CHAPTER-32

As Caprica stood in the base star control center she watched and listened as all of the Leobon models were being picked up and placed on base stars. She knew that Cavil would put the Leobon that was obsessed with Starbuck on their main base star.

They were leaving a lot of cylons on Caprica to deal with any unresolved issues, but not any Leobons. Caprica knew that Starbuck had gotten everyone off of Caprica and back to the fleet.

She felt someone behind her and turned to see the eight who had been with Leobon. " What do you want eight I am busy?"

Eight was nervous she wanted to ask Caprica things, but she knew the colonials had killed her " Did you know that Boomer and Athena have chosen to be with the humans?"

Caprica laughed " Kinda hard not to when they stood back and let them kill me "

Eight moved until she was standing next to Caprica " Athena and Starbuck told me some things, I want to know if they are true "

Caprica played along " What did they tell you?"

Eight looked around to make sure they were still alone " Athena and Boomer no longer believe in the cylon god, but seem to believe in Starbuck's gods, and Starbuck asked me if I had ever seen or heard anything to make me know for sure that there is a cylon god " Eight paused " I haven't, so I wanted to ask you if you knew for sure there if there is a cylon god?"

Caprica had an idea of what Athena and Starbuck was trying to let the eight know " I only know what Cavil has always told us "

Eight nodded " Starbuck also said that no god or gods would want billions of people to be murdered "

Caprica decided to meet her half-way " Boomer said the same thing to me and I have to admit it has me questioning things, but you can't ever say anything to Cavil about this, he could have you boxed "

Eight nodded, she had decided " Then I will do what Starbuck said and keep my eyes and ears open and I might find some answers "

Caprica sighed " You do that eight and let me know if you hear or see something, but I think you need to stay away from Leobon "

Eight nodded " Don't worry I had already planned on that " before she walked away she said " Thanks for listening Caprica "

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

Cavil was in the hangar deck looking at Leobon as he laid on the floor of the raider all beat up " That is what you get for not doing what I told you to " Cavil sneered " I think I will let you suffer a while longer until I get you help or kill you so you can download "

Leobon was begging " Please kill me Cavil I need to find Kara Thrace, she belongs with me "

Cavil leaned down until he was inches from Leobon's face " You are never stepping foot off of any base star again and if you do the centurions have been programed to kill you and then I will box you "

" Why?" Leobon cried

Cavil looked at him one more time " You have wasted enough of our time and resources because of your fixation on Kara Thrace and it ends now "

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

Natalie had entered the main room on the base star and stopped to watch Caprica, she seemed to be monitoring the two's as they were being brought aboard three different base stars. Natalie knew Caprica was up to something, but so far she hadn't figured it out.

She finally approached Caprica and decided to be up front about her suspicions " Caprica may I ask what you have been up to the last few days?"

Caprica glanced at Natalie before looking back to the monitors " The same thing everyone else has been doing, trying to find the rouge eight and Boomer "

Natalie sighed " You can trust me, I know that a six has been missing for the last week and even though I don't know what you are doing I have been covering for you with Cavil "

Caprica turned to face her " Natalie I can't tell you anything right now, but I need you to trust me and not mention the missing six to Cavil or anyone else " Caprica paused " I can tell you that the missing six who we now call Willow is doing something very important "

Natalie nodded " Fine, I won't say anything about Willow for now, if you will help me convince Cavil to box Leobon if he tries anything else "

Caprica cocked her head " Why do you want Leobon out of the way?"

Natalie grinned " I can't tell you that right now " she used the same excuse Caprica had.

Before either one could say anything else Cavil came storming in " We are jumping to Kobol in forty-five minutes, I think we have all of the two's accounted for "

Natalie turned to look at him " How many base stars are we taking?"

Cavil rolled his eyes " I think all we will need is this one, besides there are a lot of things left to do here on Caprica "

Caprica stayed for about five minutes before leaving the room. As soon as she found an unoccupied area she sent the message to Boomer.

Now she needed to find out what Natalie and the eight were up to.

Caprica didn't think she would miss Willow and the others as much as she did, but she had a job to do and and she intended on keeping the promise she had made to Aurora. She hoped to see them all again soon.

Caprica returned to the main room right before the jump to Kobol.

Cavil was livid and started barking out orders the second he realised the humans had already left Kobol " I want five groups of raiders sent out with three raiders to each group and don't return until you find the fleet "

After Lee assured Helo that Mark could be trusted he walked over to where Mark, Kara and Racetrack were talking.

