The emergency light's kicked on and a moment of silence seemed to ring out throughout the whole ship. Amy was the first one to speak.
"We need to get off this ship now,"
"Would anybody like to tell me what the hell just happened," Leonard snapped as he came out of the lift.
"Good to know that, that still works" Kirk muttered to himself.
"Listen these guys you don't want to mess with them," Amy turned to Kirk.
"What we need to contact is the Doctor," Rory advised.
"Right here" McCoy pointed out.
"Hang on the Doctor?" Avery asked. Kirk and McCoy looked at each other wondering who the hell these three were talking about.
"You know about the Doctor?" Amy asked. Avery bit her lip as she realized she may have said to much.
"If we are talking about the same time traveler I'm thinking about, we are at a loss. The Doctor died 22 April 2011 at Lake Silencio in Utah" Spock added in. Amy and Rory looked at each other and smiled.
"Not really though" Amy shrugged with a smile on her face.
"Would someone like to inform the captain on what the hell is going on?" Kirk asked to no one in particular.
"I think we'd all appreciate that" Lieutenant Uhura added. Amy and Rory quickly gave a brief description of their encounters with the Silence not long ago.
"What would their motive be though to attack our ship?" Sulu asked. The emergency lights began to flicker.
"I don't think we have the time to answer that question" Kirk said.
"I guess it'd be best then to do what my great x10 grandad originally said and start to book it out of here," Avery told as she placed her hands on her hips and nodded over at Rory.
"If we can" McCoy muttered.
"I have a crew full of optimist apparently" Kirk told them. Avery chuckled at that. Kirk hit a button on the comms unit and sent a text informing all crew to head to the evacuation pods as quickly as possible. Everyone on the bridge stood up in unison as they headed for the lift. Avery stood to the side next to Amy and Rory and noticed them staring at her.
"You do have my red hair that's nice" Amy said to her.
"And your nose kinda looks like mine" Rory added. Avery just went along with what they were saying. Avery then felt Amy scoot quite close to her and leaned towards her ear.
"He is quite the hottie isn't he" she whispered.
"Who?" Avery asked. Amy gave her a look.
"Don't 'who' me. You know who," she nudged her. Avery moved her eyes to the left a bit towards Kirk and shrugged.
"You are sooo crushing on him" Amy laughed. Avery blushed a bit and pushed a strand of bright red hair behind her ear.
"Is this really the thing to talk about at the moment Grandmum" Avery said to her.
"Oi don't call me Grandmum! I'm only a couple years older than you. And besides in situations like these you need something light to usually keep you calm" she advised. Avery let out a breath and realized it was actually working.
"But Captain, regulations state that-" Spock started to argue as Kirk led him towards the lift.
"Spock regulations state a lot of things that I tend to ignore. I'll be down in just a second" Kirk advised his first officer.
"Ponds" Kirk ordered as he pointed towards the lift. Avery got up from her place and walked to the lift with Amy and Rory behind her. Just as she was about to walk into the lift the doors slammed shut.
"No" Avery gasped.
"GUYS?" Kirk shouted as he and Avery tried to pry the doors open.
"We're good Captain" Uhura confirmed for them. Finally the lights went all the way out. Suddenly the sounds of the engines slowly coming to stop rang through the ship. The only thing that could be heard in the bridge was the sound of everyone's breathing as they tried to only guess what would happen next.
"Hold onto something" Kirk advised them. Amy and Rory grabbed hands as they leaned against one of the desks on the bridge. Avery wasn't near anything that could've been used as a handhold and was swept off her feet as the ship slowly tipped forward and began falling towards the planet Masnachwr. She quickly grabbed around for anything and was caught off guard when something grabbed her. A slight pain ran up her arm at the sudden stop and she looked up to see Kirk holding on to the lower piece of his captain's chair. Avery gave him a small smile of thanks.
"Any idea of what we do next?" Rory shouted.
"I'm working on it" Kirk told him. Suddenly a voice rang over intercom but it wasn't the voice of the Silence.
"Oh Pond's I can't leave you alone for five minutes without the two of you causing trouble" the voice the Doctor said.
"DOCTOR!" Amy smiled at the voice.
"Yes I know it's me! Not very important though because it seems like you're in a big wibbly wobbly timey wimey mess" the Doctor explained.
"OH YOU THINK?" Avery shouted sarcastically.
"My goodness even several generations down the Pond's are still good with sarcasm"
"DOCTOR!" They all snapped in unison.
"Right now here's the plan someones going to have to drive this like an old school airplane there should be a steering wheel under Lieutenant Sulu's desk. Just pull it out and try and put this thing back into balance"
"Why don't you fix it?" Kirk asked.
"Because I'm busy. Now shut up Kirk" the Doctor answered. Avery looked down and saw she was the closest one to the steering wheel.
