“Heavenly Father, shower your blessings upon Cate and guide her in the way that she should go. If she ever feels burdened with her missions, send your angels to comfort and strengthen her. Let her know I am praying for her always. I entrust Cate to you, Mamma Mary and that you wrap her in your mantle.”

	Her thoughts now turned to her team. “Lord, bless the members of my team: Fairbairn, Bjornson and especially Colonel Larkin. Whatever rift we have between us, I ask for your healing upon us. All these things I ask in Your Son’s name. Amen.”


After a few moments of silence, Sister Helena began to pray Compline, starting as she did with Vespers. As she finished her prayer, she could hear Fairbairn play ‘Taps’ on her pennywhistle. Instinctively, Sister Helena put her hand over her heart to reflect and honor those who had given their lives while serving. As the last note of ‘Taps’ was played Sister Helena took off her scapular and turned off her lantern. She got under the covers of her bedroll, feeling the cool fabric beneath and top of her. Sister Helena said one final prayer and went to sleep, grateful for the day and looking forward to the challenges of the day to come.

Like the quiet vibe, thoughtful and serne after the action.

After Helena finished Vespers, she could hear Fairbairn sounding ‘Tattoo’ on her pennywhistle, which meant, she had about fifteen minutes before the sounding of ‘Taps’ and lights out. She sat silently seeking solace and guidance as she reflected on the recent events, particularly the Battle of Zulu Station. The chaos and the fear were still fresh in her mind. She pictured her comrades and remembered their bravery and gallantry in the halls of the space station. She remembered Major Will Troy who guided her from the Gate Room to the Chair Room and SG-8 who protected her from the Lucian Alliance. Finally one face stood out—Wing Commander Cate MacGregor, her newfound friend. Cate had been a beacon of hope during the battle, guiding Helena how to use Ancient technology. Helena sensed that Cate had a long journey ahead with her mission.

“I can,” the Scot replied. After dinner, the team pitched tents in the refectory, the cool evening breeze wafting through the makeshift camp. The scent of pine and the distant call of nocturnal creatures set the backdrop for their preparations. Sister Helena had finished pitching her tent, her movements swift and practiced. She glanced over and saw the Colonel struggling to pitch his tent, the poles and fabric a tangled mess.
She walked over to him, her steps confident. 

“Need help, Colonel?” she asked, her voice gentle but firm.

“Blasted tent! What am I doing wrong?” Colonel Larkin responded, frustration evident in his tone. He glared at the stubborn poles. Sister Helena thought to herself, “*These tents again*?” She was familiar with this design from her Rogue NID days, especially when they were on the run after killing Patrick and his team.


“Let me help, sir. I have experience with these tents from my past,” she offered, kneeling beside him. She could see that the poles had bunched up in the grommet, a common issue she had encountered before. With practiced ease, she quickly corrected it, untangling the mess and securing the tent in place. “All better! There you go!”

“Thank you, Sister,” Colonel Larkin replied, his voice gruff but appreciative. He straightened up, dusting off his hands. Sister Helena smiled, a warm but fleeting gesture, and returned to her own work, the moment of camaraderie fading as the night deepened.

After helping Colonel Larkin with his tent, Sister Helena turned her attention to her own tent. After pulling out an electric lantern, she moved her base kit and her duffel bag into her tent. She then pulled out her bed roll and meticulously made it with a soldier’s precision. She then moved all her gear into its proper place. Once she was satisfied with the results, she changed into PT shorts and a t-shirt, pulled out her scapular and her breviary out of her duffle bag and her backpack respectively and sat cross legged on her bed roll. After she adjusted the breviary’s ribbons, Helena made the Sign of the Cross.

“Speaking of night watch, have you decided upon the turns of the night watch?” Colonel Larkin inquired.

“Yes. I'll go first, then Colonel Larkin, then Fairbairn. I will work on a duty roster for the week,” Bjornson confirmed.

Are we in agreement?” Colonel Larkin asked, scanning the faces around the table. Three heads nodded in unison. “It’s settled. As soon as we finish eating, we'll make camp here. Fairbairn, I noticed in your files that you play the penny whistle. In lieu of having a bugler, can you play some of the major bugle calls on your penny whistle?

“Aye, I can,” Fairbairn replied

“Can you sound off ‘Tattoo’ at 21:45 and ‘Taps’ at 22:00?” the Colonel asked.
