(Yes it's me again. This story is based on an alternate universe, where Susan's accident never happens. The interstellar alliance is formed. John is President. John and Delenn marry.
A few months later, whilst Marcus is in charge of helping the Emfeelis, Susan takes out a white star, and it goes missing. )
Pairing: Surprise, this is a Susan and Marcus fic.
Warning: non-consensual sex mentioned
Spoilers: The Paragon Of Animals
Disclaimer: all hail the Great Maker! J M S!
Rating: PG 13
(The Rangers search for a month, but no sign of Susan's ship is found. Marcus becomes angry, harsh and hardly ever smiles any more. On the day John calls off the search, Marcus bursts into his office. John looks up, a bone weary look on his face)
John: Hello Marcus. I bet I know why you're here
Marcus: Then it's true? You're giving up on them
John: Marcus. It's been a whole month, but no sign at all. We can't search forever
Marcus: You don't have to. Just until we find them.
John: She's my friend to, okay. But we have more important things to concentrate on now.
Marcus: I thought we fought these wars for each other. For freedom. For friends and family.
John: Marcus. I know how you feel OK. But there's nothing we can do.
Marcus: And if it was Delenn instead?
John: Cheap shot.
Marcus: Answer me.
John: I know what it's like, okay?
John: Then you know that I can't give up that easily (John sighs)
John: * One * white star, for two weeks. If you find any clues I will consider more. Happy?
Marcus: Three weeks
John: Two. No negotiation.
Marcus: Three
John: Two
Marcus: Three
John: Marcus....
Marcus: I'm not leaving until you agree to three weeks
John: Ivanova is right, you are a pain in the ass! (Marcus grins)
Marcus: One of the best. Three weeks.
(Half an hour later)
John: ALL RIGHT!! 3 (Marcus exits quickly. John whispers) Good-luck
