Okay, here is my first ever Farscape fic! I tried to resist the temptation and I couldn't, had to try!
I don't own anything, I'm not making money, so please don't sue!
This is set I guess a cycle after 'Fractures.' Scorpius is dead (The wicked witch is dead! hehe!) While Aeryn and John aren't completely back together, they are talking again and getting close. John's going to get lucky, hehe, anyway, I miss Zhaan. So guess what! She's back! Yea, Stark! ...hmm... I think I'll shut up now...

"If any are killed, you all will be killed. Stun guns only. No matter what."
"Yes, sir!" the six soldiers replied. These orders were not uncommon. The seven exited the bay and headed towards Command; Leviathans were often their prey.
***
D'Argo, Aeryn, and John sped down the hall, hoping against hope that they would make it to the bay before the 'scientists' could exit. They were far too late. Rounding one corner they found themselves face to face with seven intruders. Shots were fired from both sides, causing four to fall to the ground. D'Argo, Aeryn, and John lay stunned. One of the soldiers lay dead; John's blast having torn through his chest.
"Take them with us," the commander hissed in anger. The group bound up the three defenders and gathered their weapons. The invaders once again began heading towards Command, leaving their fallen soldier to lay in the passageway. The dead are of no use and easily forgotten.

"Zhaan! D'Argo, Aeryn, and John are unconscious! The invaders are bringing them towards Command!" Pilot said anxiously.
"Well, seal the doors, you yotz!" Rygel shouted.
"Pilot! Tell the DRDs to come with me!" Chiana yelled and ran out the door before it shut.
"Chiana!" Zhaan yelled. She turned and looked at the worried faces of her friends... and realized that Chiana's wasn't the only one missing.
***
Cassandra picked up two pulse pistols and strapped them to her thighs. She wasn't going to wait for those assholes to come to her, she was going to rescue her brother. She picked a pulse rifle and turned only to come face to face with Chiana. "You can help or get out of my way."
Chiana grinned, "I'm going to help." She picked up two pulse pistols. "I'm ready."
"Let's go kick some ass!"
Chiana and Cassandra headed straight for Command, figuring the invaders must have reached it by now. Some DRDs had gathered in front of the door and were firing on the invaders, unfortunately they were suffering heavy losses and weren't doing much damage.
"CHARGE!" Cassandra shouted and ran towards them pulse rifle blazing. They turned towards her and began firing their stun guns. She flung the pulse rifle from her and dropped to the floor. She pulled out her pulse pistols as she rolled out of the line of fire. Chiana gave a war cry and started shooting, distracting some of the soldiers. Cassandra stood again.
When John opened his eyes, he saw a revenging angel. Cassandra walked towards them without flinching, pulse pistols hitting targets without mercy. Out of the six that survived the original attack, only two were alive, and one of those was close to death. The commander lay on the ground suffering from a shot to his shoulder. Cassandra walked to him. She aimed her pistol at his head, prepared to fire. His eyes were filled with fear, but he showed no remorse.
"Wait!" John cried out, desperately trying to get his sister's attention before she did something she'd regret later. Cassandra turned and looked at him, her face a study of pain, fear, and anger.
"Why shouldn't I?" she shouted, tears streaming down her face. She looked at her brother's face and saw compassion and understanding. He was right, she couldn't kill in cold blood.
Chiana came up behind her. "Cassandra?" She placed her hands hesitantly on the sobbing woman's shoulders. Cassandra dropped her pistols at Chiana's touch and turned seeking comfort from her friend. Chiana guided her to where John, D'Argo, and Aeryn were recovering from the effects of the stun blasts.
John held Cassandra while she cried. Chiana sat beside them, her hand on Cassandra's back, giving comfort. D'Argo stood and began checking their invaders for signs of life.
"Everyone else is dead, or soon will be," he said and squatted down by the dying soldier.
Chiana, John, Cassandra, and Aeryn all stood. Cassandra turned away from the carnage she caused and promptly threw-up. While Chiana and John tried to calm her down, Aeryn headed straight for the commander. John looking up every so often to listen to what he said.
"What are you doing on this ship?"
"Peacekeeper trelk!"
She backhanded him across the face. "What are you doing on this ship?"
"My orders were to collect the woman and her rescuers," he spat.
"What species are you?"
"We are called the K'lar'in." He grinned evilly at her. "Have you heard of us, Peacekeeper?"
Aeryn stared at him in shock. 'He was one of the K'lar'in?' She looked up as the door to Command suddenly opened. Her distraction gave the commander the opportunity that he needed. He picked up one of Cassandra's pulse pistols and grabbed Aeryn, using her to lift himself off the ground. Then dragging her up with him. He held the pistol to her throat.
"Aeryn!" John shouted.
"No one move!" The commander smirked. "I must admit, you have proved to be quite challenging. I will graciously admit defeat in this instance, but I will return to claim my Lord's prize."
"You'll never get off this ship," D'Argo hissed.
"Yes, I will. You wouldn't hurt her..." He pressed the pistol harder against Aeryn's throat. "...what was your name, Aeryn?"
"They're the K'lar'in," Aeryn said.
Only D'Argo understood what that meant. The commander began to back up, keeping Aeryn pressed close to him. "We haven't suffered a loss in over a thousand cycles. Yet, a Sebacean male and my Lord's favorite pet, have managed to kill six of our warriors and injure me. I think when my Lord captures the male, he will find he is very similar to my Lord's pet."
"Aeryn..." John said helplessly. He had no clear shot, and even if he had one, there was no guarantee that the bastard's finger would jerk on the trigger, killing Aeryn anyway. There was nothing he or anyone could do.
"Oh, yes, *her*, she is coming with me."
Unable to do anything, Aeryn's friends followed helplessly as the commander dragged her through the halls of Moya to where his ship sat. Aeryn could do nothing to free herself and live.
"John..." Aeryn whispered.
"Aeryn!" John shouted seeing the despair clouding her eyes.
"NO!" Cassandra shouted and started forward. The commander turned the gun on her and fired. Cassandra fell to the floor clutching her stomach in pain. The commander hit Aeryn underneath her chin with the pistol, knocking her out. He threw her in his ship and entered, closing the door behind him. He quickly ran to the pilot's seat and took off.
"Cassandra!" Chiana shouted when her friend hit the floor. D'Argo, Chiana, and John ran for their fallen comrade, when they looked up, Aeryn and the commander were in the ship. John ran towards it, but was blasted back when it powered up. He hit the floor hard and was knocked unconscious.
