Message for my readers, any star wars experts please leave me some ideas! I know where I am going with this story but ideas of some things

could do along the way would be greatly appreciated. Chapters one through three have been beta read so any grammar mistakes in four through six are on me. If it bothers you check back in a week or so for the chapters to be fixed up. Secondary note I had this story ready a couple days ago but wanted to wait for the issues with reviews to be fixed.

Sarah pov

Alex was strange, those thoughts had been on her mind for a while now. He had freed her from her captors and ensured she would never fear being enslaved again, yet he had not asked for anything in return. No in fact he never requested anything, instead she often found herself seeking him out, asking what she could do to help. She was ill-prepared for the task Mercer had in store for her, and even less prepared for how much she would enjoy it.

Sarah had explored the entirety of the ship and was amazed at the sight of the red-black substance covering the walls. The orange pustules that lined the ceiling provided light and caused an orangish hue to everything. It was so strange, she could feel her own feet walking across the surface of the floor. Could feel the walls flesh that now covered the inner chambers of the ship.

She finally approached the prison chambers, they were full of slaves and slavers alike, she stared into one of the giant orange sacks. The hunter standing next to it sniffed the air, she patted it on the head as she stared at the captive twi'lek held within.

The imprisoned Twi'lek was female, as most of the Twi'leks on board the ship had been. She was a light green color, wearing a skimpy and revealing knew she should feel sorry for the creature currently trapped within the orange prison, yet she felt no sympathy for it.

It not she, Sarah realized. She could no longer associate the creature held in the prison for what she had become. She was better than the pathetic creature held captive before her, Alex had made her stronger, faster, better in every way.

He had even been making her smarter, once in a while he would put her to sleep. When she woke up she understood concepts of things she had never even dreamed of before. She knew what advanced mathematics were, mitosis, and advanced understanding of genetic manipulation. She should have been angry or worried that Alex could so easily manipulate her mind.

Yet all she could think was the simple fact it was Alex, and Alex would never hurt her. Why would he? She was part of him now, just like the flesh growing on the ship around her. Just like the hunters standing guard around the prisoners.

She suddenly felt a presence pressing upon he mind, images and ideas flashed through her mind. Alex wanted her to meet him in the arena, without a thought she began sprinting towards the arena, not due to being in a rush but because it was the most efficient way to move. She arrived and stood next to him on the view port over looking the arena. "Would you like to help me?" Alex asked as he stared into the arena.

Sarah smiled, nodding her head slightly. "I need you to test out the prisoners combat effectiveness, I have several viral strands I wish to test on alien bodies but I need a baseline of their capabilities to see the effects. I would send out a hunter but I felt you wouldn't intimidate the weaker willed prisoners into unconsciousness." Alex explained, a small grin playing across his face, Sarah simply nodded.

Line break

Sarah was nervous, she didn't want to disappoint Alex. She stood at one end of the arena, waiting with baited breath for the hunter to arrive with whatever test subject he had selected. She was tempted to check through the hive mind but had decided to allow Alex to surprise her.

Suddenly one of the walls opened like a massive set of jaws. The hunter emerged the orange sack having connected to it's back, the jaws closed behind it. It turned standing on its hind legs back facing Sarah, the orange sack on it's back ruptured spilling orange liquid onto the floor. A Twi'lek lay sputtering on the ground coughing up the orange liquid.

The Twi'lek slowly sat up even as the hunter melted into the floor "SARAH!?" The Twi'lek shouted, confusion and joy warring across her features. Sarah took a moment to place her face, she was one of her mother's friends and had been on board the ship transporting her to the conference when they had been attacked by pirates.

The women had been nearly a second mother to Sarah to Sarah, having taken care of her when her mother couldn't. She had at times felt closer to the woman before her than to her own mother. The women was her mothers sister, she slowly approached her before falling to her knees in front of her. "It's really you? I thought...I thought you died on the ship." The women sobbed as she wrapped her arms around Sarah.

Sarah tried to feel something for the women currently bawling her eyes out into her shirt. The women she had known her whole life, her name was Lexin... Sarah still felt nothing as she slowly raised her arm and punched the women in the stomach. Lexin's body smashed into the floor with a light thud.

