(We left Georgia in the Medlab after her gang initiation. In case you missed the start of the story, have a look at:
Undercover Angel
"Benhi! STOP!" screamed Georgia. She blinked a couple times and looked around. The sounds of her own cries woke her. These nightmares had to stop. She needed sleep. She needed both sides of the angle to find out what happened.
At least she'd earned her bunk. She didn't have to answer questions about it. Though she told the truth, she left a few details off. Both with the cops and the gang. She tried to suppress her amusement when Security Chief Ranaldi lectured her on working undercover "People know when you're misleading, they can smell it. Use your background as your cover." Hell, yeah, she thought, it worked on you!
As she got up to wash her face, Georgia wondered what Benhi would think of all the trouble she was going to for him. He'd probably bust her head. "It's just business, babe. Leave the personal for your love life." Yeah, that's the problem Benhi, they done business on someone I love.
Georgia sighed and crawled back to her bunk. Sitting cross legged, she closed her eyes and began breathing deep. Slowly she raised her arms in slow rhythmic movements. Tension started to drain as her cells filled with air. She imagined putting her fear on a shelf. Her goal still existed. Tomorrow began the steps toward untangling who really ran the operation that got her friend killed.
(More when I feel like writing it. Probably a couple of weeks. I have an idea where the story is going, but not a definite one. Georgia might surprise me too. )
