Minbar’s tall crystalline structures refracted the sunlight into a multitude of colours across the floor of the courtyard, as Kiera entered, fresh from her tour of the compound. James Elliot was good fun to be around, and Kiera had missed laughing whilst she had been on Babylon 5.
She had had so much fun, in fact, that she had almost forgotten to take her suppressants. It was only the slow, gradual increase of volume of the voices that reminded her, and she began to feel sick, scrabbling in her pockets for the cylinder of medication.
James had noticed her panic, and tried to calm her, his voice a soothing balance she had focused on long enough to find the hypo and inject herself, sinking against the wall in relief.
“You knew?” Kiera had asked softly.
He nodded. “I…” He paused. “Kiera, a lot of the humans here… they’re telepaths too. I am, and I know at least six others, all high P ratings. It’s a fourth way for us. Unfortunately its becoming open to abuse. There’s already been one thrown out for misuse of his powers.”
Gently, he touched her mind with his. For the first time, it hadn’t felt like an invasion, or that her mind was being drowned out by others. Instead, it had been cool, calming, and almost…
Kiera pulled her mind back from the memory and stared at James Elliot. For the first time in a long while, she had found someone she could trust.
