Thank you to Trekkie101 and Enigma1910 for reviewing "Reflection." I appreciate that. I can't say when the next part will be out but if I get reviews, it just might encourage me. (Hint, hint.)
Prologue
"What happened Dad?" I asked, short of breath.
"You need to get out of here now Egypt." My father said, pulling me toward the ship headed for Earth.
"Why?"
"Just go!"
I felt him push me into the ship. There were so many people around me and I felt myself being pushed and jostled. The door closed and many people outside screamed. Someone pulled me out of the crowd and into a room. It was a guest quarters and the one who pulled me in stood in front of me.
He wore a Star Fleet uniform and the four gold buttons on his collar signified the rank of captain. He had short, curly brown hair and eyes to match. His features were long, and he had the look in his eye as if he had a surprise planned, but didn't want to reveal it quite yet.
"Thank you." I said, looking into his eyes.
"T' was my pleasure," he bowed. "You are Egypt Picard, I believe?"
"Yes, how do you?"
"I know many things." He began to circle me like a vulture. " I also know that great trouble awaits you."
"What are you talking about? Who are you?"
"My name is of no importance, but if you really must know, it is Q."
"Q?"
"Yes, now I suggest you prepare yourself, for the road ahead is a very bumpy ride."
With that he snapped his fingers and disappeared. I blinked and rubbed my eyes. But wasn't he... My train of thought was cut off as the ship shook violently. I stumbled, and landed on the floor. The ship shook again as I tried to get off the floor. When I looked out the window I saw two Romulan ships heading towards us. Then I noticed a planet, and that we were heading towards it.
The two Romulan ships began firing and the ship rocked again, this time more violently than the last. Sirens started going off and I saw the planet coming closer to us. I felt the ship break away from the warp engines, and then an explosion rocked the entire ship. Was that the warp drive? I thought quickly as I looked out the window. All I could see was the planet and it was getting closer at an alarming rate.
I could see the sides of the ship getting red as we entered the atmosphere, and felt the chip underneath me shake. Suddenly, I could see the ground, and we were headed for a mountain. Quickly, I got the to floor and covered my head. There was a loud thud and everything shook before my whole world became black.
