Rated M for possible violence, blood and death.

Disclaimer: AVP don't belongs to me but to their makers, only Bruna the blind girl and the plot are mine!

Hi again, folks this is the sequel from "Blind Hunt" and it's my second AVP story.

It passed almost 6 years since C'Tack left Earth and Bruna, will he return to the Blue planet? One thing, it will appear new Predators, some belongs to C'Tack's clan and others belongs to R'Kahr clan, and both are good friends!

As for Bruna, her life changed since that Predator appeared on her life and she will met all of them, so you have to read to discover everything!

See you soon folks, enjoy the reading.

A brief note: Bruna on the first story was studying at night classes despite working during the day, and I didn't referred that.

I know by experience it is hard, working and study at the same time, sometimes we arrive at home very tired.

Following the heart

Life goes on

It's been almost six years since the Xeno incident in Zuma, and life went on from there, as the inhabitants begin to forget what had happened just under their noses, or even suspected that they had been the cause of those deaths, always thought it was a serial killer, all this was forgotten, but not one of them, Bruna Woods.

Does life was favourable for her during these almost six years that had passed?
She is still having nightmares about the incident, wakes every night flooded with sweat because of those nightmares, since then.
It was because of the Xenos that her life was turned upside down, was accused of a crime she never had committed, had been taken by an unscrupulous man to an underground laboratory in order to be questioned about the Predator that she helped, among other things.
Her whole life was fully investigated to prove her innocence, and in fact got out exonerated of all charges thanks to friends, and a good team of detectives who had helped in all aspects, all this took two years before could return to her normal life.

She was able to regain her honour throughout the process, even when suspected it, has always maintained the composure, with a smile, even though not seeing people, she felt the vibrations knowing exactly what they felt about her, distrust repulsion and not believing in his innocence, but the blind girl not cared about that, incidentally learned a lot during the trial and knew who were their true friends, and among them were Brad and Brian, the two boys who helped during the Xenos incident, at least not alone, and smiled as she remembered the good times they spent together with C'Tack, the Predator she had helped one month before the incident.

She never returned to live in Zuma, sold her house and then returning to his native city, LA, where she finished a Master, before meet C'Tack, at this moment is the last semester to complete a Doctorate in their area, Fine Arts and is teaching it in an art school, since the workshop where it was previously closed, she had been asked to manage it but declined for personal reasons.

Never forgot the Predator, who had helped a long time ago, even smile because both formed a great friendship, and shares all its sorrows and its past, which was helpful in trials by now, but there is something she did not tell him there five years ago ... that loved him a lot and wanted spend her life with him, but due to an unfortunate accident can't be, because at the time she wanted to restore honour and avenge the death of her master Taru in court because she had made an oath and she did intend to fulfil, and that in fact did, and stated that the Predator, before his departure.

Sometimes her mother notice her in listening the night sounds, before going to bed but nothing says it prefers to leave her alone, at least she know that she is healthy, both mentally and physically since continues to practice the martial arts, but wonders about one thing, where she acquired a brand in form of a crescent on the shoulder, and looked like it had been done very accurately with acid, it should have been done by someone with enough expertise it was very well done, without any imperfection, Bruna always told, it was a tattoo, and that was very special, and her mother asked her no more.

And Lance, what happened to his guide dog? Like everything in his life came to an end due to an illness, Leishmaniasis , which was detected too late, she was very sad because can't do anything for him, knew that by the veterinarian, it had been caused by a mosquito bite, and that consequently it transmit a parasite that has crept into your heart. She was always very careful with his health, but this time fate was cruel to her dog, his companion of many adventures. Lance had survived to the Xenos in the past, but not a disease that was discovered in time and could be treated to prolong his life a few more years, unfortunately it did not.
She never wanted another dog, because thinks it wouldn't be the same, after bidding was a true friend, and arrange another felt she was betraying his dog.

Sometimes Brad come to visit her and she is very happy to review it, this time he came to LA to visit her but notice something, Bruna is a bit distant in her thoughts, "Bruna what's going on?" She gives her hand to her friend a little sad, "It's my dog, I miss him." Brad knows that his friend lost his dog but then just says, "He was special Bruna, remember what you spent with him, remember the good things ok? "She shook his hand, smiling, then sit a paper in her hand," What is this Brad? "He explains," Well this is a copy Bruna, I would like to attend an after-work activity. "She very curious question, "What business is, and where it is?" Brad responds with a certain fear, "You could participate on a coral group, and it will be in Zuma."

