Sakura and Setg'in ran to the center of the city, Setg'in was uncloaked and she had now a spear and a mask, she was already feeling like a tough warrior. Setg'in killed a few Xenomorphs on the way with his plasma caster trying to lure them for the center where he would program his remote bomb. Sakura follow him very close always focus, trying not to die so soon, she hadn't kill anything yet.

'He's so big, fast, strong, deadly, brave… he seems so damn perfect! What am I thinking? What If, he read minds?' Sakura thought feeling silly for thinking such things in a time like this.

"Don't stay behind silly Ooman! Move faster! And try not to die." Setg'in made her awake from her thoughts. She made his work much more difficult and slower, but for some odd reason he was enjoying her company. Setg'in was a loner in hunts since he become an Elite, before that he hunted in a pack of three.

"I'm coming!" She answered trying to move faster so she wouldn't stay behind.

After what it seemed forever running to Sakura, Setg'in finally found a perfect hidden place to put the bomb, he program it to exploded in 20 minutes. Sakura was on guard and Steg'in was crouched placing the bomb when Xenomorph tried to sneak on him to pierce him with its tail from behind.

"Setg'in!" Sakura shouted while running to try to save him. Before the creature could pierce him Sakura stab it first with the spear, fortunately none of them was it by the acid blood. The creature was still moving, so Sakura stab the spear deeply on the creature torso making it die. She took the spear leaving the dead body on the ground, her body trembled.

Setg'in turned to see what happen; he was shocked by the scenario. 'I let my guard down! This never happen! This behavior is expected from an inexperienced hunter not me! That silly Ooman save my life, I feel so grateful yet so pathetic.' He thought mad at himself.

"Sakura!" Setg'in called her getting up.

"Is the first time you say my name…" She acknowledged him, realizing it was the first time he pronounced her name.

"Maybe you're becoming worthy." He growled softly, not wanting to admit that he was feeling proud of this human. Sakura smiled and blushed behind the mask, she too proud of herself.

Setg'in finally put the bomb in the planned place.

"Sakura!" He called her to catch her attention, making her turn to face him. He cut a finger with a little acid blood on the tip from the Xenomorph she had just killed. "Show me no pain. Take off your mask." He demanded, raising the finger from the dead creature.

Sakura did it not know what was going to happen but she complied.

Setg'in moved her hair with his finger feeling the softness of her black hair, with the other hand he used the finger with the blood to mark Sakura in her cheek making her gasped because of the burning feeling. Setg'in knew it hurt a little he too had one on his forehead. He raised his chest with pride and made some clicks. He took the mask from her hand and put it on her face himself so she could understand him.

"I told you that maybe you're becoming worthy it." He growled softly. 'Never thought female humans could be such wonderful creatures.' He admitted to himself.

"Thank you." Was all she could say, she was smiling.

"Now let's get back to the ship. Run as fast as you can and do not stop for nothing. This place will be full of Kainde Amedha soon. Follow me don't stay behind!" He barked preparing to leave.

"I got it!" Sakura said, she was tired but she had to follow his orders to survive.

Some more Xenormorphs began to appear and they run as fast as they could. Setg'in killed a few Xenomorphs that come to close with his cannon. After ten minutes running they reach the forest. Sakura was tired with all this running; Setg'in noticed she was getting behind.

"Faster ooman! Are you that weak silly ooman?" He barked trying to tease her to make her move faster.

"I'm not weak! And I'm not a silly ooman!" She shouted almost out of breath.

"Then prove me! Show me you're worthy, silly oomam!" He was getting on her nerves and he liked to see her reactions.

"That's it!" Sakura screamed furious, running so fast that she almost passed him. Setg'in was laughing inside his mind, she was furious and he thrilled with that. 'Damn hot alien pissing me off! I'll show him! I'll show them all!' Sakura curse in her thoughts.

Setg'in was laughing inside his mind, she was mad and he thrilled with that. 'Funny silly ooman, who is triggered by teasing.' Setg'in thought amused.

They finally reached the ship, Sakura was almost out of breath, she looked at him amazed how he didn't looked tired at all. Four Xenomorphs followed them and burst out of the bushes.

"Get in the ship fast!" Setg'in barked at her preparing his cannon.

"How about you?" Sakura asked concerned, he had stayed behind.

"Now!" He growled loud, getting ready for battle.

Sakura did what he demanded; she didn't what to get him mad in a time like this, besides he seemed to have a short temper.

Setg'in killed the Xenomorphs with his cannon and his disks, after making sure they were dead he got to the ship, Sakura was in the hall waiting for him, he ran to the end of the hall where the room with the controllers of the ship were. He sit on the chair closed the door put the coordinates that would take them to the mother ship and it took off. Sakura went to his side; she saw her city being completely erased from the map on the large window. Setg'in got up after activating the auto pilot.

