Over the area where Brian Disappeared
Kara Thrace and Sunspot were flying over the area where Brian and disappeared from. They were going over plans to see if they could find some way of getting to him and bring him home.
"I'm telling you Sunspot, we have to try to do this. It's the only way of bringing him home." Lt. Col. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace was telling Sunspot.
"Listen Col., I just…WHAT THE FRACK IS THAT LIGHT?!" Sunspot asked as the flash was over.
"Galactica, this is Captain Tregare. Is anyone there?" Both Kara and Sunspot heard the voice say.
"This is Starbuck. How do I know that you're Brian 'Nova' Tregare, and not some Toaster?" Kara wanted to know.
"How about the fact that I'm just about the one of a few people that can beat you at cards, and drink you under the table when I'm in the mood to do so. Plus, I'm planning to marry my girlfriend when I go on leave after this." Brian told her.
"That's Brian alright. Let's head home. And Brian." Kara said.
"Yes."
"There's something's that I have to tell you once we get back on board." She told him.
Brian didn't like the sound of that, but he and Starbuck, and Sunspot headed to the Galactica in silence. After landing, he was greeted by everyone in the flight crew. They swarmed around him asking where he's been all of this time. As he was about to tell them, they heard a clearing of a throat making noise. The crew saw that it was the Admiral, and made room for him.
"Sir, It's wonderful to be back here again." Brian said while saluting the Admiral.
"It's good to have you back here. There's much we have to discuss in private though." Admiral Adama said while returning the salute.
They went to the Admiral's Quarters to tell Brian the news of his parents. He was devastated by this, but he had to continue with his life even though his parents didn't. He then told Admiral Adama about the other Battlestar Galactica, and its crew. He told the Admiral about their flight from the Cylons, and that the Cylons they were fighting were the old model ones. He shown the Admiral the pictures that he had taken of the other Galactica, and how they were also building new Battlestar's right now to protect the fleet and Earth. Just then, there was a knock on the Admiral's door, and the Admiral said to come in.
"Oh my god! It's true! You are back from the Dead!" Maren said while running into his arms.
Brian took her into his arms, and hugged her very much. He knew then that he could not say anything about Athena on the other Galactica. He would have to keep that a secret until the day that he died.
"You may leave now Captain. Report back to duty in two days. You've earned that much at least." William Adama said with a smile on his face.
Both Brian and Maren left the Admiral's Quarters to be together again. They went to Earth and to Maren's place, plus to make the funeral arrangements for his parents. They were going to make the most of the time that he had off to the best of their abilities.
