Hello, this is Blake. I'm unavailable but if you'll leave a message, I'll return your call. If its an emergency, please feel free to message me via an alternative medium, I'll be quick to respond if I can!

Things never went as planned. It was a fact of life, in both a broad sense and particularly for those aboard the Liberator. Every time they had a plan set, ready to go, something would happen - Servalan, Travis, some other twisted member of the Federation an army of alien spaceships ready to invade, or a mix of them.

This particular time was something a bit more than Blake had bargained for. Certainly he should have expected things to go wrong, but he certainly hadn't expected what had come from it. They'd found Star One, and if they destroyed it, Blake would have single handedly (well, those on the Liberator - Avon. Vila, Jenna, Cally - ) taken down Terran Federation.

No one knew where Star One was located. No one but them.

...and, apparently, it seemed, Travis. 

but that was not the only problem. 

No, not at all. There was an alien horde about to attack mankind and the only thing stopping them was his ship and his crew.

And he'd been shot.  

there was nothing he could do in this state, so he did the only thing he could and he relinquished his power, so to speak, to the next most capable person.

Of course he couldn't relinquish completely. He trusted Avon. But he knew what Avon was like. So he made him promise - keep the alien invasion at bay until the Federation could come to take care of it. There was no other choice. 

As he'd suspected, and much to his relief, Avon had agreed.

Still, there seemed a strange shift in power once he had. Something inevitable was coming, though he didn't know what.

He held his bandaged side  as he returned once more to the medical unit of the Liberator, wincing as he did...though he found, in a strange surreal moment, suddenly it didn't hurt anymore. He paused.

Surely that made no sense at all. He'd just been shot. 

Then again, he'd just been aboard a space craft at the outer edge of the galaxy. This certainly looked planetside.

"What - ?"
