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

After Adama had placed the call telling Colonel Tigh to stop all flights and lock down all ships he and Kara remained in Mark's office trying to figure out what had happened to Lee.

Kara spoke first " Did you remove Dee from the Galactica?"

Adama looked at her " Yes to the Aria, they really did need someone in communications, why what are you thinking?'

Kara shrugged " It's probably nothing, but I think you should find out if she arrived there, then we need Boomer to check with Caprica to make sure the cylons don't have him, even though I don't think they do "

Kara paced while Adama made the calls trying to think of where to look next.

Adama hung up " Caprica says they don't have him and the Captain of the Aria said Dee arrived there about thirty minutes late "

Kara stopped pacing " We need help, I am going to get Mark and have him call the Aurora "

Adama stopped her " He is either on this ship or they had enough time to move him to another one, but why would they take him?"

Kara had her suspicions " It might be the civilians, because of us having cylons free on Galactica "

Adama got up and left the office " The president better hope she is not behind this "

Kara found Mark working in the back " Hey, can I talk to you in your office?"

Mark nodded " I'll be there in a minute, I need to finish with this order "

Kara tried to sit, but went back to pacing.

Mark walked in " What's going on?"

Kara stopped and faced him " The commander and I used your office to place some calls, Lee is missing Mark and I don't know where to look for him or have any idea who has him " by the end tears were falling

Mark went to her and held her " We will find him Kara I promise, now what can I do?"

Kara pulled back and wiped her eyes " I haven't saw my dad yet and I was hoping you would call him and let him know what has happened, maybe he has connections in the fleet that could help us "

Mark went to the phone " There is some ambrosia on the table if you need a drink, and pour me one if you don't mind "

Kara nodded, a drink is just what she needed, besides she didn't want to listen to Mark talk to her dad.

Mark finished the call " Adam said he hasn't heard anything about it, but he would check with contacts he has on other ships and call us back "

Kara handed Mark his drink and sat across the desk from him " We need to find out who hates the fact that we have cylons on board the Galactica, they are the ones who probably have Lee "

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

Adama headed straight for the table where Eloshi and Roslin were sitting.

Eloshi looked up " Have you found Apollo, commander?"

Adama sat down and looked first at Eloshi " No we haven't " then he glared at Roslin " Do you know where he is Roslin?" he asked in a barely constrained voice.

Roslin glared right at him " No I do not Commander and don't you ever accuse me of something like that again "

Kara walked up " They have finished their search of this ship " Kara paused " I need a few marines to go with me to the Prometheus, that has to be where they are holding him, sir "

Adama watched her for a moment and knew she was barley holding it together " I will send some marines over there Kara, but I need you to go over this ship again more thoroughly than before "

Kara looked down at him " Why sir?"

Adama had her sit down " The more I think about it I don't think anyone would have had time to move him off of this ship even if he was drugged, I think you should go over the sign-in sheet and check out any names that seem suspicious and any women registered alone "

Kara looked hopeful " You think they kept him here to throw us off "

Adama nodded " I do, be careful Starbuck and take someone you trust with you " he looked around the table " We will finish this meeting later, after I find my son "

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

Lee woke up with his hands and feet tied and a blind fold on as well as a gag. He knew he was in a bed he just didn't know where. All he could remember is a woman asking him for help as soon as he stepped off the shuttle. Lee looked at his watch and knew he had about at least twenty minutes before Kara would arrive.

Lee looked at the woman who had long blond hair tied back in a pony tail and he could tell she had been crying " What has happened?"

The woman grabbed his jacket and pulled him towards the garden area " My daughter was playing here and one minute she was here and the next she was gone "

Lee stopped and politely removed her hand " Did you check with security here on Cloud Nine?"

She nodded and started crying again " Show me the last place you saw her " Lee figured the kid might just be hiding for the fun of it.

She nodded " I am Shevon and my daughters name is Pyaya and it was over there " She led him to the edge of the lawn in the corner, out of view and before Lee could react someone had knocked him out cold.

That was all he remembered. Lee knew his dad and Kara probably thought the cylons had him or worse that he was dead. He wish he knew what this woman hoped to gain by doing this.

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

Shevon needed money and what the woman had paid her to do was twice what Palen would have paid her. One part of the plan had been accomplished, now she just had to wait for the right moment for the next part of the plan. So she sat beside the sign in desk waiting, although they had knocked on her door once before the security moved on without checking her room knowing what she did to make money.

Shevon almost hated this as much as she hated working for Palen. She wished she knew what the woman hoped to gain by all of this. When Shevon had been asked she tried to turn it down because it was a colonial officer, but the woman assured her the commander would not want this made public, so she agreed.

Shevon saw a woman come to the desk dressed just like the man had been and she knew this was who she was waiting on. Shevon waited long enough to hear the woman ask for a guest list before making her way back to the room. She knew she had enough time to drug him and it take affect before the woman from downstairs made it to her room.

She pulled the blindfold off after mixing the drug in a fruit juice drink to disguise the taste, then she removed the gag and told him to drink which he did only because he was so thirsty, later he would regret that he did. Right now though as his thoughts became foggy he watched her undress which made him want to touch her.

As she watched him struggle she knew he was close to being ready, so she made sure the door was slightly ajar before untying his hands which immediately went to her breasts. After letting him fondle her breasts a bit longer she moved to untie his feet and in a move which surprised Shevon he grabbed her and rolled them on the bed until he was on top. She never thought she would want to willing be with a man again after she had been forced to in able to survive, but this man was turning her on.

