(Takes place after “Captain, May I?”)

She was finished with the Captain and had gone back to her quarters and thought long and hard about what she had confided. She knew the crystalline orb was gone. They had searched for it. A couple weeks after they had come back from the injuries they had sustained, she had convinced him to go back once more. They didn’t go in as deep, for obvious reasons, but close enough that had even a small shard of the thing survived the explosion, they would have found it.

A few moments later, she was sitting at her desk with her comm turned on. Her hair was pulled up in a loose knot she often wore when working on a particularly difficult puzzle. Her top was a sweatshirt style pull over with sleeves almost completely cut off. It occurred to her, he was the only one who had seen her in more than just her uniform… well, till Tenkiller had a couple days ago. She was looking at the screen as it rang thru to the Wolverine. It was where her closest friend, and mentor, had disappeared to. She waited for Duncan to respond and wondered what she was doing, letting so many others in on her hunch of what had occurred to make Romulus explode.
