"So, remind me again why we are visiting this place, Boss." Harper asked
Beka as he piloted the Andromeda through the huge expanse of metal, debris
and parts of random dead ships. Beka looked at Dylan with desperation.
"Well, it's only the fifteenth time you've asked so I'll answer, yet
again." Dylan smiled, Trance and Rommie giggled and Rev Bem's eyes filled
with laughter. While only Tyr's face remained serious. "It is because, we
are looking for any spare parts that can be used again, we are running low
on some supplies. So we just thought we could check here before we went
and.." Dylan interrupted Beka, ".checked to see what the scheming, cheating
suppliers had. Even though it most likely wouldn't be any better than the
stuff you see here." Beka smiled at Dylan. Harper looked at Beka and
Dylan in disbelief, as if he had only heard this for the first time. "So,
Boss, what are we really coming here for?" Everyone laughed, except for
Tyr of course.
"Dylan," Andromeda's voice alerted them all from the joke at Harper's expense. "What is it Andromeda?" Dylan asked, Andromeda's face on the screen hesitated. "There is an escape pod flying through the debris. It has a human in it." Everyone's attention was immediately on the screen Andromeda. "Andromeda, tell me the facts about the pod please." Dylan asked calmly. "The human is female, she is badly injured and unconscious, the pod came from a Perseid ship and she." Andromeda eyes stopped looking at the corners of her eyebrows and returned back to normal, "That's it." She finished. Dylan looked around command deck; Tyr was looking straight at him, with a look that they all knew meant that he was curious, Harper and Trance were mouthing things at each other, Rommie was doing something on the keypad, Rev Bem was also doing something on a keypad and Beka was frowning at the screen. "Bring the escape pod into a hangar deck and Trance," Trance stopped mouthing stuff at Harper and looked at Dylan, her full attention focused on his next words. "Take the woman to med deck."
