Imperial fleet slowly decelerated then once more changed course and took up the chase, after<br />
what was left of the Bak'ra, speeding towards Earth.<br />
--------------<br />
We hurt them, Emie.<br />
There was no way that they could leave their ship selves while still chasing the Bak'ra, but Julie<br />
really wished she could hold the taller woman right now.<br />
I know, hon, I wish I could hold you too.<br />
Earth ready for them?<br />
Maybe, Julie, but even if we did hurt them, we didn't stop them.<br />
Emie, we destroyed hundreds of ships!<br />
Julie, they have the ships to spare, we don't.<br />
The redhead sighed and snuggled a bit deeper into her ready room bed.<br />
Will Earth hold until we can reach them?<br />
They have about an hour lead on us now, love. We'll just have to hope that the orbital forts do<br />
their job. Once we get closer, we can try to warp gate to catch up a bit, but for now we'll just<br />
trail them and do what repairs we can.<br />
Julie smiled as the feeling of love and warmth spread through the link between the two<br />
Guardians.<br />
Any word from Katya yet, Emie?<br />
Sorry, Julie, the last I heard they were going to be touching down on Mars the same time as the<br />
Bak'ra land assault force. We've done the best we can for them. We have to worry about Earth<br />
now.<br />
Julie could feel her love's fear and worry about her father and brother who were on Mars. She<br />
said a quick prayer for them all, hoping that they would survive what was coming towards them.<br />
The sensation of phantom lips brushing against hers brought a small moan of pleasure.<br />
I need you.<br />
A sense of longing so powerful it nearly hurt filled the link.