Kara was asking Mark something " Where were you last night when I had CIC page you?"

Mark grinned at Kara after looking at Maggie " That's not important, all you need to know is that I will be setting everything up for the dinner tonight as soon as Maggie can fly me back to Cloud Nine "

Lee spoke up before Kara could respond " Mark can I talk to you alone for a minute?"

Kara who had been standing casually with her arms crossed dropped them to her sides " What's going on Lee?"

Before Lee could say anything Mark answered " I wouldn't ask questions Kara it might be a surprise for you "

Kara chuckled " Yeah, like I would believe that, whatever " she then turned back to talk to Racetrack

Lee stopped after they had walked far enough away that Kara couldn't here " Mark I am taking Kara to the Aurora she needs to check on someone and if Adam is still there I am going to have to tell Kara " Lee paused " Do you think Adam is ready for Kara to know about him?"

It took Mark a second " Wow Lee, I don't know, maybe " Mark looked over at Kara " It will be a huge moment for Adam, but it is going to be a very intense thing for Kara because all she knows is that he walked away from her when she was a child and now she thinks he is dead "

Lee was also watching Kara " I know, I'm scared she is going to freak out, I mean between the Aurora stuff and finding Earth or someplace else for the fleet it is already taking it's toll on her and now there is her dad "

Mark turned to face Lee " Look Lee all you can do is make sure she knows you are there for her and leave the rest of it up to the gods "

Several feet away Kara and Racetrack had been talking about Athena and Boomer " Racetrack I need to know straight up if you can accept them as part of the fleet, after what they did to us?"

Racetrack seem to think about it as she first looked at Helo and Athena then the chief and Boomer " I think I can Starbuck especially since Apollo and the Commander seem to have accepted them "

Starbuck nodded " Good, because we are going to need their help and as stupid as it sounds I trust Boomer with my life "

Racetrack grinned " Your right it sounds stupid, but I know you are not a stupid person, so that means you must have your reasons "

Starbuck smirked " Thanks I think, now I need to get Lee we have to go, I'll see you later "

Lee and Mark watched as Kara approached them "Are you ready to go Captain ?"

As Lee was saying " Let's go " Mark had grabbed Kara and hugged her tightly, surprising Kara " Are you okay Mark?" she asked trying to pull away

Mark finally let her go " Yeah, I am just glad your back " he turned to go to Maggie then stopped looking over his shoulder at her " I hope you have a good day Kara "

Kara looked at Lee " Now I know something is going on Lee, so what is it?"

Lee took her hand and started walking, but let go as soon as he saw that she was coming with him " I promise by the end of the day you will know what is going on "

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

Eloshi and Willow were in the section of the Aurora where the men and women came together for their morning prayers and meals. It wasn't a large ship, but it also wasn't the smallest in the fleet. The Aurora was home for about three hundred people and could house another hundred if it had to. All of them were religious, most of them were believers of Aurora, but not all.

Eloshi had received two calls since last night. The first was Roslin late last night asking to come to the Aurora today, but Eloshi had told her she would be off ship most of the day tomorrow and would meet her on Colonial One. The second was from Kara Thrace early this morning asking if she could come and see her and Willow. She was now waiting with Willow for Kara to show up after letting Adam know Kara would be there soon. Adam had said he would stay out of sight while they met.

Eloshi had not had to explain to anyone that Willow was a cylon simply because they did not know what the six cylon looked like. She looked across the table at Willow who kept looking at the hatchway waiting to see Kara.

Since Lee had been on the Aurora Kara followed him, she couldn't help but notice that Lee kept looking around for someone. " Lee, is everything okay?"

Lee slowly turned to look at her " Yeah, I'm just trying to remember the way to their mess hall " gods he thought, he hoped she believed him.

Kara didn't get a chance to say anything else before she heard Willow " Kara, Kara " she looked up ahead of her and saw Willow and Eloshi and headed their way.

Kara didn't get a chance to pick where she was sitting " You can sit by me Kara "

Kara had forgotten how intense Willow could be since she had only known her for a short while, after glancing at Lee who shrugged she sat by Willow " So Willow, do you like the Aurora?"

Willow got excited and started bobbing her head " I love the Aurora and Eloshi and I like Adam too "

Kara looked across at Eloshi " Who is Adam?"

