CHAPTER-29

Just as Caprica had decided to go after Leobon on her own she noticed that he had changed course. He was now headed back toward Delphi making Caprica wonder what he was up to now. She made sure to stay far enough away that he wouldn't notice her, she was following him by his trace marker anyway. When he started descending she finally realised he was going to land close to the Temple, but why.

Caprica decided to land a little farther away until she knew what was happening. As she left her raider and started making her way to the Temple she asked herself again, why. Then it came to her, Starbuck must have somehow convinced Leobon to take her to the Temple. Caprica knew that Starbuck was counting on someone to figure out she would go there if she could.

Caprica decided to to get close enough to help Starbuck if she needed to, but not so close that she could pull back if someone else showed up. She suddenly remembered Willow, she hoped Willow wasn't in there, but somehow she knew that is exactly where she would be. This situation took on a whole new meaning now, especially if Leobon saw Willow.

An idea suddenly came to Caprica, she didn't know very much about the maintenance of a raider, but after watching the eights at the air field the other night she could disable Leobon's raider. It wasn't much, but it would keep them grounded, after one more glance at the Temple she went to the raider and disabled it.

On her way back to the Temple she suddenly found herself surrounded by people who were pointing guns at her, so she did the only thing she could, she stood still and slowly raised her hands above her head and spoke " My name is Caprica, I came to help Starbuck "

Caprica could feel some of the tension drop and heard someone walking up to her from behind, then she heard Boomer " Put your guns down she is with us "

All of a sudden it seemed like everyone had moved in close around her and she saw Athena, Boomer, Helo and she guessed the resistance.

Boomer reached for Caprica's hand she knew she was probably spooked " Why are you here Caprica?"

Caprica had her own questions, but now was not the time " I followed Leobon and somehow Starbuck must have convinced him to stop by the Temple and they are inside the Temple right now "

Athena spoke up " We need a plan "

Helo didn't agree " No we don't, there are a whole lot of us and just two of them, so I say let's just go in and get Kara out right now " the resistance of course agreed with him.

Boomer held up her hand to stop the chattering " We can't show our hand Helo, we have to make sure that Caprica is not compromised with the cylons otherwise she can't help us down the road "

Athena butted in before Boomer could finish and pulled Caprica and Boomer away from the others " We have been worried about the cylons gaining information if we download, so what happens when Caprica downloads?"

Caprica found Athena and Boomer both looking at her, she sighed she was going to have to tell them " When I was working with Gaius on the computer network programming I made a chip, I guess you could say a filter of sorts that allows me to control what memories get downloaded"

Athena snorted " Well wasn't that convenient, do the other sixes know?"

Caprica shook her head " No, I wish I could do the same for Willow because what she knows is more important to protect "

Boomer decided to get back on topic " Okay that solves that problem " she slowly moved them back to the others " As I was saying Helo, Caprica's identity has to be protected, but Willow is in there along with Starbuck, so yes we need a plan, anybody got any ideas?"

Helo cursed " Starbuck is the one that comes up with the crazy ass plans, but I do know whatever we plan she will adapt to it very quickly "

Caprica spoke up " I disabled Leobon's raider and I can buy us some time and access the situation by going in and confronting Leobon, plus he already thinks I want to kill Starbuck, so he won't be expecting anything else "

Athena felt she needed to make a point " We do have one thing in our favor or should I say two things the raiders are both here, now we just have to make sure Leobon and the other eight doesn't die and download before we get away "

Boomer picked it up from there " After Caprica goes in we will be able to move closer because Leobon loves to hear himself talk, after they start arguing we will move inside, Caprica you make sure you protect Willow and Anders I want you and two of your men to keep up with the eight while Helo, Athena and myself focus on Leobon and Starbuck "

Anders nodded, he was more than glad for them to take the lead on this, he figured the cylons would know more about fighting each other, plus he didn't want to plan it in case it went wrong and Starbuck or Willow died then he would probably be next.

Caprica needed to make them aware of something " After all of this is over and hopefully things go our way we need to figure out what to do about Willow, I don't think she wants to go back to the base star plus it would be a huge risk to Starbuck if she did "

Boomer sighed " I know and that is why I am going to leave that decision up to Starbuck, I'm sure she can figure something out "

Athena chuckled making everyone turn to look at her " I'm sorry I was just imagining Starbuck returning to the fleet with an undead Helo, three cylons and the Caprican Buccaneers, her own personal army "

They all laughed at that image and Helo added " Can you imagine the face Commander Adama will make or how Colonel Tigh will react?"

