A.N.// must have really kept you guys waiting! Well I was sitting in my
dorm and decided to write a new chapter. But please do review! I need
feedback from my readers as it helps me write. Also I was wondering if you
have seen the final episode Erica, as that is when Prince appears to say
that he is the greeter of the dead. But thank you for all the reviews, you
are my biggest inspiration right now!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Eyes shot open after a long night of tossing and turning to the vicious nightmares that haunted her. Long slender legs draped over the edge of the bed letting her neatly shaped feet touch the warm floors of her room in the new Lexx. A hand whipped away a batch of left over tears from her eyes leaving them just puffy and red. With a small sigh she stood and walked towards the bridge. As much as she hated to admit it, Stanley's company was actually comforting! 790, despite his unfinished words due to the way the new Lexx brought him back, was almost comforting in his rambling. Her feet tingled as she walked bare foot onto the bridge. Stanley sat on the captain's pedestal rubbing his forehead and holding his hat in the other hand. He looked up when he heard the pitter patter of Xev's feet against the cold floor.
"Xev! How are you feeling?" He asked not really knowing what to say, as he was slightly confused himself. After the brief meeting with Prince all he got was a nod and then a quick exit. He supposed that the crafty slimy 'man' was going to make some devious task that him and Xev would have to go through, along with Stanley owing him something. It had only been moments before that he had been told to head to a planet called Furmento. He did not like the sound of what ever that was.
"Fine..." She said quietly as she pattered onto the oddly silent bridge of the Lexx. She momentarily looked at the view screen to see only stars and darkness in the distance. She sighed and gracefully plopped herself down next to Stanley. She wasn't in the mood to talk, but the presence and the voices of another kept her mind from wondering off.
He sighed deeply, though more subconsiouly then anything. He knew she was not 'fine', that in fact she was hurting. Hurting with a deep pain that no human could have explained. The cluster lizard in her must have kept her from wanting to share every emotion she felt. Then again he didn't know anything about her upbringing, so he was not in the position to pass judgment. His mouth opened, as he was just about to tell her what happened then thought better of it. If Prince was only playing games then he would not want her hopes up so they could be smashed into pieces once more. Instead he placed his hat back on his head and stood up, standing on the captain's pedestal. "Can you see anything yet Lexx?" He asked peering out the view window.
There was a silence for a moment in time then the echoing young voice of the bug ship. "No Stanley, but I can feel something ahead of me..." The voice trailed off into silence again.
A tingling feeling, more of a sensation then a tingling, surged through his body as the Lexx's words ended. He shivered lightly, feeling as if a cold chill had just crept down his spine. He looked to Xev to see her shiver as well. His eye's then shot to 790's, he was just continuing to rant and sing his poems off into space.
"...Stanley..." Xev said, her eyes glued to the weird planet that had just appeared on the screen. It swirled with purple and blue and pink spirals that seemed to change in the sun's glow. Though, it wasn't a sun that gave the tiny planet light, but a moon like object surprizinly smaller then the planet itself. It looked almost magical, like a globe of shimmering crystals. Something you would want to reach out and touch just to feel the silky smooth texture run past your fingers. The tingle they felt must have been some sort of cloaking around the planets orbit path, as the planet its self was definitely something that would stand out in the darkness of space.
Stanley turned and his mouth dropped at the site, "oh boy..." He wasn't sure what to do or say. This must be the planet though, as fragile and glass like as it looked. "Lexx take us down and land..." He ordered and watched the swirls that seemed to hypnotize your body and mind. He just hoped he had not lead them straight into a trap set up by the devious worm that Prince was.
"As you command Stanley..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The putter of the moth was soft, like a humming tune. They were very quiet as Stanley flew the little bug around the sparkling planet in search of... well anything really. The grounds seemed to be made of blown glass or colourful ice. Deciding to get a better look at their surroundings he set the moth down carefully and both Xev and him stepped out onto the weird surface. Their was a clink of the connecting boots to the material that sounded like ice... yet was not slippery at all. He scratched his head in curiosity and walked forwards to see if he could find what ever it was that Prince had sent them here for. Giant Mountains of the crystal substance surrounded clearing where they had landed. It just looked like the kind of place where you would put something special.
Her blue eyes looked all over the area as her boots made their tiny clicking noise against the ground. Hips swayed as she walked in her normal love slave stance. She didn't know why they were here but she did know that it was very beautiful. She wondered if this planet was inhabited. As her mind raced with a million questions all at once a figure seemed to creep quietly along the surface. Between the stigmatized growths of crystal they slunk, towards the tall transformed blonde. She didn't even notice the presence until a pair of hands grabbed a hold of her. The sudden grab at her startled her and caused her to jump. Flipping around in a quick spin she released the grip and came face to face with a man. They had neatly trimmed hair that swirled in every direction, like the patterns of the planet surface. His eyes were a stunning silver and his skin was tinted golden. "Who are you?" She shouted and stepped back once, it just wasn't normal for people to go sneaking about grabbing others.
