Dee walked back to her quarters and was not surprised when she came back and Amy was still asleep. She sat on her couch and read for a bit until Amy woke up. "How did you sleep?"

Amy stretched and yawned before she responded, "Really well thank you. How did you sleep?"

Dee just shrugged her shoulders and took a sip of coffee. "I slept okay. So today I thought maybe I would keep playing triad with you, and then tonight if you're up to it I was thinking we could have a few girls come over for a real game."

Amy nodded before she walked into the head to get ready for the day. She took a quick shower and put her clothes from the night before back on, and then joined Dee. "Hey uh before we play cards can you do me a huge favor?"

Dee contemplated it for a second before she agreed. "Okay so I kind of would like to have my stuff. I mean I don't have much anymore but what I do have is kind of in my mom's quarters."

Dee rolled her eyes, "And I assume you want me to go to your mother and just demand your stuff."

Amy gave her a shy smiled. "Nope sorry Amy I won't do it. I've already dealt with your mother today and I don't need to do it again. If I go there and piss her off in anyway I won't have to be upset about losing my job because she will probably toss me out the airlock."

Amy hadn't known Dee had lost her job because of what happened and then Amy thought how maybe she had messed something. "How did you lose your job?"

Dee pushed her hair out of her face, "I lost it when I refused to tell Adama where you were. I don't regret it and I would do it again, but just please don't make me go do this."

Amy nodded, "Okay you don't have to deal with her then, but would you at least take me there and help me get the stuff."

Dee agreed and pushed Amy out of their quarters and down the corridor. She stopped right in front of the hatch and turned to Amy. "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Amy nodded her head, "I've got to face her at some point and I want her to see that I am okay but that I am still pissed. Just open the door and let's go in there."

Dee did as she was told and opened the hatch. Amy was shocked at the sight before her. Her mother was surrounded by books, sheets of paper, and notes. Her hair was disheveled and she looked like a wreck. Dee had seen Laura almost an hour ago and she had seemed fairly put together. Dee was about to say something but Amy was on a mission. "Okay so those suitcases there, the dark green ones, those are mine and my clothes are mostly in them. I'll grab my stuff from the closet and drawers, and then I'll get my stuff from the bath room."

Dee walked over and started to move things from one suitcase to another so that she could close some of them up. Laura didn't even seem to notice they were there until Amy came out of the head and announced she had everything. Laura got up and walked over to Amy and tried to hug her but Amy ran around her. "Amy please will you let me at least explain."

Amy sat down in her wheel chair and looked at Dee. "Would you mind maybe taking some of my bags down and then coming back for me and the rest of my stuff?"

Dee made sure that Amy was sure she wanted to be left alone and then she left to carry some of the bags to her quarters. Once the hatch was closed the Roslin women were alone and Laura didn't know what to do or say. "Okay you have until she gets back. So what do you want to say?"

Amy waited impatiently she really didn't want to listen to Laura, but at the same time she didn't want to leave her either. "Amy it wasn't what it looked like."

Amy rolled her eyes, "Oh please give me a break mother. Every time you've said that it's turned out to be exactly what it looked like."

Laura's face showed how ashamed she was, "Okay and this last time I know we were… well you know."

Laura noticed how Amy looked away at the mention of her and Lee's indiscretion. "Amy please try to understand… Bill and I had just broke up and you had left me. I'm not using it as an excuses I knew what I was doing, but I was feeling alone and insecure."

"Seriously you're using your loneliness and insecurities to justify this."

Laura had tried to leave Amy and her past out of everything but she was desperate to get Amy to understand, little did she know that Dee had returned and was waiting outside the hatch. "I never disowned you when you told me you were pregnant. You never even offered up an explanation, in fact I don't even know how you got yourself into this situation."

