Aww crap I forgot disclaimers.

I do not own CSI Miami and I am making no profit from this story.

Chapter 2

Horatio woke up four hours later in a soft bed. It adjusted as he looked around and sat up. His vision was slightly blurry and his jaw was a little sore. Kendra was alerted by a monitor he was awake and went into the recovery room.

"How are you feeling?" Kendra asked the new man.

"Everything's a little blurry," Horatio said.

"That will wear off in a few minutes. I fixed up your eyes a little, there was some sun damage in them. My specialist fixed your teeth." Kendra said as she watched him run his tongue over the perfect white porcelain.

"You fixed just about everything didn't you?" Horatio chuckled.

"Yeah pretty much," Kendra admitted. Horatio's vision was clear now.

"Can I look in the mirror?" H asked.

"Yes sir, right this way," Kendra said and helped him to his feet. He was in a long robe that wasn't open in the back like he was used to. She led him out of the room and to a door by the examination room. Horatio's jaw dropped as he looked at his new body in a full length mirror. He had no wrinkles, his stomach was flat and there were no scars anywhere.

"Did I take twenty years off?" Kendra asked as he admired his body.

"Yes Kendra, thank you so much," Horatio gushed.

"Glad you like. Your immune system is hundreds of times stronger, I went in and replaced a few things and, oh my you probably won't want details," Kendra sighed. Horatio laughed a beautiful perfect laugh and surprised himself. "You'll get used to that Horatio. Let's get you into some clothes and call Libby to come get us." Kendra said and gave him a very fashionable metallic suit. "We all wear these, they keep us up to date on things, you can communicate with friends, it tells us if we are injured or are in a harmful environment, oh I need to take a look at Libby," Kendra remembered.

In a few minutes Libby parked the shuttle and walked into the hospital. She smiled at Horatio in his new suit and his beautiful figure.

"Don't you look handsome," Libby said and kissed his cheek.

"Like I wasn't before?" Horatio teased.

"You always were," Libby smiled.

"I'm sorry Horatio but I have to steal Libby for a few," Kendra said and put rubber gloves on.

"Why?" Libby asked.

"You went back 1000 years into that horrible place. You fell a hundred feet from your aircraft, I need to look at you," Kendra said and pulled her into another room.

"I feel fine," Libby argued.

"Your monitor said otherwise," Kendra snapped. "Are you hurting?"

"No Kendra, my suit didn't let me get hurt, just bruised." Libby said.

"Let me look," Kendra sighed. Libby removed the top half of her suit and Kendra examined her bruised back. "You look okay," Kendra said. "If you have any pain Libby please tell me." She sighed and Libby put her shirt back on.

"Will do," Libby sighed. They walked out and rejoined Horatio.

"Take him home Libby and make sure he sleeps some." Kendra said.

"Okay. I'll take him out tomorrow and show him the planet. He needs to learn how to drive the hover car," Libby said and the three went out to the shuttle. She dropped Kendra off at her house and then flew to her own. Libby's house was more of an organic type and had trees growing around and actually built through the middle of it. Horatio had never seen a tree like it. The leaves were very tiny and shown with a silver gleam. They hung down in strands like a weeping willow and blew in the slight wind.

"Beautiful," Horatio said and followed her inside.

"Thank you," Libby said. "We'll get you some clothes tomorrow. Oh and our days are longer then nights. You'll get used to less sleep, there are only six hours of darkness and we have thirty hours in a day. We'll meet Darius sometime this week and work on getting you a house." Libby explained.

"He will just accept someone from the past?" Horatio asked.

"Yes he will. We bring people from the past to our time several times a century." Libby said.

"One more question, what do you do for a living?" Horatio asked.

"I train different animals. I do not get paid, no one is paid anywhere. We all can live in luxury and not work, but some of us pursue our dreams. We haven't used money in centuries. Everything is all one country under the rule of one man and his partner." Libby explained. That blew Horatio's mind.

"Everyone lives in peace then?"

"Pretty much. Like I said before, the Reptilians pretty much keep to themselves unless we go into their airspace." Libby said after seeing him trying to stifle a yawn. "You need to go to bed, I'll show you to the extra room," Libby said. They climbed a staircase that floated in midair and spiraled around the trunk of a massive tree. Horatio ran his hand over the smooth bark and followed her into a vast room with a giant bed.

"This just keeps getting better and better," Horatio yawned.

"My partner will be home soon. I'm going to give you one of his robes to sleep in." Libby said.

"Why do you call your boyfriends and girlfriends 'partners?'" Horatio asked.

"We don't get married. We commit to each other but aren't bound by church laws." Libby said and left for a moment. She came back with a robe that looked like pure silk. The world outside was darkening very quickly. "I'll see you in the morning Horatio, sleep tight," Libby said and hugged him before going to her bedroom.

Horatio looked at the streets outside and watched floating lights move up and down the street in a neat line. This new world fascinated him and he went to lay down in the bed and it jumped up to catch him.

"Jesus," Horatio muttered and settled down into the mattress.

I just want to say I kind of wrote this on a whim today and don't know when I will be updating or if I will even finish it. I have so many ideas with unfinished plots. :P
