Summary: They had lost Commander O'Neill, not once, but twice. And this sickness that had taken other members of the Eden Advance team now threatened to take Banes and Danziger.
A/N: This was written for a prompt I received on my roleplay account for Devon.
Devon's hand covered her mouth as the sobs silently wracked her body. She couldn't hold her emotions back any longer as the weight of their crash landing finally hit her. They had lost Commander O'Neill, not once, but twice. And this sickness that had taken other members of the Eden Advance team now threatened to take Banes and Danziger.
She had promised to put True to bed that night, and she'd done that, but only after the girl had snuck off and said her own goodnights (maybe even goodbyes) to her father. She had barely escaped the tent before her tears started to flow.
She lifted her head, watching as the two moons were high in the sky and the stars twinkled and burned in the distant space. She whispered, "Please don't let this be the end." She just couldn't lose the faith that Julia would find a cure and that they'd both pull through.
In that short time, she had come to respect and admire John Danziger, and she couldn't imagine the rest of their journey without him.
