YOUR FLOWING BLOOD WILL BE MY GLORY YOUR SKULL WILL BECOME MY HONOUR

Location somewhere in the galaxy, stuck between to two locked doors on the Iron Year science vessel

God I've never felt so happy in the whole of my life. I never thought I'd be sitting here right now in Jeuki's arms. I never thought what I wanted and dreamed would come to pass. May be I was looking too much at the negative side of things its one of those things that happens when everything goes so terribly wrong. When the world around you comes crashing down. You tend to forget that good things can come of it. You loose sight on what's really important and get too messed up in those foolish notions, because your brains trying to cope with what's going on. When I think about it, it's so stupid and foolish but I guess everyone does it from time to time. I have to say a Yautja kiss is really a different experience. I had no idea the mandibles could be used in that way. I mean I've seen them rip out corks, bend spoons. Hack in to food making it easier for the inner mouth to eat it. Yet I never realized they could be used in such a gentle manner. The touch was so soft.

I guess it just proves that even the sharpest of teeth can be used in a way that shows deep affection. I mean we forget sometimes that even the most vicious looking canines can be used in the softest way. Mother crocodiles at least the ones I've seen on film. Carry there young to the water edge via putting them in her mouth so gently that there's not a scratch. Personally I don't find Jeuki's tusks in anyway frightening I just used to think that they were razor sharp. I never knew they could be used in such a beautiful manner. I don't really want to leave these doors in all honesty. I could sit here forever and watch the world blow apart around me. I know it wouldn't be right though. There are so many people who are dieing and so many more who will die. The hunt isn't over ether it won't be over until all the hunters are board our vessel and are free from this rust buckets iron cage. This place won't be a colony anymore if something's not done it'll be a graveyard a cold graveyard floating in space.

No living thing will survive apart from the hard meat that will wait patently for another ship to come. I don't even want to envision how tragic the loss of a second ship would be if they overrun both. Then another docks with them, it's a horrible though. I guess I've made up my mind I will help them because I just can't do nothing. I can't ignore what's happening to them any longer, I've been where they're standing. It's just echoing in my mind over and over the images of Callisto and how we never had a chance because no one gave it to as. When I was there I'd have given anything for someone to give me warning. Or to have someone unlock the weapon bays so I could have a gun. Emma slowly moved her hand slowly over Jeuki's lower chest. She moved her fingers in a gentle motion feeling him move his clawed hand through her hair. Jeuki tapped his upper right mandible he heard something bang against the locked door, causing it to shake. He watched as it shook again, the hunters on the other side had started their onslaught.

He turned sitting up slightly, watching it shake violently again, he slowly stood up gently pulling Emma to her feet. He turned slightly. "I told you they wouldn't leave as." Emma smiled easing up her hand running down his lower mandibles. "We ought to really help them." Jeuki looked at the door. "No I don't think we should." Emma turned slightly. "Why not?" Jeuki pulled back as the long bolt closing the door spilt with the force as the door was hit again. "Because there doing just fine with out as." Emma stepped back as the part of lock came flying off landing near her feet. She looked down at it. "Your right I don't think they need as at all." Jeuki watched as the door was smashed open. Erisoki roared in anger as the door gave way. He moved through it only to stop in surprise, Jeuki was holding the little ooman Emma in a very different manner to normal. He watched as she her hand moved over his mandibles. He shook his head Jeuki really was full of surprises. Adarmi looked at the scene before nodding and turning away out of respect. Idosoi growled aloud. "An ooman and Yautja being mates, that is so disgusting." Idosoi turned only to feel an agonizing pain as Erisoki hit him around the back of the helmet. He pulled away avoiding Erisoki's angered gaze as the elder snarled at him.

