New Obsession of the Enemy.
By: Sylis "The Twilight Fox"
A/N: Ok I have to give a shot out to atlantis-rob. Thanks for all the reviews you have left. This is going to be a short chapter. For the time being, this is going to be the end of the Journeys of the Outlaw Star chapters, I have a big case of writer's block.
------
Algiza woke up to find herself in her new room. She stretched and yawned, reaching over to grab Gene's yellow cloak, cause she still didn't have anything of her own to wear. She slowly made her way to the door and opened it, entering the hallway. She rubbed her eyes and was surprised to see her father, Gene just walking down the stairs, scratching his head. Algiza blinked a few times, but then went in the same direction that Gene did. She was half way down the stairs when Melfina greeted her.
"Good morning Algiza, did you sleep well?" Melfina asked.
"Yeah." Algiza said still rubbing her eyes.
"Well she is just like Gene when it comes to sleeping in." Jim said, laughing. Algiza blushed slightly. "Don't worry, I was just kidding around." Jim said, going back to his food.
"Algiza, we'll have to take you shopping so will have some clothes of your own." Melfina said. Algiza only nodded.
------
A few hours later, Gene, Melfina, Algiza, Jim, Aisha, and Suzuka were checking out the area. Algiza now wore clothes much like her father's, but they were blue pants and tank top, she also wore a red cloak much like Melfina's.
"Oh, an arcade! That looks like fun!" Aisha pointed out.
"You do nothing but play video games, don't you Aisha?" Suzuka asked.
"Well there is nothing wrong with a few games… right?" Jim asked.
"Alright, we can check it out." Gene said. Just as the group headed in the direction the arcade, a shot was fired in their direction.
"You're not going anywhere…" A familiar voice said. The turned around to find the MacDougal brothers.
"Damn it! Don't you guys ever give up?" Gene asked, loading his gun. Ron had his handgun drawn and his caster at his side.
"Melfina, still you will not come with me?" Harry asked.
"I hate to break it to ya lover boy, but Melfina stays here. She is going to stay with her family." Gene said.
"Gene, you die and Melfina will coming with me!" Harry charged Gene with amazing speed. Gene shot, missing Harry. He shot again and Harry dodge again. I can't hit him! Harry was just about to strike Gene with a punch, when Algiza ran up and grabbed Harry's arm, flipping him onto the ground.
"Don't you dare… Don't you dare threaten my father!" Algiza screamed as she darted at Harry delivering a swift kick to his jam, breaking it. Harry screamed out in pain, grabbing a hold of jaw.
"Father? Gene is your father?" Harry screamed. While they were distracted, Ron aimed towards Algiza, firing his gun, but Gene quickly put up a light shield, blocking his shots. Jim quickly drew his gun, shooting Ron's out of his hands.
"You are too slow." Jim grinned.
"Melfina…" Harry began to stand up. He glared at her, Algiza standing between him and her mother. "Tell me… If Gene is the father of this red head… She looks like you… Does… does that mean you are her mother?"
"Yes Harry… I am." Melfina places her arm around Algiza, holding on to her tightly.
"Then you are tainted… But your daughter." Harry turned his glare to Algiza. "She is just like you then, wouldn't I be correct? Then she will be mine. I will have her!" Harry yelled.
"I don't think so." Gene had his shotgun aimed right at Harry's forehead. "Jim, you and the other's take care of Ron." Gene's eyes returned to Harry. "Listen, Algiza is staying with us. Now I suggest that you leave."
"Her name is Algiza huh? Algiza, will you come with me?" Harry looked at Algiza, extending her hand.
"I'll put this in the best way I can." Within a second, Algiza had grabbed Gene's handgun, aiming it at Harry. "No…" She shot twice, grazing both sides of his forehead. He screamed in pain.
"Well looks like he is taken care of." Aisha said as she, Jim, and Suzuka walked over.
"What happened to Ron?" Gene asked. They pointed to Ron, on the ground unconscious. He laughed, then he grabbed Harry by the hair and lifted his head up. "I suggest you take your brother and get the hell out of here." Gene dropped Harry and the crew left the brothers bruised and beaten.
------
They all headed for the Outlaw Star, Jim and Aisha stopped.
"Gene, you go get the ship ready, I have an idea." Jim said with a grin, then he looked at Aisha. "Come on Aisha, let's go." The two ran for a different dock while Gene, Melfina, Algiza and Suzuka ran towards the Outlaw Star.
"Gilliam," Gene said after tapping his earring communicator, "Get the ship ready. Jim and Aisha will be joining us soon."
"Ok Gene." Gilliam responded. They arrived at the Outlaw Star minutes later, getting into the ship. Gene sat in his seat, Suzuka in hers, and Melfina entered her tube. Algiza sat in front in Jim's seat.
"What are the systems' status?" Gene asked.
"All Systems are ready to go." Melfina replied.
"All engines are green." Gilliam said.
"Alright, we've got launch clearance, now we just have to wait Jim and Aisha." Algiza said.
"Gene, a transmission is coming in. It is Jim." Gilliam said.
"Well speak of the devil, Jim, what's the good word?" Gene asked.
"Aisha and I are going to be there in a few seconds, get ready for us." Jim said.
"You heard them Gilliam, open up." The door opened up right when they arrived. Jim and Aisha ran in, Algiza got out of Jim's seat so he could sit down. Just as they were about to take off, another transmission came in.
"Starwind!" It was Ron and Harry.
"We just kicked your ass, aren't you guys done yet?" Gene asked.
"No, this isn't over." Harry replied. "We will kill you… and I will have Algiza! We still have our ship! We can follow you anywhere."
"That's what you think!" Aisha said.
"All we need is this." Jim held up his hand and a control that was in it. He grinned and laughed. Everyone but Aisha stared at him.
"Jim, what are you talking about?" Gene asked.
"Just watch." Jim said as he pushed the button. Harry shook on his screen as an explosion was heard.
"Damn you!" Harry yelled right before the transmission signal was interrupted.
"We set up a few bombs on the Shangri-la." Jim laughed. "That should take care of the ship, not sure if they are gone for good though."
"Well, let's not wait to find out. Let's go!" Gene yelled. The Outlaw Star took off from Katrino. Again, they were in space. "So, I guess we head back to Heifong." Gene said.
"Where is Heifong?" Algiza asked.
"Don't worry dear, we'll explain everything to you." Melfina smiled.
------
They made it back to Heifong. The Outlaw Star and it's crew led very exciting lives. They will have many adventures ahead of them, at least that is what all of the rumors said. Gene Starwind was known as one of the greatest outlaws in the universe, along with his crew, which was feared by other Outlaws and all of the Pirates. Even the C'tarl C'tarl Empire feared the name of Gene Starwind and the Outlaw Star.
A/N: For the time being, I think I am going to stop writing chapters. Maybe I'll think of something I can write later on. If I think of more, I'll be sure to post them.
See You Later!
