Anonymous: Oh. My. Dearest. Jebus. Why are you still reading this then? No I mean I still love you and such but...just..here. This it whats going on:

Amy is a human from Earth that found Kirk dying and being a curious little urchin brought him home. She then finds out that a higher presence calling herself 'The Goddess' wants her to go and join Kirk. This happens and the Goddess explains that the grox are her only hope of escaping an eternal prison in the center of the galaxy. She created them in hope that they will ascend and free her. Yet the grox empire falls apart due to economical reasons and splits into nine separate empires, Kirk's being the largest. And Amy is meant to unite them again.

Here dearie.

'You aren't seeping.' Sighed Kirk as Amy flipped around for the fifteenth time making a sizable portion of the duvet slide of him.
'Obviously I'm not.' She retorted trying to make out his glowing eyes in the darkness of the room. She could just see the bright flash of his teeth as he grinned, probably subconsciously.
'Have I...done anything?" He asked closing his eyes.
'No, of curse not. Why would you even ask that?"
She heard Kirk hold back a laugh, 'I'm not sure, I just like to see you annoyed.' There was a soft shuffle and suddenly she was right against him. 'Its that Veara isn't it?'

'How do you know?'
Kirk chuckled again, 'Its kind of obvious. There is nothing that really freaks you out, but ever since she appeared you have a mad rage attack when ever you see her.'
'I do not!'
'Well maybe I'm exaggerating but you're not really found of her are you? Don't get too upset through Neider of us are.'

'So its good that I just handed those wallisians over to her?' Amy asked feeling the loss in her voice.
'Well yes, its a good idea to keep her happy' Kirk explained in a much brighter tone completely missing out on the whispering theme of the night, 'We didn't need them anymore and what she does to them is up to he-' He suddenly stopped talking as Amy turned her head away.
'I'm sorry...' He whispered, his voice became muffled as he hid his head in the sheets that hid the invisible blush.

'Its okay, Its not like its your fault.' She sighed feeling him squeeze her harder.
'There is nothing you can do now, they would have died anyway Amy. And Veara is just going to make the same thing happen.' He muttered, his voice getting quieter as he slowly drifted off 'I can't stand watching you worry...' he stopped speaking and Amy felt his breathing level out.
Shuffling closer to him she made herself more comfortable. Sleep seemed really attractive right now.

Closing her eyes she tried to think what she usually did when she couldn't fall asleep. A brief memory of something that people did came to her mind... it was counting something...something that lives there.
Pigs? No. They were white and jumped over fences...
Sheep!
That's it, how could she ever forget about counting sheep?

She imagined the fluffy animals standing in a herd on one side of an old wooden rickety fence. One by one the sheep jumped over the wood, making mocking baaaing noises as Amy kept count of them.
10: Still awake
20: Drifting off
30: Everything around her was a haze.
Just before she drifted off she heard Kirk whimper in his sleep. He often did that, she never asked him why.

Jut as she closed her eyes she felt a powerful pull somewhere at the edge of her unconsciousness. Just before she completely switched off she recognized is as the Goddess's own pull. Soon the confusing, swirling energy completely enveloped her, making her thoughts cloudy.

Suddenly she was in her room again, with her alarm clock beeping in her ear. Slowly, she forced her eyelids open and tried to look around. The room was flooded with morning light and there was a bus just passing in the road in front of her house.
'Amy! Are you awake yet?' Came her mother's voice from downstairs. But...it had an odd deep drone to it. And it wasn't her mother's voice at all. Amy looked down at herself to find herself dressed in her purple and black uniform. It looked strangely inappropriate for her human body.
Slowly she got out of bed and made her way through the messy floor and into the corridor. She slowly headed down the stairs. It was odd through, there was no smell of anything around, the house was odorless. I guess that that is what you would get in a dream...
As she stepped into the sun drenched kitchen.

'Here you are...' The voice came from a tall woman leaning against the worktop. She was looking away so Amy couldn't see her face. But her boneless, elegant stance completely betrayed her identity. 'You can't be scared Amy, you have to deal with what is going to happen.' Said the Goddess turning towards her. Even in human form most of her was blurry, only her brilliant blue eyes remained in focus.

'Umm... what do you mean?" Amy asked trying to squint through the haze that was surrounding her.
The Goddess gave her a perfect, saw toothed grin. 'I mean that you will encounter something today that will make you loose your faith in me. And I don't want you to do that.'