Erisoki moved slowly forward watching as Jeuki put his helmet back on. "I'm glad you two finally worked out what needed to be worked out." Jeuki turned slightly eyeing Idosoi. "The ooman is my mate now! If any one has an issue with that then you can take it up with me!" Adarmi turned slightly. "I have no issues with that." He looked at Idosoi. "You don't have an issue with that do you Idosoi?" Idosoi growled turning sharply. "I have no issue." Erisoki watched as the younger hunters started to move forward. He watched as Jeuki and Emma came forward. He patted Jeuki's shoulder. "Don't concern yourself with Idosoi he will open up to this new way of thinking in time." Jeuki nodded taking Emma's hand. "I don't care for his way of thinking I used to think like him once." He turned looking at Emma as she pulled her site lens down. "I just know now that, that way of thinking can leave you very narrow minded." Erisoki leaned over patting Emma's back. "We are hunters we can never be narrow minded."

Lucy pulled back as the computer conceal came to life. She grinned as the screen lit up. "Marcus you did it!" Marcus pushed his glasses up slightly. "No we did it." He stood up patting the computer. "Now all we need to do is free those docking clamps." He stood up slightly watching as the docking lights came back on. He grinned widely. "You know come to think of it I thought that would be a lot harder." Lucy shook her head her gaze turned as she watched something long and black jump over the ships. She leaned forward eyeing the bay again. "Hey did you see that?" Marcus began to type. "See what?" Lucy blinked meeting his gaze. "That black thing with a long tail!" Marcus eyed her for a moment. "Are you feeling okay?" Lucy rolled her eyes. "Look I'm not loosing my mind, I just saw this three meter long black creature with a tail jump over one of the bays ships!" Marcus laughed slightly. "Look there are no black creatures running around here! I mean come on where would someone get something like that?"

He looked at the glass. "I mean come on this is…" He pulled back as a black head suddenly slammed against the glass its long head moving as it hissed its four mandibled jaws opening. It slammed a clawed hand against the glass. Before creeping up over it out of sight Marcus pulled back in horror. "What in the hell was that?" Lucy grunted aloud. "Oh now you believe me. After you've seen it up close and personal!" Marcus watched the black tail swig down followed by the head reappearing. It watched them hissing again. "What do you suppose it is?" Lucy folded her arms watching saliva drip from the jaws. "Apart from really ugly I have no idea." Marcus raised an eyebrow. "What do you suppose it wants?" Lucy watched the mandibles flare again. "How should I know? Why don't you go outside and ask it?" Marcus growled aloud "Oh that's funny real funny." Lucy watched as what looked like a tongue flew out its four teeth snapping at the class. "Maybe if we should throw it something it might go away."

Marcus turned eyeing her. "Throw something! Were in the hell did you get the idea of throwing something from?" Lucy pulled up both hands. "What! That's what you do with pissed off dogs! You draw their attention by throwing a stick!" Marcus picked up a piece of steel moving it from side to side. "You've got to be joking." Lucy eyed him. "Marcus." Marcus carried on moving the metal. "So you think if we play fetch this ugly son of bitch will go away!" Lucy narrowed her gaze. "Marcus!" Marcus pulled up slightly. "What!" Lucy eyed the window. "It appears ugly is following the stick!" Marcus turned sharply watching as the black creatures head move as he moved the stick. "Okay you were right and I was wrong…" Lucy turned slightly. "How's about carry you carry on drawing it's attention and I'll get a gun." Marcus looked at the closed gun bay with its five pulse rifles locked down. "Fine by me, I'd rather kill it." Lucy turned walking up the gun bay. "Do you know how to fire these?" Marcus looked at the guns. "Aim and shoot in rapid bursts."

Lucy slowly pressed the button watching the guns come out still locked tight. "This is stupid! Why haven't they opened the bays?" She suddenly felt something cold press against her back. She turned only to be faced with a pulse rifle. She watched as Julia's eyes narrowed in anger. "The bays are locked so assholes like you die!" Marcus waved the metal. "So nice to see you Julia I was hoping you'd died." Lucy eyed the gun it had something sticky dripping of its barrel. "Yeah I'd hoped that to I mean Leo's death was so funny. I was hoping Emma had killed you to." Julia raised her gun to Lucy face. "Shut up bitch or I'll shoot you!" Lucy eyed the gun. She eased up her hands. "Be my guest you hard nosed evil bitch!" Marcus turned sharply. "Lucy!" Julia pulled up the gun she'd kill them both! Then take one of the ships! She pressed the trigger only to here a wiring sound. Lucy raised her eyebrow. "You know with those guns you really are meant to have bullets or they don't work."

