Disclaimer: I think it would be shorter if I said only what I actually own. I own the planet names Jrebera, Nerthoria, Zerin, Irora, Rethorec, and Trior. I own the characters Alex Kerios, Meria Krithita, Trolec Verrtsi, Hreth, Youkai, Nethretor, Theoric Harredir, and Hetroric Deriath. I own the Puppy, Raven, and Vengeance Marauder Battlemech chassis, as well as the Warmechs. There may be more in future chapters, but I will include them in then.
Alex and Trolec arrived at the Dark Star complex shortly after departing the mining planet. "People of the Dark Star! I bring you the Jade Falcon spy Trolec Verrtsi! He has informed the Grand War Counsel of our actions! Soon we will have the other thirty clans and the Inner Sphere knocking down our doors! What do you suggest we do with him? Torture him slowly until he is on the brink of death, or perhaps just kill him and parade his burnt and broken body throughout the streets? What do you wish his fate to be? Torture? Or Death!" Alex yelled, his voice one of power and anger.
"TORTURE! TORTURE! TORTURE!" the crowd yells, the situation nearing riot status.
"TORTURE IT IS THEN! Trolec Verrtsi, upon crimes of espionage and treachery, you are hereby sentenced to torture until you are on the brink of death, then you will be healed, then tortured again! The process will repeat until your body simply gives up living and you die! Any last words? Perhaps a last request? And no, I will not except freeing you or otherwise changing the end if your fate." Alex said, his voice as cruel and cold as Death itself.
"Yeah, have me tortured by Meria." Trolec responded in a bold tone.
"Final Wish accepted! However, if you try anything Trolec, I will torture you, and I know far more subtle ways of killing a man then Meria does. We all know about your Love, and I think it would be marvelous if you two were to be tortured together, don't you? That is what will happen if you try anything on my Meria, understand?" Alex said, his face dark and murderous.
"I understand. I will comply. I just have one question, why not simply kill me?" Trolec said, his face showing his false lack of hope.
"Because, this punishment is far more horrible for each and every torture session you will have will be public, and will be recorded as well. Video and Audio. Dark Star members of all generations to come will be able to hear your screams, your cries of mercy. All who come in the future will be able to watch as you slowly die, as your body and spirit both give up all shreds of hope that remains in your pathetic mind. You will be kept in an energy cage of which you will only come out when Meria decides it is time for your torture. I will oversee any and all torture periods Trolec, I will know if you try anything. And just so that you know, Meria is not a forgiving person. She despises betrayers and cowards most, and unfortunately for you, you fit into both categories. I hope you enjoy the rest of your life Trolec, I will." Alex said. "Take him away, let him first see the torture room, then bring him to his cell. I will attend to Meria." Alex said as he turned to help Meria.
"Now, how to take Jrebera? Should we implement the Crone formation with five stars and the Wheel formation with the other two that are capable of such an advanced formation, or perhaps we should do a grand melee?" Meria said thoughtfully.
"Jrebera has no Battlemechs, only Elementals. We should do a grand melee with our Elementals. The snipers should be here, the LRM40s here, the Streak SRM15s here, and the rest using their shortest ranged weapons and their swords. We will lead the charge. I have already hacked into the Jade Falcon HQ intercom systems and made it so that the first transmission from either of us will begin our battle music. We will show the Jade Falcons and all the Clans, as well as the Inner Sphere, what Love can really do in battle. But for now, let us forget our conquest for now. We will be attacked before we return from Jrebera if we leave before they come. It is now a time of peace. A time to relax and forget the war. It is like the war is over, only it is but on pause. Meria, perhaps you would like, to see a movie that the Laborer caste made? I am sure it will be a good movie. It is called The Kerensky Chronicles. It has been out since before Hreth died and he said it was a great movie. So, would, would you like to see it with me?" Alex asked nervously. He blushed slightly as he watched Meria ponder her answer.
"I would like that Alex, I would like that very much." Meria said, blushing as well.
