Trials of a c'tarl c'tarl
By:DarkKnightSephiroth
Chapter1: Poison It was a pretty average day at Starwind & Hawking Everybody was doing their usual thing Jim was typing away at his computer Melfina was cooking Sazuka was sipping her tea. And Gene was plastered on the couch staring at the TV. The only one not doing her usual thing was Aisha she was in her room staring out the window sighing occasionally. She had a deep feeling of emptiness that wouldn't go away and she couldn't figure out what it was. It had bothered her since shortly after she become a member of the outlawstar crew though she usually played it off and it hadn't really effected her much lately it had been getting to her maybe it was the lack of good battles maybe she was just hungry she didn't know but she wanted to figure it out She got dressed and decided she was going to go out but as she headed out she bumped into Gene "Ah just the c'tarl c'tarl I wanted to see!" he said "What is it Gene?" She replied trying not to let her mood show in her voice. "We've got a job to do and you and I are going in alone its on a jungle planet called Fusia. The Fusians have a problem with some smugglers/poachers/thieves. Apparently this one group of guys it out to do it all the Fusians have tried to catch them themselves but everyone they've sent has been killed and sent back in little pieces so they've come to us." Gene explained "Why only you and me?" She asked "Aparently the fusians aren't too keen on the idea of letting too many off worlders romp around their planet and will only allow 2 of us to go I picked you because you're the best one for this Job being a c'tarl c'tarl and all you should be able to get around the jungles pretty easily and you'd be able to figure out where they are and such plus your immortality makes you the perfect pointman or in this case pointwoman." He explained "So you coming or not?" he asked waiting on her reply. "What's it pay?" "100 million wong" "I'm in"
A day later they were standing on the surface of Fusia it was a lush green planet with the cities only barely distinguishable from the forests and jungles. The Fusians themselves looked like something out of Planet of the Apes with their gorilla like frames.Shortly after their arrival a tall fusian about 6'5 feet aproched them and he looked directly at Gene. "You gene Starwind?" he asked "Yea that's me this is my partner Aisha Clan Clan." The fusian looked at Aisha "Ah a C'tarl C'tarl. Wise choice of partners I hear they fight well and have a love of battle also I hear they're seemingly immortal." The he leaned close to gene and whispered "I also hear they make good mates and are insatiable in the bedroom." Gene looked a bit surprised "Oh uh I think you got the wrong idea Aisha and I aren't.." He trailed off once he saw the look of understanding on the mans face and Aisha looked confused "Wha? We aren't what?" She asked completely lost as to what was going on. "Nothing Aisha don't worry about it." Gene replied starting to walk "So you got a name?" He asked referring to the Fusian. "Oh sorry about that how rude of me My names Mojimbo." "So Mojimbo where do we start our search for these criminals?" Gene asked. "well the thing is we're not sure where they are exactly we do know their hide out is somewhere in the jungle and we have an idea that its in this region but beyond that not much is known we don't even know for certain how many there are but at least 3 are confirmed." Mojimbo answered. "Great..so we're looking for needles in one Gigantic haystack?" Aisha asked "Not quite.There's an important shipment coming in soon it's a counteractant we use to keep the plants here from completely overuning the cities however if used improperly it has the properties to become either a poison gas or a liquid poison. We're almost certain they'll go after it and when they do you'll follow them all the way back to whatever snake hole they came out of." Mojimbo explained. "Great plan. When's the shipment due? " Gene asked "Tonight at 8:00" Mojibo answered "We'll be ready." Aisha said.
That night Gene and Aisha spied on the shipment it was stolen just as expected they followed the crooks to a small section of shacks about 10-15 miles from the city. The crooks themselves weren't Fusians however and appeared to be of different races one looked human one looked like a c'tarl c'tarl and another looked like a creature Gene had never seen before. A few moments later the shipment was unloaded and a few others came out of the shacks this made for a total of seven crooks.
