[Scarlett]
I just suddenly woke up
My eyes shot open. I gasped and bolted up
"I am not dead!" I shouted
Then, i frowned "Wait. How'd i get in here?"
I was on the Enterprise. A holding cell, to be exact
Then, i noticed the other people in the other cages
"Jim? Clieo? Khan? Spock?" I asked
"At least she dosen't have amnesia." Khan said
"Scarlett!" Jim said, standing up from his bed "Are you alright?"
I tried to stand, but i was a bit wobbly "I'm fine." Then i frowned "How'd we get here?"
"Your pod exploded." Jim said
Clieo smirked "And Jim rescued you."
"We got captured and so did Clieo and Khan." Spock said
"We have to get out of here." Khan said "Who knows what can the Morphus-"
The door opened and Admiral Daren came in
"Good. Your up." He said "We're taking all of you to Star Fleet. Your going to enjoy the rest of your lives roting in the Kronos prison."
"But we didnt do it!" Jim protested "There are these people named the-"
"Morphus?" Daren guessed
I frowned "How did you know?"
Daren smirked "Because." Then, Daren turned into someone else. He had black hair instead of brown and amber eyes instead of lime
"Your a Morphus!" Clieo said "That's why the Morphus was always one step ahead of us! Your one of them!"
"Figure that all by yourself, did you?" He asked, sarcastically
"But how did you get past the Federation?" Spock asked
"You may not know as much about the Morphus than you think, Vulcan." Drios said
"Why would you do this?" Clieo asked
Daren scowled "Because the federation took everything from us. They threw us in that wretched prison, Kronos, just because they feared our power."
"And you stole some Kryptonide crystals." Khan added
"Whatever." Daren said "What matters is, that you four can't prove anything. Besides, the federation will get what's coming to them."
Then, he changed back into how we all knew him and left
"I hate that guys even more now." Clieo said
"Agreed." Spock said
Then, there was suddenly red lights flashing
"Red alert?" Spock said, confused
Then, the door opened
"Pavel!" Clieo said, happy to see her boyfriend
"Clieo! Jim! Scarlett! Spock!" Then Pavel frowned "Khan? What's he doing here?"
"No time to explain." Jim said
"Pavel," i said "what's happening to the Enterprise?"
"It's the Morphus." Pavel said "They've hacked into the ship's engine system. The ship's going down. Also, we're within Earth's orbit. If the Enterprise falls, it hits earth."
"We need to get out of here." I said "Pavel, can you get us out."
Pavel nodded "Oh, yes! I almost forgot."
He ran over to the control panel and pressed a few buttons. In a few seconds, the holding cells opened
"Come! Come! Your needed at the Bridge!" Pavel said rushing to the door
We followed and ran to the Bridge
