The Mother of all Nietzcheans.
Well, that might explain why she goes all rubber-kneed whenever an alpha Uber smiles at her.
Ah, that ain't fair. So Beka's got crappy taste in men. Lots of women have that problem. They never go for the really great guys like me.
And where does Rhade get off being all sick like? He should be honored to have Beka as a… however many greats she is. Guess Drago only kept the mean, tough-as-nails, laugh-in-the-face-of-danger parts of her DNA, because he sure as hell didn't keep the good parts. He didn't give them the part of her that took me in and kicked that loser, Bobby, out. He didn't keep the part of her that stands by you in a fight, no matter what. And he didn't give them her flying skills, neither. Everyone knows that there isn't a Nietzchean out there who flies even half as well as Beka Valentine.
Mother of all Nietzcheans. I can't hold that against her. It wasn't her fault, she can't help it if the one weakness she has is judging a pretty face. I think she's just always looking for love but doesn't want to bother with the commitment. She picks guys who won't stick around so she doesn't have to fear being left behind. At least, that's what I would say if I were a psychiatrist or something. So she's the unwilling mother of a race of millions of scum-sucking psychopaths! She didn't ask for it.
Still, it's something to think about, ain't it? All those times that the Ubers tried to kill us, if they had succeeded, then they would have just blinked out of existence. There wouldn't have been any Nietzcheans without Beka. The Commonwealth wouldn't have fallen without the Nietzcheans. Earth would still be a great place, I wouldn't be susceptible to every germ that winked at me and Dylan would have married Sarah and lived happily ever after. Of course, then no one would have killed Beka and Drago would have found her and there would have been Nietzcheans and all that would have started again. Time travel's funny that way.
It's not her fault. It really isn't.
Still… you can't help but think.
