Part 6
Susan went into the war room, where already a multitude of aliens had gathered. Delenn was also already there and looked somewhat nervously. Susan went to her and tried to quiet her.
"Delenn, don't worry. Alike what you intend, it will work. Marcus is firmly convinced of it."
Delenn saw at her questioning.
"I can't explain it, but I have spoken with Marcus. He has given me a small overview about what you plan. I will support you on each conceivable way. John is my friend. He has done already so much for me; there is this only a trifle. And John will love his new task."
"Thanks Susan. I have needed these words now."
As the most races were present, Delenn began to speak.
"I have had you all gathered here today, because we are going to write a piece of history. This here will become a joyful event; we all will remember a life long. We all have much endured in the last couple of months. In the beginning from everything stood the war against the shadows, in which we all had allied, even the people, which lead for many years wars reciprocally. This should show us, that we are together stronger than each individual race in the universe. Our solidarity has helped by the victory against the shadows. As we had won this heavy battle, we have helped all together the humans, to free their planet from a brutal rule. As the past shows together we are undefeatable. Therefore I conclude that we found a new alliance. Each, who joins this alliance, receives the help of the other races. We will transmit also the more developed technologies to the races, which are not yet so progressive. At the top of this alliance a president will stand. I will appoint the first president personally; however he knows nothing from this new task. The main office of the alliance will be Babylon 5 for the next months, until a suitable building has build on Minbar. We will send ambassadors to all planets, so that we will be always achievable s for you. Which I'm asked you all is to speak with your government to convince them of this alliance. If your governments have still questions, they should turn themselves please to me or to Commander Ivanova."
Murmurs interrupted the quiet, which had ruled during Delenn's speech. Suddenly Londo got up and stepped beside Delenn.
"My dear friends. I'm convinced of this idea. Although it isn't yet official, I act now immediately in my role as new emperor of Centauri Prime. Herewith I join the alliance."
Delenn was pleased. With this reaction she hadn't calculated. On Londo's speech about fifteen further aliens got up and marked at the new alliance. Delenn was close to tears. Also Susan was touched. As the collection had dissolved, Susan went to Delenn.
"Delenn, you must immediately go to Earth. John still knows nothing about his new task and he will be more than ready to assume it. They will let you visit him; he has a right to visitors."
"Thanks Susan, without your support I hardly would have done it. Please you will have an eye on Marcus as long as I'm away. I leave Lennier with you. He should support you with your work. You need still quiet to recover fully of the last days."
Delenn went to the space - airport to fly with a White-Star-Ship to Earth.
Susan concluded, that her shift was settled for today and went again to MedLab. Stephen was just with Marcus.
"Stephen, has something changed?" she asked hopefully.
"No, he's still in coma and his vital signs are still too low. As long as it doesn't worsen, I'm satisfied. How are you, Susan?"
"Fine, thank you. I believe I will go to bed afterwards. No more work today!"
"Fine, finally you hear on me. Can I ask you something?"
"Sure, Stephen what's troubling you?" Susan could already imagine, what he wanted to know.
"When you were leaving the last time you have visit Marcus you said that I should file in a petition for divorce. But you know that I'm not married."
Susan laughed. "Perhaps you aren't married by law, but you know Marcus. He doesn't forget something like this."
"Why Marcus? He's in coma, how can he bother me with such a thing?"
"I can't explain it to you, but I can speak with him. You know what kind of a pain-in-the-ass he can be. He has asked me, to give you a kiss on the cheek and tell you, you should file in a petition for divorce. More I also don't know."
Stephen dawned it slowly. "Oh these bastard. Not even in coma he can leave us alone. Sheridan has sent us together to Mars to get in contact with the resistance. Our cover was that we were newlyweds. Since then he raises me with it. Especially because I was more interested in Number One than in him. But why wants he the separation now? Does he have a new one?"
What do you think so far? Please R&R.
