You're not Mack!
[Summary: confusion. That's it...ok fine here's the actual summary, smh. Remember that one-shot I named "Hehehe....Mack<3"? This is kinda the 'second chapter' or something....eh ye you'll get it lol.]

You were sleeping peacefully in the storage room (because...you fell asleep there) until you got rudely woken up by getting thrown on the ground by someone, or something. "What the hell?..," you muttered as you stood up and brushed the non-existant dust off your clothes. "This isn't the storage room..," you began to worry, you already got accustomed to one universe after the warped core stopped working but you were now in a completely different universe.
Well you didn't hope that was the case. Maybe Mack just wanted to play with you? He has been very touchy lately and he was set on 'working our relationship out' which you found funny but it was nice he was trying.
But after the other cryo-pod opened and launched an unknown man to the Window's direction, you confirmed it wasn't the universe you settled in. "Captain?.." the unknown man stood up, looking confused. You had the urge to grab onto his arm and suprisingly you were right, as he was almost sucked into the vacuum of space.
"Oh...thank you, Captain." The man, which you now knew as Mark, thanked you. 'Weird..I swear I've heard that name before.' You thought to yourself before the computer again, rudely interrupted your train of thought. It alerted both you and Mark that there was fire on the bridge (which you could clearly see..) and that life support was failing.
You ran to shout a command that Mack used to put out the fire but realized that this was a different universe, and you had a feeling that Mark put more self-distruct systems other than actual helpful ones. Grabbing the fire extinguisher, you quickly handed it to him whilst you went to fix life support.

You both managed to make ADS function again, fix cryo, and not have a heart attack. You were now just walking around the bridge as you waited for any other alerts. Thankfully there wasn't any...for now, so you sat down next to Mark's cryo pod and Mark sat down next to you. "Great job there, Captain!," he excitedly complimented you, like a puppy (which was weird for you to say because you felt like you've said that before).
Sighing, you looked at Mark with pity on your face. "I'm sorry...," you apologized, Mark was confused, he opened his mouth to talk but you cut him off, "you're not Mack." You continued. "I'm...I'm sorry what?.." the room around you, and Mark, glitched. "I-!" He laughed sadly, "I don't know what you're talking about..captain?." He stated, although is sounded more like a question.
"Was I not good enough for you?.." he asked, sounding like a lost puppy, but all you could do now was watch sadly. "I- WHO IS MACK?!" This time he sounded insane, no, not insane, desperate.
He managed to get very close to you until...he was replaced by the person you knew the most, Mack.
I guess you just forgot about Mark. After all this time you would think you'd never forget him, but here you are.
