Laura Roslin awoke sweating and gasping for air, shock jerking her into a sitting position the instant she opened her eyes. She stayed like that for a full sixty seconds, waiting until she could calm her breathing- she was the president and, to some, the Prophet. She had to be composed.

Laura Roslin had just seen the face of humanity's greatest enemy, and it was, to say the least, a bit of a surprise.

She glanced at her clock. It was 0623, Fleet Standard Time. Knowing Billy, he had probably been up for an hour now, Lords bless the boy. She needed to talk to someone about this, and Billy was both the least likely to laugh and the best candidate to help her figure out if she had finally gone stir-crazy.

Billy Keikeya was more than a little shocked when Laura Roslin walked into his makeshift office on Colonial One in her pajamas. She then proceeded to shock him even further.

"I've had another vision Billy. I saw the face of humanity's greatest enemy, the greatest threat to the human race, and it wasn't the face of a Cylon."

"Sir?"

"It was Ellen Tigh."
