Reality: what a concept
Neptune
The USS Reliant, and two Romulan Warbirds are in a parking orbit in the ‘southern’ region of the planet.
Gary Mitchell stood on the Transporter Deck with Lt. Ferrell. They were preparing to beam over to the Romulan Warbird. First officer Commander Geordi LaForge, who was also the ship’s chief engineer, came into the Transporter room just as Mitchell and Ferrell took their spots on the Transporter pad.
“Here to see us off?” Gary asked the blind Commander LaForge.
“Do you write your own material sir?” LaForge asked with a smile.
“God I hope not,” Lt. Ferrell added.
“Listen,” Gary said to him. “I don’t like how these Romulan ships can just pop up out of nowhere unannounced. Start working on some kind of counter-measure.”
“I will sir. And if I don’t hear from you or Lt. Ferrell in a half hour, I’m going to cause a ruckus. Trust me Captain Mitchell, there isn’t anything more intimidating than a blind man gone crazy with anger,” LaForge said.
“I’ll keep that in mind,” Gary responded with a polite smile.
And then, moments later, both Gary and Lt. Terry Ferrell shimmered away.

Romulan Vessel Prey’ftor
The sights and sounds of another Federation Starship were one thing, Captain Gary Mitchell thought to himself as he, and his science officer, Lt. Ferrell, walked along side Praefectus’alae Gnaeus aboard the Romulan Warbird Prey’ftor. But the sights and sounds of an alien starship were another entirely different animal. The exotic scents, and the darkened green hued lighting gave the ship a very mysterious feel to it.
“I trust this is your first visit to an alien ship?” Gneaus asked of both Mitchell and Ferrell.
“Yes it is,” Gary replied. “I must admit that my world has many question pertaining to some of your remarks to Captain Kirk during his first encounter with you and the Gorn.”
“I’m sure these questions will be answered in due time,” Gneaus said.
As they headed towards the science department aboard the Prey’ftor, Gneaus had to keep his mind focused just incase Mitchell had some sort of telepathy. What Gary Mitchell did not know was the Gneaus was well aware of some aspects of Gary’s mysterious powers, thanks to Gneaus’s ally; Khan. If Gary Mitchell had these powers manifesting inside of him, Gneaus reasoned, it was even more suspicious now since an Omega Particle was also in the same solar system. The odds were too immense to be mere coincidence. Perhaps Mitchell and the Omega Particle, which had so far proven to be difficult to remove from the depths of Neptune’s atmosphere, had more in common than just sharing the same solar system.
“I’m sure my world’s government,” Gary said, “will have some issue with an alien craft in our solar system without our knowing about it.”
Gneaus nodded in understanding as he led Gary and Lt. Ferrell into the science section of the Romulan Warbird.
“Trust me when I say,” Gneaus said, “that our being here is entirely of a scientific nature and with absolutely no strategic value.”
“Of course,” Gary replied with a smile, and not believing a word of what the Romulan said. “I just wanted to be forthright with you.”
“I appreciate the gesture,” Gneaus said. “I think, in time, our two worlds will find much common ground to perhaps, one day, forge an alliance.”
“An alliance implies there is a need for shared protection,” Lt. Ferrell said, innocently enough.
“All in good time,” Gneaus replied. The he changed the subject. “This is our main science lab. You are welcomed to observe my crew,” Gneaus said, motioning to the large science department.
“What kind of science observations are you making?” Lt. Ferrell asked as she observed the monitors. The displays were detailed with Roman numbering and letters, which Ferrell had studied up on, as did all United Space Agency, upon knowledge of the Romulan usage of them when Kirk’s first mission returned. She looked at one of the monitors and then back to Gneaus. “What is an Omega Particle?”
Gneaus was impressed with the humans. They obviously had educated themselves on the Roman aspects of their past. And since the human female felt confident to reveal this fact, it also meant the humans were becoming more assertive. They would make perfect servants in the future, Gneaus concluded.
