I've come to the realization that there is little to NO slash of NuKhan and I simply cannot help myself; I know Sherlock fans love Benedict Cumberbatch, but my first encounter with him was in the Star Trek Into Darkness so I have no choice but to slash him. 'Tis in my DNA and I am currently working on finishing my other Star Trek fic as well so I can actually end one story before I start another! I hope you all enjoy this story… I will probably make it a long haul and it MUST be rated M because I am incapable of writing K+ stories and you all want to know what it would be like to sleep with Khan anyways… Contains major spoilers from new movie so if you haven't seen it, add to your favorites and if you don't give a rip about spoilers, then by all means… go ahead! And I could NOT contain the clearly evident Vulcan glass kiss of Spirk… Even in TOS it STILL happens! This fic is going based EXACTLY off the movie, but with my interpretation on it, emotions and various POV's (point of views) and what continues to happen after as well. (Since I am getting the after-comics as well!)
Thanks PrincessJim4.0 for beta…
Dedicated to Mel Sales, Caroll Anderson, and Suzzane Fields for patiently waiting!

Kirk POV
Spock was on the verge of death and Kirk knew it… He didn't give a shit as these odd white creatures on Nibiru chased them relentlessly. Arrows flung through the air and zipped past him.
Bones was farther away and he was more worried about Jim than himself. The rumbling of the volatile volcano shook the ground beneath him.
McCoy POV
"They're trying to kill us Jim!" Bones shouted, terror clearly evident in his voice.
Jim had stolen a scroll, but it was done for a reason, to drive the natives from the volcano. Then Spock could reverse everything with the cold fusion device.
"The beach is THAT way!" Bones shouted as he flailed his arm towards the right.
"I hate this!" He knew they were going to have to jump… He just knew it. Why would his best friend ever listen to him, he had no idea, but reality started to slip from his mind the closer they got to the edge.
"I know you do!" He could hear his Captain say…
McCoy almost shouted Dammit, but before that, the world was in front of him and the sky was beneath his feet.
He felt like passing out… His arms flailed to grab at nothingness as they impacted the surface of the water…hard.
Bones was thankful for the special boots that jetted them through the water, but Jim owed him for this one…
They couldn't make it to the enterprise any sooner, and Bones was thankful for that. They tore off their robes sloshing with water and ran through to the bridge and left watery footprints in their wake.
"Spock!" Jim shouted as Chekov shouted their presence on the bridge.
Spock had activated the device and began to inform them thusly.
"I've activated the device Captain. When the countdown is complete, the reaction will render the volcano innerve." Spock stated on his fried communicator.
"Yeah its gonna render him innerve!" McCoy shouted; none of them were ready to say goodbye, not even McCoy.
Just then… arguments went all across the bridge about whether or not they could beam Spock out, but the Enterprise wouldn't be able to withstand the heat of an active volcano was beyond Scotty.
Just then Scotty saw an enormous fish with huge soulless eyes blurred past the navigation screen.
He paused, but considered the fact that the Enterprise couldn't withstand the heat of an active volcano and the pressure beneath the water was taking its toll on the ship. The Enterprise could withstand the vacuum of space, but the pressure psi beneath the water was beginning to become too much.
Spock was determined not to go against the prime directive.
"In the attempt with a rescue mission we would revealed to the indigenous species."
Nevertheless, Kirk was shouting at Spock, "Nobody knows the rules better than you Spock, but there's got to be an exception!" Jim's fear was evident, but he was trying to keep it together.
"Such action would go against the prime directive…" Spock continued until McCoy interrupted.
McCoy's chest heaved in response; he was getting frustrated with all this logical shit and Spock needed to come back so McCoy could yell at him; for all their sakes.
"Shut up Spock we're trying save ya dammit!" McCoy spat.
The enterprise is far too large to kept quiet and stay hidden, even as it rose from the water's surface.
"Doctor, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few." The Vulcan continued.
"Spock we're talking about your life here!" Kirk's ocean blue eyes blazed with emotion.
"The rule cannot be broken-." Were Spock's final words before cutting out; the intensity of the volcano seared through his communicator.
Stillness bore through the entire ship as he cut out. Uhura gasped and started to freak out, even though they were no longer an item, everyone on board the ship all cared for Spock.
Uhura switched and pulled buttons and levers to get him back online.
