Chapter 11:
Legacy of the Sevawing

I came back with the warmind and the general to home base, with the general being angry about something, something like a Sevawing or something? I do not know. All I know about it is that this so called Sevawing Almost killed us both.

"Tuo. Come here, Away from the Sevawing." The general said.

"Yes sir." He said while walking towards the general.

"First off, What were you doing going up into that floating mountain unauthorized? That just put is in a real situation here." He said.

"So we can collect 7 AI's. So far we already got 2." I answered. "I just got told by the AI that you are Deji."

"True, but what you are doing is recreating a living nightmare. I cannot tell you how many innocent lives, both sentient and non-sentient, was lost to the Sevawings. It was weak, so you were lucky, but if you were to come face to face with an fully rested Alpha, then you would've been dead in a matter of seconds. It seems like this one is an Alpha. We had a real situation where Sevawings killed sentients, even at their most powerful form. Nothing is compared to one of the most deadly dragons in the world. and with this industrial revolution and all, they are more adept at killing than ever. Do you ever know what they can do?" Deji said.

"No, I could see that they can shoot devastating lasers at us, and fireballs that are basically dynamite." I answered.

"Okay well, they can wield lightning and use it, and destroy anything that has any energy, or what they prefer is to absorb it. They are also immune to anything you throw at them. They only can be killed by photon axes and their own weapons. The axes have to be incredibly sharp as well." Deji explained. "Now the reason why we killed almost all of them because whats more deadlier than a bullet to the head and gun-slinging is the scarlet snakes, which are also adept at killing anything that is not a sentient. They dont even target the Sevawings, and the Sevawings do the same. So we get double trouble if one kills a sentient."

"Look at it. Isn't it just so misleading when it looks like a peaceful being, but then turns out it is a cold blooded killer?" Deji asked.

"Yes.. I guess it is." I answered. "How are they here anyway?"

"People say they are aliens, some of us think that they may be crawling from the surface. High counsel commanded us to go find them, and results show that they are not from this land. I know a friend who is one. Rhenka. He became someone I do not like anymore, since he destroyed each and every one of the actual aliens, and destroyed their planet. I thought that we could stop it by communication, but I guess that Rhenka had enough."

"Why did you take them away from me...? Why did you make them suffer..?" The Sevawing weakly said.

It was known that he just woke up, and we looked at it again, we saw one of the staff with him. We could only hear him faintly, as the Sevawing started to slowly struggle.

"What are you going to do to me..? Kill me like the others..? Are humans really this stubborn as we thought?" The Sevawing said.

Deji crept closer as he tried to find out what the staff member was saying. He started hearing at the volume where he could understand what he was saying.

"We will have to see what the council says. Hopefully you can live. Focus on not killing anybody for now." The staff member said. "We will ensure your safety when we get back. Deji might disagree, but between you and me, you were only trying to protect yourself."

"What did he say?" Tuo asked.

"He is going to try and make sure he doesn't die, and he thinks he was only trying to protect himself." Deji suggested. "Such lies. Let me go and see what he is planning to do. Stay here, I will be back."

Deji then gone away into the corridors, and that gave me some time to think about it. It was a legitimate reason. I know I would if it was a thief. The AI we took from him might anger him so I am not that sure if I want to be close to him inside the warmind. Then I overheard Deji talking. I could not hear them clearly, but I could see if Inaj can translate. I reached for the warmind's base and commanded Inaj to translate speech to text. He began listening. The receiver started picking it up, and in the hologram, it was written: What are you doing, trying to save this being, that killed many of us? Then it erased from the hologram. it then received a new one. It read; Well sorry if your old friend killed the beings that had potential to kill more than all the Sevawings combined, He had someone to protect. Rhenka only did that because Equinox was sick! The aliens that came from the other world would've ended her, and the prophecy! I know him Deji, its not what you think!

I got so much information about what Deji was thinking about the poor Sevawing, but now his side of the story might have to come out sooner or later right? So I told Inaj to stop translating and I put him on my back. This was strange. If they exterminated them, and then the scarlet snakes increase in population size, then why couldn't they just deport them? The current situation with the 7 AI's was stressful, but this is getting out of hand. Deji then came back and then sat across from me.

"So what was he doing?" I asked.