Lexin's eyes were wide as she slowly crawled back to her feet, shocked that the girl she had practically raised had struck her with such power. A mans voice filled the chamber, "Keep her on the defensive but hold back. I need to see her reflexes not see her get destroyed, not on this test subject anyway. We will test healing of lacerations and broken bones later. Try to keep the subject semi intact." The voice seemed to come from everywhere and if one were to look around they would see that mouths had formed along the upper reaches of the walls, the mouths were essentially round holes with teeth...

Lexin was terrified as the creature that looked like her little girl charge her again, this time moving at a far slower speed, her eyes were cold and empty. A sparkle caught Lexins eye as she rolled away from Sarah. There laying on the ground was a silver blaster pistol, if she had been in a better state of mind she would have questioned the fact it had not been their moments before but she was in a panic as she rushed to grab the weapon.

She rolled to her feet barely dodging another strike, blaster gripped tightly as she lined up a shot that would blow the face of her niece off. "Please! Please don't make me do this!" She cried gun shaking in her hand as her finger hovered over the trigger. Sarah hesitated, fear crossing her features as she eyed the gun.

"Sarah, we are beyond life and death. The worst that weapon could do is destroy your body, in which case you would simply reform on one of the hive worlds." The voice boomed through the chamber. To Lexins shock Sarah took his words to heart as she charged. She closed her eyes and pulled the trigger, the blast seemed to echo through her soul. The sickening realization she had just murdered the girl she had held as a baby, the vomit boiling in the back of her throat as she slowly opened her tearful eyes.

She had been ready to see a corpse with a smoking hole in its chest, what she saw instead was somehow far more scarring. Sarah still moving towards her with a blackened crater where her face had been. She had only a moment to feel the shock and fear as Sarah's fist impacted her gut launching her across the room.

"Very good, continue the stress and reflex test for the next hour, add in laceration injuries to test reflexes under blood loss." The voice echoed through the chamber as Sarah's face reformed in a mass of black tendrils. Sarah smirked as her arm lengthened into a metallic cone, seemingly growing from the black mass that made up her arm. Lexin eyes widened as she felt true terror...

Line break

Lexin hurt everywhere, her whole body ached of exhaustion and an assortment of holes had been pinned into her body by Sarah's lance, luckily most of the wounds had clotted before she lost concinnous. She was running on empty though as she once again launched across the room by a powerful strike from Sarah's hair tendril. She hit the ground with a thud and was unable to muster the energy to move. Unable to even will herself to care about the loss of the useless energy pistol.

She hoped they would spare her, maybe use her for more test. Perhaps she could even try to reach Sarah given enough time, but somewhere deep within her soul, she doubted she would be leaving this arena.

"Test subject seems to have mostly expired, she is slightly more fragile than the average human female. Yet the subject has shown itself to be far more flexible and slightly faster. Subpar use of provided weapon, yet the subjects use of tendrils are disappointing. It seems one of there most useful features earlier on in their evolution has become either vestigial or used solely to attract a mate." The voice echoed throughout the chamber.

Lexin had only heard it a few times through out her supposed 'test' yet she had come to despise it. The way Sarah would jump so high whenever she heard it, doing exactly what it said with no hesitation. She had never tried even half as hard to please her mother or her.

"Administer strain DX-1118 D2, it is a highly modified strain of DX-1118 A. It is aimed to grip to a subject species DNA, find and mutate the most impressive features and redesign a creature around it. Though this one has the added disposition of having a tendril strain of the virus inserted into it. Basically it will create a unique if basic infected based on race, creating a template from which I can further evolve and change the infected." The voice explained as a syringe filled with a mixture red, orange, and blue liquid fell from the ceiling into Sarah's hand. The substance seemed to be moving within the syringe almost seeming to be trying to escape.

Lexin lightly lifted her head and watched in terror as Sarah approached her, needle in hand. She tried to will her body to move but her body was tapped. Thus she resorted to begging.

"Sarah please don't...Don't do this! What would your mother think!" She sobbed hoping against hope that something would get through to her. For a moment it seemed as if she succeeded, Sarah stopped dead in her tracks gripping the syringe tightly. Her hopes shattered though as Sarah smiled, it wasn't the warm loving smile Lexin had once been so familiar with. This smile was cold, angry, and ugly.

"I don't know I'll be sure to ask her before I eat her." Sarah explained coldly as she stuck the syringe into her neck. Lexin screamed, she could feel her skin boiling. Her bones liquifying, her brain melting within her skull. She felt herself fading from the world as she was consumed by unbearable pain. "How...(gurgle) Could you?" Lexin gasped her final words.

