"If you refer to me as a blue bitch one more time, Rygel, I will make you regret it," she said evenly while holding up Rygel's chin or where his chin would have been if he had one. Then she walked away her clothes flowing down the corridor as Rygel stared. He then floated backwards huffing.
"A vague and meaningless threat. Huff! It takes a lot more than that. Huff. I am Rygel XVI, Dominar of..."
That's when he bumped into D'Argo who shoved him away and growled, "watch where you're going."
"Not my fault," Rygel stammered trying to maintain his dignity. "You oversized species need to watch where you put your bulky, overgrown, and very unattractive posteriors! You and that blue bitch don't own this ship!"
D'Argo just waved his hand in dismissal and walked away. Down the corridor Zhaan stopped. She blinked slowly and breathed. When she turned. As expected, Rygel was gone.
The table was loaded with enough food for several large and hungry people, or one small and greedy Dominar. A shadow fell on the table as Rygel was stuffing his face.
"Enjoying your food, Rygel?" Zhaan asked in her soporific voice.
Rygel looked down at his plate. Had it tasted funny? Poisoned? Drugged?
"What did you do? What did you put in my food?"
He reacted a moment too late. He tried to regurgitate and nearly choked when his small head was pressed between Zhaan's big hands with her thumbs under his chin area. He tried but failed to yell for help. After some chanting, Zhaan let him go and walked away. For a moment Rygel was stunned and speechless.
What? Was that it? He felt just fine.
"Why is he saying that?" Chiana asked as she entered command.
It was another emergency with everyone rushing to command. Rygel arrived behind Chiana saying, "Blue bitch blue bitch blue bitch."
Everyone stared.
"It's all he can say, apparently," Aeryn said as she came in following him.
"Are you kidding me?" John asked.
"No. All down the corridor it was blue bitch blue bitch blue bitch, non stop." Chiana complained.
"It's very aggravating, " D'Argo complained as Rygel was still saying it.
"Do you want to hear what he's actually saying?" John asked.
"No," D'Argo answered.
Rygel couldn't get that damn Peacekeeper to pay any attention to him. Chiana was equally useless. Now they were all staring at him, talking. What were they saying? "Blue bitch blue bitch blue bitch," was all he could hear.
The end