Willow starting trying to answer " He is " then Eloshi cut her off " Willow would you show Apollo around why I talk to Kara?"

Lee jumped up " That is a good idea, Willow do you know how to get to the bridge?"

Willow stood up slowly " I guess so "

Although Kara knew something was up she also knew she wouldn't find out until Willow left " Go ahead Willow, I will be here when you get back "

Kara heard Lee and Eloshi let out a sigh of relief and waited until they left " What is going on Eloshi?"

Eloshi stood up " A lot we need to talk about, let's go to the Temple "

Kara followed her and waited until they sat down " What do we need to talk about?"

Eloshi turned to face Kara " Willow told me everything about you and Aurora and how she is the only one who can project Aurora "

Kara stayed calm and still " Do you believe her?"

Eloshi chuckled " Kinda hard not to when Aurora herself wants to talk to me "

Kara sighed loudly " Thank the gods, because I need your advice?"

Eloshi tilted her head " Advice about what?"

Kara glared at her " About what the frak I am supposed to do "

Eloshi reached for one of her hands and held it between both of hers " You are supposed to find your people a new home, so they can have a fresh start, a new beginning, that is your destiny Kara "

Kara lowered her head and whispered " How am I supposed to find this new home, especially when Roslin believes she is the dying leader and Pythia is supposed to guide us to Earth?"

Eloshi squeezed her hand " Look at me Kara, there will be clues that only you will recognize and Aurora has asked me to take care of Roslin and if I can't change her mind then I am to reunite the religions as one to follow Aurora's Chosen One, and before you ask, no one will know who the Chosen One is "

Kara was still looking at Eloshi " Why would she pick someone as screwed up as me for this?"

Eloshi smiled " Aurora chose you because of your strength and your strong belief in the gods, she knew before you were born that you could be a strong leader if you chose to be and you are Kara " Eloshi stayed quiet a minute " Ever since this war began Kara you have fought every step of the way for the survival of this fleet and there are people willing to follow you already " Eloshi laughed " You have even managed to change some cylons belief from their god to yours and apparently Aurora trusted your judgement and used a cylon as a bridge between you and her "

Kara turned to face the front of the Temple " Eloshi will you pray silently with me for the strength to do what Aurora has asked of me?"

Eloshi simply nodded and turned to face the front also.

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

Lee waited until Willow and he had walked a couple of hatches away before pulling Willow to a stop " Willow, do you know who Adam is?"

Willow wasn't sure if she should say since it seemed like Eloshi and Lee had not wanted her to say anything " Maybe "

Lee smiled " It's okay if you do Willow, we just didn't want you to tell Kara "

Willow smiled " He is Kara's dad and I think he was sad about it "

Lee motioned for them to walk " He is sad because he is afraid Kara won't forgive him for leaving her when she was a child "

Willow paused for a step " Oh, but he had a good reason for leaving her "

Lee smiled " I know he did I just hope Kara will forgive him "

Willow looked beside her at him " She will it just might take her a little while "

Before Lee could respond he heard someone call him and he looked back into the hatchway they had just passed " Hey Adam, Willow and I were just talking about you "

Adam stayed inside not wanting Kara to see him yet " Come in here a minute, both of you "

They walked inside and Lee saw it was a pantry " Is this one of your restocking days Adam?"

Adam nodded " Where is Kara and how is her hand?"

Lee smiled " She is with Eloshi somewhere "

Willow tugged on Lee's shirt " Was the doctor able to fix Kara's hand?"

Adam spoke more urgently " Lee what happened to Kara's hand?"

Lee was trying to figure out how to explain about her hand, then Willow jumped in.

Willow faced Adam " The cylon Leobon slammed her hand in a door breaking all of her fingers and her wrist along with some busted ribs "

Adam paled " Oh my gods "

Lee wasn't sure what to say " Doc Cottle was able to re-break the bones and reset them, she should be back to flying in a couple of weeks, maybe"

Willow decided to change the subject " Adam and Eloshi talked to Aurora last night Lee "

Lee was lost in thinking of different ways to torture Leobon and almost missed what Willow said " Why would she talk to Eloshi or you Adam?"

Adam had finally caught up with the conservation " She needed to speak to Eloshi about the president and bringing all the different servants of the gods together to follow Aurora's Chosen One, I really don't know why she showed herself to me, except to tell me it was time to make my presence known and Kara would need me later "

Lee sighed " I wasn't sure if now was the time to tell Kara about you or not, but it seems Aurora thinks it is time, so how should we do this?"

