Mission: Romulan Ale.. I mean Aide
Location: Quarters

Alexia was finally back home which meant she was safe but the ordeal down on the planet was more than she was expecting. Her training was talking not running and hiding for your life. Sleep wasn't coming to her and with all the craziness with the Star Fleet ship attacking the Vindicator and than the Warbird doing the same and now another one that destroyed the first one Lexi was thoroughly confused and just a wreak she needed her friend more than ever.

As if on cue the chime on Alexia's door went off.

"Enter!" Alexi said absent mindedly she wasn't shaking anymore. But she couldn't sit still, your stomach was in knots and she kept half expecting someone to pop out of nowhere.

Emilia slipped inside before the doors were even fully open and looked around for Alexia, a concerned look on her face.

She had of course known that Alexia was stuck on the planet but had thought she'd be well taken care of in the presence of the Captain. The sense she was getting from her now though was worrisome.

Alexi was pacing in the living room in a simple light weigh black cotton pajama bottoms and a white cotton shirt. She was biting her nails and she didn't even realized that she allowed someone into her quarters.

Emilia shook her head for a moment and intercepted Alexia, grabbing her hands away from her teeth, "Hey, Lexi. It's ok.. just relax.."

"Hey......hey." Lexi said again eyes not focusing on hers they were almost glazed over as her memory replayed everything that happened on the planet and in the caves but the lovely Wisp decided to add something the what if's .

Em decided there needed to be some drastic action to snap her out of this. So without hesitation she began to poke Lexi, with two fingers, relentlessly until she did something to stop her, "hey. hey. hey..."

It worked just long enough for Lexi to snap out of whatever trance she was in. But because suddenness of the break she was unaware of what was going on. So instead of just stopping and looking around she threw a punch in the direction of the poking.

Emilia just saw it coming and threw her arms up over her head as it connected. She lost her balance in all the surprise and tumbled down, "AH! The hell?"

"Wha....shi....Em.....when did you get here." Lexi said dropping to a knee to see if her friend was hurt.

"Like five minutes ago while you were all zoned out and pacing." she rubs her butt which is the only part actually hurting any.

"Wha.....what are you talking about I didn't let anyone enter my quarters?" Lexi said looking at Em, "and are you sure your okay?"

Em got herself up, "You said to come in."

Shaking her head, "Em I swear to you I didn't say that.....in fact I don't remember the last five minuets."

Emilia sighed and nudges Lexi toward the couch to sit down, "Alright.. well your body was wandering around while your brain was out then."

Lexi nodded as she followed Em to the couch. "I remember going down to the colony.....speaking with the governor and than hiding......finding a cave and than that's where things get fuzzy........like I've been shown several possible futures and I can't which one is which in my mind." Lexi said almost in tears.

"Well, you found some Romulan rebels.. they blew up the generator and you guys beamed back." Emilia said, recounting what she had read from the quick post action report, "And now you are in your quarters, with me.. and everything is back to normal. Right?"

"I remember the planet and the caves........but than I can't remember how everything wrapped up. My mind has been given too many endings I can't keep them all straight." Lexi said.

Emilia tugged a little on Lexi's ear, "Hey! You want to know what happened.. you can read the report. Time to think about something else. Like pizza.. or cats... or little brunettes on your couch."

Lexi just nodded rubbing her head. "Pizza sounds good.....but do you mind if we had to the lounge I need to be around other people without interacting with them."

"Alright.. we can do that." Em said as she stood up, "Let's go get pizza!"

Lexi smiled stood up and followed her friend out of her quarters which be good for her.
