After the little fiasco with Tyr, Beka thought it better to occupy her self with her jobs and other miscellaneous things. One of them was scraping the plan to talk to Tyr like she had made herself promise after the night he came to her room. 'There's no way in hell, am I talking to him again' she thought angrily as she slammed down the work tool on the console of the Maru.
" Whoa, take it easy there, boss. I know she's tough but she's still old." Harper said from the doorway. He had actually been standing there for sometime watching the closest thing he had to a mom or a sister. He figured she would prefer sister, made her sound younger. He had approached the doorway with clomping boots and loud swearing.
"God, Harper!" Gasped Beka, "Make some noise, why don't you." The last part was said angrily, she was angry with herself for not hearing Harper and paying too much to her thoughts and because she noticed the hurt look that came over his face. More softly, " I'm sorry Harper. It's just I've had a really bad day and the Maru is misbehaving...." she left the last unfinished.
Harper shook his head and waved a hand in a dismissive gesture. " SO what did the Big Idiot say to make you turn you all rabid?" He asked with his usual tact. Beka looked at him in surprise that he knew exactly made her angry and was mildly amused because she knew 'Big Idiot' was capitalized.
" What make's you thing it's Tyr that made me 'turn rabid'?" She watched him as he made his way to where she had been and pick up the tool and Beka made her way to where he had been standing.
Harper stood and looked at her and shrugged his shoulders then turned back to what he was working on. " I don't know. Usually when someone upsets you it's usually Dylan who doesn't want to listen to you or it's your brother but they only get you annoyed more than upset. There is only one other person who I know that makes you lose your top and right now he is behaving very much the same way you are."
Beka looked at him and realized, not for the first time that despite all his obnoxious behavior he really observed people and could sound so much like the genius he really is by sounding so.....something, she couldn't really think of the word right now because she had to close her mouth before she started drooling on herself.
She was going to commend him on his growing up and then he went and opened his mouth again, " Can I cram things into a nutshell or what? I mean come on, who else do you know who could put your behavior and Tyr's together so simply?" He had on his wide smug smile on his face he wore so many times when he thought of something so fantastic.
Beka walked up to him and looked at him long enough for him to start to squirm, a tactic that Tyr often used on her when she was unwilling to tell him anything. She reached behind him and picked up her force lance off the chair, and before he could understand what she was going to do, she quickly whacked him on the side of his head and left. Beka smiled when she heard the sounds following her where Harper's indignant cries of unjust.
Just when Beka turned a corner inside the Andromeda she ran smack dab into the chest of some one short and looked up only to realize that it was a new kid, and for some reason she wanted to say that his name is Robert Hawk. Of course that could the name of at least ten other guys who she thought were named that.
" Uh, Cap. Valentine, um Mr. Anasazi wishes to speak to you." He sounded nervous, and she briefly wondered if he threatened the guy. " He does?" she made her face blank and kept her eyes clear, but it was hard, when she saw the young man go even paler than he already was she wanted to laugh.
" Um, Yes Ma'am. He said it was important." He looked ready to pass out. 'Important. If it's so damn important why doesn't he come and find me himself.' She thought angrily and then she told him exactly that. She made the guy repeat it and when he got it right the first time she sent him off. She changed direction and went to her room instead, a feral smile on her face. If Tyr wanted to play then they were going to play.

Okay I don't know if this chapter makes any sense because of the daylights savings time thing I'm waking up at least an hour early and now the cold weather has decided to hit Texas and I really really do not like cold weather. Give me a hot day any day, thank you very much. Okay to get back to my point I'm still half a sleep and cranky so this chapter might not make any sense at all.