Setg'in was now facing his soon to be new member of his clan, if she survives his clan.

"Good job Sakura." He growled softly at her.

"Thank you… for everything…" She said lowering her head, realizing how lucky she was for being able to survive. Setg'in nodded his head and made his way to the entrance. "Setg'in wait!" She shouted making him turned around. "I-I don't know how you do it or call it… but… hum… I really need to… hum… pee and take a shower…" She mumbled blushing.

Setg'in noticed her body heat increased for some reason. But he understood what she wanted.

"Follow me." He made a sign with his hand.

She followed him to his quarters; inside of his bedroom was another door, inside was a huge shower, something that look like a toilet and some kind of cabinet, she thought that they were not so different from humans besides their materials look different in aspect.

"Make yourself comfortable." He growled softly before leaving her so she could have more privacy.

Sakura began to take off her clothes, the black tank top, shorts, military boots style and mask. She realized that she didn't know how to turn on the water 'Shit! How these things work? I can't call him now, I'm naked! Well done Sakura…' Sakura sighed to herself. She began to look for something, after a while she found two buttons insert in some kind of touch screen, she pressed one and water began to ran all over her 'Ah! Too cold! Don't they have hot water?' Then she pressed the other and warm water began to run 'Aaah… Perfect!' She finally began her shower.

Setg'in was in the meals room he thought the human should be hungry 'Oomans should like this.' He thought looking at the fruits storage. But then he began to think on one thing that he never should think about. 'I wonder how this ooman looks naked… Her skin is so soft. For an ooman she's not bad. Why am I thinking about these stupid things? ' He wanted to hit with his head on the wall for thinking such things.

"Setg'in?" She called from the entrance to catch his attention.

He was surprised that she found the meals room, for some odd reason she always finds him. He looked at her; she was wrapped on a towel that she found and with her mask. Setg'in was always controlled but this human made him wondered how would be mating with a human; he was feeling aroused by her. He rapidly erased this feeling knowing it wasn't what an Elite Hunter should be.

"I just remember something…" Sakura grab her towel harder and blushed madly.

"What?" He asked confused, noticing her body temperature increasing again.

"I… Hum… You did so much for me and I never saw your face… So…" She mumbled feeling silly.

"You just want to see my face?" He asked to make sure he understood right.

"Yes! I want to see your face. Can I?" She finally confessed excited.

Setg'in got up coming slowly closer to her just to tease the human, he saw her heart beat started to increase and her body starting to get hotter. He stopped only a few inches away from her. 'This ooman is so strange and weak yet it seems to have a scent so attractive…' he thought.

"Please…" Sakura said almost begging, her curiosity was taking advantage.

'Silly ooman… I can't be attracted to you.' He kept repeating to himself. Setg'in took two tubes connected to the mask and some sort of breathing sound was heard, he put his hands on the mask and started to take it off slowly. Sakura become nervous her heart beat was racing faster. Setg'in took off the mask completely; he made a soft roar when his face became all visible. Now she could see him, his deep yellow eyes, four tusks, little teeth inside his mouth and his big marked forehead. Sakura didn't felt disgusted or scared by his appearance, she was just amazed. Setg'in was considerer a handsome Yautja for his kind but the trophies were more important for Yautja. 'I guess he's not that bad for an alien.' Sakura thought, she was already expecting something different. Sakura reach her hand to touch his face. 'What she's doing now?' He thought confused by these actions. She began to caress his cheek and touching his tusks with one finger making Setg'in purr. 'Looks like his enjoying it.' Sakura thought trying not to chuckle. 'Her touch… Her scent… Feels so good… What am I doing? This is wrong! No!' Setg'in thought realizing what was happening. Suddenly he roared and pushed Sakura away almost slapping her hand. Sakura gasped thinking she had push it too far.

"Leave!" Setg'in roared spreading his mandibles open, he wasn't mad with her, he was mad with himself.

Sakura did as he said and ran to his quarters leaving him alone. 'I shouldn't have done that! That's it! Is going to kill me! Kick me in the ass and put out of his ship!' Sakura began to panic walking back and fort in the bedroom after getting dress.

'I can't let this happen! Yautja and Oomans can't be mates. It's not right!' Setg'in tried to convince himself. 'C'jit! I have to contact the Elder. I need to ask for permission.' Setg'in sat on his chair. He clicked on the interaction panel and waited for the Elder response.

"Gkaun'yte. How did the hunt go?" Elder Za'zin growled appearing on the holographic screen.

"Gkaun'yte, Elder Za'zin." Setg'in said lowering his head, a sign of respect. "The U'darahje was killed and all the Kainde Amedha are dead. No evidences were left behind, the plasma bomb was activated. The Pyode Amedha are no more in danger of extinction." He informed the elder of the succeeded mission.

