Summary: Spock is killed on an away mission. The burial is postponed when the Enterprise must respond to an emergency in deep space with a captain who is slowly descending into madness. Meanwhile, Spock Prime improbably reunites with Kirk Prime, but now they must struggle to survive in a dimension where nightmares are real and a powerful being wants them in her collection.
Author's Note(s): I feel that I must assure readers that while this fic has dark and disturbing elements, it's equally balanced with light and fluffy elements. A truly bipolar fanfic, to be certain. I am the luckiest author in the world because I had the two best betas in the world. My hat is off to you,
cicero_drayon, for making this story even possible by hashing out plots elements with me, editing when you're super busy at college, and overall believing in me when I wanted to throw the thing to the recycle bin. I also owe great thanks and adulation to
nix_this, who swooped in to tear my story a new one but kindly stayed around to mend it. It wouldn't be half as coherent and polished if you hadn't lent a sizable hand. Finally, thank you to many of you on my flist who listened to me whine and gave me advice on even the most trivial matter.