Boomer smiled " Colonel Tigh would air lock everyone of us starting with Starbuck "

Helo spoke up after the laughter died down " Any questions before we run over the plan one more time?"

[BREAK]***************************************************************************************************************

Kara stayed tensed the whole time until they finally landed near the Temple. She made sure to move slowly still trying to buy some one time. Kara had to wait until the eight left the raider before she could and then Leobon followed behind her.

Eight opened the door and checked inside before letting Kara in. As she walked in she slowly glanced around looking for Willow. As she started toward the prayer rug Leobon grabbed her arm " Where are you going Kara?"

Kara gave him a blank look " I need to kneel on the prayer rug since this will be my last time to do so, I want to do it right "

Leobon let go " You have five minutes Kara "

Eight stayed by the door not understanding Kara's religion, but she also didn't want to intrude on it. She saw that even Leobon moved off to the right to give her space.

Kara kneeled and bowed her head while holding her tied hands to her chest before she began praying silently so the cylons could not hear her.

Even though Kara used the Temple as an excuse to try and get away she also intended on praying, so she shut out the fact that they were watching her and this time she prayed to Aurora.

After she finished her prayers she tried to look around for Willow, knowing that if she was here she would be hiding. Kara finally stood up and turned to face the eight and out of the corner of her eye she saw Willow behind a pew at the back wall of the Temple to her left.

[BREAK]*************************************************************************************************************

Kara was trying to come up with a plan when Caprica slammed the door of the Temple open heading straight for Leobon yelling at him " What in the frak are you doing Leobon, your orders were to find the rouge eight not Starbuck "

Leobon never moved " I don't give a frak what Cavil ordered my only concern was finding Kara " he said in a raised voice

Caprica didn't see Willow so she moved toward Starbuck before Leobon could. As she reached her she grabbed Starbuck and held her against her facing Leobon and used her as a shield " I am taking Starbuck back to the base star before Cavil decides to box both of us "

Leobon took three steps toward them " No you're not, I will kill you before I let you do that "

Caprica took two steps back knowing that the others would be coming in any second " If you take another step I will kill her Leobon , after all Cavil said dead or alive, it's your choice "

Leobon turned away for a moment thinking of a way to get to Kara away from Caprica .

As he was turned Caprica whispered to Starbuck " We have help coming in at any moment have you seen Willow?"

Kara turned away from the eight " Behind the pew " she wispered

As soon as Leobon turned around Athena, Boomer and Helo had guns pointed at him and were closing in, as three other people had his eight already under control. As soon as they had tied Leobons hands he looked around and saw that Caprica still had Kara in a choke hold.

Boomer then turned to Caprica " You might as well let Starbuck go Caprica we have you surrounded "

Caprica suddenly put her gun against Starbuck's temple " She is my ticket out of here or else I will kill her right now "

Leobon screamed " No Caprica, she can't die she is the only one who knows how to find Earth "

[BREAK]**************************************************************************************************************

Helo walked over to Boomer " I am taking Leobon outside we have some unfinished business "

Boomer knew that wasn't part of the plan, but Helo seemed determined " Fine just remember not to kill him "

Helo turned to Athena " You watch the eight I need Sam and one of his men to come with me "

Athena nodded and went to the eight who still had one resistance member with her.

Boomer waited until Helo left " Athena you two take eight outside away from Helo, I will deal with Caprica "

As soon as the Temple was clear Caprica let go of Starbuck who stumbled and was rubbing her throat while giving Caprica a frak you look.

Caprica shrugged " Sorry I had to make sure Leobon bought it "

Kara finally looked at where Willow was hiding " You can come out now Willow " then she looked at Boomer " So what's the plan?"

Boomer and Caprica filled Starbuck in on their plan.

[BREAK]***************************************************************************************************************

Helo, Sam and Ten Point took Leobon behind the Temple where they stopped when Helo said " This is good enough "

As Sam and Ten Point held onto him Helo stood almost nose to nose with him " You crossed the wrong line when you broke Kara's hand so I am going to return the favor " Helo looked at Sam " Hold his hand flat against the stone wall "

Leobon knew then what Helo planned on doing so he started struggling, but in the end they had his hand held in place.

