John walked over to the man and smiled. Medical anomalies din't really bother him anymore considering he had first hand knowedge of some of the alliances practices. "Hi, I'm John and this is Serenity. That's Simon over there and he can get you all stiched up if you let him. Do you have any idea how you came to be on this ship? A name? Anything?" John hesitated in reading his emotions, afraid of what he would find.

Isahiah raised a dubious eyebrow. "On second thought, I'll take that back. 'Seems I might not be the man you wanna talk to after all," he said. "Your doctor friend here says I was alone drifting in space and right on the verge of kicking it when you guys turned up and mercifully reeled me in. He was unclear as to why I have no recollection of this taking place. He also neglected to mention why I woke up finding my limbs are strapped to an infirmary bed. Now, I don't mean to be giving you guys a hard time here, and if you did bail me out of that damnable escape pod, then trust me, I am grateful. I'd just like for someone to let me know what the score is."
A certain measure of eagerness had crept up in his voice as he had spoken, each added word being uttered with increased conviction and desperation, and he was now staring intently at his hosts.
A look of annoyance came upon the doctor's face. "Fine,"he said. "The captain asked that you'd be secured seeing that the first time you woke up, you went berserk and threatened, among other things, to break my neck."
"Oh..." Isahiah started, visibly dumbfounded. He had come to doubt that this stolid face actually had the ability to emote.
"Any further questions?" the doctor asked on a deadpan tone.
Isahiah unwound and chuckled. "No. No, that'll be all," he said. "You know, if it's any consolation, I'm glad I didn't actually break your neck. Really." The doctor simply cast his inscrutable gaze on him as a mean of reply. Isahiah turned to John again. "Name's Isahiah Nazarov. I'm a contractor of sorts. Pleasure meeting ya, John. I'd shake hands, but..."

"I understand. Simon, I think we should let him out. I dopn't think he means trouble. And if he does go crazy again I'm armed."
"I don't know the captain..."
"Don't for a second pretend that anything the captain says has any weight on your decision ever." John took the restraints off the man so that he's be more comfortable. "Do you know where you were headed?"
------------------------------------------------
Simon was confused. First John had gone missing and now here he was calm as ever and taking over the situation. He seemed almost too nice. Simon remained wary as John continued his conversation.

Isahiah heaved a sigh of relief as John unbuckled the straps fastened around his wrist. "Thank you very much, friend. I figured you were the compassionate sort," he said. It wasn't long before he was eventually able to move into a sitting position.
"Hmph... Mei young ma duh tse gu young, I'm sore in places I wasn't even aware existed!" he said while making a strenuous effort to stretch his arms out to their full length. "'Guess I got you to thank for the fact that I'm able to ramble around at all, right Doc?"

Isahiah was now meticulously kneading the tired flesh of his left foot, which seemed to bring him great contentment. "Now there's a touchy question," he replied, his gaze never swerving from his sore trotter. "You see, I believe a man ought to set out rules for himself to abide by for his life to have any personal significance in this frightfully significance deprived universe, and one of mine happens to be... well it goes some'in like this: Under no circumstances shall you ever spill the beans on company matters. I said it before, I'm happy I'm still alive, and I know who I gotta thank for that, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna go and flout my credo on your account, 'cause not only would that be a crime against my business, it'd be a crime against myself as well."

Pain's Bunk
The kissing had reminded him of their time at Paint Tag and the time 13 entered his bunk and threw him off of her. That kissing was of the hot and heavy variety as opposed to the slow, passionate kisses from the previous three times they made love, as well as when they kissed in the cargo bay. Something that 13 had said earlier rang inside his head.
Quote:
"She's two different peas in the same pod."
Pain thought that over and wanted to tell the sleeping beauty next to him about it, but he could feel his eyelids getting heavy. With a yawn, Pain put it in the back of his mind to tell her later and nuzzled her neck, giving it a kiss before closing his eyes and falling asleep.