"Well done Setg'in. Your truly are one of my best Elite Hunters." Za'zin said clicking his mandibles, proud of his hunter.

"Thank you Elder." Setg'in growled softly nodding. "There's another thing." He new the Elder wouldn't like it. Za'zin waited for him to continue. "I bring an Ooman with me." Setg'in finally confessed.

"An Ooman? Did you lose your mind Setg'in? Leave it on the planet!" Za'zin growled angrily. If Elder Za'zin could, he would jump of the screen and punched Setg'in in the face.

"She wants to be part of our clan. She's welling to prove herself at all costs. Besides, she killed a Kainde Amedha and I mark her." Setg'in said trying to convince him that she could be worthy.

"What? Setg'in, our relationship with the Oomans is not the same…" Za'zin growled trying to calm down.

"But some have proved themselves worth living among us and wearing our marks." Setg'in interrupted.

"Indeed..." Elder Za'zin began to think about it.

"I will train her and teach her. I take all the responsibilities." Setg'in said thinking it was the most honorable thing to do.

"I'm no fool Setg'in… I'm old, I have experience and I already see you care for this Ooman." Za'zin growled. As leader he cared for the well-being of his hunters and clan. Setg'in didn't say anything just looked down. "Your silence confirms my suspicions. If she becomes part of our clan, you know you can choose her as your mate…" Za'zin said to see his reaction.

"Is it possible?" Setg'in asked. He knew he shouldn't but he was thrilled to know that.

"Yes. Is not going to be easy… I just know two cases where Yautja choose Oomans as mates. Many may not accept your choice." Za'zin said remembering the Yautja history.

"I never said I want her as my mate…" Setg'in growled knowing the Elder was just testing him.

"Then why did you bring her?" Za'zin asked, he was no fool and knew he was already interested in the human.

"Honor. She killed a Kainde Amedha, a trophy won by Yautja to achieve the title of Young Blood." Now Setg'in was trying to fool himself. "Not many Oomans can kill one with a spear." He said admiring her attitude.

"I see…" Za'zin said thinking about what to do. He knew he was right, Sakura already showed bravery, but Za'zin also knew Setg'in was a honorable hunter, if he brought her was because she was something. "I made my decision. She can be part of our clan if she proves herself to us. Bring her." He growled after a few minutes.

"What about the rest of the clan?" Setg'in asked worried about the reaction of his fellows.

"I deal with them and prepare them for her arrival." Za'zin assured him. 'One more problem for me to worry about.' He thought.

"Thank you Elder Za'zin." Setg'in said bowing his head, not showing he's excitement.

"I hope I don't regret it…" Za'zin sighed.

"You won't Elder. She's my totally responsibility now." Setg'in tried to calm his Elder.

"Don't disappoint me Setg'in." Za'zin growled crossing his arms.

"I won't. Do not question my capacities Elder…" Setg'in growled, he hated when someone doubt him.

"Come back soon." He growled more firmly. Za'zin wasn't in the mood for dealing with his bad temper and insolence so he just closed the call.

Setg'in was sitting in his chair looking trough his front window in his cockpit. 'I have to tell her the news.' He thought getting up and made his way to the quarters.

In the room Sakura was sitting in the chair without her mask lost in her thoughts how she lost her family and how she got to this ship, she began to caress her new mark on her cheek. Setg'in observed for a few time her actions. Sakura became aware of a presence in the room and look right at him. Setg'in put his mask, walked to Sakura and sat on the other chair grabbing her mask and put it on her face so they could talk.

"We need to talk…" Setg'in growled softly.

"You're going to kick me out of your ship…" Sakura sighed feeling gloomy.

"Is not that… You're allowed to come with me." He said thinking that what she just said was silly.

Sakura was so happy she hugged Setg'in, but he pushed her away quickly, growling. Sakura was so overjoyed that she forgot that she shouldn't do those types of feelings.

"Don't touch me ooman!" He warned her with a bark.

"I'm sorry Setg'in I didn't know this was considerer an offense…." Sakura said embarrassed.

"It's not. But is wrong for you touch me like that…" He growled still uncomfortable.

"Why?" She asked confused.

"I have I high position on my kind, call Elite, it's not part of the Yautja being affective around others, only in private or with family members." Setg'in explained her.

"Well… we are alone aren't we?" Sakura said looking around. 'Yautja must be what they call themselves, since the translator didn't translate that. And aren't we alone here?' She wondered.

"Is not like that Sakura. They have to be… mates." Setg'in sighed, trying to explain the human why it wasn't correct. Now reality hit Sakura.

"I'm so sorry I didn't know!" Sakura blushed. 'Damn! He thinks I'm hitting on him! Well, I didn't mind but…' she thought blushing even more.