Helo raised his rifle up and sneered at Leobon right before he used the butt of his gun to break Leobon's hand and pulled back before he smashed it two more times.

Sam wasn't sure what the cylon had done to Kara, but he wasn't prepared for what Helo had done.

Helo waited for Leobon to catch his breath before saying " Now the other one "

Sam and Ten Point both thought he had finished " Are you sure you want to do that?" Sam asked

Helo looked at Sam with a blank face " Yes I am sure, because nothing I do to him will ever be enough compared to what he did to Kara, now do as I asked "

Sam and Ten Point looked at each other before doing as Helo asked leaving Sam wondering what all Leobon had done to Kara.

Leobon's face paled, but he looked right at Helo " When I resurrect I will come after your eight and your baby and kill them while you watch then I will kill you "

Helo smiled " You just made this worse than what I was planning on doing "

After Helo finished smashing his other hand until it broke in several places he turned to Sam " Tie his hands back together as tight as you can."

As they were tying his hands Leobon looked at Helo " Tell Kara I will find her again and she will be mine even if I have to beat it into her "

Helo sneered " If you ever touch her again it won't be me you have to worry about " Helo paused " It will be Apollo and he will hunt you to the end of the galaxy, then you will know true pain "

When they finished Helo stood him up and began using his face as a punching bag and didn't stop until Sam grabbed his arm " That's enough Helo, we are not supposed to kill him" he whispered so Leobon couldn't here.

Helo stopped and Leobon fell to the ground.

[BREAK]**************************************************************************************************************

After Boomer and Caprica finished filling Kara in on everything she asked Boomer to bring Athena in so they could finish planning. Boomer went out to get Athena and after they made sure the eight was secure they left him with Ander's man before heading back in.

Kara filled Athena in " We will be leaving soon in the two heavy raiders, Caprica will explain how she sabotaged Leobon's raider " Kara paused for a minute " Caprica has already uploaded the fleets position in her raider so you will have to input it into Leobons "

They were all sitting on the prayer rug planning their escape when Willow reached over and touched Kara's broken hand " How are you going to fix your hand Kara?"

Kara was still in pain, but she didn't have time to think about it " When I get back to the fleet Doc Cottle will have to re-break it then set all the bones, I will manage until then "

Caprica looked around the circle of women " Starbuck what are we going to do about Willow, she doesn't want to be with the cylons anymore and it would be dangerous for the fleet and you if she ever dies and downloads, she knows too much? "

Kara sighed " I know, I just don't know how I can explain all of this to the commander with me already bringing back Helo, Athena and Boomer, not to mention the Caprican Buccaneers "

Boomer had a thought " I think Apollo will be able to vouch for me and Athena, but even if we could get Willow on board where would we put her?"

Kara smiled " That much I have figured out " they all looked at her waiting " I think the best place to put her is on the Aurora "

Boomer had been watching Caprica " That will leave you all by yourself with the cylons Caprica, is there any of your sisters you could trust?"

Caprica had been thinking the same thing " I think Natalie can be trusted, but I will make sure before I say anything, what about the eight outside?"

Athena looked up " I tried to hint around about things and I told her to keep a close eye on Cavil because he might be setting himself up as the cylon god and that there may not even be one since none of us have seen him "

Kara stood up " I am going to have a little chat with her while you all figure out how to finish things up here before we leave "

Caprica started listing things " We can't kill Leobon or the eight so we just leave them here for Cavil to find and one of you are going to have to kill me and I can tell Cavil where they are when I resurrect "

Boomer shook her head " It will look bad if one of us kill you "

Caprica laughed " I have the filter remember "

Athena spoke up " Is there any chance that Cavil won't know a six is missing?"

Caprica shrugged " He probably won't, but the other sixes might notice, if they do I will come up with something and Boomer I think it might be best if I only communicated with you "

Boomer agreed " Now we just have to hope Starbuck can get us onto the Galactica "

[BREAK]**************************************************************************************************************

As Kara was walking outside she had no idea how to convince this eight, but if she could then that would be one more cylon on their side. Kara had been thinking a lot about how to start a religious war between the cylons even though she knew it was wrong to use religion like that. Except the more she thought about it she knew that she was only trying to discredit the false cylon god and for right now that was the only thing she could come up with.

