A/N: Well looks like a lot of people like this story. Will try to make it easier to read the last chapter was a little rushed sorry.
All so tell me if you like the details I put in as I try to write what I see in my head I am a very visual person I love pictures that tell stories. My character will be speaking in thoughts only, just to let you know. Those thoughts will be in italics.
Chapter 3
Starbuck was looking at the man as he opened his eyes. Her hand was still on the crystal that was covering him. The crystal began to crack under her hands. Then out of the crystal three spheres of liquid floated out of the tube and shot straight at the others. Starbuck saw the glowing blobs form but than one formed around her right hand the one touching the black metal tube, it felt warm and peaceful. That is when she heard a voice in her head, O my head hurts, what the hell happened? O damn the crystal is blue not good. The glowing sphere of crystal wrapped around everyone's right hand as well. Starbuck looked down at her hand and saw a blue metal band that had white crystal pieces that flashed in time with her heart beat. She looked back at the others and could see the same metal band on their wrists.
The crystal under her hand finished cracking than part of the black metal tube that the blue crystal was sitting opened up and out stepped the man. It was then she heard the same voice from before. Damn the crystal is blue, so much for a nice quiet universe. Well it looks like the conduits are up and working. Hello to whom am I projecting? Behind the man a console started to blink slowly.
"Ok, did everyone just hear that or am I going crazy?" asked Apollo as he looked around the room to try to find any speaker grills like in the command center. "Sir, you are not going crazy. I just heard someone talk in my head, too." agreed Helo. Then Starbuck said pointing at the man standing in front of her, "It's him, he trying to talk to us I think." As the Guardian was projecting the first time he was looking at the band on his wrist, so what he saw was the crystal shards glow in time with the words that he heard so Gaius said, "It has to be the bands on our wrists."
"Hello, I am Captain Lee Adama and this is Lt. Thrace, Lt. Agathon and also Dr. Gaius Baltar," Stated Apollo.
Well you sound human, sounds like you are speaking an old language that I have not heard in thousands of years. Hello, my name is Guardian. The Doctor is right. The bands on your wrists are what make it possible for you to hear me. The console behind the Guardian started to blink faster. Then the Guardian lifted his right arm up, on it was a gauntlet the same color as their bands but much bigger and all so went up his arm to his elbow. Starbuck was looking at the Guardian with a smile on her face, she still felt peaceful and happy. She had just seen the blinking console when the Guardian looked up at everyone and stated, I think it would be a good idea if we left in a hurry. The ship is going to explode soon. Please tell me you came in some very fast ships. We have to get very far away at least a quarter light second, or for the people not in the know that is 46,500 miles. The others looked at each other with a great deal of shock.
"What the Frack do you have on this ship that can destroy a whole planet?" Yelled Starbuck as she came out of her almost drunk state. She was pulling on the band on her wrist but could not get it off.
The Guardian looked at them and thought projected to them. You do know you are on a warship, right. The energy reserve on this ship is massive; there are the warheads to the missiles, and the fuel to the generators. I think it is best if we leave now. Tell me where your ships are, it is time to leave? The console behind the Guardian started to blink faster. He looked down at his gauntlet again another crystal shard was blinking on his arm so he projected again. Ok, the ship has told me that there is a group of eight ships in an airlock on the other side of the ship. I have a picture I can show you. The Guardian held out his right hand with his palm up a blue ray of light formed a picture above his hand with the four vipers and the two raptors and a few guards walking around the ships in a tight pattern.
"Yes, those are our ships," said Apollo. "We had best leave now if the ship is going to explode. It took a long time to get to this room," said Dr. Baltar. "You are right for once. It took at least 45 minutes to get here. Frack, crossing this room took almost 8 minutes," said Starbuck.
No problem we just have to teleport there. The Guardian touched another shard on his arm gauntlet. Everyone saw a bright white flash and then were standing next to the front raptor. Several pilots had their guns out and pointed before they could speak. Lee was happy that they had followed standing orders to have a guard detail set up.
"Well, that was fast, no running or things falling on us or exploding around us always a plus." Smiled Starbuck.
Then the floor shook and a rumble boomed in the distance. "You just had to say something like that didn't you? You just had to jinx us, that is just wrong." Said Apollo. "Ok people everyone to your ships; we have to get out of here fast. As soon as we get past the door, hit your afterburners. We need to get far away from this ship as fast as possible." Ordered Apollo. Everyone ran to their ships. Apollo turned to the Guardian and said, "You will have to ride with Lt. Agathon in his raptor. Most of these ships are single seat fighters." As Helo and the Guardian ran over to the raptor the engine started up the pilot had stayed near the raptor so it was the first ship ready to lift off.
Understood Captain Adama. It would be best to get away from the ship just a little bit than if you have faster than light drive us it to get away from the ship as fast as possible, projected the Guardian. The ship started to shake more and the lights flashed and went out completely.
All of the ships launched and made a run for the door. The door was open but Apollo was looking at his scanners and saw that there was still an atmosphere in the room. How is that possible the door is open to space their should be a vacuum around us not a breathable atmosphere, thought Apollo.
The raptors and vipers began to pull away from the giant black sphere. The Guardian looked back with his own senses and watched as his friend and home exploded. Rest in peace old friend. Thought the Guardian as he teared up. Than he felt the shock wave move out and get to close to the ships that had found him. He opened a hyperspace window and took control of all the ships and flew them into the window and then pointed the hyperspace jump to their home base and jumped to the small fleet that he could feel on the edge of his senses.
