Prologue

A plain white ceiling was a curious thing to have as one’s final sight.

When he had given time to thoughts of death, Spock had imagined that his last sight would be the flash of phaser fire or explosion, an alien landscape or a raging, unstoppable beast of an unknown world. At best, he had hoped for the vision to be the red walls of his own room or the Vulcan sky, enclosing him peaceably after a long life. He had not expected the end of his life to come in a cold, sterile room, unaccompanied by anyone he could call friend, and in perfect knowledge of how and when the final moment would come.

Two Months Earlier

Kirk had called Spock aside only half an hour before they were due to beam down to Malker on what was known in informal terms on the ship as a ‘second contact’. Malker, a Class M planet orbiting a yellow star similar to Sol, did at least possess space travel, and had already held communication with a number of local star systems. They had progressed beyond local government, and the planet was under one rule. They accepted the existence of aliens, and were growing used to peoples of different species visiting their planet.

Spock was forced awake as his lungs shuddered breath into his body. His eyes tried to blink but would not open. Neither would his mouth. He was sucking in air in gasps through his nostrils, his chest heaving with the effort. He felt – *awful*.

It took him a moment to realise that this meant he was not dead.

If he had believed in heaven or hell, he might have speculated that he was in hell – or perhaps purgatory, at the very least. As it was, the only explanation for the extreme illness he felt was that he was alive to feel it. His heart thudded in his side as his body released adrenaline at t ]]> I love this

‘What was that, Jim?’ McCoy asked curiously as the captain made his way back to their table in the rec room.

Kirk had vacillated over the last four days between sullen despondency and outright grief, punctuated only by his duty shifts and long evening spells of drinking an excess of spirits. It was hard enough for the doctor to accept the loss of Spock, especially when it had happened in such a awful, unstoppable way, but it was even worse for Kirk, who counted Spock as his closest friend, worked closely with him on the bridge and on away missions, and spent almost every other evening socialising ]]> I open up the blind and I let every dawn in, without you

As Kirk sat on a park bench in the southern Malkerian city of Prautoria he could barely believe the reality of his situation. The weather was warm and tranquil, the hot sun made bearable by a fresh, intermittent breeze. Birds sang and flitted about the sky, small stands of trees rustled in the wind. Occasionally small, rodent-like mammals would approach him cautiously, their eyes glinting in the hope of food – and then chatter indignantly as he showed empty hands, and run back to the thick and tangling undergrowth that edged the park’s paths and grassy areas.

Spock slept for a total of seventeen hours.

When he had not returned after two hours of meditation in his room Kirk had gone down to check on him, concerned that he was unwell. He found Spock lying on his back on his bed, fully clothed, with his hands draped on his chest as if they had slipped from one of his familiar meditation postures as he lost consciousness. He was well – the scanner Kirk held out over him confirmed that. He was simply exhausted, his body giving in to the first real chance it had had to rest in a month.

The scene repeated itself for a week. Kirk took the aircar and visited various locations in his attempts to pin down a precise reason for a Starfleet officer to be framed for a Malkerian murder, and Spock stayed at the house, using the computer, speaking to McCoy, and doing all the research that he could from his restricted location.

They had discovered various random pieces of information so far. The woman who had been murdered had never been officially identified, and had no concerned friends or relatives who had come forward after the high-profile incident. She seemed to have been homeless in the most c ]]>

Spock stirred sleepily. He was perfectly content, lying curled on his side on the rug before the fire, allowing his body to act as a shield to stop the blazing heat from burning Jim.

Spock blinked, coming slowly to wakefulness, realising that he was in the unaccustomed position of lying in bed with his captain’s body warm and close alongside him. A moment later, and he remembered what had occurred to produce the tight ache in his chest and the overwhelming sense of enervation through his body.

‘I am tired,’ he said cautiously. ‘But I do feel better.’

Kirk sat down beside Spock on the edge of his bed. Suddenly all of the effort that both of them had put in to researching and investigating seemed to have coalesced into something worthwhile. The discovery of a person with telepathic ability involved in a crime about which Spock's mind seemed confused, at best, was like opening a door from a darkened room into a vista filled with sunlight. Possibilities were unfolding like new leaves in spring.

Even with all the facts at their disposal, Spock could not help some degree of nervousness as he climbed into the aircar. The heart attack, he had to admit, had unnerved him. Although he knew precisely why it had occurred, and was doing everything possible to prevent it happening again, the sense of such fragility in his biological state was disturbing. He was used to perfect health, strength and fitness, rather than a body that felt ready to betray him at any moment.

Spock drifted awake with agonising slowness. He was aware that his entire upper body ached, and that his breathing felt strangely constricted, but it was hard to process the reason why. His mind seemed to have been soaked in alcohol, or wrapped in cotton wool, or somehow muted to intelligence and clear thought. He was aware of someone sitting next to him, their hand on his arm. He was aware of the scent of Jim, and the sounds of Jim – and when he opened his eyes he could see the face of Jim watching him with concerned eyes – but he could not *feel* Jim.

Spock reintroduction to the Enterprise was a rough one, as he was manoeuvred swiftly from someone's arms onto a gurney that felt uncomfortably cold under his back. He blinked at the bright lights above him, registering a brief impression of the shuttle bay ceiling, before being jarred back to the physicality of his own body by the tight, crushing pain in his chest and the fact that he seemed unable to breathe.

Kirk blinked his eyes open to see Spock, lying very flat in the bed still, his head turned sideways and his eyes fixed unwaveringly on the captain.

'Damn,' Kirk muttered, rubbing sleep from his eyes and pushing himself up on an elbow. 'Bones promised I'd be awake before you.'

'Dr McCoy told me that the sedative left your system as long as two hours ago,' Spock said, with a sparkle in his eye despite his pallor and the weakness of his voice. 'You were sleeping quite naturally – and necessarily.'
