ok, this story should be wrapped up in the next 10 chapters or so. ill be working on the sequel/prequel with Innogen. Anyway back to the story ok?short chapter,sorry.

************************************************

Anjel laid comfortable in the pilot's chair of the Dovolo. She has been given a set of Common Wealth High Guard uniforms. While Tammers had chosen to wear the more recent blue and black uniform, Anjel had opted for the older red Corhiesin leather jacket. Never mess with the classics. She however would not give up her leather pants. She had spent over 50,000 thrones on authentic Earth bovine leather pants, and even though Tammers had a heart attack when he found out, he couldn't get her to take them back. Yep they were the best pants ever!

She lay in the cockpit, lazily watching as outside, Tamerlane and Harper were transporting some widgets, weebles, and Georges onto the Maru. They had already been reprogrammed to call the Maru home, but Anjel bet it would take some time for them to get used to the place, and Beka to get used to them. She smiled at the thought of beka. The woman didn't exactly hate her, it was just beka didn't trust her. Anjel thought that was funny in and of itself, but add the secrets and the future paths that this woman was bound to take, and it became down right hilarious.

Dylan hadn't actually given them titles or jobs yet, so they were at his disposal whenever he wanted, great. It wasn't that Anjel didn't like Dylan, on the contrary she loved him, but even nietzscheans have to sleep.

Anjel watched as Harper dove on a widget that decided that the Dovolo had been a much better place than the Maru, which was true; the Maru was a big pile of bolts. Harper. Harper was brilliant, but not even he could comprehend what everyone was about to go through in the near future. He would teach her everything she knew about mechanics and how things worked, and she would teach him how to relax more often. I would be a good trade, if he could survive the next few months.

Rommie wasn't exactly a person, but she still would be affected. Just like she had come to care for Alex, she would soon come to care for another child. Imagine having the strongest warship in the galaxies as a god mother figure, it would be sweet.

Now Trance was the hard one. Anjel had to deal with the futures that she knew, the ones that she thought were possible. Trance knew every possibility in detail, how was she not crazy by now? Maybe she was crazy. No, Trance was the best thing that could happen to all of them. The more attacked she got to them, the more she could bend the future to save them. Trance knew all of Anjelicia's secrets, more than Tamerlane, and strangely, Anjel was fine with it.

Tammers walked into the cockpit. They hadn't really spoken for about 3 days. Tammers had been sleeping in the quarters that Andromeda had assigned to them, and they really didn't see each other much. Anjel crooked her head over the arm rest to look at him. He was tall dark, and the uniform seemed to bring out his strong shoulders. He smiled at her sheepishly. He didn't know weather to be ashamed or just plain regretful.

He walked around the pilots chair and sat on his knees in front of her. He leaned forward and without a word buried his face in her stomach, "I'm sorry."

It took her a moment to realize that he was crying. She ran her hands though his hair and gently massaged his neck, "hey, baby, its ok. It's alright."

He pulled her off of the chair and into his lap, "I just don't know what to do. We don't know whats going to happen, and I thought that. I Don't know, I just hate being childless."

Anjel ran her fingers through his hair while he snuggled into the nook in her neck. "I know baby, I know. Soon ok, but not for a few months, we need to get some things handled first. We can't be hauling a child around the galaxies, especially with our life style."

He looked at her confused, "but aren't you home?"

Anjel smiles, "yeah, but I don't know how long the welcome will be."

He smiled too, "Yeah I know the feeling."

Anjel looked up at him with another grin, but this one wasn't so sweet and understanding, "Ya know, I do have an inhibitor in."

***********************************************************

Dylan had been trying to find Anjel for the last 20 minutes. The andromeda knew that she was on the ship, but not where, which was strange. The Dovolo had put up its inferred scan blockers as well as its window shields. All that andromeda could tell was that there were 3 life forms on board. But it would take at least another 10 minutes to walk there.

"Andromeda where's Beka?"

"In her quarters packing, Captain." she replied automatically.

Ok, so Beka wasn't there yet, but he could drop by on his way to the hangers.

"Mr. Harper, where are you."

"Between a rock and a hard place... hahaha, funny right?" Dylan heard Harpers voice through the corridor.

"Where are you?" Dylan said more firmly.

"Geesh boss. Lighten up. I'm on the Maru, whatcha need?"

"Do you know where our new crew members are?" Dylan said as he rounded the corner to Beka's quarters.

"Yeah, they're on the Dovolo."

"Could you tell them to meet me on the Maru in 10 minutes." he said as he rang Beka's door.

***********************************************************

Genius Harper, reduced to messenger boy. Well there were worse things, like magog food. He hopped out of his hole and down the ramp of the Maru. He had just geared her up with new thrusters and an auto defense weapons system. She was good to go.

He crossed the way to the Dovolo and after punching in a password he had taken from Tamerlane, walked up the loading ramp.

"Hello? Anyone Home?" He called, but got no response.

He checked in the crew quarters but only found Tibalt duking it out with a weeble who had gotten past the barriers. Ok no one there. He walked through the med wing and again, found no one. Ok, well he hadn't seen them come out, and the only way in or out of this big beauty was through the loading ramp, so they had to be in the cockpit.

He walked up the hallway towards the command. As he got closer he could hear small sounds; something being knocked over, inaudible human sounds, ect. What were they doing in there?

He stepped close to the door and it automatically opened,

"What the fuck!" Tamerlane swore as the door opened

"DON'T LOOK, DON'T LOOK, CLOSE THE DOOR DAMNIT!" Anjel yelled before Harper could get a full grip on what was going on.

Though his view was obscured by the pilot's chair, Harper could distinctly see the both Anjel lying naked on the ground with Tamerlane on top of her with his face buried in her chest to hide his embarrassment.

Anjel looked over at Harper with a distinct why are you interrupting look mixed in with sheer embarrassment. "Um, Hi" she said.

Harper couldn't speak , hell he count breath, "Um...da um...Dylan...um Dylan... you ...maru...10 minutes....um...bye."

And he bolted.