"No wonder all their guys never make it back there's a pretty good number of these guys." Gene whispered to Aisha. "Gene I'm going in okay?" Aisha asked starting to move but waiting for his answer before taking off. "No not yet Aisha we don't know if that's all of them or what kind of weapons they have or even if there are booby traps." Gene said grabbing her arm. "So? How much will that matter? I can take them the only one we'll have to worry about is the C'tarl C'tarl. Aside from him though nothing else matters they can have almost any gun in the universe and not be able to hurt me." She whispered. "Yea but what if they do have one of those guns? Or what if there's a poison booby trap? Your body won't be able to save you if you get poisoned you know." He answered. "Oh please since when do you worry so much about me? Or worry at all for that matter? I'm going in." She said heading toward the back of a shack to get into position. "Fine go then stupid C'tarl C'tarl never listens who said I cared what happens to you anyway?" He snapped she stopped for a moment a bit hurt by his words. And then a thought came to her had gene picked her because he really didn't care? Knowing this was a dangerous mission and all? 'No.gene wouldn't do that to me.e didn't mean that.did he?' she thought. And was caught off guard when she was spotted
"HEY! YOU THERE!" Came the voice of the c'tarl c'tarl "What're you doing here?!" 'uh oh.' She thought 'oh well here goes' "I'm Here to stop you guys! That's what I'm doing here!" She yelled and charged into battle she the other 6 crooks shot at her but the bullets did pretty much nothing and she took them out with ease but in this time the C'tarl C'tarl had loaded a gun and when she turned around she was shot in the stomach she felt a horrible Pain and letting out a horrible screech she fell Gene heard her and knew she was in trouble and rushed there just in time to hear..
"Ugh!. What did you shoot me with?!" She screamed. "A special bullet coated with the Chemicals we stole it's a counteractant so your usual rapid healing is having a bit of a hard time kicking in and in the mean time the poison will seep into your system and you will die there is only one cure for this toxin and the plant is very rare and hard to find and it's only in this Jungle though with that wound good luck searching for it!" He said laughing and ran off taking what he could carry with him once he was gone Gene popped out from his position and ran immediately to Aisha
"Aisha! You ok?" He asked looking concerned at the wound and the blood flowing from it.
"DO I LOOK OKAY?!" She Yelled at him. "Get me to the damn hospital!" She said still yelling Gene picked her up carefully and carried her in his arms all the way back to the city they'd come from He got to the hospital and they quickly admitted Aisha in she was patched up as best as the doctors could.
"Mr. Starwind I'm afraid there's a problem Your girlfriend here is poisoned with a toxin that we don't have the antidote for the plant can only be found in 1 part of the jungle and it's a very dangerous part."
"firstly doc AISHA IS NOT MY GIRL!!" He yelled wondering why everyone kept thinking that though he figured it was because he was traveling alone with her.
"Well fine whatever you say."
"Look I don't care what you think fine she's my girl whatever I don't care just tell me where to get the antidote!" Gene yelled for once actually worried about Aisha she was in a position where she could actually die and that was something Gene couldn't see her doing. And in his mind he knew if she did it'd be his fault because of what he'd said. He saw her hesitate after he said it and that was when she was caught off guard and the C'tarl C'tarl had started loading the gun.
"Okay okay.calm down..it grows in a cave about 20 miles east of here. But it's very difficult to get because there's a pair of guardian protecting the cave and on top of that the plant itself has to be in a certain stage of maturity to be effective as an antidote."
All Gene needed to hear was where the antidote was the rest of it pretty much took a backseat for the time being he went into Aisha room and picked her up
"What are you doing?!"
"I'm taking her with me I can give her the antidote faster that way. There isn't any special way it has to be given is there?" Gene asked
"no but."
"That's all I need to hear now I'm going." Gene said starting to walk out with Aisha in his arms.
"You'd better hurray! I estimate she's only got an hour! Maybe less! When you find the plant apply it to her wound! And mash some of it up and make a liquid for her to drink that should cure her!" The doctor yelled after Gene as he left.