Julia turned only to feel an agonizing pain as Marcus came forward hitting her full force across the shoulder, with the metal piece. She didn't get time to react as Lucy grabbed her gun slamming it backwards in to her stomach knocking the wind out of her. Marcus pulled up his fist. "I always believed my self to be a gentleman." He crackled his knuckles. "That I shouldn't hit women, even the ones who are bitchy and traitorous but in your case I'll make an exception!" He brought his fist down full force across her face. He watched as she fell back wards. Her body hit the floor full force. He turned as her eyes rolled back in their sockets as she lost consciousness. He turned eyeing her fallen body. "That ones for chaining me and Lucy up!" Lucy looked at Julia she turned looking at Marcus. "Nice shot." Marcus looked at his fist. "She deserved it the bitch." Lucy turned slightly pulling up the pulse rifle. She pressed one of the buttons. "She should've really leant that there's such a thing as a reload chamber."

She watched as the counter slowly went back up to two hundred. " Marcus turned slightly seeing some cargo chaining cord lying near by." You know what I've just had a really interesting thought." Lucy slowly grinned as she caught sight of what he was looking at. "Oh you know what I think I've just had the same evil thought as you." Lucy handed him the gun. "You take this I'll tie her up solid." Marcus looked at the glass the black creature was gone. "I'll keep a look out for ugly." He had a gut feeling that odd creature was still around. He turned back watching as Lucy began to pull Julia towards one of the metal cupboard. Similar to the one they'd been chained up to. "Chain her legs as well."

Emma turned firing her shoulder cannon at one of the hard meat who blew in to pieces. She watched as the others fired taking down more and more as they tried to get through the narrow corridors. They'd been fighting for what felt like an eternity. The hard meat had already gotten on to level sixty, which they'd been moving through. The whole place was a horrible blood bath. Bodies of scientists and marines littered the floor. She'd seen movement guns lying broken on the floor. Their empty barrels covered in hard meat saliva. Red blood was spattered against the walls and dripping from tables and chairs. Turned over coffee cups and vending machines scattered the floors. The marines had tried desperately to hold this level but had not succeeded. She turned shooting another hard meat solider down watching as its dead body hit one of the vending machines. She'd seen this all before, the only difference was that she wasn't afraid this time around. Deep down she only felt depressed for those who hadn't lived.

They turned another corridor seeing that it was empty of hard meat soldiers. Erisoki turned slightly seeing that there was nothing this didn't surprise him. They'd killed so many hard meat soldiers that the others had no doubt backed off to regroup. He raised his fist looking at his hunter. "You fought well! I'm very proud of you all!" Jeuki nodded slightly as did the others. He turned looking at one of the doors, which kept on opening and shutting. He looked down seeing another died ooman warrior. All these warriors had fought with honour trying to hold this place. He looked at the Jeuki's mate something told him that none of this was sitting well with her. He could understand these beings were her race. Even if they didn't like her anymore it didn't mean she didn't care about them. It was always far harder when it's your own race being slaughtered by hard meat and powerless to stop them. He'd been on a hunt long ago as young blooded warrior where almost half of the young bloods had died.

It was tough and hard and he'd felt powerless, as he'd watched his friends die around him. He put a hand on his chin slightly. Most of these oomans had no weapons anyway they were the type he wouldn't hunt period. Female and males oomans who weren't fighters and didn't stand a chance or so it seemed from looking at this place. Emma turned another corridor; she stopped backing up seeing a large room on the far side. She moved forward stopping as they came to it. She watched as Jeuki turned stopping watching as the others did. She ran her hand up the door seeing the bloodstains over the sigh, which said central control. She couldn't take this anymore! If she didn't do something she'd never be able to live with herself! Jeuki put a hand on Emma's arm. "What's wrong?" Emma looked at the door. "I have to go in here…I have to do something." Jeuki watched as the elder came forward trying to see what was going on. Jeuki looked at the corridor. "You want to help the weaker oomans don't you?" Emma looked down slightly. "Yes."