Gneaus was about to respond when Praefectus fabrum G’atny, the Prey’ftor’s main science officer, answered the question for Gneaus.
“The Omega Particle,” she told them, “is a very rare element in the galaxy. Its properties are hard to define in that they may be affected by forces beyond our space time continuum.”
“Interesting,” Gary said. “So what will do with this particle if you find it?”
“We will remove it, “Gneaus said. “If not contained properly, the Omega Particle could become unstable and destroy this entire solar system.”
Gary and Lt. Ferrell exchanged worried glances.

USS Enterprise
Traveling at Warp Factor Eight, on its way to the planet Vulcan.
Captain James T. Kirk was in his quarters, sharing a meal with Spock. It was the first time that Kirk had been able to really sit down and really meet with the visitor. Spock was eating from a plate of pees, artichokes and what appeared to be Navy bean soup minus the beans.
“I’m sorry I haven’t had much time to spend with you,” Kirk said as he cut into the chicken steak on his own plate. “I’ve been pretty busy.”
“No offense taken, Captain Kirk,” the Vulcan stated.
“Do you have a designation?” Kirk asked as he took in a fork of food.
“I’m afraid that my Vulcan name could not be pronounced with the limited range of sounds your language provides,” the Vulcan said. “Now as for your question about my designation, I have resigned my self to the fact that for now, and most likely for the rest of my nature life, I will go by the designation of Spock.”
“Don’t you think your people will be able to find away to delink the two of you?” Kirk asked.
“The unique nature of the Spock consciousness may preclude that,” Spock said. “I assume by the way you are looking at me that you didn’t consider Spock a living being?”
“Not exactly,” Kirk corrected Spock. “I did know there was something special about the Spock unit. He and I, I mean you and I, oh hell whatever, we have had some quite interesting conversations over the year or so I have interacted with you. And I might add that Guinan has been aware of your uniqueness as well. Perhaps by keeping this a secret between us we have endangered your life now. For that I am deeply sorry.”
Spock looked at Kirk.
“There is no need for regrets,” Spock said as he took in two pees on his fork. “It was I who acted on impulse and forced the Mind-meld, so it is I who must bear the responsibility.”
“Mind-meld... what is that?” Kirk asked.
“My species has the innate ability to touch minds other than our own. One such method is the Mind-meld. We can literally read the memories and thoughts of those we are in contact with. However I must say we only use this ability with permission from those whom we wish to meld with.”
“When you did this mind-meld with Spock, did his knowledge and experiences get passed along as well? Do you remember the Clark/Dennison mission for example?” Kirk asked.
“Yes Captain. Those events are still part of my memory, including several memories and programs that were buffered in a previously unattainable alcove in my matrix,” Spock replied.
“Anything I should know?” Kirk asked.
“It is hard to say. I am still trying to access their meanings and purpose. The Vulcan brain is far more advanced than that of a human, but even still, the memory transfer is being absorbed as best it can. However, I can tell you, that Doctor Daystrom was working on a companion matrix called the D.A.T.A. The aspect of this that will interest you is that the Data brain matrix was later purchased by the late senator, John Gill.”
Kirk didn’t like the sound of that all, but would table it for now.
“I don’t mean to sound like an interrogator,” Kirk said.
“Do not worry Captain Kirk,” Spock said, “you are only acting in a most logical way.”
“Thanks,” Kirk said. “I am not often thought of as a logical person. Anyway; what is it like out here? My world, Earth, is just starting to explore beyond our system. And any advice, or even just basic knowledge of the various alien species we might encounter, would be most helpful.”
“I can tell you that my planet, Vulcan, is a member world of an organization, a Federation if you will, of other like minded worlds that explore the vastness of space for peaceful reasons,” Spock said. “Your world, of what I know of it, has been off limits due to the immaturity of your species. Now that you have attained the ability to explore space on a galactic level, I am quite sure your world will be approached to join. My father Sarek represents my world at the Federation assembly. Perhaps when we get to Vulcan you can meet with my father and he can see to this matter.”