In Lee's fuzzy mind he thought he was with Kara so after tenderly kissing her he left her lips to suck on her neck as she was desperately trying to get his pants off. Lee raised up enough that she used her foot to push them down and right before he was able to enter her the door crashed open making Shevon jump. Lee never looked back " Get out and shut the frakking door "

Kara calmly walked over to the bed and grabbed the hair at the back of his head pulling it away from the woman's neck making Lee face her " I will let your father know you are alive and I can promise you this door " she placed her hand to her heart " will be closed forever from you " then she let go and left the room. Kara had been standing at the open door when Lee moved the woman under him and then her heart broke when he kissed her so tenderly and after another heart breaking moment she busted in not being able to take anymore.

When Kara left the room she had ran into Mark who had been helping her check rooms. Mark saw the pale look on Kara's face and moved toward her as she ran to him wrapping her arms around him sobbing.

Mark had never seen her like this " What happened Kara?"

Kara kept her head against him as she answered " Lee is fine he apparently lost track of time while fraking some woman I have never seen "

Mark pulled back to look at her " Kara something else is going on, Lee loves you and he would never hurt you like that "

Kara completely shut down and backed away from him " You would not say that if you saw what I did, I am going back to the Galactica "

Mark watched her walk away before going to the room she had just left pounding on the door until a woman dressed in a sheer gown opened the door " Where is Lee?" she pointed towards the bed and started to leave, but Mark grabbed her arm " You are not leaving until you explain what in the frak is going on, now sit down "

After she sat down Mark walked over to the bed to find Lee sitting on the edge of the bed with his head between his legs " Lee why in the gods name did you do this to Kara?"

Lee looked up " I don't know " he sobbed " I don't know what happened Mark I thought I was with Kara "

Mark looked over at the woman then back at Lee " So you didn't bed this woman willing?"

Lee jerked his head up to look at Mark " No, I would never cheat on Kara "

Mark didn't think he would, so that meant the woman was up to something.

Mark got up and went over to her " You are going to tell me everything or I will make sure you end up on the Astral Queen "

Shevon looked into his eyes and knew he spoke the truth " A woman approached me a few days ago saying she might need me to frame someone, I wouldn't have agreed, but she offered twice the money I usually make "

Mark looked back at Lee to see him in the same position he had left him in " What else? "

Shevon also glanced at Lee " She told me she wanted it to look like he had been taken and that when the woman came to search the rooms, to drug the man and leave the door open so she would catch him in bed with me "

Mark had to know " What did the woman look like?"

Shevon thought a minute " She was short and had dark skin and even though she wasn't in uniform this time, she was the first time she met with me "

Mark got up and placed a call to the restaurant asking for Commander Adama " Lee is okay, but I need you to put a woman that was involved in the brig until we find out everything "

Adama was worried " Kara ran in and said Lee was alright then she took off running out of here, I am worried about her "

Mark whispered " So am I, just send me two marines and I will take care of Lee and the woman while you check on Kara before she does something bad "

Adama agreed " I will send them now and thanks Mark"

When Mark hung up he went to make Lee get dressed, Mark could tell that he was still feeling the effects of the drug " Lee hurry up the marines will be here in a minute "

Oh gods Lee was shocked when Kara had yanked on his head, because he was sure that she was beneath him on the bed. Lee also knew she would never forgive him, he choked back another sob then looked at Mark " I can't face anyone right now Mark, but the woman she described is Dee she was a petty officer on the Galactia until earlier today, tell my father and he will have her arrested also "

Mark watched Lee start to leave " Where are you going Lee?"

Lee turned around " If you don't mind I am going to hang out in Adam's room for a while or at least until I am able to process the fact that I have lost Kara forever "

After Shevon watched and heard the man she had set up, she looked at Mark " I'm sorry I never thought I would hurt someone that bad?"

Mark had no pity for her " Yes, you hurt two people whose love I have never seen matched before, but more than that you have quite possibly caused this entire fleet to suffer by listening to a deranged woman who had to be removed from the Galactica because she was rejected by the same man she had you set up "

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

Kara was so upset she had to find a restroom to get herself under control before going to the hangar bay. She couldn't help wondering why Lee would do this to her, to them. Kara was finally able to block it away enough to order a raptor for herself only. After lifting off she realised the last place she wanted to go was to the Galactica so she headed to the Aurora to see her dad, that she thought had been dead since she was eight.

After getting clearance she landed and after shutting the raptor down she went to the temple first. At least in there she would have time to be alone. Kara had no idea how long she sat there before she felt someone standing behind her. She slowly turned her head and looked up into her dad's eyes and then the tears she had held back began to fall and this time she couldn't stop them.

Adam ( Daniel) sat down beside her and opened his arms and was shocked when she fell into them and held her as her tears turned into sobs. Neither one of them said anything for a long time.

He pulled back slowly " I am sorry I left you Kara, but it was the only way to keep you safe and I knew you would survive the destruction of the colonies "

Kara pulled away completely " You knew what would happen and you didn't warn anyone?" she asked angrily

Adam looked away a moment then back " Kara I was told that by an Oracle and she didn't even know when it would happen, do you really believe the government or anyone else would believe me or an Oracle?"

Kara didn't have an answer for that mainly because he was right " What else?"

Her dad looked at her and reached for her hand to hold it, so she let him " I always kept an eye on you until you joined the academy and when I found out you would be flying Vipers I got a job on Cloud Nine in case the war broke out " he paused " I knew you would survive it because of Aurora, so that is why I took the job in the hopes I would to, so I could help you with your destiny "

Kara stayed silent for a while then asked " I am tired is there somewhere I can rest without being bothered?"

Adam wanted to ask why she wasn't going back to the Galactica and where had Lee been, but he wanted her here so he didn't ask " I have a small room by the pantry where I stay when I am restocking, you can stay there "

Kara stood up " Show me where and we can talk more later " even seeing her dad couldn't stop the pain she was feeling.

As soon as her dad left she fell into the bed and she cried herself to sleep with the images of Lee and that woman together.
