Chapter 12: Two Warriors Reunite.
A/N: IM BAACCKK!!!! I was quite busy these last weeks with the anime north convention and all. But know I have returned to give you more chapters. Updates will definitely be slower since I sold my CPU. Yet I will try to make BI-weekly updates as much as I can. Enjoy! .
A throbbing pain pulsed through Keral's head. His eyes opened as the pain from the headache bore through his brain. The first sight he saw was a wooden roof. Birds were humming a happy tune outside and dogs barked happily. He pushed himself off the leaf-padded floor and sat with his knees crossed. He looked around the cabin seeing it's primitive outskirts. Leaves covered most of the floor. Tree stumps stood out from the floor serving as seats to a crude looking table. Small clay pots were in a corner of the room and some wooden spears lay beside them. A bow and a quiver of arrows was hung over the pots.
"Where the hell am I?" Keral thought out loud.
"You are in a small village of humans." A low whispery female voice answered behind him.
Keral jumped up with surprise and turned around. A woman was sitting down on a tree stump right beside the bed. She had athletic features, but she didn't look over 5"6'. She was wearing some a fur robe around her. Her hair was the color of a deep red like a crimson ruby. She had this wooden cane held in her right hand. Yet her most noticeable feature were her eyes. The pupil and iris in the eye were just ... not there. What used to be that pupil was now a Very light shade of sky blue.
"Who the hell are you?" Keral asked in a surprised tone.
"Funny thing. I should be asking you the same thing protoss!" She said with a chuckle.
"Well if this is a terran colony than explain this. Why is everything made out of wood?" Keral asked.
"I'll explain to you in a second. First off I'd like to at least know your name." The woman said.
"If you must know my name is Keral Zailinbar. And you are?"
"My name is Rebecca Hallinworth. And as for your first question. This is not a terran colony." Rebecca said as she stood up.
"Well if this isn't a terran colony what is it?"
"It's a undeveloped species. They may look terran but their not."
"Huh... OK. Then why are they not terran? What's so different with them?"
"They're sexual organs."
"Oh."
"Care for a description?"
"Tempting but... I'll skip."
"These people don't even know about flight yet. So when you fell from that escape pod in the sky they thought you came from the heavens."
"Well if that's the case. How come you know so much? And why are you here?"
"Well first off I'm a terran. My escape pod crashed on this planet 2 years ago. When the people first saw me they thought I was some sort of god. And my eyes were severely injured in the crash. And now I'm this villages guardian."
"Guardian? Like the police or something?"
"Sort of. You see every village around here have a guardian. We guardians are the most elite fighters in the villages. Our duty is to go to a village in need if it requires assistance's."
"I see. So what do we do know?"
"First of all I'm going to show you around this village."
"Sounds fair to me."
So both of them started to walk out the door towards the starry night.
Elsewhere's on the planet
"Alright I want wraith's to start scouting this planet while in cloak! Got it?" Raynor ordered to his first officer.
"Aye sir!" The officer responded as he started a wide fleet announcement. "Attention all wraith pilots. Prepare for a takeoff. I repeat. Prepare for a takeoff. Your orders are to scout that planet surface while cloaked. I repeat. While cloaked."
"Let's hope we don't meet the zerg." Raynor whispered under his breath.
Back to Keral
After over an hour of walking Keral and Rebecca stopped at the peak of a hill. He had seen all of the village. Well if you consider a village to be 7 huts and 1 cave with a total population of 27.
"Well I can't argue about pollution here." Keral said with a chuckle.
Rebecca lowered her self and sat down on the cool grass.
"That's the one good thing about here. It's quite mellow around these parts. I mean there is nothing to do." Rebecca said as she laid her wooden cane by her side.
"Your probably right." Keral said as he looked up at the starry sky.
Just then a huge gust of wind started to blow almost throwing Keral off his feet. A circle was forming into a grass patch not far away.
"What the he...?" Keral said as he shielded his eyes.
When the wind was over Keral lowered his arm and stared as the wraith started to uncloak.
"What is that Keral? A wraith, scout or something else?" Rebecca said as she jumped to her feet.
"It's a wraith. And it has Raynor's Raiders sign on the side." Keral said with an ecstatic voice.
The cockpit window pulled back and the pilot looked in the direction of Keral.
"Need a lift?" he said.
Raynor's POV
"We got reports coming in sir!" The officer said.
"Alright put them on audio." Raynor said.
"Wraith group Delta-2 here. Nothing important in our territory." Said a voice on the intercom.
"Wraith group Alpha-4 here. Report of 2 humanoid villages. Repeat. 2 humanoid villages here." Said a different voice.
"Wraith Red-6 requesting Captain Raynor on intercom please. I repeat. Wraith Red-6 requesting Captain Raynor please." Said a wraith pilot on the intercom.
"Captain Raynor here." Raynor said.
"Please come to the Hyperion's cargo bay sir. I have someone who wants to see ASAP." The pilot said.
"Roger that." Raynor responded. He pointed to two security marines. "Come with me guys.
And so he and the marines went to the cargo bay. They got there in about 2 minutes and when the door opened Raynor saw a joyous sight. There was a pilot standing by a wraith with a woman holding a cane beside him. But most importantly in front of him stood his friend: Keral. Raynor had an ear-to- ear grin as tears started to form in his eyes.
"Told you I'd be back." Keral said as he laid his hand on Raynor's shoulder.
"And I'm glad." Raynor said as he did the same.
