A yawn made Lucy's ears pop as she stretched wearily. She had managed to get some sleep, but it had been interrupted by Anti's paranoid whining. Every time David came even somewhat close to Lucy's door Anti had started yelling for her to wake up. Lucy figured that he had been making some of it up. There was no way he had come by that many times.

"Anti, thanks for the many, many warnings, but next time… just let me know if someone actually opens the door," Lucy murmured, and Anti made a noncommittal noise.

Quickly getting out of the bed, Lucy got ready to go to the other base. Her watch was fully charged. Lucy wanted to go to Lucifer's but wondered if the portal to the next world would appear soon. Usually it appeared after she accomplished something or needed to move on. She still didn't know what was leading her, but she had figured out a pattern of sorts. Was what she had done here enough? She had kept two scientists from getting lost in an alien bunker. Did it need more than that?

The least she could do was show David the panic room that she'd found, then it'd be up to them to stay alive. By now she knew that she couldn't save everyone. People were going to get themselves into trouble whether she was there or not. She also wanted to retrieve her cameras. While she could always buy more, it seemed like a waste to leave them here.

D'Artagnan jumped into Lucy's pocket as she grabbed her backpack. Walking through the hallway, she soon found Captain Janek looking out at the alien planet. He noticed her and looked at her backpack curiously.

"Going somewhere?" he asked and raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah, I told Vickers that I only needed to stay for the storm. And I want to retrieve some equipment from the base," Lucy explained quickly.

"Lucy," David said, interrupting Janek. "So, you're going back into the base with us?"

"Uh, yeah. You wanted me to show you where I was staying, right?"

David nodded and said, "Let me know if I can assist you."

"Sure thing," Lucy said and looked back to Janek.

"Kid… Vickers might be the 'authority' on this ship, but I'm still its Captain. Don't feel like you need to leave because she doesn't like you."

Lucy felt her face flush a little and replied, "I'm not a kid… but thank you."

Janek gave her a little smirk before he walked off. Millburn quickly walked up to her with Fifield walking not too far behind.

"Are you sure that you want to go back in there?" Millburn asked nervously.

"Yeah, I left some of my things," Lucy answered and noticed Fifield roll his eyes. "Expensive things. You guys should definitely stay here though. Don't want to get lost again. Besides, David will be there."

"You think a synthetic is going to stand a chance against whatever was chasing after those 'Engineers,'" Fifield asked incredulously.

"I have some faith in him. Besides, I'm pretty hard to kill myself," Lucy said with a grin.

Fifield raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything. Millburn looked worried. Lucy gave him a reassuring pat on the arm before she walked back to the elevator and put on her helmet. David was already waiting for her in the vehicle bay.

"We can take this car if you want to leave now. It'll be a little while before the others are ready," David explained.

"Sure, let's go," Lucy said before jumping in the side of the vehicle.

Lucy and David rode in silence as they approached the base. What looked to be a skull sat on top of the structure giving Lucy chills. She hadn't noticed it during the storm, and she hadn't bothered to look at the base from the outside. Now she had a sense of foreboding as they approached the structure.

As they got inside, Lucy led him to the room occasionally stopping to dismantle a camera. David gave her an inquisitive look as Lucy searched for the door's ridge. Finally she found it, and the door swung open. David looked around the room briefly pausing to take in the warm air of the room. Lucy continued walking up the hallway and dismantling her cameras.

"David's found the passageway to the ship. You should probably check that out," Anti said in a singsong voice. "He might accidently wake our giant buddy."

"Dammit, David," Lucy whispered and ran back down the hallway.

There was a different entrance on the side of the ship. It would at least allow for Lucy to get the jump on David or hopefully give her time to observe him. Despite their conversation, Lucy had learned nothing about his motives. This could clear some things. Lucy ducked down as she finally made it onboard the ship.

She silently made her way over to the ship's control room and peeked out the hallway. The look on David's face gave her pause as he watched the simulation of the planets; the shock and wonder made Lucy realize that her suspicions were correct. David could likely feel much more than he let on. Soon the simulation was over, and only one planet showed in the hologram: Earth.

Lucy's hands clenched, and she struggled to keep her cool. She had figured out these aliens plans a little while ago. Whatever was on this ship had been headed to Earth, and Lucy had little doubt that it was something disastrous considering what it had done to the Engineers. She backed away and started to quietly retreat.

"Lucy?" David said from much closer than she'd expected. "You knew about this place?"

Lucy turned to face him but took a step back. His eyes didn't seem to be angry, but they did focus on Lucy with a strange intensity.

"Yeah," Lucy admitted with a shrug. "You already know what I think about you guys exploring this place, and I wasn't going to give you more information than you needed... You're better off leaving."

"There's one alive," David said and looked unsurprised when Lucy revealed that she knew with another shrug. "But… you don't think it's a good idea for us to wake him up, do you?"

"No. Not at all. But I suppose you're going to do what you're going to do. Que sera sera," Lucy said and took the last of her cameras from the wall. She held out her hand to David and continued, "It was nice meeting you, but I won't stay to watch you guys get yourselves killed."

David eyed her hand with confusion before taking it and giving it a firm shake. He pondered for a moment before asking, "But where are you going? Another ship? Won't the results be the same?"

"I've got a way for me to leave this place. I just want to check something out first."

Lucy tried to pull her hand away and leave, but he held her hand firmly in his.

"How? You talk about danger for others, but you don't seem to apply that to yourself," David mused.

"It won't put anyone in danger," Lucy replied irritably. "I'm not that much of an ass. To put others in danger for my own goals."

"Why… Do you think that's what I'm doing?" David asked and looked hurt as Lucy finally pulled her hand away.

"Why else are you here? I'm… leaving. You people do what you want. You can't save everyone."

Lucy put the camera in her backpack and started to walk back to the other entrance when she felt a hand on her shoulder.

"Wait," David said before they heard shouting.

"Something bad is happening with one of the doctors. He doesn't look so good. They're taking him back to the ship," Anti said but didn't have any of his cavalier attitude.

Lucy quickly bolted out of the ship and through the passageways. As she got to the exit, she noticed that they'd already taken one of the vehicles. Lucy got inside one of the others as David jumped in. She took off driving as fast as it would allow, and they got to the ship in time to see Vickers holding a flamethrower. Dr. Holloway walked toward her, and Lucy watched in horror as Vickers set him on fire. Dr. Shaw screamed and rushed toward him, but Janek stopped her. Lucy turned back to Vickers in a rage. However, the horrified look on Vickers' face made Lucy look away.

Dr. Shaw was passed out on the ground. Lucy walked over to her and looked at Janek. There was a pain in his eyes as he looked toward Holloway's burning corpse. David picked up Dr. Shaw and carried her inside. Lucy debated her next move. They could likely take care of Dr. Shaw, but Lucy wanted to make sure that there was nothing more that she could do before she left. Following David inside, she gave Vickers a gentle touch on her arm. Vickers flinched at the contact.

"It's done, Vickers. Put it down and go inside," Lucy said in a calm voice before following David back inside the ship.
