Lost Tribes Of Kobol
By : Fire Star
Part 36 Ghosts and Gifts
Titan entered the Commander's Estate. The Gates were open blasted by laser fire. He frowned and wondered if the cylons had beaten them to the supplies. The patrol moved forward and he entered the house. Surprisingly the door had been closed firmly and it appeared as if no one had been here for a while.. He noted that there was evidence of Cylon activity throughout the house. He moved with care just on case. He was shocked to find a destroyed centurion laying in the middle of the library. There was blood near the desk and he followed the old trail out. Out side he wanted to weep as there were skeleton of several people all decapitated. There was also three more centurions. At least they had taken them along. " Form a burial detail."
His men moved to do as he ordered. He leaned down and removed a dog-tag. Sgt Henrico. Titan felt a tear form as this old man had been on Adrianna's staff. He was a cook who had retired from colonial service and Adrianna had hired him to work in her home. Clearly he and the others had tried to defend the house.
"Rest old friend. I am sorry we did not get here sooner." Titan said he returned to the library and went to the wall. The house felt like a museum and was silent as a tomb. He pulled a book out and a hidden door appeared. Titan went to the door and hit in a code. It swung open revealing a stairway. So she did build it. He thought. Well let's see what she left behind.
Titan took a torch and headed down the stairs. He was followed by several of his team members and his wife. Anna was uneasy but knew that Titan needed her support. As they entered large cavern she gasped out in shock.
"By the Lords…"
Titan grinned and once more thanked the God's for paranoid personalities of many of the first families. Here was a treasure trove. Munitions to fight a small war and food and fuel. If the cylons returned they were going to get a nasty shock.
Part 37 Awe
"Titan how can this be?" Anna asked her shocked voice almost a whisper. It was an awesome sight to see. The cavern had to be over a Kiltar in length and the breadth almost as large. There hidden in this place was a arsenal. For the last four yearns they had been scrounging weapons and supplies and here was enough to fit an army.
He had touched his torch to the wall and it triggered the lighting system.
It must be on batteries, Why did I not try to come here sooner he thought. Titan however knew the answer. It had been fear. The one time he had attempted to scout the area there had been thousands of Cylons in the area. He knew second guessing the choices they had made was a waste of time and effort.
" Kov , Anna looks like we are in business. I knew the Commander did not trust the council to supply her ship but this exceeds even my wildest dreams. Well lets see if we can contact the other cells. It looks like we have clothing and food to last quite a while and enough munitions to give the tin heads a fight if they come back. Kov look and see if we can find an interplanetary communicator. I want to know if anyone on the other colonies survived."
"If we survived maybe they did too. You know that there bases hidden. A few might have made it." Kov said "I just hope it is enough to rebuild."
"I am on it. Lord… I do not know where to start. Titan there is a generator and enough Tyluim to run it. We can have lights. Off the batteries in a centon or so. Wow this looks like central supply." Kov said
"Yes, let's start checking it out. Lord… There is even a shower area. I wonder if the water works." Titan said as he flipped it on. The shower came to life and he jumped back. "Damn that is cold."
Anna began to laugh. "I bet the hot water heaters will fix that. You know we can all be clean again." She grinned and so did the others. "Joss go tell the others we should plan on spending the night here. "
"Agreed ." Titan said "But close the house up and lock the doors. Let's not take any chances."
Several centars latter Titan and his people were all clean and full. They had enough supplies to last a long time. Titan's called out to the other small cells of humans. They would all meet in the central city in the morning. He was determined to begin rebuilding but, it would take a lot of work. He did not tell them of their find but decided to surprise everyone. With luck they could begin again now that they knew they had weapons to defend themselves. Titan new that in this area alone there were several thousand survivors. He just hoped they would be willing to work to rebuild and had not lost all hope.
--------------------
The message came in. Kenner was wary but knew Titan was right. If the Cylons were gone they needed to regroup and rebuild. He called his group together. They were all ragged and tired.
"Titan called. I think they found food and supplies. The question is do we risk meeting then?"
"Kenner we gotta have more food. I think the Cylons are gone at least for the micron… We gotta risk it. Maybe they got meds. You know the little ones is all sick." Hilary said
"Yes, Kenner I have to agree. Maybe we can find a safer place to be." Howell said "I mean maybe we can find a way to communicate … Find out if anyone else is out there."