Amy was even more confused than before 'What?"
The Goddess sighed 'Never mind, I just want you to remember that, can you do that?'
'I guess so.' The girl agreed stepping closer 'How come you are telling me this in a dream?"
'No reason at all, I just assumed that it would be a nice change after the usual way I give you information.' The Goddess explained sloping a little bit more 'Its nice to see what memories other creatures hold.'
'So you can go into anyone's mind?"
'Yes, you could say that. This is your memory of the house that day when I first spoke to you. While you remember your room the rest of the house is...'
'...Your memory' Amy finished for her.

'That's right!' Praised the creature smiling. She stopped when the light coming through the window slowly started to fade. 'Well, I guess that its our time to part. I don't want you to be all worn out tomorrow.'
'Wait! Why don't you just tell me what is going to happen before it happens? Can't you just stop it?' Amy called when the whole room was starting to shift out of focus.
'That's the problem, I will be powerless to stop it.' The tall alien said turning around and heading for the back door, 'And I want you to co-operate.' Were her last words as her form disintegrated into the gloom.

She was woken up by Brecca, again.
'Rise and shine you just missed the most amazing announcement ever!' Came her amazingly cheery voice from the room.
'Whaaa?" Amy mumbled slowly lifting herself up from the bed, only to get hit by a perfectly aimed pillow.
'We're getting a day off!'
'What?' Amy exclaimed suddenly wide awake.
'The whole research facility is down due to Kirk, Civet and Vautre transmitting the last of the data.

'I thought that you were handling the economy now.'
'I am. I finished it early this morning...'

'So wait, the whole place is kind of disabled?' Amy asked sliding of her bed.
'You could say that.' Chirruped Brecca 'So what do you want to do?'
'Umm...' Thought Amy 'What do you usually do on a day like this?'
'We just mop around the place eating.' The other grox answered beaming down at her 'but most of us just sleep in.'

'Oh how exiting.' Amy said walking towards the door. 'I prefer the eating part of it.'
'Great!'Said Brecca following her.

As they came out onto the main corridor there seemed to be nothing missing. The grox were hurrying back and forth as always, getting on with their daily tasks.
'Where will we be going?' Amy asked as they started heading in the direction of the research facility.
'Nowhere special, I just want you to see something.' Said the smaller grox with a bright grin 'I'm sure that you will like it.

They didn't speak to each other for the whole journey to the lab. Since the corridor was too loud, and the Amy was still lost in her own thoughts. What was that thing that the Goddess was warning her about? Maybe she shouldn't go to wherever Brecca was taking her?
But it was too late since the second-in-command was already typing the code in to open the giant glass door. Amy watched as they slid open with a loud beep revealing s perfectly illuminated corridor.

'Can I at least get a hint of where we are going?' She asked jokingly.
'I would but it would spoil the whole surprise, so I wont.' Came a reply as they trotted down into the depths of the facility.

'Wow...It really is empty.' Amy announced after a few minutes. Surely there was no other grox in sight. The doors on eider side of them were all closed and even the sound of the humming machinery had died down. Amy had only seen this place empty once, when she first became a grox. Back then the pace was completely new to her, and she wasn't used to so many grox being absent all at the same time. She shivered at the perfection of the tunnel. There was something eerie about the way none if the lights were changing their dimness. There was no flaw in the color of the walls.

'Amy are you feeling okay?' She heard Brecca ask behind her, 'Is there something wrong?' She asked again putting a hand on her shoulder.
'I'm fine...I think.' Amy slowly replied feeling blood pump in her head 'I just thought of something. And it um... scared me.'
Brecca smiled knowingly at her 'Aww. You're scared of being alone aren't you?'
'Umm... Yes, how did you know?' Amy asked suspiciously turning to look at the other grox.
'Its kind of normal with all of us... I mean the grox' Brecca quoted starting to take slow steps down the corridor 'our species is very weak and fragile, and we would never survive on out own. So we like to always be together, it makes us feel safe.' She paused in her lecture to allow for Amy to gather her thoughts, when the empress nodded she carried on ; 'You just feel the absence of others that's all. That is what's making you act up, your instinct. Isn't it amazing how the universe made us like that?'

'Yes it is.' Agreed Amy 'But... How come you lost some of your instincts, you had all lost your sexual orientation because there was no point in liking the opposite gender.'
Brecca laughed as they turned down a much narrower corridor that she had never been down before. 'Yes but we didn't need that. But if the grox didn't want to stick together we would have never survived. Even now this simple and primitive bond holds us together.

