DEEP SPACE NINE: "Let He... " - REV. 09/23/96 - ACT FIVE 54.
61 CONTINUED: (3)
DAX
What changed?
WORF
When I was thirteen, I was captain
of my school soccer team. We made
it to the championships, and I was
determined to win. Near the end
of the second half, with the score
tied, my team got a corner kick.
The ball sailed up high. Both I
and one of my opponents, a human
boy named Mikel, leaped up to head
the ball. He had position, but I
was determined to score. I
remember laughing with excitement
as I threw myself at him.
This is a difficult memory for Worf. He stops,
overcome by emotion.
DAX
Go on.
WORF
The next thing I knew, the ball
was sailing into their goal. I
roared in triumph and turned to
Mikel, to gloat, only to find him
lying on the grass bleeding. Our
heads had collided when we went up
for the ball. I didn't even feel
the impact, but I'd broken his
neck. He died the next day.
DAX
It was an accident.
WORF
Which only makes it worse.
Compared to Klingons, humans are
fragile creatures. I realized at
that moment that to live among
them I would have to practice...
restraint.
