Chapter Eleven: John Harrison Is Captured
After Bones fixed up my head, I walked out and I saw John Harrison. He looked at me in confusion and I stared at him. I followed him to the cell and they put him in. I walked over to the glass and I looked at him.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"You should know," John said.
"I should know? I don't know if you noticed but if I ask you on who you are, then it's obvious that I don't know you," I said.
"Lydia," I looked behind me and I saw Jim along with Bones and Spock.
"Sorry Jim," I said backing up.
Bones grabbed the device already on the glass and he moved it up. It made a hole big enough to put his arm through.
"Put your arm through the hole. I'm gonna take a blood sample," Bones said. John walked over to the glass. He lifted up his sleeve a bit before reaching out. Bones started to take the blood and John started to talk.
"Why aren't we moving, captain?" John asked Jim. I looked up at Jim and he was staring angrily at Harrison.
"An unexpected malfunction, perhaps in your warp core conveniently stranding you on the edge of Klingon space?"
"How did he?" I said stopping mid sentence.
"How the hell do you know that?" Bones asked.
"Bones," Jim said stopping him.
"I think you'd find my insight valuable, captain," John said. Bones finished the process and John put his arm back. Bones moved the device to the side and he backed up.
"We good?" Jim asked.
"Yeah."
"Let me know what you find," Jim said. We started to walk away until John started to talk again.
"Ignore me and you will get everyone on this ship killed," He yelled. Jim and I stopped and I turned around.
"Lydia!" Spock warned.
"Get everyone killed? Get everyone killed? Last time I checked, you were the one who made someone blow up the quarters in London. You were the one who got into a ship and attack innocent people. So you shut your mouth about getting people killed," I said. Someone pulled me back and I saw it was Spock.
"Take Lydia and go back to the bridge," Jim ordered.
"Yes sir," Spock and I walked back to the bridge and Spock looked at me.
"Lydia. You are crying," Spock said. I wiped the tears away and I looked at the floor.
"Thanks for telling me," I mumbled.
Jim came back and I was staring into the space. Jim, Spock, and Bones were talking about the torpedoes until Spock brought up Carol. I sighed `and I turned around.
"What admiral's daughter," Jim asked.
"Carol Marcus. Your new science officer concealed her identity to board the ship. Lydia here knew about her but didn't tell you," Spock said dragging me into this.
"Leave me out of this. I'm in enough trouble already," I told Spock.
"When are you going to tell me that? And how you know her?" Jim asked us.
"When it became relevant. As it just did," Spock said.
"I was going to tell you but we girls have to stick together. Plus she's nice," I said shrugging.
Jim left to go talk to her and I looked up at Bones. He looked at me and gave me a look.
"You are just full of secrets now huh?" He asked.
"Maybe."
"What else are you hiding?" He asked me.
"I don't know honestly," I told him.
I walked over to the engineering room and I saw Chekov there trying to fix something. I walked over and saw a loose screw.
"Hey Chekov," I said picking up a tool and fixing up the screw.
"Lydia. Vhat are you doing here?" He asked me.
"Came to visit you," I said.
"Oh. That's nice of you," Chekov smiled.
"Sir, we need help on the section," someone said to Chekov.
"You're busy. I'll come back another time," I said.
"Oh. Okay," Chekov said sadly. I smiled softly at him before leaving.
