ON Bexes two more slave transporters left entering space headed for the neutral zone to the north between the Sesista and the Psemon empires enroute to the Jogarth home worlds, laden with slaves and the treasures from the palaces on Bexes and Chacuba.
They would stop near Theus, to collect more treasures from the raids into Theus. In the darkness two figures stared out, looking at the stars, she looked and sighed as far away he seemed to do the same, the time will soon come, when I will stand and be counted and in that hour?
Your love will be the only thing I have of any value, that will keep me strong and true to my purpose. She softly whispered as he laid back to softly whisper “When the time comes, I will be there for you.”
Nathan had had his final meeting prior to the attack, it had gone well, Tanya had gone off to check various details with Cxao and left him with Fehlise.
Fehlise was wearing new clothing when she stepped into his ‘office’ area, he looked up taking in her body shape and the skimpy outfit she was wearing, moments later he was making love to her with the same degree of hot passion, he had only dreamed about on their first encounter.
They had some refreshments and she propped herself up on the seating area. “I can never believe, how much energy you have. The raw sexual drive when it comes to us making love. “Nathan, you hot stud, what is your command?” She grinned, he stopped for a moment, damm he thought why are those words so familiar! He shrugged it off as he continued.
“I need you to run some timings and configurations for me on the deployment of ‘Wild child.” “No problem, just tell me what you want doing and I’ll see to it “ Back on the Chevan, Tan looked at the screen, I need to reconfigure the Omas its too rigid on its parameters and will probably lock out, or worse still, shut down if its overloaded during the boarding sequence.
Cxao leaned forward, he touched the panel, prising it open and pulled at a small panel inside, yelped, as his hand moved quickly off it, tingling with pain, Tan leaned forward grabbing him as he stepped back. Tan gently blew cool air across his hand.
“ NOT a wise idea to go tampering with the Omas exchanger ! Especially when its not been discharged first ! “ He nodded, she checked his skin and applied some fluid to it. It felt better, he smiled “ Nathan is so lucky to have you.“ She looked at him but said nothing.
Placed her hand on the small panel and there was a soft glow which faded.Tan removed the panel and adjusted a small lever on the back, finally replacing it “ There that should do it “ She replaced her hand on the unit and it glowed again, finally she replaced the larger panel locking the entire unit.
A few seconds later she programmed it. “All done! “
Aboard the Jogarth transporter, Commander Voge was not a happy man. Trime was violently sick on two occasions and it absolutely reeked! The stench in his quarters was so bad he had to leave! In a foul mood not dissimilar to the stench!
“Hose it down and that bitch “ He left them to it. They turned the hose on her and the cabin area then one of them stopped, his companion leaned forward, watching him, as he peered at Trime. “Well, well, well. What have we here ! An Agrimorph. Now arn’t you worth a coin or two!
Commander Voge had returned to find them staring at her, he was not amused, then the taller one told him “I wouldn’t do anything with it till we get to Polilra. It will fetch a huge bounty in the slave markets! You do realise this is an Agrimorph.“
His mate interrupted him demanding to know what was so special “Is he thick “ His companion tried to explain ,“That isn’t female or male, its both! “ Trime shivered and one of them threw her a wrap, “We’d better start looking after you “ One of them turned to the Commander.
“I’ll get some special Bexian food sorted for it and get it sent up sir “ “Excellent and Roe” “Yes sir” “Keep your mouth and his shut and I’ll reward your silence “ “Of course sir “
Princess Isabellini stood impatiently watching. They gave the first Bexian a Mubu (Injections but given, almost by laser, rapid fast.) Six more were subjected to varying doses, “If we can stop them morphing we will make substantial money.“ “How so, your Imperial Highness ?”
“I shall decree, that Bexian slaves purchased by the Jogarth people, may NOT morph. Their owners will be fined if they do! They will realise that they cannot stop them from morphing! Panic will set in and they will seek a solution? Which means they, have to buy the injection. We will charge the slaves for it.“
“But they will have no money your Imperial Highness” “Of course not, but their owners will! “ she smiled “ I am doing them a service after all providing them with such cheap slaves “ She continued watching as one of them failed to morph despite the attempts it couldn’t.
Its body became tense, it felt the pain tearing through its body and let out a sorrowful long drawn out howl of despair. Pain wracked its body, spasms tore through the Kets body as it shook and shook until finally it collapsed, to lay silent on the floor.
“Well, that’s not good! “ Isabellani stepped forward took a lance and shoved it up against the neck of the Scieste. “You have two Earth days. Fail me and you will NOT have a problem to solve re their morphing after that?” The others were soon following it!
Isabellani had left, muttering to the remaining Scieste. “Keep trying, plenty more where they came from, I’d remind you that we have at least three planets of them !! “ Aboard Raptor they had completed their tests, now it was time to take their weapon to the next stages.
Everyone ready Nathan ordered them to head for the Omirco star cluster “We’ll launch our surprise from there, as soon as ‘Wild Child ‘ can be deployed deploy to both ships “ “ Will do “ One of the Jogarth slave carriers had stopped near Theus to load more slaves from the Aristocracy and had seized more of the Imperial treasury. Now it’s systems started to flash, warnings ?