Erisoki listened slightly trying to understand ooman language. Jeuki pulled up a clawed hand. "Why? I mean look what they tried to do to you." Emma turned sharply. "I can't just stand here Jeuki! I was like them once! I know what they're going through." Jeuki pulled back slightly. "You do know if you give them guns they'll become prey." Emma nodded slowly. "Yeah well I'd rather they have a chance against the hard meat even if it means I end up hunting them as well." Jeuki breathed in deeply. "What do I tell Erisoki?" Emma looked at her wrist blades. " Tell him I'm going to make the hunt more challenging." She lowered her shoulder cannon. Jeuki slowly pulled her in to a hug. "Very well." He watched as she went through the door. Erisoki came forward. "What's going on?" Jeuki looked at the open doors. "My mate is going to make the hunt truly challenging." Erisoki shook his head. "What's really going on Jeuki?" Jeuki breathed in knowing he wasn't going to get out of this.

He looked at the open doors. "She's giving the weaker oomans a chance to hunt hard meat for themselves as well as escape." Erisoki nodded slightly. "I see." Idosoi growled aloud. "You call your ooman mate a wonderful hunter Jeuki. Yet she'd still betray as by helping the other oomans!" Erisoki turned slowly. "You will be silent or I will kill you!" Jeuki turned in anger. "My mate is not a traitor! She's killed her own kind just to free you and this clan!" He found himself snarling aloud. "She isn't doing this for the ooman warriors she hates them! She's doing this for the weaker oomans who can't fight!" Erisoki eyed Idosoi. "Tell me if the hard meat were hunting you and you had only a wooden spear." He eased up a clawed finger. "If someone could give you a metal spear so you stood a chance would you take it?" Idosoi nodded slightly. "Yes I would take it." Erisoki growled in anger. "This is what she's doing! It is no different to a hunter trying to give you a metal spear so you can survive!" Jeuki turned eyeing the young blood. "She'll hunt them to if they have weapons! There still prey to her regardless." Erisoki looked at the door he slowly typed in to his wrist armour watching as his cloak went up. He watched the others do the same. "I want to watch Jeuki's mate and you are all going to follow me in! Because I believe you young bloods need to learn that hunting is not just about killing hard meat. It's about others around you be they your race or not!"

Emma watched as the door half closed behind her. She slowly looked at the room whose tall sections of glass stood out. They were information screens. Huge glass ones no doubt for scientists to ponder their thoughts over. She looked at the long panel stacked up with papers and spilt coffee cups and half eaten sandwiches. She grunted in annoyance putting her hands on the papers throwing them off full force. Who ever worked here before they died was a slob. She grabbed a half full coffee cup throwing it at the glass panel near by. Couldn't people at least clean up places before they died? She began to tap in to the panel watching as the screen went up. She began to type she'd probably get in to trouble from the elder for this. She sighed aloud she was willing to take the punishment if there was one. Some might see what she was doing as being a traitor. Not that she blamed them she was meant to be a hunter yet she could be seen as trying to give her race to much help.

She watched as the screen brought up the by pass for the guns. She hit the main panel watching as the as the interlock began to click on the screen. Her gaze turned as the gun racks around her opened and he guns came out. She put a hand on her face obviously no one was watching the computers anymore because no one had blocked her. In fact it seemed like something was making it easier than normal. She sighed aloud as she carried on typing all she had to do was gain control of the voice computer for the ship. She found her self-sweating this was hard, some of her hacks weren't working. She breathed in trying to by pass the system all she had to do was get voice control, she could do this! She watched as the screen brought up an access bar, she sighed aloud. It had taken her more than five minutes to get through. She slowly began to type in what the computer had to say. Her gaze turned to the main panel button, once this message went out every electronic pad would go off. As well as the main voice, which would keep repeating.

