"The Enterprise is about to leave Starbase 2, where Janice Lester and Dr. Arthur Coleman have been turned over to the authorities. In Kirk's quarters, Kirk and McCoy discuss Kirk's relationship with Lester at Starfleet Academy. Kirk blames himself for not seeing how obsessed Lester was with starship command. He tells McCoy the Enterprise has been ordered back to Earth for a refit. Kirk has received transfer orders for all 430 crewmembers. McCoy urges Kirk to fight the transfers, including Kirk's own promotion to Admiral and Chief of Starfleet Operations, but Kirk has decided to take the promotion. Kirk is tired of holding his crew's lives in his hands. On their way to the bridge, McCoy reminds Kirk that the lives he has saved far outnumber the crew he has lost, but Kirk believes that he can"@en . . . "Genre"@en . "Empty"@ru . "Oct.8.2016"@en . .

Since it was almost eleven o\u2019clock, I was feeling the cool hand of sleep slowly run its fingertips up my spine and since I had nowhere else to surrender myself to the calling, I grabbed a blanket from the hallway closet and laid down on the couch watching TV. I had merely closed my eyes when I heard a knock at the door. Thump. Thump. Thump. Irritated, hating deeply whoever would interrupt my sleep before it even began, I answered the door. \u201CWhat?\u201D I demand of the man at the door. \u201CYou\u2019re here for my mother aren\u2019t\u2026.\u201D I then looked at the man. The once delicate fingers running up my spine beckoning sleep, closed themselves tightly crushing each vertebrae paralyzing me. Hours seemed to pass, endless hours of staring into that face. Enveloped in shadow, I was unable to see anything above his nose as \u201Che\u201D mouthed words I was either too young or too tired to understand. If only I knew then what \u201Che\u201D said, maybe I\u2019d be ready for what he ended up giving me as a punishment. I felt his eyes devouring me, leaving me feeling naked and exposed like he knew everything about me. Slowly he smirks and turns his head towards the stairs leading to my apartment. I felt the grip loosen just enough for me to turn my head to the left and try to see what it is \u201Che\u201D was looking at. Confused, I sat there looking at nothing for a couple of seconds before I feel a pat on my head before \u201Che\u201D simply vanished, like he was never there. I refused to sleep in the living room the next night and convinced my mother, even though we were fighting, to stay in the living room while I slept in the bed, safe from the door, safe from the stranger. I fell asleep quickly, whisked away into the wonderful bliss, that wonderful empty void. Tap. Tap. Tap. Immediately I awoke in a cold sweat knowing exactly what I would find. I closed my eyes and rolled away from the window covering my head with the pillow, refusing to get up knowing in my young na\u00EFve heart that he would have to stop eventually and go away. Tap. Tap. Tap. The sound was piercing straight to my brain no matter how tightly I packed my fingers into my ears. I reluctantly stood up on the bed, trembling. I opened the curtain and saw the faceless figure. Terrified, I felt the long delicate fingers secure themselves tightly around my spine not allowing me to move even an inch away from this faceless terror. Playfully \u201Che\u201D placed his finger on the glass right where my nose was touching the window, as his cracked dry lips slowly twisted into a smirk. Tap. Tap. Tap. Each stroke of his finger against the pane shot daggers into me ripping the air out of my lungs. \u201CHe\u201D chuckled to himself every time I winced in agony, unable to breathe. His hood would shift on his head each time his shoulders would raise. Strange, the things we remember when we\u2019re suffering, anything to take our mind off of the burning and aching of being suffocated. Once again \u201Che\u201D pulled his finger away from the glass and I clenched my eyes tightly and braced myself for the expected collapse of my empty lungs. Tap. Static began blaring from my clock radio on the night stand and I opened my eyes. Inky black darkness was the only thing there. This went on for weeks, night after night, waking up to a tapping on the window. I would quiver in fear each night as if I were a slave grasped by my collar and dragged to the window by a malevolent master to be shown what happens to bad little boys. I had to escape. I couldn\u2019t face the horror any longer. I talked my mother into letting me spend the night at my friend\u2019s house. We stayed up late watching movies and playing video games until finally we became tired and were dragged deeply into the glorious abyss known as sleep. Tap. I felt the blade pierce deeply into my shoulder immobilizing me as his finger pressed harder than anything I have ever felt. \u201CHow did you get here? How did you get inside when the door is locked?\u201D I asked, with the first words spoken between us since that first night. To which the only answer I got was a grin and nothing more. I jumped as my friend asked me. \u201CWho are you talking to?\u201D And with that \u201Che\u201D was gone. Relieved that \u201Che\u201D was gone I simply told my friend I must have been talking in my sleep and to go back to bed. That was the last time I saw \u201Chim\u201D for years. I was just a child then, no older than ten. I saw \u201Chim\u201D once more, just recently, a week after my twenty-fourth birthday. I had forgotten \u201Chim,\" pushed those weeks of terror deep into my subconscious never to be recovered. It was the only way to maintain any sort of sanity. Tap. Tap. Tap. In that moment every detail rushed back to me. I was that scared ten year old quivering under my blankets. The smell of my old apartment filled the air, the stench of dirty dishes and alcohol. I stood up and wrapped a blanket around myself then opened the curtain. There was nothing there. I stood quizzically for a minute before I shook it off as nothing more than paranoia. I turned around to lie back down in my soft comfortable bed when there \u201Che\u201D was standing there no more than four feet away from me wearing the same hooded sweatshirt and torn jeans with the same blank expression on his face. \u201CThe rest are gone now.\u201D \u201CHe\u201D said as he chuckled and smiled to himself. \u201CWhat do you mean the rest are gone?\u201D \u201CI\u2019ve given you what I promised.\u201D Saying nothing more he simply turned around and walked out through my bedroom door. \u201CWHAT DO YOU MEAN!?\u201D I scream out frantically. \u201CWHAT DID YOU PROMISE ME!? GIVE ME AN ANSWER!\u201D I rushed down the hall to my roommate\u2019s room and bash my knuckles against his door until my knuckles left red splotches where they were striking. Nothing, I swung the door open slamming it on the wall to see \u201Chim\u201D standing there \u201CHe\u2019s not here, neither is anybody else. You are truly alone now.\u201D That was two weeks ago and I\u2019m about to go insane I\u2019m writing this in case there is anybody else around. \u201CHe\u201D had to be lying, Things like \u201Chim\u201D don\u2019t exist. They can\u2019t exist. I\u2019m about to run out of power, and there hasn\u2019t been electricity in four days. I hope this reaches somebody, anybody. I just want there to be someone out there. I can\u2019t do this. There has to be somebody out there. I don\u2019t want to die alone. Written by XanCrews"@en . . . . . . "#FFFFFF"@en . . . "2.3"^^ . "Label"@en . . "#000000"@en . . . .