"Spock what would you do if it was me out there?" Kirk asked, mainly to himself, but his best friend was there with him.
"He'd let you die…" McCoy stated as-a-matter-of-factly.
Spock POV
He felt the blast of the volcano as heat poured over him. If this was the end, he'd refuse to let his emotions get the best of him; he wouldn't allow the fate of his home planet to get the best of him. He wasn't ready to die or give in, but there simply was no choice in the matter for himself. He gave no thought of his crew simply because he didn't want to die in vain and he would be saving an entire planetary species in the process. With arms open, he accepted his fate.
Just then the Enterprise emerged from the watery depths out of Nibiru's ocean, completely ignoring the prime directive.
The countdown was at 0:00 and Spock could feel the rings of energy as he was beaming aboard the Enterprise.
The indigenous species very much indeed saw the massive star ship. With the knowledge of barely inventing the wheel, this was a revelation. Their large black eyes stared in awe… The NCC 1701 USS Enterprise tore through the Troposphere of the planet to the volcano where the cold fusion device triggered and it was suddenly snowing, they had been saved by this strange vessel.
McCoy POV
He ran with Kirk in the lead…
"Spock are you alright?" Kirk asked with a huge smile on his face.
"Captain you let them see our ship." Spock plainly stated as his black and bronze metal suit blasted steam from his form and into the air of the cool air of the Enterprise.
"Aww he's fine…" McCoy snarled as the Vulcan didn't seem to care if anyone aboard the ship cared for his life.
"You hear that Spock? You just saved the world." Kirk gave a knowing smile.
"You violated the prime directive…" Spock wasn't finished, but McCoy didn't want to stick around for this shit.
"Come on Spock, so they saw us, big deal?" Kirk stated. He actually found it kind of funny. Spock's blank expression made him want to laugh.
McCoy didn't find the notion funny for either side. Spock's expression did show a bit of surprise, for once and that was speaking volumes…
McCoy, though he didn't express it at the moment, was very glad to see Spock alive, but probably not as much as Jim was at the moment.
The Nibiru species saw this alien-like ship emerge from their ocean and they were bowing to the greatest technology they'd ever seen in a thousand lifetimes. Their elders drew it in the red sand of their planet as they all began to worship their new God.
Kirk POV
Jim knew they were in trouble, he just didn't know how much. He wore they grey Captain uniform with pride and he even admitted, Spock made the hat look good. He clapped in the shoulder and knew they'd all be okay since he happened to lie his ass off in the Captain's report for the benefit of his crew.
That is… until Admiral Pike started asking Kirk to talk more about the volatile volcanic eruption on the planet.
"Maybe it was sir, but I didn't want to trouble you with the details." Kirk smiled as he stated.
He should have noticed Spock's eyes dart back and forth for a split second; he didn't know…
Pike was angry and upset with Kirk and very quickly, the smile faded from the young Captain's face.
"You could have forgotten to mention that the volatile volcanic eruption didn't take place since Commander Spock deactivated a cold fusion device that halted the eruption whilst the entire planet that has just barely inventing the wheel, happen to see a star ship rising out of their ocean. That is pretty much how you described it Mr. Spock is it not?" His tone was rising.
Kirk looked in disbelief towards his First Officer.
"You wrote another report, why didn't you tell me?" Kirk's vast blue eyes darkened.
"I believed that you would incorrectly assume and be truthful in you Captain's log." Spock stated in his very stoic Vulcan expression.
"I wouldn't be if I hadn't saved your life." Kirk stated.
"A fact in which I am immeasurably grateful for and the fact that I felt it necessary to take responsibility for the actions." Spock stated.
"Yeah and it would be so noble as to say you are also throwing me under the bus…" Kirk was pissed and wasn't hiding that fact either.
"Is that a derogatory reference?" Spock's brows furrowed as he tried to understand. Just then, Pike stood up. He began to go on a tangent about what Starfleet was supposed to do and its missions were about exploring space and not interfering with life on other planets as they had just done in their latest mission.
"Had the mission gone according to plan, the indigenous species would have never have known of our existence." Spock was actually defending Kirk now, but neither must've seen it in that fashion.
"That's a technicality..." Pike snapped.
"I am Vulcan… We embrace technicality." Spock brow raised.
"You giving me attitude Spock?" Pike snorted.