She slammed it hard her gaze turned as the ship began to speak. "This is an evacuation notice from level fifty central control. This ship has become compromised please move to the Sirun for protection. This is not a drill please evacuate immediately, I repeat this is not a drill you are in very serious danger, please leave now. She turned slightly, why could she hear footsteps? Someone was right behind her! She turned only to grabbed she watched as a long marine dagger moved close to her neck. She felt some one grab her hair tighter, she couldn't move. She turned slightly seeing a bone necklace hanging from the person's neck, her necklace! "How nice to see you again, Lexington." Lexington growled aloud. "You stinking bitch you killed my marines!" He raised the dagger running it along her cheek watching as the blood started to flow. "I'm going to enjoy cutting you in to little pieces!" Emma slowly looked at her wrist blades. "Not as much as I'm going to enjoy turning you in to a trophy you stupid bastard!" Lexington held her hair tighter. "Disgusting alien humping bitch like you'd be able to fight me!" Emma felt her hand form a fist. "My god you really are a moron! I was right your mother must feel really sorry for you." She looked at the dagger. "You being not nearly as smart as a dog and all it must really get to her mustn't it?"

Lexington pulled her hair back. "Shut up! You're stuck here and you're not moving!" Emma raised her hand slightly feeling him trying to push against her. "You know what your problem is Lexington?" Lexington snarled aloud. "No what is my problem you dirty alien-humping bitch?" Emma narrowed her gaze. "You're a stupid son of a bitch who talks too much!" Lexington didn't get a chance to move as Emma's blades slammed backwards ripping through his armoured shirt. He pulled back yanking at her hair. He felt one of the dread locks rip off as he moved back. He stepped back looking at it before tossing it aside. Emma pulled back clutching her hair that hurt! She raised her shoulder cannon but stopped it before it rose fully. Her gaze narrowed as she lowered it turning it off fully. "You know what I'd get no satisfaction from blowing you up, you stupid bastard. I'd rather kill you the old fashioned way!" Lexington grinned as he pulled out his pulse rifle throwing it on the floor. "Likewise bitch!"

He raised his dagger watching as her wrist blades flew out to full length. He grinned evilly. "It's a shame I was hoping your ugly assed boyfriend would be here I'd love to kill him." Emma slammed her blades forward watching sparks fly, as they hit the long carving marine blade. Lexington pulled back taking another swing only to have Emma duck. He turned slicing the dagger close to her arm she turned sharply. Emma felt the force as she took a blow to the face as Lexington's fist hit her. She pulled back slicing his arm as he brought it around again. He pulled back only to come forward trying to slice her with the weapon. Lexington felt the force as his blade made contact with hers again. He grinned pushing against her wrist blades. "Did I ever tell you how much of a murdering traitor you are to the human race?" Emma pulled back slamming her wrist blades out full force causing sparks to fly as they hit the dagger. "Did I ever tell you how much of a sick messed up son of bitch you are?" She felt the force as they smashed weapons harshly.

Lexington pulled back as she swung again he slammed the blade down watching blood fly as it caught her arm's side. He thrust the blade forward slamming its hilt in to her face before she could react. Emma pulled back in agony she felt the blood as it started to run out of her mouth and down her chin. She turned slicing her wrist blades down. Lexington yelped as the blades hit his chests slicing down his jacket. He laughed ripping it free. "Your blades are weak like you Emma Wingates!" Emma snarled aloud. "Screw you!" Lexington pulled back avoiding the blades again. He thrust out his hand grabbing her free one in mid motion. "Your weak just like your ugly boyfriend!" Emma yelped in pain as her hand was pushed back she brought up the blades stopping the dagger as it came down. "You think to much of yourself Lexington. You're so cocky you forget important things!" Lexington grinned pulling her arm further back listening for a cracking sound. "Like what?" Emma narrowed her gaze. "That your prey."

