Lee must face his inner fears after he destroys the Resurrection Ship.
Chapter One: Lee's Vision
Kara stood on the precipice of Lee's mind, her face a beacon in his mind. He played that same expression over again in his mind. She said his name, relieved to see him again, welcoming him home to Caprica. In Caprica they had a family – two daughters and one son. The daughters looked a lot like Kara. The son looked like him. He peered into his son's eyes. They were looking across the pont. A girl's bright eyes stared back at them. Her mother, Sharon, stood behind her. Lee saw himself standing beside Sharon, placing his arm gently on her shoulder.
Lee's grip tightened on the controls of the blackbird. The still bodies of the sleeping cylons haunted his mind. They looked so human, nearly childlike in their unawareness of their impending doom. This was not the Olympia, he told himself. There were cylons here, just as there were then. He would not allow himself to believe otherwise. They were not human.
He passed rows of the model that had accused Dr. Baltar of treason. Copies of Sharon were here too. He would not miss that one; he could avenge his father at last. As he approached his first target, he heard a voice mumble in his mind…
Kara laughed as she sprayed water at him. He dived for his hose and sprayed her back. For a moment, the uniform and all that was restricted was gone. He reached out to touch her…
He gasped as the woman turned around. It was Kara, beautiful as any goddess of Kobol. She smiled and the world stopped. This moment only existed for them. She asked him what he was too breathless to dare – dance.
