A/N: Okay guys! I decided to ga ahead and upload this Ch. Now it is a bit far fetched in part of it, (you'll see), but then again, so is Star Trek. And to answer a question I got, Susan has these visions for a reason, she's seeing her life from another time, because her timeline has changed. Just thought you all should know that.
i own nothing except Susan Jones, Cassie Moore, and the U.S.S. Cebterville and her crew.
Ch. 5
When I opened my eyes, I was still laying on the floor. "ouch" I said moving my hand to my head as I slowly stood up. I looked around the medbay. No one was around, including Bones. I pulled my com out of my boot.
"Jones to McCoy." I said blinking a few times to regain my blurring vision.
"McCoy here." the voice came back.
"Where are you?" I said walking towards the turbo lift.
"Aww damnit I forgot you were there! The bridge. Ya better get here quick. We could use some authority." he said.
"Well thanks for the floor bed." i said pushing the button for the bridge. "be there in a few." I said closing my com and placing it back in my boot. That must have been a dream. right? When the elevator stopped on the bridge, it was chaos. I quickly hurried any thoughts I was having away.
"We have to go after them! We can't just let them die!" yelled Uhura. Her and a young Lieutenant were standing in the middle of the bridge in mid argument.
"Lieutenant Commander! Its about time ya joined us!" yelled Bones a bit mockingly. I looked to him a bit annoyed.
"Yeahh. Right." I said walking towards the madness. "Both of you calm down what's the problem?" I asked.
"Spock and Kirk are aboard the Romulan ship. We lost communications with them. I say we go get them now. If we don't they die along with Captain Pike." finished Uhura. I looked to the young Lieutenant.
"I think we should stay put. If we put this ship in danger, we could lose everything." she said a bit annoyed. I looked to the people around the bridge. The worried looks on their faces were obviously conflicted.
"I've got a better idea. Chekov, would you be able to calculate the amount of time it would take before Spock and Kirk complete their mission?" I asked turning to him.
"Already done ma'am. It is a ruv calculation, give or take a few minutez" he said through his thick Russian accent.
"how much longer do you think?" I asked a plan formulating in my head. "avout 93 seconds." he said.
"And how long in warp would it take to get to their location?" "Avout 13 seconds." he said smiling a bit.
"Arm phasers and start a countdown for 80 seconds." I said sitting in the captains chair. "Sulu is warp ready?" I asked looking to him.
"Ready at your command" he said typing in a few commands. We watched the clock carefully. 3-2-1 the countdown ended
"Lets go" I said Sulu pushed the lever all the way down. 13 seconds went by fast. When we arrived there it was one hell of a scene. Spock was in a much smaller ship. He was on a collision course with the Romulan ship. There were dozens of green missiles hurtling toward him.
"Aim for their Missiles!" I yelled.
"Aye captain!" yelled a few members of the crew.
"Enterprise Now!" we heard over the com on the bridge. It was Kirks voice.
"Get them out of there!" I yelled to Chekov.
"Aye Keptin!" he yelled a bit panicked. I watched in front of us as the small ship Spock was on, collided into the much larger ship. We all stood there waiting.
"Woooaaahhh! I've never beamed 3 people, from 2 places, onto 1 target before!" Said Scotty's voice over the com. The bridge cheered. I stood up from the captains chair breathless. I turned towards the turbo lift and walked off the bridge. As I was walking down the hallway, Kirk and Spock were making their way to the bridge. I looked into his eyes, his electric blue eyes. He watched me as we passed each other. It was like a slow motion scene in a romance movie. He paused for a split second when I turned my head to look where I was going, but then kept walking towards the bridge. I turned to look at him again, but he was gone.
...
"Ahh welcome Lieutenant Commander Jones. A pleasure to meet you." said the man in front of me as he held out his hand to me. I shook it and sat in the chair in front of his desk. "I'm Admiral James, And we have a proposition for you." he said handing me a PADD with an open file on it. Inside were pictures of people. Doctors, engineers, helmsmen, navigators, and commanders.
"What's the proposition?" I said obviously confused.
"slide to the next page." he said sitting back in his chair. "Those people, their your new crew. That ship, is yours." he said a smile spreading over his face. The ship was beautiful. Bigger than any of the other vessels.
"What's her name?" I said in awe. "The U.S.S Centerville. She'll be ready for her first mission next week." he said leaning forward. "you want her?"
"Yes of course! But what's the catch?" I said looking up from the PADD.
"No catch I promise, you just have to deal with the whole you're only 22 situation." he said laughing.
"I...i don't know what to say." I said on the verge of tears. "Why me?" I said smiling like a dork.
"Commander Spock thought if there was anyone for the job, it would be you." he said opening a drawer In his desk. He pulled out a small jewelry like box and set it in front of me. I picked it up and opened it. Inside was a new pin. A captains pin. The gold Starfleet shape with a thin circle incasing it. "do you accept responsibility of this vessel and the lives upon it?" he asked. I looked up from the pin.
"Wholeheartedly." I said. I stood up and removed the regular pin from my chest. A few seconds later, the captains pin took over its place. "Congratulations...Captain" he said smiling.
...
"I relieve you sir." said Kirk looking down at Admiral Pike in his wheelchair.
"I am relieved." he said shaking his hand. "Congratulations...Captain." Kirk turned to the crowd. Everyone cheered. He scanned the crowd as if he were looking for someone in specific. His eyes found mine. A look of relief spread over his face when he found my hazel eyes. He smiled, and when he did I saw something. Like the vision i saw on the Bridge. everything around me blurred and it was like I was transported to another time. Not again. Kirk was in his room. He looked older, taller, wiser. He was pacing back and forth. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box. A ring box. He opened it and inside was a small engagement ring. He got on his knee in his empty room as if to practice his line.
"Susan, I love you will you be my-" at that moment there was a knock at the door. Kirk closed the ring box and stuck it back in his pocket. He walked up to the door and opened it. "why didn't you just come in?" he said moving out of the way for a small figure. When she walked into the room I could tell it was me. As soon as I saw myself I was transported back to the room at smiling Kirk. I looked away and pushed passed the officers next to me and up the stairs. I felt them coming...the tears. When I reached the top of the stairs I turned to look at him. The look on his face concluded that he was confused. I turned my back to the Enterprises newest captain and left.
