Chapter 21

KERRIGAN'S LEVIATHAN

Jim looked at Kaldir from the organic window and could feel Kerrigan's life force from all the way from orbit but that would be thanks to his psionic powers and the link between them, but he had started to notice something else about the link like there was a third person in the link but then he looked at his daughter who was having a nap beside him, "Of course between me and Kerrigan why shouldn't our little girl be part of it" Jim thought as he confirmed the third person was Lilith, He looked to see that Lilith had a smile on her face instead of the twisted frowns she would have during her nightmares, "I wonder what happy dream you are dreaming now Sweetie" Jim thought as it brang relief to him to see her like that.

KALDIR'S BATTLEFIELD

Kerrigan made her way towards the first Spire with her Roaches in front of her defeating any Protoss that stood in her way, Kerrigan looked ahead to see a choke point with photon cannons on ledges that would easily kill her Roaches, "Hmm how can I do this?" Kerrigan thought as she ordered her Roaches to stop moving forward as she began to think of her solution, "The next Flash Freeze would work" she said as she could feel the cold winds about to get even colder, "Flash Freeze" Izsha announced which Kerrigan moved forward quickly taking advantage of the time with the Flash Freeze to destroy the photon cannons and the Protoss defenders.

Kerrigan moved forward coming towards the huge Protoss tower that was sending out a distress call, "There it is Sarah" Jim spoke through the link which Kerrigan smiled as she and her Roaches began to destroy it, "The First Spire is under attack, Warriors defend it" The Executor stated as Stalkers blinked around Kerrigan's group while Zealots ran to the Stalkers before charging towards Kerrigan and her Roaches with their Psi Blades activated.

Kerrigan aimed her rifle at the leg of a Zealot and shot it which the Zealot stopped its charge that Kerrigan sent a force of Psionic energy to push him back, The Roaches stopped attacking the Spire and turned their attention at the Protoss attacking them and their Queen, they attacked the Zealots that charged at Kerrigan using their acid spit to melt their armour disabling the ability of the armour to teleport the wearer to safety if they're in danger of death, Kerrigan quickly took to shooting the Stalkers while her Roaches dealt with the Zealots. Kerrigan summoned a Psionic Storm over the Stalkers making sure that she put more energy into it so that it was still powerful after the cold wind reduced its strength, the stormed scorched the Stalkers to death as her Roaches finished off the Zealots not without losing 7 in the process.

Kerrigan resumed her attack on the Spire taking a few moments before it was coming down from the combination of her bullets and her Roach's acid spit, the huge tower began to collapse falling to the ground in pieces, "The First Spire has fallen, Protect the last until the signal reaches Shakuras" the Executor announced over the battlefield, "Shakuras, so that's where the signal is trying to reach" Kerrigan thought as she then saw something dropping from the sky landing around her, "Darling these should replace any Roaches you've lost" Jim spoke as Kerrigan saw replacement Roaches and two Hunter Killers move out of the craters from the organic drop pods. The new Roaches joined the other Roaches while the Hunter Killers stood behind Kerrigan, "Thanks Jim" Kerrigan mentally said to him as she ordered a Drone to come to her location and start to mutate into a hatchery.

KERRIGAN'S LEVIATHAN

Jim felt the signal weaken and as well the strength was reduced "Now its going to take more time before the signal gets to where it is heading" Jim thought as he wondered where the signal was going to, "Jim the signal that the Protoss are sending is heading to Shakuras" Kerrigan mentally said which Jim suddenly knew what would happen if word of this gets to Artanis, Kerrigan's chance of at least opening room for a trial of forgiveness with the Protoss would be forever gone. "I hate to say this" Jim thought as what he was going to say would hurt him inside forever he was about to speak when Kerrigan spoke first, "Jim I know you hate doing this, but it's our only choice if we make sure no one leaves this moon then Shakuras will never know what happened" Kerrigan said hoping to raise the mood of Jim up but as well for him to agree with her, If they were to protect Lilith they would need to reunite the Swarm which also meant dealing with anyone getting in their way.

Jim understood what she said after seeing the reasoning behind her words "I guess your right darling" Jim spoke through the link before it was shut down, as Kerrigan needed to move quickly or else the extra time she got from destroying the first tower would be wasted.

KALDIR'S BATTLEFIELD

Kerrigan moved from the new Zerg nest that was finished "It's time" Kerrigan thought as her Roaches and her hunter killer guards moved with her, thoughts were going through her mind as she moved closer to the last Spire "If I do this I'm probably going to give the Protoss more reason to hate me" Kerrigan thought as she shot at a oncoming Zealot in the lower chest causing the armour to teleported it to safety. While her zerg attacked other Protoss as they were slowly being forced back to the range of their photon cannons, Kerrigan looked at the number of Photon cannons and the amount of Stalkers behind them, She then saw that three pylons were powering the Photon cannons, "The Pylons are evenly placed, if I was to take them out then those cannons will be un powered" Kerrigan thought but then had an idea as she saw one of her roaches die.

She extracted the acid gland from the Roach's body using her mind and charged it with her psionic energy, she launched it towards one of the pylons making it land on it causing to explode releasing the acid all over the pylon and a few Stalkers which then the psionic electricity began lashing out damaging the Stalkers and destroying the Pylon, All the photon Cannons that were being powered by the pylon were in inactive "I don't have time to waste here" Kerrigan thought as she then used two more Roaches who were just barely alive and did the same thing with the first Acid gland. The last two pylons were destroyed just like the first which left Kerrigan an opening "Flash Freeze!" Izsha announced again giving Kerrigan an even greater advantage, "Prefect" Kerrigan said as her zerg destroyed the Protoss defenders along with the photon Cannons, before moving on to the last Spire as the Flash freeze ended.

