Emotion (Star Trek fan fiction)

28 Thrice stung

'What?' Vi felt her heart turn to ice as she swung her phaser around wildly from Spock to Spock.

'Do not listen to him he is a liar.' The youngest Spock said from behind her.

'What is going on?' She cried out, her brain refusing to tell her what to do.

'The disturbance I saw was this! There are but three Spocks and I cannot tell who is the real one!' Domitian seemed as distressed as Vi.

'That's not helping!' She grit her teeth, tasting dust as the wind continued to whip up the ground.

'The logical answer is to step back through the time portal and ascertain which of us is the correct Spock.' The oldest one said, moving towards her.

'Step away from me!' Vi tightened her finger on the trigger. 'There's supposed to be two correct Spocks not one. Everyone move away from him, now.'

That left the middle aged Spock and the younger, the younger being the Spock that left Vi to come to the planet in the first place.

'All of you Spocks back through that massive portal thing.' She gestured with her phaser to the swirling blueish light next to them.

'Vi I do not think that to be wise. Whichever one is the malignant Spock will continue to wreck havoc. We must resolve this now.' Youngest Spock urged.

'You all keep saying there's a dangerous Spock but you're all just standing there! It's creeping me out. Surely if one of you were, there would be evidence.' Vi reasoned.

'Logically he is concealing his anger to remaim undetected.'

'Why did you say you were the real Spock?' Vi called over the howl of the wind to the older Spock.

'Because I cannot lie, and I am Spock.' He called back.

'Vi by technicality we are all Spock! That would not be a lie.' The youngest Spock pointed out.

In response the older Spock decked him. The oldest one joined the fight, and it resulted in a three way brawl.

Vi fired her phaser at stun into the rolling mass of ears and limbs.

They groaned and lay on the floor.

'Spock move!' She yelled.

The youngest, the one she knew to definitely be hers moved away quickly.

Vi guessed that the middle Spock was the bad one, judging from the way he started the fight. 'What do I do?'

'You must eliminate him!' Domitian encouraged.

'I can't do that!' She protested.

'You must! This event is a tipping point in your time line! As far as I can see you either eliminate him or he will eliminate your whole future!'

'But how do I know that?' She bit her lip as she looked from Spock to Spock.

'Allow me to show you what would happen if you did not.' Domitian laid a gentle blue hand on her cranium.

Vi was sucked into some kind of vision.

There was crying...a baby crying.

Amanda?
Amanda!

Why can't I reach her?

Because she is being sucked into the vortex of unlinear time. That is where there is no past, present or future. It is all nothing.

How? Why? What's going on?

If bad Spock continues, he will push you all through the portal causing fractures in your own time line. I enter through fluid points in your personal time lines, and by wiping your memories I do not damage it.
