The first thing that Tony realized was that he was lying on something hard. As his eyes blinked he groaned. The sunlight was streaming into his face.

He heard laughing before he heard talking.

"Thank the stars." The voice got quieter but continued talking. " Hes awake guys! Hes awake."

As his eyes focused so did the dark shapes that were above him. The dark shapes slowly gave way to heads and then to faces.

Abbie and Joseph were looking at his face.

Abbie was smiling. "Tony. Can you see us? Can you talk? How do you feel?" She gave about 2 seconds between each question giving him time to nod his head.

"Water." He croaked out. Man, he was in pain. Must have been pushed back by Raul. His eyes went wide and he tried to sit up. Joseph pushed him down.

"Don't move. You'll get dizzy and pass out again. Just relax. I'll get you some water."

"Ra..."

"Well...dont worry about that now." Abbie smiled and brushed some hair out of his face. "Shh...just relax."

Joseph was back with water. "Here." He put his hands under Tony's head to prop him up and slowly gave him some water. "Feel a bit better? It will take some time to get better."

Tony nodded. "Thanks." He took a deep breath and pulled himself to a sitting position. Joseph went behind him so he could lean on him.

Tony gave a rough laugh. "Never thought I'd be in this position." He took the time to look around. "Where is everybody else?"

Abbie gave a strangled sound. "you killed Raul. We were able to get Rebeka down. But she has a lot of wounds and was bleeding for a extremely long time. Her pulse is weak. very weak. But we dont know how to get off this god-forsaken planet. And unless we do..." She went silent.

"The castle. We need to get to the castle or where we first teleported here." Joseph spoke next. "But we need help with man power. Are you feeling well enough to walk and hold someone."

"Yeah." Tony slowly stood up. He faltered as the world began to spin. He pushed off Joseph's helping hand as he closed his eyes. There is no time for weakness now. He had to be strong. For Sophie. For Beth. For Rebeka. For Kenneth.

He opened his eyes. "I'm ready. Who do I need to hold?"

"Rebeka. She's the easiest to handle. Seems after losing some blood you tend to get a little lighter." Abbie tried to make a joke, showing off her normal personality. But nothing worked. She was upset and depressed and it seemed like half of them were going to lose their lives. And the best people to show how to get off this planet to and to one with a hospital were evil and that meant that they would have to come again and fight. And she was tired of fighting and all the anger and evilness. She just wanted to go back to the moon and walk her dog...and maybe convince Joseph to go out for drinks or...She shook her head. She had to stay focused on the things at hand or there would be a death.

Tony had nodded and was moving to where they had put Rebeka. Once Raul was dead the forcefield around the ring had gone and Joseph had wasted no time in getting Rebeka down and away. He had been able to get some dressings around most of her wounds, leaving him without a shirt and shorts instead of pants. Abbie had to appreciate the muscles that streamed his chest and back.

Joseph held his hand to help her up. She took it gratefully. Once she was up though he didnt break loose.

She looked at him confused.

"Listen, Abbie, once this is all over let me take you somewhere nice. You deserve it after the fight you just pulled." He gave her a small smile.

She could tell that he was extremely impressed with her. She was pretty impressed with herself.

"Yeah. Thanks. That would be really nice." She gave him a smile in return.

He let go and went to pick up Kenneth, while she wiped her hands on her pants.

Once Tony had Rebeka and Joseph had Kenneth they moved to where Beth and the others were.

"How is she?" Jared asked first because he had noticed them coming before the rest of the group.

"She could be a lot better. But she could be worse." Joseph answered.

"Tony! Are you ok?" Sophie got up and walked to her boyfriend.

"Yeah. Im good. But we gotta move. These two and Beth need medical attention." Tony smiled softly and looked at Jared. "Can you carry her?"

Beth was still moaning but it seemed that most of the rest of her couldnt move.

Jared nodded. "Im sorry if this hurts love." He whispered in her ear as he picked her up. Once she was situated he turned to Tony and Joseph. "I've got her. Lets move."


Sophie sighed when the first sight of the castle hit them. The walk had been slow because of Tony.

Soon, however they could make sight of a figure coming toward them, extremely fast. They stopped and waited and before long could make out that it was Julian, running.

There was no way to get into a hiding place, and they could all tell he knew where they were and coming towards them, they braced themselves to be ready for a fight.

"Come! Come quick. I cannot leave the portal open for long. Im sure Beth is in a great of a need of it as Sydney is." He then noticed his sister. "Rebeka? He moved closer towards Tony who was still holding her. "You look pretty bad, Tony, let me take her for you."

Tony backed away a bit, narrowing his eyes. The others were confused by this turn of events. What had happened to Julian?

"Tony, let him take her. Their is nothing to worry about." Joseph spoke up. When he noticed Tony doing nothing he spoke again, "Tony, it is too long and difficult for me to explain right now but just give Julian his sister. Nothing bad will happen.

Slowly, Tony released his hold on Rebeka as Julian came up and took her from him.

"Hurry. We dont have a lot of time!" Julian took off toward the castle.

"He means it, everyone go your fastest! If that means you can run, then run!" Jared spoke and rushed off. The others followed just behind him. They made it to the castle in no time. Inside the great hall was a portal opened and everything. Sydney lay on a couch near it.

Tony, not feeling any of the pain he felt before, rushed and grabbed Sydney and without a second thought jumped through it. Everyone followed with Julian and Rebeka being the last.

Sophie drew a sigh of relief as the tall buildings of the moon stood around them.

Julian had the best teleporting skills she had ever seen.

On the tall sign in front of the equally tall building read, "St. Mercy's hospital". The best hospital on the moon, and one of the best in the whole galaxy.

Abbie smiled. They had killed Raul, saved the world, and those who were wounded would live. They had to. She knew it in her deepest of hearts.
