1The Disclaimers: Star Trek in all its forms and series belongs to Gene Roddenberry and the corporations. I am just borrowing them for this fan fiction and mean no disrespect nor am I making a profit on the work.

This is a Snippet in the IDIC Universe. A brief view of how Amanda was able to be with Sarek. Dr. McCoy makes a startling discovery when he is testing Spock's blood to save Sarek in Journey to Babel. AU because it definitely plays with Cannon a little. Please see IDIC New Beginnings to understand the interaction of various characters. If you have not seen the background story this will make very little sense.

Part 26

Spock's Log

Today has been a most fascinating experience. It is strange that I find Carbon Creek so soothing. While I am loathing admitting to having feeling this place feels right. I am strangely at peace here. The only other place I have felt this kind of connection to is the Forge on Vulcan. It is rather strange given that the majority of people in this small city are human. Mother has said that we are all family and that is why I feel such a connection. I have considered this idea with care and so not believe that is the reason. I have been to San Francisco and our family home there. Yet even with my grandparents I am not this at peace. I care for John and Maria Grayson but they are so very human. I often feel like a stranger when visiting them. It is very difficult to be the grandson they expect. I actually seem more at ease with Harrison and Sara. I suppose that is natural as they never expect me to be more then I am. Yet here in Carbon Creek I feel peace. It is not dissimilar to the feeling I have on board Enterprise. Carbon Creek feels like home. I have never considered that anyplace on Earth could be home. I found my time at the Academy to be most interesting and rewarding but it was simply a posting. However Carbon Creek seems to touch something primal. It like the Fortress on the Forge is mine. Perhaps it is simply because my family was such a deep part of this place. For the first time I think I truly appreciate what being human could mean. I will never leave the Vulcan Way , however perhaps it would be wise to explore the human side of my nature in greater detail. I believe I shall spend some leave time here if an opportunity arises. There is much I could learn from my human kin. They seem very adapt at dealing with Vulcans and other cultures. This would prove most useful in my current occupation. I must admit there is a great deal to explore here as well. Yes I shall return one day and learn more about this side of my nature and perhaps in doing so find an inner peace that so many seem to have naturally here.
