New Caprica (Orbit)

Boomer was furious as she woke up in her pod after Caprica 6 had shot her. (Why did she choose those idiot rebels? Now New Caprica is in ruins and now Cavil has the backing he needs to hunt down the fleet and finish off the extermination of the colonials.) She was now one of the few remaining 8s left with the cylons as most of the other 8s, 2s and 6s had left siding with the colonials taking a basestars with them.

As Boomer got up to contemplate her future knowing that with Cavil's personality shaped the way it was the, she and the remaining 8s, 2s and 6s would most likely be getting boxed a centurion came in telling her that Cavil had called her in to the council.

Walking in Boomer felt the emptiness of the room as it was missing many of its former occupants. "Ah Sharon its good to see you. Normally I would be furious, but it seems that you had the thought of mind to actually stay loyal to your people. I would like to reward you for this loyalty with the chance to box Caprica 6 personally once my fleet catches up with those colonials and finish what we started."

Boomer let out a breath she hadn't known that she had been holding. "Thank you, brother it means a great deal, that you see that I'm still on your side."

Cavil smiled though before any of the others present could speak, he continued. "Normally sister I would bring you along however I have another task that I need you to take care of. To box the remnants of our brother and sister models that remained after Caprica's ill thought rebellion seems wrong but having to take them any of their models with me hunting down the traiters and colonials would be a risk so I must ask that you take care of them and keep an eye on them here on New Caprica. This is not a punishment sister; I am leaving you in charge while I'm away and I'm sure that you would enjoy actually managing to make New Caprica a success with the remaining colonials that are still on the planet and the remnants on the other colonies so that you can rub it in Caprica's face once I've brought her back.

The other loyal numbers looked a bit worried, but Boomer was just happy that her loyalty to 1 had paid off. He had been honest with her from the start, and she had refused to believe him until it was to late. The colonials had been self-destructive from the start of trying to integrate the cylons with them on the new colony as small terror cells had wreaked havoc destroying infrastructure the cylons had helped build and killing people that had been willing to working with and help the cylons.

"Thank you Cavil, I won't let you or our brothers and sisters down."

The colonials that had got left behind were nervous as they had been forced to watch the remnant fleet jump out of the system without them. They were now at the mercy of the cylons as they lacked any real way to fight back if the toasters decided to retaliate. The humans were however surprised as they watched centurions simply collecting the dead bodies of the human model cylons while a few others replayed a message over and over again. "Please remain calm, the cylon council is currently deliberating on the events that transpired and how to move forward with the integration of the cylons and humans as they still hope for peace. At this point in time please move to the old residential district and prison building as the winter will be cold and these buildings will provide the best protection of your health and safety!"

To the scared, cold and tired people the message provided a sense of hope as it meant that there was a chance that the cylons wouldn't just kill them and may be willing to help them survive the harsh winter that they would be facing especially with all the destruction the evacuation had caused.

As the remaining colonials whispered among themselves as they salvaged what they could and headed for safety in the actual buildings happy to be out of the cold and away from the tents that had been their home of the last few months. Many wondered if the cylons had been serious about their peace offer considering they had not just killed them with some who had been labeled as collaborators being a bit louder in their anger with the rebels stating this was just more proof they should have actually put in the effort to work with the cylons as even with the fleet they lacked the infrastructure to actually fight back and how it had been humans that had done the killing on New Caprica while the cylons had mostly just detained people even being willing to let the colonials govern and police themselves even providing weapons even if it was just basic pistols.

Unknown the colonials the through the centurions Boomer and Cavil were listening and watching with glee. Boomer was happy as now she had an actual chance to build something while Cavil was happy as the remaining colonials were basically pets for the cylons as they would be entirely dependent on them. There was a fun irony for Cavil as now basically the cylons would be the ones owning the humans and what was even more fun for him was if he played his cards right if they were unable to find or destroy the colonial fleet then he would have an army of humans willing to help him kill them. (Oh, this is just too easy and thanks to that idiot 6 I'm the one with all the power and if this little experiment turns out to be a success and I capture 6 then it will be so much fun to make sure it's the last thing she sees is that I succeeded where she failed.)

As Cavil was transferring control codes for the centurions to Boomer, he also sent a message to the cylon forces that had remainined in colonial space having them bring the human survivors to New Caprica and to also bring as many supplies and shipwrecks with them as the supplies would help Boomer and make sure that she was firmly on his side.

"Boomer before I leave, I will be leaving you a few things." Outside of the in space three first generation basestars and one second generation basestar arrived. "While I'm sure that the colonials are looking for Earth, there is a chance that they could turn around to avoid me and come back to try and recover those they left behind. This fleet is yours Boomer, put it to good use, I'll be in contact once I'm done with this rebel business."

Stepping onto a transport Cavil had a hidden smug smile on his face as he thought about his victory being assured and how the cylons were now the rulers of the galaxy. Boomer on the other hand couldn't believe her luck as the man she had held a healthy disdain for and had worked against helping Caprica 6 whenever there was a council meeting had been the most loyal and honest being she had dealt with in her short life. Arriving on her new flag ship the old second generation basestar she felt a strange sense of wonder as it started to sink in that she for once held the power to decide and she was the one in charge. The only other being with more power than her was the main Cavil the 1 representative. Quickly finding a computer Boomer started to draw up plans for how she would make sure that things would actually work out on New Caprica, that she could actually have a place to call home.

New Caprica surface (1 week later)

Sitting in a cell one Lee Adama finished a workout set he had been busy with by placing a mark on the wall signifying his seventh day in his new abode. (Should have known the old man would leave me behind again, but I can't really blame him, it was my own fault for getting caught and the evacuation sounded like a mess. At least I'm sure Dee and Kara got out alright or I'm sure I'd be hearing them being as loud as possible in defiance wherever they got stashed away.)

While Lee was worried about what his friends and family were doing, he was also worried about what was going to happen to him as he hadn't seen any of the number cylon since the evacuation and he had no idea what his future held especially if the cylons decided to use him as a bargaining chip against his father.

Lee's question of his fate was soon answered as a pair of centurions came into his cell dragging him to his feet. "The lady wishes to see you Major." Being taken to a transport Lee just felt confused at as two 4s cleaned him up even dressing him in a brand-new military uniform.

"Be on your best behavior human or you'll end up in a dark hole and this time you wont even have the pleasure of the centurions company." Lee shivered at the idea of being stuck alone in a cell and decided to comply though also just to see why he had been called up for a meeting instead of being prepared for his execution to make sure the colonials would be kept in line or left in his cell until he could be used against his father and the fleet.

Once the transport landed Lee was confused when the bindings were taken off of him. "Remember behave human, your future and the future of the people on the planet below us in your hands." With the ominous warning given the fours left with the centurions leading Lee to the bridge of the 2nd generation basestar.

A hot ball of rage filled Lee Adama as his vision was filled with the vision of a female cylon he thought he would never see again greeted him. "Hello major, long time no see."
