Aww you guys rock!!! (((HUGS)))

Harper groaned and held his neck. The pain around his port was getting worse. Beka continued to walk him up and down the corridor of the Maru.
"Beka can I sit pleeease."
"Do you promise not to fall asleep again?"
Harper tried to make a smart comment but decided to groan in pain instead. "Sure."
Beka led him towards the cockpit once again. She helped him sit down.
Harper tried to smile and distract Beka. He hated seeing that worried look on her face. "You know I don't remember much after that what happened after that. The next thing I remember was being back here and having you walk me up and down the corridor."
Beka snickered. "I'm not surprised I haven't seen you that drunk since."
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++= The second Harper fell through the old curtain doorway Beka let out a yell of surprise. Her captors all turned towards the invader. Beka Valentine never let an opportunity pass her buy no matter how surprised. She jumped to her feet and swung the chair she had been sitting on. She took Two out with that on blow. A kick and a right hook took out the third.
As she reached down to pick up her engineer she looked out in to the bar. The entire clientele sat in stunned silence. Her eyes circled the bar. "Drink your drinks and mind your own business!" she barked at the crowd. The stupor was broken and the noise resumed. It was then that she noticed the purple girl standing near by.
"Help me get him up." She ordered in full Captain mode. She had told him to wait in the Maru. She was both furious and grateful.
The purple leapt forward and put the young engineer's arm around her neck. "We were looking for you."
"I know.' Replied Beka and didn't understand why the purple girl's face broke in to a big smile.
"I'm going to really like you!"
Beka just grunted. "I would like if my crew listened to my orders."
Trance continued to smile as Beka and her walked Harper up the ramp in to the ship. That was how Trance came to join them as a crewmember of the Eureka Maru. She was never hired.it was just that nobody told her to leave.
+++++++++++++++++++++
"Okay I remember now.man I was sick for two days! What a killer hangover!"
Beka let out another snicker. "Serves you right! Besides. you were suppose to stay on the Maru."
"Hey I was being your Knight in shinning armor!"
Beka laughed and rolled her eyes.
Just then the world seemed to twitch. His stomach gave a flip. Try as he might to keep it down he got to watch his lunch in reverse.
Beka was on her feet and at his side once more. "Sorry." He mumbled embarrassedly. He could feel the sweat on his face and tried to lie down. Beka once more stopped him.
"Lets get you to a bunk okay?"
He tried to give a small nod but gave up as bile threatened once more. Beka maneuvered him to his feet and then towards the crew quarters. "Remember how sick you were after we finally did manage to get hooked up with that Persied and his plants?"
"I wasn't that sick."
"Are you kidding! You almost died! That makes this seem like a walk in the park."
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
After some great planning and with the help of their new environmental officer they managed to find out the location of the missing Persied. Once quick raid and they were on their way. They were in the out regions of known space. It would be a week before they reached Sinti.
Harper had recovered from his 'Killer Hangover' and was helping Carrick, along with Trance, to go over the inventory of plants. Some were damaged and a few had been destroyed in their escape.
"Such a shame, such a shame!" Twittered the Persied.
"So these are for some sort of science experiment? I don't see what the big deal is." He let out a small sneeze. When he rubbed his itchy nose across the back of his sleeve Trance made a face. "What!?"
Trance sighed. "All life is important Harper."
"Very right my dear!" carried on Carrick excitedly. "These plants are very special! For years many shamans used them for medicinal purposes. Yet their narcotic effects became well known and then they became highly sot after. As a result the fragile Ecosystem ."
"Okay, okay." Harper held his hands up in protest. "So they're important." Then he let out a sly smile. "So they act as a narcotic huh?" Harper sneezed again.. This time more forcefully.
"Don't even think about it shorty!" Intoned Beka as she walked in to the Cargo hold.
"Aww I wouldn't I was just kidding." Then he gave them all a dirty look, as no one seemed to believe him. "Hey! You guys don't trust me.I'm hurt." Then he sneezed again this time so violently his nose started to bleed. "Damn." He swore. "Not again!"
Suddenly with surprising speed Trance was at his side. "What do you mean again?"
"Harper?" Beka's voice was serious and he knew it wasn't the time for a joke.
"Umm well it's happened a couple times now.I think I'm allergic to the plants."
Trance took on of his grease rags from his belt and applied it to his nose. "I know a bit about medicine and I would like to run some tests."
"Go a head." Agreed Beka not waiting for Harper's consent. "Keep Me informed."