When she reached the eight and her guard she dismissed him and sat down beside the eight. " You should really think about what Athena told you eight "

The eight looked at her " Why?"

Kara thought a minute before answering " I know what it is like to believe in something without proof, but about a week ago I was given proof that my gods do exist " Kara paused before continuing " Have you ever seen proof of the cylon god or has Cavil been the one telling all of you about this god?"

Eight thought about it " Cavil has always been the one to tell us, but that doesn't mean there isn't one "

Kara sighed " Has any of the other cylons seen any kind of proof, anything at all?"

Eight looked away " No "

Kara stood up " Then keep your eyes and ears open and trust yourself " Kara started to walk away " Boomer and Athena believe there is no cylon god, but it took them awhile and they have also rejected the cylon way, because they now believe killing billions of people is not something any god would have wanted "

When Starbuck walked away she thought about the things Athena and Starbuck told her. What was most interesting was the fact that two of her sisters believed there was not a cylon god. One thing eight had decided on was to keep her distance from Leobon after everything that had happened.

[BREAK]***************************************************************************************************************

As Kara walked away she motioned the man back to stay with the eight. Kara was about six feet away from the Temple when she heard something and went to check it out.

As she turned the corner at the back of the temple she saw Helo, Sam and Ten Point standing over Leobon who was curled up into a ball " Helo what the frak is going on?"

Helo looked her straight in the eyes " Something that needed to be done, payback "

Kara looked from Helo back to Leobon taking in all of his injuries " You better pray he isn't dead, stay here we will be leaving soon and no more beating on that piece of shit "

Helo snorted " I was just doing what I knew Apollo would want me to "

Kara smirked " Actually he would have done much more to him, thank you Helo "

They all three watched her walk away. Sam looked at Helo " Was that true what you told Leobon about Apollo?"

Helo figured since they were waiting he would answer " I met Apollo for a brief moment aboard the Galactica before the cylons struck, but it was long enough to know Starbuck had him rattled. They had a fight on the flight deck after they did the fly over during the ceremony, Starbuck threw the first punch and Apollo punched her right back. Then Kara told me they were together when I found her here " Helo paused " The Adamas are possessive when it comes to her "

Sam nodded " Who are the Adamas?"

Helo thought Sam knew " Commander Adama is head of the military and treats Starbuck like his daughter and Apollo is his son Captain Lee Adama who is the CAG and Starbucks wing man and boss "

[BREAK]***************************************************************************************************************

Kara walked back into the Temple " We need to tie the eight up and kill Caprica and get the frak away from this planet "

Caprica knew she didn't mean it to sound harsh, she was just stating the facts " What about Leobon?"

Kara laughed quietly " He is not dead, but he won't be walking anytime soon, so lets wrap this up. " Kara paused then added " Boomer I want Willow flying with us and Athena with Helo in the other raider and the rest of the resistance can divide themselves between the two raiders "

Athena asked " Who is going to kill Caprica?"

Kara saw they were all looking at her " Fine, I'll do it after the rest of you get outside "

Kara waited while they all told her bye and Willow hugged her " Thank you for believing and helping me sister "

Kara had her pistol out " Thanks for your help and just so you know I will not enjoy doing this "

Caprica nodded " It's okay, just promise me you will look out for Willow "

Kara nodded and fired shooting Caprica between her eyes, then watched as she fell onto the prayer rug. Kara hated doing it in the Temple, but she didn't need anyone watching her.

Kara quickly said a prayer then walked outside " Okay people let's get out of here now "

Helo grabbed her arm " Who fired a gun?"

Kara looked away from him " I had to take care of Caprica "

They all took off to get into the raiders and lifted off in the dead of night popping up near the fleet where it was daytime.

[BREAK]**************************************************************************************************************

Lee and Mark had been in Lee's office for about an hour talking and drinking. " Let's take a walk and I'll show you where we sleep and eat then we can go to the observation room and wait for the jump "

Mark got up " Sounds good to me I need to walk around after sitting for a while "

Lee took him by the mess hall first and there was only a few people there, next they went to the rec room " This is were we unwind and drink and play cards "

Next Lee showed him the bunk room " My gods Lee this looks pretty cramped, how do you ever get any sleep?"

