SPECIAL DELIVERY

“Will, have another,” said Daniels gleefully, as he downed his drink in one gulp. Will had made a bad habit of stopping by the station pub on his way back to quarters in the past when Janie and Edena were on board, and he always heard about it from Janie the next day.

“One more Nigel, then I have to get going. You’re already a bad influence on me, and I’ve only been here for a week.”

“We have lost time to make up for, so drink up.”

With that, Daniels downed another shot in one gulp. Will was always amazed at how he was able to handle his drinking; he never showed any signs of letting it affect him. He suspected this was due to practice more than anything else.

Will sipped his drink slowly and caught sight of Daniels laughing. In one motion, Will downed the shot to avoid the obvious ribbing he was going to take if he didn’t.

“That’s more like it. That’s the Will I remember. So how are things going with Dr. Karkovich?”

Will reached for the bottle and poured another shot.

“That good, huh?” said Daniels, amused by Will’s reaction.

“She and Jonas had a run-in, so he’s terrified of her.”

“I can’t say as I blame him. She’s a cold bird,” said Daniels.

“The strange thing is she is actually a good addition to the team. She knows as much if not more than any other member of my team. Don’t tell that to Jonas. He’d be crushed.”

Will downed another shot and once again reached for the bottle, not even hesitating.

“So what’s the problem?” asked Daniels.

“Her knowledge is the problem. She knows things that only I know, like topographic details of Earth that I know from watching those damn screens for years. It’s almost as if she’d been sitting next to me all that time. Something isn’t right, and then we throw in the black corridor, which I know she’s been accessing quite frequently.”

“Ah, I knew putting you there wasn’t a mistake. Have you found anything out about that?” asked Daniels.

“No. Jonas tried following her and saw her open the door, but she caught him, and he claims she threatened to remove his eye should he do it again. Needless to say, that put an end to our surveillance.”