“What can you tell me about the Romulans?” Kirk asked.
Although Spock was quite skilled at maintaining what Kirk would call a poker face, or lack of emotions to others, the mention of the Romulans did cause a minute change in the Vulcan’s demeanor.
“Captain Kirk,” Spock said, “until you are a member world of the Federation, I am bound by one of our most cherished edicts: The Prime Directive. It forbids us from interfering in the natural progression, and maturity, of a non-member world. However, I can state a matter of fact. The Romulans are not a member of the Federation.”
“Can I take from what you just said that by not joining this Federation of yours that the Romulans do not consider the exploration of space as a peaceful endeavor?” Kirk asked as the tone of the conversation turned serious.
“I regret to say that, at this time, I can not answer such questions. I am quite sure that my father can engage in a more official conversation once we reach Vulcan,” Spock replied.
Kirk nodded. “Well,” Kirk said, “I understand. So your father is the Ambassador from your world to this Federation? You must be proud.”
“Vulcans do not apply such layers upon our relationships,” Spock said. “It is what it is, and my father is quite accomplished at his position.”
The two continued to talk about their two very different worlds. And as Kirk listened to this Vulcan, he found himself liking the Vulcan. How much of it was the Vulcan or how much of it was S.P.O.C.K., Kirk did not know.
Kirk also realized that the Romulans, down the line, could pose a problem. Especially if Earth joined the Federation Spock spoke of. How would Earth’s so called cousins, the Romulans, take such an event?

NEPTUNE
Romulan Warbird Prey’ftor
Praefectus fabrum G’atny explained to Captain Mitchell and Lt. Ferrell about the coming launch of their forth probe into Neptune’s atmosphere.
“We have already launched three such probes,” she told them. “This is our forth and final chance to obtain the particle.
“If it is as unstable as you say it is,” Lt. Ferrell said, “why risk removing it? Perhaps it is here to prevent easy access to it.”
G’atny shot Ferrell a look of annoyance.
“I know as a new space faring race,” G’atny told Ferrell, “this kind of information may be intimidating. You must trust that we have much more knowledge and are using it in a way that will best serve us, and in the same process, protect your world.”
Gary recognized a dressing down when he saw one. And he was starting to find the Romulans arrogance too much to tolerate. The anger was starting to grow inside of him.
At Gneaus’s silent urging, G’atny steered Lt. Ferrell away from where Gneaus was standing with Captain Mitchell. It was time.
“Captain Mitchell,” Gneaus said, “I would like to speak with you now about certain aspects of our shared history with your world.”
“Sure,” Gary said. “I’d like that,” Gary added with a smile. Inside of him, the evil wanted to squish the Romulan's head and kill him.
Gary followed Gneaus through a passageway and then into another room. Once they were inside the other room, the lights went out and the room was totally dark. A strange electromagnetic energy pattern, like that of tiny lightning bolts, surrounded the entire room. A piercing pain suddenly erupted inside of Gary’s mind. It was a trap!
Then a small beam of light shined on Gneaus, who stood directly before Gary. It was as if they existed in another reality, just the two of them, and the two guards, in the darkness.
As Gary fell to his knees in pain, two Romulans bounded his wrists behind his back and then they forced him back up.
“What is the meaning of this?” Gary demanded. “This is an act of war!”
“First off,” Gneaus, “your world will soon be ours. Your pathetic defenses will pose absolutely no threat. What was once ours will be ours again, in time.”
“We’ll see about that,” Gary said with a sadistic smile.
“Oh,” Gneaus added, “we are very aware of your unique abilities Captain Gary Mitchell,” Gneaus said with his own sneering smile. “We know you used your mind and altered the course of that comet that crashed into your world. You should know that you’re not the first of your kind we have encountered. So trust me when I say that this kind of enclosure will contain your power.”
“How do you know of my power?” Gary demanded.