"I am not certain I want to know." Petra said " Do we really want to know if the others survived. I mean it is not as if we can reach them. Even communicating with Titan's people is a risk. What if the Cylons just pulled out to trick us." She said fearfully. "Maybe they thought we come out and then they catch us all."
"Petra it has been a sectre I think they are gone. In any case we still need food ,fuel new supplies. If Titan has it… Well we can trade maybe. I do think maybe he has a plan." Kenner said "Titan he … he is a wise one he is. I'm just a country boy."
Petra smiled. "A country boy that kept us poor city folks alive. Look Kenner without you we have been dead. I had no idea how to hunt. Or how to fire a weapon. You helped save us. I trust you."
"Well then I say we risk it. Worse case we just get to see others. Maybe be… maybe we get lucky. Titan he knows stuff. So maybe he found supplies. He was military aye know."
"Ok . " Howell said "Hilary pour me some soup. I go along Kenner." One by one Kenner's little band nodded. All twenty would go meet Titan in the morning It would be a three centar walk to the city but, it was worth the risk. Sometimes just seeing an other living person was worth the risk.
Kenner laid down on the leaves that made his bed. He knew his people counted on him. He sometimes was shocked at how they had come to defer to him. In the old days he would have been dismissed as crazy. Yet after the destruction his very eccentricity made him valuable. He had once been a colonial warrior of great renowned. He had been a Ranger highly decorated elite special forces. To may missions and to many lost friends drove him to hide in the thorn forests. Then the destruction had come and people had fled to get away from the Cylons. He had not been able to watch them die. So Kenner outcast and hermit became reluctant leader and guardian. He had not saved everyone … he had tried but he was only a single man. He saved over twenty and they had kept alive and even managed to destroy Cylons. Now however he was tired and just hoped this was actually a break that they had all prayed for. With they Cylons having left the planet maybe they could all come out of hiding? He wondered if they would have a chance to rebuild. He knew of a few ships that could be repaired and would fly again. If the Cylons were gone they may have the time they needed to fix them and escape or defend their world.
Noah watched as Maya expertly diapered his youngest child. All attempts to escape had been thwarted and the loud screams voiced her displeasure. This one was going to have a mind of her own. He chuckled thinking how lucky he was. He came in carrying the boy. " Care to trade my dear?"
Maya looked up. " I get it you just want them when they are all clean and sweet smelling."
"I guess you found out my deep dark secret. I hate dipper duty." Noah said
"Well dear husband you should have thought of that before the children came. I will however take pity on you. Hand him over. " She said laughing. "See if you can get her to quiet down she is not happy. She definitely takes after you Noah wanting her own way."
Noah chuckled. "Actually she reminds me of RoAnn so she takes after you."
Maya laughed as she handed her daughter over and took her son. She expertly took off his soiled clothing. "Well as much as I love you my husband these our the last of our children."
Noah walked over and kissed her cheek. "I know… I am a bastard for wanting more children."
Maya smiled "I love you baby." She returned to changing their offspring. " So what is next? Has Adama decided when we leave for the colonies or Earth?"
"Soon, I think he just wants the last of the repairs done. I know I would rather head for Earth. Adama is uncertain. I think it is possible to do both. I admit not really wanting to see the devastation."
Cain smiled as the news came in. The fleet was once more at top strength. Soon ,soon he would hunt the Cylons. Cain was certain that they had not seen the last of their enemies. His instincts told them the final battle was yet to come. He looked over his crew and smiled fine warriors ever one. He longed to end the fight because for the first time in yearns he had hope. He had a reason to stop fighting. He looked over and watched as Diana spoke softly with Sheba. She had flown over to eat dinner with them. Cain found he wanted a family. A second chance to make up for his past mistakes. A chance to be a good grandfather to the children Sheba would have. Diana winked at him. Well he was not that old. Maybe he would follow Adama's example. A second family. Diana seemed willing to try. Hades hole he would be a fool not to grab happiness. However for Diana and his family to be safe the Cylons had to become extinct. Only then would he feel safe enough to relax and be a husband and father with comfort. He did not want to make the same mistakes again. He wanted to go home. Yes the colonies would be a mess. He shivered but he wanted his children to walk on their worlds. He would speak to Adama in the morning. "
Take over Colonel " Cain said as he went to join his family. The worries could wait. He was just going to enjoy his lady and daughter. He decided to let them drag him away. After all he did not want them thinking he was going soft.
