A/N: Hi! Well, it was kinda dissapointing to how much feedback I got, but
thank you very much to the person who did! Maybe it just doesn't show up on
the first page so people don't read it lol. Well, the more feedback I get,
the more I'll write. Well, here is the next part…
Aeryn was fuming. Moya had Starbursted for some unknown reason, and she was stranded on a planet with Crichton. Not my Crichton. Just another Crichton. Not the same one on Talyn. Frell the others. They didn't even warn us. They probably even did it on purpose. Well, frell them all. Now what am I going to do? I have to actually look at him and talk to him. He's not mine. He's just someone else.
Aeryn heard running steps from behind, and knew immeadiately that it was Crichton. She turned around to look at him, much to her disdain.
"Aeryn, I just found out-"
"Moya Starbursted away" Aeryn finished, nodding. "So what are we going to do now?"
"Well, it's probably going to take them a while before they get back…" John said, hopeful that Aeryn didn't hear the hope in his voice.
"And it's getting dark" Aeryn said with a sigh. "We should probably find a place to stay."
Crichton nodded. "I saw some taller buildings in that direction while I was looking around. Let's go."
The streets were very crowded, and Crichton was reminded of New York and specifically Times Square during the holidays. It was hard to move around, and the streets kept winding and winding around. Had he forgotten where the buildings were?
The answer was no as they took another turn and found several buildings on one long street. Now he was reminded of Las Vegas. Flashing logos all over the place, and the buildings all had different symbols on them. Aeryn and Crichton headed down the road to see what there was to offer.
Aeryn pointed out a nicer-looking one with some exotic trees around, and the building was white and gold. He had thought she had made a good choice, and he felt it was better if they did things her way, so he nodded and they walked in.
"Definitely Las Vegas" Crichton gasped, looking around once they stepped inside.
There were all different kinds of alien women in very skimpy outfits, with colorful feathers that were as long as their arms. There were bars everywhere, and a luxan who looked quite tipsy muttered to himself, "Hehe, Fellip Nectar…"
Aeryn groaned at the site, and they pushed on through the immense crowds to the far back where the main stand was located with a young sebacean man standing behind it, looking quite intelligent. Crichton and Aeryn were relived.
"Excuse me" Crichton said, coming up to the table.
"Peacekeepers" the man gasped.
"No, we aren't" Aeryn said irritably. "We just like to dress in black leather and carry pulse pistols. We would also like a room."
"Ah" said the man, smiling very widely which absolutely sickened Crichton. "So, are you two just married or-"
Crichton cleared his throat rather loudly.
"Two separate beds, please. This ain't no honeymoon. We want out of here asap."
The man's eyes narrowed, but he nodded. "Right. Level 22 room number 7. Here is your chip to getting in."
"Thank you" Crichton said rather disdainfully taking the chip and turning around to take the elevator.
***********
Dargo was very angry, somewhere in luxan hyper rage.
"Pilot! Contact Crais so we can know what was the meaning of this."
"Of course, Dargo" Pilot said irritably. He was starting to get sick of putting up with Dargo all the time instead of Crichton. Crichton had and excuse of being deficient, but Dargo didn't.
Crais's face flashed flashed onto the clamshell. It looked like his eye was twitching. He was not in a very good mood.
"Crais, why in the hezmana did Talyn Starburst?" Dargo half shouted.
"Talyn has been very edgy lately, Ka Dargo, and I cannot control him from doing what he wishes, or else I am placed into a great deal of pain. Even now, he will not explain to me why he went into Starburst."
"The yotz to all of you!" Rygel said, flying in.
"Shut-up, Rygel" Chiana said on qeue followed by Jool.
"Don't you realize what we have done?" Rygel said, looking infuriated.
"What?" Crais said irritably.
"We have stranded the two people on Moya who most belong together but are always pulled apart. One refuses to talk to the other because she has been through a great deal of pain, and now the other is getting tortured even more by not being able to even have a conversation with her. The yotz to all of you! You have all frelled up their lives even more!
"He is the same John Crichton she loved when the first met, the same man who vowed he'd love her forever. And now it's just even worse. Talyn doesn't give a yotz what Crichton thinks, so he'd just love to stay here forever and have poor Moya, being a good mother, watching over her ill-bred son!"
Everyone was suddenly quiet. Rygel usually didn't do speeches, let alone stick up for anyone. But they all knew that every word he had said was true. Even Talyn didn't try to complain to Crais that a Hynerian dominar had insulted him.
"You're right, Rygel" Chiana's voice croaked.
Everyone silently nodded.
"All we've been doing this cycle is thinking of ourselves, and not each other" Dargo said, looking a bit shameful of himself.
"Maybe we can change that" Jool said hopefully.
