Sarek and Amanda will appear latter on in the work as will Spock.
Disruption of Routine G
Part II
Amanda sat under her maple tree and wept quietly. She reflected over the days events and knew she made the right choice. Spock had to know at least one of his parents was there for him. Spock had left for the academy and there had been a horrific row with Sarek. He had cut his son off and even now her heart ached for her beloved son. She had given him his birthday gift and hoped that in time he would understand that she supported his choices even if she did not n necessarily agree with them. Star Fleet was not a place she or Sarek ever wanted Spock to serve in. That origination had did little over the years to endear itself to either her or her mate. Yet she could understand the reason Spock wanted to try this path for a time. Spock had always been under such pressure her on Vulcan. He had never been free to simply be Spock. He had always had to be Spock Son of Sarek and Grandson of Skon And T'Lara Great Grandson of T'Pau heir to the house of Surak. He was royalty and he could never forget this. Many judged him for being her son as well. She sighed. He had tried so hard to be Vulcan he had never learned to embrace his human side. Now he wished to Explore it so, he had to leave. Star Fleet offered the perfect chance to do just this. He would spend time on Earth at the Academy and then he be away exploring the galaxy like his favorite Aunt T'Pol. It was classic run away to see to see the world. It was such a human reaction that it almost made her smile. Yet her son would be far away for a long time and this was very hard to bear. Added to this pain was the fact that Sarek Damn him was being a stubborn fool. He might say his actions were logical a way to show his son he disapproved but , Amanda had never seen Sarek so emotional. Of course Spock did not see this. He never really saw his father as an emotional being. Sarek had long ago perfected the Vulcan mask and his son worshiped the ground he walked on and never tried to see past it. So Amanda sat under her tree and cried. She did not wish to fight with Sarek and knew if she saw him now she might well say something truly hurtful. In this case it was far better for her to cry alone. Somehow it seemed their lives and very routines would be forever disrupted.
Spock bordered the earth transport. He was face was a perfect Vulcan mask. He had taken his leave from his mother and that had hurt. Her pain always cut hum deeply. He looked out the window as the ship slowly left orbit and he took a deep breath. Somehow he knew that it would be a long time if ever before he saw his home world again. He regretted he had disrupted his parents lives. Perhaps they would have been better served never to have had him? He turned away and headed for his cabin he did not wish the humans to see his clear emotional pain. He was still Spock son of Sarek and while he could not follow the path his father set out for him neither would he reflect poorly on his training.
