Star Trek is the property of a man named Gene Roddenberry, not moi!

So, now we get a peek into T' Pin's past, and maybe even a member of The Original Series will drop by!

Chapter 14: It's not what it seems!

Soon after the scene disintegrated Spock found he was back in Dovetown. T' Pin looking slightly dazed and T' Pell looking outraged. She only looked Spock in the eye shaking her head, "Why? My best friend." T' Pell stuttered; she looked into that face, that she had learned to love, but now despised. She stuck him with the back of her hand; throwing some of her weight into it. Spock's head flew to the left with the force. Since he's Vulcan, you know she had to have really hit him. "You are …." She stopped and took a deep breathe in, trying to keep calm. "I will come with and help find Lady Amanda, but after that, you two can be alone for good." T' Pell said hands clenched in fists of rage. Turning her knuckles white.

"What's wrong? Did the mind meld fail?" T' Pin asked

"Slut" T' Pell said under her breathe

"Pardon me?"

"Cut, I said cut it out and meld, we need to find Spock's mother."

Spock outstretched his hand to meld with T' Pin. His hand met her face and this time he was standing at the edge of a hole, a giant gaping hole in the middle of a grassy field. He looked up to find his suspicion to be correct, T' Pin came falling about to fall into the abyss. He caught her by the arm, and quickly pulled her onto the grass. He fell to his knees under the weight of another body. He was surprised she didn't scream in terror at the fact that she had just fallen hundreds of feet.

"Are you quite all right?" he asked kneeling next to her placing his hands on her shoulders and looking into her eyes.

"I am fine, but what did you do to T' Pell?" she said grabbing his hand and holding it in her own

"When melding, it is necessary to view a memory of intense emotion. She saw us from yesterday. She seemed to feel much betrayal." Spock said trying to comprehend what was happening, his logic, his mother and now T' Pell were all being taken away at the same time, perfect.

"I believe we will be viewing a memory of yours." Spock said explaining to T' Pin all T' Pell had told him, while he looked around the rainy forest.

"Yes, I remember this place, a few years ago; I stayed on Earth, in San Francisco. I was taking a course studying Starfleet. We went to the headquarters and got to meet some cadets, even Captain George Kirk, and his son James." T' Pin said "Look over there; she pointed to a clearing amongst all the trees. There was a group of Vulcan children around the age of fourteen, all walking around observing the forest. They were led by a man, whom Spock concluded was the infamous Captain Kirk. His hair was a swoop of honey colored fluff. He seemed to swagger, yet he was in control. Spock spotted T' Pin, she looked very much like she did now, just a few years younger. She was having a heated conversation with a young human boy who looked very similar to Kirk.

"So tell me again about why your ears are pointy?" Jim teased the young T' Pin.

"On my home planet of Vulcan, our ancestors needed a way to hear if a sandstorm were coming, as a way of survival, because Vulcan is similar to one giant desert. The result was these super-sensitive ears." T 'Pell said gesturing toward her own ears.

"What a bunch of crap! Is that why you've got slanted eye brows too? "Kirk yelled at her, truly trying to push her buttons. T' Pin just turned to the girl next to her and said

"Quite emotional aren't they?"

"Now, after we get out of the Forrest, we'll see a real starship. Won't that be cool?" Kirk said turning to smile at the children.

"Is the temperature on board the ship lower than that of the planets?" a young Vulcan male asked

"No, it means...Yes; it's colder on the ship." Kirk said looking slightly annoyed.

"I wish I could come see your planet." Jim said turning to T' Pin.

"Why do you wish to view our species?"

"I just really want to see the universe, to boldly go where no man, or woman, has gone before! But I'll probably just stay in America." Kirk said looking sad.

"Well, Vulcan has many resources; our superior intellect would no doubt help your race make advances."

"So what are you saying? That humans aren't as smart as Vulcans, that we're stupid?"

"Humans are very intelligent, but their emotionalism and illogical tendencies, sometimes clouds their knowledge."

"Well, even if it's true, you don't need to rub my nose in it" James said walking away of her. T' Pin stayed where she was as the other members of her class passed her. The scene faded. In a swirl of color and Spock's house appeared around Spock and T' Pin.

He could see his mother, his father and T' Pin. It must be her turn to view a memory. Spock then realized what he was watching. He immediately became tenser. As he looked down the hall he saw himself, younger of course, maybe eight or nine years of age, peeking out his bedroom door, listening to their conversation.

"It is the only solution that will benefit everyone. He doesn't fit in, other children constantly abuse him! He should stay on earth. At least until he gets out of school, so he'll be spared this humiliation." Amanda said trying to reason with her stubborn husband. He just turned away.

"If my son were to grow up around Terrans, he will start behaving like one and not logically. That is unacceptable; the constant tormenting will build character. It will make him a better person later on in life." Sarek said facing forward clasping his hands behind his back.

"Well right now your Son is suffering. Do you know what one of those little brats said the other day? They called you a traitor for marrying me, a human whore! Do you want your son exposed to this for, at least twelve more years?"

"How will it be any different on earth? There the children will make fun of his appearance as well as his Vulcan heritage. How is that any different?" Sarek said raising his voice. The young Spock cowered back into his room and the memory faded.
