Andromeda
"Kayleigh"
Chapter 1
Dylan had been still suspious of their new, older, non-purple Trance. She was certainally different than the Trance they were used to. Tyr had noticed that the new Trance kept going to the same hatch on the Eureka Maru everyday and he wondered what she was up to. Tyr brought it up to Beka and Dylan and Dylan had told them that he would look into it. So, Dylan followed Trance to the Eureka Maru and then let his presence be known. "Trance, what are you doing here?" Dylan asked. She turned and she oviously was not happy with his presence there.
"I was just looking for Beka," Trance lied.
"Beka is on the Andromeda in command and you knew that. Trance, so I'll ask you again what you have been up to? What are you hiding?" Dylan asked.
"Hiding? Why would I be hiding something? What would I be hiding on the Maru?" Trance asked him.
"That's what I'm here to find out, move aside," Dylan told her.
"Why?" she asked him.
"Because I know it has something to do with that hatch," Dylan told her poiting to the hacth behind Trance. Trance moved aside. "I must tell you that once you open that hacth your life will change forever."
"Dylan!" Rommie came into the Eureka Maru and purposely kept Dylan from the hatch.
"Rommie?"
"I can't let you open the hatch," Rommie told him and stepped in front of it.
"Why not?"
"I just can't!"
"Rommie, I'm ordering you to stand aside!" Dylan told her started to get rather frustrated.
"Dylan, please?"
"Rommie, now!"
"Yes, Dylan," she stood aside and let him open the hatch to find a small girl asleep.
"Who is this?" he asked them.
"Perhaps you should ask her yourself," Trance suggested.
Dylan lifted her out of the hatch, she was clearly around the age of ten. She had short blonde curly hair and she reminded him of someone. Who? Who did she remind him of? Dylan carried her out of the Eureka Maru and headed toward medical, but half way there she awoke. Dylan set her down and she just stared at him of dazzling blue eyes. "Hello," she said.
"Hello, who are you?"
"I am Kayleigh, don't you recognize me?"
"No, I'm afraid not."
"Aunt Trance, why does he not recognize me?"
"Because he's a younger version. I brought you to the past where you would be able to grow up here. Safe."
"Why? Why would I be safer in the past then in what would be there future? Aunt Trance? Aunt Rommie?"
"I want to know why you knew she was here Rommie?" Dylan asked.
"Because I confronted Trance and she told me and I knew it was better that you didn't know just then."
"Who are your parents?" Dylan asked Kayleigh.
"My Aunts think that you are not ready to know yet and perhaps they are right. But one thing I do know is what I've been taught," Kayleigh told him.
"And what would that be?" Dylan asked and Trance and Rommie were hanging onto her every word.
"In Dylan Hunt we trust," Kayleigh said and then started off in the direction of command when Tyr, Harper, and Beka cut off her route. Dylan just stared at the child, where had she heard that? Who had taught her that?
"Dylan, who's the child?" Tyr asked eyeing the girl.
"Hello, Tyr," Kayleigh greeted Tyr and instantly got a look from him. "Yes, I know who you are. I've heard you gloat about yourself so many times now. You're Tyr Anasazi, last of the Kodiak Pride. Tyr, who wants to unite all the prides together with the bones of Drago Musevni which just happen to be on the Andromeda Ascendent and are locked away from you."
"Your name child?"
"Kayleigh, and although I may be merely a child, a human girl. I am more intelligent than you may see me for."
"Oh, I will not underestimate you, Kayleigh. And who happen to be your parents?"
"It is none of your business, Tyr," Trance told him.
"I was not speaking to you."
"I must agree with Trance," Rommie told Tyr.
"I was not talking to you either!"
"But they are correct. My genetic history is non of your concern," Kayleigh told Tyr. "Hello Harper, Beka."
"You know all of us? How?" Beka asked.
"She came here with me," Trance told her.
"You brought her from our future?" Beka asked confused.
"I brought her here to save her," Trance told them.
"If we just tell them who my parents are and the reason why I am here then they would trust us, Aunt Trance," Kayleigh told her.
"Aunt Trance?" Harper asked puzzled.
"We cannot share that information," Trance told her.
"I won't mess us any tempral timeline or anything," Kayleigh promised.
"Fine, I know and you know that once you have your mind set I cannot change it," Trance told Kayleigh.
"Good. I am ten years old, I tend to be on whoever wants to destroy the Commonwealth's list of people to kill. My name is Kayleigh Hunt. My parents are Captian Dylan Hunt of the Andromeda Ascendent and Captian Beka Valentine of the Eureka Maru. Where I come from the future is very bad, everything is being destroyed. But I know that it can be changed I know this because Harper is oviously still alive, he didn't die from the Magog larvae."
"That is REALLY strange!" Beka told her.
"I know you don't believe me, exactly yet. I suppose you would like a DNA test done? And I will let you."
"That's what I was thinking, yes."
"Good," Kayleigh told her, "then let's go to medical and compare DNA."
"Okay," Dylan told her anxious to see if the DNA did in fact match.
