Ch2 Nine Dead

A figure, drenched with the blood of others, stood in front of a guard.

"You…" The guard growled at the dark figure, who didn't speak, but only flung an Irken's arm into the only light of the room. It grew black, dark. The guard pulled out a ray gun , shot and missed the shadow.

He herd a window shatter. He sighed almost relieved thinking it had left.

But he felt a hand creep across his forehead, and glass to his throat. With one movement blood ran freely from his neck, drenching the other's hand and his uniform.

He was dropped to the floor still gasping for air.

The killer rustled threw a cupboard, Finally finding a old primitive like dagger. "I've missed this thing. Coulda used it the latest ones." A female voice run out into the darkness with a sigh. The Irken made their way back over to the corpse, who was still barely alive.

They cut him down the front ripping out his most essential organs sprawling them on the floor into a weird design, of no significance.

Then took the corpse's blood and printed a "P" on the wall, his head pointed towards.

Then taking the dagger carving a "P" into the forehead.

"Ahh, so many dead, and I am only after one." growled the killer. They thought how many were dead by now…

"VAL! ANOTHER ONE!" A soldier cried running to Val. She sat in alone in a room full of controls, and lights flashed. But the lights were off.

"What!?" She said in surprise.

"Ma'am another went down, this time a "P" was carved in his head."

Val has sent soldier's and guards out to find and capture Crysta, behind Purple's back. She was worried for him, and Crysta. She was being pulled in 2 directions. Each dead Irken elite had a letter carved in their head.

"How many is it now? 9?" she asked now standing.

"Yes. All mutilated in the same fashion. Val, the letters in order of victims T-A-M-L-I-H-Y-G-P…"
"What?" Val looked at the soldier.

"It's a puzzle. If they are arranged they read 'ALMIGHTY P'. If it's Crysta she's already half way hear, If this is were your sure she's headed."

"Damn it! Yes I'm sure! It's only been 3 weeks." Val said losing herself in thought. 'How is she getting here so quickly.' she thought sliding back into the chair. "How many more Crysta? How many before you've had your fill? Only until you get Purple?" Val said to herself the soldier stood quietly awaiting her order. Val started to wish she hadn't sent any one. Just to have her come straight to Purple and have a trap set for when she arrived.

"THAT'S IT!!" She yelled. The soldier jump at her sudden outburst.

"Yes?" he said.

"Tell elites to just keep there eye's peeled for her. There is no way they'll kill her if they attack. From what it seems they only one's that have died are the ones who attacked right?" She said, the soldier nodded. "Then get everyone here ready, she'll be coming soon. When she gets here attack her! But don't kill her. That's up to Purple.'

"Oh a trap then?"

Val nodded.

"Yes ma'am!!" the soldier said in a salute and ran off to form this trap.

Val sat back down and thought what Purple might want to do if Crysta was indeed caught. She also wondered how the hell Crysta got loose from her bounds that held her for so many years. She almost looked forward to seeing her friend. She knew Crysta wouldn't look the same. Probably severely skinny, looking like death was at her door.
