Junjie met up with the others and made their way to the stations Ops. Once there, he placed Jelani's body in a body bag and stowed her out of the way of the work going on. He looked over his uniform and noticed he had a fair amount of Jelani's blood on him, No matter he thought to himself. I can always replicate a new one once we get things up and running.

He turned around to head over to the science station and begin repairs there, and was shocked to see Bingwen and Luli standing there. " Father, Mother. What are you doing here? "

His father Bingwen slapped him hard across the face and screamed at him. " You STUPID BOY! What do you think you were doing? "

Shocked and with his feeling deeply hurt junjie asked. " Father, What have I done? "

Luli gave him an angry scowl. " How dare you even ask that!! You have embarrassed us and the family. Why can you not be more like your father or your brothers and sisters/ with the way your going you'll never amount to anything! " She said with acid dripping from her words as she spoke.

" How have I embarrassed the family? " He asked.

Bingwen seemed to grow twice his size and raised his hand to strike again. As Luli spat at him and continued her tirade against him. "How? By being lazy and stupid that's how! You don't take your family responsibilities seriously and only do things half assed, I wish I never had you!! "

Junjie dropped to the floor in to a fetal position and covered his head. " Please, Stop! I promise I'll do better. "

Bingwen kicked Junjie in an exposed area of his stomach and nearly knocking the wind out of him. Luli looked down at her son amd sneered at him. " Promise? Better? You? Why would we even believe that from someone like you? " She asked " Not only have you embarrassed us, but our ancestors as well. You will be punished for it sooner then later. "

Her words pierced him like daggers, as she smiled evilly standing over him. Junjie peeked through his fingers and saw ghostly figures coming through the deck and gasped in horror.

Bingwen smiled cruelly. " Ah, good! Your ancestors are here. Let's see what type of justice they shall dispence to you. " The ghostly figures all pointed towards him and said " Guilty!! " The ghost turned towards the view screen and shot through it and out into space.

The ghost merged into a dull lance of light and sped toward the stationary Yosemite, The light struck and the Yosemite and exploded into a fiery ball of death. " GODS NO!!! " Screamed Junjie. " TAMASKA !! " he cried as the shock set in. " Now I have truly lost everything. " He said as he lie sobbing on the floor.

He looked back up and saw that his parents were gone and the Yosemite was back were it was before. " What's going on? " He asked. " Someone please help me. " As he lay on the floor in a pitiful scene.
