A few seconds went by when blood curdling screams erupted throughout the room. They were killing people left and right. Men who refused to be taken, women who fought to keep their teenage children from being taken away. Everything seemed to be moving in slow motion. First something warm hit my skin, this was followed by my father's body dropping to the ground. My mothers screams backing away from them. I stared with wide eyes, my fingers reached up grazing the liquid.

I knew what blood was. The fact that it was my fathers made my entire body shake. My eyes widened but I couldn't seem to find a voice to scream out. "Watch out!" Someone else was shouting just before an explosion went off next to us. My mother covered me as debris fell from the ceiling. It took five minutes for the dust to clear. I was pinned by a beam, my mother... dead.

There was a young man with brown, almost blonde hair running up to me. "Hey, are you alright?" I stared at him, to paralized to speak. I didn't know if he was with those men or not. I did know I was in pain and I was getting tired. "No, no, no. Don't go to sleep, look at me. If I tell you my name will you tell me yours?" I gave a small nod, wincing as he started to move the beam. "It's James Kirk. You can call me Jim if you want."

I looked at him, he had kind eyes. I could see enough that he was genuine, that he wanted to help me. "M-my name is (Y/n), (Y/n) (L/n)." He nodded, his face turning red from strain. "Jim... am I going to die like my parents? Like those people?" He was silent for a moment.

I watched waiting for his answer. "No, I won't let that happen. If I'm going to be a star fleet captain someday I am going to have to save everyone I can. You want to join my crew?" It took me a moment to nod, I had dreams of going out into space with all the knowledge I could gain. "Then fight. You can't go out there if you give up, right." He paused. "Do you think you can move?"

"Yes, I will drag myself if I have to. I want to go with you when you enter space, Jim." He smiled sweetly at me, his face hardening as he pulled the heavy beam up once more.

Lifting it little by little. "Then start dragging yourself kid, and I will do what I can to get you into my starship. When I become a captain you can be my best science officer." I let my fingers drag me across the ground, biting my lip as the pain spread through my legs. I wanted to cry out, but I needed to depend upon my own strength. It was my own strength to pull myself out that would save me. I couldn't let my fear or sorrow slow me down.

Jim might have been able to lift that beam but he needed me to pull myself out. Even as the darkness spread across my view, I refused to let myself faint until I was free. "I will be the best science officer... nothing will.... Stand in my way."

Silence, and something warm running down my face and legs. Something heavy hitting the ground, and something grabbing hold of me. I turned ready to claw out one of those men's eyes, only to see his kind ones looking back at me. He had taken off his coat so that he could wrap me in it. I curled to him, he was the only thing I could rely on . I would do anything to make him proud.

But when my eyes settled on all of the bodies, one after another scattered on the ground. Some buried under the rubble, others lining the walls where those men had killed them. He seemed to notice my eyes moving from one to the next. "Don't look at them, there isn't anything you can do." I didn't register what he said. I knew one thing in that moment. Blood colored the floors and walls and nothing was going to be the same after this.

I was growing weaker, but I wanted to say something. "Promise me, we won't leave anyone behind ever again. I don't want anyone to be left behind." I watched him bite his lip. The darkness closing upon my eyes faster and faster.
