STRANDED
CHAPTER FOUR:
SO NOW WE'RE STRANDED.
Trance shot the engineer a disapproving look, before trying to get to her feet.
"Whoa, whoa, Trance, you're not in any shape to be getting up, just sit there for a sec, I'm gonna see how everyone else is,"
She rolled her eyes, but returned to her previous position as Seamus clambered up into command.
To her absolute shock, she found herself staring at his butt on his way past, she was so tempted to reach out and pinch it…
She shook her head violently to get rid of the thoughts, but it only resulted in a throbbing headache and severe nausea.
She clutched her stomach as what was in it flew up her throat and out before her.
The bile burnt her throat and the retching made her head feel worse.
During the Andromeda's descent, her hair had escaped from its colorful pile on the top of her head, and now, as she violently threw up, a hand gathered it up and held it away from her face as she expelled her stomach contents.
"You okay Trance?" Seamus asked as she leant back on the bulkhead, clearly relieved that the nausea was fading.
"Yeah," she replied weakly, allowing Seamus to tuck a stray strand of pink and purple hair behind her pointed ear. "How are the others?"
Seamus smiled.
"There fine, few bumps and bruises. We got the worst of it because of where we were. If you'd stayed on command…"
She lowered her head, as more tears escaped.
"I was scared Seamus, I though we were going to die…"
With tender and gentle movements, Seamus lifted her chin, so he could peer into her chocolate colored eyes.
"I did to, babe. Listen, you have a concussion. Do you think you could come with me to the med deck, so Rev can check us out?"
Trance nodded slowly and allowed Seamus to pull her to her feet.
Together they climbed onto command to be greeted by Beka, (who hugged Trance in relief) Dylan and Tyr.
"You two go down to medical, were having Rommie and Rev meet you there," Dylan said.
Seamus put a supportive arm around Trance's waist and together; they walked out of command.
Barely a quarter of the way there, a wave of dizziness washed over the purple girl, and the world spun and tilted around her.
Trance stopped short as her stomach and head disagreed to the amount of walking she was doing, and doubled over; she was once again, throwing up.
As she retched, tears of pain trickled down her face, and Seamus held her, whispering softly in her ear.
"Its gonna be alright Trance, I'll protect you," he promised. She knew he'd keep it.
Once she had finished, she straightened up, and looked into Seamus's face. He was very concerned for her health.
"Seamus…" she began weakly, but didn't get to finish the sentence as she collapsed, semi-conscious in Harper's arms.
"Whoa there my purple princess, I gotcha, relax," he cooed, lifting her fully, into a cradle carry.
They made it to medical, without much more incidence, and Seamus put her down on the bio bed.
He hovered over her, not allowing to be treated himself, until he knew that his friend was going to be okay. Once he too was treated, they were set to rest, as Dylan's voice came over the comm.
"Rommie, Rev. Join me, Beka and Tyr in the airlock, we're going to see where we are,"
Rev peered worriedly at his patients, but Seamus waved him off.
"We'll be fine, if anything happens, we'll call,"
Satisfied, Rev and Rommie exited med deck and made their way to rendezvous with the captain.
As the company stepped out of the airlock, they were blinded by sunlight, reflecting of dunes and dunes of golden sand, as far as the eye could see.
"Great," Beka muttered. "Not only did we have to get stranded on a planet, we had to get stranded on a desert planet. God I hate weather."
Tyr snorted.
"Ironic isn't it? Not to long ago, we were stranded on an ice planet."
Beka nodded. It was not like she would forget anytime soon. The ship was just recovering from a magog attack, her engineer, and her adopted little brother had been infested with magog larvae.
Of course they were able to extract the eggs, but Seamus was traumatized by the whole ordeal, it was hard to forget the look on his face when he found out all his biggest fears had come true.
"Beka, are you still with us?" Rommie asked, waving a hand in front of her face.
The blonde captain snapped back into reality and looked around, placing a hand over her eyes to shield herself from the sun's rays.
"So what are we going to do?" she asked, turning toward Dylan, who just shrugged.
"So now we're stranded,"
Meanwhile, back on the ship, Trance was tossing and moaning fitfully in her sleep.
Harper sighed, and swung out of bed, to be by her side.
As he stood over her, one hand held hers, his thumb gently stroking her knuckles and the other, pushing the hair out of her face.
Such a beautiful face.
She opened her eyes and smiled slightly. It was nice to wake up and see him.
"There you are, I was beginning to think you'd gone on holiday," Seamus said, with a grin.
"That would be nice," she wheezed. It hurt to breathe. Her lungs were constricting.
"Relax Trance," he ordered.
She coughed, and specks of blue blood peppered the front of Seamus's white shirt.
Seamus went pale. "Shit, when the fuck did that happen?" he asked himself, as he set about looking for a scanner.
He ran it up and down her body, as she lay there, staring at the ceiling.
She was bleeding internally. How could they have missed that?
Seamus contacted Rev.
"She's bleeding internally Rev, I need you back here," he relayed, while holding Trance's hand.
"Don't leave me Seamus," she pleaded softly.
"Its okay, I'm not going anywhere, its okay," Seamus said, squeezing her hand tighter.
He tried to bite back the tears that were forming in his eyes, but they came nonetheless, as Trance slipped back into unconsciousness.
Dammit. He thought, but he just stroked her cheek gently, and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead, before stepping away to allow Rev to do his work.
Well that was chapter four, I hope you guys are enjoying it. You know what to do, the little button on the left hand side, you need to press it. Pleeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaazeeeeee! Flames will be used to fry the magog. Thanks for playing! (it was a bit soppy, but, meh)
CHEERZ!
