A FORBIDDEN LOVE
An Invader and Science Drone Love Story
In the Irken empire, height means everything. It depends on your future, your career, your service and rank . Despite the fact that the average Irken is about the height of a child, some grow, and grow, until they are about the height of an adult. These lucky Irkens become the leaders of their world... but, alas, there are very few of these Irkens, and as of now, there are only two Tallest who are still alive, their names are not important, but they are referred to as Red and Purple. They are in charge of "Operation: Impending Doom II" and, thus, travel in 'the MASSIVE'. They are assisted by several 'Drones'. Such as Food-Service Drones, Security Drones, and.... Science Drones.
Well, that is the story that you are reading. It is about a Science Officer who believed he could do bigger things than his Empire assigned him to do, and how he helps a beautiful invader through the dangers of the universe. This is their story, and how they find that some things are more important then obeying their empire, such as Adventure, Friendship, and maybe... Love.
It was an ordinary day on "The MASSIVE", the Tallest were in the command center, eating snacks and laughing their asses off as they watched another planet that had been conquered get an Organic sweep, Service Drones ran around the Snack port trying to get enough snacks to please their leaders so they wouldn't throw them out the air-lock into the cold vacuum of space, and the Science officers were getting up and reporting for duty.
A particular small purple-eyed science Officer was laying in his bunk, holding the pillow over his head, trying to ignore the siren that was blazing right into his antenna alerting him to report for duty. Finally he gave up and rolled out of bed.
"Another GREAT day of serving the Empire", he grumbled sarcastically.
He yawned, did a little stretch, and sat up. He walked over to his 'dresser' and grabbed his clothes. He zipped up his boots and put on his uniform. Since he had Purple eyes, he was forced to get a purple technician suit. He thought it was a stupid idea, but he was threatened to be thrown out the air-lock if he didn't. He figured it was better to wear a purple uniform than to die horribly, however, if was able to see how miserable he'd be by working for those two tall idiots, he probably would have jumped out the air-lock. He exited his room and walked down the hallway with all the other Science Officers.
"Well, well, well, look at Mr. Beautiful this morning" A little Irken known as Dedric said, with a little self smirk.
"Go die, you bastard"
"Good morning to you too, jerkwad." He said with a laugh. Dedric was a common, if not typical, red-eyed Irken. He had a type of voice that was a little deep, yet some way light at the same time, which kind of creeped some of the officers out.
"What do want, Dedric?" The Purple-Eyed Technician said with a sigh.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you be using my voice, Cellar" He said with a snicker.
Cellar (that's the purple-eyed Irken's name) gave him a look of DOOM that shut the him up.
"I really hate you, you know that."
"Then why am I your best friend?"
Cellar hated to admit it, but Dedric WAS his best friend, if not his only one. Cellar remained silent and continued walking. He hated his leaders with every fiber in his being, so serving them every single freaking day was not really a bonus for him.
"So, did you guys here about the newest planet that has fallen victim to the ARMADA?" A little green-eyed Science Officer said, walking over to Cellar and Dedric.
"No, which one?" Dedric asked the Irken.
"Planet Detresios" The Green-Eyed Irken replied with a snicker, "The Planet sweep just happened"
"Is that all you people think about? Freaking God-Damn destruction of Planets?" Cellar said grumpily. He didn't like that the fact that Irkens destroyed so many races of aliens and their home-worlds.
"We're Irkens, for Christ's sake, we crave destruction, Cellar" the Green-Eyed Irken said to him.
"To hell with that, Uniter" Cellar shot back,
"We have no freaking use for these planets, OR their inhabitants. We enslave the people of the planets, and make do little tasks like shipping packages, that we are too lazy to do ourselves, and we just convert their planet into a freaking Parking-Lot! How many damn parking planets do we freaking need?" Cellar said, exasperated.
"Well, you are right about that. We don't need no more damn parking planets." Dedric replied.
"Yes, we need more snacking planets." Uniter said, smirking once more.
"You just don't get it, do you?"
"YOU don't get it!" Uniter said nonchalantly. Cellar just sighed and mumbled.
"So, who was the invader that conquered the planet?" Dedric queried.
"The Tallest will tell us as soon as we get to our stations.."
They finally reached the main room of the MASSIVE. All of the Science Officers went to their station, Cellar went to his station and plopped down into his chair.
"Attention all Science- Drones, Attention all Science- Drones!" A voice from a loud-speaker said, "Planet dash 2/47 a.k.a. Planet Detresios has just had It's Organic Sweep. Prepare to change course of the MASSIVE. The Planet's coordinates will be sent to your DATA Units. The Tallest will be here shortly to explain the rest, because I sure as hell won't"
"Hey, you can't say that!", Purple's voice traled in from the Loud-Speakers, "Red, make the guards take him away!"
"Why don't YOU do it yourself, you're the other Tallest!", Red's voice now trailed in from the Loud-Speakers too, "FINE! I WILL! GUARDS!"
"Yeah?", A Guard's voice trailed in now.
"TAKE THIS…ANNOUNCER…UNIT…GUY…AWAY!…RIGHT NOW!"
"NO, PLEASE MY TALLEST, I WON'T DO….WHATEVER I DID….EVER AGAIN! I-" But the Announcer's voce was caught off by muffled and cracking sounds.
"Sigh…", Cellar thought, "It's gonna be a HELL of a day…"
MEANWHILE… ON A YELLOW ROCKY PLANET.
In an Ancient -like Temple, horrible things are taking place.
"THEY'VE DONE IT!", an angry voice in the shadows said. "THEY'VE DESTROYED ANOTHER PLANET!!!!", the voice shook the temple.
"Yes, they have, me lord." another unseen person spoke.
"DON'T DO THAT!!!…Seriously, It kinda creeps me out…"
"Yes…Sorry, me lord…"
"I SAID DON'T FREAKING DO THAT!"
"Okay… But you ARE our leader…"
"I KNOW! BUT YOU SOUND LIKE SOME FREAKING BRITISH PREP!", boomed the voice. "Sigh… Just…. Just tell me who…"
"Who… what?…"
"Who destroyed It?!?! THERE'S OVER A FREAKING THOUSAND DIFFERENT SPY-UNITS OF THEIRS! SO WHICH ONE OF THOSE LITTLE DEMONS DID IT??!!"
".................................Um................................I................................."
"ANSWER ME….NOW....."
"I…..um….It's….."
"ANSWER ME DAMMIT!!!"
"IT'S HER!"
"What?…. I….What?" the voice trembled.
"It's her, me lord- I mean, It's just her…" the other voice said meekly.
"No…. It….Can't be…."
"It is….."
"No….You're lying…."
"I'm not…. It's her, you have to-"
"YOU'RE FREAKING LYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"I'M NOT! IT'S HER!!!! JUST BELIEVE IT, DAMN YOU, BELIEVE IT!"
"How could she…..I….trusted her….I….I…" The voice started to get watery, like it had a lump in it's throat.
"Loved her?…."
"……………………………...Yes………………………………............................................"
"I know….. I'm sorry……………"
"No……..don't be sorry…………SHE'S THE ONE WHO WILL BE SORRY! I FREAKING GAVE HER MY LOVE, AND SHE SAID SHE LOVED ME! THAT DAMN LIAR! SHE'LL PAY….. OH HOW SHE WILL PAY….." the voice said with much disgust, "WHICH PLANET DID THAT….TRAITOR…..DESTROY?….."
" Hang on……Planet……..Oh god……..no…………."
"Well………………….."
"Planet………….Detresios……"
"No………………………………..............................................................................................................."
"yes………………………………"
