*********************************
Prologue,20 years ago:

"Damnit to hell!" yelled a loud voice. Phorim woke up with a start. He heard shrieking yells and confused voices outside the corridor. He ran out, not bothering to put on a shirt. He was tired and felt hungover, which was odd for a drago-katsov, especially on this damned planet. He was just as confused, tired, and grumbly as everyone else who had no freaking idea what was going on. The lot was so confused they couldn't hear the sharp breaths of a young boy hiding in the shadows. The person who cursed, Callurr, was running and addressed the large crowd. "The jewel of Infinite Wisdom, has been STOLEN!" he yelled angrily. After several minutes of the ubers cursing the heavens, a perseid scientist, whose name was Rekeeb, came running up. "Master Callurr, Master Callurr, I have identified the DNA of the intruder and checked the slave files. I've found a match!" He yelled in the seething crowd. "Well?" several of them asked excitedly. "His name is Seamus Harper. He's been a slave for 3 years." Callurr grinned. "Well, wherever he is, we'll find him soon enough." The boy hiding in the shadows looked at the jewel and considered throwing it in Callurr's damned face. But something, like an invisible hand, stopped him. Instead he just turned and ran. As he ran, the walls swirled into a blurry mass, and heard a familiar voice calling "Harper..." he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, Beka was kneeling next to Harper, who was on his bed. His covers were somehow tossed on the other end of his quarters. Harper sighed. 'It was just more memories' he thought. He smiled. "What's up, boss?" "The persied scientist Rekeeb is here to see you." As Harper looked up at the persied, he gave a yelp and rolled off his bed, and fell flat on his already brusied up back.

**********************
"Harper, are you all right?" Beka bent down and helped Harper back up. "You should be more careful with your back." "I know, I know," he whined. "Why is Rekeeb here?" "Because your captain is negociating between the persieds and the dragons." "Why?" Beka intervened. "Because years ago, the ubers took persied slaves and scientists and took them to... where again?" she looked up at Rekeeb. "To Earth. Mainly Boston, Massachussets." Without warning, Harper fell of his bed again and let out a long, pitiful moan. This time Beka seemed more concerned. "Harper, what's wrong with you?" Rekeeb intervened this time. "Master Ca- Master Harper, could I talk to you?" Beka frowned up at Rekeeb's slip. Harper seemed terrified. Beka shook her head. "Dylan called a meeting for the crew, and he can't wait much longer. Whatever you want to say, you're gonna have to wait." Harper appeared grateful. Rekeeb turned and left, followed by Beka. Harper sighed and hurriedly pit clothes on. Without hesitation, he left. Suddenly, Andromeda's voice echoed "Internal Defenses and sensors Offline." Harper frowned. So did the rest of the crew, waiting for Harper in obs deck. Harper shrugged. As he turned the corner, he found himself facing 5 guns aiming for his head. Rekeeb, 4 dragons, and... Callurr. He thought to himself, 'this is not gonna be my day' as Callurr led him in obs deck to a surprised crew. Callurr grinned. "Morning" he said with a sneer. He pushed Harper forward. "Does this criminal belong to you?

***********************
"Rekeeb, what the HELL is going on here, and who are these... FRIENDS of yours. Or did Andromeda forget to mention we would be having extra guests." Callurr chuckled. "Really, captain, didn't you hear what Sinti said, how the Drago-Katsov would bring slaves to Earth? You didn't think that would connect with Mr. Harper?" Dylan glanced at the crew. COULD they have been so blind? "Well, we might have over-looked that particular fact, but you might have over-looked the fact that Harper is part of our crew, and we won't be giving him into your custody." Callurr grinned. This was going just as he planned. "Well, I was just going to tell you his crime, which is punishable by death. You may not know what I'm talking about, but I'm sure HE does." He nodded towards Tyr, who raised his eyebrows. "What did he do, and WHY exactly would I care for something he did to the Drago-Katsov?" "You'll care for what he did, Mr. Anasazi, you'll care greatly. He stole the jewel of Infinite Wisdom." Tyr's eyes widdened and glanced towards the boy. Harper managed a weak smile. "They, uhhh... started it?" he managed weakly before quivering under Tyr's furious glare. Dylan broke the intense silence. "Uhhh... what exactly IS the jewel of Infinite Wisdom?" Tyr turned his icy stare towards Dylan, who also managed a weak smile, along with the rest of the crew. "My dear Mr. Hunt, the Infinite Wisdom is a jewel, UNFOURTUNATLY belongs to the dragans. This jewel can resurrect the original progenitor, Drago Musevini." The smiles were quickly wiped off everyone's faces. They wore stunned looks that traveled from Tyr's face to Callurr's, then finally to Harper.

