...to seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend... (Bones/Sam)
After having locked up Captain Pike and his Spock, McCoy headed back toward Sickbay... and stopped.
Jim was gone. George was gone. It hit him with a dull thud to the gut, the realization that they weren't on board. That they were somewhere else, maybe on another ship. Fuck, if he was lucky he was on another ship, somewhere safe, being taken care of. It had to be that... because if it was something worse - if he'd been taken...
But fuck - the people here hadn't been able to make it home. Wanted to, desperately, but they couldn't get there. Smartest minds in the universe on this ship and they couldn't fucking figure it out. What if Kirk and George weren't able to make it home? What if there wasn't a way of getting them back and they were stuck somewhere, like the other Jim, Spock, Bones, and the rest of that crew? What if he were somewhere else, like that fucked up place like the Captain Pike and his Spock had come from?
Bones stopped, pressing his forehead against the wall. It hurt, so fucking much, hurt all over. What was it about the Kirk's that this was all revolving around?
Kirk...
Turning around, he headed back toward the quarantine rooms and ignoring the surprised look at the guard outside the door, pressed the code to let him into Sam Kirk's room.
