Thx a lot for the reviews. As you wished ;) a longer chapter this time! Not that much longer, but at least a bit lol!

"Gaius, wake up!" A well known voice pulled him out of his dreams and Baltar realized he had fallen asleep with his head on the desk, in front of his computer. He could feel Six knead his shoulders and sighed in pleasure. This really sweetened dry desk work. "Well, well…it's always a pleasure to wake up like that, my beauty," he said and stroked Six' hand.

"My beauty? What the frak are you talking about, Baltar? Hello, it's me, Alex, not your beauty! See, he's doing it again," he heard someone say and startled. In front of his desk he could see President Roslin, Captain Adama and the two girls he had tested.

"Dr. Baltar, we're sorry to wake you up but you told us that you would have the results by now," Roslin said and ignored the fact that he had been talking to himself again and Alex teasing words.

"Results? Aah yeah, right, the results," he mumbled a little bit confused and looked at the screen of his computer. Indeed, the test had finished half an hour ago and the results were very satisfying. "I can clearly say these girls are no Cylons," he stated and smiled at both of them.

Alex just rolled her eyes and snapped: "I already told you that!"

"And the other thing I asked you to test, Dr. Baltar," the President asked and came a few steps further into his direction. "There's a possibility of 0,0 that they are biological siblings. Maybe the family adopted Lillith," he answered and shrugged. He had absolutely no idea why this was so important for Roslin. Still, the President wasn't satisfied enough. "No, there has to be more to that. I want you to look for children missing in the past… let me say, past 4 years. Look out for kids that would match to Lillith but please, act discreet. Especially the girls shouldn't know about that," she ordered.

He nodded and his gaze slid over to Six who sat on a chair in a corner of his lab. "Well Gaius, looks like work isn't over yet," she said and got up. She walked past the others and looked them up and down, then stopped next to Gaius. "Believe me, I'll make it a pleasure for you," she whispered into his ear and a wide grin spread across Baltar's face.

"Look at him, he's mad," Alex told Lee and shook his head. Lee raised one eyebrow and had to admit that Baltar was acting strange again but on the other hand, he'd never acted differently. "Sometimes fame messes up with your head," he gave back and smirked.

"Well, thank you very much for your work Doctor. We'll leave you alone now," Roslin told Baltar and left the lab, followed by the others. Outside the lab Alex asked: "Can you please take us back to the Rising Star now?"

"No, I want to stay here, Ally. They have beds here," Lillith told her sister excitedly but Alex shook her head. "This is a Battlestar, Lilly, we don't belong here. We have to go back!"

"Well, what about we have dinner here on the Galactica and take you back tomorrow? You can have one of our free guest quarters," Lee proposed, having Kara back in his mind. He wanted her to meet Alex, to get over a chapter of her past that haunted her till today. He wasn't even actually sure if Kara really hated Alex.

The girl sighed. "Alright, but I wanna go back tomorrow morning! Now, let's have dinner, I'm starving!" Lillith jumped in excitement and grabbed Lee's hand. The young man as pretty surprised that the little girl liked him because usually he hadn't a good hand with children, they somehow were always afraid of him.

"That's so great. I've never eaten on a Battlestar, what do you people eat here? We eat the same things over and over again on the Rising Star. Ally says it's because the cook isn't too good and he can't cook many different meals. But I don't believe that because he baked a cake for my birthday! Bad cooks can't bake I guess and the cake was really yummy. One man said it was because the fleet has rationed the food but I don't really know what this means. All in one I like your ship better than ours because we have no beds or quarters, just a big hall where we all use to sleep," Lilly babbled happily and she recently stopped when they entered the mess.

Kara immediately saw them enter. "Damnit," she mumbled and hit her fist on the table. "What," asked Helo and looked over his shoulder to see the entrance. "Is this Alex?" Kara nodded. She had given him the same short version of her past she had given Lee and he had been as surprised as her flyboy. But unfortunately the Adama men never took a no as a no and it pissed her off that Lee had taken the girls to the mess with him.

"Please, Kara – just ignore them. I bet this girl doesn't even know that your dad has frakked around with her mother and it wasn't her fault. If you wanna blame someone, blame her mother, not Alexia," Helo tried to appease his friend but it seemed to even increase her fury.

"Helo, are you that frakking dumb? Her name is Alexia THRACE so I bet she knows that Caleb MOORE wasn't her real father. But you're right, it wasn't her fault her mother was a bitch but sometimes this runs in the family," she snapped and stood up from her chair. She walked over to Lee, ignored that he was talking to Laura Roslin and dragged him out of the mess.

"What do you think you're doing Lee? Taking this girl into the mess won't help me, alright. I asked you to keep her away from me because I really don't WANNA SEE HER," Kara yelled and pushed Lee against a wall. He took a deep breath and expected Kara's fist to meet his face but luckily she didn't hit him. Her grip around his shoulders loosened a bit and she stepped away from him. "I'm sorry," she admitted. "It's just…I was nearly happy to lose the rest of my family to the assaults on the colonies because this saved me from a lot of trouble to come in case my father would somehow appear again or my mother would find me. Now she comes up and causes trouble so I'm not in the mood to befriend with her!"

Lee shook his head and sighed. "The only one who causes trouble right now, is you! Alexia is a nice girl even if her slightly cold attitude is really familiar to me. Someone called Starbuck once was like that when I first met her," he stated and smiled a bit to lighten the mood but unfortunately Kara wasn't really willing to see things less complicated and negative.

"So, is she a frakking Cylon or not," she asked, still grumpy and crossed her arms in front of her chest when someone behind her answered her question. "No, I'm not a frakking Cylon. Captain, the President has a meeting with the Commander now, are we allowed to get something to eat without you?" Kara turned around and saw Alexia standing behind her, the girl's eyes ranged between hurt and anger. Starbuck suddenly felt guilty. In fact, Lee was right, the girl truly had nothing to do with the mistakes her parents did and she had obviously suffered enough in her relatively short life.

Caprica 8 years ago

Kara sat on the porch when her father dragged his suitcases out of the house. Well, she was 19, she had nothing to fear. Even now her father left and she was left behind with no one to protect her from her abusive mother, she still could protect herself. Only 3 more moths to go and she would attend Military School, far, far away from 'home'. "By Dad," she just said and watched him pack the things into his car. He opened the door of the car, hesitated and went back to her. "You know, Kara, I would have taken you with me but this would have been too hard for your mother. Just be strong Baby, I'll miss you!" Dreilide kissed his daughters forehead and went away. "You know where you can find me," he shouted out of the window of his car when he drove away and waved Kara goodbye. The young woman sat there for a while and stared at the street. She was so angry about her father's behaviour! Sure, her mother wasn't easy to handle and her parents had had a lot of difficulties lately but still she couldn't understand why he had cheated on her.

Kara sighed and looked around when her gaze met a bottle of milk that stood on the porch. The photo of a little girl was printed on the bottle with the important information that a girl named Alexia Thrace was missing on Libra. Anger arose in her so she grabbed the bottle and threw it against the wall of her house. The glass smashed into a million of pieces that sparkled in the sunlight like diamonds. She hated her father, she hated her half sister and she hated her mother. In this moment, she swore two things to herself : First of all she never wanted to really fall in love with someone because in the past years the love to other humans had caused nothing but pain and disappointment to her. Secondly she swore that she would never talk to her father again and she knew that at least this promise she would keep !

I hope you liked it a bit, reviews would be awesome ! Have a nice day
