Invitations
It had been six months since the Earth fiasco. Eva had left Earth behind once more. She had a job to do, though she was very thankful to Rick. He had listened to her story. She had kept nothing from him. It had felt very good, and she knew she could trust Rick. He was like her older brother after all.
"Thinking again, your highness," Spring said from Eva's side. Eva looked over at her general and smiled. Spring had stayed with her through thick and through thin.
"Yes, things have been a little too quiet since the Earth situation," Eva said and looked out the large window of the throne room. A small dot appeared in the sky and steadily grew bigger.
"We have company," Spring remarked.
"I can see that," Eva said. "Why do I have a feeling this is going to cause a lot of trouble for me in the near future."
"So we are being invited to a race on Centauri. The prize is an alliance with the Centauri," the head of the Earth Alliance said to the ambassador of Centauri.
"Yes, Centauri is a major trade planet. We have this race every ten years to decide who we will have an open trade agreement with," the Centauri ambassador said. He was tall with dark green skin and light blond hair. He was a typical male of his race.
"We would love to race," the Earth Alliance chairman said. The Centauri ambassador bowed and left to his ship. "Get me Don Wei!"
The Crog War council had convened. Joining the meeting were Eva and the King of Naurasia, King Ain. The ruler of the Crog, Emperor Wodahs, sat at the head of the war chamber.
"I assume that your people were invited to the Centauri race," he said in his deep, imperious tone that really grated on Eva's nerves.
"Yes, we received it yesterday," Ain said. Eva merely nodded.
"We must race," Wodahs said.
"The Elon received an invitation as well, then?" Eva asked. A nod and Eva turned to leave the chamber.
"What are you doing?" Wodahs said in what was supposed to be a menacing growl.
"I may be in a military alliance with you, but that is as far as our alliance goes. I already have a plan forming. I will be racing for Elysian in order to take out the Elon," Eva said, her back still turned to the Crog emperor.
"You will not race for Earth?" Ain said with a hint of disbelief in his voice.
Eva tensed for a moment before continuing on her way out. "They have sided with the Elon, thus the Earth is my enemy, but I will protect my family. They have nothing to do with the idiotic politicians that run the planet. Hurt my family; hurt me. Understand?" Without giving the room time to respond, she left the chamber and closed the door. A moment later and a quick flash of light and she was gone.