"YOU STOLE A JEWEL THAT COULD RESURRECT DRAGO MUSEVINI!!!!!!" Dylan was so beside himself he had a twin. "How did you manage that?" both the twin and the original Dylan asked. Harper was white with fear. The crew were tossed in the brig and the Andromeda was taken over by Callurr, with some help from Rekeeb. "Harper, did you know that Rekeeb used to be on Earth?" Trane asked, with a perfectly normal tone of voice. Harper sighed. There was so much they didn't know... "Yes, I knew. He was the one who found out that I stole the jewel..." Harper explained as he tried to keep his voice steady. "I stole it after..." "After what?" Beka demanded gently. But Harper just shook his head. Beka sighed. Tyr stepped forward. "And when were you going to tell the rest of us that you stole the most precious jewel any nietzschean would DIE for just to glance at it?" Harper looked straight in Tyr's cold, brown eyes. "Never, especially a uber like yourself." Tyr's eyes were so cold they were shooting ice cubes. Harper just stared right back. Suddenly the door opened, breaking the tense silence. The rest of the crew were quite happy Harper and Tyr stopped staring at each other. It gave everyone goosebumps, even Rommie. Callurr entered, a wide grin on his face. "I hope I'm not interrupting something, because I have to question Mr. Harper about the whereabouts of the stone." 2 nietzscheans took Harper and led him into another room and tied him to a chair. Callurr looked down at the pale, trembling boy. "So... where is the stone?" Callurr bent low to Harper's face. Harper looked up in his cruel, pitiless eyes like he did to Tyr. "Bite me uber."

Note: i got the bite me uber thing from X's epic. i hope you don't mind too much.

thank YOU, mercury winter, for actually finding me funny. i've been more sarcastic and witty ever since season 2... i think i'm getting annoying habits from harper

note: this could go into R rated.
*************************
Callurr was not amused. He leaned closer to Harper's ghostly face. "I thought," he said through gritted teeth, "I told you to tell me where the damn thing is." "And I thought," Harper said, also with gritted teeth, "I told you to BITE ME. Unless you think I'm so inferior I'll give inferior mouth germs or somethin'" he stammered as he tried not to laugh in Callurr hard-ass face. Callurr withdrew and hit Harper a couple of times in his weak, tremblng stomach. Harper grimaced, but managed to keep his face more or less neutral. 'So he's not showing his pain' Callurr thought as he hit where Harper's liver should be, 'he's not as weak as he looks' he stopped hitting Harper. Suddenly, the ship lurched forward, and Harper knew they were in slipstream. Callurr, as he wasn't tied to a chair, fell over Harper. 'God, this guy must weigh more than Bobby Jenson' he thought to himself. Then, he spotted Callurr's knife. Being careful and quick, since Callurr was already struggling to get on his feet, Harper somehow stole the knife, cut himself loose, pushed Callurr off of him and made a wild dash to the door. But this is what Callurr expected. He managed to jump on Harper as the door opened. Harper started crawling out of the door, but Callurr got the better of him. He was about to break Harper's arm when he saw 5 pairs of feet just outside the door. Rommie and Dylan were holding forcelances. "Don't you dare hurt Harper one bit." came Dylan's order. Callurr stared up at the captain, then in one swift motion, broke Harper's arm. "OW!" Harper yelled. Dylan grabbed Callurr off Harper (with some difficulty) and slammed him against the wall. Trance and Tyr helped Harper lean against the wall. "Harper, are you okay?" Trance started checking Harper's broken arm. "I'm -OW! Fine." he moaned while Trance popped his dislocated elbow back into it's socket. "Thanks" harper moaned while stiffly moving his arm. Dylan, meanwgile, was questining Callurr. "Where the hell are your men taking us?" "Bite me, kludge," he replyed with a sneer, glancing at Harper for a moment. Dylan wasn't impressed. "Tell me where were going, god damnit, or I'm gonna stuff your inferior nietzschean ass out of an air-lock!" Callurr's trace of a smile faded. "It doesn't matter where we're going, but if you insist: we're going back to Boston, Earth." Harper let out a small whimper of both pain and fear.
***************
2 days later...
***************
The Eureka Maru landed in Boston in the pitch-black night. Unfourtunatley, there were too many of Callurr's men to fight. As they landed, Callurr turned and grinned. While my men talk with our superiors, feel free to ask Mr. Harper for a tour. And don't even think of trying to get the Maru up again, I installed a self-distruct device, and there are 3 nietzschean patrols out there, but I'm sure Harper already knew that?" Harper returned that last remark with a sneer. Callurr turned and left. His men forced the crew outside. Dylan turned to Harper. "So... where should we go?" Harper glared at Dylan. "I dunno. I don't really feel like going to the ghetto..." Dylan was about to make a suggestion, when voices cried "DON"T MOVE!" a group of starved-looking humans with blue and purple bandannas circled the crew. Beka looked at Harper. "Raiders," he said in an undertone, so the others couldn't hear them, "they go around raiding and killing everyone. They're as bad as the nietzscheans." But one of the raiders obviously heard Harper, for he stepped forward. "Seamus?" harper frowned. Only one person he knew on the whole god-forsaken planet called him that... "Brendan?"