'Oh that's kind of...amazing.' Amy commented as Brecca nodded in agreement 'Are you sure that you don't want to carry on with the research facility?' She asked.
'No, not at all. This is just everyday knowledge. I'm sure that you will pick up on this soon.' Saying this she suddenly stopped making Amy walk into her. 'Here we are!' She announced reaching out for the code pad next to a door that looked exactly the same as the others. 'Yesterday I realized how little you had seen of this galaxy. I mean that there is a whole bunch of wonderful sights out there for you to see and all you did was sit behind a desk as soon as you got here.'
'It wasn't my fault!' Amy argued 'I was the one who was told to work. In fact it was you who told me to-'
'Fine! Fine! Calm down!' Brecca called 'I just wanted you to see something nice that's all.' As she said that the door in form of them slowly slid open, revealing a large dark hall.

Without another word Amy walked through the entrance to find herself in a medium sized room with the usual metal walls and floor. One side of the room was adored with loads of twinkling machinery and the other side was... not there. Instead there was the vacuum of space, with no window to separate them from it. As Amy stepped closer she realized that there was really nothing there. In fact they were perfectly exposed to the darkness of space.

Taking in a deep breath she approached the edge of the ledge. She half expected a pull of the vacuum to drag her outside. But nothing like this happened. Instead she was left face to face with the oddest, and most complicated thing she had ever seen in her life. Sure she had seen the stars many times before, but somehow seeing them like this seemed much more... real. She wasn't sure how the glass could take away the beauty of space, but it surely did.
Amy heard herself gasped as Brecca followed her inside, the door closing behind them.
'Do you like it?' She asked coming to stand beside her.
'Well of course! Its wonderful... but how are we not getting sucked into space?' Amy said squinting at the area between her nose and the space trying to answer the question herself.

'This isn't just empty space.' The other grox said reaching her bionic palm out in front of her, to Amy's surprise the air in front of them wobbled 'This is an archeon energy shield protecting us from the outside. This place is usually used as an observatory, there is a program equipped to use this shield as a telescope.' With that she tapped the energy screen with her hand and suddenly the area she touched seemed to zoom in on a random small star blazing light years away from them.
'Oh gosh I never knew that you could even make something like that.' Amy mumbled pressing her own hand against the shield too. It was strangely cold and liquid to the touch, and it seemed to attract her hand with some odd magnetic pull. 'How long does it see for?'
Brecca smiled perching down on one of the tables on by the computerized wall. 'For as far as you want it too, but please keep it in the range of our galaxy. It gets a little bit troubled when you look too far.'
'That's fine by me!' Amy answered tapping on the next star on the screen.

Spode knows how much both of them spent observing the stars. Amy was mostly gasping or wowing as Brecca told her about the different star systems and the different races that lived in the parts of the galaxy. The solar systems were occupied by the most advanced, and sometimes the simplest life forms. Each planet held a different kind of life, and each space stage race had a bit of their being speeding somewhere through the galaxy. Of course like Amy later learned, she was only shown a tiny thousandth of the different areas of space. It wasn't long before she decided to ask 'Can I have a look at the wallisians?'
Brecca didn't seem surprised by her question. 'Of course, I'm surprised that you didn't ask sooner. I assumed it would be the first thing that you wanted to see when you got here.'

Amy just remained silent as the other grox walked back into the depths of the room to type something in on the holographic screen before coming back. 'Were lucky that we are facing in the right direction. Mind you their empire id huge, the biggest in the galaxy. But they only inhabit one side of the galaxy, which is always useful in locating them.' Saying that she tapped on a random spot and zoomed in on a solar system that looked exactly like all the other ones Amy had seen.

'This is the star Pyles, and the rest is the Pyles System. And on its orbit there is the planet Thar.' She explained pointing at an odd planet that looked similar to the rest, very much like earth. Or at least that's what Amy thought 'This is where the wallisians came from.'
'So there is more planets that they own?' The girl asked when Brecca zoomed out.
'Yes, like I said they have a large amount of colonies in our galaxy. This is why they pose such a big threat to us. They stand apart from the other species...'
'...About that.' Amy interrupted 'Yesterday when Veara was given custody of the wallisians she mentioned something about them being mutated and not being deserving to be alive.'
'That is exactly what I was going to tell you.' Brecca told her sitting down on the ground, folding her hands on her lap. Amy sat down next to her and tried to follow her friends eyes, which were gazing deep into the depths of space. 'The wallisians, or tharians are in fact mutated. You see a long time ago they used to look much different then they do now.'
'What do you mean?'
Brecca turned to look at her. For a minute there seemed to be another depth in her organic black eye, as if she could see something that Amy couldn't.
'They used to be different, physically and mentally. It was a very long time ago but we keep data from millions of years ago. They used to be a dangerous, violent race of monsters that spread their rage across the galaxy. They not only attacked us, but other species too. They even looked different, they were creepy things with scaly skin and eye stalks.' She lectured. 'It all changed when an object dropped onto the planet Thar, and then they all started evolving, and so did their technology. Their personalities changed too, and they started to make alliances with the empires they were in conflict with.'
'How is that even possible? How can something just make a whole species evolve?' Amy asked.
'No one is sure about that. It is one thing that really unnerving about them.' Brecca finished smiling.

