It took just less then 5 minutes for Dylan and the rest of the crew to get
down the remaining 7 Shadowers but once they had finished every one rusher
over to Harper. Dylan bent down to check his pulse and shook is head when
he looked up.
Harper hadn't yet explained why he was alive and no body asked why. They
all assumed that he wasn't shot in the right place or that he was just
lucky.
Tyr grabbed Harper and threw him over his shoulder and began to carry him
to sick bay. Trance was heart broken. She had lost Harper twice in 1 day,
too many times for anyone to handle. She didn't like that Tyr was being so
rough with him. She almost opened her mouth to protest but she didn't have
the energy. Instead she walked slowly to her quarters.
When the rest of the crew arrived on the medical deck, Tyr lay Harper down on the metal bed. He stepped back and they all just stared, their faces showing as proof of their greif. Beka and Rommie were crying, Dylan had a lost look on his face and Tyr's face kept his hard look. If you didn't know Tyr, you'd think he didn't care at all for the boy on the bed in front of him, but if you spent as much time with him as the crew of the Andromeda did, you'd know it was killing him inside. They stood there, their heads bowed and their emotions in check, for a few more minutes. Beka decided that she needed to be alone, this was too much. She turned to leave when she heard something from the medical bed. It sounded like the sizzle of electricity. The others had heard it too. Tyr walked towards the bed and looked curiously at Harper's port. It had blue currents of electricity surounding it. Before Tyr had time to tell the others, Harper all of a sudden, started to cough. Beka ran forwards. She grabbed his hand, "Harper? Are you okay?" she asked, her voice quiet. "I'm fine, why do you ask?" came the expected sarcastic response. "Just thought I'd ask since you just died." Said Beka, equally sarcastic. Everyone had gathered around Harper now. "I've alerted Trance." Stated Rommie. Just as she informed them, Trance burst into the room. "Harper?" she asked. When she saw that he was alive, she let out a sigh of relief. "How are you still alive, Boy?" Tyr asked, always getting right to the point. "I installed a chip in my data-port that activates five minutes after my heartbeat stops. It sends jolts of electricity through my body and brings me back. That's how I survived the first time I got shot. Too bad it still hurts." He finished. "I'll give you some nano-bots."said Trance who grabbed a needle and injected it into Harper's arm "Better?" she asked. "Much." "What do you call this little chip of yours, Mr. Harper?" asked Dylan. "I call it, 'The-Incase-Harper-Dies project.'" Said Harper with a triumphant look on his face. "Well, that's mighty original of you." Said Beka, sarcastically. Harper made a mocking face at her. "You know we can't make fun of Harper anymore." Said Dylan. "Why is that?" Rommie asked, curiously. "Because this time, Harper's genius really did save the day."