"Kirk you need to drop me" she said to him. His eyes grew wide at the thought of letting go of her. If he dropped her and she missed she might end up killing herself by falling towards the main window at such a high speed.
"KIRK" she snapped at him. They both looked at each other and gave each other a nod. Avery felt a slight sense of fear as he let go and she free fell for a moment. She angled herself to hit the bottom of Sulu's chair with her stomach. The wind was knocked out of her, but she wouldn't let that stop her as she quickly climbed up and pulled the wheel up with her.
"Alright what do I do now?" she asked the Doctor.
"Well this is the part I always sort of got wrong when I was training with the Wright brothers, but if I'm correct pull down"
"That's good enough for me" she sighed as she pulled it down with all her might she almost thought she was going to break the wheel until finally the ship leveled out. Kirk, Amy, and Rory got up and looked at Avery amazed at what she had done.
"'Join starfleet' they said, 'It's a good experience' they said. Nobody told me I'd have to fly the bloody ship at one point!" Avery muttered as she tried to catch her breath.
"Well, I thought you did quite well" the Doctor congratulated her.
"Thanks" she smiled.
"Now as for our new problem now I can't get on the ship, the Silence have completely blocked the TARDIS's signal and all I can do is communicate"
"How do you think they got out here?" Amy asked.
"My guess is the minute I sent out the message to kill them in 1969 some of them decided to hitch a ride on a time machine of their own" the Doctor assumed.
"But why here?" Kirk asked.
"Because we are ready for our return. For years we have been hiding and now it is our time to show that once again we can change human history" the Silence rang out.
"And what do you plan on changing?" Avery asked.
"The Enterprise is the most popular Starship, we would be showing our dominance by killing the whole crew"
"Well it's too late now because we've already stopped the ship we just need to get her started back up" the Doctor told them.
"Not when we have your ship's Technical Analyst" they answered back.
"Morgan!" Avery realized.
"You human's are so easy to manipulate" they seemed to laugh at us.
"We have to get to her then" Avery turned to Kirk.
"There are many of us and only four of you" the silence threatened
"Well now you're just making it sound like a challenge I'm ready to take on. I don't believe in no win situations" Kirk threatened. There was no answer.
"Avery you have your phaser on you?" he asked. Avery smirked a bit as she reached down into her boot and pulled out her phaser.
"Always keep it on me Captain" she said.
"We can do the rescuing while you guys do the pew pew thing" Rory said as he made gun noises. While searching out on the bridge they found an emergency hatch that contained a latter leading to the very bottom of the ship.
"We'll be back soon!" Avery shouted to the remaining crew in the lift.
"Take your damn sweet time while we do some more bonding in here" Mccoy snapped at them.
Kirk was the first one to climb done the latter. As Avery made her way to go in after him Rory stopped her and then leaned through the hatch and said to Kirk.
"Make sure your eyes are looking down soldier" Kirk gave him a confused look. Rory stuck his head back out he found Amy and Avery with astonished looks on their faces.
"What?" he asked stupidly.
"I have no clue if I'll still have my job after this" Avery muttered to herself as she climbed through and began climbing down the latter. It seemed to go on forever till finally they reached the bottom of the ship. The end of the latter was quite a bit away from the from the ground, so it was a bit of a jump. Avery kicked her legs around trying feel for the bottom till finally she just let go and ended up landing ungracefully in Kirk's arms.
"Erm thanks" she said as she straightened herself up.
"Don't mention it...third time I've done that today by the way" he added.
"And I'm grateful for it" she nodded. They then heard the sound of Rory falling to the ground with a slight thud.
"I could've used your manly arms to catch me at that moment there" Rory mumbled as he got up and helped Amy down. The four of them looked between each other and began there trek down the darkened hallways towards the ships main computer.
"So you think I'm a hottie then" Kirk asked Avery trying to make conversation over what he heard her and Amy talking about earlier.
"No I don't" she lied.
"Your grandmother thinks I'm a hottie" Avery was quiet.
"Your silence indicates that you think I'm a hottie" he kind of sang
"Will you shut up" she snapped as she punched him in the shoulder. Kirk smiled at that. He was about to make a comeback till he saw something over her shoulder. It was a Silence. He quickly kept his eyes on it and shot it where it stood. More of them seemed to appear by the second. Avery pulled her phaser out and stood next to Kirk.
"The main computer is at the end of the dead end we've got you covered" Kirk advised.
"Make sure our lineage of awesomeness doesn't end here" Amy told Avery as her and Rory ran down the hallway.
"See you on the other side if this doesn't go well" Avery told Kirk.
"Same here" he said as the two of them began shooting.
Amy and Rory ran down the hallway as quick as they could to find the main computer and right in front of it was a girl sitting on the ground with her knees up to her chest.
"Are you Morgan?" Amy asked. The girl looked up.
"Thank god someone human" she said as she stood up. Then tears started to form in her eyes.
