CHAPTER THREE
Aeryn stepped out of her prowler, feeling the cold metallic feel of a ship echo under her feet. Muttering for Rygel to hurry up, she heard something in the background, turning she pulled her pulse pistol. A young lady with long curly green hair and pure orbs of yellow.
" Do you want to see the mystic?"
Aeryn holstered her pistol nodding, an abnormally long silver finger with a curled blue nail gestured for her to follow. Aeryn walked after her but stopped as a voice shouted angrily," Where the yotz are you going?"
" To the person I came to see."
Rygel grumbled before he too followed after Aeryn.
ON THE PLANET .....
Chiana rested her head on John's shoulder as he talked quietly about anything and everything, about all the people he had known and all the guilt he felt for the deaths he had witnessed.
" You know what really takes the cake, Chi?"
Blinking her eyes he took that as a 'go on' and continued," I really thought that just maybe a human, an alien to this world could have a shot at happiness with Aeryn but like everything in my life, something always has to frell up." Sighing he sifted the grey sand through his hand," That is what's hurting the most, the fact the other me got to share in her love, her passion, her everything and then the idiot goes ahead and dies on her. Leaving me with the Aeryn who could never love me as she did him all because I'm not him, I didn't experience what he did makes me any less of John Crichton!"
Chiana slid an arm around his waist and cuddled him softly, trying in anyway possible to ease the pain he felt so obviously," I just don't know Chi, I've fought so hard for her respect and most of all her love but these days I feel like that useless human she thought I was back in the beginning. I know I'm me but to her I'm not him and I don't think I ever will be. Hell I've even been sniffing some weird root Noranti gave me to try and forget her."
Looking up at him, Chiana said softly," She just needs time, you know what Sebacians are like. Takes them forever to make their minds up." Smiling gently she was glad she had managed to make John smile.
MEANWHILE .....
D'argo hoping for some time alone rounded the corner to the centre chamber, and his eyes flew open. Breaking to a halt he began to slowly turn before he winced as he heard," Kar D'argo!! Oh thank goodness, I had been hoping to get the chance to talk to you again!" D'argo muttered under his breath before turning and saying,
" Hello Noranti, I hadn't been expecting to see you quite as soon.." Coughing he remarked quietly," And had hoped not to."
" What was that?"
Looking up he smiled innocently," Nothing, nothing at all."
Trying not to make a face as Noranti came closer to him and forced her hands into his, he was against his will dragged over to a seat where she wrapped her arms around him and muttered as she laid her head on his chest," Must tell me all, what have you been up to? So long since we have chatted, yes yes."
D'argo sighed and resigned to himself to the fact he was stuck with her for now.
***********
Back on the mystic's ship, Aeryn and Rygel were sat waiting in a red room. Rygel flew around the room, his eyes glancing over anything he might be able to sell for a higher profit,
" Don't even think about it Rygel."
" Think? What ever about Aeryn?"
Aeryn raised her eyebrow before she glanced at him," Don't even for one microt let the idea of stealing from this mystic enter your mind."
Rygel simply shook his head, before gasped as suddenly beside him appeared a tall man with red flowing hair and sharp golden eyes, the man looked at Aeryn and commented," So it is you that seeks my services?"
Aeryn replied," That's correct."
Smiling the man bowed," The name is Jerall, please follow me and I will assist in any way possible.."
Rygel muttered," As long as we have means of paying you, right?" Grinning he looked Jerall
straight in the eye.
Jerall simply smiled and disappeared into a room, Aeryn following before Rygel scratched his ear and followed.
Sitting at a small glowing pool of dark liquid he asked," Who is the one you wish to contact?"
" Our friend John Crichton."
Jerall nodded before he closed his eyes, moving his hands above the pool as he chanted," Fras Porta Theazonata Sakila, Ovatate, Fras John Crichton! ( Come spirits from beyond, the ones you left behind wish to see your face once more, come John Crichton ) "
Aeryn gasped as suddenly the dark liquid leapt from the pool, spiralling around Jerall before they split into the air almost chasing one another. Rygel's eyes widened as slowly the liquid formed a ball and as it exploded, throwing light across the whole room. The John Crichton from Talyn stood in place of Jerall and he remarked,
" Hey guys, whats up? Missed me?"