When Bruna hear the name the city name rises a little afraid, "Are you kidding me right? You know very well, I do not put my feet on Zuma for almost 6 years, for other words, since that incident. "Brad sees the blind girl very unnerved, and hastens to calm her," Bruna calm down please, if you do not want to go it's ok, I don't force you. "She breathed in relief, and just says," I'm still with nightmares every night since that day, Brad. "He puts his hands on her shoulders looking at her lifeless eyes," Bruna I know you have loaded a heavy burden, as well me , we can not talk about it to people. "She sighs," I know Brad, if we talk, we would have the authority behind us, but I want to confide in someone we trust. "He look at the horizon through the window of the room, "Me too Bruna, but it can't be."

She closes her eyes trying to feel Brad's vibrations, trying to catch something more then asks, "Why Brian didn't come?" Her friend replies, "Well he is travelling, went to France, to a colloquium for the Fine Arts!" She frowns, "He is teaching at a local school is not it?" Brad nods, "Well he opened a workshop for Arts, a few months ago, and is having a roaring success." Bruna is admired because he thought Brian had begun to teach, but delighted smile, "I'm very happy for him, even though he's doing what he likes the most."

Brad sees Bruna's bar-room, "Can I take a little of whiskey?" It does signal, "Of course my friend is at ease!" Brad serves himself, and is starting to enjoy the drink, "Eh ... this is a fine whiskey, but I have something here that's much better! "She frowns," What it is Brad? "He pulls from his backpack a strange bottle, saying," C'ntlip, courtesy of our old friend C'Tack. "She begins to grope the bottle, "Whoa I had almost forgotten, the bottle is still weird as ever, but it lasted almost six years?" Brad nods, "You bet, the bottle is still full, you want some?" She goes seek a cup to the kitchen, and takes a very little time, shortly after, "Serve a bit, but don't abuse." Brad smiles as he puts a little portion of C'ntlip on Bruna's glass , "I'd better sit down, the drink is strong." She does exactly what the friend asks, but she heard other thing, "Sorry in not giving this bottle of C'ntlip to you when you left the hospital, but you preferred the other one." She close her eyes, "You are forgiven Brad, but I am glad that you didn't, and the Naxa Bottle well... I didn't open it yet.

So...Lets enjoy the C'ntlip ok?" The other nods, starting drink the strong Yautja's alcohol.

Both enjoy the C'ntlip, and Bruna enjoyed a lot, "Wow this is very good but it hits right in our heads!" Brad just says, "That's why I told you so!" She agrees with her friend, then Brad asks, "Yet you miss our friend?" She puts the cup on the room's table, getting a little sad, "Yeah, I miss him a lot." He looks for her fingers, she has two rings, "It was he who gave you this?" She runs a hand on the two rings, "Yes Brad, he was!" She reaches out, and he starts to examine the rings, noticing the carvings, "They are a work of art, your mother ever asked you about them? "She nods," Sure, but I told her that I had made them, she stopped immediately with the questions! "Brad knows it was marked by C'Tack, and asks, again," What about the crescent marking? "The blind girl just says, touching the mark," The usual, I had given the craziness to make a tattoo on my shoulder! "Brad begins to laugh," I suppose she must have fallen like a duck! "She nods smirking, "Of course, at least did no more questions." Brad looks at her, much relieved, then pick the glass , starting drinking, with Bruna, then continue to talk the rest of the afternoon.

Near Yautja's home Planet is orbiting a Spaceship, everyone is preparing for a hunt on the planet Earth, things must be in order , "So this ship belongs to Elder Tjau'ke's son?" K'Kadda, one of the Yatujas,says "Yes, he was asked to lead the Kainde Ametha hunt, he said some things were still unresolved!" M'Kaffi look at the fellow, but he concludes," It is also to start some of Unblooded Chiva. "K'Kadda is admired, but something escapes, why the Elder's Son wants to go to planet Earth, would there be anything else other than the rite of passage for young Yatujas," You know K'Kadda, wait and see.."
All found themselves watching the Elder's Son, and beside him the leader of their clan, and they heard what they are saying, " Honourable warrior C'Tack, thank you for accessing our request and borrow your ship to us!" He replies," R'Kahr old pall, we have met for so many solar cycles, and for me is an opportunity to leave the planet!" R'Kahr look to C'Tack, he never thought his friend could access to achieve to a high status , due to this last trip he made to the Blue Planet, made more than five years, it was thanks to him they discovered that humans were to study the Xenos to make biological weapons, and that ended it.

