The landing party all but killed, only Kirk and Spock surviving the ordeal.
“It came out of nowhere.” Kirk’s message to the Enterprise.
The kill shots having come out of the blue. Spock protecting the Captain, taking the bulk of the fire, some though, landing on Kirk.
Having disappeared right after, none of them the wiser of the whom or what.
Spock, lying there bleeding. Kirk, even in his own state was dire, he could not leave Spock to die.
Picking Spock up with his last strength, while Spock trying to object.
But…
“It’s okay love, I’ll always carry you.”