************************
Harper couldn't believe his eyes. His own cousin, a Raider... of course, he was happy he was alive, but he wondered at what cost? Brendan smiled. "Good to see you, couso." he stepped forward. Harper gasped. It seemed he damaged himself (probably in the revolution) to the point where he had to have metal cover half of his face with a wierd, mechanical eye. "What the hell happened to you?" Harper said slowly, as if in a daze. Brendan stared intently at his cousin before answering. "Well, if I remember right, a nietzschean bastard shot me in the face and a Raider doctor said he would help me as long as I would help him." Harper frowned. "Help him do what?" "That's none of your damn buisness, Seamus." "You're wrong, it is my buisness." "No, it's not." "Yes, it is." "I'm not telling you anything." "You're gonna, you damn son of a-" "GUYS!" Dylan stepped forward and separated the 2 cousins, because it seemed Brendan longed to punch Harper in the face. "Uh, guys, I don't know exactly what's going on, but I'm gonna assume it's an Earth thing. And I didn't grow up here, so would you mind filling me in on what you're arguing about?" "It's a family thing." Harper and Brendan shouted in unsion. "Brendan said he would never become a Raider." Brendan fumed. "It was either that or die. Which would you choose?" "I would rather die!" Harper shouted in Brendan's face. Brendan took a step back. "Oh, I see. You would die instead of becoming a Raider, but for some reason you didn't want to become a slave even though it would mean your parents wouldn't have to die to protect an asshole like YOU?" Brendan barely spoke above a whisper, but somehow everyone heard him. Harper blinked and looked dazed, like someone just punched him in the face for no apparent reason. he stepped away from Brendan and tried to talk, but no sound came out. Dylan, Beka, Tyr, and Trance looked at one another tensely. Rommie was still on the Andromeda, in case they had a chance of getting thier ship back. Before anyone could say anything, Callurr came forward. "My, we seem to be enjoying ourselves" he said as he traveled to Brendan's satisfied face, Harper's mixed-emotions face, and everyone else's tense, surprised face. "Take him away." Callurr said to 2 nietzschean guards. They each took one of Harper's arms. Harper showed no signs of resisting. The rest of the nietzschean guards led the crew to the armory. Callurr put them in a separate room, but they could see Harper in the room next to them. The walls were made of thick glass, but they weren't soundproof. "Harper!" Dylan pounded the glass, but Harper didn't hear them. He just stared at the floor, remembering the memories he longed to forget.

