Aftermath
"Helmer!" Jonus greeted the Militian Representative. "How are you?"
"Why I'm doing great? How are you? Have you decided on our peace treaty yet?"
"Well... no. I'd like to rejoin the Federation."
Helmer looked a bit surprised. "Really?"
"Yes. The group of people you sent were quite... persuasive. And they proved themselves to be quite helpful... in more ways than you could imagine!"
"That's great news! We'll meet at Fifth Jerusalem in a couple days for your inauguration."
"Thank you Helmer. I assume you'd like to talk with your friend here?"
"Yes, please. Hello Gaignan! I see the negotiations went better than expected!"
"For a small price, yes."
"A small price? I don't understand..."
"Oh, you will when we get back. You most certainly will understand."
"Speaking of which, when should I be expecting you back? A few days?"
"No, we'll be jumping through the nearest U.M.N. column thank you very much."
"Really? Is there a problem? Did something happen on the way there?"
Gaignan looked back at the group. Sitting in a large couch that was requested by Jonus, was Momo, Jr., Ziggy, and chaos, who still weren't able to move. In another chair nearby, Shion was sitting, allowing Kos-Mos to inject more nanomachines into her wound. Turning back to the screen, Gaignan laughed nervously. "Well... you could say that. Lots of things happened on the way... expect to hear about it when we get back..."
"Ok then. I'll see you when you return!" Helmer's face disappeared.
"Shion." Kos-Mos stopped working "I have run out of nanomachines. What do you want me to do?"
Shion poked her wound again. "Ahh... it still hurts a little... I'll go get some more nanomachinces from the medical ward. Stay here with the others please, Kos-Mos."
"Affirmative." Kos-Mos went over and took a look at Momo.
"Allow me to go with you sister." Jin said, walking up to her.
"No... you have to get some medical items too. A splint for Jr. and something to wrap up chaos' wound. It still hasn't stopped bleeding yet." she looked at the ones on the couch.
"But sister!" Jin still showed worry for her wound.
"It's ok Jin." Gaignan interrupted. "I'll accompany her to the med lab. You just get the supplies." Jin looked at the two, and nodded.
"Don't take too long though..." Jr. mentioned, glancing at Gaignan. "We've got to get back to the Elsa so we can get back to the Federation."

Shion and Gaignan walked down the empty hall in the med lab, her arm around him for walking support.
"You sure you can walk? I can carry you if you wish."
Shion giggled. "Oh Gaignan, you're sweet."
"As are you..." they stopped and looked at each other.
Shion blushed, and looked away. "You know... it's too bad we have to leave for the Foundation so soon. I was hoping we could have some fun here on Ataria."
"I think I can arrange for that..." he swept Shion off her feet and headed for an empty med room.
"Gaignan! What are you doing?"
Gaignan smiled. "You said you wanted to have some fun..."
Shion punched him playfully. "Yes, but what about the others? They'll worry about us!"
"I can tell Jr. to wait up..." he mentally sent out a message to his brother.
Shion smiled. "But what about my back?" she winced in pain as he lay her down on the bed.
She laughed as Gaignan made a funny face, trying to think. "Hmm..." he said. "I think I can find a way around that..." and he closed the door.
