IDIC- New World Order

Part 41 "Trust but Verify" PG

Amanda dressed with care. She wanted to appear as human as possible for this meeting. It would not do for the Klingons to realize the long term and family ties Altair 7 had to not only Earth but Vulcan herself. Amanda knew that this could be a beginning of peace between all of their people but only if it was handled with care. She just hoped her distant cousin would arrive in time to help with the talks. This was not going to be easy. Klingons on a good day were and aggressive and dangerous people. She sighed wishing with all her heart that they could become allies. After all they were honorable people. Perhaps in her son's life time. She felt the baby kick and smiled. At least this was one positive. Her son was getting to be exposed to new cultures every day. Even if he was not born yet. Surely that was a good thing.

"Spock you will be a peace maker like your father." Amanda said softly.

"He shall be a guardian like his mother." Sarek said as he came into the room. "Amanda, I have been meditating on the situation. It is wrong of me to interfere in your duties. While I am still highly concerned I will not interfere only offer support as a bond-mate should."

Amanda turned to face Sarek she went to his side and touched his fingers with her own. Her love flowed to him and he sighed. It was worth much to see her smile.

"I will take no risks Sarek. This is the best way to try for peace. Beloved I think maybe the Klingons want this too. However it is new to them so they are stumbling."

Sarek's brow rose and he resisted telling her she was wrong. She was so naïve and innocent at times and he hated to see that lost. "That is perhaps possible."

Amanda sighed sensing his skepticism. "Have faith Sarek. Peace and understanding must begin someplace. Surak said cast our fear."

"He did not say cast out caution however. We will be cautiously optimistic wife. What was it the great human leader President Regan said "Trust but verify?"

Amanda nodded and decided that was the best she would get from her mate. She sighed and knew she agreed. Not that she would tell Sarek that of course.