Her hand came free suddenly Lexington didn't get a chance to move as the blades hit his stomach full force. Emma watched the general bend over. She pushed her blades further in. She was about to yank them out when she realized something was wrong. Lexington wasn't crying out in pain. Her gaze widened as he came up from his bent over position. Lexington looked at the blades in bedded in his stomach. He watched as white android blood mixed with his own blood started to run out. He grinned looking at her. "You underestimate your prey." Emma looked at the blood what the hell was he! He wasn't human or so it seemed! Lexington grinned grabbing her hand. He slowly pulled her blades free watching white and red blood drip from them. "You can't kill me, I'm the first of my kind a human being. Who's been enhanced with android parts a cyborg if you will. The perfect military solider powerful, doesn't feel pain and is very strong!" He pulled her arm full force bending it back causing her to scream.

Emma didn't get a chance to think as she was thrown full force at one of the glass screens. She felt it smash to pieces with the force of her body. She groaned painfully feeling the force as her shoulder made contact with the ground. Lexington looked at the fallen woman. He tossed the dagger to one side he didn't need it anymore it had been for fun. He could break every bone in her body! Her weapons were useless anyway since he didn't feel pain. Emma tried to get up only to feel a kick, which knocked the wind out of her. Lexington grabbed the fallen woman by the hair. He ignored the wrist blades as they sliced across his chest. He brought his fist down hearing her cry out as it hit her stomach. Emma watched as Lexington pulled back she brought the blades up full force, watching them slice by his shoulder. All she felt was pain as the general kicked her sending her flying back first in to the computer panel. She brought her foot up kicking his face as he leaned over her fallen form. Lexington growled aloud he grabbed Emma's neck.

He slowly pulled her up ignoring her blades as they slashed across his arm. He smiled as he watched her feet leave the floor kicking air. Emma felt the pain as he started to choke her. She had to get free! She pulled her hand down grabbing her spear she felt the click as the sides went out jamming right in to there target. Lexington felt a sharp pain he groaned letting go of Emma who fell to the floor She yanking her spear free causing his blood to spatter the walls. He looked down only to be knocked of his feet as the spear hit his chest causing him to hit the floor hard. He got up slightly only to have the spear go right through his shoulder full force pinning him. He looked at it before pulling he watched sparks fly as he ripped himself free. He snarled as the spear hit the floor in a pool of the two different bloods. His gaze narrowed as he looked at the damage. Part of his arm was a mess the android complaints could be seen he moved his hand seeing that his thumb was no longer working.

Emma ran forward slamming in to Lexington before he could react. He was a machine all she had to do was wreck the machine in him! Lexington felt the wrist blades go through his chest as he hit the floor. Hs gaze widened as he looked up only to see the wrist blades as they came down across his face. He turned in anger. Emma felt the pain as she was tossed, she hit another glass panel back first causing it to smash on impact. Lexington rose slowly putting a hand on his face. He couldn't feel flesh he could only feel bone on the right side. He looked at the fallen woman, the little bitch! He was going to rip her arms off and pull out her insides! Emma turned as Lexington ran at her she grabbed her net gun firing it, she watched as it hit its target. Lexington hit the wall feeling the hunters net as it started to constrict. He roared in anger this little piece of hunter's equipment wouldn't work on him! He was fitted to be strong enough to break it. He pulled up his hands grabbing the netting.

He felt the rip as his flesh was torn off as he moved forward he pulled up his hands. Pulling them from side to side watching as the netting began to break with his strength. He cried out in anger as it broke fully. His half metal skeleton was made from prototype steel which was based on the predator, metal! It was built to withstand any weapon! Emma watched as the wrecked general moved forward, half his skull was showing through. Along with what looked like a metallic eye. His flesh was torn off around his body revealing android parts. Lexington looked at his torn body before laughing out loud. "You really are a stupid little bitch! Did you believe your net would kill me?" Emma slowly smiled. "Not really but then that's not why I did it." Lexington looked up in confusion as he moved towards her. "Oh really so why did you do it!" Emma looked at her wrist blades smiling. "You really are stupid aren't you!" She looked at his neck seeing the part she was looking for. "All androids have a main system that powers their body!"

