I woke up a few hours later with Raj'ah holding me in his arms. I didn't freak out like last time. I allowed myself to snuggle into his arms. I can hear his heartbeat. Wow...his heartbeat is very different than a normal human heart. I continued to listen to his heartbeat until I fell fast asleep. Before that was accomplished, Raj'ah woke up and that's when I saw it. His green eyes. Those beautiful green eyes. It felt like I was in an trance. Those green eyes...beautiful green eyes...

I saw a pair of green eyes flashing at me.

I backed up slowly and looked at Raj'ah who felt very concerned.

"What is it young one?"

"It's nothing.." I said stretching my arms.

Raj'ah at first didn't buy the who it's nothing part, got over it and followed me as I got out of bed.

"How are you feeling?"

"I feel better now." I smiled at him.

I walked over to the dresser and found my necklace. I immediately put it on and looked at Raj'ah.

"Where did you get it?"

"A guardian angel with green eyes gave it to me when I was a child." I explained.

Raj'ah walked over and took a look at it. Now is the time to show her his prize.

"Follow me."

This is confusing...he told me to follow him. For what? I followed Raj'ah as he led me through the hallways and into a room. He pressed the door to open, and led me into the room. It was pitch black at first, but all the sudden the lights turned on automatically. I gasped. The room is decorated with skulls of different species I didn't even know that existed.

"These are the trophies of my kills." Raj'ah explained to me.

"I went on these hunts before you were born." I stared at them in awe.

"Are you still hunting different species?"

"Rarely." He answered.

"I wanted to be an Arbitrator just like my mother before she and my dad died."

"I'm so sorry..." I emphasize.

"I lost my parents too."

Raj'ah patted my head softly. I turned around and continued looking at the skulls. I got to a spot where I saw three human skulls that looked about two decades old. I looked at them and all the sudden I spotted one of the three skulls with a rusty gold teeth in the front. My eyes grew wide.

"Hey little Chicka!"

I gasped and looked at another skull who has crooked teeth.

"We won't harm you little girlie!"

I backed away again holding my head. I saw the final skull with a missing tooth on its side.

"We got a lot of toys for you to play with!"

I felt so dizzy that I couldn't even breathe...

A tall stranger wearing the mask came and saved me, cutting my bonds, un gagged me, and healing me then a pair of green eyes flashed before my eyes.

I looked at Raj'ah until all the sudden darkness consumed me.

Raj'ah caught Alex into his arms as she passed out. He had to show her the skulls of his kills of those men who tried to kidnap her when she was a pup. He managed to save those three skulls until the time was right to bring her with him. He kneeled on the floor and held the young Ooman in his arms, cradling her. He made a soft trill to wake her up.

I opened my eyes after awhile. I looked around. We were still in Raj'ah's trophy room. I looked up at Raj'ah, who is looking at me with concern. I smiled immediately. He was the one who saved me 20 years ago from those men! I wondered what happened to those men after he saved me. Well, I got my answer. Those men were mounted on the wall as Raj'ah's trophies for not only good kills, but for saving me as well. He also was the one who gave me the necklace before he disappeared.

"It's you..." I whispered to him.

Raj'ah nodded at me and brought me up to my knees.

"You saved my life when I was seven." Raj'ah nodded again.

"I didn't want those bad blood males to do harm to you because you are innocent."

"You healed me I remember." I said touching my face from where I got slapped.

Raj'ah chuckled. "I healed you, yes. You don't have a bruise on your face."

"Is it the healing gel?" I asked trying to feel my neck, but no scar.

"That's the one." Raj'ah nodded.

"I hope that you will forgive me."

"For what?" I asked in confusion.

"I didn't tell you sooner who I was."

I smiled at him and placed my hand on his face.

"I wouldn't believe you even if you told me."

Raj'ah was surprised at first, but got over it when he placed his hand on my cheek, stroking it softly.

"You are my guardian angel."

"In our language guardian is called Nrak'ytara." Raj'ah explained.

"N...yak..tara?"

"Close." Raj'ah laughed and placed his forehead on mine.

"All this time, how come you didn't come visit me?"

"I wanted to, but I didn't want to draw out the oomans."

"That's true too." I nodded understanding him.

I smiled at him some more. He stroked my cheek with his claw while I touched his mandibles.

"Cool." I smiled at him.

We were both like this for a moment before Rai'eka came in.

"Arbitrator Raj'ah, Clan Leader Kai'ro wants to speak to you."

Raj'ah growled in frustration, let go of me and walked out of the trophy room. Rai'eka looked at me and walked into the trophy room.

"The entire time, it was Raj'ah who saved me from those men."

"Honestly that night he saved you, has changed him."

"What do you mean?" I asked in confusion.

"He was a hunter, wanting revenge on the bad bloods who murdered our family."

"I heard what happened. Raj'ah told me about it."

Rai'eka chuckled and got me up on my feet.

"Come child. We will talk about this at another time. Right now it's dinner time."

"You must be out of your mind Arbitrator!" Clan Leader Kai'ro yelled at him from the screen.

Raj'ah sighed in frustration. He contacted Kai'ro about the incident that happened on earth and that he brought a live human being on board.

"She's an Ooman! You know better than to pluck her off of her planet!"

"She was severely injured by those badblood oomans-"

"You should of left her there to die! She is worthless prey and a Loudte Kalei!"

That saying really hurt Raj'ah and growled at him, but he didn't dare back talk to the leader.

"Bring the Ooman to our planet and I will decide whether she is worthy or not."

"Yes, Kai'ro." Raj'ah muttered ending the transmission.

Taking a breath. Raj'ah growled to himself. He hated Kai'ro since he and Rai'eka were sucklings. While their father and mother are away, Kai'ro abused him and Rai'eka. Of course his twin sister forgives him, but Raj'ah on the other hand, did not. He considers Grand Elder Cetanu a father figure to him since his parents and his brothers died cycles ago. He knows that the Grand Elder would accept the female ooman unless... Thinking about it, Raj'ah left the control room, making preparations for the female's training.
