*While he waits for CMS to awaken, PR considers maybe using the wish-powder to bring Soul back to the land of the living.*

I guess it could work. But then again... I doubt Needleseye would be very pleased if he came back splattered in a bloody mess all over her...and I doubt anynone else would be too pleased.

Poor Soul.


*He looked at Serenity.*

Poor Serenity. I can't believe I'm gonna tell her this.

SAFEAT2ND


Safe wanders the corridors of Sereni-TREE lost in thought. Firing his guns in combat has long since lost it's impact on him. It had become second nature. A thought that had disturbed him at one time. He had had a harder time dealing with casualties of combat. He had always blamed himself for the losses. That's why he preferred working by himself.

Jack didn't count. He was a kindred spirit and could take care of himself. He knew the risks. Jack was less of a partner, more of another weapon in Safes arsenal. As impersonal as that may seem, it was the only way Safe could insulate himself.

What Safe couldn't shake, was the connection he was starting to feel to the band of people he had just fought with. The loss of the man named Soul had affected him more than he was willing to admit. While it wasn't as bad as what he had seen behind the grim face of the Gunslinger and on the naked faces of the rest of the crew of this boat, it was there none the less.

*Serenity travels the deserts of her mind. She walks a path between the living and the dead. She is exhausted, her journey has been long and hard, but still she pushes herself forward. Mile after dusty mile she travels, haunted by visions and dreams that tumble over her like so many ocean waves.*

*Suddenly she sees something on the path ahead of her. A figure stands out starkly in the torn and twisted landscape. *

Soul.

*She begins to run but stumbles. There is a hand reaching to help her up and then she is in his arms.*

*An eternity passes, or just a few minutes, and neither says a word. Then Soul stirs, reaches a hand up to brush the hair off her face and kisses her forehead.*

You have to go back now.

I don't want to go back. I want to stay with you.

You have to go back. They need you.

I know.

*She turns her head away. It hurts to look at him. A single tear runs down her cheek and he wipes it away with his thumb and turns her face back to his.*

*They kiss. One last, sweet, kiss farewell.*

I will love you forever.

*And he is torn from her arms. She screams his name, reaching for him as the wind howls around her.*


SOUL!!

*Serenity sits straight up in the bed in the med lab. PsychicRiver is at her side, trying to force her to lay back down. She grabs his arm, her eyes wild as she takes in her surroundings. Finally, her breathing calms and she lays back down.*

How are you doing? *PR asks tentatively after a few silent minutes.*

It hurts all over. And I'm very thirsty *she admits.*

*PR brings her a glass of water and she sips at it, puts it down. PR fidgets for a bit and then clears his throat.*

Serenity, there's something I have to tell you. Soul...

*She interrupts him.* I know. I already know.

*And she turns on her side, her back to him, her face to the wall.*

You...uh, you broke your wing. TRM fixed you up, but, it'll take a few weeks to heal properly.

*Silence.*

Can I...get you anything?

CMS: No thank you.

I-I have something, for you.

*PR wasn't sure if this was the right time to give it to her, but he felt that she needed something of his. Something to do hold onto.*

*She turned around to face PR slowly.*

*He reached down to the floor, and picked up Soul's bow, and quiver.*

*He extended them to Serenity.* He would have wanted you to keep it.

SAFEAT2ND


Safe's wandering brings him to the lounge. He spots Jack, Jazaf & Deuce sitting at a table quietly sharing a drink. He pulls out a chair and slumps into it.

Jack slides the bottle over to him. Safe catches the bottle, and pours two glasses. One glass he places in the centre of the table , the other he holds up and is joined by Jack, Jazaf and Deuce in a wordless toast. All four toss back the harsh liquid and lower thier glasses.

The bottle is passed around and all glasses are refilled, the fifth glass remains full and un-touched in the centre of the table. The wordless toast is repeated and the glasses are again drained.

Pretty soon, this silent ritual has gained the attention of the rest of the occupants of the lounge and it is not long before all join in with their beverage of choice.

Thank you, both of you. But I really want to be alone right now.

*She stands up, painfully, and shrugging off their attempts to help, begins making her way back to her room, clutching the bow and quiver to her as if her life depended on it.*

JAZAF


Jazaf puts a hand on his forehead as he remembers finding Soul. He hadn't been on the ship that long but the blow was just as hard.
'So gorram easy to get along with.' he whispered to himself.

He pushes himself from the table abruptly startling some, the others were too affected by the grief 'I.....have to .....meditate on this' was the only excuse he could offer before he stalked down the hall to his personal chambers. Maybe it was the liqour or maybe the loss, most likely it was both, but Jazaf couldn't help but feel upset at Soul.

