�Besides everything, nothing Crichton,� Aeryn said.
Aeryn and Crichton began their usual fight as they ended their work together.
�They�re fighting again,� Chiana said.
�That is it�the next planet we drop them off and don�t pick them up for a while,� D�argo said.
�I agree with you�there attraction for one another seems to be getting them to fight each other more than like one another,� Zhaan said.
�So we are all agreed,� Chiana said.
�Yes,� D�argo said.
�Who will tell them,� Chiana asked.
�I will�if I tell them�they�ll take it as if Moya wants it and not their friends,� Pilot said.
Later that day Pilot had Called Aeryn and Crichton his Chamber to talked to them. He knew what he wanted to say, but he didn�t know how these two would react.
�For how long,� Crichton asked.
�Until you too are complete rested,� he said.
�When do we leave,� she asked annoyed.
�In an arn�Zhaan has already made arrangements for both of you. So don�t worry about clothing or shelter,� he said.
�So you�re basically talking about a vacation from Moya, Crichton said.
�Yes and we will come and get you when we think you two are fully rested,� he said.
�So what are you going to do,� he asked.
�I don�t know�it depends on the planet I guess,� she said.
�Same here, but I think this is what we need�some time away from everyone�you know time to think about everything that happen,� he said.
�I don�t like that we are the only ones going,� she said.
�I know I feel the same way, but we can�t fight with Pilot, so I say go and try and have a good time,� he said.
One arn later they left with the crew happily saying their goodbyes. It took another half of an arn to reach the planet form their current location. The planet was very colorful. The market place was filled with people of all ages, species, and sizes. Men and woman seemed to having nothing but fun. Crichton and Aeryn stood out in their all black Peacekeeper wardrobe against all of the other colors.
�I think that we should change later, since we don�t know our time limit here,� Aeryn said.
�Yea I agree with you there,� Crichton said.
They finally made it to the inn that Zhaan had made arrangements at for them to stay.
�Here�I am sorry but we only have one room open at this time, but your friend told me that would be ok � a middle age woman said.
�That fine,� Aeryn said.
�How much,� Crichton said.
�Don�t you know�we don�t pay for anything on this world� we do things here for pure pleasure,� she said.
�Pleasure is right,� Aeryn said seeing a young couple kissing in the hallway.
�The only thing outlawed here is negative actions and not enjoying yourself. Other than that you can do all most anything,� she said leaving.
�I�m going to go explore see what around �you,� she said.
�Think I�m going to check out this club about three blocks away�but I�ll see you back here for dinner,� he said.
�Yea, I�ll meet you here in 2 arns,� she said.
�Ok,� he said leaving.
Crichton had started out going to the club, but got lost. It seemed like woman here didn�t like wearing much clothing and were always coming up to him. He tried to cut through an ally, but got lost again. After what seemed like half an arn he found himself back at what was a mixture of a small town inn and a big city hotel. He went up to his room to see Aeryn had left, he decides to change. If he was here why not change now and this way Aeryn couldn�t say he hadn�t changed yet. He put on a white button up shirt that he tucked in to his tan pants. He than put on a blue vest type thing after combing his hair and putting his shoes on and began his way to the club. He walked in the club and noticed a rare sent went through the air. It was pleasant, sweet, and intoxicating. He ordered a drink and stared at everyone dancing. The music was loud and reminded him of one of his college parties he and DK went to. Woman seemed to be all over the place, but he was not interested in any of them. The club seemed to be darker than the rest of the planet, but still had a colorful background to it. He knew what the lady meant when she said this planet was only here to please everyone. If this place existed when he was a teenager he would of swore he�d died and gone to heaven. One arn had past since he and Aeryn went their separate ways and he too chose to go and explore. He needed to go for a walk and found himself in the marketplace. While looking at the different items he found a necklace. The necklace was silver and had a pale blue color stone the hung on the chain. He thought about asking how much it was, but then thought who�d he give it too.
�No money remember,� an elder man said.
�What,� Crichton said.
�Here all you do is tell me what you want and you do small earn and it is yours,� he said.
�What would I have to do for this,� Crichton asked.
�Just move these and the necklace is yours,� he said.
John did as he asked, and picked up the necklace. Aeryn would probably like this so he would give it to her.
�Do not drink the blue drink,� he said.
�What you say,� Crichton asked not really hearing him.
�It clouds the mind of the young it does,� he said and then went back in to his store.
Crichton knew if he stayed there for a few more moments and then started back he would be back in time for supper with Aeryn.
Aeryn left shortly after Crichton did and began to walk to the outside of the planet. The mountains were large, beautiful, and seemed to go on forever. She walked on the outside of the city for what seemed like arns. She then turned around and found her self in the marketplace. Food of types, clothing, jewelry, and extra stuff were all over. She saw two barrettes that were a violet color. She knew she had an outfit that color, so she picked it up. An elderly woman walked out and smiled at her.
�You want all you do is small earn for me,� she said.
�Ok,� Aeryn said smiling.
She noted she was very old and needed all the help she could get. She showed her where she need three boxes moved to the other side and pit on shelves. She did what she wanted and left knowing she did something good. The elderly woman walked to the elderly man, and they smiled at each other.
�They are meant to be,� she said.
�As we are�did you warn her,� he said.
�No,� she said.
�They�ll drink it not know what it truly is�poor outsiders. Let go night is soon to come,� he said and she followed him in side.
She walked around some more, noting the club Crichton said he was going to. She also noted that the people seemed to be in heat around here. It like none of them can keep their hand of each other. She had three men offer to get her a drink, she told them no and they left her alone. She didn�t understand it, she heard one old couple talk about a blue drink, but didn�t understand the conversation. Because of her walk early she didn�t know how long she had been out and choose to go back. She also knew that she would have to change, she hated this feeling of being the only one in leather and black. She walked in and noted Crichton�s clothing folded neatly on the bed. He must of come backed and changed, she thought. She grabbed the violet outfit and went to change. They had told the woman already when they wanted food and she said all right with a smile. Her raven black hair fell down from the tight peacekeeper braid. She combed it and placed the barrettes in her hair. She then put on the shirt and skirt and heard Crichton enter their room.