"Thanks" Gene said as he exited he got on the street and the first thing he did was steal a car he needed to get Aisha there a quickly as possible. "g..ene." Aisha said weakly trying to talk "shhh.Aisha just rest I'll get the antidote don't you worry your pretty little head." He said and she smiled he'd called her pretty.that was the first time he'd ever used the word in relation to her. "t..thank..you gene.." She said she was sweating and blood had soaked her bandages. About three fourths of the way to the cave the road ended cut off by plant growth. "Shit! Guess I'll have to walk it." He said getting out and going around to the other side of the car to get her he put her on his back and started walking when he reached the cave he realized 40 minutes had gone by he didn't have a whole lot of time left and Aisha was getting worse by the minute. Then a rumbling came from the cave. Two large Lion looking creatures came out of the cave apparently they'd claimed it as their home and didn't like gene snooping around outside. "Sorry" He said and pulled out his castor gun "But I've got to get in that cave to save her life and I'll gladly go through you" He put in a number 9 and blasted one as it leaped it was hit directly but survived the blast and still managed to hit genes arm with one of its claws "What the hell are you guys?!" He ran around dodging them and firing shells but nothing seemed to work and then after about 10 minutes of this gene got down to his last resort "FINE BE LIKE THAT AND NOT DIE! I'll SEND YOU SOMEWHERE ELSE THEN!" He yelled and fired a number 13 he hit one and it was instantly sucking into the vortex then Gene fired another one and got rid of the second. As he headed into the Cave he was Zapped by both of them the cost of using the shells had been paid and now Gene looked like he was the one about to die but his determination not to let Aisha die carried him he got to the plants he removed her bandages and put one on her that looked like it was matured and then got a second one and ground it into a cup and poured some water from a canteen into it then mixed it he looked at her and saw she had passed out. "Aisha..Aisha?..No you can't die on me now! And especially not after all that shit I just went through to save you! You owe me damn it! I paid the price of TWO number 13's to save you! You'd better live you weakling!" He yelled. "Who you callin weak." She said softly and coughed. "Good you're still alive I should be in time then.here drink this." He said putting the cup to her mouth and tilting it slowly so she could drink it. After wards she layed down and rested on the ground Gene was glad she should be okay now and now he needed to rest.the drain from the number 13's was finally too much for him and he passed out. He fell directly on Aisha though he didn't land that hard since he was already leaning over her before he passed out.
When he awoke he found Aisha was staring at him she didn't say anything but just stared. And for awhile he stared back into her eyes there was something different about them something special.then suddenly he knew what would happen next he knew from previous experiences with women and he got up slowly. "ug."He groaned "how long have I been out?" "Well for at least an 45 minutes.that I've been conscious anyway." She answered. Her endless stare now broken. "We gotta get outta here." Gene said after awhile "Can you stand?" he asked her. She shook her head "I have enough strength to talk but that's about it." She answered. Gene picked her up in his arms and carried her out she put her arms around his neck and curled up close to him "Thank you Gene for saving my life. I didn't think you cared so much."
"I don't" Gene said trying to play it off "I just don't want you dieing because of me that's all." He said and she smirked knowing he was lying he cared and she knew it and that was important to her. On the way back gene discovered the car was gone probably stolen by one of the crooks most likely th c'tarl c'tarl that got away. The mere thought of him pissed gene off he almost killed Aisha and gene was going to make sure if he saw him again he'd pay. Halfway back to the City Aisha found the strength to walk after seeing gene was getting really tired from carrying her she wanted to stay just the way she was but she didn't want to tire Gene out if she could walk.