He locked his door and used the last bits if metal in his room to form a stand-a-lone wall. After wrapping his wrists in cloth he began to throw his fists into the 2-inch think metallic barrier. Not caring who heard he also began throwing his questions.
'Why did you choose yourself?'
'Couldn't there have been another solution?'
'Why were you the only one to make the choice?'

After a few minutes Jazaf couldn't even feel his knuckles and the metal barrier only suffered minor dents, but his rage had been satiated. Once he recovered fully he got in his meditative stance and projected himself to his own little world.

A darkened figure stood there, waiting for Jazaf. It meant no ill-will and Jazaf certainly sensed no malice from the being.
'We', the figure started, 'have to talk.'

Several minutes later Jazaf came out of his meditation and headed for the door to join the crew for the rest of the wake. The figure's last words etched into his mind.....
'Tell No One.'

'I swear.' Jazaf said as he walked out the door.

*PR and Mai looked to Serenity, as she left. Both of them worried for her.*

*Then Monkeytail appeared.*

Hi...?

Are you...okay?

MT: This is the TREE, right?

Mai: Yeah.

PR: Most people are in the common room....saying there farewells...and...such.

*PR wandered off from the two, and into the common-room. He made his way to his own bed.*

*After what felt like an hour of not being able to sleep, PR got up from his bed, only wearing his PJ shorts, and grabbed a sleeping bag and left his room.*

*He could still hear some voices down by the bar, as he made his way up through the ship.*

*PR pushed open the door to the obeservatory lounge. The room was small, and had a dome-like feel to it. And most of the walls, were wide glass windows. It made PR feel like he was the snowman in a very small snow-globe.*

*PR looked out at the stars and whispered a few words for the departed soul.*

Now you belong to heaven, and the stars spell out your name.

*He knew that he would be able to find peace enough to sleep up here, so he rolled out his sleeping bag.*

And I'll make my bed, with the stars above my head...

*still confused, MT looks up at Mai* I'm a little lost here. Mind showing me around? I haven't been on the Tree since it was still a tree attached to the ground. I'd like to find some of my former Tree mates if possible too. I haven't seen TheRealMe since the fight on Whitefall, and I can't remeber the last time I saw TWG or Ebo.

I'd be more then happy to show you around MT. The tree hasn't changed all that much but we've been through a lot since we were rooted to the ground. Things haven't been going well, we've lost a dear friend, Soul, and everyone else is just trying to recuperate from this last terrible adventure.

TRM, TWG, and all the others are still here, though im sure there some new faces since you've been here last. As for our Capt. Ebo I can't say I've seen her in sometime either.

Maybe the first thing we should do is find you a room to settle into and then I'll give you the grand tour.

EBONEZER


*a white light shines from above, engulfing the pooltable in a pool of light. Amazingly, a stiff wind begins to blow, throwing papers, small woodland creatures, and belgin waffles around the room. The light gets brighter and brighter as the other lights in the room dim, The inhabitants of the treehouse have to look away, for the light is too bright for their mortal eyes look at.*

Suddenly it is all over. Standing on top of the pooltable is a tall, thin woman with cherry red hair.

it is Captian Ebonezer.

she has returned.

Static appears at the door of the bridge and makes his way towards his cockpit, stopping at the comms station where TheRealMe sits, a concerned look on his face.

"This may sound like a silly question, but what's wrong?"

TRM shrugs, "The Nelson is still in hyperspace, and they're not responding to hails."

Static frowns, "That's odd. Computer."

The Eddie Izzard/James Mason flight control computer responds, "Yes?"

"The Admiral Nelson is still in hyperspace. Can you locate her?"

EI/JM computer responds, "I cannot actually locate her, but based upon the Hyperspace coordinates that were logged before her jump and how long she's been travelling, I can give you a projected real-space location that may be within range of our remote control systems."

Static nods, "Do that, then, computer, and engage engines, maximum thrust for that location."

The gunslinger nods to TheRealMe, "Let's go get our wayward babes."

Static relaxes in his command chair, glad that Ebo is back, glad that things may return to norml soon...perhaps not the way he ideally would prefer, but at least the family will be together again soon...

most of them, at least.

The flight computer beeps softly at him.

"We've arrived at our projected waypoint. We should be able to engage remote control systems for the Admiral Nelson now."

Static sits up straight and acknowledges the computer, and gestures at TheRealMe, who leans over the comms console.

