Star Trek: Never Let Me Go

Summary: After Nero's attacks in Space, the Enterprise returns home until her next mission. Upon arriving back to Earth, Kirk finds that he has a long-lost relative, who he's never met. Will finding out that he has a Sister he's never known, impact his future as Captain of the U.S.S Enterprise?

Rating: T - For now. (See Warnings.)

Warnings: If you have not watched the 2009 Reboot of Star Trek, you won't really be spoiled. HOWEVER, there are some themes in here. It's major Angst, and there's a bit of Self-Harm in this story. I have rated the story as T, but that may change, if given indication that I should change it.

Beta: I'm actually looking for someone who would like to be my Beta. PM me if you'd be interested, please!

Pairings: Bones/OC, Spock/Uhura

Disclaimer: I own nothing but Jim's sister (whom is to be announced next chapter).
Title is the same song from Florence And The Machine's 'Ceremonials' album.

The song, 'Never Let Me Go' released back in October 2011 on their newest album to date 'Ceremonials' around the same time I lost my Grandmother and shortly after, my Grandfather. For the longest time, I could not stop listening to it, because it was the only song that could make me cry, and I needed a good cry a lot of times. I still cry. I'm crying now. I miss them so much.

So, I apologize in advance, if some things may not make sense. What a way to start writing fan fiction again, huh? Yes, I haven't written any new material since maybe 2010? I have been working on my book (soon to be published) called "Random Acts of Kindness". Check out the Facebook page on my FF profile.

Okay - it's time we 'Boldly' went. Enjoy! Feedback is welcomed. Please be kind when giving criticism. Thanks!


The Enterprise was docked for repairs as well as other important things - Graduation, Promotion of many Starfleet officers, a memorial for all of whom had perished in Nero's attack - and countless of other non-important things.

"This is your Captain. We will be arriving at Earth in approximately five minutes. As you are all aware of your orders from the Admirals at Starfleet, there will be a memorial for all of those we have lost in the attacks, tomorrow at 0900. Many of you will be back aboard the Enterprise, and many will not. Whatever the outcome, I wish you all luck in your future endeavors and God speed. Kirk out."

Captain James T. Kirk, sat in his chair, observing his officers around him. Sulu, Uhura, Chekov, Spock, Bones. He knew they would be back aboard the Enterprise when they left Earth after the much needed repairs. That made him happy, as he felt they were his family. The family he never had before. The family in which he would do anything for.

"Approaching Earth Space Dock in three minutes, Sir."

"Aye, Sulu. Uhura, have you checked us in?"

"Yes, Captain. Ten minutes ago."

"Good."

"Keptain, iz et twue dat ve are getting a new tactical offecer?" Chekov asked, curious.

"Yes it is, Mister Chekov. In fact, the bridge crew will be meeting with a few Admirals and our new officer. Actually, she will be the only female tactical officer."

"Fascinating."

Kirk turned to Spock and smirked. "Sure is, Spock. Can you imagine, a female tactical officer?" He grinned.

"Down boy." Uhura said, rolling her eyes.

In return, Kirk stuck his tongue out at her in response.

"Sir, if I may remind you, as Captain of this vessel, it is illogical to behave as such."

"As such, what?"

"Juvenile? Hell, an infant?" Bones emphasized Spock's point sarcastically, adding in a eye-roll for good measure.

"Precisely."

Jim shook his head. "Oh come on, gotta have some fun, lighten up. We've been through hell and back."

"You can say that again." Bones said, crossing his arms.

"Captain, we are now docking."

"Aye, Sulu. Uhura, please report to Starfleet that we're home."

Uhura nodded.

"Ladies and Gentlemen of the Enterprise. Welcome home." Kirk reported over the ship-wide comm.


After all the lower crew (cadets, etc) departed the Enterprise, the senior crew (mainly the bridge, whatever tactical officers still onboard, doctors and nurses) followed in suit.

"Spock, can I see you for a moment?" Jim asked Spock, just outside the docking station back at Starfleet.

"Yes you may, Captain."

"Jim. I'm not the Captain now. In fact, I'm sure that the Admirals and Captain Pike will want to hand her back off to you, or maybe someone more capable than me."

"I decline Captaincy. I feel better suited for other things."

"Regardless. I… uh… I need to apologize."

"For what, may I ask?"

"While I can't exactly tell you why I did what I did, I apologize for my actions on the bridge the other day. I also am really sorry for the loss of your mother, and Vulcan. I know you feel a great deal of loss. I'm not pitying you, Mister Spock. I just want to offer my apologies and sincere condolences."

Spock tilted his head in understanding. "While such actions are not needed, they are appreciated. I may never understand why you did what you did, I accept your apology and condolences, on behalf of myself and what is left of my race."

"Thank you. I hope one day, we can serve together again." Kirk said, pausing. "On better conditions."

"I regret to say that I may be leaving Starfleet. My people will need to rebuild and being one of the last remaining of my kind, I have a duty to them."

"I understand. Whatever happens in the future for you and your people, Spock, I wish you luck."

"I wish to pass on the same to you, Captain."

"Jim."

Spock nodded. "Jim. Live Long and Prosper." He said, giving Jim the custom Vulcan salute.

"Live Long and Prosper."

With that, both Captain and First Officer went their separate ways, unknowing of their futures.


Aye, lemme know how this first chapter was. Please? XO.