Since that trip he has radically changed, never wanted to have a companion or mate with others females, but what has happened? But also notice that he speaks the Ooman language very well, R'Kahr asks, "Tell me C'Tack, what you will do to the Ooman planet ?" C'Tack says nothing, and the friend asks nothing, but heard rumours that was in love with a Ooman, and he had to leave because she did not feel anything for him during his stay, then he thinks to himself, "I have to check this, when we reach the planet, for that I have to find out !" C'Tack looks to R'Kahr, seems to be very distracted, "Eh, what do you have?" He hears an answer, "What did you say?" R'Kahr just trying to divert the subject says, "I was just think about this hunt! "The other is satisfied with the answer, but R'Kahr looks at his friend," We will go to a place called Colombia to eradicate the Kainde Ametha?" C'Tack just says, "Yes, but we will stop at a Ooman Big City, called LA, I do not want to get rusty, my father can be harsh with me, you know? "The other rubs his hands with glee," Can I go with you? "C'Tack looks at him surprised," It is not supposed be with your own clan? "The other replies," They depart alone on their vehicles directly to the Colombian jungle, and at the end of their rite we will fetch them at the destination! "C'Tack smiles," Okay you can go with me, you can take two more of your subordinates to help!" The friend just says," Ok, we will not talk more about this for now, but I will love to go on a Ooman hunt! "

The other two look to each other, after all there is something else, and will go two more hunters with C'Tack and R'Kahr, and mutter to one another, "I just hope to go with them!" And they continue to watch the other two but M'Kafi notice that the Honourable warrior isn't a amateur, and not bad for someone so young have such large ship.

All Yatujas take their places and the ship leaves the orbit of Mother Planet , and as natural C'Tack makes a statement for all to listen, is about the hunt that will take place on planet Earth, and everybody is listening carefully his words, because it is a matter of life or death if they pay attention to everything, while they are on the backwater planet.

C'Tack goes to his chambers, to rest, he is very tired, so look at his exhibitor, where are all his trophies as well an offer, a braid who was given by a female Ooman, he rises from his chair, placing his glass of C'ntlip on the table, going direct to the exhibitor, where he took the braid, smelling it. The braid hasn't lost its fragrance of wild berries, then caress it sighing, "I miss you so much Ooman!" Then look at the Drone's head that she had gave him five years ago, remembering the good times when they were together, "Why you didn't come with me Ooman, you lied to me when you said you not loved me!" He starts to remember some things she said to him, which makes him a bit sad, but can do nothing, well the destiny has these things.

He begins to watch the space while he sip his C'ntlip, watch the stars and nebulae, until someone knock the door, "May I come in C'Tack?" He gets the braid on it place, responding, "Get in R'Kahr!" His friend enters , seeing C'Tack in front of his display,"What you have, admiring your trophies again? "A smile appears on the Yautja's lips, and the friend sees the braid that is exposed, "Well, now I see why." C'Tack sits inviting the friend, "What brings you here my friend?" The friend look at his wrist computer showing a map that C'Tack recognizes immediately, " Colombia! "Then begins to examine the map," What's wrong? "He listens,"The Unblooded just needed to know how is the climate on this area of the planet." C'Tack raises eyebrows," I thought you knew it! "

After, R'Kahr off the hologram, "C'Tack they want to know what to expect there!" The Honourable is getting a bit annoyed, "And that 's why you come? Did I not said that I wanted to be alone? "His friend raises his hands," Calm down!"The journey is not yet on half of the way ,and they are already boring C'Tack with trivial things, the Unblooded should have heard how the things could be on the Ooman planet, he gave some area maps and description, "Take it and not bother me R'Kahr, I have things to do!" After just says putting his hand on his friend's shoulder, "Sorry, I should not have be so aggressive with you. "

The other nods, excusing his friend, but sees the braid again, "This is something that you had hunted? "Quickly the braid that is on C'Tack's display is the centre of all attention," No, it was offered to me! "He is surprised,"What C'Tack? You didn't killed the Ooman? "He replied," Actually the braid belongs to the Ooman who had helped me, was about five solar cycles ago! "He quickly remembers that the meeting was about 5 years, was somewhat controversial due to some shocking things C'Tack had told to the council members, also told he had the help of a Ooman who helped him in everything.
He also knows that he has promoted to a hight status, and is very wise and fair to those around them, being an asset to the Elders who like his way of thinking, mainly his father the Elder Tjau'ke, who was very pleased by C'Tack's promotion, besides his ideas are fresh and they welcome it.

