Title: Self-Analyses and Planning
Author: CassandraD
Disclaimer: If I owned them I would write for the show.
In the gym the silence was broken by the sound of Tyr's exertions. Muscles straining against gravity, lifting the weighted bar above his chest and lowering it again and again. The movements' automatic, requiring no thought. His mind free it seemed to separate, his thoughts drifting with no conscious pattern. Almost an exercise in free association.
Baby I've been searching like everybody else
Can't say nothing different about myself
Ever since the Dragans destroyed my Pride I had lived to achieve retribution. Looking after my own interests and planning the destruction of my enemies. I did things I am not proud of.
Sometimes I'm an angel
And sometimes I'm cruel
I accepted contracts if the price was right. I became one of the most feared and highly paid mercenaries in three galaxies. My name synonymous with death. I was a killer, part of me still is.
And when it comes to love
I'm just another fool
I crossed Naz to save Medea. I thought I would build a life with her. But I could not stay with her and destroy the Dragans. When I did return Medea did not want me. Now I realize my plans to rebuild the Kodiak had changed far more than I had realized.
Yes I'll climb a mountain
I'm gonna swim the sea
I must build the framework for my son to unite the Prides. But Tamerlain will need allies loyal to him. He will need brothers. Their Mother will give them excellent survival instincts. It adds difficulty that my chosen believes I could never want her. I was a fool to say I could never be interested in a million years. She has proven herself superior to all other options.
There ain't no act of God girl
Could keep you safe from me
She is loyal to a fault. Once I have her word she will be bound to me, her code of honor will not allow her to leave. Ladrone will not pose a problem. As a rival he is insignificant. He can be removed with a few words spoken in the company of certain acquaintances informing them he is still alive. Undoubtedly Dylan will try to protect her from me. But I can use that. She never has liked to do as she was told.
My arms are reaching out
Out across this canyon
Ladrone's removal could also be used to further my position. I am the one Beka trusted to have her back when she 'liberated' him. She knew I would protect her.
His workout complete Tyr showered and changed clothes. Taking one of his books he walked towards obs. deck planning to read. When at the corridor junction not ten meters away he saw Beka and *him* kiss and go different ways. Beka walking toward him while Ladrone followed the left corridor. As she passed him Tyr couldn't resist and grabbed her hand, halting Beka. His lips close to her ear Tyr whispered. "You will be an excellent mother, Rebecca." As he released her hand and continued walking along the corridor a slight shiver went down Beka Valentine's spine as something hunted flashed in her eyes, at the slight secret smile that touched Tyr's lips.
The End
