Hello Everyone! Nice to meet you! I'm a newbie to Star Trek fandom, only seeing the movie and loving it (though my dad used to watch the Next Generation when I was a kid, which I found boring...ah sorry!) I'm also a huge fan of Spock/Uhura and have been wanting to write a fanfic regarding them and the the whole team for aaages, but- as I'm a Star Trek newbie, I'm a bit worried about characterization and terminology, if I get something wrong please let me know (^_^)
I sincerely hope you enjoy my story and will please review! Thank you and have fun!
Ghosts.
Prologue.
She couldn't move.
The sweat dripped down her back, her pupils were dilated and she could hear her breath coming in deeply but sharply, painfully. She knew all these things, and yet she was detached from herself as if it couldn't be happening. Yet deep down inside she knew, terribly, horrificly, that it was.
'No…' she heard somebody say, perhaps it was her, it was a woman at least 'NO! YOU CAN'T DO THIS! NO!'
Another voice, male this time, definitely not hers 'DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY SHIP! IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO IT, I SWEAR IT'LL BE THE LAST ORDER YOU EVER-' a thud, and grunt of pain, loud clattering noises… and the other voice was silenced.
'CAPTAIN KIRK!' Yes, there was no mistaking it was her, the high shriek, the fear, the desperation in her voice- it was something she knew she would come to relive over and over again.
What could she do, what could she do? How could she stop it? She had to! She had to do something, anything.
'It is too late for you now, we have had enough of your foolish attempts at peace, at your laughable threats. We no longer need you or your precious ship. You are unnecessary, and shall therefore be eradicated.' a deep hissing voice echoed in her head, causing her to shriek in pain, fall to her knees…she had to stop this happening…she had to stop it!
She couldn't stop it.
She watched as her friends, her ship, her home…the only man she would ever love- dissolved from existence right before her eyes. No echoing blast, no explosion, nothing that would denote the fact that her whole life was being destroyed. It should have ended differently, if it had to have ended at all. The Universe should have been ripped to shreds, explosions should have roared throughout space, thunder and lightning should have crackled, shattering everything that ever lived and stopped anything from living ever again the very second that the Enterprise was eliminated.
Her heart may had not left that ship…and now she knew she would never get it back.
They had vanished.
They had all gone.
They were all... dead.

The prologue is short but the other chapters will be much longer, and there's a reason why it's in italics! Thank you for reading, please review! (^_^)
