Hi,
This is a short, (I'm talking 9 inches kind of short) aternate universe 
story that centers around what might have ahppened if John and Delenn WERE
Captured in 'Messages From Earth'. Thanks to Stephanie Rose, My beta reader
and multi-purpose cheerleader, (not that you're a prep dear) and to
Genisis Grace Heart, my critic. Also to Adam, for reading my stories and
assuring me I am NOT insane. Any and all comment, questions, critisms and
retarded house slippers to beckihblumer@fuse.net.

Love Always,
Meredith

Part 1- The Darkness, for you my light shines.

They had been captured. John and Delenn, leaders of the conspiracy agianst 
Earth, had been captured by the EAS Damascus. John stood there, his hands 
chained together, behind Delenn as they were marched to the holding cell. 
As she walked, Delenn was being periodically attacked with a shock stick 
by the guard. each time, John felt like killing the man. He and Delenn were 
just friends of course, but he couldn't stand to see her hurt. 
As the guard hit her agian, she fainted and would have hit the floor, 
but John caught her, checking desperatly for vital signs. She wasn't breathing.


Love in a vaccum,
Love in a space,
Love with out even,
The little hint of a trace,
Love in confusion,
When love doesn't show on your face...
Love is a stranger,
Love is a fox,
Love is a key that fits a million locks,
Love is mystery,
when love is the devil,
You go....

"Come on, Delenn." he said over and over agian, inbetween hits from the 
guard with the stock stick. She wasn't breathing, she couldn't die...John 
wouldn't let her. "Come on!" finaly, he saw her chest heave a little and he
knew that she would live. He picked her up, and carried her the rest of 
the way to the cell....

Put your heart and soul,
Where I can see them shine,
I wish you'd put your heart and soul,
Where I can think they're mine,
Put your heart and soul,
Where I can see them shine...

Once in the dark, dank cell, John laid Delenn down on the thin 
matress provided. She still hadn't regained consciencness. But he knew that 
she would live. He noticed she had began to shiver. And he took off his jacket,
and laid it reverently over her body. He suddenly realized how beautiful 
she was.....how very beautiful she wa to HIM. 
In a moment of weakness, he bent and brushed his lips on hers, 
which opened in a sigh. but he didn't let his tongue enter. 
Instead, he laid his head dwon next hers on the pillow. 
It would be alright. He would make it that way....for Delenn.

Love in a distance,
Love in a walk,
Love in the limit,
If only people could talk,
Love for the moment it takes,
Till it strings like a harp
Love for tomorrow,
Love for today,
Love for the hour,
It may be com'in your way,
Love for the puzzle you need a solution to play...