Lee shrugged " We are pilots, you get used to it and learn to sleep through most anything "

They finally ended up at the observation deck " CAP should be landing any minute then we will jump to Kobol "

Lee sat down first while Mark stood looking outside the window " You think Kara will be back today "

Lee smiled " Yeah I do "

Mark sat down just as the countdown began.

They both got up and looked at the planet Kobol after the jump.

Lee sighed " I will take you back to Racetrack I need to go to the CIC "

[BREAK]***************************************************************************************************************

After an hour of standing in the CIC alarms started blaring and Adama started shouting out orders.

Gaeta spoke without looking away from the monitors " It looks like two heavy raiders "

Lee looked at his dad " Do you think it is Kara?"

Before Adama could answer they heard " Galactica this is Starbuck, for fraks sake don't shoot "

Adama looked at his son who was smiling from ear to ear, knowing he probably looked the same.

The commander spoke up " You have a go for landing Starbuck "

Starbuck hated what she had to do " I'm sorry sir, I can't do that without certain assurances "

Adama didn't know how to respond to that and looking at Lee he could see he didn't either. " Starbuck I am not in the mood to play games "

Starbuck sat up straight and spoke slowly " Neither am I Commander, let me speak to Captain Adama on a secure channel, please sir "

Adama settled down he knew Kara was being cautious about something or somebody " Go ahead Captain "

Lee grabbed the head set and put it on " Kara are you okay?"

Kara looked at her hand " Mostly, listen Lee the person you sent to help me is piloting this raider and I have another eight with me that has switched to our side and is also pregnant with Helo's baby and I have Helo "

Lee knew his mouth was hanging open " Is there anything else Kara?"

Kara sighed " I have most of the Caprican buccaneers also, but Lee I have a six model that is very important to me, I need her because I found out some things about myself you are not going to believe, so just trust me "

Lee sighed if only she knew " What do you need me to do Kara?"

Kara grinned " Tell the commander what I told you in private I need these cylons protected and the less people that see them the better it will be especially for Willow my six, we will hold this pattern until you get back to me, and Lee I missed you so hurry up "

Lee chuckled as he took the head set off " Commander I need to speak to you in private "

In the situation room Lee told his dad everything Kara had said and waited as his dad took it all in.

After another minute passed Lee broke the silence " We need everyone to leave the hangar deck especially the chief, I told you Boomer might come back, but Kara is more concerned about the six model I think she has something to do with Aurora and Kara doesn't want her seen by anyone "

Adama looked at Lee " You know we can't clear everyone out "

Lee had a thought " What if we have Corporal Venner and Mathis with us I think Kara would agree to that "

Adama got up " I hope so because she is not leaving us much choice "

Lee stood also " Dad you know Kara would not ask this without a damn good reason "

Adama nodded " I know which is why I am going to allow it "

Lee picked the head set up " Kara, the deck will be clear in ten minutes except for the commander, Mathis, Venner and myself, that is all the leeway he is giving you "

Kara chuckled " I'll take it and you had better be the first person I see "

[BREAK]**************************************************************************************************************

The pilots and deck crew had no idea what was happening they had never been asked to clear the hangar bay before. Even though the chief was in the dark like everyone else he started moving people out of the bay. " Hurry it up, the commanders wants everyone out and the bay sealed "

Racetrack was off shift, but when the alarms went off she rushed to the hangar bay, she stopped once she reached the top of the bay trying to see what was happening.

Mark had followed her and stopped when she did " What is happening Maggie?"

She looked over at him " I don't know Mark, they seem to be shutting the hangar bay down and that has never happened before "

Mark saw Lee " Hey look Maggie Lee is down there with two marines and the commander "

After the bottom level had been shut off Lee looked up and saw Mark and Racetrack " Racetrack make sure no one comes onto that deck and that goes for you to "

Racetrack grabbed Mark's arm " Come on we have to leave "

Mark went along with her " Do you think it is Kara?"

She shook her head " No, they wouldn't close the bay off if it was her, maybe they are meeting with some cylons "

Maggie took Mark with her to the pilots briefing room knowing that would be where most of them would go.

[BREAK]**************************************************************************************************************

Lee and Adama stood there waiting with Venner and Mathis close by waiting for the raiders to land.

Adama was rocking front to back " She better have a fraking good reason for all of this "

Lee was calm " She does "

Adama stopped rocking " How can you be so sure?"

