When I'm
Gone
Chapter Four: Missing in Action
Why don't I ever listen to reason? The snow was whipping up into small cyclones all over the place, reducing visibility to zero, and thrashing the few area of exposed skin on Jonathan Archer's face until he bled. Goddamn! We've been out here for almost an hour! Where the hell are they?
"Hey, Sen-te, how much further to this mine?" Archer paused, "Sen-te?" He turned around looking for the tall Azuure, but he was nowhere to be seen. "Sen-te!" he yelled. But the sound just got lost in the wind.
Shit!
~~~*~~~
"Archer! Archer!"
Where in Windom's name has that boy gone? Sen-te shrugged and continued looking.
~~~*~~~
At long last the snow was reduced to light flakes, and the clouds began to clear. Tse-la stretched as she exited the mine. "Well now, that wasn't so bad, was it?"
T'Pol didn't answer. Instead she said, "Is that someone you know?"
Tse-la followed T'Pol's gaze out over the dull ice plane. "Sen-te?!"
The lone figure hurried towards them. "Tse-la, T'Pol, are you two alright?"
"Yes, we're fine," Tse-la cast him a quizzical glance, "what are you doing out here?"
"I was looking for you."
"What? Why? You know I can take of myself! And why are you here alone?"
"I'm not…well, that is to say, I wasn't."
"What happened?"
"We were separated in the blizzard."
"Was it Captain Archer?" asked T'Pol quietly.
Sen-te cringed. "I'm afraid so."
"Will he survive?"
"Not for long."
"Then what are we waiting for?" inquired Tse-la. "Let's go find him!"
