Side Step
vii: broke down angels
Change has come again to you. The time line has flipped, switched—whatever. You're not sure what's different; just that something is. Something has changed, your world is different. How have you changed? Are you the same? No, because you don't know yesterday.
"Captain Reed?" Has time turned you into a captain? It must have. So you turn to the voice. It's Doctor Phlox. A little voice in your head whispers that it's nice to know some things don't change. Phlox does seem the same. He's still happy and all alien smiles. But not right now.
"I'm afraid Mister Sato has left us," he says. You nod because some memories are back. You figured Sato was going to die any day now. He had been sick for so long. Phlox leaves the bridge. You look at Mayweather. You say you are going to the Ready Room and that she has the bridge.
You leave and go to the Ready Room. You sit down in a chair and place your head in your hands. You start to cry. The tears catch in your goatee. First Archer, then T'Pol, then Trip, and now Sato. One by one they all fall down. They're gone. But you know that the time line will change and you'll all be together again. For how long, you wonder.
You'd settle for a minute with them.
