>"What can I say? I had had enough of her and wanted her out of our<br>
>hair," He rubbed his bald head, "so to speak."<br>
Krysa laughed but she could tell by the Captain's mannerisms that he
was still only speaking half truths. And Zane knew she wasn't buying
it. "Well Krysa, I'm afraid you have a mystery on your hands. But
let me ask you this," He leaned forward with a strange look on his
face, "what do you think was going on around you?"
Krysa's brow wrinkled, "Well, I know she felt she had something over
you. Something that would help her get her way. I had assumed that
was because she could help me."
Zane nodded, "I was led to believe that if she didn't help you, your
life would be at risk."
"That's what I don't understand. And why I know there's more to it
then that." Krysa said frustrated. "She lied. She wasn't the only one
that could help. Dr. Glin'kharr would most likely have found the
problem at some point, and you wouldn't have needed to accept her
help."
"She was in your head, Krysa." Zane said emphatically, "There was no
telling what she might have done while we waited for the doctor to
try and figure out how she was getting there." He thought for a
minute before continuing. "She threatened you .. and me."
Krysa knew that he hadn't wanted to tell her that. "She threatened
you? How?" She was really confused now. There was a missing piece
here that he wasn't telling her.
"She wanted a safe way away from her enemies. That's all she wanted
and she was willing to use whatever means she had at her disposal."
Krysa nodded. "But what could she threaten you with?" She watched the
captain's face, but he still wasn't giving anything away. Though
there was something in his look .. There was still something he
wasn't telling her. She felt his concern and his fear. But she
wasn't sure what it was he was afraid of.
"I hope you don't mind me being so blunt about this, but I don't see
why you're keeping things from me. I mean, she's gone now, and
there's no way for her to get back into my head. She can't hurt me.
She can't hurt you. Not anymore. Not after everything else she's
done."
"I'd rather not talk about it." he said quietly. Krysa tried to get a
better feel for why he refused to talk to her about it, using her
empathic skills. She once again cursed the accident which had left
her with so little of her natural abilities. What was it he was
afraid of? As Zane raised his head and looked directly into Krysa's
eyes, her eyes widened.
As their eyes met, his feelings for her could no longer be hidden.
She was now able to see why Dee had effected him so much and the
power she had held over him. Neither of them able to break the gaze
that held them, Krysa was also able to see his anxiety that she'd
find out and his equally strong misery that she never would.
"Oh .." Krysa whispered. Her own emotions in turmoil. She'd come to
confront him on something she saw as an injustice only to be faced
with something she hadn't expected.
"Krysa, I .." he began.
Krysa was finally able to pull her eyes away and she stood quickly,
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pushed. I mean, you had your reasons ..
I should have respected that .."
Regards,<br>
Lt. Krysa Jenn<br>
