Time Will Tell
Things had not been going well aboard Moya, over the last monen. They had lost the trail of the Command Carrier. Pilot was doing all that he could to find the location of the Carrier. Everyone was back to there usual routine, all except for me. I had checked with Pilot and found out that Aeryn was in the Maintenance Bay. That was one place that I didn't want to be at that microt. Moving down the corridor not really paying attention to where he was going, I find myself outside the terrace. Glancing inside to make sure that there was no one there. Walking in he leans back against Moya's hold looking up at the stars. His mind wanders to what to do about Aeryn, knowing that he had to give her the space she needed. Though it was really becoming hard for him to do this while they occupied the same space, even something as big as a Leviathan. He had to get away from her. This was probably going to be the best thing for him to do but where could he go? Back to the Royal Planet or maybe even Aqquarra. Standing abruptly, rushing to Pilots chamber.
"Pilot."
"Yes, Commander?"
"I need you to check and see how close we are to the Royal Planet or Aqquarra?"
"May I ask why, Commander?"
"I am thinking about taking a leave of absence." Seeing the I don't understand what you are talking about look on Pilots face. "I think it is time for me to leave for awhile. There are things here that need to have some space."
"You mean Officer Sun."
"Yea, that is who I mean. I can't stand the way she looks at me and the avoidance is driving me crazy. This is the best plan of action."
"What about the Command Carrier, Commander? I know that I still haven't found any trace of it in the last weeken but I might come up with something."
"Well, my opinion is at the moment is to go ahead and scan for the Carrier but only until I leave. After that it will be no need, because it was my idea to go after it in the first place and the others just went along with it. We might resume it after I get back or if I come back, that part I haven't decided just yet. Let me know when you have found out which place we are closest too. Thanks for everything Pilot." Turning and walking out the chamber.
"Oh and Pilot. Don't tell anyone else about this please. I don't want the others to know until my plan is set."
"Yes, Commander. I will get with you as soon as possible with the information that you require."
"Thank you, Pilot." Turning and resuming his course down the corridor.
Entering his quarters he started thinking about if he did leave what was he going to tell everyone. Or would he tell anyone about what he was doing. He had to tell someone other than Pilot but who would it be. This is when he wished Zhaan were still alive because he could always talk to her or Stark. He and Zhaan had a special connection after the unity that they shared, it was like she knew what he was thinking before he voiced it. Though that could have been just his imagination but he didn't think so.
"Zhaan since you are not here give me some idea who I can talk too." Resting his head in his hands, closing his eyes letting his mind wander.
"John. I am with you. I have always been with you."
Raising his head but no opening his eyes. "How? How are you talking to me?"
"I am part of you."
"Then you know what I am planning to do?"
"Yes, John."
"What do I do? If I do go should I tell anyone or everyone?"
"Look into your heart John. You know what to do."
"Thank you Zhaan. I miss you."
"Remember that I am always with you."
"I will Zhaan."
Opening his eyes, the memory of Zhaan faded but her wisdom did not. Sitting there for several more arns, knowing what he needed to do. The only on he could trust was D'argo. He would tell him as soon as Pilot let him know what was happening. Since he had already done his Command duty there was really know place that he needed to be so he opted for bed. He awoke to the sound of chirping from his COM.
