Well, they say it's always the quiet ones. Is it just me, or does everybody
find it easier to write at about 3 in the morning? Just me then.
I don't own Andromeda. I know! It's a crime!
CHAPTER TEN
Owwwww!
Trance's head was throbbing painfully. She sat up and rubbed her head.
"What happened?" She said to herself, when it all came flooding back to her.
Gwin had knocked her out with some strange gas. But why? She thought.
"Hello there, Trance!" said a familiar, chirpy voice from the shadows.
Gwin stepped out of the shadows and into the light. Trance tried to get up, but her legs wouldn't work. She couldn't make them move.
She looked up at Gwin pleadingly, "Why are you doing this to me? I've been nothing but nice to you!"
"You've been super nice to me! You let me into your home, introduced me to your friends and I thank you for that." Gwin plonked down on the floor cross-legged in front of Trance. She looked just like a little child, so innocent.
"So why are you doing this to me then?" This is crazy, Trance thought.
Gwin sat back on her hands and started chattering away.
"Well, I guess I better start from the beginning. I've always known what I am..."
"WHAT!" Trance gasped.
A threatening look took to Gwin's eyes, "Don't! Interrupt! Me!"
Trance recoiled back and Gwin continued, "As I said, I've always known what I am. My galaxy is very, very, very far from here. The people in my galaxy didn't like me, "she pouted, "so I left. Though I killed them all before I did."
She's nuts! Thought Trance.
"So I've spent years travelling around different worlds, looking for some people like me. But I never found anyone. Just people who were scared of me. I didn't like them. I arrived at that planet a month before you, I was planning to stay for a while, cause everyone was just so nice to me! But then you turned up, and I knew I had to keep you around. So I invented that story up so that you'd want me to stay with you. And you did! You let me come stay with you on this great ship and meet your great friends!"
"And now their going to be my friends!" She sprang up and walked over to the console at the side of the room. "What are you talking about ?" Trance asked worriedly. This didn't sound very good.
Gwin turned to look at Trance and gave her a big smile.
"Silly Trance! If they're going to be my friends then you can't stay around!"
Trance's fears were coming true. "What are you going to do to me, Gwin? Throw me out the airlock? Dylan, Harper and everyone won't let you do that."
"I won't have to throw you anywhere. I'll get my friends to do that for me!!"
She shouted out-loud to the ship, "Dylan? Harper? Help me! There's an intruder!"
Holo-Rommie appeared in the room, "What's wrong Gwin?" she asked.
Gwin pointed at Trance sitting in the corner, "That girl tried to attack me but I was able to disable her legs. She's an intruder!"
Holo-Rommie turned to Trance, "Who are you?"
Trance was worried, why wouldn't Andromeda recognise her?
Just then, Dylan, Rommie and Tyr burst through the door. All of them pointed their weapons at her.
"Who are you?" Dylan shouted at her.
"I'm Trance! Don't you recognise me, Dylan?" She held her hands out to him.
But still, everyone kept their weapons trained on her.
Harper and Beka ran in just then. Beka also took out her Gauss gun and pointed at Trance.
"What's happening? Are you ok Gwin?" Gwin ran towards Harper, tears streaming down her face. He opened his arms and held her as she cried.
"Oh Harper, this girl tried to hurt me!" She weeped into his shirt.
Harper looked over to Trance with a murderous look in his eyes. "Who are you?" he asked Trance.
"Why do you all keep asking me that! It's me! Trance! I've been your crew- mate for over year! Why don't you remember me?" she looked desperately at each one of them, hoping to see some recognition in their faces. But there was none.
"Tell the truth, 'Trance'. You are not our crew-mate, I think I would remember that. Can you get a reading on her Rommie?"
"No sir, she gives off a mix of signals, I can't even place her. She's seems to be the same as Gwin. I get the same readings off her too."
"Hmm." Dylan mused. "She's dangerous to the crew. Beka? Tyr? Take her to the brig. We'll have a Commonwealth ship pick her up. Harper? Take Gwin to her quarters."
Tyr and Beka each grabbed Trance's arms and started dragging her out of room.
"No!" She screamed. She wanted to kick out at Gwin, but she couldn't. All she could do was be dragged down the corridor to her cell. As she left she saw Harper gently leading Gwin out of the room.
That bitch, she thought.
Before Gwin walked in the opposite direction, she glanced at Trance and gave her a smug, evil smile before crying once again against Harper.
I don't own Andromeda. I know! It's a crime!