"Trying to protect the Sevawing from any harm. I do not believe these savage creatures have this so called mercy." Deji said.

"So, can you tell me more about these Sevawings? I am really wanting to know more about these creatures." I said.

He looked at me with a face of disgust, but he sat back down onto the chair across me, and then started to tell the information. I did not know it would actually work to get down into his roots. He continued.

"First time we heard about these Sevawings when some of the local authorities caught people distributing them into the city. We did not know where they came from. Although were I came from and were that staff member came from was Gentau. We saw him being tortured, being torn apart after we saved Sasha from a cave where magma was rising. The artifact she bring apparently saved his life, and the warmind engineer died. The warmind you have now was originally made for Rhenka, but you seem to be operating it just fine. Anyways, he was never identified until he really shown his nature. What Sevawings can do is harness electricity, but Rhenka handled it so well, and so fast, that it was shocking. Destroying what could've been a way of peace, came from Rhenka, the Sevawing. What she was saying about me not understanding is when we were actually standing next to him, seeing the armada come for us. She saw something I do not believe I saw. His wife was very sick, she stated. She knows what happened, but he should've not did that. We probably just attracted a 1 vs 10 battle for doing that. After he did that we removed the warmind on his chest, and the high council forcefully banned him from the country. The day that Gentau fell, was about one month later when Rhenka did not have the warmind, but instead was safe from harm. Me and Sasha barely made it out alive, and from that day we swore not to let a Sevawing attract a huge armada to this world." Deji said. "We presented our case to the authorities, and they officially released a warrant for all Sevawings in the world, every one killed from one person gets riches far from a diamond. Our new unit hunted them down and successfully killed 2. None of them were Alphas, but almost 81 percent of our team was wiped out from them. I saw Rhenka one day with another Sevawing and Equinox. What I did not understand is why they killed the other sentients but not the sentient Equinox. Rhenka probably convinced them that Equinox was a Sevawing in disguise or, just a friend to him that did not trigger any aggression. I backed away before he could see me. I kept the warmind just in case the 10 empires come for us and I spread them out around the world, so that if any evil force seeks for a way to destroy us all, that would not be the case."

"I believe Sasha. You might of caused the mass killing of humans, but the sentients is unexplained. maybe we should protect them and see why they attack the sentients." I explained.

"Fine, have it your way, but watch your back, he could back-stab you again." Deji warned.

I was dismissed for now, and I spent the extra time on the mothership making sure that the Sevawing somewhat has a sense of comfort. I walked to the containment cell, and I saw him backing up from me. I tried to speak, but his gaze made my knees shake, and I was still afraid he was going to pin me down again.

"What you want from me now! Cant you see this is a hard time!?" The Sevawing said.

"Do not worry I'm with her I know that you were hunted down and was killed, but I am not like them. Please, let us help. I am willing to commit treason to get you the chance to be alive. Just behave for now. Okay?" I said.

"I can." The Sevawing said.

"Good now, you know who Sasha is?" I asked.

"Yes, she is with you. She gone to the room on the right. Second door." The Sevawing informed.

"Alright thank you for understanding." I said to him.

So I gone where the Sevawing said she was. I could see him looking at me the second I was possible for him to see. I opened the door and saw her sitting on a chair, with her head on her hand.

"Hello? Sasha?"

"Tuo. How nice to see you again. It must of been terrifying when going face to face with him right?"

"Yes I know. You think you can give me some thing that I can know him by?"

"Well he told me that his name was Mideran, and he was an Alpha who survived the massacre. You willing to help me make sure he still has other days to live?"

"Until the end of the earth."

"Good, make sure he can handle being in front of us. If we can do that maybe they might loosen up a old warrant that will break." Sasha suggested.

I then exited the room. Mideran kept looking at me strange. I gone back to him and he gone back to sleep already. I sat down with him and kept myself silent. I thought to myself that maybe there is a chance, but for now, we have to find the other 5 AI's. There is no telling what they can do to an AI if it goes to the wrong hands.

"I am sorry.. you just startled me at that time. I did not know about you until now, so whatever happens to me, please do let mistakes like this befall any others." Mideran said. "I wish I could just let them live one more time, just to see them again.. This is so hard to let go."
