SAFF Celebrations 2008

[procrastinatorproject]

I needed something fluffy tonight, so I continued on the next chapter of Meadow (the story with the giant round hover-cows. Because that is bound to cheer anyone up :D)

“Heads up!”

A thick rope landed in front of Raffi with a thump and drew her out of her silent observation. She looked over to the hoversled where Soji was already attaching the other end of the rope to a purpose-built tether. Behind her, Agnes and Seven were working on a bit of anti-grav plating that kept malfunctioning. If they wanted to get safely over the river, they wouldn’t want it to break down halfway across.

Seven had taken off her jacket and the warm morning light was glittering off the metal running up her right forearm. Her shoulders tensed as she tried to pry off a bit of plating that Ian had clearly soldered in place with great care. The contours of Seven’s muscles were clearly visible through the light fabric of her shirt, and Raffi wondered if she’d be able to see the implant on Seven’s bicep through the short sleeve. The strength of muscle and metal had something deeply alluring and it would be a long time before Raffi would get tired of admiring it.

After a few moments of intense struggle, Seven managed to break apart the recalcitrant bit of plating. She yanked the offending piece off with a grunt and chucked it over her shoulder.

Raffi sighed. That did not bode well for their primary mode of crossing the river…

“How’s that rope coming?” Rios had apparently decided he was done arguing with Elnor. While the young Romulan was still perched on his rock, looking back in the direction of the ship with a pensive frown, Cris had grabbed one of the anchors they were supposed to attach to the rocks and headed over to her.

“I’m not sure it’s gonna be enough.” Raffi gave the knot she’d been working on a final, firm tug, then sat back in the grass. “I’d really rather we didn’t make someone swim through this.”

Rios sat down on one of the large boulders next to her and took a drag from his cigar, pondering the waters in front of him. “Strange to think something this small and innocent-looking could be so dangerous…”

Raffi snorted. “Have you met your girlfriend? Doctor ‘I have never done anything suspicious in my life’?”

Cris gave her an annoyed look. “Agnes isn’t dangerous.”

“I’m not saying it’s a bad thing,” Raffi said, raising her hands in defence. “But look at her! You’d never think she could disable an entire Romulan frigate in fifteen minutes with nothing but a data rod.”

Cris looked over towards Agnes, who was currently half-dangling over the edge of the sled, doing some  upside-down repair on its underside, adorable face scrunched up in deep concentration. Cris’s expression softened, eyes brimming with love and adoration. “Fair enough.”

Raffi smiled. It was wonderful to see her best friend so taken by someone. (And it made her feel a little less bad about constantly getting distracted by her own partner’s thrilling feats of strength…)

Raffi cleared her  her throat and turned away quickly, looking for a topic to steer the conversation into safer waters. “And Enoch was sure this was the only way across?”

Rios sighed and turned back to ponder the problem at hand.

The river they wanted to get across was small enough in places you might call it a creek. It was a band of crystal-clear water, shimmering in the sunlight, burbling over rounded rocks in a way that fit perfectly into its picturesque surroundings. At this particular section, which they had chosen for their crossing, the waters got wider and more shallow, forming something akin to a ford. Except for the middle of the riverbed, where, for a couple of metres, the ground suddenly opened up to a veritable chasm. The unexpected loss of footing and accompanying extreme current had nearly cost Agnes her leg.

“Enoch said the river never gets narrower than four metres across and the fissure runs along its entire length. At least here, the insane currents are slower because the water has so much room to spread out.” Rios took another drag from his cigar. “Crossing anywhere else would be a death sentence.”

“Unless you’re a hover-cow.”

Raffi started and looked up at Elnor, who had walked over to them without making a single sound, even on the gravelly path leading towards the waters.

He was pointing to somewhere further downstream now. “Look!”

When Raffi followed his gesture, she saw a group of hover-cows lope towards the river. As soon as they got to the edge of the waters, the round beasts pushed off the ground with a characteristic gurgle that Raffi had grown to fear, and soared across the obstacle in an elegant arc. On the other side, they continued their bouncy run as if nothing had happened.

Raffi shook her head. “No wonder the locals don’t try to keep them penned in. If not even a deadly river can stop them…”
