"AcerbusXV-1, squadron DX8 confirms alleged runaway is near you. Do you copy?"
"Affirmative, Excellency. Report processed."
"Status?"
"Already sent out intelligence to retrieve the latter. Will have her back in no time at all. She should be cowering in fear by now."
"Good. I expect no failure, Captain. You have my trust."
"I thank you, Excellency."
"A minute more, Captain."
"Anything, sir."
"Word is out she is your daughter. Am I not correct?"
Captain Aleksandr Kajiahd's otherwise decisive look turned into a look of shock and dismay. He almost screamed into the communicator. Instead, he let out a faint mix of his words, filled with surprise and indifference.
"My Haylen? My morning star? My daughter? Its her? What will her mother think?" He broke down into sobs, while clenching his fists.
"I was expected you were made aware of this, captain."
"I did not know of it until you informed me, sir. Haylen-"
"Captain, I most certainly do not approve of your excessive apathy here."
Captain Kajiahd fell silent. He clenched his fists even tighter and sank deeper into his chair, oblivious of the world falling around his eyes.
"Well then, let me tell you all about it. Shall I proceed, or do you wish to skip this?"
"N-no, Commander Riusche. Please continue. Forgive me sir."
"You are forgiven, captain."he replied emotionlessly.
"Permission to speak, sir?"
"Yes. Given permission.", the commander lazily sighed, while lighting another cigar.
"What exactly did she do? How big a crime commited was it?"
On the other side of the communicator, Commander Riusche, leader of Falsus-Maleth's entire army, while ocassionally puffing an expensive and rare, not to mention, old fashioned cigar, began his tale, not an old tale, but a fairly recent one, which in fact had happened at approximately 1300 hours ago.
" As usual, the youngsters, as you know, take the Recubo Expertus every year on this day, straight for a hundred and 14 years now. Since the day the prophecy was made."
A chill shot up the captain's spine. He remembered distincly the games he and his chilhodd friends used to play. They had so much fun enacting out the day of the prophecy, where the ones who failed would be imprisoned and tested again. Now it didn't even seem so funny. It seemed childish and stupid, an act of felony only a mindless one would commit.
He remembered when he took the test, how he was too timid to enter the room, where he had to summon dark magic by lying, by trusting in false hope. Yes, lies. All they lived for. Deception. It was what they were. In their blood. Their strength. They had been waiting for the black sheep, or in this case, the white sheep among them. And it was his own.
"Your daughter failed, Captain."
It shot him like an arrow through his heart. His beloved Haylen..failed. A shame to the family. To her mother. To him.
I never knew her. I never knew her. She was not my daughter. Not mine.
Black sparks oozed out from his fingers and engulfed him with strength. He sat up straight, eyes blazing, numb to reality. Only one phrase.
Not mine.
"You embarrass me Captain. All of us. 'To have the pest in your family. What a shame. You will report at the Pelagus Muneris at 1500 tomorrow. And..make sure you got her incarcerated and ready for execution, if you don't want to lose your reputation yourself."
"Yes Commander. I will." he replied, monotonously.
"How sure am I you will not let her go?"
"She is not mine. She betrayed the State. She must die. She is not my daughter."
"You surprise me, captain. You let go very easily." A faint sound of laughter echoed in the background.
"I do, Commander. Good night."
When the commander severed the call, Captain Kajiahd turned over in his chair and stared at the holograms on the titanium table. His Xaszina, his beloved wife. He smiled. Then he came across his wretched, accursed daughter. No, not anymore, he corrected himself.
An enemy of the State now. But a fairly dangerous one too, he added.
He deleted the once precious hologram and made a call to AvaritiaXC-35, an outpost on the barren wasteland outside the city.
"Lieutenant Onisd, caught her yet?"
"Almost, sir. She seems to be weakening when we use our powers in front of her. This was easier than I thought!!"
"I wouldn't be so sure of that, Lieutenant. She might have more up her sleeve."
"Yes, yes.."came the bored voice of Onisd. "She's under control, Captain. Will fill you in when we get her. AvaritiaXC-35 out."
The comunicator beeped off. Captain Kajiahd just prayed Onisd knew who he was dealing with this time. And the results had better not be a failure.

As the Captain was being contacted by the Commander, on the outskirts of town, a dark haired girl of seventeen and a half hid in the shadows, away from the running officers, searching vainly for hated this day. Everything that happened. She thought this day would be her best. So far, she fared the opposite. She cried in the darkness, blaming herself for what had happened. Her father was right: she was a failure. Ever since she was a child.
She was Haylen Misa Kajiahd, currently a fugitive from the State.
Accused of something which she'd never do for sure!! Of course, there were times when she felt uneasy about the false hope and lies thing but yeah, everybody was doing it so...
But she was never good at the stuff. When she tried, she felt a bit weak and gave up. Her mother shielded her from her father's taunts and jeers and let her sleep in her arms at night, humming a song she could never remember the words to, but the melody...
Mom. I let you down..
I am a failure.
She stiffened when she heard voices.
"Linhdt, check over here. She might be somewhere around here. And yeah, don't give me your know-it-all look."
"Fine," a pouty girl's voice answered.
She has disciplinary issues, thought Haylen.
Suddenly she shifted too much through the debris. She heard a shout and saw the dark figures after her.
She knew better than to sit there and contemplete on her past. She ran for it.
"Lieutenant Onisd!!!"
Haylen was running for it. She had no defense, no friends nor allies, no nothing. Her head was sweating profusely and she could barely see in the dark, but thats wasn't a problem to her. As long as she knew she was heading away from them, she was safe. She was sort of glad too that the state police carried bioluminescent light sources with them. Otherwise she would have been captured by now.
Rocks stung her delicate feet, dust and debris flew in her eyes and irritated them, but whatever she did, she wouldn't stop running.
Suddenly she realized a squadron of State police were standing in front of her. They had ammunition, canons, even black magic, her planet's specialty. And what did she have? This different power she was accused of having. Were they crazy when they blamed her? She had not even mastered simple dark magic! She was supposed to at 15, and yet all she had done was produce a spark. Not enough to kill or destroy. While on the other hand, her friends Lira, Airien, Hazim and Penelope were able to, Airien being the youngest to master at 10. She was so lame.
"Prepare to fire!!"
Oh no, I'm not gonna die..I'm not gonna die yet!!!
"Fire!!!!"
She braced herself for the pain to come, possibly excruciating, but it never came. She opened her eyes and saw bullets scattered on the grassy hill.
"Unable to hit target, Lieutenant!!", the whiny female officer cried.
"Use magic then!!! And make it strong!!"
The sound of guns dropping was evident and Haylen could hear a torrent of words from both sides of the perimeter. She was weakening, her weakness..no..
The last thing she saw was a black hooded being thats took her into its arms.
Whoever it was, it meant good, not evil, she was sure of that.
