Captain Malcolm Reynolds sat alone at the little bar that sat at the edge of the town. He had needed to get away from all the craziness of the day passed. Coming home so Kaylee could see her parents wasn’t as big a deal as she had made it out to be. Luckily Inara was able to find some respectable clients for herself here as well. Everyone was making out pretty damn lucky, that was until the heart attack. Kaylee’s father wasn’t the healthiest man Mal had ever seen and his little scare sure showed that to everyone.

Thankfully Simon was able to go to work quickly and save the man, which would only increase that crush Kaylee had for him. It was a nice thing though, Mal thought to himself, to be able to bring Kaylee back home for a spell. Mal remembered back to when she came on board, by coincidence really, but still she had earned more than his respect. What good was a ship without someone to make it run?

Mal took another sip from his drink as he noticed someone sit next to him. He didn’t really give it any thought nor any look, as the case was. Unfortunately, being alone wasn’t something Mal was going to be lucky
