              It is 20:00 hours, the repair teams are wearing out, must have been that last assignment. I wish i could be humane and at least give them a break, but how could i, they love engineering sooooo much, it would pain me to send them to a break, away from their tool kits, i'll give them 6 more hours then perhaps they could receive a break.

 

       

 

             ::noises of tool scraping the alloy of the panels::

 

             Poor P'tain....she probably believe that i am dead...comming back on a ship and docked at a station is pretty descret, i wonder how many family members of the manticore crew is worrying right now, of course i would if i were them.

 

            ::Dozes of to daydream::

     

             Tovan sees his imaginary world, a m class planet untouched by civilization, the wild life was incredible, almost like the animals do no know fear, no dominance in the calm breeze of the summer winds. Birds as small as a penny flew in flocks, t'almos Tovan called them.

             There He was, in this magical place, no one but him stood in the breeze. Before him were packs of teethless animals fighting eachother playfully, the fish in the stream flopped up and down efforlessly, the hawks sored above the clear sky.

             And there it was, his old home, his brother's home on earth, but ofcourse it was not earth. Still its beauty stands out with striking colours of red and green, Derok's favourite colours. Tovan ran down hill with all his might, and suddently he felt emotions, the deep barriers of supression were gone. He felt joy, he felt young again.

            Arriving apon the house, he flew open the door, he felt joy rushing through him as he walked in to the house, everything, and i mean everything, were as exactly as they were when the last time he visited.

            The smell of vulcan flan in the kitchen, but the house was quiet, every thing was quiet.

            Tovan looked out of the window, the animals stared at the flaring point in the sky, its orange flames frightened the hawks, Tovan stared as the bright thing came down. In one loud explosion the orange object bites the ground.

            He was curious, and fasinated by the object, he thought about what might have been, a meteor, a debrie of a astroid, or just space junk.

            He ran towards the burning flames, again filled with joy as if he was a child again. Closer and closer Tovan came to the wreckage, and he found him self in familiar territory...the wreckage was a standard runabout, its regestry number was the same as Derok's shuttle, around the wreckage was 2 bodies, Tovan stared at them. "human" he said, with fear in his voice.

            He took a look inside the shuttle and saw his brother, burning, bleeding with another, the boilan. Tovan jumped back and looked away, tears begin to form in his eyes, then -

     

       ::commbage chirps, and Tovan wakes up in shock::

 

            It was his chief Commander Garnoopy, mister garnoopy had told him about slacking in some of the repair crews, and he wants them back to work.

           

            "aye sir" he said with out those same fear emotions, his emotions were once again suppressed.

 

            "daydreams are rare" said Tovan as he climbed out of the tube and heads for the turbolift. Clearing his thoughts as he walked.
