Jack took Kate to a small, but comfortable den in a remote corner of the Arctic, far from any kind of island or civilization. He laid her down gently in a small nest made of moss and little bits of feathers and fur. She looked small and fragile as she lay on her side, Jack noticed, he wondered how much more this war was hurting her then she let show. Of course he knew that if he ever brought it up with her, she'd probably claw his tongue out for mentioning it. He chuckled slightly, picturing it in his head.
Deeply unconcious, Kate was dreaming, images of her former life flashing before her eyes like an old fashioned movie. Startled, Kate wondered if she had died. Only vaguely could she remember a face bending over her as she lay on the stone floor, her life slowly draining out as the venom creeped inside. Yet, despite the situation, she remembered the face as he bent over her. She could trace the familiar lines on his face in her mind, creased with worry and regret. And in that instant, right then, she had forgiven him for everything that she held against him.
Kate slowly blinked her eyes open, looking around the small den, puzzeled. Where am I? She wondered, flexing each limp seperately to make sure nothing was broken. After her eyes had adjusted to the lack of light in the den, she tried to sit up, but nearly fell over when a sharp blast of pain ripped through her skull. Gritting her teeth together, Kate hauled herself into a sitting position, ignoring the fact that her head felt like it was splitting in two.
"Hey, hey, hey" A voice called from the doorway, causing Kate's head to snap around and another sharp burst of pain made her wince.
"Jack?" She mumbled, tilting her head to the side.
"Uh, yeah" He replied, shifting his legs awkwardly.
Kate placed a paw to her head as the word tilting around her, threatening to throw her back into unconciousness as she tried to think.
"Easy..." He murmured, placing a paw on her shoulder to steady her "You hit your head pretty badly... or should I say, Lark did."
Suddenly, it all came flooding back at once. The mission, Lark, the fight, the venom... then Jack. Kate's vision blurred around the edges and she crumpled into blackness as her mind gave up trying to sort through it all.
"Hopefully we will reach them with no turbulence"
