Number Seven //Book Three// - Dark Matter - COMPLETED

Wish I Could Believe You

Seven slowly opens her eyes in the medbay bed

She looks around and sees Five to her left, sitting in a chair and fiddling with some gadget

The Android had previously hooked up wired to the sides of Seven's head to get another brain scan before she woke up

Seven moves to sit up

"comment... allez-vous?" (How are you feeling?) Five asks, hesitating with the French slightly

"Je vais bien." (I'm doing okay) Seven answers her. "Votre français aussi" (So is your French)

Five smiles at the comment

"Merci" (Thanks) Five says

"Où est tout le monde?" (Where is everyone?" Seven asks

"Um..." Five says before looking to Android

Android picks up for her

"ils sont sur un navire ferrou corp pour sauver Six" (They are on a Ferrous Corp ship to rescue Six) Android tells her

"pourquoi est-il sur un navire corp ferreux?" (Why is he on a Ferrous Corp ship?)

"ils l'ont emmené" (They took him) Five explains simply

"The Marauder is back." Android announces

Five stands up

"Allons-y." (Let's go) Five says excitedly

Seven looks to Android who hands her the earbuds

She puts her earbuds in and French takes over

She takes Five's hand for help out of the bed before walking next to her to the doors. Android walks behind the girls

Two, Three, and Six walk in

"Hey." Three says as the group approaches

"Hey, Christmas." Six says, excited to see the two girls

Five and Seven hug him

They pull away but Six keeps a hand on Seven's shoulder, looking at her

"Can she...can she hear me?" Six asks

"We'll brief you on that later." Two says

"I thought you died on that planet." Five tells him

"Welcome back, Six." Android says

"Thanks." Six says

"You okay?" Five asks

Six looks around and then his eyes land on Three

"Hit me." Six says

"I'm sorry, what?" Three asks

"I just need to know--" Six starts before he's cut off by Three socking him in the face. "Ahh! You couldn't have waited till I was finished?"

"Feel real enough to you?" Three asks

"Yeah." Six says

"You should probably head over to the infirmary and have the Android look you over, check out that nose." Two tells him

Three smiles

"You asked." Three says with a shrug

Him and Six laugh

The crew walks down the hallway