Willow answered " I will stay here with Adam and Lee I think you should tell Kara that her dad is alive instead of her just running into him without some warning "

Adam agreed " She is right Lee and after you tell her let her decide when she wants to see me "

Lee nodded " Okay, but don't you think I should also tell her you have always known about her and Aurora, after all that is the reason you had to leave her?"

Willow nodded " Tell her she needs to know that, if she has to decide what to do "

Lee sighed " Fine I'll go find her now "

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

Kara and Eloshi had left the Temple and was headed back to the mess hall " Eloshi I need to tell you that Lee, Adama, Roslin and myself are having dinner tonight on Cloud Nine to decide which course we are going to follow and since Aurora wants you to talk to Roslin you need to join us, especially since it looks like we are going to have to tell her Aurora's Chosen One is in the fleet, but I don't want to tell her it is me unless there is no other way "

Eloshi stopped and looked at her " Kara does the Commander know about you?"

Kara sighed " Yes, apparently Lee figured it out while I was gone although I'm still not sure how he figured it out "

Eloshi began walking again " I guess I should join you then, Aurora said if I couldn't change her mind the fleet would start dividing "

Kara barely got " Thank you " out when she heard Lee call out for her behind her.

Lee caught up with them when they stopped " Kara I need to talk to you about something very important "

Eloshi could see in his eyes what he was going to tell her " Where is Willow?"

Lee looked at Eloshi " She is in the pantry "

Eloshi looked at Kara " I am going to find Willow call me later and let me know what time I need to be there "

Kara nodded and watched her walk away then looked at Lee " Please tell me you are not going to tell me something bad, not today anyway "

Lee shrugged " I'm sorry Kara, you might not think it is to bad, at least I hope not "

Kara saw they were standing in the walk way " I guess we are on the wrong ship to get a drink, it figures, well I guess we do this sober "

Lee reached and grabbed her hand " Let's go to the Temple and talk "

Kara groaned " Why there, I just left the Temple "

Lee grinned " I was counting on you not being able to holler and cuss if we talked there "

Kara finally smirked " Let's go cause I highly doubt you could tell me anything to top Aurora or cylons changing sides, or the dinner from hades we are going to tonight "

Lee chose to not comment and walked to the Temple with her.

After they sat down Kara spoke first " Okay, hit me with it "

Lee was thinking he should have let Mark do this, maybe he could wait or stall " Kara I know about your mom, but what about your dad?"

Kara looked at him suddenly " I thought you had something to talk to me about?"

Lee looked away from her " I will in a minute, just tell me about your dad "

Kara was starting to get pissed off, so she stood up " He left when I was eight mom said it was my fault, there you happy, now frak off " and she started out of the Temple.

Lee said the only thing he could to stop her " He is alive and in the fleet "

Kara stumbled and caught herself before tripping and slowly sat down on the last pew by the door "What did you say?"

Lee got up and walked to where she was sitting and knelt down beside her laying one hand lightly on her leg " I have met him Kara, he is the one that wanted you warned about the cylons and he is the one that confirmed Aurora had chosen you "

Kara couldn't seem to form any words so she stayed silent.

Lee decided to keep talking and maybe he would say the right thing " He did leave because of you, but not for the reasons your mom had you believe " he moved his hand slightly on her leg " Only the Oracle and your dad knew about you and Aurora, and someone started trying to find Aurora's chosen one when word spread that the chosen one was alive and among the people, so your dad left to protect you, so they wouldn't connect you to him " Lee paused when he felt tears falling onto his hand " He knows other things, but he will only tell them to you "

Kara finally looked at him " When did you find out Lee?"

Lee smiled sadly " The day you jumped away I went to see Mark to pick up the letter you left and when I told him you jumped to Caprica your dad had been listening at the door and he busted up into Mark's office demanding answers " Lee chuckled " Mark and I both jumped out of our seats, he startled us so bad, anyway I then asked him who the frak he was demanding answers and that is when he told us "

Kara cocked her head " Wait are you saying Mark knew to?"

Lee shook his head " No, Mark found out when I did, we just didn't know it was Adam "

Kara looked at him funny " Lee my dad's name is not Adam "

Lee grinned " I know it is Daniel, but only you and I know that, everyone else thinks he is Adam " then Lee remembered " Willow told me Aurora talked to Eloshi and your dad last night "

Kara thought a minute " So Willow and Eloshi know he is my dad?"