She startled awake, but managed not to wake Pain. It hadn't been real long since she had fallen asleep. She hadn't meant to, but she did. The recollection of her and Pain's recent interlude came to her. She hadn't been in charge. Tommy had been.
"Tommy?" she whispered.
"Yes?" a voice answered, also hushed.
Tommy sounded different. She sounded almost... relaxed.
"Are we OK?"
"Definitely."
"And you thought we weren't ready."
"I can be wrong sometimes."
"It's possible," Ivy whispered as she giggled just a little.
"Now go back to sleep. Dinner's gonna be soon. We haven't had much rest."
Ivy giggled a little again, wriggled a little to get closer to Pain and closed her eyes.
Pain had been asleep an even shorter period of time, so he hadn't fell into a deep sleep cycle yet. Through the haze, he thought he heard voices. Then a quiet laugh. Who could be talking? He finally came close enough to wakefulness to open his eyes. He looked down at Ivy's face. She was asleep, but a faint smile was on her lips.
Who was talking? He looked around the room and saw no one. Pain shook the thought out of his head and drifted back into slumber.

Pain's Bunk
A nagging thought brought Pain out of his sleep. He brought his lips to Ivy's ear and rubbed her stomach. She moaned and squirmed a little as he did so. Bringing his lips closer to to her ear, Pain asked her, "Where is Ivy right now?"
Tommy whispered half asleep with her eyes still closed, "She's busy at the moment. Can I take a message?"
Pain whispered back, "Sure thing. Tell her that I know, will you?"

The question registered in her half asleep mind. Suddenly, he eyes snapped open and she tried to put some distance from Pain, but he held her tight.
"Let go of her," she growled, struggling a bit.
"I'm not gonna hurt you," Pain reassured her. "Neither of you."
"What do you mean neither?" Tommy tried to convince him. "There is no neither. You must be sleep deprived to come to this conclusion."
"I'm right," he said in a soothing voice. "You just confirmed it. You said to 'Let go of her'."
She stopped struggling and her posture softened. Ivy had come forward again. Tommy couldn't protect her against this revelation. What was done was done.
"No. You're wrong," Ivy tried to convince him again, but her voice wavered, betraying her.
"You know I'm not," Pain said softly as he loosened his grip on her, resuming a tender embrace.
He felt a tear fall onto his arm and she shuddered just a bit.
"Do you want me to leave? I'd understand it if you would," Ivy said as more tears fell. "I should probably start packing my things too. The captain will throw me off the ship for sure now."

"I can understand that," John said. "But hw can we get you where you need to be if you won't tell us. Hoping for answers, John began to probe his mind, just the outside, looking for flashes of emotion

"That ain't goin' to happen, darlin', cause I won't let it. If'n the Captain tries that go-se, he'll have to go through me first." replied Pain, turning Ivy to face him. Wiping the tears from her cheeks, he continued, "As for you packin' your things and leavin', that ain't happenin' either. The only things you'll be packin' are your bags of clothes, cause you'll be movin' them in here."
He touched a finger to her lips and said, "Now before you have your say, let me speak my peace." Pain looked into her eyes and continued, "I've always wanted to be with two women at once. I just never thought those two women would be sharin' the same body. What I'm sayin' is that I like both you and Tommy a lot. I enjoy the kissin', the touchin', and the time spent together. In fact I'm lookin' forward to a second date. Perhaps we could go on a picnic somewhere out in the open. You, me, a blanket, and a basket of food." A smile crossed his lips as he added, "You can even bring Tommy along."
He wiped another tear from her cheeks and continued, "If'n that don't tickle your cute little fancy, we could always go for Paint Tag again. I am kind of lookin' for a rematch."
He gave her another warm smile, then let it fade as he talked some more, "Seriously though, baobei, I ain't goin' to tell the captain or 13 about this. I know there's a story behind it and I ain't goin' to ask for it now. I'm sure you'll give it to me once you get up the courage to do so. For the here and now though, lets just catch up on the remainder of our nap. Chow time's in a few hours anyways and we could use the sleep. Perhaps after we've finished eatin' we can have some after dinner fun." He ran a hand through her hair and asked, "So what do you say?"
