Timmy woke up on his bed with mixture of emotion. Sweat greased his brow. Cold sweat dripped from his face. His head was full of questions. How did he get here? What happened to the monster?
His eyes wondered at his room. This "WAS" his room. Jack woke up too and looked at him. "This is your place right?"
"Yeah! It looks like it," answered Timmy disbelieving his eyes.
"What the fuck you mean it looks like it, it is or it isn't man?" quipped Jack.
"Hey piped down, I'm confused as you are...," said Timmy stopping in mid-converstion when a protoss entered the bed room.
Nevio stood up looking at them. Without any armor except for a white cloth drapping from her shoulder to the legs.
"Gentlemen, I believe i owe you both an explaination. Unfortunately I have none."
"Huh!" Bothmen were shocked to see a grey-skin coloured creature speaking without a mouth. Semi humanoid.
"Perhaps I should begin again."
"I am Nevio, I come from the KORPULU star system. And last night a creatures from my home attacked you and your friend. Jack is your name right?"
"Yes. "Jack nodded.
"I have healed your wound," explained Nevio.
Jack look at his torn shoulder uniform and felt his bare skin smooth as a baby bottom. "Shit, Tim, its right ..my right shoulder is back to normal," said Jack in excitement.
"Wow." quipped Tim stil trying to digest everything.
"Fuck no kidding," added Jack.
Nevio merely listened as the human conversed with themselves. But soon they turn to her again with a braver face.
"Thank you for saving us," spoke Tim firstly.
"Welcomed. But I'm afraid I'm merely undoing my mistake."
"What do you mean?" asked Jack curiously.
"You see, I was a refugee seeking to escape my fallen homeworld through a stargate." Nevio explained with a hint of melancoly. "Per chance upon my departure.. my warriors were ambused by the monster that attacked you last night which i refer to as the zerg. Countless insect-like creatures than infests entire galaxy like a locust plague as you terrans call it' She could see their undivided attention pressing towards her. "And so in my haste, to prevent any zerg from following and to protect the last refuge of my people. I reprogrammed the warpgate to overload."
"Let me guess it didn't"
"On the contrary, it did and it exploded into infinity along with my homeworld Aiur."
"Sorry to hear that"
"It is okay we were once a normadic race. Its the nature of the universe to be constant motion. But most of all i draw strength from the fact that my people are safe. An taras Adun," she explained, pausing for upon a thought. "However, it created a black-hole. And my intersellar shuttle was sucked into it as well."
"And that is how i brought you here, after i downloaded some of your memories into my mind. My sincerest apologies for that.
Jack and Tim just stared at her eyes opened wide. Tim and Jack exchanged looks.
Jack and Nevio continued chatting over what happened. Tim left the room to get some room to breathe. So he went over to check his answering machine like he does every morning. His phone recorded over 20 voicemail. Most were his friends and families but nothing of importance except the one from Police Chief Anita. She left a screaming message to call back immediately. She expressed concern over what happened and how they were doing?
Tim picked the phone off the hook just about to call his chief. But he paused thinking about what to say. This was way over their heads. But most of all he felt that he owe that alien creature something. His life maybe. In what ever case, Nevio deserved to know. After all it just saved his and his friend's life. Tim put the phone back on the hook.
When Tim got back to the living room, Jack stood up from the couch. "I think we need to head back there tonight!"
"Why?"
"To see if there is more of them."
