It was one year after Visser Three had found Deir's head...
Edru was relaxing on the couch when Sirit walked in.
She had a tail blade now, a rather sharp one.
"Seems like only yesterday I found you in that Tail-fighter." she smiled. "You've grown up so much."
or when I saw you shoot that weird guy's head off in the torture room in your blade ship. Sirit laughed. I had nightmares for three weeks straight.
"Good times..." Edru smiled.
so any events coming up lately? you seem kind of busy. she asked.
"Yeah." Edru replied. "I have to go to this meeting later."
where. she asked.
"On my brother's blade ship..." she replied.
WHAT?! and you're going to go?! Sirit practically screamed.
"Yes. And relax kiddo, I'm not going to be the only one there." she said reassuringly.
Sirit looked a little relaxed but still nervous. I don't know... it still seems kind of suspicious.
"Hey, I'll be fine okay." she said. "You saw how I handled his last plan..."
Deir was just his puny little assistant you killed. she said. this time you have to deal with Visser Three himself!
"Calm down." she said. "Why are you so paranoid all of a sudden."
because I know what he can do. Sirit said plainly.
"So do I." said Edu. "He's my brother. How could I possibly not know what he's capable of?"
Sirit went quiet.
"Oh, and Cretri is comin' over to watch you while I'm gone." she said.
Ever since Cretri saw Sirit, Edru told her the story of how she found her and took her in, Cretri has helped with raising Sirit, kind of like an aunt.
well at least that's some good news today... Sirit mumbled.
"I'll be fine okay." said Edru.
Ding! Ding! The door bell rang.
Edru walked to the front door and opened it.
"Hey guys!" Cretri said happily.
"Hey Cretri." said Edru just as happily.
Cretri walked in.
"So you ready for that meeting?" she asked.
"Yup." Edru replied.
can I talk to you for a minute? Sirit asked.
Edru sighed as if preparing for a full on lecture. "Fine... but make it quick, I need to go."
The two walked into the kitchen and Cretri sat on the couch.
"Now what?" Edru asked.
you've been a Visser for too long! Sirit shouted. your confidence level has gone up to high!
"Umm... what are you talking about?" she asked.
you've changed! you were never this confident! she said. from what you've told me, its like you're the complete opposite of yourself from a few years ago!
Edru went quiet.
you used to be a little insecure. now you're miss macho. she said.
"You've been watching to much human TV." she said.
all I'm saying is just tone your confidence down a little okay. she said.
"Fine..." Edru finally said. "But I'm still going. Bye."
And with that, Edru walked out the door and left.
"Looks like its just you and me." Cretri said.
Cretri, you know Edru better then anyone, why won't she listen to me? Sirit asked.
"She's thickheaded and determined to get what she wants." Cretri replied. "You can't stop her. Believe me, I've tried."
what does thickheaded mean? she asked.
"It's a human term meaning stubborn." she replied.
oh. Sirit said. well that's true about her.
"Yup." Cretri replied. "You got any bark?"
this is going to be a loooooong night... Sirit muttered.
Meanwhile...
Edru was on Visser Three's blade ship in a room with several other high ranking controllers and... someone of very high ranking...
Visser Three blabbed on and on about stupid matters that Edru could care less about.
That is until...
Visser Five, I need to talk to you. he said in a rather creepy tone.
Edru got up from her chair and followed him into a different room.
"What do you want Esplin?" she asked angrily.
He held his tail blade to her throat.
your pathetic life. he said evilly.
Edru gulped.
"Coward." she managed to say.
what?! Visser Three said, astounded by what she said.
"You're a wimp. You'd kill me, but in your Andalite body." she said. "You wouldn't dare fight a fair match."
you're on! he shouted.
He morphed his human morph.
"Fight to the death." he said.
The fight began...
Edru slammed Visser Three's head into the steel wall.
Visser Three shoved Edru into a huge table.
"Ready to die, you pathetic excuse for a yeerk?!" he shouted.
"Dapsen!" she shouted as she kicked him in the-... well, you know...
"AHHHHHH!" he shouted in pain.
She held him up against the wall and twisted his wrist around... all the way around...
He grabbed her by the shirt-collar and held her in the air.
He slammed her to the ground and pinned her down.
Edru tried to throw him off but it was useless.
He put his hands around her throat and squeezed.
She couldn't breathe.
"And if you even think about abandoning your host you'll get squashed. Courtesy of my foot." he taunted.
Just then...
Someone walked in. It was the person of very high ranking. Visser One.
"What's going on in here!?" she asked annoyed. "You two have been gone for twenty minutes."
"H- help... me..." Edru managed to say before going unconscious from lack of oxygen.
"What are you doing?!" she demanded.
"Uhh... nothing." Visser Three replied.
"Let her go." Visser One said.
"Fine..." he finally said.
He released his grip on Edru's throat.
"Why were you trying to kill her?" she asked.
"Uhh..." Visser Three said not wanting to say the reason.
"At least she's alive." Visser One said.
"What do you mean 'at least'?!" Visser Three demanded.
"Unlike you, she's not an incompetent fool and if it wasn't for the fact that you are the primary twin, she would already be Visser Two." Visser One replied.
Visser Three growled.
"Another reason for me to kill her..." he muttered.
"She has better military tactics and her soldiers clearly have more will power then your soldiers because instead of threatening to kill them, she gets them in the fighting mood." Visser One smirked.
Edru awoke at that point.
She groaned.
There were red hand marks on her throat where Visser Three had grabbed.
She stood up and looked at Visser Three.
"Dapsen!" she yelled in a scratchy voice. And she kicked him in the-...I don't have to say it do I?
"AHHHH!" Visser Three yelled in pain as he held his... sensitive place.
Visser One smirked.
"Well at least one good thing came out of today." she said. "Visser Five, you're free to go."
Edru nodded and left.
Later that day...
Edru walked into her house.
oh my God! Sirit yelled in surprise. what happened to you?!
"Don't ask." Edru said as she sat down on the couch.
Her voice was still scratchy.
"What happened to your throat?!" Cretri asked looking at the red hand marks.
"I said don't ask." Edru repeated.
She laid down.
"Are you at least okay?" Cretri asked.
"Do I look like I'm okay?" she said.
"Well... no." Cretri replied.
"Then that's your answer." said Edru.
Cretri went quiet.
"Look, I'll explain later." she said. "Right now just leave me alone."
Cretri nodded and motioned for Sirit to follow.
Then Edru just passed out from pure exhaustion...
