“Then stop giving advice that sounds like you are,” she said softly without any seriousness. Then she looked torn. “Sisnil, I don’t want to leave you alone,” wow that was a loaded statement. “But I think I’m ready to call it a day.” It had started so well, but then it all went sideways. Now, now, after spending time with Sisnil, she was relaxed and tired.

Sisnil patted her gently on the back. “Then go to bed. I’ll use your fancy sleep maker and get some sleep myself. Okay?”

She flushed and wasn’t sure why. “Okay.” She stood up and waited awkwardly for a moment. She was a big girl she could walk by herself. “Good night, Sisnil.” She left the lounge and went straight back to her quarters. She hurried, afraid of another surprise encounter. She stopped around the bend from her quarters and watched a moment, to make sure no one was waiting for her. She told herself she was being ridiculous, she was safe, but she waited anyway. Then she hurried into her quarters and locked the door.

Sisnil headed up a few moments later. He told Dradvia he’d sleep, but.... Instead he took a long shower, dressed in something comfortable but functional (something he could sleep in, but was prepared if something happened), and sat down at the desk in the space to work. It was past midnight when he lay down to try to sleep.

Dradvia had changed into long cotton pajama pants and a short sleeve t-shirt. She crawled into her bed and closed her eyes. Sleep was slow to arrive, despite her exhaustion. Her mind played over every detail that had happened to her again.
As she dosed off her reflection of the day, turned into flashes of made up memories. She was on a ship on the holodeck, except it was real. Sisnil was there. Two of him… Sisnil introduced her to Noril and Vash. She was nervous and clung to Sisnil’s arm. He put his arm around her, pulling her close. Dradvia leaned against him, warm and safe. In love with him. “I told you, Dee, I couldn’t come back without you. I want you here.” Sisnil held her hand as she followed him through the ship. They were going to have a life together. She was going to have Sisnil and a family.
She was yanked back suddenly. So forcefully her arm popped out of socket. She cried out as she was tugged like a rope between them. Sisnil was suddenly larger than life. “Let her go Stevens. There is no Star Fleet to protect you now.”
“I can’t do that Zoi. She is a runaway. My* runaway. You will be rewarded handsomely for her return.” Dradvia looked up, confused. It wasn’t Stevens. It was Lokhar, back from the dead. Lokhar sneered at her, tugging her back by her hair. “I’m so glad to have you back Dradvia. I will enjoy reminding you how you should behave.”
“SISNIL! SISNIL HELP. HELP ME!” She tried to scream but it wouldn’t come out. No matter how hard she tried, she remained silent. He was saying something, but she couldn’t hear him as Lokhar dragged her away. The last thing she saw was Sisnil standing beside Noril and Vash, being welcomed home. The hatch closed, and the pain started immediately.
She screamed and screamed and screamed.
