Part VII: What Happen
D'Argo was alive; he hurt too much to be anything else. He could hear moans from somewhere to the left of him. His eyes snapped open on hearing Scorpius voice.
"Pilot, can you please tell us why you starburst?"
Pilots image came on the clamshell. "I hope no one is hurt badly."
Pushing himself up off the floor D'Argo made his way to stand close to Scorpius watching Pilot. "Why did you starburst, Pilot? You do realize we have left Aeryn and John behind with all of the bounty hunters?" D'Argo demanded.
"Yes, Captain D'Argo. Moya and I regret doing so, but we were only acting on what Commander Crichton had ordered."
The other crewmembers grouped around, rubbing sore spots. "What do you mean ordered?" Chiana asked.
"Crichton said that if Moya is in danger for us to starburst and that they will rendezvous with us." Pilot explained.
Scorpius growled. "The human has no idea about the Norse. John has placed himself in grave danger."
D'Argo glanced at him. "Just how dangerous are the Norse?"
"For them to be captured..."
"They work for the peacekeepers. Then that means the PK's could be close around." Chiana broke in limping to the strategy table.
Sikozu glanced at Scorpious, as he said. "...Or a Scarran Dreadnought."
"Scarran...what do you mean? I thought you said the Norse work for the peacekeepers." D'Argo accused.
"They work for the highest bidder. Some work with the peacekeepers but it has been reported a faction works with the Scarrans. If you remember John is wanted by both." Scorpious turned back to Pilot. "How long will before Moya will be able to take us back to retrieve them?"
Pilot's arms danced around as he checked his instrument panel. "About three solar days. Maybe sooner."
Wrinkles moved about the room seemingly in another world as she mumbled out, "There is another to keep them safe...Crichton's purpose here is still to be acted upon."
Everyone looked at the crazy witch as she made her way out of command mumbling to herself. D'Argo moved to another panel. "Pilot, we have to try to retrieve John and Aeryn. Have Moya do long scans for any other ships as we travel."
"As you wish." His image disappeared.
D'Argo and Chiana held their weapons on Scorpious, without a word he left for his cell.
