Harper moves to Rhone's side. He here's a sound and he turns toward Rhone. He sees her reach toward him, but not quite making it. She starts to fall. He catches her and lifts her to Dylan's bed. Everyone is amazed he moved so fast to catch her.

Harper: Rhone! Can you hear me?

Rommie: According to my scans she's just unconcious.

Harper: Trance can you do anything from here?

Trance: No. Rommie's scans are the only information we have.

Harper: What if I got you a different scanner?

Trance: That would work.

Harper: I'll be right back.

Terran: Wait. If you go the Nietzschean's will pick on you all the way.

Harper: So. If you go they'll wonder about the prisoners.

Terran: Very well. But if they ask say one of the prisoners needed to be revived.

Harper nods and walks out. He keeps his head down and doesn't meet any Nietzscheans on the way to med deck. On his way back he meets Torum.

Torum: What are you doing away from lady Rhone?

Harper doesn't look up to answer.

Harper: One of the prisoners needs to be revived.

Torum looks at him and walks off mumbling something about slaves. Harper hurrys the rest of the way. When he arrives Trance is waiting for him. She scans Rhone and she finds a poison in her system.

Trance: Rhone has a neurotoxin in her system. Harper, she'll be fine.

Trance talks to Rommie out of earshot of Harper while he sit's beside Rhone.

Trance: Rommie, Rhone needs the antitoxin, but the only way to get one is if we can get to med deck. And we're on a time limit. I estimate twenty-four hours before the neurotoxin spreads. We need to get the antitoxin into her system before it spreads.

Rommie: Can she be woken up.

Trance: Only for a few minutes at the most. Why? Do you have an idea?

Rommie: If we can wake her up then we can say one of the prisoners fought back and wounded her. Harper can carry her to med deck, but she needs to be some what concious. We all go to med deck because Terran didn't trust us enough to be left in a room by ourselves.

Trance: Okay. We'll try that, but what about the prisoner that fought back.

Rommie and Trance look at Beka.

Beka: What?

Trance: Beka, we need you to be the prisoner that fought back. Terran will have a gun pointed at your back forcing you to walk to med deck.

Beka: Okay. Why?

Trance: We need to get Rhone to med deck.

Beka: But you said she'd be fine.

Trance: If we can get her to med deck.

Beka: Okay. I'll do it.

Trance: Terran I belive you heard every word we just said.

Terran: I did and I will help.

Trance: Harper, can you carry Rhone to med deck?

Harper: Yes.

Trance: I'm going to wake her up and you have to carry her to med deck. Okay?

Harper: Yes.

Harper picks up Rhone. Trance wakes up Rhone. Rhone looks up at Harper.

Rhone: Why are you carrying me?

Harper: We have to get you to med deck. Do you remember what happened?

Rhone: I... killed a Nietzschean... to save your life... you acted like my slave... I punched Rhade... I fainted.

Harper: No you passed out. I caught you and you still have to act like I'm your slave. Act like your disgusted by being carried by a kludge.

Rhone: You're not a kludge.

Harper looks at her.

Rhone: Okay.

When the little party moves into the corridor Torum and another Nietzschean block their path.

Torum: Where are you...

He sees Rhone.

Torum: What happened to lady Rhone?

Rhone: Let my slave through. Now.

Terran: We are moving to med deck. That prisoner (she points at Beka) fought back and wounded Rhone.

Torum: We will handle the unruly prisoner.

Terran: No. I will.

Torum: As you wish lady Terran.

Rhone: Slave watch where your touching.

Rhone felt him shiver when she said slave. She was sorry she had to call him that. Torum moved out of their way. When they reach med deck.

Harper: Almost there Rhone.

Rhone: I'm sorry Harper, for calling you slave.

Harper: It's okay.

Rhone smiles at him and passes out.

Harper: Rhone!

Harper lays her on one of the beds.

Harper: Hurry Trance!

Trance takes a blood sample from Rhone. As she isolates the neurotoxin she gasps.

Trance: I was wrong we only had two and a half hours. Now we only have two and it will take another hour and a half to finish isolating the neurotoxin and make the antitoxin.

Harper: That will still give us half an hour.

Trance: I don't know how long it will take for the antitoxin to kick-in.

Harper: Hurry.

While Trance is isolating the neurotoxin,Terran, Beka, and Rommie are discussing who could have done this. Harper is talking to Rhone.

Harper: Rhone you have to make it through this. You have to. If you don't then I won't have any reason to stay on this ship. Beka can stay, but I'll leave. Rhone I love you. You have to make it. Rhone if you don't make it than I'll have to find you and kick your ass.

Terran, Beka and Rommie haven't come to any conclusionas toanyone who could have done it.

Terran: The Nietzscheans couldn't have done it because she has this thing about touching people. She only shakes hands with people she trusts. I'm surprised she even let Harper carry her here.

Beka: She trusts Harper, a lot.

Rommie: What about the Nietzschean she killed? She had to have touched him to kill him.

Terran: Why did she kill him?

Beka: She said something about saving his life.

Terran: Who's?

Rommie: Harper's.

Terran looks at Harper talking to Rhone. She thinks Rhone made a good choice in saving his life. He would have returned the favour in an instant.

Rommie: What about Harper?

Terran: No.

Beka: No way. Harper cares about her to much.

Rommie: I meant, what if Harper had some toxin on him and she touched him.

Terran is thinking about the past when the answer comes to her.
