Carson Beckett/Paul McGillion Thunk Thread

[Dellruby]

-Oh, um, I saw a few things, how is your back Shep? And Poet her neck...I fear she is going to do something really silly, I hope she doesn't choose the wrong path. Thank you for looking after me Aang, there were so many others you could have helped, but you stayed with me. I'm grateful.

[Aang]

Beck: Oh...Poet's neck is fine...but she's done something silly indeed. She had nMichael kill her in some vampire ritual to make her stronger... *she looks over to Poet and then back to Dell*

Well it hurts...Aang, you know more than I do, really. How's my back?

*I look over at Shep*

Your back will be fine, it wasn't anything too bad...relatively speaking. *I raise an eyebrow at Dell*

*I smile at Dell, squeezing her hand gently* If I had to redo it, and I hope I never do, I'd do it the same, Sis. You needed me more than the others...I wouldn't have left you for anything. And I wasn't letting you leave us either. You're our big sister, you belong right here with Beck and I...and Shep.

*Joey gets up very slow, then walks over to his sister and carries her on his arms for her to see Dell's awake* shall she see you like this? end it Poet and come back to the living

*she nods slightly then closes her eyes and concentrates her energy on her heart, screaming out silently as it starts to work again, the wound in her chest burns for a few seconds and then is healed* I think I have to work on that *she smiles slightly as her skin regains color and her eyes turn back to normal* Now walk me over to Dell please

[Dellruby]

*I smile a sad smile*
If I wanted to, I could have left, but why would I want to leave my family, where would I go? there is nothing for me anywhere else anymore. *a tear slips out of my eye I reach out to Shep as best as I can, but we are to far apart.*
*he grunts as he sits and swings his legs out of bed and stands. he takes one step before his legs crumple and he is on his knees but now he can reach out and take my hand.*

[DarkenLycht]

Joey walks over to Dell holding his sister still* Welcome back Dell *he smiles at her gently* here is someone who wants to say welcome, too* he points to Poet*

[Aang]

*I smile at Dell, but my eyes twinkle a bit sadly, I turn away for a second and stand up, helping Shep to take my place in the chair without making him let go of Dell's hand*

*when I look back at Dell, the sadness is gone from my eyes, and I am smiling*

Well you will always have us here, you will always have a place with us.

[Dellruby]

-Hello Poet.....please don't choose the path that leads to death, lets both choose life. *smiles at her. Then I look back at Shep who is now in the chair.*
-You are stuck with me now, hope you can handle it.
It's all I've ever wanted. *he kisses my hand and holds it tightly*

-I'm tired, jet lag I think *I close my eyes* I traveled so far.....

[Aang]

Would not surprise me if you need to sleep, Sis. You've had as long a night as I have, I think...

*I smile still as I lean over and kiss my sister's cheek gently* I love you, Sis.

[Dellruby]

*eyes closed*
-sleeep.....yes, lets sleep now....

[DarkenLycht]

*Joey goes on knees before Dell so Poet can whisper to her*
yes I did Dell *smies* and now I cannot get stronger anymore and yet even if I was strong before...I could not save you, when you needed me the most *looks at Shep* I am sure you must hate me now, because I was weak and what ever you want to do to me, I am ready to take the punishment I deseve for this failure * tear runs down her cheek as she looks at Dell and Shep both* forgive me

[Dellruby]

You were shot like the rest of us, no one could help. There is nothing to forgive.

-Not weak,.... not bad,..... not dead,..... don't hate...be at peace...forgiven Poet.... rest now.

[Aang]

*I look from Poet to Shep and Dell, I am watching Dell drift off to sleep and I dare not ask Shep to leave her side, I don't think he would leave anyway and I know she wouldn't let him leave, so I just smile to myself*

Sleep now, big Sis. You need to rest. Poet, there was nothing you could have done...it's alright.

[Dellruby]

I was worried, she was so close to the edge, I was worried she wouldn't want to come back. or she would come back changed. I was so worried....

[DarkenLycht]

*Joey nods thinking* thank you so much *and then carries his sister back to the bed before she can say something*

Joey: you need rest my dear, too they are right

But...I...I failed them, Joey...I was not strong enough *she cries silently a bit* I just can't rest before I.....get what I.....

*Joey puts his finger on her lips* no..don't speak on

*pushes his finger away gently* but why...I don't understand that Joey, ang had to use so much energy and everyone felt so much pain because Dell was hurt since I failed to help her...why is that something they don't hate me for?

*Joey smiles* well then ask Aang

No.... ahe must hate me, too *cries a bit harder*

[Dellruby]

Beck Why do you want us to hate you Poet? And why is it wrong to you when we don't? I don't understand why you can't see we are just glad everybody lived...just this once, everybody lives! Accept it. we like you just the way you are, in fact we liked you way back when you were just human like the rest of us...you don't need to be any more than that.
