Dream:

Everyone's getting ready to take their leave. Jayne looks at Kaylee sadly, he knows she doesn't want to leave Serenity, so she's going to leave everyone behind. He doesn't know where she's going but he wishes that he could go with, but as soon as they foud out what was happening, they decided to break it off. They both agreed that if the crew of Serenity was ever to get back together, they would give it another shoot. If they haven't already found each other.

Jayne sighs with longing watching as she wipes tears that just keep coming. She smugs grease marks all over her face and he just wants to take her into his arms and hold her. He resists the temptation as she looks up and sees him. She attempts to put on a smile but fails.

"Hello, Jayne." she says.

Jayne walks into the engine room and sits in her hammock and says, "I really wish you would tell me where you're going to go, Aiqing(1)."

"You know I don't want to. I-I just can't." she says breaking down.

"Shh." he says getting up and holding her, "It's alright. At least we have until I leave to be with each other."

She nods and wraps her arms around his neck. Looking up at him, all the years of him being a merc are no where to be seen in his eye. He looks at her and sees a young woman in need of love, her brown hair clamped, sticking together with axel-grease and her face is covered with the stuff. He loves everything about it. The way she can find almost any good in anyone. Even him. She presses her lips against his and he presses back.

Simon walks in, looking down at some papers and says "Kaylee, you ready to make your----"

He stops as he looks up and sees that Kaylee and Jayne are in an intimate embrace, Jayne glaring at him.. His eyes wide and his jaw drops.

"I'll, um, I'll just leave you two alone." He says pointing over his shoulder, backing up and fall out the door and closes it quickly.

Leaning against the door, Simon blinks once. Then twice. Then smiles and walks back to sick bay, knowing that she will join him in her own time. Right now she needed to be with the man she loves.

Inside, Kaylee is burying her face in Jaynes chest and he is glaring at the door, wishes he could hit Simon. Kaylee's shoulders start to shake and Jayne looks down.

"Hey, you ain't going to start crying again, are you?" He asks.

He hates it when she crys. She shakes her head and throws it back laughing. He smiles, loving her laugh.

End.

Kaylee stirs slightly and mumbles something that cannot be understood. Her eyes flutter open and she stares into the loving eyes of Teyla.

"W-w-what's going on? Where am I?" She asks.

Teyla looks down at her and strokes her hair gently.

"In a room in the living quaters on the upper deck. Ronon will be in shortly. You will have to tell him what you told us, Kaylee."

Her eyes widen and she sits up.

"I-I can't. He... He'll not want to be with me any more if he found out I lied to everyone, including him."

"You must. If he truly cares for you, then he will understand. And from what I saw on the lower deck, he cares for you deeply."

Kaylee looks at her, eyes brimming with tears. She sniffles and thinks it over. A few minutes later she nods her head.

"Good. I will send him in when he gets here then."

Kaylee just looks down at her hands.

Teyla gets up and leaves the room. She joins Sheppard and Mckay outside on a bench.

"So." Mckay says, "I hear they got rid of the rest of the "Reavers", as Jennifer, or is it Kaylee, I'm confused. I mean what do we call her now, cause we've known her as---mmhmm."

He gets cut off as Teyla slaps a hand over his mouth, as Ronon approaches.Sheppard nods at him as he passes them and opens the door. Teyla catches sight of Kaylee past Ronon and nods to her before the door closes. The three in the hallway fall silent. Waiting. They wonder how Ronon will react to this and what will happen between their friends.

Meanwhile on the bridge, Colonel Cardwell is talking with Hermiod about the other distress signal.

"Do you think that it was more of those...things, for lack of better word." He asks.

"I highly doubt it. It took a while for them to shut theirs off." Hermiod explains, "If anything they some how found out what was going on and shut theirs off in hopes of not being found. That ship is more than likely from this galaxy and they probably know what was attacking as and they didn't want to have a run in."

"Who would." He states, then asks, "Should we go get them?"

"That would be the right thing to do. But I would have to advise not to lower the shield this time until radio contact it made. We do not want a repeat." Hermiod advises.

"Agreed." he says then turns to a pilot (I am just guessing not sure) and says, "Go to the last area where it was transmitting from. When we get close, try and contact them. Keep the shields up to until otherwise ordered."

"Yes, sir." she says and repeats it to the others.

Everyone's gathered in the cock-pit waiting to see what the out come of the battle was. It was dead quiet inside the ship. The radar starts to beep. Wash looks at it and then feels a tap on his shoulder. He turns and looks to see the big ship from before coming back.

"HOLY GO SE!" Jayne exclaimes.

"It gets better." Zoe says.

"What do you mean?" Inara asks.

"They want to open up a commiuntaction channel."

"Alright." Mal says sitting back in the chair.

'blah' is Mal

"Blah" is Caldwell

(blah) is anyone else

"Hello. This is Colonel Cardwell of Atlantis from Pegasus Galaxy. To whom am I speaking to."

'This is Captain Malcolm Reylonds of Serenity from the Yuma Galaxy.'

"Pleasure to met you. If you don't mind me asking, Captain, why did you shut off your distress call?"

'Pleasure to, um, met you too. And we shut it off because you were having a fight with a lot of Reavers. And, well, no one has ever really survived facing that many. 'Cept River.'

"So that is what they are called."

'Yes.'

"Do you still require assitance?"

'Yes, um, we do. But are you sure that you can help us?'

"Positive. There are still a few of these Reavers left aboard, but we're taking care of them and a lot of them were kill by Ronon, good man he is."

(Um, yeah, Name's Wash. But did you just say that, a lot of REAVERS were kill by ONE man?)

"Yes."

(Oh...Okay so we're more than likely going to go on a ship where there is a man who can kill a lot of the most dangerous creatures in the galaxy and probably the 'Verse."

(I got to get me more drunk.)

"I take it your crew agrees."

'...I guess so.'

"Alright then. If you would please follow the dircertions that I am about to tell you, everything should go smoothly..."

As Cardwell tells Mal what to do, something stirs on the otherside of the 'Verse. A ship appears out of hyperspace. The size rivals that of the Dadaelus. On board a woman with whitish skin hisses with a smile on her face showing off sharp teeth. Curling her clawed hand, she signals for her drones to find the nearist planet with life.

Well. That's that. The plot thickens... Well, review and remember, wait ONE month before you threaten me. 'Kay? well have to go work on the other fics of mine. Sorry it's short.
