I have a little note at the end that you might want to take a look at, if you want ;)

You struggled against Khan as he held you tightly against his chest with one arm with the other dangerously tight around your neck. You took short breaths and made sure to relax so he didn't hurt you any more than he already had. The wind whipped at your hair, pulling at your dress and making it hard to keep your eyes open. The trash ship he pulled you onto moved fast but you knew Spock was faster. You watched as he ran then leaped onto the ship, pulling himself up to come face to face with the alien superhuman.

"Good, good! I can see you care for her. Too bad there won't be much of her left for you to care for."

Spock rarely showed emotion but right there you almost felt sorry for Khan and the Vulcan he just angered. The death of his friend and the threat of death on someone you hoped he loved surely has him riled up.

You only just overheard the death of the captain before Khan dragged you with him as a shield after he happened to catch you and Spock standing close and holding hands earlier. Your limp from  your injured leg didn't spare you, in fact, you were sure he found joy in your pain.

Khan held you tighter, causing you to whimper in pain. You couldn't help it. Spock looked at you, his eyes traveling over your body then back up to your face. You watched as his face relaxed for a moment then nodded just the slightest before he turned to Khan and raised his phaser.

"Ah. Ah. Ah. You don't want this precious lady to get hurt now, do you? To be responsible for two of your closest friend's deaths?" You hear Khan cluck his tongue in mock scolding. "What would the Federation think?"

Spock waiver just the slightest but you spoke up. "Just do it!" But you then let out a shout of pain as you felt Khan stop on your injured leg.

"Quiet!"

You watch through teary eyes as Spock raised his hands. "Please, do not further injure her. Leave her out of this."

Khan scoffed then pulled at your hair to make you look at him, making tears fall freely. "Would you look at that, Lover Boy is here to save the day." He then roughly tossed you to the side, hard. You cried out but used the time to scoot away from him as best as you could. Khan then threw his coat off and came up to Spock fast, punching him hard.

You let out a scream of surprise as Spock fell back, grunting in pain but he didn't stay down. You watched as the two men shared and exchanged blows, grunts and shouts of pain filling the air. You cowered in the corner of the ship, holding on to a part of it so you didn't fly off. Suddenly you heard chirping but you couldn't tell where it was coming from. Then Spock got thrown over to you, you heard the chirping loud and clear.

"Spock, your communicator!"

With quick actions, he unclipped it and tossed it to you, his eyes catching yours and holding the gaze until Khan took another swing. You looked back at the communicator and opened it. You could barely make out Uhura saying something about 'needing him alive'. Your eyes widened and you dropped the communicator. As best as you could, you pulled yourself up to stand.

"Spock!" You shouted at him as you watched him repeatedly hit Khan in the face. You staggered closer, picking up Spock's fallen phaser and shooting Khan to phase him and get Spock's attention. "We need him alive! Stop!"

Spock hesitated for one more moment before he hit him with a final blow, knocking the superhuman out cold. You collapsed, breathing heavily from the pain in your leg. You were sure it broke. You watched as Spock crawled over to you, pulling you to his chest as he held you close, his eyes never leaving the unmoving form of Khan.
