A River and Jayne Adventure w/ a little Romance
Set approxomately 1 year after Objects In Space.
Ok, this is the very first Firefly fanfic I ever wrote. Took me a long time to decide to post it but jebbypal read it at my site and seems to think I should, so here it is. It's a little glimpse at what River might become and how a River and Jayne romance might start. A little more action, less romance then my other stories. I do want to note that this one did directly inspire me to write Ballad Of Jayne, that one was origianlly meant to explore a mysterious package that River forsee's Jayne giving to her in this one. But it ended up not being the continuation of this one that I envisioned.

River knew it was time to leave.
She slowly pressed up against the door to listen for anyone near. Sensing nothing in the cold, white corridor she triggered the latch and let the door whoosh open.
Now to find him and get him safely out before it decided he was no longer fun to play with.
Jayne.... her Jayne, though he didn't get that yet. Most of him still thought of her as crazy River, childlike and slightly creepifying. But even so he had tried to stop them from taking her, had killed for her. One of the corpses left behind was a Blue Hand, part of one set now detached from the other, the other who had been torturing Jayne for days, trying to find a release for it's pain and delirium in Jayne's cut and twisted body.
It was oddly comforting to know they could be killed, made them seem almost "human" to her, less the stuff of soul wracking nightmares.
It was oddly terrifying watching the madness creep into the one that lived, feeling whatever was left of it's soul pouring out like blood.
She sensed that
This was great! Why didn't you post it before, girl! Shame on you. This was a job well done for your first fic. Jayne is Jayne, damn you write a good Jayne. I loved the action bits w/ River! Great Job!
I was playing with the idea that since the Blue Hands always went in pairs, they were bonded. I was also working with the thought that they were prototypes from the program River was in.
Never thought of Jayne and River putting on the blue gloves but, I was thinking their bonding was along the same lines as the Blue Hands. In a less horrifying way, of course. :-)