"Gene I think I can walk now" she said. And he set her down she still kept one arm around him pretending to be using him as a brace knowing full well she could walk fine. After awhile of silence she spoke up suddenly. "Gene." She started unsure of herself. "Yea?" He asked waiting to see what she'd say. "Kiss me." Gene stopped when she said that. "What?" He asked "Can you say that again I don't think I heard you right." He said. "You heard me I want you to kiss me right here right now I wanted you to back in the cave but you got up instead so now I'm asking." She said sighing afterwards glad to have finally said it. "Uh.wow.Aisha..I.." Gene Stammered. "What? Afraid Melfinas going to show up out of nowhere and say "Oh Gene what are you doing?" she said mockingly. "Hey Mel doesn't run me!" He snapped. "So then what are you afraid of? That you'll like it?" She said taunting him. "I'm not afraid of anything especially not you!" he said "Then what are you waiting for?" She asked still taunting him. He gave in and kissed her and almost immediately she had her arms around him and they were kissing passionately. Neither of them knew how long it lasted but eventually they broke the kiss. And both took a good breath after words. The the stood there staring at each other. "wow." Was all Aisha could say. "Satisfied now?" Gene asked. "For now." She answered grinning. "Hey don't go thinking this means we're gonna be together or anything cuz I didn't feel a thing." He said starting to walk again "Oh and I know you can walk. So your doing it on your own from now on." He added. "Oh sure.but I know you did feel something Gene like my Butt." She said giggling and walking along side him. "Oh shut up Aisha." He said and got silent. Aisha had figured out what that emptiness she'd felt had been before it was loneliness though now after that kiss she didn't feel it anymore she was sure she wanted to be with Gene now. And She was pretty sure Gene wanted her but he was resisting it probably because of Mel. She figured. They walked on in silence for awhile before a explosion could be heard and a cloud of green gas could be seen wafting over the trees. "Uh oh it's the poision! That guy must have set of a poison gas bomb let get out of here!" Gene said turning around Aisha turned picked him up and ran at a speed Gene never knew she could reach she didn't stop until she felt they were a good distance from the poison.
"Thanks Aisha." Gene said looking at her. "no problem I owe you. You went through a lot of trouble to save me. And I swear to you that you won't regret it." She said already longing to kiss him again. Gene needed to think he knew she wanted him now. And he knew he wanted her as well but what about Mel? He thought he couldn't just leave her like that.but wait. Did mel even think of him as being hers? Did she even understand the concept of a boyfriend? He needed to get back to the outlaw star he needed to talk to her and he needed some more equipment so he could kill the bastard who just took out a city and almost killed Aisha. But they were stuck for the time being they didn't know how long the poison lasted before it dissipated or how close the next city was or even if they were being watched or followed. They didn't have anywhere to go no way off the planet since there was oviously no where for the outlaw star to land and no way they could be seen from the ship through all the trees they'd just have to make due for the time being...But how?
End Chapt1
Okay! So what'd you think? Doesn't it make perfect sense to put gene and Aisha together after all that? And plus they're STILL stuck together too. And probably will be for awhile Next chapter : Chapter2: Survivor - More explosions more poison more death more hunting.
Chapter1: Poison It was a pretty average day at Starwind & Hawking Everybody was doing their usual thing Jim was typing away at his computer Melfina was cooking Sazuka was sipping her tea.

So your doing it on your own from now on." He added. "Oh sure.but I know you did feel something Gene like my Butt." She said giggling and walking along side him. "Oh shut up Aisha." He said and got silent. Aisha had figured out what that emptiness she'd felt had been before it was loneliness though now after that kiss she didn't feel it anymore she was sure she wanted to be with Gene now. And She was pretty sure Gene wanted her but he was resisting it probably because of Mel. She figured. They walked on in silence for awhile before a explosion could be heard and a cloud of green gas could be seen wafting over the trees. "Uh oh it's the poision! That guy must have set of a poison gas bomb let get out of here!" Gene said turning around Aisha turned picked him up and ran at a speed Gene never knew she could reach she didn't stop until she felt they were a good distance from the poison.
"Thanks Aisha." Gene said looking at her. "no problem I owe you. You went through a lot of trouble to save me. And I swear to you that you won't regret it." She said already longing to kiss him again. Gene needed to think he knew she wanted him now. And he knew he wanted her as well but what about Mel? He thought he couldn't just leave her like that.but wait. Did mel even think of him as being hers? Did she even understand the concept of a boyfriend? He needed to get back to the outlaw star he needed to talk to her and he needed some more equipment so he could kill the bastard who just took out a city and almost killed Aisha. But they were stuck for the time being they didn't know how long the poison lasted before it dissipated or how close the next city was or even if they were being watched or followed. They didn't have anywhere to go no way off the planet since there was oviously no where for the outlaw star to land and no way they could be seen from the ship through all the trees they'd just have to make due for the time being...But how?
End Chapt1
Okay! So what'd you think? Doesn't it make perfect sense to put gene and Aisha together after all that? And plus they're STILL stuck together too. And probably will be for awhile Next chapter : Chapter2: Survivor - More explosions more poison more death more hunting.
