Run (A Song Fic)
Star Trek: Voyager…
(A.N: This told by Chakotay, in an Endgame Part one point of view, where he's dead and he's looking down on her… I don't own ST: Voy or Run – By Snow Patrol – unfortunately… ='(. Sorry if the Lyric's are wrong... I listend to the wrong one... Leona Lewis's cover.)
I'll sing it one last time for you,
Then we really have to go,
You've been the only thing that right,
In our life time,
And I can barely look at you,
But every single time I do,
I know we'll make it anyway,
In all I've done...
Kathryn looked down at the plaque. She smiled to her self. I had been the one that had been there with her though it all. Now I was gone. I had been there for her when her heart was broken. I never made it home. She had wanted to tell me how she felt, but never got the chance. She could barely look at the plaque now. I don't blame her for never getting back. She tried her best; but still her best isn't enough. I thought we could make it… We tried… but it didn't.
Light up,
Light up,
As if you have a choice,
Even if you can not hear my voice,
I'll be right beside you dear…
I want to tell her to smile… I want to tell her to be happy. I want to tell her not to grieve. But she can't hear me. I can't hear her as well as I used to. I want to stand by her once again. I want a lot of things… But I know deep down I'm stuck. Torn between two people.
Louder,
Louder,
As we run for our lives,
I can hardly speak or understand
Why you can't raise you're voice to say…?
… I'm sorry. I know you are, I know that you are. I knew the day that you lost me things would be different. I could see it every time that you asked… no demanded coffee… that it wasn't a habit any more, it was a homage… especially when you asked for it with milk and two sugars. It was just how I liked it. I remember everything. Down to holding hands as we ran for our lives.
To think I might not see those eyes.
Makes it so hard not to cry.
And as we say our long good bye,
I nearly die…
I miss her chocolate coloured eyes. How every time she set eyes upon me they seemed to melt. I can still hear her shouting at me. Telling me not to say good bye. Telling me to stay. I nearly tried when her eyes told me not to give up.
Light up,
Light up,
As if you have a choice,
Even if you can not hear my voice,
I'll be right beside you dear…
She was talking to me, telling me how things will be different. Saying this is the last time that she'll come visit. She's going on an away mission. That's what they nick named the USS Voyager away mission, the longest in history. What I'd give to stand beside Kathryn again. To feel her skin brush against mine when were falling. To do the whole mission again, but this time I'll be already part of the crew. And not be an enemy…
Louder,

I remember all the times we ran. I remember all the times she apologised for getting us stuck in the Delta Quadrant. But I wouldn't change it for the world. I remember thinking that we would never get home, but I wasn't doubting her. I was doubting the ship; even though after 7 years of living on it. It was a little weird not having to give a report. But as she'd say 'Weird is part of the job.' Kathryn I know that you can't hear me. But I miss you more than ever.