Lee nodded " After last night they do " Lee added " Willow likes him a lot, she is with him now "

Kara stood up so fast Lee landed on his butt " You mean he is here right now?"

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

After leaving the pilots briefing room Helo, Athena, Boomer and the Chief went to the mess hall to eat with their security escorts Venner and Mathis.

Helo knew the Chief was still feeling awkward so he told most of what happened on Caprica with Boomer and Athena telling about some things themselves.

After thirty minutes Anders and three of his teammates entered the mess. Anders walked over to them as soon as he saw them " How are you guys doing?"

Helo answered " Grabbing a bite and telling the Chief here about our vacation on Caprica "

Anders laughed " I wouldn't recommend it as such " then he stuck his hand out to the chief " Hello I am Sam Anders, I was one of the ones these guys rescued from that hellhole of a place "

Chief shook his hand " Chief Tyrol everybody just calls me Chief though "

Anders looked at Boomer " Hey Boomer are you okay?"

Boomer was spaced out and didn't answer, so Athena reached over and touched her " Boomer what's wrong?" Athena asked loudly

Boomer all of a sudden jerked back " Where is Starbuck and Apollo?" she asked in a panic

Helo had to think " They are on the Aurora "

Boomer stood up pacing " Corporal Venner I need to speak to the commander now "

Athena jumped up " Boomer what is happening?"

Boomer saw Venner not responding so she she rounded on Galen " Chief I need you to call the CIC now "

Chief grabbed the phone in the mess and as soon as Adama was on the line he turned to Boomer " Sharon he is on the line "

Boomer wasted no time " Sir the cylons have teams out now searching and when they find the fleet they are going to jump in and target the smaller ships fast and jump out, repeating it until they have destroyed as many of the smaller ships as they can "

Boomer listened as he ordered the Aurora to be surrounded before she cut in " Sir if you do that they will know that ship is special and then they will not stop until it is destroyed "

Boomer listened then hung up " Chief the Commander said to get two raptors outfitted with weapons, Helo you are the acting CAG he said to make sure the alert vipers were ready and pull the CAP in close and Athena you get suited up for a raptor I am heading to the CIC" Boomer looked around and saw that the only people in the room besides the chief knew everything " Our priority is Starbuck, Willow and Apollo in that order, understood?"

Sam spoke up " What can we do Boomer?"

Boomer looked at the Chief " Can you use them to help out with the weapons Chief?"

Chief fell into military protocol forgetting their differences " Yes sir "

Boomer turned back to Anders " Follow the Chief and do what he tells you, now go people "

Everyone left to follow a cylons orders without thinking twice, even Venner and Mathis went with Boomer to see what they could do.

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

Lee got up off the floor while Kara was pacing " Kara he said to let you decide when and if you wanted to see him "

Kara stopped " What would you do Lee?"

Lee walked up to stand by her " I don't know Kara, but I do know our worlds have ended and you are now supposed to save us all and on top of that you just went through hell on Caprica and I'm thinking maybe your dad can help you with this destiny thing or maybe just be your dad " Lee waited before saying anything else for a while then he softly said " I like your dad Kara, he is a good guy, but I will do whatever you need me to do"

Kara was opening her mouth to say something when Willow came flying in the room " Kara you and Lee need to go to the bridge the Commander said it is urgent "

They glanced at each other once before running in a full out sprint to the bridge. Willow heard Aurora whisper " Go with them now Willow "

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

Caprica was at a loss as what to do after she warned Boomer, she knew it wasn't enough just to warn them. Caprica had gotten lucky and walked in when Cavil had ordered the smallest fleet ships to be hit and then to jump away and to continuing doing it until the fleet suffered great losses. She knew it was no way the Galactica could cover all of the smaller ships and she was worried for Starbuck and Willow.

Caprica wished she had someone she could trust on the base star, but she hadn't made up her mind about the eight or Natalie.

Eight had been watching Caprica and she could tell something was wrong, so she approached her " Caprica why is Cavil not targeting the Galactica?"

