Chapter Eleven

Izzy and Arvolo sat in the Jenze’s room and waited for the shuttle to come and move him to the Mt. Sinai Hospital. They had been listening to the fleet network as ships reported in on their watches. Izzy had removed the IV from the Jenze’s arm an hour earlier and they saw him start to stir. Izzy came around the bed and stood looking down on the Jenze, “I don’t want him to wake up and think he’s alone.”

Arvolo shrugged and waited. He noticed that the Jenze had black hair and a handsome face. He had a strong jaw and deep set eyes. He had a hospital robe on and appeared to be in great shape. Arvolo sighed and knew he had another flat-belly to deal with. Why is it that all military personnel were thin? He saw the Jenze open his eyes and focus on Izzy standing beside his bed. Izzy smiled, “I’ve set the bones in your legs and we’re moving you to a hospital.”

“Izzy, he won’t be able to understand you.”

The Jenze jerked his head in Arvolo’s direction when he spoke and then started looking around. Arvolo followed his eyes and saw he wanted something. He got up and went to the closet and took out the Jenze’s spacesuit. The Jenze saw it and looked hopeful but then slowly shook his head. Arvolo reached back in the closet and took out the Jenze’s helmet. The Jenze’s eyes went wide and he motioned Arvolo over. Arvolo examined the Helmet and didn’t see any weapons. He handed it to the Jenze and he immediately reached inside and began unsnapping something. He pulled out a headband with a circular piece of metal about the size of a silver dollar on it. He put it on his head and closed his eyes.

“What do you think he’s doing?”

“I have no idea.”

“I’m learning your language.”

Izzy and Arvolo jerked at the Jenze’s statement and Izzy stepped back away from the bed. Arvolo looked at the Jenze and said, “That device you took out of your helmet must be a translator.”

The Jenze opened his eyes and smiled, “It is. I’m glad it’s been active and listening to your communication device for the last few….uh….hours. It was active during our battle with the invaders in hopes that we could learn their language and listen to their plans. It’s collected enough of your language for me to understand some of what you say.”

“Do you know what happened to you?”

“I had one of the reactors pin my legs. I was fortunate it didn’t break the seal on my suit or I would have died. What happened to the rest of my crew?”

“The ones that were still alive jumped away in lifeboats.”

The Jenze was silent for a moment and stared at them. “It appears your crewmembers thought you were dead. When the reactor room lost pressure, I’m sure they thought you were killed.”

“I put my suit on after I went in.” The Jenze stared at them again, “Who are you? I don’t recognize your uniforms.
