So I've decided that I would be nice once again and that this chapter is a filler. I needed to get Leoben and Kara off of Prometheus so here we go…
Wow thanks guys. I love the reviews. Glad to see so many of you reading this.
Sasusc: "dies" runs off to save Sasusc with a AED... CLEAR!! LOL. "Are you using the stuff we learn at the end of season 3 into this mix?" Yes just a little bit not too much. "Are we going to see more smut? puppy dog eyes" That will be a hellz yeah! LOL
BDSanta2001: I would too, if someone told me that while I was falling asleep. Shivers.
Betty: I was getting tired of that same stuff too. That's why I love my little twists.
Uberscribbler:"And here I thought you couldn't top the horror and pain of the previous nine chapters.
I don't think I've ever read anything that has left me THIS cold and unsettled in my life (and I'm a horror fan)." Thanks I was going for that dark but yet romantic love feeling between them. By the way I love your stories.
Thanks for the reviews. Keep them up the more the faster the story goes up... Though I'm about to do another round of radiation here soon. So the next one won't be up as quickly. But I'll get it up ASAP.
And here we go...
The light knock on the bedroom door was all he needed to hear to wake him up. Leoben slipped out from under Kara's arm, kissed her on the lips. He saw that she was still in a deep sleep from the even breathing and the way her chest rose and fell. Raising from the bed, threw on his robe and opened the door. "Is it ready?"
She nodded. "It is. Is she?" Six looked over to the sleeping form of Kara. This Six had dark brown hair to make it more difficult for the humans to notice that she was a Cylon in the first place. Her hair was tied back in a ponytail, and that's when Leoben saw the uniform. Apparently his idea had worked so far.
Leoben shook his head no. "Not yet, I haven't given it to her yet." He reached into his pocket and pulled out the syringe. Popping off the cap, he pushed out the air until the drug streamed out.
"Do you not trust her enough to come straight to the Basestar without?" Six asked as she sat on the bed.
"No I trust her." Inside he really did not want to do this to her. What if this back firers? She could hate me and we'll have to start all over again.
"How long does it last?" Six asked snapping Leoben out of thought.
"Simon said up to four hours." Slowly walking over to Kara, he sat on the edge of the bed looking at his love. A piece of her hair had fallen on her face, she looked at peace. He pushed the syringe into her neck and injected her with the drug. He placed the syringe on the nightstand as she woke up.
"Leoben?" Kara whispered.
"It's okay just go back to sleep." He placed a light kiss on her forehead as she nodded.
"Okay." And just like turning off a light, she was out.
"Now is she ready?" Six asked impatiently.
"Yes…" Leoben grabbed the stolen flight suit from underneath the bed and put it on quickly. Now both Six and Leoben looked like Galactica Raptor pilots helping out with the sick people on Prometheus. Which was true, Cottle was sending out pilots to bring in the sick to be cured and then returned back to their ships. Leoben was back by Kara's side, he slid his arms under Kara's knees and shoulders to pick her up. Cradling her into his chest, all three of them left the room to board a Raptor to take them to the Basestar that awaited them.
Lee, Sam, Helo and Sharon stood on the hangerdeck of Galactica, suiting up to board their Raptor to take them to Prometheus. Adama had finally let them continue the search for Kara, even through he knew she was gone. He even told Lee that it was a waste of time. She was either dead or with the Cylons, once again as their prisoner. No soldier should go through what Kara had.
Helo looked at Sam, "You okay man?" He nudged him with his shoulder.
"Yeah, why?" Sam asked as he fastened his holster on his hips.
"You look kinda out of it. That's all. Something on your mind?"
"Kara… It's like I can sense that she is still out there in the fleet." He stepped up on the Raptor and took his seat.
"Sense?" Sharon asked as she took her seat as pilot.
"I don't know, it sounds strange doesn't it?" Sam asked as the Raptor was being loaded to the lift.
Not strange for a Cylon, she said to herself. "Yeah it does. I guess it's a bond between the two of you." She lied knowing what exactly Sam was talking about. She had that feeling back on Caprica with Helo. The mag locks released the Raptor, Sharon took over and they were on their way to the Prometheus.
Prometheus loading bay had become the next busiest hub since Could Nine was no longer in the fleet. Slipping through it was easy enough for Leoben and Six to get Kara out of the Colonial Fleet. Someone did ask them if they did need help with her. Six just told them that she was sick and they are going to take her to Galactica to see Doctor Cottle. The man bought it and left them alone.
"There it is," Six said as the Raptor came into view. She opened the hatched then helped Leoben with Kara.
They landed on Prometheus with speed. To Sam the hatch seemed to take its sweet time opening.
"What's the rush Anders?" Lee asked as he came up behind him.
"Nothing, I just want to check this ship quickly and head home." Sam scanned the hanger deck and spotted another Raptor.
"Who else is on the Prometheus from Galactica?"
"No one, why?" Lee asked as he hopped down from the Raptor, followed by Helo and Sharon.
Sam pointed to the Raptor in the corner, the Raptor where two people in flight suits were placing a long-haired blonde woman in on a medical cot. Sam's eyes focused on the woman's left arm as there was a black tattoo on it. His eyes widen when he saw the pattern of that tattoo matched his own as the hatch door was lowering. "Kara!" He shouted as the hatch closed and the Raptor was being towed out to the launch area.
Leoben's ear picked up the scream of Kara's name with ease. He was grateful that they had a head start on Galactica and Samuel Anders. He looked out the window to see Sam pushing his way through the crowd trying to load up on their shuttles. You're too late, Anders, he said to himself as the Raptor was finally inside the launch area and the doors shut behind them.
"This is Raptor two-five-niner waiting for launch." Six said through the wireless.
"Raptor two-five-niner you are cleared to launch." The LSO officer said back. The bay doors opened and the Raptor was free.
Six started up the FTL's on the Raptor. Leoben looked back at Kara. "Now we are free…" he whispered to her as the ship jumped to the Cylon fleet. "Your destiny… It's calling for you."
Sam pounded on the doors as they shut just before he got there. "Frak! Frak! Frak!" He watched as the Raptor cleared the bay and saw it jump. Lee, Sharon and Helo shortly arrived just as the bay doors closed to pressurize the loading bay for the next shuttle to leave.
"Sam what the frak is going on? Freaking out like that in the middle of a crowd? Have you lost your mind?" Helo asked.
Sam turned around. "Kara!... Kara was on the Raptor. I saw her. They still have her. And now she is really gone." Sam grabbed Lee by his shirt. "This is all your father's fault. If he…"
Sharon pulled out her sidearm and held it to Sam's head. "Let go of him, Anders."
"Sharon!" Helo screamed.
"Sam, let go of him." Sam did as told and Sharon dropped her sidearm. Lee backed away and stood a distance from Sam right next to Helo. Sharon stood where Lee was and looked at Sam in the eye. "Kara will come back."
"How… how do you know?" Sam stuttered as it felt once again that his world was being torn apart.
Sharon closed in the space between them and whispered. "Because I can sense her too. We Cylons can sense the one's we love or loved. You have to let her go or it will drive you crazy. Just like those nightmares you had last night of her."
Sam's eyes widened and whispered back. "What? How do you know about that?"
"We are all linked Sam, we transmit our thoughts when we want them to be heard."
"I am not a Cylon!" He stated loud enough for her to be the only one to hear it.
Yes yes I know. "Now we are free" is from Gladiator. That's one of my favorite movies. I was watching it while I was writing this chapter. And I thought it fits.
See that little small review button on the left side. Press it, it does something wonderful. LOL Thanks!!