**********************
"Shay, come on!" Brendan started dragging a young Harper towards the ghetto. "The Raiders are getting closer!" "IN HERE!" Harper motioned towards a small cave. They scrambled inside. "Get your gun out. It will be hard for the to attack in such a small place." Harper started exploring the cave. As he rounded a corner, he came face to face with-
"HARPER!" Harper jumped and looked wildly around. The yell startled Harper out of his memories. He realized he was all sweaty and shaky, and hoped Dylan, who was pounding on the window with his fist, hadn't noticed. Harper got up and wobbled over to Dylan. His throat felt dry and he felt hot-or was he cold now? 'Weird' he thought to himself. "Harper, there has to be a way to escape!" Dylan yelled. Harper was about to reply when the wall between them slid down. Confused, Dylan turned towads the now open door. 5 nietzscheans were accompionning 10 humans in the cell. The large room suddenly became a lot more crowded, and why the glass wall was removed was suddenly explained. All the humans looked pretty sickly. One of tem caught Harpers eye. A young girl, who looked about the same age as him. She looked awfully familiar... suddenly a group of nietzscheans came in and led the Andromeda crew into a different room. It was at least 50 feet high and 80 meters across. There were a bunch of weapons, a pit of molten lava, and two short, odd looking sticks. At the other end of the room, a door opened. The group of Raiders, including Brendan, were led in the room also. Callurr went in the middle of the room. He grinned. "Time to play the Trial of Judgement. The two competors: Brendan vs Harper." he exclaimed. The 2 cousins eyed each other nervously. They had both seen a few trials, and they knew the basic rule: Only one man survives.

Spoilers: Immaculate Perception.
**************
"What's going on?" Dylan asked Callurr. "It's simple. They each get a weapon, and they have a fight to the death. It's not new for them, they've competed in these matches before. They never fought each other since they're cousins, but..." Callurr trailed off. Tyr looked shocked. "Boy, when you competed in this competition before, would you win?" Harper rolled his eyes. "Well of course I've won, in case you didn't hear this is a fight to the death. Do I look dead?" Tyr studied Harper for a moment. "No, you look sick." Harper rolled his eyes again, but he knew Tyr was right. He wasn't feeling up to a fight. Callurr handed Brendan and Harper each a weapon. They pressed a button. Harpers weapon glowed a bright green, which hummed. Brendan's was red. "Lightsabers. Try not to get touched by one, they're very dangerous. Now, let the fight begin!" Callurr announced to the audience. Brendan and Harper met each other. "Look, we don't wanna kill each other, so we'll fight for a bit. After all, we are cousins." Brendan whispered to Harper. "I know, but you don't seem like my cousin." Was Harpers only reply.
They faced each other, and started fighting.
It started simple at first. One would lunge, the other would block. Thier lightsabers made a lot of noise when they would touch. They moved kind of akward, but they knew what they were doing. But after a while, something happened. They started fighting harder, faster. They moved gracefully. Then, they were fighting a hard, gruseome battle. Every lunge Brendan would do, it was easily dodged or blocked by Harper. Brendan had some more trouble, however, because Harper was the best human fighter in the whole state. Beka murmured to Dylan and Tyr, "Harper seems a lot stronger than we thought." They remained silent for a few minutes, watching the fight. Suddenly, Brendan knocked Harpers lightsaber out of his hands. Brendan prepared to kill Harper, but as he lunged, the most surprising thing happened. Harper somersaulted in the air, and since he was still far to his weapon, he reached out his hand and concentrated. His lightsaber flew in his hand and turned back on. Brendan didn't seem surprised at all. They continued fighting so well it seemed they knew what would happen beforehand. Callurr was not happy at all. "He's a MAGE, that bastard!" Callurr stormed out of the room. Everyone was surprised. "I didn't even see that coming!" Trance exclaimed. Beka appeared speechless. "He's a LOT stronger than we thought" was all she could say. "How did he do that?" Dylan said in awe. "Mages are a group of people- mostly humans- who appear supernatural, even though they are not genetically enhanced." Dylan blinked. "But- why wouldn't he tell us?" "Maybe he, like most of us, like hiding things." Beka responded. No one dignified that with answer. 'Just like I'm hiding the fact that my son is still alive' Tyr thought. 'Just like I'm hiding most of my life' Trance thought. All of a sudden, an explosion rocked the chamber. A block of wood fell, and to the shock of the crew, as they watched with horrified eyes, it fell on Harper and Brendan. The room collapsed.

