Opera123: Haha I've never heard any of my stories references to like that before, don't know if it's a good thing or bad thing lol.

LoverOfRumpelstiltskin: Thank you and more is here and more will be along soon.

Nothing to Record

=Rush's P.O.V=

I flicked my eyes open with a soft groan. Where the hell am I? What in god's name happened? It took a second for it to hit me and I groaned softly again before spotting TJ sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Hey," She said softly. "How are you?"

"How did I get here?"

"With a little help from Captain Chase," She smiled lightly. "Plus you're not that heavy" Concern passed through her eyes.

I groaned softly flopping back against the pillow. Hellfire and shit. I made a bloody ass of myself. Just brilliant.

"You passed out for a little while"

"How long?"

"About ten hours," She stated. I shot up feeling dizzy as the blood rushed through my veins. God damn it all to hell, I need to get back to work. "It's probably the first real sleep you've had since we arrived here" She stated placing a hand lightly against my chest to stop me from getting up.

"Has anything happened?"

She shook her head. "Not since we lost power, no, you haven't missed a thing," She stated as I put my hand up to my head with a grimace as pain dug its claws in. "How do you feel?"

Heat swept over my body making my face burn. "Embarrassed"

"Don't be"

"Oh, you weren't there" I stated.

"You're head's pounding right?" I nodded lightly. "How many cups of coffee do you normally drink a day? Four? Five?" I jerked my thumb upwards indicating a higher number. I'd basically lived off my coffee and cigarettes. She smiled sympathetically at me. "You're in caffeine withdrawals, so are about a dozen other people on board, it can make you pretty crazy," She smiled slightly. "You should see the smokers"

"You're looking at one" I said ruefully before rubbing my eyes.

"Double whammy huh?" She chuckled softly before standing. "Well I was going to let you sleep it off but Colonel Young wants you to see something so let's go"

I groaned softly standing before following her out.

=Alex's P.O.V=

I stood in the usable shuttle with the others, a smile rested on everyone's lips as they all chatted about the three planets we'd found.

I glanced over my shoulder and grinned slightly. "Hey! Look who's finally awake"

A slight smile graced Rush's lips as he moved to the front of the shuttle to stand with us. "Orbital insertion trajectory?" He asked.

"That was my first thought"

Both Greer and I began laughing, Young giving a soft chuckle too. "No, your first thought was we're going to fly into the damned thing!" Greer stated with a grin at his friend.

"No," Scott grinned softly. "I'm guessing we'll get close enough to kiss but not enough for capture"

"An aero braking manoeuvre?" I gave a nod to Rush's question as he looked over at me.

"That's over my head but yeah, we should slingshot and come out in the system somewhere"

"So where are the habitable plants?"

Young glanced accusingly at TJ who grinned softly. "I didn't tell him" She stated.

"No but the majority of you are smiling" His eyes stopped on mine giving me a pointed look.

"We're still too far away to get any proper readings but we found three before this big blue brute of a monster filled up the windows" I stated giving him a soft impish grin and nodded towards the windows.

"So this trajectory's no accident then?" I shook my head before he moved to look at the stickers before peeling them off. "Who translated this?" He asked giving everyone an accusatory look. "You know it's completely backwards right?" He asked as he put them back in the right spot.

Scott looked away in embarrassment before standing up. "We'll be clear in about six minutes"

"So we're clear, my definition of habitable includes a sandy beach, tropical climate..."

"There's going to be severe turbulence" Rush stated cutting him off.

Young glanced to him before nodding. "We'll pass the word"

I gave Rush a soft grin. "What?" He asked as I leant on the back of the chair closer to him.

"I must say you really know how to put on a show"

He looked up, wide eyed and face flushed slightly. "You saw that?"