Caprica really didn't know why he was using that strategy " I'm not sure eight it doesn't make sense considering we will take losses ourselves "

Eight decided to give her opinion " He has been acting strange ever since Kobol, I think he thinks one of us warned the colonials we were coming to Kobol "

Caprica quickly turned to look at eight " Why do you think that "

Eight shrugged " He is doing something we would not normally do and if the colonials catch on then he will know it is one of us "

Caprica thought as strange as it sounded eight might be right, so if she had not told Boomer then the fleet wouldn't have changed anything and Cavil would stop thinking there was a traitor. Then if eight was wrong and the fleet wasn't warned they would have losses. Caprica needed to let Boomer hold off on doing anything until Cavil struck first if he even did and make sure Willow was on the Galactica for a while.

Caprica left the control room and headed to her personal quarters to contact Boomer.

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

Boomer was in the CIC when Caprica sent her another message, now she needed to get the commander alone. Boomer eased over by Adama and waited until he was as alone as he was going to be and whispered " Sir, I have new intel " she nodded toward the situation room.

Adama got her meaning " Colonel your in charge " and he walked into the situation room Boomer had already entered.

Boomer got right to it " Sir my contact said not to change anything she thinks Cavil knows he has a mole and is trying to flush her out, she doesn't think he will strike, but advices us to not do anything until he does " Boomer paused " She did say that if Willow is on a smaller ship she should be relocated to the Galactica until she can confirm one way or the other "

Adama had been listening it sounded plausible " Do you think that is what is going on?"

Boomer nodded " It sounds like something Cavil would do especially since he thinks we were tipped off about Kobol "

The phone rang " Adama " he answered

It was Dee frak " Sir I have Captain Thrace on the line "

Adama barked out " I want a secure line now petty officer "

Dee gritted out " Yes sir putting it through now"

" Captain Thrace relieve the Captain of the Aurora now, I need to speak to you and Captain Adama privately " Commander Adama ordered

Kara glanced at the Captain who had heard " Yes sir doing it now, wait one "

Lee pulled the door shut only after Willow insisted Aurora told her to be there, he turned and shrugged at Kara who looked at Willow and put her finger to her lips telling her to keep quite " We are clear Commander "

They listened why Adama repeated what Boomer had told him then he asked " Captain Thrace she is your mole what do you think?"

Kara cleared her throat " I agree with Boomer sir I trust her "

Adama sighed " Very well Captain, but it is up to you to find a way of getting her onto the Galactica asap, Adama out "

Kara, Lee and Willow left without saying anything letting the Captain of the Aurora back in.

They all stopped when they found an empty room.

Lee sighed " I am fresh out of ideas so I'll let you take this one Kara "

Kara noticed Willow was being extra still which was unlike her " What's wrong Willow?"

Willow shrugged " Aurora told me to go to the bridge with you when you went, but nothing happened so I don't understand "

Kara had been pacing " Okay Lee what if we suit her up in one of the pressurised suits on the raptor and figure out how to get her to your office from the raptor?"

Lee laughed " So you want to hide her in the cags office, she will go crazy in that small room, plus I sleep there "

Kara grinned " No you will be in the bunk room and Willow can sleep on your couch and I get your bed "

Willow joined in " It will be fun I can eat in there and I can read while you guys work and Boomer and Athena can visit me and I can meet your dad Lee cause I already met Kara's and I don't know when to shut up "

Kara shut her eyes " Frak I can't believe I forgot that already "

Willow felt the need to fix what she broke " I'm sorry Kara, but your dad is really nice and I like him a lot, if I could have a dad I would want one like him "

Lee needed to derail this topic " Okay let's go back to how we get her from the raptor to my office "

Kara was getting pissed again " We will stick a cap on her head then you and I will leave the raptor and have a huge fight on the hangar deck then I will punch you and Willow can sneak off the raptor while everyone watches your ass hit the deck, how about that Lee?"

Willow was laughing by the time Kara finished " I wonder if that will look as funny as it sounds?"

Even though Kara had been serious she couldn't help but grin at Willow then laughed when Lee stuck his tongue out at both of them.

Kara looked at Willow " Do you have anymore clothes besides what you have on?"

Willow looked at her clothes she had been wearing since leaving the base star " No, can I have some like you guys wear?"

Kara shrugged " I'm sure the CAG can manage to get you some " then she walked over to Lee " Willow and I are going to head to the raptor can you let my dad know I will try to see him tomorrow?"

She was so close Lee could not help but give her a quick peck on the lips " For you Kara anything " and he walked away

Kara turned to find Willow looking at her " What is it Willow?"

She smiled " Lee loves you Kara I can see it, just like I know you love him, I hope I know what that feels like one day "

Kara didn't comment on that " Let's go Willow "
