Star Trek: Eclipse/ Prologue

Prologue
''I had felt the symbiont slide into my abdomen slowly but surely. At first I felt nothing else. Anxiety, yes, but nothing indicating that the Kaz symbiont had connected its consciousness with mine. That was when I heard a low voice in my head saying my name, as if to greet me.''

''I felt my heart race as the doctors stitched me up. This was never supposed to happen, the Kaz symbiont being joined with me. It was an accident, this so-called "honour". But I guess it can't be helped. ''

''Emotions that were not my own swarmed my mind, my very soul. Hatred. Anger. Fear. Despair. I was no longer Ziranne Idaris. I am now Ziranne Kaz. ''

''I slept horribly last night, almost not at all. The memories of my previous hosts haunted my very being and old emotions tore at my consciousness to the point where I just lay there in bed, wide awake and staring up at the ceiling. Little did I know that one transmission from Starfleet the very next day would drag me into a most staggering situation. And perhaps even one of the most deadly.''
