Time-Space And Terror
by Rob Morris


USS ENTERPRISE, NCC-1701-A, ORBITING CESTUS THREE, 2286


Science Officer Peter Kirk bit down. This was going to be hard.


"Mister Saavik, the enemy's energy processing center is located. You may fire
when ready."


Weapons Officer Saavik also understood the waste, and was revolted by it. But
with the Captain and Spock trapped on the imperiled planet below, there simply
was no choice.


"Understood, Mister Kirk. Targeting energy center. A spread of six photon
torpedoes. Launched."


Once, it had terrorized ancient Earth, til it was forced to flee its enemies in
1999. Where it had been til the present was now irrelevant, as its ability to
move and defend itself was ripped out of its gut by 23rd Century technology.
The tricephalous nightmare plunged into the atmosphere, quickly burning to less
than a cinder from the fires without and within, its many kilotons of mass
aside. Lieutanant Kirk called down to Auxiliary Control, where the acting CO
had been trapped by the initial damage from the monster's attack.


"We can beam up the landing party, Commander. The creature is destroyed." 


"You and Mister Saavik made a good team on this one, Piotr. The Kyptin vwill be
pleased. Also, I don't think he vwas happy protecting a Gorn colony."


Since Saavik was coordinating ship repair between the Bridge and Auxiliary, it
was left to Science Officer Kirk to make the initial report that regulations
demanded short of total ship's systems' failure.
He spoke the words that broke his scientist's heart.


"King Ghidorah has been destroyed..."
