The officers stood at attention in what was left of the forward torpedoed bay. The sound of Amazing Grace echoed through the corridors nearby Michael was standing at the foot of the track where Alex’s casket was. The music was softened until it was almost unnoticeable. Michael cleared his throat, he was still in a lot of pain over his brothers death. “We are gathered here today… to mourn the loss of a Starfleet officer. Commander Alex Callister as he was listed in the crew list. However he will be listed dead under his real name. Commander Alexander Templar Jade. People knew him as my first officer, a friend, a family member and a… and a brother” He paused for a moment to wipe the tears from his eyes with his hand before resuming. “it is unfortunate that this had to happen, but thanks to Alex’s bravery some of us are still here today… myself included, it is because of him that the Aeon is still here. It is with regret that we send him to his final resting place…” Michael stopped again and gave a motion with his hand. The casket started to move down the track as the sound of Amazing Grace started playing again. The sound of the torpedo Firing marked that the casket had been ejected from the ship and was propelling away to an uncertain resting location. Back in the room he had to lean against the rail to prevent himself from losing his balance. “…dis… dismissed.” The officers who were there left in an orderly fashion deciding it was best to give Michael the time he wanted alone. “It should have been in there… not him.” |

Duina had been close to Michael while he spoke. She herself couldn't stop the tears from falling. The emotion was strong in the room so even if she didn't wish to show her own emotions, it was hard to do so. After he had dismissed everyone, Duina stayed behind. She looked at Michael. She walked over to him before gingerly touching his cheek. "Michael...There was nothing you could have done...He did that of his own will..." She had heard what Alex had done but not the reasons behind it. Her words were soft and gentle as she just watched him. Trying to make him feel a little better was not going to be easy for her. |

Michael looked at the tracks for the torpedo bay. he knew losing Alex wasn't his fault but that didn't make the situation any diffrent. Michael turned around and started for the door. "We'll be at earth in another hour. I'm going to go sleep. or try to." With that he started to walk out the door. wondering if she was going to say something or stop him. |

Duina wasn't sure what she was supposed to do. She swallowed so as she watched him start walking off. "Michael...." She said loud enough so that he would hear. "Just remember...I love you." She just watched him with a sincere look upon her face. She wouldn't try to stop him because she knew the pain he was going through simply by feeling it. She just watched him leave even if he said anything back to her or not before sighing softly and looking at the torperdo Bay. "Rest in Peace, Alex." She whispered as she closed her eyes and prayed where she was standing. She didn't pray to anyone really, just...prayed. |

Michael stepped out into the corridor. the door closing swiftly behind him he started to walk down a corridor, he passed several officers before stopping in front of a wall console. he looked at it for a few minutes before putting his fist into it repeatedly. "Dammit... fucking... hell... of all the stupid things you could have done... why that?!" He was almost yelling as the blood dripped down his hand and onto the floor below him. His face was tearing as he then dropped to the floor and sat against the wall. |

Duina's head came up from her prayer as she blinked some. She shook her head some before she had a feeling something wasn't right. Moving out of the room, she moved quickly down the hallway. "Michael!" She yelled some as she ran over to him. She dropped down to his side before looking at his hand. "Lets get this fixed uup, alright?" She went to touch his cheek softly, a worried expression on her face. |

Michael looked up at her and shook his head. Suddenly the ships intercom turned on. "Captain Jade to the bridge." Michael stood up and started walking towards the direction of the turbo lift, his hand clenched as another trickle of blood fell off it. "my hand can wait." His head was lowered as he was walking, he wasn't looking forward to this new world. |

Duina blinked some before grabbing him and found the intercom button. "This is Duina, Michael will be there soon. At the moment he is busy." She sounded serious before she let go of the button and looked at him. "We are going to get that hand check out now. Understood." She stilled looked at him with a soft expression but one that was also serious as well. |

"our ships doctor is dead. I'll live I can get it fixed up once we're back on earth but right now I'd just rather be on the bridge or rather whats left of it." Michael continued to walk towards the turbo lift. He knew that for the most part Sick bay was destroyed and the ships doctor had gone with it. there were med kits throughout the ships main locations due to the situation, though he knew there was one on the bridge. He didn't plan on saying that though. "besides, it's hardly life threatening." |

Duina looked down before inhaling some. "Fine." She looked up at him. "Good day then. CAPTAIN Michael." She turned on her heel rather quickly before walking off. She was fighting back tears but if he wished to act like that and not notice that she was trying to help him the only way she could then fine. She didn't know what else she coudl do for him at the moment as she just walked off. |

Michael closed his eyes as she spoke to him. He listened to her turn and walk away before continuing to the turbo lift. He got in it and gave the order only to be on the bridge moments later. He stepped out to see a few crew personal doing their work. a few glanced over to him and gave a nod of acknowledgment to his arrival, a few looked at his hand which was almost covered in blood. "Sir Star fleet has given us permission to Dock. They say welcome back Captain." Michael walked over to the middle of the bridge. "Proceed, helmsman, quarter impulse, nice and slow." |

Duina had just walked before falling to the ground when she was alone. She inhaled some before closing her eyes as she tried to clear her thoughts. She was feeling so many things she just wanted it to stop. She closed her eyes tighter as the emotions soon stopped. She even blocked out Michael as she finally sat there in peace. She had achevied the one thing she never thought she would. Her own place to think. She closed her eyes as she sat in the middle of this empty corridor. Losing herself in memories that she enjoyed instead of the ones that hurt. |

Michael stood there for a moment before walking into his ready room, which was more or less destroyed. He turned his chair upright and sat down at what was left of his desk, putting his feet up he leaned back and closed his eyes. he Fumbled for a second before hitting a button that would lock the doors to the room. He was soon fast asleep. He was trying not to care at the moment about anything. It wasn't long before he had fallen asleep. Meanwhile in a few hours the ship had docked at the space dock and was taking on emergency and full time repair crews, while the original crew was slowly making their way off and being escorted to an area. At the docking entrance to the ship a single man stood, an elderly man but he stood there none the less waiting for two specific people to come off the ship and he'd be sure to stop them both. |

When the ship actually docked, it kicked her out of her peaceful place. Looking around, she stood up before slowly making her way when she saw other people moving. 'We must be here already...' She thought to herself at first. 'I wonder if Michael is already there or not...Oh well...' She slowly made her way off the ship and looked around before going to head off somewhere. She didn't really know where she was going. She was going to follow Michael but apparently that just wasn't going to happen. She swallowed some as she looked around. Then closed her eyes before inhaling and walking off, just...walking. |

The elderly man saw someone he recognized and approached her. "I had to see it to believe it myself... Duina? it's me, Marcus Rains." The man smiled at her as he took another step towards her. His Cane held him up. Meanwhile repair crews had boarded the ship and were doing assessments of the ship unaware that Michael was still in his room, sitting there waiting. |
