“‘Uhura, Farragut’.
‘Farragut?’ She thought. She’d heard right, but that didn’t make it right. Straining to see over the head of her fellow cadets she finally found who she was looking for and broke from the crowd. Noting the look in...

“They were alone in the lift. As had everyone else on board, she tried to think of something to say. And as happened to everyone else on board, she could not find words to express how she felt.