. "It was easy, I took this little needle and stuck it in your neck!" Lexin barely heard Sarah's answer as she faded from the world.

Sarah watched with fascination as Lexins body seemed to melt massive blue and black tendrils ripping from her body randomly. Some tendrils ended in metal spikes and blades. Other ended in a splintering into thousands of tiny tendrils. She became a large black blob with hundreds of reaching and grasping tendrils. suddenly a tentacle came down from the ceiling cutting off one of the many tendrils and brining it back to Alex.

"Sarah kill it, you will gain something very useful from it's DNA." Alex said an interested look in his eyes. Sarah nodded her head as she rushed the monstrosity, dodging tendrils and blades as she moved. She would have been able to strike the creatures center if not for a large blast striking her in the side, and knocking her off course.

She rolled with the blast, her eyes widened as she saw one of its many tendrils gripping the energy pistol. "Incredible it retained just enough of its intelligence to remember how to use the pistol...This, has great potential." Alex smiled slightly.

Sarah rushed around trying to get close to the beasts core, which was just a black mass. The pistol was more an annoyance than a real threat but the creature kept connecting it's tendrils to form shields to block her strikes, using the pistol to further divide her attention from it's many tendrils

The few times she did manage to penetrate it's defenses her lance failed to do enough damage. Her lance was made to penetrate and while with the right momentum it allowed her to pierce it shields. It was quite clear she needed a weapon to shear parts of the creature off if she wanted to reach it's core. Thus she rolled away from the creature, reshaping her DNA as she moved.

She based her new weapons on fusion of the hunters claws and her lance. Both of her arms became black with spikes growing from the shoulders, her hands replaced with a set of foot and a half long, six inch thick, razor-sharp blades. The blades edges were razor sharp bearing a blunt end. It bore a simple design, three straight marks appeared near the end of the blades. Small rivets appeared along the blades sides giving them a cracked look, these rivets allowed blood to flow back down to her arms. This allowed her to heal slowly over a long-term fight.

She leaped into the air spinning in midair by converting small amounts of her biomass into a gaseous form and pressurizing it in a specially made organ to propel her in mid-air. She became a blender of death slicing tendrils apart, reflecting the laser blast back at the creatures core.

It took ten minutes of slicing and dicing the creature's tendrils but she finally reached the creatures core sinking her newly formed blades into its withering body. Sarah felt no new consciousness enter her mind the creature having lost all but it's most basic instinct and muscle memory. Yet she could feel it's DNA entering her body. She fell to the ground, becoming a mass of tendrils as her body rebuilt itself.

When she stood again her bodies outer lair consisted of several large black tendrils. Intermixed with smaller blue and orange tendrils. Her body appeared to be wrapped in a coating of the tendrils forming a thick carapace, the tendrils ran down from her head. They were wrapped so closely they almost looked connected, her face was now covered in pitch black tendrils. There were no distinguishable facial features visible, her head-tendrils had turned blue bearing orange veins that pulsated.

Her arm and leg joints were wrapped in orange tendrils forming rings between her torso and limbs. The tendrils started from her head-tendrils seeming to sprout from the twin growths atop her head, from there they flowed down her body. Random orange and blue tendrils were intermixed into the black mass. Along her back blue rings grew from the outer armor, from those rings grew large thin black tendrils only slightly thicker than her feeder tentacles.

She had six of these back tendrils, the top two ending in large black three-fingered fist. The next two ended in three metal blades with a small mouth in the center. The final two simply ended... If she had a mouth she would be grinning as she stretched her new armored form. She sprinted forward slamming into the ground before Alex's grinning form.

"We are gonna hit planet side in three hours, from their find and devour your mother. Than work your way up the company in control over the deep sea mining and exploration. From what data I could gather from Lexins head, their company has outpost on thirty five planets, those resources and connections would be very useful for our future plans. I trust you will have no problem with this?" Alex questioned with a bored tone.

Sarah knew she should have been upset at the prospect of hunting down and devouring her mother yet all she could do was feel pride at the thought Alex trusted her. "No problem at all," Sarah said with a smile...

Another question for my readers, would you like to see other chapters like this? Where we focus on some Mercers evolved and their attitudes or would you rather I create a secondary story where I post chapters with the thoughts and activities of the evolved as they begin?