She grabbed her spear as she ran at him. "It's hidden behind the chest cavity!" Lexington felt the spear go through him full force. He bent over only to feel part of his front get ripped off by the blades. He growled slamming his fist out causing Emma to be knocked back. He grabbed her spear pulling it out throwing it to one side. He leapt forward slamming her in to the ground. He wasn't going to let her kill him! He couldn't be killed he was untouchable! Emma felt the force as Lexington began to strangle her. She pulled out her hand reaching for the fallen spear. She could feel the air leaving her body, she reached out with all her energy feeling her fingers touch the spear. Lexington laughed aloud. "You'll never kill me you little bitch!" Emma looked at her necklace hanging from his neck. She grabbed the spear. Lexington didn't get a chance to move as the spear came upwards slamming in to his upper chest. It came out of his back sending blood flying. He felt his arms suddenly go numb.

Emma watched as Lexington's arms went limp she pulled them away from her throat. Choking as she started to breath in air again. She was going to get her necklace back! Lexington felt himself panic as Emma got out from under him moving around his back he couldn't move anything! Emma yanked her spear free watching Lexington's paralyzed body hit the floor. She pressed it clicking it back in to her armour. Her gaze turned as she brought her wrist blades down cutting along his back. She carried on cutting around his spinal column her hand grabbed the half skull head wrenching it free with all her might. She watching as the half metal skeleton spinal column came free as well. She raised it up looking at the metal and skeleton. Her gaze turned as she picked up her necklace, which was lying in a pool of android blood. She eased it up putting it over her head. She could see that Lexington's brain was encased in metal and the little cords were still firing.

She rose her trophy up he wasn't technically dead his body was, but his mind wasn't. Which meant he'd be alive until the power unit in his brain burnt out which could take years. She looked around the room raising her bloody wrist blades. Her kill! Her trophy! She leaned back letting her scream of victory hit the air. She didn't really know how long she was screaming for but then she didn't really care. She stopped breathing in deeply before lowering her trophy. She turned to walk away only to watch in surprise and shock as the elder hunter uncloaked. Jeuki uncloaked next to him followed by the other hunters. They'd been there the whole time! She watched as the elder looked at her and then the other hunters. Erisoki looked at Jeuki who had been finding this difficult. He'd had to watch his mate fight of this other warrior ooman but wasn't allowed to interfere in her kill. His gaze turned back to Emma. The ooman looked worried almost like she was in some kind of trouble.

He nodded to Jeuki who moved towards Emma. He turned eyeing. "Tell me Idosoi, would this ooman have killed the warrior if she was a traitor?" Idosoi looked up slightly. "No she wouldn't have." Erisoki folded his arms. "There is your proof! I hope you've learnt something from this young one! The first thing being to never talk ill of another hunter!" Jeuki put a hand on Emma's arm. "Beautiful kill." Emma looked at the elder. "I am in trouble?" Jeuki picked her up. "No you're not in any trouble. The elder wanted to watch you, I wasn't allowed to interfere." Emma blinked as he picked her up off the floor. "Why?" Jeuki ran a hand through her hair gently. "To show the others that you are a true hunter and that your loyalty is with as." Emma put her arms around his neck. "Oh." Jeuki slowly moved a clawed hand down her back. "I knew that anyway but one of the young bloods had to be shown." He put a hand on his necklace. "Like you said you'd get my necklace back and you stuck to your word." Emma ran a hand over his mask. Jeuki slowly put her down.

Erisoki moved forward putting a hand on the oomans shoulder. He squeezed gently before calmly nodding out of respect. He knew this way reassured her, and she understood it. He put a hand on her face gently raising her head before calmly pulling back and moving away. He signaled to the two young bloods who instantly nodded to her. Jeuki put a hand on Emma's watching as she hung the trophy of her back plating. He felt so proud of her right now, his teaching had paid off and this fight had proved it. His mate had just killed a very worthy trophy and he'd been there to see her do it.
