Stardate Twenty-two sixty-one.
"We have Khan from the planet Qo'noS and we intend to make him stand trial for the deaths he has instigated," Spock replied. "And some unsettling information has come out regarding your part with the missiles we have on our ship. He only was acting out because he believed you killed his crew."
"Shit, you talked to Khan." Came Marcus's voice.
"Affirmative." Spock said.
"Hand him over." Marcus said.
"Negative," Spock replied. "Our transporter is having problems working at the moment and I am . . . unaware. . . what is causing the outage."
"That is not true," Wallace said. "They are work-"
"What did I hear?" Marcus asked.
"You heard that the transporters are working imprecisely," Spock said. "If we were to beam Khan aboard then we would leave a sad bitter representation of him. Spock out." Spock pressed a button on the arm rest to the captain's chair. "Mr Chekov, can we jump to warp?"
"We can but the warp core is still hobbled." Came Chekov's statically reply.
Spock looked up in the direction of Sulu.
"Warp six," Spock ordered. "Head to Earth."
The Enterprise jumped into warp.
A minute later Carol Marcus came onto the bridge with a panicked look about her face.
"Captain!" Carol shouted, Spock looked over in her direction. "He can attack in warp!"
Suddenly the Enterprise tilted sideways followed by a couple blasts to the nacelles. The lights in the room briefly went out and some of the bridge personnel was sent falling to the ground. Smoke clouded the air, the sounds of electricial wires were singing in the air, and there were coughs from all over. Spock got up feeling an ache in his head. The screen sizzled to life to display a royally pissed of Admiral Marcus staring at Spock's direction.
"Give up, and hand him over," Marcus said. "It will make this much easier."
Instead, that sounded like a threat to Spock.
"I do not believe in no-win scenarios." Spock said.
"Your funeral." Marcus said.
"Father!" Carol came to the view screen rubbing her shoulder.
Marcus's eyes widened.
"Carol?" Marcus said,in disbelief.
"If you are going to kill them, well, you can't do it with me on board." Carol said.
There was a pause.
"Well then," Marcus said. "You are right. I can't do it without you on that ship."
"No!" Carol screamed,vanishing in a golden flash running out of the bridge.
"I hereby condem you to death for aiding with a terrorist." Marcus said.
"Admiral," Spock said. "Since I am the one who who did this, and gave the orders, would it be logical to kill the one was responsible? I am the captain of this ship, responsible for the actions of my crew, and if I give you Khan's location, my only request is that you spare those who had no choice but to obey my command. It is only logical that captain suffers rather than the crew."
That was as bout as the only plead from Spock for the admiral.
"Well, that's a hell of a reasoning," Marcus said. "But for any consultation I was never going to spare you." There were gasps. It was logical that Spock was recording the conversation for later proof of what had happened in the destruction of the Enterprise or in the time when they came to Earth safely. "Fire when. . ."
