Chapter 4
Chloe caught Dean’s eye as he lead his brothers back into the galley. The smile he sent her warmed her heart. Dean was in heaven and it made her indescribably happy to see him so content. He grabbed a chair and sat down next to her. Leaning over he place a chaste kiss on her cheek.
“Good talk?” she asked already knowing the answer.
“The best.” He replied, the smile never leaving his face.
“Alright everyone. Let’s get this show on the road.” Duncan announced as he stood to address the crew.
“We going somewhere?” Kaylee asked. “Thought we had plans to make?”
Mac smiled. “Sorry. Old Earth expression. It means, let’s get started.”
“Oh shiny.” Kaylee replied.
“Mal and I talked and we agreed that I’m going to be the one in charge of this mission.” Duncan explained.
“Sir, are you sure?” Zoe asked.
Mal nodded. “Best to have one voice in command and we ain’t never been on a hunt before.”
The rest of Serenity’s crew murmured their acceptance of Mac’s leadership.
“I ain’t calling him Captain.” Jayne said.
“Mac is fine.” The hunter replied. “Let’s start with the good news. I was able to contact the council and you will be paid for your participation.”
“Pai an jiao jue.” Mal exclaimed. “You know we was on board anyway.”
“Not all of us.” Jayne interjected.
“As for our mission.” Mac said before anyone could jump on Jayne for being greedy. “I’m open for suggestions. How do we find a Reaver without going back to Miranda and engaging the entire fleet?”
“Mac?” Chloe raised her hand like it was a press conference and continued when he acknowledged her. “I might be able to determine if there is some sort of pattern to the planets that get hit. Might give us an idea where they’d strike next or what routes they're using.”
“I’d like to help.” Sam offered. “I’m pretty good with the research stuff. Well, I used to be.”
Chloe smiled. “I know.” She reached over and squeezed Sam’s hand. They’d been a formidable team once and she looked forward to having him as a partner again.
“Good idea Chloe.” Mac confirmed. “But the big question is: Do we try to capture one planet-side or in space?”
“The Impala has a grappling hook we could use to tow a Reaver ship but I’m not thrilled with the idea of docking with one of their death traps.” Dean said.
“The Impala?” Sam asked.
“Yeah, Impala XI, actually. You got a problem with that, Sammy?”
“No. No. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised you named your ship after your car,” he laughed.
“And don’t think Dean didn’t want to truck that old Chevy into space. It killed him to leave it on Earth.” Richie added.
“I loved that car.” Dean sighed.
“Anyway.” Mac enunciated. “I have to agree, a space boarding has its risks but I thought we’d ultimately have more control.”
“How so?” Mal asked.
“We could draw traps at the airlocks. Control their entrance.” Duncan explained.
“We’d have to do that either way.” Chloe reminded him.
“I don’t like a space boarding one bit.” Wash said. “If we’re docked and they sense a trap, they could just take off and rip open the ship. I vote for making a stand on a planet.”
“Also, Reaver ships are pretty unstable.” Kaylee said. “It could explode by accident and take us with it.”
“Planet-side would be safer.” Zoe suggested. “We could lure them down and grab one when they exit their ship.”
“No way to control the rest. We could end up in a firefight.” Mac said.
“We gonna end up in one no matter where we do this.” Dean said. “I agree with Wash. The potential for disaster trying to control a space docking is high.”
“You just don’t want the Impala touching one of those Reavers ships.” Richie said grinning.
Dean gave him a half-smile and a shrug, indicating Richie wasn’t all wrong.
“Mal? You thoughts?” Duncan asked wanting to make sure both crews were still thinking as one.
“I vote for planet-side.” Mal admitted. “Dean’s right. It’s hard enough to dock with a willing ship.”
“Is that the way the rest of you feel?” His inquiry was met with vigorous nodding by everyone in the galley. “Alright we land and lure them out.” Duncan said. “I think I know how we can capture one pretty easily and exorcise the rest.
“How do you plan to get them all?” Wash asked. “We don’t really know how many there are in a given crew.”
Duncan smiled knowingly at Dean. “I figured we’d pull a Hendrickson.”
Dean laughed. “Sure that would work. I’d just have to rig a few speakers on the Impala’s exterior as well mount some new internal speakers in key areas. Then feed the whole thing through the ships internal audio network. We can broadcast as they exit their ship. Of course, we’d need to isolate our target Reaver in some sort of sound proof room.”
“Hendrickson? Dean, isn’t that the name of the FBI agent who wanted to put us in jail?”
“Yep.”
“And?” Sam prompted while gesturing to the rest of the crew, indicating he wasn’t the only one waiting for an explanation.
“You and I - I mean - hell you know what I mean.” Dean was frustrated by how to refer to the other version of Sam. “We,” he said finally, “were trapped by a demon army in this podunk police station. I rigged the speakers to broadcast the exorcism rites. And poof no more demon army.”
“Very clever.” Sam was impressed.
“He has his moments.” Richie quipped.
“Hey-” Dean began.
“But why Hendrickson?” Sam interrupted.
“Right. I forgot to mention he was there. He had arrested us, then got possessed, then exorcised, became a believer and then let us go.” Dean sniggered at his abbreviated version of the siege. “He died that night and I kind of named the concept in his honor.”