Notice that he look much to the Drone's head that is there but prefer not to ask no more questions, not to bother but he hears, "She is a formidable opponent R'Kahr, and a good hunter, should see when she faced the drones and the queen, that's why I marked as one of us! "A Ooman with a clan mark, without knowing C'Tack gives a clue to R'Kahr, so he doesn't have to search much, then he left his friend quiet,"C'Tack when you're relaxed, come to my room to discuss issues related to the hunt as well drink a glass of Naxa with me. And I want to know the story behind the Ooman Braid you have on your trophy expositor, I feel that is a great story!" He only hears the voice as the door closes," Yes, R'Kahr I'll be there in a few hours, but the story of the braid I have, is for another time."Soon the door closes and the Yautja falls on his bed asleep right away, thinking about the Ooman in question, Bruna Woods, "Wait for me Ooman, I will back to fetch you, then you shall be mine." And his room is in silence, he needs of all the tranquility that can have, to rest.

In LA Bruna is in her studio working on something, on C'Tack's bust, she had never forgotten his face and his strange hair, when her mother enters on her studio, saw the bust, "Well child you do weird things ..." Bruna blush a little, but continues to work on the bust, "It's just something I wanted to try mother, that's all!" Angelica says, "you have a lot of creativity, not bad." She smiles, then hear, "I always wondered how do you know if the clay is at the point to work? "A response is heard," There are already some years of practice mother! "She looks at her daughter's statue showing a small smile," Though the character you created is a bit strange and is very well made and balanced, it even looks real! "Bruna only think," If you knew mother, you would flee, he have a golden heart, and that's count for me. " Her mother continues to watch her daughter to work on her bust, being careful to every detail, and is proud to have a daughter full of resources, then she leave the blind girl alone, and go to do her work.

Bruna continues to work half an hour in her clay bust , and then will study for his PhD, it is difficult for her, being blind, but never ceased to amaze his peers, one of the best in their field, and works immense, without the notion of hours.
When finished feel the aromatic smells of food, "Well .. I think I exceeded the hour, nor realized that are already time for dinner! "Quickly go directly to the dining room, sitting, listening to her mother," Daughter, Brian called to ask how you were! "She asks," And what did you tell him mother? "Bruna feels her mother's positive energy, and it shows in his response," He said you were great! I could hear him laughing with happiness! "Bruna concludes," No wonder, no longer feel him long ago! "Angelica just says," Well ... he will come here this summer to spend a few days at Malibu Beach! "Bruna's eyes gleam of happiness, it will be nice to be with him again, "I'm excited to be with him again, my vacation are near, and will be a relief because it's my last year of study!" Her mother just says, "Thankfully, what do you think to do this vacation?" Bruna replied while pick a bit of food on her dish, "Well since you asked, I will go to Malibu Beach, I want to be a bit with Brian, and then go to the beach!" Angelica is satisfied with the answer, and continues to eat his meal but continues to speak, "After the evaluation meetings I will leave the city, I need a new place to relax as well catch some fresh air, while I am out. " After drinking a little of water and then begins to eat a piece of fruit, relaxed.

The clock rings nine bells and Bruna only say, "Well, I think it is time to go get some fresh air on the balcony and drink a little whiskey to help make digestion." And goes to the bar, and served no whiskey but Naxa, and her mother does not suspect anything, since Brad disguise the bottle.
She remembers Brad had told her that C'Tack had given a Naxa Bottle as well C'ntlip, for the three, shortly after being admitted to the emergency, and after that, she preferred the Naxa bottle and kept it religiously, and only tasted a few days ago, due to studies.
Leans against the wall with the glass in her hand feeling every vibration coming from the street and the familiar smell of the city and the garden which is a few blocks away, and starts drink Naxa, and have a feeling , and knows that something will happen but do not know what it is, barely knows that C'Tack is heading for Earth in particular to her city, LA.

Hi folks this is the first chapter, I hope you like.

In this story I referred a illness called Leishmaniasis, it kill the dogs if it isn't detected in time.

Naxa- is a fruit, but the Yautja can do a kind of drink with it.

I appreciate constructive reviews, thank you very much.
