Chapter 24
"Wait," Trance said putting up her hand. Dylan stopped obediently.
"What is it, Trance?" she didn't answer him, but put her ear to a door.
"Someone's in here! I think it must be the others!" she exclaimed. Just then, Dylan's commlink beeped. He touched his neck. Immediately a voice rang out "Dylan? Can you hear me? It's Beka. Gerentex is onboard trying to take over the ship, and he has captured all of us except for Trance. We think we are in the storage area's but we're not sure. Harper and Rommie are hurt, please answer!"
meanwhile, Trance was trying to open the door. She called out to those inside, "Beka! Can you hear me?"
Beka's voice came from inside the room and from the commlink "Trance! Get us out of here!" Trance looked at Dylan and he went up to the door. After several minutes of codes and fiddling with the mechanism beside the door, it finally swooshed open. The captors raised their heads to look at the door. Harper was still crouched beside Rommie, and he didn't look up. Beka stood up and walked toward Dylan and Trance,
"Thanks," she said. Dylan smiled. He was glad to have his crew back.
Before leaving the room, Tyr went over to Harper and Rommie and lifted her from the ground. As he carried her out of the room, Harper silently followed.
"I'll put her in machine shop 3, and come back later," he said and turned down the hallway. Harper started to follow him, but Dylan put a hand on his good shoulder to stop him. "Harper, you're hurt, go with Trance to the med bay,"
"But..." Harper started to protest, "No but's. You're in no condition to do anything. Get your wound looked after. That's an order," Harper didn't feel much like arguing and knew it was no use so he just sighed and followed Trance.
"Beka, come with me. Let's go and see what Gerentex's position is, before we make a move,"
First they headed to the weapons locker.
