Chapter 3
Chiana perched quietly on the odd table in the kitchen area, watching Sikozu try and cook. Kalish rarely ate, Chiana knew this, but she forced Sikozu to do something in her spare time besides bug the hezmana out of Pilot. Aeryn had already informed the two of the ships they were approaching but they didn't think anything of it...yet.
"Why is it that every time we have something good going, the Peacekeepers come and frell it all up?" Sikozu asked as she stirred an odd piece of meat. Chiana looked up at Sikozu.
"Because, that's their job...to frell everyone's life all to hezmana," Chiana replied, hopping off her perch and heading towards the door.
"What about the other ship? The one that cannot be identified?"
"I guess we'll find out when we get there..." And with that, Chiana walked out and headed towards the command center.
*******
Kassidy let out a series of pleading sniffles as she watched her module receive heavy fire and did nothing to stop it. What the hell could she do? She had no weapons. She certainly wasn't about to go out there in her space suit and make peace with these unknown "people". Assuming that they were people.
"I'm being punished! I know it! I'm being punished for lying! For stealing! And leaving my parents!! WHY?!?!? WHY ME??!?!?!" She screamed out, looking up towards the heavens. The paniced teen started jumping up and down, trying to think of ways to get herself out of her current prediciment.
She had an idea of why she was being fired on. Maybe because this was their space. Whomever "their" was. She was invading. Atleast that's what they probably thought.
******
We're approaching now. Pilot called over the comms. Everyone had been gathered in the command center including Sikozu and Rygel. D'argo pressed several buttons to get a visual onscreen; they all saw, in horror, the two prowlers attacking the unknown ship.
"John, that looks like your module..." Aeryn said, taking a close look at the ship. John averted his gaze to that ship as well.
"No, how can it be? My module is in the docking bay with your prowler and Lo'la." He said, blinking.
"Aeryn, c'mon, let's kill these frell-niks." D'argo said, heading towards the docking bay. Aeryn looked at John with slight worry then took off after D'argo.
******
"Sir," a female officer said aboard the maurader, "that ship is still not answering our transmissions. I don't believe we can get an accurate wave length to send it though."
A man, dressed in the standered Peacekeeper uniform, turned and replied, "our Prowlers are taking care of the problem as we speak. Although it would be more.....tasteful...if we bring the pilot in. Maybe they know something we need to know."
"Right sir. I'll inform the others." The female officer did an about face and walked off with her hands behind her back as any soldier would do.
******
Kassidy passed out once more as the firing continued. But then it stopped, although Kassidy wouldn't have known this. She layed, almost lifeless, on the floor inbetween the pilot chair and the consol.
******
Pilot got a docking web on the unfamilar ship and hauled it into the docking bay before any further damage was made. Aeryn and D'argo had already taken off and were firing on the maurader and prowlers.
John came dashing into the bay along with Chiana and Sikozu. They all stopped and examined the ship.
"Hey Crichton, isn't that your module?" Chiana asked, tipping her head slightly to the left.
"No.." John said, walking closer to the ship and examining the gold letters that read Farscape-2, "it's not." Frantically, he opened up the cock-pit hatch. His eyes went wide at the person he saw inside.
