CHAPTER 5
"Who
does she want Duke?"
"John.. She wants you."
"WHAT!"
This was impossible. Returning to this morning, I remembered what
James said, "John, one or another you will join us on Char, and
we will fight side by side once again." That sentence was stuck
in my head like a sour thumb.
"I am very sorry John."
When
do I le-"
"Right now John." A voice from behind
spoke quickly.
"Ya John. Right now. HAHAH!" It was
Kerrigan and James. They looked nothing like they had before they
were transformed into infested.
"James..."
"John..."
We starred at each other. It felt like forever. I couldn't keep my
eyes off him. I was afraid he would turn on me and kill me on the
spot. It was as if time stopped and we were the only ones alive at
the moment.
"Well," Kerrigan started," We better get
going boys."
"Goodbye John."
I
didn't want to answer Duke. I was disappointed with him. With such
authority, he did absolutely nothing to stop Kerrigan and James form
taking away from earth. Kerrigan look down at me.
"Don't
worry John. The zerg have been awaiting your
return."
"Return?"
"Don't
you-"
"Kerrigan!" James interrupted.
"Oops!
Sorry."
"WHAT?" To me, it was as if I wasn't
even there. and they were alone.
"Well, here we are. Get in
john."
"Oh no Kerrigan, Evil demon bitches
first."
"RAHH! DONT EVER!"
"Don't
ever what!"
"GET IN RIGHT NOW!" Well, I thought
it was funny.
"John...JOHN
WAKE UP!" The voice yelled.
I woke up, but I didn't want to
after I saw Kerrigan and James's face when I woke up.
"AH!
GET AWAY!"
"Whets wrong with him?" James asked
Kerrigan.
"He's probably getting his memory back."
'What
are you talking about? I have no memory of being on Char!"
"It's
a dorm end memory John. It will come to you soon
enough.
...BEEP BEEP...Status report requested form
Kerrigan and James...
"Status report start. We have
acquired subject 234. We are approaching planet Char as we speak.
Kerrigan out."
...SENDING...BEEP...status report
sent to...Overmind...status report...ended.
"What is
the-AH!" Suddenly my mind seemed as if it were about to
explode. I couldn't stop it. I kept pulsing up and down.
"what's
happening to him Kerrigan?"
"His memory is coming
back. It's being revealed as we speak."
"Kerrigan?"
"Yes
James?"
"Why do we need John?"
"Watch the
TV behind you and you'll see."
...updating dream
catcher 5000 PLUS...Dream
started.
"Welcome
Kerrigan."
"thank you Duke. It's an honor to fight on
Planet Char with you."
"Kerrigan meet Jim Raynor."
"Well
well well...JOHN! eww!"
"WHAT?"
"doesn't
take a telepath to know what your thinkin'. humph"
"DAMNIT!
I forgot about your telepathy."
"Alright children it's
time for you to head out. The confederacy base has been ambushed. you
too need to head over there right away!"
"YES
SIR!"
"You
and Jim Raynor were friends Kerrigan?"
"Surprisingly...yes
we were."
"eww."
"Just
watch."
"Hey
Kerrigan you see that?"
"See what?"
"The
overlord!"
"Oh No! we have to get back to
base."
"Kerrigan NO! we can get this one."
"Are
you sure Jim? WAIT LOOK! its.. it's landing."
"Be ready
Kerrigan!"
...RAGH!...
"It dropped an
egg... I'm going to go check it out Jim."
"Kerrigan be
careful."
"OH MY GOD JIM!"
"I'm COMING
KERRIGAN!"
"no JIM! its not attacking. its a human
egg. in a zerg egg. but that
means..."
...TRANSMISSION...ended...
"DAMNIT!"
"Kerrigan
what's wrong? don't you remember that?"
"No. I don't
know why either. my theory is that there is another infested human
within the overmind colony on char. But he hasn't been found in any
history record or anything."
"Did you check the
libraries data base?"
"they said someone deleted the
file or it didn't exist in the first place."
"But only
the Overmind high council can do that!"
"What the
hell? I HAD THE WEIRDEST DREAM!"
"calm down John
we are landing."
