A Short Goodbye
Simon flashed into action, “Captain, Zoe, Book, help me move him! NOW!”
When Mal moved the others went into action, “On three everybody…one, two, three!”
“Sheesh he’s heavy,” Zoe groaned.
“To the table,” Simon shouted.
Wash came in and immediately took a place next to his wife, “I heard shots! God what happened!”
The group moved to the table and plopped Ian’s body down. “I need some room people,” Simon shouted, “Zoe I need you to help! Blood, in that locker there!”
Zoe moved quickly as Simon ripped the bloody shirt off of Ian. Kaylee took in a breath and turned away. Simon, with bloodied hands, stepped quickly sideways and turned on the 3D body imager. With his bare hands he examined the wound quickly as Zoe came with the blood. Simon appeared to slow down and quickly studied the three-dimensional image floating above Ian’s body.
“Please do something Simon,” Inara was crying wildly as Mal held her back, “please Simon!”
Simon suddenly stopped and looked at Zoe’s intense face, then he turned back to Mal, “Mal…he has no more heart…I mean…it’s shredded.”
“No,no Simon you can fix him,” Inara screamed, “I know you can Simon, please fix him!”
Simon looked at the deck of the ship where nearly all of Ian’s blood lay cooling in a large pool. He then looked at Malcolm, “There’s nothing I can do here Mal. He’s gone.”
Mal hung his head and Inara screamed, “NO! PLEASE SIMON! PLEASE DO SOMETHING!”
Wash moved to Zoe’s side and put his hand on her back. Book moved to the side of the bed, “Doctor may I?”
Simon looked at him with pity, “Yes of course Preacher.”
As Wash left the room for the bridge,Book took out a small glass vial of holy water and a small bottle of blessed oil. He made the sign of the cross on Ian’s forehead, “In nomino patre, et fili et spiritu sancti, amen,” Book began. Inara began to cry without stop and she nearly collapsed in Mal’s arms. Kaylee moved to her side and helped to hold her. Book continued with the rite, “We commend to you, O Lord! the soul of this your
I shouldn't complain about the space between your chapters. Lord knows how much time passes between my stuff.
But I am so glad that you spent a lot of time on this. This is one of the best series we have going on. Oddly enough, this is probably the most sci-fi thing of the fanfics. This is hard core Assimov, Heinlen and C. Clarke territory here, and it's a real breath of fresh air.
Keep it up. I'm eager to see how they get back to the civilized verse. Maybe they have a Stargate experience (of the 2001 kind and not the STARGATE kind), we can see who freaks out and who goes "Wheee, Hoooo!!!Far out, Man."