Cool, it had Star Wars in it too, two of my favorite things. A mage, huh? That's a good idea. I don't think anyone's ever done anything like that before. (Good fight scene

).

actually, it's more like Seamus Skywalker

****************
"Alright, who's not dead?" Tyr was the first one to speak, after he managed to get out of a pile of rubble. He was answered by a bunch of groans and moans of pain. Dylan stood up. There was some light to see with, but it was mostly dark. Trance, Beka and Tyr stumbled over to him. They couldn't see Harper or Brendan. "Harper?Brendan?" The battered crew started searching.
*******
Meanwhile, back on the Andromeda, things were going well for the nietzscheans. The nietzschean who was in charge there, Phorim, was contenting himself by drinking all the liqour on the ship. He even drank Harpers secret stash of Neu Bayern Weisbrau and Sparky Cola. He found the warning on the label of Sparky Cola stupid. "Why shouldn't I operate heavy machinery or navigate the slipstream under the influence of this beverage?" his drunken self roared. Suddenly, without warning, he was flung up to the cieling. "That's why!" Anromeda said.
*******
They found Brendan first, and they helped him to his feet. Dylan wasn't happy with him. "You were gonna kill your own cousin?" "It wasn't my fault, the-" he was interupted by a pain-filled moan. "Harper?" Trance yelled. "Yeah, it's me. Mr. Star Wars guy." Dylan chuckled. Everyone has heard (and seen) those films. The stunning end of episode 3... "Where are you?" Beka asked, interupting Dylan's thoughts. "I'm where the levitating pole is." Everyone looked around. "What levitating pole?" Brendan asked, confused. A large pole suddenly started levitating in the air. "This one." The pole was thrown in another corner of the room. Dylan was the first to reach him. Harper looked terrible. His blond hair was ruffled and dirty, his face was sweaty and bloody, and his arm could have been cut off the way it was damaged. Mixed with the dirt,blood and sweat, Harper looked more sicker and downtrodden than ever. Dylan helped him to his feet. He wobbled, then almost fell backwards again. Tyr was the first one to talk to him. "So, why didn't you tell us you were a mage?"

ok, i'm seriously sorry for this part, it's turning into a MAJOR cliche from star wars. from now on this is an andromeda/star wars crossover.
****************
"Well?" Dylan patiently waited for Harper to answer. "Ummm..." "Or, perhaps you would like to tell us WHY you're a mage?" Tyr asked. Harper frowned. "Genetics. Don't blame ME for my great many times removed grandfather being what he was, or my master finding out I have the Force with me." Beka let out an exasperated sigh. "Harper, mages USED to be a legend. They got their idea from those Star Wars movies, then discovered that crap was close to the actual truth and practised their "skills" " Beka finished. But Trance frowned. Harper, who was your great many times removed grandfather? Because I remember that there was a legend that Anakin Skywalker-" "Darth Vader" Beka interupted. "-whatever. There was a legend that he would have a great, whatever times removed grandson would be a reincarnation of him, and reunite his people by bringing balance to the force-" "which was Anakin's job until he went evil-" "Beka, give it a REST! Anyway-" Trance walked close to Harper and stared in his deep blue eyes. "Do you know who it is?" Harper looked very nervous. "Yes, I know who it is." "Who?" Everyone asked at the same time. Harper appeared trapped. "Me."

**************
once again i apologize. if you're wondering harper's role, think of it like this: he's the genetic reincarnation of Drago Musevini for the Jedi (mages) oh, and i wrote this part after seeing star wars ep 2, and boy it was fun to see Yoda fight with a lightsaber!