“Because I told them,” another voice said from just ahead in the shadows.

NEPTUNE
Two Warbirds and the Enterprise in parking orbit over the southern region of the planet.
Geordi was sitting in the command chair. The waves of energy were pulsating from the planet below, making communications with the Romulans difficult. The transporter locks on Captain Mitchell and Lt. Ferrell were stable. However, in the past fifteen minutes, the Captain’s lock was in a light fluctuation pattern. Scott pivoted the command chair to face Uhura at her station.
“I don’t like this,” Scott said. “We knew there would be signal loss from time to time because of the electromagnetic waves, but this is getting to be too much. Why isn’t it affecting Ferrell’s lock as much as it is the Captain’s? Try hailing the Romulans again,” Scotty told Uhura.
“I still can’t penetrate the interference,” Communications officer Landry replied. “Why don’t we just beam them back and ask questions later?”
“I agree,” Chekov said from the Navigation. “We should just beam them back.”
Geordi thought for a moment. “Alright,” he told them. “I’m going to the Transporter room to beam them over my self. Chekov; you’ve got the Conn.”
Scott hurried up to the Turbo-lift, on his way to the Transporter Room.
--
Praefectus’alae Gnaeus watched as Gary Mitchell, bounded by several restraints, and kept in check by a series of electromagnetic lines threaded over his body, was lowered into the last of the Romulan probes. As Gary was being lowered, he looked over to Gnaues.
“You better pray Romulan,” Gary said to Gnaeus, “that this cage of yours doesn’t fail. If it does, I will kill you,” Gary said with a stern, lifeless look even, on his face.
Gnaeus did not respond to Gary’s warning. The Romulan only watched with ice cold eyes as Gary was lowered into position.
“The female is asking questions as to where her Commander is,” one of the Centurions said, walking over to Gnaeus.
“Kill her, immediately,” Gnaeus said. “I’m quite sure after what happens here we will no longer be polite neighbors with our so called cousins. One less person they can use in war; so much the better.”
The Centurion nodded, and left to carry out his duty.
--
Geordi entered the Transporter room and motioned for the on-duty Transporter technician, and operator, Lt. jg Landis, to vacate the controls.
“Stand back lad,” Geordi. “This Transport may prove complicated.”
“Yes sir,” landis replied. He knew that no one knew how to operate the Transporter Machine better than Geordi Leforge.
--
Lt. Ferrell, with a worried look on her face, stood with Praefectus fabrum G’atny, the female science officer of the Prey’ftor, when the Centurion came through the entrance and walked toward them.
“Could you please tell me where my Captain is?” Lt. Ferrell asked.
In one move, the Romulan walked up to Ferrell, reached around her head, pulled her by the hair, and slammed her head to the table. Then he removed a ceremonial execution dagger from his side, and then in a quick motion, as Ferrell began to protest, cut her head clean off at the mid section of the neck. Her body fell to the ground as blood poured out. And then, suddenly, Ferrell’s body, her head, which was still held by the Centurion, and the Centurion himself, were beamed away.
--
Geordi watched as the shimmering affect cleared. His instincts took over as he saw it the situation correctly, and without hesitation, Scotty took the emergency phaser that was on the wall behind the console, and fired it at the Romulan; killing him.
“Eye for an eye, you asshole,” Geordi said as the Romulan fell to his death.
Geordi knew he could faces charges down the line when this entire situation was investigated by Command, and it would be, but he didn’t care.
Then Geordi slammed his hand on the com switch.
“Red alert, battle stations! Ready all weapons. THIS IS NOT A DRILL!! PREPARE TO FIRE PHASERS!” Scotty yelled.
--
Gneaus emerged from the holding room where Gary Mitchell had been held. The probe that Mitchell was inside of was being prepared to be launched into Neptune’s atmosphere.
“They Transported back the female,” G’atny reported quickly.
Suddenly the Romulan vessel was rocked.
