A/N Ok I know it has been a long time. Umm....nothing more to say. OH YEAH! I changed my pen name!!
Chapter 4
Harper had the life support system back online in three hours. He was working on engines when Vexpeg came in.
"Hey, you need some help?" He asked.
Harper looked at him. "Um..yeah can you hand me that?" he asked pointing to a tool.
"That I know I can do." Vexpeg answered, handing it to him. "Listen Harper, this planet...what's wrong with it? Doesn't it have some kind of government?"
"Nope. We live in a depressed and slightly mellowed Anarchy." Harper responded, not looking up.
"What about those aliens that killed all those people?" Fred asked.
"They come from a different planet."
"No, no I mean...what's going to happen to them?"
"They will probably go back home, fix the flaws they found in their weapons, then come back and start it all over again."
"And no one stops them?"
"How can we? They have the latest tactics, weapons, we have nothing. A sitting death trap with no way out."
That was when Beka's voice pierced the air over the comm.
"Fred!"
"Beka!" Fred yelled back.
"Get your ass up here now!"
"Yes your Captainship Ma'am!"
On the Maru's bridge, Fred came running in.
"What?!"
"Where the hell is Bobby? He left three hours ago to 'run some errands'!" Beka shouted.
"I don't know Beka! Haven't seen him!" Fred was the only one who challenged Beka is a shouting match.
"Really?!" Beka shouted back. Harper walked in, wondering who was going to die.
"Yeah really!" Fred shouted right back.
"Hey hey you two! You sound like you are fighting about who has the best two airplane!"
"Toy what?"
"Never mind. I am just saying, go yell at Bobby, he is coming in now!" Harper said.
Beka ran past him. "Bobby! Where in the name of fucking polka dotted blue vedrans have you been!" She asked.
"I need to show you something." He flashed a flexi at her and she froze.
"we need to talk." She said and pulled him into her room.