'Wow. This is all really odd.' Amy mumbled. 'Do you at least know where the object thingy came from?'

Brecca just shrugged in response. 'No one knows. But that isn't the most interesting thing going on right now.'
'And what's that?"
'You.'

There was a long silence as both of them stared at the stars. Amy had no idea where the other grox was heading with this, but there seemed to be a great reason behind the statement.
'What is so interesting about me?" She decided to say eventually.
'You were brought here because my emperor took you as his mate.' Brecca said 'A different species. As a mate.' She repeated trying to make the point.
'I know. Even I think that's weird. I have no idea why that happened I just wanted to help him...'
'And what about that Yagoda you were moaning about? Is she really real?" Brecca butted in.
'Yes she is.' Amy admitted with a deep sigh 'The truth is... that I wished that I never helped Kirk.' She said gesturing with her bionic hand' I hate this Brecca. I don't want to do this anymore, I don't want to have to battle and kill and have babies and...'
'Hold on there!' Brecca exclaimed grabbing her moving hand 'There is a reason behind what you are doing isn't there?'

When Amy slowly nodded she let her hand go. 'What is it then?'
Amy waited for the Goddess to silence her again, yet she left her alone without a word. When Brecca raised her eyebrow she slowly exhaled and said 'The Goddess, Yagoda... whatever... wants me to join all of the empires together so we can ascend and...'
'Ascend?' Brecca exclaimed suddenly exited 'This is what we are working on...what all of the empires are working on. This is the data that is being transmitted today. Each empire is working on this...'
'I assumed so...'
Brecca smiled 'I just knew that there was something amazing about you. You are just so out of the ordinary... I always thought that I was the only one here but then you came and I found someone that I wasn't ashamed to be around.'

'I thought exactly the same thing.'

Amy felt the Goddess watching them as they sat in the gentle gloom. With only an invisible wall of energy separating them form the universe she felt as if she was sitting at the edge of the world itself. That was stupid of course, how could she think that when the whole galaxy was stretching out before her? It was odd, like sitting on top of the world itself.

She was about to close her eyes when she felt the Goddess stir. She seemed to be focusing on something, bracing for something.
Before Amy could ask what was going on a shadow passed before her eyes... Next to her Brecca tensed emitting a short gasp.

And his voice.

'Hello there empress...'

How did he get here?

Why now?

Amy jumped up to her feet and turned to face Roku Azero.

The wallisian was standing a short distance away from them, with his feathery wings elongating the shadow behind him. The captain flashed a brilliant smile and stepped closer into the light, his talons clinking against the metallic floor. His twinkling eyes didn't leave hers for the whole time. He was dressed in the same attire like last time. The odd unnatural neatness of his lightweight armor gave him a photo shopped kind of appearance.

Amy was shocked the she had forgotten the odd feel of his dominating aura. Or how stupidly perfect his physical features were...
As Amy stared she became aware that a tense silence had fallen in the room.
Slowly, the captain's coral lips twisted into a chilling knowing smile.

Swallowing quietly Amy decided to speak up first.
'How did you get here?' She demanded (or hoped that it sounded demanding). Trying not to hesitate, she also stepped forwards which was probably a stupid thing to do. Since she had just glimpsed the impressive plasma cannon strapped to the belt around the captain's waist.

'I flew.' Roku answered simply 'To come and get you.' He added reaching his humanoid hand out to her in a beckoning motion. Obviously his approach wasn't meant to be as scary as he intended it to be. She realized that there seemed to be black hidden points in the wrist guards of the wallisian's armor. This completely spoiled the approachable stance he was assuming to take.
Amy took a step back from his outstretched hand 'And why do you want to take me? I thought that you were never coming back.'
Roku laughed his eerie musical laugh 'I thought I wasn't... But you have nothing to fear, I won't cause you any harm.' His voice was cut short by an enormous bang that rang out somewhere from another side of the facility. A second after that Amy felt the floor vibrate with the impact of what ever just caused damage to the spaceship.

