Episode 119 - "Shattered Mirror"
Location: SB400
Timeline: Current
The mirror Jim had come back to Starbase 400 to warn Deela. Her husband's doppelganger was still seeking vengeance. It wasn't enough that he tortured Jack but now he was coming after her and her family. Fortunately, Brandon was gone and Jack didn't use his real name when he checked into that place.
Deela contacted Brandon, warning him. She then let Alex know so she could protect Raivyn. Jim could see a look in her eyes that he knew all too well, "You're going to the mirror universe, aren't you?"
"Yes, and you are coming with me." Deela was tired of this guy and wanted to end it.
"What do you think you are going to do when you get there? Kill him?" Jim knew that she wasn't a killer.
"I don't know yet. I'll know when I get there." Deela didn't have a plan. She just wanted this whole thing to end.
"How are you going to get there without anyone noticing you're gone? You're the XO for God's sake." Jim wondered.
"I don't know yet. But when I figure it out, I'll let you know." She thought for a moment, "I don't think anyone would blame me if I asked for a leave of absence. My husband is in a mental institution and Brandon is at the academy. With all that happening, I'm sure I can get away. Just be ready to get me there."
"I hope you know what you are doing. People can be vicious there." He warned her.
"I know. So can I." Deela assured him.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to make the first move."
Deela nodded, "I've made arrangements for you to stay docked on Starbase 400 until then."
"Thank you."
Deela smiled at him, "Hungry?"
"Of course. Dinner? You and me?"
"It's just dinner. Don't get any ideas. I AM still married." She was just joking of course.
"Okay then. One hour and I'll meet you in the promenade."
