EPISODE 4: CELEBRATING THE NEW

DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN Dark Angel and cause FOX don't want it any more, no one does. However credit should be given to CAMERON and EGLEE for the Quality Television they gave us for Two Seasons and the DARK ANGEL Creative Team for shaping the characters which I and many other's accepted and loved as our very own. Thankyou so much for that and hopefully (if it is at all possible), we may be able to see Dark Angel again.

Logan sat at the table and admired the meal he had created as his most closest (well most of the people there were his most closest) friends started picking at a beautiful array of chicken, salad and pasta. Logan had certainly outdone himself creating various Cale Culinary Miracles. `

"It's pretty good having two home cooked meals in a day!" Alec remarked to Asha who smiled while eating her meal. Alec and Asha had eaten a meal together that very evening and were having trouble fitting all the food into their stomach's, however they had decided to be polite and try and eat as much as they could for Logan.

"Everybody enjoying the food!" Logan asked the entire table whom all raised their glasses response and there was various "Yeah's" as well coming from the member's eating the food.

"You know there has gotta be some reason why we haven't got together like this before!" Max stated to the group sitting at the other head of the table next to Original Cindy and Jondy.

"I guess there is the fact that we are always saving our long lost relatives Max!" Alec stated while gulping down the last of a red wine, which he grimaced at tasting. "Logan, you wouldn't have a good scotch would you?"

"Yes I do, it's in that wine rack over there. Take you pick!" Logan pointed to the Wine rack in the kitchen and Alec went over to it and eyed the collection.

"Logan, you are a good man!" Alec thanked Logan having now sat back in his seat and offered Logan some scotch that he accepted.

"Can I please look at your CD collection Logan?" Jondy had finished her meal and wanted something to do while the rest of the table finished their meal. After not having had a proper meal in more than three weeks, Jondy had eaten so much food in the quickest time Max had ever seen. However she remembered that Jondy had always been a big eater in her Manticore days.

"Sure, it's just over there. And you can put on whatever you'd like because I'm getting tired of playing my Mozart CD." Jondy smiled and went over to the collection.

Jondy eyed the collection and noticed that Logan had a CD that was one of her favourite of all time. It was an old CD, however the CD didn't look like it had ever been played. It was a CD by a band called Silverchair called Diorama! It was release in the year 2002 and Jondy was 2 when it was released and she was at Manticore.

"Hey Logan, when did you get your Silverchair CD?" Jondy asked from across the room and Logan looked up.

"Who?"

Jondy put the CD into the CD player and pressed play. Then she walked over to the table and brought the CD over.

"This one. It's one of my favourites and it's an Australian band. They're like in there 40's now but they were once really successful and had a heap of number one records in Australia!" Jondy stated while Logan eyed the cover.

"They're tight!" Alec stated while listening to the track The Greatest View.

"Yeah, I think one of my informants may have given to me years ago. Might have been Kylie!"

"It's a really beautiful album. Plus I absolutely love music and I play a little and this has been one of my biggest inspirations for my writing!" Jondy looked inside the cover and Max also glanced inside.

"So not only are you like going to be one of the world's great doctor's, you write as well. Is there something you don't do!" Max asked having now finished her meal also.

"Um, I don't sleep that much!" Jondy responded.

"Neither do I" Max retaliated. "That mean's Jack."

"Logan, where is your nice and clean ladies room" Logan pointed down the hall and Cindy got up and left the table.

"Logan, I must go right now and sleep cause I haven't had much of that stuff for the last week. So thankyou very much for the meal and congrats on the job. See ya later everyone!" Alec got up and shook Logan's hand and left the room.

"Logan I think I should go too, as I too am very full and I have to do that S1W thing we discussed about this mourning tomorrow! Thankyou also for the meal." Asha kissed Logan on the cheek and said bye to the table. "Seeya!"

Asha left the room as well and now only Joshua, Original Cindy, Jondy, Max and Logan remained.

"Doggie Dog, I think it's time we leave the good folks alone so Original Cindy's going home with you!" Original Cindy got up and Joshua did the same.

"Good meal Logan. Good to meet you Jondy Little Fella and Max will see you tomorrow!" Joshua Got up and both Original Cindy and himself left.

"So, I think I'm going to help you with the dishes Logan and Max can dry." Jondy started gathering dishes and Logan stoped her.

"Jondy, you are my guest and plus, I have a dish washer!" Logan continued gathering the dishes Jondy had started to collect and left Max and Jondy alone. They both went into the lounge room and sat down to talk.

"So tonight was alright wasn't it. This dinner wasn't too much to quick, cause I know you don't know half these people and all but they are my friends and I trust them so I thought that this might be a good way of keeping your mind of what happened!" Max asked Jondy while pouring the last of the wine into Max and Jondy's glasses.

"Yeah, it was a great way to keep my mind of things. So tonight where am I going to stay, cause I thought you said I was staying here at Alec's" Jondy asked and looked around.

"Tonight we're both going to stay here. I cleared it with Logan before and he said that we could both stay here in the spare room cause he has one of those blow up bed's. I'm going to set it up in the spare room and you can take the bed and I'll take the blow up bed. And before you object I like blow up beds. Then tomorrow we will hit the shop's and get you some clothes and you can decided what you want to do next."

"So it's settled?"

Max put a hand on Jondy's thigh and said in a reassuring tone. "It's settled, so let's go and get ready for bed!"