"Beg my pardon miss, I was just so stunned by your beauty!" The man said and his eyes stared her over. It was kind of a curious look, more then a perverted violating one. Like he had never seen a female before or something.
Her eyebrow arched with more curiosity. "No problem just wondering why you were sneaking up behind me..." She said and scanned the boy over her self. He was an interesting character that was for sure. Hair of the same length flying in every which direction, eyes unlike anything she had seen before, and a skin tone of a mineral. It was truly interesting to see.
"I've never seen anything like you before..." The boy said more to himself then to her. His head craned to the side to see that she was in fact standing there and it was not just a dream.
"Uh... Do you live here?" Was all she could say at this moment. It was true that not many had ever seen a love slave before but she doubted he knew what she was meant to be.
"Hmm?" He was pulled away from his train of thought and stared back up at her. "Oh! Yes I do, I live with my family in my tribe not far from here!" He stated with a smile then had a thought. "You should come to my village, they would be happy to meet you!"
She thought about it for a moment not knowing whether to trust this boy or not. 'Great fun, go to a whole town of them to get stared at...' Though Stanley had his reasons for being here and maybe this was it. "Well... alright but let me find Stanley first!" She said walking past him and back to the place they had left to moth.
"There is another?" The boy asked quickly following her at a steady pace.
"Yes, his name is Stanley." She retorted hole heartily. This seemed to be taking her mind off of her heartache at the moment.
"His eh?" He said to him self and went off into a ramble of his own thoughts that Xev decided to ignore.
"Yes, his!" She repeated to back up what she had said, not really knowing what he meant.
For a few moment they walked in silence until they came upon the moth and Stanley who was looking worried. Then again Stanley was always looking worried so it was nothing new.
"For heavens sake Xev! Where on earth have you been?" Stanley flustered out in his panicked voice.
"I've been on this planet, not earth! And I was looking around when I came across this little..." She stopped and looked around to see the boy was no longer following her. In fact he was no where to be seen. "Hmm that's funny, could have sworn..." She then realized that she had not even heard him walking when he was walking with her. The locals must have learned to walked quietly so as not to be heard. It was creepy thought though, to have a bunch of spiky haired golden people sneaking around. Then again she didn't even know if they all looked like that one boy.
"This is no time to be playing around! We don't know where we are and this place could be dangerous!" Stanley sputtered, going off on his usual routine of freaking out when he didn't need to.
"Oh Stanley calm down will you. If this place was trouble then don't you think it would have already shown its self?" Xev said placing her hands on her hips and stared straight at her flustered friend.
"Your right Xev, maybe I'm just over..." Before he could finish a galley of multicolored cords flew over their heads and tightened around their arms. "...Reacted..." He finished his sentence as he tried to fight off the binding but to no avail as one of the people that look similar to the first boy knocked him over the head. His eyes rolled back and he felt the cold flooring before complete darkness.
Xev struggled as well and had managed to get her bindings off only to receive four more as well as the original. It was odd because she could not rip them like she could normal cords and roping. This had to be some special kind, perhaps made of the same stuff as the flooring. The many people forced her to her knees and she looked around at all the coloured faces, silver eyes, and spiky hair do's. She recognized one of the boys as the one that had been walking with her not even moments ago. A strong glare was given in his direction and she could see him quiver under it.
"Good work men..." Came the strong voice of a tall man who walked out and patted the boy she knew on the head. "Don't be afraid Torlen! Yes, I women have powerful emotions but she can do nothing to you." He said looking over at Xev who was still glaring like crazy. "Take them both to the Temple, we are going to have a ceremony..." He said menacingly.
Xev didn't like the sound of that and tried to fight more but there were just to many of them that all seemed to have a rope on her. She finally gave in and let them lead her along. Though she gave each one of them a glare and watch them shiver with slight fear. It was a funny feeling to have such a strong effect one people with just one set of face. She watched as they drag a limp and unconscious Stanley away. Her thoughts then again returned to Kai... Were he here then they would both be saved right about now! She would give her thanks and he would say something about how the dead don't need thanks or something along those lines. She suddenly wished that what ever they were going to do that it might end up in death so she could join him in the after life.

A.N.// Well, sorry that took so long. Thank you for being so patient with me as I go to a boarding school and it is hard to find time to update. Hope you all like it, and yes I left a cliffhanger but do not despair as I have already started on the next chapter! I would like to know it I should add a lemon scene though, give me your thoughts.