********************
Beka's mouth dropped. "Oh, great. You know, you don't look ANYTHING like Anakin in Star Wars episode 2, he was much cuter-" "BEKA!!!" Everyone yelled. Harper sighed. Guys, don't act so upset, please?" Dylan raised his hand to stop Beka from saying anything else. "Master Seamus?" a voice behind them made them jump. A short, old chinese man was looking up at them. Harper grinned. "Master Ying." Harper bowed. "It's very good to see you." Trance frowned. "I've heard of him," she whispered to Dylan and Tyr. "Master Ying?" another voice arrived. A bunch of Mages entered the room, thier lightsabers out. They were surrounding a young girl. These people were in the jail cell. They must have been undercover. "Master Harper! So good to see you!" A mage yelped in surprise. "Hey, guys! What are you doing here?" Master Ying answered that question. "There is a new enemy afoot, coming here, helping the Drago-Katsov. Surely you have heard of The Knights of Genetic Purity?" Dylan nodded. "We fought against the Genites." "Well, they have a new enemy, just as advanced as them. The Knights of Genetic Impurity, of Genunites. They want to destroy Earth, and thier main target is Senator Alexia." Alexia stepped forward. She was about to speak when another wall exploded. All the mages drew their lightsabers. A bunch of robots entered. They started shooting. Since Harper was too far from them to chop them in spare pieces, he reached out his hand. A bunch of them got thrown backwards. They continued fighting. Some nietzscheans with special armor followed the robots in the room. The fight lasted for a long time. The nietzscheans were beat. But someone else with a long cloak entered. All the mages were frightened. "Alexandre."

Alexandre broke into a huge smile. "Hello. I hope I'm not interupting something." Harper cocked his head. "Actually, you're just on time." Alexandre's grin widened, and drew out his own lightsaber. The two started fighting. The battle was intense. Every time Alexandre lunged, Harper blocked. Everyone else just stood watching, Alexia with apparent interest. Dylan walked over to her, his eyes still on the fight. "Um, why do the Genunites or whatever want you?" Alexia looked over at Dylan and stared into his eyes. "Because I know something the Genunites, Drago-Katsov, and every uber in existence don't want me to reveal." Dylan thought about what she said and turned back to the fight. But then something happened between Harper and Alexandre that no one indeed could want to see.

"So um, Harper, how come this isn't bleeding?" Trance asked Harper as she treated his wound. "Well, lightsabers are so hot that they can... let's say 'weld shut' your capillaries and... your arteries and whatever." he explained the best he could. "But it hurts like hell," he added painfully. "And, how exactly did Alexandre manage to cut your HAND off?" Beka asked in dismay. She still wasn't able to get over the shock of having seen one of her best friends hand get severed. Harper sighed, and winced in pain as Trance attached another metal rod to his freshly cut skin. "I wasn't paying attention." Harper said, and Beka was sure he chanced a brief glimpse of Alexia, who was standing nearby. 'Girls' he thought. 'Yeesh.' Beka thought. Everyone else just rolled their eyes. "And where did Alexandre go? I was a bit distracted by your yell of pain and lying in a heap on the floor." Tyr said. Harper shook his head. "I don't know. It's like he just... disappeared. OW!" Trance finished attaching the robotic hand. "There, how does that feel?" Harper moved his metallic fingers around a bit. Master Ying hadn't said anything, but just stood there, silently and seriously. Harper knew what this stance meant; it meant Ying was pondering their next moves. "The Genunites are coming" he said at last.

"Dylan? The Nietzscheans who boarded me have um... disappeared mysteriously. I'm coming into the atmosphere now, I'll be there in 2 hours." Rommie's voice transmission ended in static. Dylan nodded. "Ok, people. The Genunites are coming, the Andromeda will be here in 2 hours, and Harper lost his hand. Have I left anything out?" Everyone shook their heads. "Good. Master Ying?" Ying looked up at Dylan, apparently uninterested. "Do you know when the Genunites will be here?" Ying sighed. "You all worry about time. When this, when that, how come this is happening to me, she's late, why doesn't she like me..." Ying complained as he rolled his eyes. "All you have to know is that they're coming, as well as the Andromeda. All we have to do is simple. We hold off the Genunites while protecting Senator Alexia. We get to Andromeda. We board her. We get home. We meditate." Harper quickly turned his laugh to a hacking cough. Tyr frowned. "Wait a minute, has anyone forgotten why we're here in the first place?" Everyone looked around. Tyr seemed very frusrated. "Because the little sorcerer here-" he nodded towards Harper "-got the Jewel of Infinite Wisdom with him somewhere, and the Drago-Katsov want the stone and him dead." Everyone looked around again. Apparantly everyone DID forget why they were there.
