John was running around, searching high and low for Rygel. They had a specific meeting place, but Rygel wasn’t there. He started to feel nervous. What if Rygel had already gone to the pod? What if he ended up getting caught?
As if someone had heard his question, John had been grabbed from behind. And it could be only one person.
“Scorpy” John managed to get out while being strangled.
“Hello, John” he said in his usual evil villain-type voice. “I still don’t have all of the wormhole technology. I have been looking for you.”
“Yeah. You decided to go kidnap my friends.”
“Including Officer Sun. That surprised me most of all. I thought she was dead.”
“Yeah, but Zhann saved her.”
“And you only managed to get Aeryn out of here the first time, am I correct?”
“Yes, my friends were helping the others” he gasped but still looking angry.
“So, obviously she must mean a lot to you” he said with an evil smile.
“I do” said a familiar, angry voice from behind.
Aeryn punched Scorpius from behind and knocked him out. Aeryn grabbed John’s hand as they started running like crazy.
“What do you think you were doing?” Aeryn said shakily.
“Rygel said he’d be there. He lied. I’m gonna get him........”
“It was not the real Rygel. I got a signal from the pod from Rygel wondering ‘when the yotz we were coming’.”
John sighed as they finally reached the pod. When they reached the hanger, John left silently and went onto the terrace.
He sat down and looked at the stars. Then everything seemed to come back to him and, which he had not done so hard since Aeryn had died, started to cry. His head ached. He learned that Scorpy still was not satisfied. This was like the never-ending story. John didn’t know if he could stand this much longer. He heard footsteps behind them, and they could only belong to one person-Aeryn.
She came up to him and put her arms around him. “Shhh” she said softly, stroking his head.
He rested his head onto her shoulder. He stopped crying, but the pain in his head was still there. He couldn’t think of anything that could make him more happy then this.
After about half an arn, Aeryn took John over to his quarters. She laid him on the bed next to her and held him.
“Aeryn, he still doesn’t have all that he wants. I don’t know when this is gonna end.”
“He won’t get you. I’m here now, and he’s gone. We take what we get and we get what we take.
They turned to each other and kissed. They stayed together all through the night, and John finally slept well that night.
