Warning: No not like that nothing gross, it's just going to have a
cliffhanger!!!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Trance had finally reached Harper's quarters, she lifted her hand and knocked on the solid door.
~*~
Harper moaned as he slowly awoke. Looking at his surroundings he realized he must've fallen off the bed again.
He pushed himself up, gathering up his sheets and putting them back on the empty bed. His eyes darted from the bed to his door, was that knock?
He walked over pressed a few buttons and the door hissed open.
"Hi..jeez you DO not look well!!!" Said Trance as she pushed past him.
"I feel fine though.."Said Harper but he was really thinking..
**Just tell her you want those sleeping pills, she would gladly give some to you..you lying idiot!!**
Trance walked over to his bed; she was going to sit down but she changed her mind and decided to stand.
Harper turned around to look at her, she looked worried for some reason..About him? Or was it something else?
"Harper there's something I need to tell you..and I guess it could probably wait, but waiting w/ you well..I mean you could be dead tomorrow.." Trance was having such a hard time trying to get this out.
Harper didn't understand, what was she trying to say..did she..? No that's impossible she could never..or could she?
**ENEMY ATTACK, EVERYONE REPORT TO THEIR STATIONS, ENEMY ATTACK**
Trance looked over at Harper, GREAT she thought, this ALWAYS happens doesn't it!!!!
~*~*~*~
" Who is it this time?" asked Beka
"I'm not sure, I can't detect any life forms. It seems they have some kind of barrier, I can't get anything" answered Rommie.
Trance and Harper came running onto the Bridge half ready for what was going to happen next.
"Beka, the last thing I hate to do is run, but if you could?" Said Dylan motioning to slipstream.
"Sure, I'll give it a try.." Said Beka as she jumped into the large chair, grabbed on to the handles...
"Oh crap" whispered Beka
"What do you mean 'oh crap'?" asked Dylan
Beka looked over to where Dylan was..
"We're going to be heroic and fight"
"Ok, we can do that, never wanting to run anyway" Said Dylan in a low voice
"Right, whatever, let's just get this over with," said Rommie
Rommie kept trying to find out if their mystery ship had any 'people' on it. But it was too late..
"Dylan I've detected about 20 life signs, origin unknown, They're heading this way!!"
Dylan looked rather calm, but you could tell that fear was inside him, coursing through his veins.
Rev Bem, Tyr, Trance, Harper, Beka, Dylan, and Rommie and faced towards the door, waiting.
"Rommie activate internal defense," said Dylan half shouting.
Rommie nodded..than turned back to Dylan.
"More than half are down, the others are still alive and still coming"
A blast of white light shot through the door and onto the bridge, they were here. Harper looked over at Trance she was the closest to the door, he saw that creatures, pure white black veins running all over their bodies, and beady little eyes.
His heart seemed to stop when he saw one of them pull out some kind of gun. The gun was pointed directly at Trance.
"Trance.."At first it was only a whisper "TRANCE, GET OUT OF THE WAY!!" then suddenly he was able to yell, loud enough to get her attention.
He knew he had to do something more, he knew that she might not die, since guns had never killed her before.
Be this time he wasn't just going to let her get shot, NO he was damn well going to go something about it.
Harper watched as the creatures finger slightly pulled back the trigger, he ran, he didn't know what else to do..he ran until he stood in front of Trance.
He could feel it; he had been hit three times, once in the shoulder, once in the chest, and another in his other shoulder.
He fell onto the hard steel; the last thing he saw was Trances horrified face before everything went black.