Dee felt defensive the second she heard Laura attack Amy for getting pregnant. She didn't care what was going on, or if this was their way of communicating. All Dee felt she needed to do was get Amy out of there. She grabbed the rest of Amy's bags, and then went to push Amy away. Amy had tears in her eyes and was speechless. Laura had never taken a dig at her like that no matter how bad of a fight they were in. Dee handed Amy a small suitcase to place on her lap and then tuned her away. "Amy wait… Dee please stop."

Laura followed them out of the hatch into the corridor and ran right in front of them. Dee was not a person who used physical force unless necessary but she felt that in this case it was needed. She grabbed Laura by the arm and dragged her back into her quarters.

"You should be ashamed of yourself. It's not enough that you broke the heart of the most decent man alive, but you slept with his son and had your daughter keep it a secret. Then you devastate your daughter with your lying and prancing around like a slut, but now you have to attack her like that. Just because you're the President doesn't make you a god. Do her at least one favor and leave her alone."

Dee turned around and continued to push Amy leaving Laura to collapse into tears once again. Laura didn't know what to do. She couldn't go apologize because she didn't know where Amy was going, and she knew that it wouldn't matter. Laura had gone to far and it scared her to realize how much she was losing because of her own mistakes. Laura got on the Comm... and called the only person she could think of. "Hello Billy, I need you to schedule a pilot to take me to Colonial One in about an hour. Also I think maybe you should pack your things if you plan on living near by because I won't be returning to Galactica."

Billy hadn't questioned her at all. Laura packed all her things and waited and sure enough within 45 minutes Billy showed up with two pilots to help carry her bags. She got into the raptor and was upset that she had to leave the one place she felt the safest, but she knew she wasn't welcomed anymore.

The flight was short and Laura was greeted by the Captain who had told her that the living quarters they had created where still there for her. Laura went into the curtained off area and began to unpack her bags.

Once she was done she pulled out the scrolls even though she didn't really want to. All the scrolls had seemed to do so far was bring her trouble. The thing that kept sticking out to Laura was a part that talked about the tomb of Athena on a planet called Kobal. Just as Laura was about to dig deeper Billy rushed in. "Madam President the Admiral's on the phone."

Laura was shocked and hesitantly picked up the receiver. "Bill?"

Laura waited and could hear commotion in the background. "Madam President I thought it would be best to tell you that two of my pilots stumbled across a planet during a scouting mission."

Laura's breath hitched, she was upset that Bill hadn't called to talk but was glad that a plant had been found. "Is it habitable?"

Laura didn't want to get her hopes up but if the planet was habitable then it could be an excellent break for the fleet. "It appears to be habitable. I've sent two crews down to the surface to check it out."

Laura smiled at the good news. "Sounds good Admiral please keep me informed, and would you mind maybe sending some pictures over."

Bill agreed and got of the phone. Laura knew that he was still upset but she was glad that they would still be able to work together. When Billy showed up with the pictures of the planet Laura was surprised to see Elosha following. "Elosha what are you doing here?"

Laura stood up and walked over to hug the priestess. "I take it you haven't heard yet?"

Laura looked around confused. "I was actually just coming back to tell her, I had to go to Galactica to pick up the pictures of the planet."

Elosha nodded to Bill. Laura was so confused, "Okay you two what don't I know?"

Elosha sat down in a chair and had Laura sit across from her. "Laura one of the raptors sent down to the planet was destroyed entering the atmosphere, the other crash landed."

Laura felt terrible at the loss of the crew on the ships. She sat in silence until Billy handed her the picture of the surface and she was amazed. "Oh my Gods. Have we talked to the crew that landed, have they made contact with the people there?"

Billy and Elosha looked to Laura and Elosha seemed concerned. "Laura what are you talking about?"

Laura pointed to the picture where she had seen building, but now there was nothing. "It was right there. There was building all along here. This right here looked almost like the Government building on Caprica."

Elosha looked down at the picture, "These are ruins Laura. Oh Gods… Laura I think this maybe Kobal."
