Honored Memories

A/N: Not much to say…

" I'm picking up a signal matching the frequency Harper gave me." Harper grinned, looking up from the panel he was working on.
" My baby's coming home to me!" He half-shouted.
" Calm down Mr. Harper. It might not be." Dylan answered, only minimally paying attention.
" Oh, come on boss." Harper whined, not moving from his station.
" Harper, we are to get the Perseid to tell us how to reverse the effects so we can save Tyr from becoming a vegetable. If in the process we manage to re-obtain your Bell X-1, we'll just see when that happens."
" Alright." He mumbled, suddenly not as interested in finding the Perseid.
" Beka?" Dylan questioned, half turning to the blonde.
" Hang on." She answered, warning them they were about to enter slipstream. A second later the portal opened and they were in the strands.
~~~~~
Trance watched over Tyr, jerking slightly as they entered slipstream. She took a deep breath before heading over to the cabinets and pulling out a small needle. The needle slipped under Trance's gold skin as she fought down the sick feeling. A rustling behind her made her snap her attention to the Nietzschean. His arm pressed against her throat as she was pinned to the counter behind her.
" Shh." Was all he said, placing one finger to his lips before he knocked her unconscious. Trance fell to the ground watching Tyr slip out of the room before everything turned to black.
~~~~~
" Dylan." Rommie's voice called after they had jerked out of slipstream.
" Yes Rommie?"
" The Ambassador's ship is within communications range. I didn't expect them to be this close to the slip portal." Beka said, reading the information that was spewing over her screen.
" All the better, they don't have time to get away. Open a channel."
" Dylan-" Rommie tried again, but did as she was told.
" Ah, Captain Hunt what a pleasant surprise." Ambassador Valence's smiling, gray face showed up on the screen.
" I wish I could say the same Ambassador. I was wondering if we might be able to request your presence on our ship?" Dylan thought through his words carefully, not wanting to tip his hat.
" Whatever for?" Dylan could see that Valence's smile was starting to become strained.
" Mr. Harper has been having problems with the blueprints you gave him. The copy of the machine doesn't work nearly as well and we can't seem to stop using it long enough for anyone else too. You understand our dilemma, don't you?" He visibly relaxed on the other side of the screen.
" Of course. I'll be over in just a moment." At those words, the screen clicked off, being replaced by the symbol of the commonwealth.
" Well that was interesting. Think a lot of people have tracked him down once they knew that that stupid thing did?" Dylan asked his crew not turning his back.
" Dylan." Dylan sighed before turning to the android. Before he could speak, Rommie did. " Trance is unconscious in the med. lab and Tyr is currently hiding. You might want to get him tied up before the Ambassador returns. Otherwise we just might have a dead Perseid on our hands before we can reverse the Mempulse's effects."
Harper's voice was heard behind Dylan, saying what everyone on the bridge was thinking. " Oh crap."

A/N: Well no one reviewed so… I think I might cry… not really. Here's an update, not much but it's an idea I can go with and that's what counts right? So, anyone else wonder why Tyr suddenly woke up when he's supposed to be drugged?
