They were still three days out. Luna tried to tell me out 'where' but her drawings made no sense. We gave up and tried to organize ourselves.
Taff struck up an easy deal with his former captors. Anyone that wanted food or fresh water for the next three days should help him get his ship onto the beach for repairs.
They turned out to have some interesting ideas about floating it over the rocks, and some odd ways to use the lines. I thought the boat would be there until the Tocanni came back, but it was laying on dry sand before Luna's people showed up.
The exhausted Cardas slept in the shade of the hull while we watched for man from Picardy and his ship.
"Don't see 'em," I said as we stared out to sea.
"Well, you wouldn't," Luna said, trying to explain again.
"Don't you two get started," Taff said.
"Start what?" Luna turned and ran back to the hut. Between it and us, ten people stood. There was no sign of a ship. I noticed there weren't even any footprints in the sand.
The largest among them was darker than the wood of Taff's boat. He glanced around, saw the Cardas and barked something. Six of the men and women went with him to take charge of the prisoners.
A man with a very shiny head grabbed Luna. It was something a bit more than a fatherly hug, I thought, but a little less than lovers. Eh, strange are the ways of the box people. I stopped trying to figure out their exact relationship.
She introduced me to her War Master, War Leader and Heal Leader. They thanked me for taking care of her, I thanked them for getting the Cardas out from under foot.
The man from Picardy spoke to the air for a while. The Cardas and their guards disappeared from sight in an odd flashy light. Other people appeared the same way and started swarming over Taff's boat.
"They can't salvage that yet!" he shouted. "I ain't dead!"
"No, no, sir," Luna said, running over to grab his wrist. "They wish to effect repairs. You have done us a favor, it shouldn't cost you your boat."
"Oh. OH! Well, I'd better keep them from messing things up." He took two steps across the sand. "Can, uh, can they understand me? Like you?"
"They each have a box of many words," she promised. He nodded and went off.
The Master smiled and turned to me. "Well, if we owe him, we certainly owe you. What can we do for you, young man?"
"Not much," I said after a moment. "Any gifts, I'd have to carry to the winter village. Unless you want to sell Luna to me." I smiled to show I wasn't serious. The Heal Leader flinched from my showing of teeth.
"Ah, no," he said. But he smiled, too. "I don't think we'll be doing that."
"Thank you, sir," Luna said.
"Oh, it's just that the paperwork for such a transaction… Endlessly boring." He looked me over, then the village. "Still, I think something could be worked out."
-----
Taff sailed off with a temporary crew. Once he was out to sea, he assured them, he could sail the thing home alone. Eager volunteers from Sky Fleet helped him navigate the breakers, then did the flashy light thing.
The other workers gathered their tools and flashed away from the village. Finally, Picardy man shook my hand a last time. He nodded to Luna and flashed.
"Um… I guess this is good bye," she said. I picked her up and hugged her. She squirmed in my grip and climbed up to kiss me. It was a long, slow, deep goodbye kiss. I held her butt and squeezed it. She reached down and stroked my beard.
Then I broke away and put her down. "If I don't," I said.
"Yeah. I don't want to let go, either."
I looked up at the light in the sky that they said was their big travel box. "I don't suppose you need any fishermen up there?"
"No." She hugged my thigh. "You wouldn't even fit in the passageways." Then she took a few steps back. "Joint Endeavor, one to beam up, one to transport."
This was different. The entire world did the flashy thing. Then I was on the Plain of Boe. They'd moved the gifts, too. Right next to me, the metal knives, metal spears and blankets made from the uniform fabric were piled up on a sledge.
I got my bearings from the mountain skyline, took up the tow ropes and aimed for the winter village.
Above me, the light twinkled. Then it seemed to stretch out like a tunnel. And they were gone.
"Goodbye, Luna," I said.
