Kirk had seen this before, in the fragments of Spock's memories during the mind meld. Two men, two friends separated by a barrier and the certainty of death.
When he'd learned Harrison's true identity the memory had snapped forward, tightening in his mind until it had turned into a razor sharp focus. Now here they were, with what might has well been a light year between them.
Death had never really frightened him. He'd faced it down and laughed and because of that his crew, his family had been out at risk. It was only fitting that Jim put his own life on the line, for his family.
He woke with a cold sweat and a concentrated ball of tension in the center of his chest. Jim crawled quietly out of bed, not wishing to wake Hermione, and walked out into the living room. Sinking onto the couch he rubbed his face, then leaned forward until his head was touching his knees.
