Lieutenant Joshua Garrity opened his pale blue eyes,
groaning softly when the brightness of the lights hit him once again. Why could
he never manage to wake somewhere dark and quiet? The numb feeling throughout
his body told him that they'd had to do the surgery after all and warned him of
the pain to come when it wore off.
Wonderful, the thought wryly. Something else to look forward
to.
He drew a slow, deep breath, gladdened to discover that at
least he could do that now. He moved his feet, first one then the other. Well,
tried to. The cybernetic limb was still. He tried again. Then again. Finally,
the replacement appendage moved as well. Good enough for now.
Hmm. What else could he do.
He looked about for the exits. One to his left. One to his
right. Orienting slowly, he called forth the schematics for the Avalon C he'd
memorized back on Izar. Had it all really been three years ago? He pushed that
aside,
unable to face that particular thought at the moment. Instead he focused on
where he was now, back with his shipmates, safely among the stars. Was there a
'nowhere' on this incarnation of
home. he wondered? He smiled softly at the thought of exploring her.
But first, he had to get out of here, and somehow he
suspected that just wasn't going to happen anytime soon.