“The Reliant is firing on us!!!,” The Romulan weapons officer reported.
--
Gary Mitchell was in a world of darkness. There was no lighting inside of the probe; just cold darkness. And then the probe was rocked by motion. He felt the energy restraints that were laced around his body fluctuate. And then, in an instant, Gary’s mind reached out.
--
Inside the depths of Neptune’s atmosphere, a life came into being. And in the fraction of an instant when Gary reached out with his mind, the life recognized Gary’s own unique imprint upon the universe and saw it as its own. At last unification had come.
--
The other Romulan vessel, the Vultur, fired its disrupters at the Reliant, and positioned itself between the Prey’ftor and the Reliant, Just then, the Prey’ftor fired the probe, containing Gary Mitchell, into the atmosphere of the planet.
Gnaeus watched on the main screen of the Romulan Warbird’s bridge as the probe entered Neptune’s atmosphere. In mere seconds the probe would release Gary Mitchell into the Atmosphere.
“Keep a lock on Mitchell’s corpse the moment it is ejected into the atmosphere,” Gnaeus ordered the weapons station. “The moment the Omega Particle changes form it will only be vulnerable for a split second.”
“The Warbird Imaris tried this on Triton IV, and it did not work,” G’atny said to Gnaues in a hurried manner. “You may have risked war with Earth for no reason.”
“Challenge my actions again,” Gnaeus said to her, “And your head will be next!”
G’atny knew when to back down, and now was the time.
--
The Romulans were already too late. As Gary was expelled from the Probe, in what the Romulans hoped would a trap in order to catch what they called the Omega Particle, Gary didn’t die. To be sure, he felt his body instantly dissolve. But it was, as Gary immediately found out, just a vessel for what was inside his soul.
In an instant he had evolved to state of life that he could not describe. Everything in the universe was becoming small; infinitely without substance. Gary, or what had once been Gary Mitchell, could feel his existence being drawn to a special place beyond reality. But as the last light of humanity began to ebb from what he truly was, he willed himself to slow the evolution. Slow it just long enough to where he could make the last desperate acts of a being that had known what it was to be human. He could feel the evil inside him grow, and he wanted to destroy; and so he did.
He saw the face of Khan, who was aboard the Prey’ftor, melt into smeared blood, and even though Gary had no substance, and was no longer human, he still felt pleasure in seeing Khan die at last.
The two Romulan Ships exploded, killing all board. Yet, the Reliant was shunted from the exploding Warbirds, pushed aside as it were, as the Romulan ships exploded and the waves of dispelled energy from Neptune lapped over where the Reliant had been locked in a fire fight with the Vultur.
The Reliant was safe; the ship had been spared by the being that was Gary, even though he wanted to kill everyone on board the Reliant as well; yet, he didn’t. His loyalty to Kirk, his friend, wouldn’t allow him. There was just one act to do before Gary Mitchell lost of contact with this reality. He willed time to stop; and it did. With just a solitude thought, for a brief moment, time, through-out the infinite of space, stopped. Gary had one person to visit; Kirk.

The USS ENTERPRISE; nearing the Vulcan System
James T. Kirk was dumbfounded. He had been in his quarters, pouring a glass of water, when the water stopped moving. As he looked around, everything had stopped moving. In fact, the fish that were in his aquarium had stopped swimming. Spock, who sat at the table, was now totally motionless. It was as if all time had come to a complete rest.
“Hello Jim,” Kirk heard a voice say from behind. Before Kirk turned around to face the voice, he recognized it as Gary Mitchell’s. And sure enough, as Kirk turned toward the voice in the main room, he saw that Gary Mitchell stood there; his eyes glowing with an eerie shade of neon blue.

The USS ENTERPRISE; nearing the Vulcan System
James T. Kirk was dumbfounded. He had been in his quarters, pouring a glass of water, when the water stopped moving. As he looked around, everything had stopped moving. In fact, the fish that were in his aquarium had stopped swimming. Spock, who sat at the table, was now totally motionless. It was as if all time had come to a complete rest.