Lee laughed " Cause she is Starbuck and Aurora's chosen one, she is controlling the situation, a fact you will be glad she did later "

Before Adama could respond the raiders were landing, and he just remembered Roslin was waiting for him in his office, frak he hoped Starbuck could contain this situation fast.

The raiders opened up and people began walking out of them, but Lee didn't see Kara or Helo.

Kara was telling Boomer to hang back and she had Willow hide in the back corner before she walked out.

Kara waited until she saw Lee and Adama before walking their way then Lee saw her and they both kinda trotted to close the distance between them.

Lee grabbed her and pulled her off her feet as she wrapped her arms around him, then they both leaned back and looked at each other before Lee leaned close and kissed her, she kissed him back for a second before pulling back " I missed you so much Lee "

Lee hugged her tight one more time and whispered " I missed you too"

Then they heard Adama clear his throat so they pulled apart and stepped back. Then Adama pulled her into a hug then pulled back to look at her " I hope you can contain this fast because Roslin is in my office "

Kara hands flew to her mouth " Oh my gods "

Adama spoke up " Lee filled me in on most of it, so what is the most important thing you need to get done "

Kara looked from Lee to Adama wondering how much they knew " I need to get someone to the Aurora right now, trust me it is very important to finding Earth, but no one can know about her yet "

Lee looked at his dad " I can do that Eloshi told me to come anytime I wanted to "

Adama nodded " Okay that's settled what else Kara?"

Kara stuttered " Sir it. its a cylon that I want on the Aurora "

Lee grabbed her hand " We know Kara and we know about you and Aurora "

Kara shut her eyes " Oh my gods, how and who else knows that?"

Lee still had her hand " Mark, dad and me, so tell us what you need done "

Kara was standing there on the verge of tears " I'm sorry Lee I didn't know until a few days ago and I was afraid to come back here and tell you "

Lee squeezed her hand " It's okay Kara, now what else, we have to hurry "

Kara straightened up " Boomer and Athena saved me and Helo on Caprica and they now believe in our gods, not the cylon god and I need them protected " Kara paused to catch her breath " There is more, but for now believe me when I say we have a mole in with the cylons who will feed us info through Boomer and I need Boomer to watch my back " she paused once more " I think I am in danger from more than just the cylons "

Lee pulled her hand " Take me to Willow and I will get her onto the Aurora "

Adama stopped them " I will put Athena, Boomer and Helo in life station until you finish with Lee and put the resistance in a conference room "

Kara looked at Adama " Thank you sir and I promise I have good reasons for everything I have done and Anders from the resistance has the Arrow of Apollo "

[BREAK]***************************************************************************************************************

Kara took Lee to the raider and had him step inside " Boomer go get Athena and Helo, the commander is going to place you all in life station while I get Willow taken care of "

Boomer went over to talk to Lee while Kara got Willow.

Lee stuck his hand out " Thank you Boomer for bringing her back to me "

Boomer had to ask " Does the chief know about me?"

Lee shook his head " No, I couldn't tell him that on top of telling him you had been killed, I'm sorry"

Boomer looked back before she left " I'll see you later Starbuck, bye Willow "

Willow was standing there looking at Lee like she was judging him " Kara you might want to introduce us "

Kara walked over to them " Willow this is Lee, he is going to take you to the Aurora where you will be safe "

Willow stepped back " I need to be with you Kara in case " she trailed off looking at Lee " well you know why "

Kara stood in front of her " Willow you will not be safe with me and you know I need you to much for something to happen to you, so please go with Lee and I will come over tomorrow to see you, okay?" she still didn't move " Willow you can trust Lee I trust him with my life and you can to"

Lee had been watching the two of them, he noticed that although Willow was a woman she seemed more child like and she seemed to adore Kara and that's the other thing he noticed she called her Kara when everyone else called her Starbuck. Lee had never seen Kara have that much patience for anyone before.

Lee stopped musing and held out his hand " Hello Willow, we have to hurry up before we cause Kara to get in trouble " he had a feeling that she would do anything to keep Kara from getting in trouble

Kara swung around to look at Lee about to say something to him when Willow took his hand " Then we better go, bye Kara "

Kara was standing there with her mouth hung open then Lee turned and winked at her " Hurry up and finish Kara we have lost time to make up for when I get back"

Kara had her hand wrapped hoping Lee wouldn't notice it before she could get to Cottle. As soon as he was out of sight she took off for life station.
