Chapter Four: The Naharey
Jason and Rommie were headed to engineering to see the progress Sierra and Harper had made on the engines. Harper, ever the romantic couldn't stop talking of course...
Harper: Your from the future right ?
Sierra: We already told you this.
Harper: Yes I know.
Sierra: Then why do you ask ?
Harper: Well... The Tri-Galaxy Space Race is next week and I was wondering if you knew, you know...
Sierra: Who was going to win ?
Harper: Yes ! Do you know ?
Sierra: I could find out.
Harper: Really ?!?
Sierra: But I won't.
Harper: Ahh come on. Why not ?
Sierra: Because it's called cheating.
Harper: Only if you get caught !
Sierra: No.
Harper: Do you have any idea how much money we could win with that race ?
Sierra: Don't really care. I'm not telling.
Harper: We could split it together. We could but our own planet were we could live together forever.
Sierra: Now I'm really not telling you !
Harper: Don't judge the Harper before you had a taste.
Harper: You know, science isn't the only thing I'm very good in (winking towards Sierra)
Sierra: That might be the most sexist remark I have ever heard.
Jason and Rommie walked in...
Jason: Having fun Sierra ?
Harper: Sure, a blast.
Sierra: I have had better days, Jason.
Rommie: Harper didn't stop talking did he ?
Sierra: Not for a second.
Rommie: Now you know what I have to go trough every single day.
Sierra: How do you keep sane around him ?
Harper: Hey, I'm standing right here you know !
Jason: Don't take it personal Mr. Harper.
Harper: I won't.
Jason: So, how are the engines ?
Sierra: Up and running. He might talk a lot but he is a very capable engineer.
Harper: Thanks...I Guess.
Jason: And the shields ?
Sierra: That's going to take a while. We have to place and activate 16 generators.
Jason: How long ?
Harper: At least a week.
Jason: Well a lot of work takes time. But we are on schedule.
Sierra: Have they started on the weapons yet. No we will start on those when the shields are online.
Jason: When can we expect Transwarp ?
Sierra: Within the next 12 hours. We have started adding Transwarp coils to there slipstream drive.
Dylan walked in...
Rommie: Captain, slipstream is back online and Sierra says we will have the new Transwarp drive up and running within 12 hours.
Dylan: Wow, that went fast.
Sierra: Your technology is more compatible then we thought.
Jason: Once you have transwarp please report it.
Sierra: Of course sir.
Jason: Rommie, you wanted to ask something remember ?
Rommie: Oh yes, if you don't mind Sierra ?
Sierra: Of course not.
Rommie: Jason, told me about the Naharey and that the Avalon was a gift from them, but he said I should ask you why he got it.
Sierra: I wouldn't call it a gift but a way to achieve his mission.
Rommie: Okay, still doesn't tell me why he got it.
Sierra: Because I told them to give it to him.
Harper: You told them ? I always says that all it takes is the help of a beautiful women.
Jason: When your right you are right, Mr. Harper, but there is more to that in this case.
Dylan: Why would the Naharey listen to you ?
Sierra: Lets just say I have a lot of influence among the Naharey.
Harper: Influence ?
Jason: Sierra, is the daughter of the High King of the Naharey Empire.
Harper: Now I know she is my dream girl. Beautiful, smart and filthy rich.
Jason: Not so rich as you might think.
Harper: You just said she's a princess.
Sierra: Yes, but we do not value money on our world or use it for that matter.
Harper: Then how do they pay you ?
Jason: They don't. Not everything revolves around money Mr. Harper.
Harper: Maybe not in Disneyland but it does here.... No money, that sucks !
Rommie: So you just gave him a ship ?
Sierra: This is the first attempt Jason has made to go back in time. Three years ago here tried and failed. On his way home he came to my rescue. The ship I was on then was under attack from Federation Fighters and he saved us. But not before almost killing himself. We took him with us to Naharey, we treated his wounds and for 6 months he lived with us.
Rommie: And you gave him a ship because he saved you ?
Sierra: I gave him a ship because I believed in his mission. I have also seen what the Federation is and what it does to people and if we can change that then it is worth a ship. Besides, my father and he became friends and you don't say no to friends when they ask your help.
Harper: Why did you stay with him ?
Sierra: He saved my live. It's the least I could do.
Rommie: Even if it means never seeing your family again ?
Jason: The price of freedom is always high, but only you can tell if it's worth it.
Sierra: And I think that it is.
Dylan: So how many people are aboard the Avalon ?
Jason: 24 people.
Rommie: All Naharey ?
Jason: No, only Sierra is Naharey. The rest are friends from the colony.
Dylan: The colony ?
Jason: One of the last free places in the universe where the Federation has no power. I was born there.
Dylan: You must miss them a lot.
Jason: Well, like I said, the price of freedom.
The days the followed went fast as everybody was busy upgrading the Andromeda and before any of then knew it 17 days had past. All the upgrades and repairs had been made. The Andromeda was once again ready and willing for battle...
Andromeda: Incoming transmission from the Avalon
Dylan: On screen...
Jason: Ready for a test flight ?
Dylan: Sure
Jason: Excellent. Access the conduit map we gave you and lay in a course to the Mahari Nebula.
Dylan: Course laid in.
Jason: Last one there buys the beer.
Dylan: And here I thought you didn't believe in money.
Jason: That was Sierra, not me. Good luck. We will be right behind you.
A transwarp conduit was opening...
Andromeda: Entering transwarp in five-four-ready-steady-engage !
The Andromeda and The Avalon were now in Transwarp...
Beka: That's it ?
Trance: You expected more ?
Beka: I did.
Tyr: Like what ?
Beka: I don't know... Just more !
Dylan: I just glad we entered it in one piece.
Rommie: Now to get out.
Andromeda: All hands, prepare to exit transwarp. In five-four-three-two- one...
And with a flash they were out...
Dylan: Beka, were are we ?
Beka: Right where we were suppose to be.
Andromeda: Incoming transmission.
Jason: Dylan, welcome to the Mahari Nebula. You're the first people of your time to see it.
Rommie: It's beautiful.
Tyr: And dangerous. Dylan, it's highly unstable. I suggest we don't come any closer.
Jason: He's right Dylan. Stay at least 2 million km away from it.
Dylan: Will do...
Both ships stayed at the nebula for another hour and then made a new jump towards an asteroid field...
Andromeda: We have arrived. We are being hailed. Jason: Ready to test those new weapons ?
Dylan: Tyr's trigger finger is already itching.
Jason: In that case. Lets get started...
PREVIEW CHAPTER 5:
The Andromeda starts testing the weapons and afterwards it is time to say goodbye to there new friends, but will it be goodbye forever ???