“Hello Jim,” Kirk heard a voice say from behind. Before Kirk turned around to face the voice, he recognized it as Gary Mitchell’s. And sure enough, as Kirk turned toward the voice in the main room, he saw that Gary Mitchell stood there; his eyes glowing with an eerie shade of neon blue.
“What are you talking about Gary?” Kirk asked. “And why are you here? HOW are you here?” Kirk asked again.
Gary looked at Spock, as the Vulcan was sitting at the table frozen in time.
“He will be a good friend for you Jim,” Gary said. Then he looked back to his friend. “All my life I have had this feeling growing inside me, Jim. A feeling of complete evil, that’s what it felt like. At first I thought it was because I was immoral, or just someone with a bad nature.”
“Gary,” Kirk said, “I have known you most of your life. We’ve been friends, we’ve beaten each other up, we’ve helped get each other girls, and you are not a bad person. Now,” Kirk said, “what is going on here? Did you stow away on the Enterprise?”
“No,” Gary said as he walked over to Kirk. He reached out his hands and put them on Kirk’s shoulders. “Jim, I just found out, moments ago in fact, that I am a God.”
“I see,” Kirk said. “Is that why your eyes are glowing like that? Come on Gary, what is going on here?”
“Listen to me!” Gary said, his voice taking on an eerie echoing effect, before returning to normal. “My entire life has been an illusion, Jim. It has only been a façade. Inside of my soul, what ever makes me who I am, there has been the part of something else. Just moments ago I just destroyed two Romulan Warbirds with a simple thought, and saved the Reliant. I did those things Jim, and then I stopped time so that I could come here and say goodbye, and to let you know the truth... the truth about your baby, David Marcus.”
“What truth, Gary?” Kirk asked. “He died on that island with his kidnapper, and Gill,and all those others when the fragment hit the island and destroyed it.”
Gary walked over to the dining table Spock sat at, frozen, and sat in the chair next to the Vulcan.
“Do you remember the day we found out that Garak had kidnapped David? Well,” Gary said, “Khan contacted me.”
“Khan is dead,” Kirk stated.
“He is dead now,” Gary said to Kirk. “He was on one of the Romulan vessels I just destroyed. But listen to me,” Gary said, “Khan contacted me on that day and told me how to find your son. In exchange I had to destroy the island that Gill was on.”
“What are you talking about?” Kirk asked as he too sat at the table across from Gary. “How could you destroy an island? And what does Khan have to do with this, since he was killed up on Mars?”
“He survived Jim, we all survived. I was able to project some kind of force bubble around myself, Chekov, and also, Khan, which I didn’t know at the time.”
“This is part of the evil power you spoke of before?” Kirk asked.
“Yes, and Khan knew I had the power. Somehow he also knew I had the power to re-direct one of the Clark/Dennison fragments, and send it to Earth to destroy the island. I did this in exchange for a picture of Garak so I could find him and kill him and save David. What Khan didn’t tell me was that Garak, and David, were on that island. There was nothing I could do to stop the fragment from hitting the island.”
Kirk shook his head.
“This is all very hard to believe,” Kirk said softly.
Gary closed his eyes and willed the events and memories into Kirk’s mind. Kirk saw it all, including the Neptune incident with the Romulans.
“You killed my son,” Kirk said softly. “You bastard; you killed my son,” Kirk said again.
“I know Jim, and I am so sorry.” Gary said.
“And now you come to me for absolution?” Kirk asked in silent anger.
“No,” Gary said with an evil smile. “The part of me, the dark part of me, enjoys seeing you in pain Jim. It makes me stronger.”
Kirk stood up in anger.
“Why even tell me this now?” Kirk demanded. “You’re a murderer, Gary!” Kirk said as he gingerly backed towards his shelf. “He was my son!”
