Episode Forty-Four
"Beneath You"
Tatiana 2.0 floats through the ruins of Barcelona towards the area of the city that still stands. Following behind her as always are the Eight, although now The Ancient Ones realize that perhaps a squirrel wasn't the best choice because Eight of Nine is making a lot of chattering racket.
The plan to obtain new vessels for the Four will have to wait a little longer. They are not entirely sure it will be necessary even. The Ancient Ones aren't quite sure what will occur when they reach full power, but there is only one more Nine to go, so they plan to find out soon.
Which is why they new hover towards the more possibly populated areas of Barcelona, to find One More.
"Taylor," Neah kneels before Taylor and urges him to look at her. "We need to keep moving."
Taylor seems somewhat confused. "I still feel him."
"All the more reason to leave," Neah adds, shuddering at the events that occurred mere moments ago.
"No," Taylor says, standing quickly. "I feel Pizoku." Taylor turns and makes his way back into the compound.
Reese walks after his friend. "Where?" He asks, following Taylor through the rooms with the three girls close behind.
"I thought he was dead," Ashlee says, highly concerned.
"Here." Taylor stops in the middle of a room.
"Large empty room, yes, this must be the place," Ashlee lets out with sarcasm. Taylor looks at her, then stomps hard on the ground. It splinters and the wood falls into the pit. "Trap door, right," Ashlee acknowledges.
"They could return," Jilan points out as Taylor jumps down in.
"Well, you and Ashlee stay up here and kick anyone's ass who comes close," Neah tells the Bajoran as she helps lower Reese into the pit. "You're good at that."
Ashlee and Jilan exchange nervous glances as suddenly they are left alone in the terrorist compound as their friends chase ghosts in the darkness below.
To Be Continued...
Trivia and Spoilers: the fate of Mallard is revealed to be as Eight of Nine the Squirrel.
-The Ancient Ones have almost reached full power.
-Taylor can still feel Pizoku. What does that mean for him?
-I am not sure if it was said before now, but Jilan is a Bajoran. It is definitely official, linking this story to Star Trek.