"Im expressing multiple attitudes sir." Spock mused. "To which are you referring?"
"Out Spock…Your dismissed Commander." Pike shooed him out of the room before any more damage could be done.
Kirk's face went sullen, but he never expected his Vulcan… his friend to do such a thing. After all they'd been through and Nero for that matter.
He had nothing to say as Spock left the room, leaving him as silent as ever.
Pike talked about how much a pain in the ass Kirk was and the young Captain accepted. He never wanted Spock to take the responsibility for his actions, but the Vulcan gave him no damned choice in the matter. He knew he lied and Pike was practically throwing it in his face. He even went as far to make Kirk feel bad and that there was greatness in him, not because he acted as if the rules didn't apply to him.
Pike went on to get angry about them and saving a planet and changing its destiny and that he would never do such a thing or put his First Officer in that type of jeopardy in the first place.
Pike was fuming and Kirk's fuse was going down as he mentioned the fact that he'd never lost a single crew member on his ship since he'd gotten it. Pike attacked him and stated that it was him jumping with blind luck with his entire crew.
"You're playing God." Pike ended his angry rant.
Kirk thought that last statement was taking it a bit too far, but he wasn't about to fight; in fact, he was pretty tired of it.
"It has been brought to Admiral Marcus' attention and a meeting for which I was not invited to." Pike declared.
"You know what's going to happen…" Pike finished.
Kirk stopped, his heartbeat pounded in his ears and his eyes when wide…
No! He thought.
"They've taken the Enterprise away from you…" The Admiral said. "They've sent it back to the academy."
Kirk's world went black as his mind could barely ascertain and absorb that god forsaken information.
"Admiral I made those decisions based…" Kirk tried to fight, but the Admiral cut him off.
"I can't!" Pike snapped. Kirk never wanted to give in or give up the Enterprise. It was his life, his soul, the very essence that drove him and lead to friends that would've lasted throughout his entire life but the entire thing was ripped from his very hands…
"You've never taken responsibility for anything and you don't respect the chair." Pike ended.
"You know why?" Pike stared him practically into his blazing soul, "Because you aren't ready."
The words burned Kirk deeper than he could've ever imagined and he couldn't think of any given response.
With that… Kirk left.
Kirk was going to get shitfaced as God help anyone that ever tried to stop him. The Enterprise was the only home he had left. His supposed house back in Iowa was no longer considered home since his mother fell into a loveless marriage since she knew she'd never find anyone that could ever come close to George Kirk and they somehow all knew that. Sam, his older brother, was driven away and Kirk stayed for as long as he could until greatness called upon him; Pike had called upon him and now this…
This…nothingness… Kirk could hardly stand it as he stood behind the tall and very empty building. The world seemed suddenly empty and Kirk could even begin to bear it and it was the one he called his friend that had destroyed everything. Kirk wanted to hate him, but the fact that he was even alive was Kirk's doing; he wasn't about to make him miserable yet Kirk disbelieved that Spock would ever show that.
Kirk couldn't even begin to cry, not with all the rage in every strand of DNA within his body. He looked up and saw his CMO and couldn't say a fucking word.
"Hey Captain…" Bones sighed as he stepped awkwardly close to his best friend and leaned closer to hug him. Kirk couldn't do or even say anything in order for his friend to know anything that had happened.
But somehow… he knew and Kirk fell into his embrace and sobbed so hard that tears couldn't form. His eyes blurred a reddish hue and he knew he was crying, but the rage kept the tears from falling.
"I know Jim… and I'm sorry." Bones could only guess but he knew Spock would turn his back on everyone that did everything in their power and broke many Starfleet regulations in order to save him.
"I don't know how or why he did this." Bones didn't want to mention any more of this and he knew the only thing that could help…
Ok so here's the beginning of something great and VERY smutty… like 5,000 words of pure smut lol. But various couples will be involved… I screamed when I first saw NuKhan and the audience looked around all funny. I couldn't help myself as I clutched my STID Khan cup closer…
It was an amazing fun movie, but most of this story focuses on AFTER the film, but I wanted to put my parts within the story. So I hope you all enjoy this new story of mine… I had tons of fun writing it. Hope you like and review because there is MUCH to come… Innuendos welcome! Khan has plans and falls for someone he never expected to love… If he was even capable of that…
Or is it beyond him?