One of Roku's eyebrows rose as he pretended to be surprised by her reaction 'I suspected that I'd need some time to drag you out of here. So I fired off a little distraction.'
'And you really expect me to just come with you?' Amy argued starting to her the terror in her voice.
The wallisian reached for his belt bringing out a small device that Amy recognized straight away. 'Maybe not now but under some influence you will surely obey me.' He said pointing the device at her.
Amy heard a whimper behind her. Remembering that Brecca was still in the room she turned around to tend to her friend.

Brecca was leaning on the transparent shield, her eyes wide with horror, hatred and surprise. Amy assumed that she was in the actual shock of a fully-armed wallisian space captain appearing out of nowhere. Her hands were still clutching each other as she hurriedly nodded at the creature behind Amy.

'Better be careful, I don't think that he understands the aspect of only attacking the enemy when they are facing you.' Hinted the Goddess.
Amy was not in the mood for this 'What in the hell is going on! Why is he here?' She screamed at the dark presence.
The Goddess giggled mischievously 'Nothing much, he is just confused that's all...'

With those words the girl felt a sudden weight on the top part of her arm. With a hiss she spun around to find Roku right in front of her. His hand squeezed her arm almost painfully as his steely eyes burned with a deep complex mix of emotions that she was scared to comprehend.
He was so close... she could distinguish every single item hanging from his belt. She could even smell him.

Out of the corner of her eye she spotted Brecca scramble away (She didn't blame her).
Roku leaned in close 'Between you and me-'

'Unhand her wallisian fiend!' Came Kirk's aristocratic voice from the other side of the room.

Ignoring the painful hold on her arm Amy turned to spot her mate pointing his own fire arm at the creature holding her. The grox emperor's cape was gone making him look seemingly ordinary. His ears were pointing backwards and pressed close to his head in the show of pure anger.
'You have no right to handle her that way. She is in no way involved in our war. Or so says the galactic law.'

Roku laughed pulling Amy close to him 'The galactic law? And since when do you answer to that Kirk?

'I never did.' Kirk spat stalking closer 'But you do.' He stopped lowering his firearm 'But you are welcome to take me instead of her if that is what suits you.'
'Awww... how brave.' Came Roku's cynical response 'It is very tempting but no.'
Kirk glowered at him 'And what is the point of this then? What do you want?'

'This is not about wealth you stupid little gremlin. Don't you realize what's going on? Something more powerful than our stupid skirmish. Something more powerful than all of us. I will stop it. By the power invested in me by the New Tharian Council, it is my duty to destroy all evil within Aeron. Not to long ago, you stole our world's most brilliant scientist... and you need to know now, that taking any living creature, and doing what you did to him, is considered a unforgivable violation of galactic law.'

'Once again, we do not obey your stupid rules.'

'I'm afraid that you have to.'

'And what are you proposing to do?'

Amy felt Roku stir behind her, there was a click and another gasp that most certainly came from Brecca. Kirk gave her a panicky stare stepping even closer. Amy turned to look up at Roku who was now pointing another oddly shaped gun-like device at Brecca who was cowering in the corner of the room.

(Amy felt the Goddess touch him. Her tentacles wrapped his body and mind in her hypnotic embrace.
'God you are really simple aren't you dear?' She whispered into his ear.
'What is even the point of feeling anything for these things? Don't you see what they are a parasite?' She asked again holding him closer.
Amy listened in as Roku's mind struggled. His bright, brilliant state of mind turned to face the dark presence with no fear whats so ever.
'They are beings like me, it would be against my function to hurt them for no reason,' Answered Roku's subconsciousness.

Yagoda giggled again, 'Don't you want to avenge Harko? She ripped his feathers out Roku, it made him cry.'
'I am aware of that.'
'How can you even face her without ripping her apart? She was seduced by his pain. She laughed when raw energy was ran through his body.'
Roku remained silent.
'I wouldn't let something like that live anymore. Just think of what is going through her head right now... Their minds are so twisted its unspeakable. Think of all the things she did to Harko. Kill her Roku, free her of all of her sorrows.')

'If you do not apply to these rules that have you ever heard of an old tribal rule? Its called an eye for an eye.' Roku growled squeezing Amy's arm even tighter. His eyes suddenly blazed with a hatred that scared her. Brecca whimpered in the corner as she backed into the wall full of machinery.

