropping her bag on the floor with a loud thud.

"Why can't mum just give it a break I don't want to be with him..." Looking back at the door she knew was going to have to apologize for her actions beforehand. But decided it could wait as she laid down after a long day. 'One day I will meet him but just not right now I got better things to do' As she put her hands behind her head and crossed her legs over she looked up at the ceiling staring at the blank wall.

She smiled to herself as an idea popped into her mind she chuckled to herself. "Maybe I might meet him whilst on my trip into space?" Cassia then turned over on to her right side looking out of the window beside her bed. Watching the world go by as she looked at the trees as the green leaves blew in the wind gently. She sighed gently to herself her window did not have the best view.

She turned back over on her back, "I just want to see the big wide-open space that Dad always talked about..." As she closed her eyes and let her mind go. Thinking of the dark space going past all the different planets her Father spoke of. Vulcan, Teenax, Altamid, Khitomer, Parxis and Sherman's planet. These worlds and many more her father and brother had spoken about.

She could not wait to find and discover her own planets whilst out in space. Cassia slowly opened her eyes when Kirk's face appeared in her mind. It went to quickly for her to be one hundred percent sure who it was maybe she was over thinking it. 'Why am I thinking about him... it probably was not him' Letting out a long sigh she smiled to herself, "Nah I won't fall in love it will never happen" as she chuckled and shook her head. She had never felt a real love attraction to anyone and won't let herself not again not after what happened.