“I was trying to save him!” Gary said. “I didn’t want your son to die. I didn’t want any of this!” Gary said smashing his hand down on the table. “You were my friend, Jim, and that is the only reason you are not dead.”
“What about Chekov?” Kirk asked, now with the Gary’s memories of what had happened with Chekov. “She has one of those things inside her, you saw her kill those two men in your mind, and you just let her go on?!”
“Leave her out of this!” Gary countered. “I love that woman, and no one will harm her, including you Jim.”
Suddenly Kirk whirled around, after facing the shelf for a brief second, but now he was holding one of the new phaser-rifles.
“What are you going to do?” Gary asked in laughter. “Kill me!?” As he spoke, the sounds of thousands and thousands of screams could be heard, though faint. The screams went on and on and on.
Kirk fired the rifle…..
The beam lashed out and struck Gary in the chest and threw him back on to the floor. Kirk had it at a medium setting, but Gary was still able to stand up. The screams got louder.
“I am able to destroy things with my mind!” Gary said in laughter. “You are but an ant at my heel now, Jim.”
Kirk felt a strange sensation. He was being lifted off of the ground and then was thrown back and pinned back upon the wall of the room, still holding the phaser-rifle.

REBORN
Kirk felt a strange sensation. He was being lifted off of the ground and then was thrown back and pinned back upon the wall of the room, still holding the phaser-rifle.
“Now,” Gary said, pointing at Kirk, and walking toward him, past the table, as though guiding the force that pinned Kirk to the wall, “Now that you know the truth,” Gary said with his sadistic smile, “I can kill you and feel no remorse at all! It’s very liberating to lose friends! That’s why the evil let me come here; to end my friendship with you! This is fun!”
Kirk could feel more of the invisible pressure pressing him back into the wall.
“Gary!” Kirk yelled back as the sounds of the screams began to vibrate Kirk’s head. “Don’t do this!”
Then, behind Gary, Kirk saw something. Spock was quietly standing up from the table. Gary's grip on time was slipping.
“It has to end this way,” Gary said to Kirk as Kirk struggled to breathe. “I have to break this bond of loyalty to you in order to evolve into absolute evil and become more than I am. I feel as if the greatest burden in the universe was being lifted off my shoulder; our friendship.”
Kirk began to feel light-headed. Gary was now choking him with just mere thoughts, as he pinned Kirk against the wall. But Kirk had to hold on. He used his finger to ratchet up the power level of the phaser-rile as he watched Spock quietly move up behind Gary. Spock looked directly at Kirk and sent him a mental imprint.
“I can’t hold back time any longer,” Gary said to Kirk. “I wish I could watch you die forever, Jim, but I can’t. Your time to die has come!”
And then suddenly, using all his strength, and with the phaser power set to full, Kirk aimed the rifle at Gary just as Spock gripped Gary’s neck in a strange way. Gary’s body went limp as the beam struck him. Spock let go of Gary’s neck, and then Spock dove to the ground as Gary was thrown back by the phaser blast. Gary’s body dissolved away and all that was left was a fluctuating energy pattern of bright green and red entrails.
“Shoot it again,” Spock yelled to Kirk as the screams grew louder.
“I can’t,” Kirk shouted back as he dropped to the ground. “He’s my friend!”
“Captain,” Spock said, “he is no longer the Gary Mitchell you knew! If you don’t kill him now, he will destroy us all!”
Kirk aimed the phaser-rifle at what used to be his friend. They had shared so much fun, and drama, through the years and now it all came down to his moment. Kirk pulled the trigger and a beam streaked out and struck the energy being. The screams of thousands, maybe millions, faded and then were gone. The energy being began to fade away as well, and then it too was gone. Gary Mitchell, or what ever he had been, was now dead.
“I killed my friend,” Kirk said.
“You may have saved the entire universe Captain Kirk,” Spock said.
The door to Kirk’s room slid open and then Scotty, with his sword drawn, Sulu, with his sword drawn as well, and six phaser armed security officers rushed in.
