So...I know this is your story...but you had to start with Kirk still being Cryo? Could not just focus on say Pike? Guess I am just tired of reading all the Poor Hurt Kirk fan fic stories based off the Abrams Universe.

Not going any further.

I find the idea of Pike alive pleases me. I hope the author still has a feel for this after all the hard work of school being completed. I am most interested where this would go.

good chapther update soon

Very happy I found this story..., I too was sorry that admiral pike died during khans attack...I like the fact he is the father figure that him never had. Also like the fact that Carol is in the story...always thought they made a great couple.

Love the story
Can't wait for the next chapter
Im glad chris survived
Jim will need him

Loved the story very good work please update soon.

Very good story so far can't wait to read more so please update very soon.

update soon

Awesome ff...me too wanted pike to be alive...pls continue...

I also wished that Pike didn't have to die in the movie, so it's nice that you let him live. Very nice ties between all the characters here.

Very interesting story thus far. I've been there and done that in terms of school, so I understand being busy. Still, I hope you plan to continue this at some point.

I love it!

Great story!

And Spock is showing emotion?!

Will wonders never cease? Hope not!

yaaay you updated! I love this chapter its so sweet :)

Love thestory

Wow I'm so glad to discover this story. We see these characters at their best in the films but you have given us a view of their other side - their natural bonding as colleagues, friends and family. It's refreshing to see how all the command crew and Pike interact with one another in mutual respect and love. I am looking forward to the next chapter. Update soon!