I nodded. "It was a pretty spectacular meltdown love," I stated before smiling slightly. "I've seen several good ones in my life time but yours takes the cake"

He looked away before lowering his tone. "I'm embarrassed enough Alex," He looked past me before raising it his voice for everyone to hear. "We should enter the atmosphere soon, be prepared for a rough ride"

I settled into a chair and buckled the seat belt across my waist as the shuttle rocked slightly before beginning to rock again. I could still remember the severe turbulence and intense g-force from my pilot training, that sickening feeling and creeping darkness that would cling to the corners of my mind after a few hours of training, thankfully over the days and weeks had gotten better until I no longer blacked out or felt sick.

I stood from my spot after unbuckling my seat belt as the shuttle stopped it's violent rocking and moved to where Rush was staring at the consoles. He doesn't look too impressed anymore.

"This is, this is unbelievable," He stated before I came to stand beside him and he motioned to the console. "Look at this"

I glanced at the screen taking in the information before dread filled my stomach making it twist in knots. "That's not good"

"Please... Please everyone! Be quiet!" Rush snapped before sighing. "Our trajectory has changed"

Scott glanced to the screen before looking up to the two of us. "This isn't good"

"What's happened?"

"That planet altered our course more than we hoped," I stated motioning towards the star burning in the distance. "We're heading straight for that star"

TJ's face fell as did everyone else's.

I jumped slightly as a Kino was shoved into my face by Eli. "Record a message" He stated.

"I don't need to Eli" I stated before tapping the Kino to push it back slightly.

"Come on Colonel," He goaded. "Look I'll even do the intro for you if you want," He stated and settled the Kino on me. "This is Colonel Alex Hunter; she's a Colonel and engineer with the English Air force, she's..." He trailed off and I sighed softly before finally glancing up at the Kino.

"It's Alexandra"

"What?"

"My name, if you're going to get it right it's Colonel Alexandra Hunter"

"Oh... right... sorry"

I shook my head lightly. "It's alright and I'm thirty nine"

"Really?"

I nodded as I stared at the Control Interface Room for a moment, I'd wanted to be alone, I'd wanted to traverse Destiny's halls alone and in peace for a little while as I gathered my thoughts and threw my emotions back into check. "I have no one to leave a message for Eli"

"Come on there's gotta be someone"

I shook my head and lowered it slightly. "If I die out here I have no one to mourn for me back home, it was just me and Sean and Sean's gone"

Silence fell over us as he digested the information, the Kino hovering just over his shoulder. I gave the room one last long look before headed out towards Young's room.

Ever since it had come to light that we would head into the star I had been thinking. If Destiny was going to go down I would go down with her. I had come to the decision a long time ago that if we were going to ever get home she was our best chance at it.

"Young?"

He looked up as did Camille. "Colonel Hunter? Can I help you?"

I nodded. "I'm taking my name from the lottery"

"Why?" He seemed almost surprised.

"I've already thought about it and I honestly think Destiny is our best hope of ever getting home and if she is going to go down I might as well go down with her"

"Are you sure?"

I nodded. "Even if there was another way to get back to earth from the planet I can say in all honesty I don't want to go back," I looked between them both at the look of surprise and shock. "I have nothing left there and here, here I am actually useful"

"You can't do this, you could very well be the only chance those that make it through the lottery have if you make it too"

I glared at Camille as she spoke, my temper flaring briefly, no one got to tell me what I could and could not do anymore. "For starters never tell me what I can and cannot do, you have no right," I snapped at her, my stance becoming rigid, muscle tense and hard. "And for another I do not wish to live of a fucking rock with people I hardly know, I would rather die a fiery death with Destiny than watch her burn from afar"

"But you ca..."

"What the hell did I just say?" I growled cutting her off, she snapped her mouth shut and glared lightly at me.

Young gave a nod before digging through his papers and pulling one out. "Are you sure about this?" He asked once again.

I nodded and watched him tear the paper in half. "I will be in my quarters should anyone need me" I stated before saluting the both of them and turning away to head back to my quarters.

More to come, I've recently fallen in love with several character from Game of Thrones and am trying to catch the plot bunnies from them while I nurse this one so it may be a little longer until I have another chapter but it will be up I promise, I am not abandoning this story.