'What do you think you are do-' Kirk called braking into a dash.
'Stay back vermin.' The wallisian barked spinning around to point his armed hand at Kirk. There was a short bang as a bullet was fired straight at the male grox. He dodged it with ease, skidding to halt between Roku and Brecca. Sadly the fire arm he was holing cluttered out of his hands, he hissed as he looked helplessly between Brecca and Roku.

The space captain just ignored him 'I had just about had enough of you.' He stated monotonously.

And than he shot her. Twice.
The two bullets made sickening sounds as they sunk into the Brecca's left arm.
Amy watched as her friend helplessly slid down against the wall as pain took over her. Her eyes rolled back before focusing on them again, her right hand went gripped her wound as the purple material around it became dark burgundy.

'I still haven't lost the aim.' Said the wallisian tilting his head sideways to look down at Amy. His hand let her arm go.
And she with a strangled cry she ran towards Brecca who was watching them all patiently.

'Brecca! For Spode's sake thank god its only your arm!'
The female grox smiled up at her dreamily 'Yes, they are full of venom. Its okay through, its my time to go.'
'What? No!' Amy cried grabbing for her hand that she squeezed back weakly.
'Don't cry... I mean there is no point since I'm going to die anyway...' she whispered smiling wearily 'Just please carry on with your mission, don't give up or kill yourself or something.'
'Please don't go...'
Brecca laughed and winced at the same time 'Look on the bright side. At least I'll get to know what happens after we die. Isn't that awesome?' Her dark eyes went hazy and her bionic one darkened as if she was asleep 'No seriously... just please.' She stopped to take a breath 'Don't give up on what you have. You have such power, you can do anything.'
Amy smiled as she leaned down to kiss her cheeks. The female grox's eyes slowly closed...
'Ill see you again one day Amy.'
' But You don't deserve this!'
'I know.'

And she went.

As tears flowed down her cheeks Amy started to pay attention to the conversation going on behind her.

"But there's something more. It took me quite a bit of research to figure it out. So many theories stacked inside of libraries. Very few of them fully fit with the cryptic message that Amy gave me. 'she controls me... she came from another universe...' I finally know what I'm dealing with. It's not the Grox." Said Roku.

"Who is it then?" Kirk growled back.

"Have you heard of Ascension?" Roku asked. Amy tried to turn around but the Goddess stopped her, this wasn't her argument for now.

'Calm down...'
'She is dead, how am I meant to calm down?'

"A process by which the physical body is left behind. It's an idea present in many religions... all throughout existence. The idea of being able to leave your universe. What is your opinion on the validity of such claims... Kirk?" He carried on. Amy heard the clinking of talons on metal get closer to her. Suddenly two hands lifter her to her feet. There was no point in fighting now.

The Goddess was angry. She would re-gain her, but not now.

He had her.

When Kirk didn't respond her laughed;"I have very little knowledge of these lifeforms. Very little at all. But one thing can be said in my mind. They may be immortal, but that doesn't mean they can't be harmed."

Helplessly Amy gazed at Kirk, who returned the stare.

/Don't worry. He'll hand you back/

/she is dead/

/I know. At least you're fine/

/How do you know that I'll come back?/

/Because you have to. We mate for life/

Numbly Kirk asked 'What are you talking about?'

Roku grinned maniacally 'This' he said taking our another device. 'A psionic displacer. Psionic energy, which is the power of mind. All ascended creatures will be made of that.' Without another word he pressed a button on the device.

'Ouch!' Squealed the Goddess. Amy felt her get ripped away from her state of mind. Blindly she searched for her but the area was empty.

That did it.

'What the fuck did you just do?' She screamed smashing her fist against Roku's chest which she discovered was rock hard.
He just smiled perfectly grabbing her wrists with his larger hands 'Just as I thought, she is always in touch with you isn't she?'
Amy just screamed trying to hit him again only causing the space captain to laugh.

'I think that we should leave now...' He purred clicking his fingers. A dark shadow suddenly appeared behind the archeon shield. It took Amy a few seconds to distinguish the spaceship from the sky.

Roku stood straight, his wonderful features reflected in the polished tinted glass of the spaceship's windows. Amy gave Kirk a last pleading gaze. He looked defeated, as he stood under the point of Roku's pulse cannon.

'Ascend.'

And they were gone.

Yeah! This is where stuff gets complicated. I'll be going back to the two-week thing as well so you guys don't have to wait anymore...

Soo... umm... reviews?
