Chapter 5
As Beka came back to command, she saw Rhade in her usual spot.
"Brace for slipstream." came Rhade's voice.
"Exiting slipstream." He said again after a few minutes.
Te imposter Genites were nowhere to be found.
"That's…odd. A little too convenient." Dylan said.
"Ya think?" Harper said.
Dylan just shot him a look.
"Captain, we are getting a message from The Brilliance of Truth and The Dances of the Sun." Rommie said. He could have sworn he heard her mutter 'stupid flashy names'.
"Put it through."
"Captain, I thought we were going to actually fight someone." Captain Maria Santaun of the Sun asked.
"Yes captain, where are the ships?" Captain James Keog asked.
"They are…" right as Dylan was about to answer, they were fired upon.
"Happy?! You got your ships!" Beka yelled.
"Evasive maneuvers." Dylan ordered.
The Sun and Truth engaged the enemy ships as Andromeda made her way to Odekyrke.
"Captain, a message is coming in from the senator."
The image of Talia popped up. She was an elderly gray haired woman.
"Hello Captain. I am in a shuttle currently on course to you position. As soon as we dock, go to Slipstream. We do not want the Marheagans to get in our way."
Beka, Rhade noted, had gone rigid at the sight of her mother. Now, she looked angry.
"Beka?" Rhade asked. She snapped her head around to look at him.He gave her a meaningful look and she physically relaxed a bit.
"Senator's shuttle will be here in 28 seconds."
"Prepare to take them In"
Talia walked into the Andromeda and surveyed the interior.
"You can go." She told the ship's pilot and walked to Command, meeting Dylan halfway.
"Sorry, it takes awhile to get down there." Dylan apologized. Talial's piercing eyes never changed as she said.
"It is alright. Now take me to Command."
Dylan raised his eyebrows but said "Folow me."
As the reached Command, the doors slid silently open.
Rhade Beka and Harper turned around.
"Hello Beka." Talia said calmly.
Beka looked like she was ready to kill which, Rhade reminded himself, she probably was.
"Beka." Rhade said warningly.
"Beka answer me child." Talia sadi coldly.
"Go to hell bitch." Beka said as she walked past her and out of the room.