Making her way to the Spire Kerrigan could see the last of the defenders readying themselves for her, Kerrigan's Roaches moved forwards attacking the pylons first so that the photon cannon get disabled, while her Hunter Killer guards attacked Zealots trying to charge in close to her Kerrigan aimed her rifle at the Stalkers shooting the robotic legs causing it to start limping either giving it the chance to retreat or keep fighting, but the glory of dying in battle instilled it to keep fighting. The Roaches finished dealing with the pylons and the Zealots before going onto the Spire, the Hunter Killers joined in shooting their spine at the structure and Kerrigan shooting it.

After a few minutes it came down falling apart like the first spire Kerrigan took a second to catch her breath before she heard the voice of the Executor, "The Spires have fallen retreat" he announced to his warriors when Kerrigan had something to say "No one gets out alive Izsha no one" Kerrigan said strongly.

5 HOURS LATER KERRIGAN'S LEVIATHAN

Jim knew when Kerrigan had finished taking down the last Spire as the signal was gone, He looked over to the window to see Overlords approaching from Kaldir he turned his head to see Lilith waking up from her nap, "Sweetie Mommy is back" Jim said and could see Lilith's eyes fully open as she darted up from the Bed towards him, "Mommy's back" Lilith said in joy as Jim picked her up and walked out of the chamber.

OVERLORD'S NEST

Kerrigan walked out of the Overlord that transported her from Kaldir with a female Protoss prisoner behind her being restrained by a hydralisks, "Why don't you just kill me now?" the Protoss voiced with anger Kerrigan just looked at her with a stare "I don't want to do that" Kerrigan answered, "Well I will be dead soon enough you will eventually kill me" the Protoss said again which this infuriated Kerrigan "Listen here, I may have done things to your people which a unforgivable, and they have begun to at least rethink their views of me but I needed the Brood on this planet so I can protect those important to me" Kerrigan responded almost shouting using her telepathy, "Protect those important to you?" the Protoss woman was shocked that the Queen of blades would think of others then herself but then she had heard the Council's sessions of how much Kerrigan has changed but all she heard about was the two sides one being against her change and the other for her change.

Both of them then turned their heads to the door to hear the sounds of a child, Kerrigan's face and mood instantly changed into the loving mother of her daughter and the lover of her man, "Mommy" Lilith leaped out of her father's arms landing on the creep floor and then ran to her mother who kneeled down to hug her, "See Sweetie i came back" Kerrigan said making Lilith smile as she stood up holding Lilith in her arms while Jim walked towards them, "A child, the Queen of Blades has a daughter?, is that even possible?" the protoss thought before she saw the man hug Kerrigan and then kiss her on the lips, "I'm happy that I'm back here with you and Lilith, Jim" Kerrigan said as she got right into the kiss between them.

A supernova went off in the Protoss woman's mind the man hugging and kissing the Queen of Blades was James Raynor exalted hero and close friend of the Protoss, Every protoss knew of James Raynor when he helped take down the Overmind with Tassadar and Zeratul, she had seen images of him but now with the same Zerg dreadlocks as the Queen of Blades and her daughter along with the zerg yellow eye colour with that ring of brown in the centre, "Did she corrupt him? And since when did he have psionic powers?" the protoss woman thought as she knew that James Raynor had no Psionic abilities so how did he get some.

"Your James Raynor are you not?" she spoke cautiously as she stared at him still hugging Kerrigan along with their daughter, Jim turned to look at the Protoss prisoner but then looked back at Kerrigan, "It's alright Jim, I just want to know more about the protoss" Kerrigan mentally told him which he felt relieved as he turned his attention back to the Protoss woman, "Yes I am" Jim answered the Protoss's question, "Did she corrupt you?" she asked him which she got a irritated stare back from Jim, "No I chose this because if I didn't then I would be dead and my daughter would be fatherless and Sarah would only have her" Jim answered but then had a question his own he wanted to asked the protoss, "What is your name?" Jim asked which the protoss woman took a moment to think but then came to a conclusion, "My name is Lassara" she answered back.

"Come on Jim I'm tired and cold, let me spend some time with you and our daughter" Kerrigan smiling at him and holding Lilith in her arms giving her the same smile, Lilith was overjoyed but became curious at the Protoss woman that her mother had brought with her, she was about to try and probe the Protoss woman's mind when her mother caught her "Lilith Eve Kerrigan what have I told you about reading peoples mind!" Kerrigan said sounding like she was reminding her, "That it is wrong and it invades their privacy" Lilith answered remembering after a few days since she was born Kerrigan had taught her manners when using her psionic powers to read minds before she could read minds, "Yeah and there are things you might find that your too young to know about" Kerrigan thought.

Kerrigan was still smiling as she walked with Jim out of the Overlord's nesting chamber and back to their own chamber, while the Hydralisk restraining Lassara escorted her to a prison room.

3 HOURS LATER KING AND QUEEN'S CHAMBER

Lilith had been put to sleep inside the Pod after having some playing with her mother and father, while Kerrigan lied on the bed in the arms of Jim, "Feels like you were encased in ice" Jim said as he could feel that Kerrigan's suit was like ice, "It was alright the thought of coming back here into your arms and our daughter gave me all the warmth I needed to stay down there" Kerrigan responded smiling, "But what about now?" Jim asked curious "Now it's even better" Kerrigan answered as she embraced Jim closer loving each second of it while she gave a small yawn, "Every time I go out I always want to come back here to you and Lilith" Kerrigan said giving a passionate kiss to Jim which lasted a good minute before they pulled away, "Goodnight Jim" Kerrigan said happily as she looked into his eyes "Goodnight Sarah" Jim answered with just as much happiness.