"Admiral Nelson, this is Sereni-Tree. Please respond."

TRM exchanges a glance with the Gunslinger, a questioning look on his face. The Gunslinger keys the transmitter from his station.

"Nelson, this is the Tree. Please respond."

After a minute or two, Static sighs and shakes his head.

"Computer, engage remote control systems for the Admiral Nelson and begin docking protocol."

The Eddie/James computer responds, "Right, then. Working on it."

The Gunslinger turns to TRM, "Maybe we can get an answer or two now."

In the Common Room of the Sereni-Tree, TheRealMe clears his throat and holds his glass high.

“To SoulofSerenity, who sacrificed himself for the good of his friends!”

TheRealMe drains the glass in one gulp, then sets it down on a nearby table. He sighs heavily.

“I first met Soul on the ski resort planet of Black Diamond, during the time a group of us was trying to recapture the dangerous FemaleReaver. Soul appeared out of nowhere in the mountains of the icy north to offer his aid to our small band. He was so helpful and of such impeccable character that I later made him the Sereni-Tree’s Security Chief.”

TheRealMe pauses, and frowns.

“Of course, he was intimately connected with the time of troubles surrounding the Dark Soul, but even then, it was clear that he…”

TheRealMe stops after noticing something strange. Puzzled, he walks over to the bar, next to which stand TWO Cozens. TheRealMe glances back and forth between them, while they both grin at him. Suddenly, TheRealMe smacks one of the Cozens, and it dissolves into dust.

The real Cozen is surprised. “How? How did you know HE was the clone?”

TheRealMe shrugs. “The Cozen-clone was prettier.”

*It's been a couple weeks since Soul's death. Serenity has spent most of that time in her room, only coming out when absolutely necessary and barely talking to anyone.*

*Now, it's late at night, most of the crew is sound asleep.*

*Serenity emerges from her room and creeps downstairs. She heads into the kitchen.*

*She is STARVING, having hardly eaten anything since, well, she doesn't like to think about it. But now she's hungry. She finds a bag of chips and munches those while she raids the fridge. She pulls out pie, sandwiches, a hunk of cheese, pickles. She pops her head in the freezer and finds a tub of chocolate ice cream. She grabs a big spoon and digs into that, adding whipped cream and m&Ms right to the container.*

*Dale the ferret wanders in. She picks him up and sets him on the table and feeds him the greens from the celery she dips in her peanut butter. *

*Finally, sated, she finishes off the last of her glass of milk, puts her head down on the table, and falls asleep, leaving the remains of the ice cream to melt on the counter.*

*PR is snoozing in the tent he has since pitched in the observatory lounge, where he now keeps most of his stuff.*

"We'll take care of each other. I'll knit!"
"I swallowed a bug."

SAFEAT2ND


Safe and Jack sit and wait while a crowd of people mill in and out of Destiny's Shadow.

Jack abruptly stops drumming his fingers and slams his fist down on his knee. "I've had enough gorram waitin', Safe! Can't you just fly this ship outta here NOW??"

"Jack, it ain't my ship and I can do nothing to hurry this up. Our business will just have to wait."

A gleam of an idea lights up Jacks eyes. "Why don't we just "borrow" a shuttle? We can be to Boros and back before this circus finally becomes organized. No one will be the wiser..."

Safeat2nd, Chief Handyman of Destiny

STATIC


On the bridge, Static watches his consoles intently as the TREE slowly pulls the Admiral Nelson into the docking bay. Static notices with a frown that there's no activity visible at all through the viewports. Without a word, he exits the cockpit and makes his way down to the docking bay.

Why do I have the feeling she's going to turn into a butterfly?

Either that or she's preggers.

Needleseye finding no interest in sleep, follows the scents in the air, chocolate? She walks into the silent kitchen and takes a seat at the counter across from Serenity as she snoozes. A round bellied ferret is nuzzled about and under her arm. Needleseye looks to one side of the room and then the other. She watches Serenity who rests peacefully after an ice cream binge.
hmm.
She spies a can of whip cream,
shakes it vigorously...
glances about the room again...

then squirts a huge blob in her mouth puffing out her cheeks. Mmm! she giggles to herself, and sets down the can then resumes her usual calm countenance. She tilts her head toward Serenity, closes her eyes and begins to hum faintly for a while.

After there is nothing but the sound of the SereniTree's engines own comforting hum against the quiet of the surroundings.
The kitchen lights begin to dim from the stillness.

i had true love
i made it die
i pushed her away
she said please stay
burning every bridge that i cross
to find some beautiful place to get lost