"I'm so sorry they made me do it and I can't start it up because they'll just make me turn it all off again" she told them
"DIE GOD DAMN IT!" they heard Avery shout as she shot another silence down.
"Trust me I don't think more will be coming back" Rory told her. Avery quickly turned to her computer and turned it on. A bunch of codes and binary's popped up on the screen.
"No" Morgan said as she ran her fingers through her hair.
"What's wrong?" Amy asked not understanding anything that was on the screen.
"Shut it down wiped it all out I have to rewrite it" she said.
"Can you do it?" Rory asked. Morgan smiled to herself.
"I know computer like I know my own name" she told them as she went to work
Finally the last of the silence had been shot down. Avery and Kirk both caught their breath for a moment as the put their phasers back in their holsters.
"Not to bad" Kirk complimented.
"Not so bad yourself either" Avery smiled at him. Suddenly her eyes grew wide and she grabbed Kirk's gun out of his phaser as she shot one last Silence behind him. Kirk turned around shocked at what just happened when he turned back he didn't realize how close him and Avery were to each other. Avery thought they were almost about to kiss, which she wouldn't have minded, till the nervous side of her took over and she pulled away and stuck her hand in the air asking for a high five. Kirk stared at her hand awkwardly and the lights came back on.
"Oh look the lights are back on!" she smiled as she handed Kirk his phaser back and ran towards Morgan to give her a hug.
It took several hours for everything to get back into order but once everyone was back in their places. As soon as he got the chance too the Doctor landed on the Enterprise and picked up Amy and Rory. It almost seemed as if nothing had happened.
"You asked for a high five?" Morgan asked Avery as the two of them started heading to their rooms to go change, since they had finally landed on Masnachwr. Avery just shrugged as a response to her friend's question.
"I didn't know what to do" she said.
"Um you could have kissed him! Have you seen his eyes! They are jolly rancher blue!" she stated. Avery laughed at that. There walk down the hallway was interrupted by a strange wooshing noise. A noise Avery had just heard several hours ago. In front of them appeared a blue police box. Once it had fully materialized, Amy Pond stuck her head out the door.
"I just realized I'm a terrible Grandmum I didn't offer you a trip in the TARDIS at all" Amy said. Then a man in a tweed suit stepped out of it.
"Actually it's my place to be inviting people, but um...as Amy was saying would you like to come for a ride in the TARDIS?" the man asked. Avery was absolutely dumbfounded.
"Oh I'm the Doctor by the way hello" the man introduced himself as he shook her hand.
"So time and space wanna go check it out?" he asked.
"Just one trip?" Avery asked.
"Or more it is a time machine and I do only make offer's to the best" he told her. Avery turned to her best friend.
"Wanna come along?" she asked.
"I actually have a date with Chekhov tonight don't wanna chance it and miss it" she smiled.
"Well you have fun" Avery said as she started to make her way into the TARDIS.
"Hey you! What do I tell the Captain then? That you've gone missing?" Morgan asked.
"I won't be long. I promised I'd buy him a drink tonight anyways" Avery told her.
"So no kiss but a date?" Morgan asked.
"No a drink. Now go have fun sweetie" Avery said as she walked in to the TARDIS all the way. Avery thought after seeing everything she had seen with Starfleet nothing else could impress her now, but the interior of the TARDIS was just absolutely extraordinary.
"Yes I know bigger on the inside then it is on the out" the Doctor smiled as he locked the door behind her.
"Now Rory, Amy I'm thinking our first stop should be a quick visit with Jane Austen and I just period clothing" he told Amy and Rory. The two nodded and headed off somewhere. Avery was about to follow them till the Doctor stopped her and then did the strangest thing. He looked at her scalp and that was when Avery knew her secret had been let out.
"You're not a real ginger" the Doctor pointed out. Avery nodded slowly as answer.
"You're not really a Pond by blood are you" he deduced.
"No" Avery whispered. The Doctor gave her a quizzical look.
"I can't tell you much but just...just make sure that when they are all done traveling with you that they write down their adventures and give them to their adopted son Anthony. Or else their great great great great great great great great great great grandchild is gonna be very confused about what's going on at this moment in time, and won't know the great stories about their adventures with the mad man in his box" she told him. The Doctor nodded at her and ruffled her hair.
"Well then time for an adventure Pond" he smiled at her as he ran up to the TARDIS control system flicked down a switch with a flourish.
Kirk sat down at the empty bar alone tapping a beat to no song in particular. He looked to his side and saw once again the spot next to him was empty.
"Sorry Captain last call" the bartender said to him. Kirk got up and started heading for the exit. Bones met him outside and saw the unhappy look on his friends face.
"I hate to break it to you but I think you got stood up" Bones told him. Kirk lightly punched his friend in the shoulder. He couldn't believe it Avery William-Pond had stood him up.
sorry for all the bad grammar mistakes but I hope you liked it! I might put Avery in Into Darkness but we'll see. Review if you liked it please!
