Chapter 12

Cylon Basestar

Leoban Conoy, Dianna Biers, Shelley Godfrey, Aaron Doral, Sharon Valleri, Simon Jones, Brother Cavil were all gathered around the Cylon Hybrid listening to the mindless ramblings when all of a sudden she stopped and said Kara Thrace has returned from the dead. Leoban was the first one to react his love for Kara Thrace was legendary amongst the Cylon clones.

Leoban- "Now is the time to act, we need to get Kara Thrace away from the humans, especially from Lee Adama."

Cavil- "Ok Leoban how do you propose we do that?"

Dianna- "We could send out a transmission to the Galactica offering the humans a truce in exchange for access to all the knowledge Kara has on the 13th colony. If they don't accept our terms then we will have to take Kara ourselves.

Leoban- "I can't see the humans accepting a truce so I think we should start formulating a plan to extract Kara from them."

Shelley- "Ok are we in agreement, we offer the humans a truce and when they don't accept it we take Kara Thrace."

Boomer- "Ok seeing as my double is already on the Galactica I can sneak aboard and kill Athena and take her place, I will lure Kara to a raptor and from there we will jump to a pre-existing set of coordinates where a basestar will be waiting. When Athena downloads lock her away so there is no hope of her escaping back to the humans.

Doral- "The plan sounds ok but what about Karl Agathon he will knows his wife and Hera you know the trouble we had with her on the basestar, both of them will know you are not the real Athena."

Boomer- "I see what you are saying, if Helo gets in my way I will kill him, I would have killed Hera too if it wasn't for Caprica 6. Anyway I wont be on the Galactica long enough to attract attention."

Simon- "It is imperative that you don't get caught Sharon, this is the most mission you will perform."

Boomer- "I know I will not fail."

Cavil- "We have faith in you sister, we know you will not fail."

Galactica

Dee was standing at her communication station when she herd Starbuck telling Lee that she was sad about having to give up flying but she understood why she had to. Lee told her that he didn't have to worry quite so much anymore seeing as she is now grounded for life. Dee was very angry at this piece of new information and now she would have to form a new plan to get rid of Starbuck, Dee figured that her cylon programming would take over.

Lee and Kara headed away from the CIC towards the war room. It was now time to review their current position. Kara still had no idea what she was supposed to look at but at least the knowledge was there, Lee on the other hand was thinking about Kara's security and how he was going to keep her safe. Realistically he knew he couldn't be with her 24 hrs a day but he was going to try.

They entered the war room where Gaeta was waiting for them; Lee could see that Gaeta was excited about the job at hand. Kara thought I wander how excited he will be 15hrs into looking at star charts.

Gaeta- "Sir's I have taken the liberty of placing all the chart on the table in chronological order, to the left is where we have been and to the right is the new star systems. I have placed the fleet at this position, the Crition Nebula, I am not sure where our next jump should be, the next galaxy is the Jedi and that is as far as our star charts take us, so as you can see I am slightly apprehensive about plotting jumps beyond that galaxy."

Starbuck- "Lieutenant I understand your trepidation about plotting jumps especially if we could be jumping into a sun or on top of a planet so that is why we will send out raptors to scout the area. What I need form you is the precise number jumps needed to get through each galaxy and the amount of fuel that will be used up in the process."

Apollo- "Ok Kara shall we get started."

Starbuck- "Get me a cup of coffee and I am all yours."

Apollo- "Your mine anyway Starbuck."

Starbuck- "Yeah, yeah, yeah, alright so you got me, what are you going to do with me Major?"

Apollo- "I am sure I can think of something, but at the moment we have work to do Captain, like finding us a new home."

Starbuck- "Yes Major a new home it is then. Apollo I hope you have something good planned because your quarters was pretty spectacular."

Apollo- "Well Captain lets just say you will be in for the ride of your life, literally."

Starbuck- "Well Major does this involve me being naked and on the floor or up against a wall."

Apollo- "It could do, you will have to wait and see."

Starbuck- "You're a hard man Apollo."

Gaeta- "Here you go Starbuck, these are the by my estimations the amount of jumps we will need to clear the Jedi Galaxy is 10 and the amount of Tyllium needed will be within safe limits so the fleet will not be in trouble."

Starbuck- "Good thanks. Lieutenant Can you please bring over the charts that have our current position on them."

Apollo- "Kara I am going to head back to my office and grab the flight rosters and maintenance rosters, I will be back in a couple of microns."

Starbuck- "No problem Lee, I will be here."

Back in Joes Bar Sam Anders was having a game of Pyramid with Seelix when a noise stared ringing in his right ear, he could see the Chief was experiencing the same thing as he was rubbing his right ear. Sam knew that the Coniel Tigh and Tory would also be experiencing it. He thought it must be their cylon side he had no idea why this was happening but he figured the closer they got to earth the more this sort of thing might happen.

The next thing Sam felt was a rush of power flow through him like he has never felt before, he felt so alive and he suddenly understood what was happening to him he knew what he had to do what his purpose was.
