Title: again, duh. Chosen before i knew about Doctor Who.

Episode Thirty-Eight

"The Parting of the Ways"

"You can't come with us?" Francoise was fairly disappointed by this news.

"Your mission is not my own," Lekika told her over the viewscreen. "I will be reassigned in time, perhaps with a similar purpose as your own." She smiled kindly at the four beings on the Taiyou. "Until then, it has been an honor and a pleasure to be of your service, Princess Francoise, Osama bin Goaten, Zaldorp and Bugsy. I am sure that our paths may someday cross again."

"Thank you," Zaldorp said sincerely to the three people on the BRO7/9. "For everything."

"Bringing me back from the dead for instance," Osama added with a wry grin.

"It was our pleasure to help the Warriors of the Power," The Facilitator replied. "Hiki ka lokomaika'i o ka Akua ho'omalu 'oukou."

Bugsy frowned. "Huh?"

"It was a blessing," Francoise explained.

"Well, why couldn't he have said it in English?" Bugsy griped. "It's entirely rude to speak in other languages like that. I take offense. Ow!" He glared at Francoise and rubbed the back of his head.

"The forward conduit has been routed to take you directly to Dewhickeymafloppet," Lekika told them. "Good luck to you all."

"Thank you, Bugsy of Earth," said Keleko, formerly Three of Twelve, and the communication was disengaged, leaving the four once again on the Taiyou, alone.

Osama turned to look at his three companions "Off we go?"

"Once more unto the breach it would seem," Francoise said and engaged the engines of the Taiyou, maneuvering it towards the conduit which would finally bring her home.

To Be Continued...

Trivia and Spoilers: I forgot what the Facilitator says in translation. It is a nice blessing though. Neener neener.

-This is the second time the crew has said good bye, previously separating from the 7th fleet.