“We’ve used it to great effect many times.” Duncan said. “But Dean is right. We are going to need a way to isolate our target from hearing the audio or he’s dust too.”
“We can fix one of the storage rooms on Serenity.” Kaylee suggested. “Make it sound proof.
“As much as you love this ship, we’re using the Impala for this mission.” Dean said.
“I thought we were doing this together?” Zoe asked.
“We are.” Duncan replied. “We only need one ship. The Impala is newer and faster.”
Kaylee was starting to fume at the dismissal of her baby. “Zao gao. That ain’t right. Cap’n you can’t be agreeing with this.” She pleaded. “How am I supposed to do my job in some strange engine room?”
“Sweetheart, you ain’t going any where near my engine room.” Dean informed her.
“So whose gonna fly the ship, if you’re in the engine room?” Wash asked.
“Richie.”
“So the rest of us just sit around while you do all the work?” Mal said. “Don’t sound much like a partnership to me.”
“You’re right, Mal.” Duncan said. “I think we can agree that we want all the Immortals on Reaver capture. That means, Dean, you’re going to have to turn over your engine room to Kaylee.”
“Now wait a minute. I’m not having some strange chick in my stuff. What’s this little girl know about my ship?” Dean said dismissively.
Kaylee popped up out of her chair, one hand on her hip the other pointing at Dean across the table. “I ain’t gonna be insulted like that. You best ‘pologize ‘fore I do som’ing that ain’t in my character to do.” Kaylee said.
Mal tried not to snicker at the idea of Kaylee taking down the stocky Winchester. Still he was angry that Dean had dismissed his crewman. But before he could respond a loud thwack filled the room.
Chloe had smacked Dean on the arm. “Apologize, Dean.”
“Don’t you smack me woman,” he growled.
“Than don’t act like a Fei fei pi gu.” she quipped.
Sam smirked around the two to look at Richie as if to say, Nope, not whipped at all.. Richie nodded in reply.
“Chloe,” he whispered, indicating she was ruining his manly reputation.
She just smiled and nodded toward Kaylee.
Dean huffed a breath and turned to face the petite engineer. “What do you know about the Dragonfly 4000 class?”
Kaylee’s eyes went wide. “You have one of them. Gao gan.” For the benefit of the others she explained. “It’s two generations past our firefly class ship. Dragonflys are the ultimate private transport ship. Compared to Serenity, she’d be bigger, sleeker, faster but with all the ‘bility to move in tight situations just like our girl. She must be beautiful.”
“I’ll admit the girl’s got taste. So go on?” Dean prompted.
Kaylee nodded and proceeded to rattle of the specs for the Dragonfly class ships. She then went on to explain how to trouble shoot certain situations. She would have kept rambling; her obvious pleasure to have an audience for this type of explanation evident, but Dean finally raised a hand to stop her.
He was grinning. “I changed my mind. Half-pint, my engine room is your engine room.”
“Shiny.” She squealed in delight and plopped back down in her chair.
“As for a pilot.” Duncan said moving to the next topic. “Any of the mortals in your crew able to fly.” Mac sent a look to Dean that stopped his protest before he could voice it.
“Well, River’s a fair pilot.” Mal offered.
“No way.” Dean snapped. “I have my limits and Yoda-girl is not flying my baby.” When everyone glared at him, he relented. “Well, at least not without supervision.”
“I can fly her.” Wash offered.
Duncan shook his head. “You’re Immortal. We’ll need you in the bay.”
“You don’t need me with a gun. Seriously, Immortal or not it’s just not a pretty sight.” Wash insisted.
Zoe’s mouth quirked into a half smile. “He’s right, Mac. Best to have him in the pilot’s chair.”
“I’ll second that.” Jayne said.
“Wash is the best pilot I’ve ever seen.” Mal agreed. “River can copilot. I think that’d be the best arrangement.”
“Thanks Mal.” Wash said as Dean snorted his disagreement. Wash turned to look at the elder Winchester. “You need me to pass a test like Kaylee. I’m happy to oblige.”
“I have no doubt you’re a good pilot. You fly this thing around.” Dean snickered and added quickly. “My apologies Kaylee, but it is proof of how good he is. Still, I’m not just handing my baby over to anybody who wants to fly her.”
“Wow Dean, five-hundred years and you’ve really perfected the art of being an ass.” Sam smirked.
“Shut up Sam. I just know my ship better than anyone.”
“When to I get to drive the Impala?” he snickered.
Dean just glared at him. “As often as you drove the original, which is pretty much never.”
“But Richie gets too and now Wash,” Sam pouted while nodding knowingly at Richie who was trying not to laugh.
“What are you five?”
“Gou huang tang!” Duncan snapped, causing the brothers straightened up to give Mac their attention. “We don’t have the luxury of being territorial. Wash will pilot the Impala. Dong le ma?” He glared at Dean.
Dean nodded reluctantly. “It’s my damn ship.” He muttered to no one in particular.
Chloe stroked his arm sympathetically and whispered. “And it still is,” she whispered. Dean smiled as he placed his hand over hers, holding it there.
The rest of the discussion went pretty quickly. When an acceptable plan was in place, Duncan concluded the meeting. “We’ll head back to our ship. Meet us there in the morning. It shouldn’t take us long to make the necessary preparations. Let’s just hope Chloe and Sam can find us some Reavers.”
