A/N: Thanks for the review. Please enjoy.
A Few hours later:
The space craft was silent as the dead of night when everyone was suppose to be resting for the coming day until a groan disturbed the silence.
"We there yet?"
Viper simply rolled her eyes and did her best to ignore her childish friend. He may have been more skilled with some of his powers, such as flight but Viper was most defiantly the more tactful and patient of the two. Viper was able to sit back and think of a plan unlike Armies. So when Armies charged at a group of outcasts that were more powerful than he it agitated Veil and Viper. Esspesually when they had to be transported to the reviving chamber.
"Aren't you the one who wanted to go to another planet?" Viper asked looking to see how much father they had to travel. She didn't like being in this ship for this long either but she had the patience that Armies lacked.
"Yea, but I didn't think we'd be doing nothing for hours on end." Armies complained as he sat upside down in his chair. He was bored out of his mind and didn't see how Viper and Veil didn't feel the same way.
"Sanna never said why your grandmother wants you to take the thrown did she?" Veil asked making conversation for if he didn't get his mind off of Armies being bored, he was gonna stranglet he tiny illusion controller.
"No. She didn't." Viper said, "Guess it was something she couldn't say over the link."
"Why doesn't Sanna take the thrown?" Armies asked upside down still.
"I'm not sure." Viper said, "the books that I've read about the viper culture say that should the children of the ruler not wish to take the thrown it would fall to their children."
"You don't think Sanna wants the thrown?" Veil asked and yet again Viper had no answer but she knew Sanna would, if they ever got there.
Suddenly, the ship acted as if they'd his a pot hole but, as everyone knew, there were no roads in space. This cause Armies to fall to the floor, on his head.
"Ow!!" Armies said standing to his feet.
"That's what ya get for sittin' upside down." Viper said laughing.
Armies stuck his tounge out at Viper and then turned to Veil and asked, "What the hell was that?"
"We dropped out of hyperspace." Veil replied to his friend, "We here?"
Viper did not need to answer for the three saw the viper planet. Viper's breath was taken away but the scene set before her. The oceans only covered certain area of the planet and in fact, Malous was the exact oposet of earth. The land, a tan color with spots of green here and there, covered nearly the whole planet. This made Viper wonder how the people got their water but her thoughts were interrupted but a beeping."
"Whats that?" Armies asked in a panicky voice.
"In coming call."
"Sanna?" Veil asked Viper.
"Sure as hell better be." Viper replied, "I'm not in the mood to get attacted by mother's people."
Viper flipped the switch and Sanna appered on the screen.
"We are here, Sanna." Viper said.
"Good."
"Um…Vip…"Armies said from behind Viper. He had moved to look at the navigations system when he had heard a slight beeping and what he saw he did not think was good.
"Yes Armies?" Viper asked after telling Sanna to hold on for a second.
"You know how you said you don't wanna get attacked."
"Yeah."
"Well I'm starting to think that they don't care."
"why?" Viper asked
"Cause there is a relatively large ship coming towards us." Armies said, causing Veil to get out of his seat and stand by Armies to see what the fellow controller was seeing.
"He's right Viper. We might be under attack." Veil said looking back at Viper. The last thing Viper wanted to do was be caught in a fight with her mother's people. She had been asked to come, in secret no doubt, to help these people not to fight them. There was still time to turn back and go home but Viper had never run away from anything in her life and she was not about to start now.
"How large is the ship?" Viper asked trying to think tactively but this didn't make sence.
"About twice the size of ours." Veil said, "One shot from them would take out our hyberdrvie."
"But why send only one ship?" Viper asked, "that's not a very smart tactical maneuver. At the least send two."
"Because the ship is not there to harm you." Sanna said.
"How can you be so sure?" Veil asked before Viper could. He knew what she would say and so he said it for her.
"Because the personal guard to the emperess is aboard. He has been given specific orders to bring you to the palace. Rayanna, as soon as you get here, I will escort you to the emperesse's chambers. She wishes to speak with you immediately."
"Very well, what would you have us do?" Viper asked her aunt.
"Your ship is small enough that it will fit inside the royal air craft. Once you have landed and are safe with in the palace, I will answer any questions that you may have. Which I bet are many."
Viper nodded her head and awaited for the guard to give her directions to get on to the ship.
