Starbuck dropped the wrench she'd been using to pound a particularly recalcitrant bolt back into place.

Was that the sound of a viper engine or was she imagining things? She had to be imagining things.

Years of believing the impossible during the Cylon exodus kept her from completely dismissing the sound. So Kara decided to walk out of the hanger and get a look at the aircraft that had just flown in. Just in case the impossible had suddenly become possible.

Well, what do you know, the Gods must have been having sweet fuzzy kittens because there was a colonial issue viper, right on the tarmac.

She ran back into the hanger and grabed her service pistol before sprinting out to the Viper. The man was turned around so she couldn't see and features besides the fact that he was male.

Kara held the gun up to his head and cocked the hammer back, "Name, Rank, Serial Number and proof you aren't a fraking Cylon or your brains will be decorating the pavement."

Lee had seen that viper, too, from the window of the coffee shop that he'd begun to frequent. He'd been going over some plans to modify one of the other aircraft, so that maybe he could get the frak off this rock and back where he belonged. Kara didn't seem too keen on the idea, and his brother couldn't leave this place.. so Lee had decided to figure out a way on his own. He'd been drinking a cup of coffee and writing something when he'd seen the movement out of his eye. When he'd looked up, he'd recognized it as a Viper. And that, ladies and gentlemen, was why he was running to the edge of town where the hangar was. Anyone landing in a Viper was a friendly.. and anyone not crashing in their Viper was a gods-send. It meant they could jump out of here, get back to the Galactica.. and his father. But once he made it to the edge of the runway he'd noticed Kara, and her gun. It made his pace slow, but he wasn't going to leave this all to Hot-Shot Starbuck (just incase she lost her cool), so he was coming up behind her and a bit to her

Adama froze as he heard the unmistakeable sound of a gun being cocked. His hand automatically flew to where he has stashed his pistol, then dropped again as he recognised the voice.

"What do you hear, Starbuck?" he said slowly. Still trying to process the fact that the pilot they'd all given up for dead, was, well, very much alive. And holding a gun to his head. Nice to know things hadn't changed much.

Then he heard footsteps, and the second voice. Even without turning around (he had a rather edgy pilot with a gun to his head, after all - wouldn't do to make her even more on edge by moving), Adama would know that voice from anywhere.

"...Lee?"

[starbuckbuck]

"Nothin' but the rain," Gods damn she knew that voice.

"Admiral?" she said almost in awe. She lowered the gun and flipped the safety on. "What?" she said as Lee and the Admiral recognized each other.