"I understand. Now, I talked to the Elder of our clan and…" Setg'in began to explain what had happen.

"Yes?" She immediately interrupted, she was too excited.

"Don't interrupt me silly ooman!" He barked hitting the table and making her jump.

"Sorry. Don't call me silly "ooman" again!" She argued back. Sakura was starting to get annoy with this nickname.

"Like I was saying… You can come if you prove you're worthy to the clan. It won't be easy." He warned. 'She's becoming more confident and impertinent.' He thought about her earlier warning.

"So how I'm going to do that?" She asked not knowing what to expect.

"They probably will send you on a hunt." He simple said, for him it wasn't a big deal.

"But I don't know how to hunt!" Sakura started to panic. 'I'm so screwed!' she thought.

"I will train you. You're my responsibility now. I will teach everything about hunting, weapons, strategies, language and our ways." Setg'in said growling softly, he was experienced.

"Nice! And I'm going to be a good student, I promise!" Sakura said. She was so happy. 'I can't believe it! My wish had a good thing after all. But I sacrificed so many people and most important of all… my family.' She felt sad and she began remembering all the good and bad times with her family. Fortunately the mask hide her tears.

"Good. I bet you're hungry. Come on, let's eat." He said remembering she didn't eat anything since they met. Humans needed to eat too.

"Yes, I am…" She confirmed in a low tone waking up of her memories.

They enter in what she supposed it was the kitchen. Sakura sat on the chair next to a round table. Setg'in entered in a big refrigerator and comeback with some piece of meet and something that look like fruit. Setg'in put the plate on the table and sat in front of her.

"You need your strength. Eat." He growled softly.

"Are you sure this is good for me? I mean Yautja and Humans must be different in…" she asked grabbing a purple round fruit that looked like an apple. 'Hope I don't die poisoned.' She thought.

"Are you implying that I ignorant?" He roared angrily almost getting up from rage.

"No!" She shouted realizing that wasn't the smartest thing to say.

"Don't ever doubt me silly ooman! You're my duty! I know what is or isn't good for you! Now eat!" Setg'in growled still angry. He hated when somebody doubt him.

Sakura quickly regret what she said and took off her mask and give a big bite on the purple fruit, she dind't want to upset him more. 'Wow... This actually tastes good! Sweet and have lots of juice! I never taste anything like this.' She though amazed.

"Naxa." He growled pointing at the fruit she was eating.

"Naxa…" She repeated still chewing.

"Amedha." He said with a deep voice pointing at the meat.

"Amedha." Sakura was pronouncing his language correctly this time, she was a quick learner. 'Well I already know how spell fruit and meat I guess…' she thought and giggled.

She ate at least three pieces of fruit. She didn't know what it was but she like it and she felt satisfied. Setg'in only ate one piece of fruit and the meat he knew her body wasn't custom to theses kind of proteins so he would take it slow. They finished eating and put the masks on again.

"You should be tired, go rest. Tomorrow is going to be a big day." He said getting up.

"How so?" Sakura asked curious looking at him.

"We arrive on the mother ship. You can rest in my bed. Now go." He growled. He was giving her an order.

"Alright. Goodnight then." She said getting up. Setg'in just answered with a nod.

She got to his quarters and took off her clothes, leaving only her panties and her mask just in case, she laid down on the bed. 'My life changed so much… Setg'in, besides his bad temper and strange behavior he help me and is trying to make me part of his clan. He makes me feel so safe… What if I'm falling for him? … I wonder how the Yautja anatomy is…' Sakura was feeling a little naughty for thinking these things but she was smiling. After only five minutes Sakura fell asleep.

Setg'in observed her from the door. He entered and sat on one of the chairs in the room she didn't even notice him. 'Her scent is so strong, although she's not in heat. Her skin is so soft.' He already hunted humans so he knew their skin was softer but he was amazed how soft and warm her skin was. Setg'in got up and lay down next to Sakura, she was on her so her front was facing the window; she was all cover with the sheets only her head was outside. He was laying on the his side too, his front facing her back. He put his hand around her waist and pulled himself closer. 'Her scent is so good…' he thought purring feeling her hair with his face. Setg'in began to feel aroused. 'I want her…' he pushed her body to him to feel her better. Then in a flash he got up from the bed 'I can't.' he screamed in his head. Setg'in thought it was better if he rested in the control's room.

Next day, Setg'in was shaking Sakura to wake her up.

"No… Just five more minutes…" She said sleepy not even bothering in open her eyes.

"Get up silly ooman!" Setg'in growled loud purposely in her hear.

"Ah!" Sakura got so scared that she roll out and fell of the bed wrapped in the sheets.

"Silly ooman…" He teased her again chuckling.

"Don't call me that!" She said getting up angry for looking like a fool she even forget she was only on her panties.

Setg'in was thrilled and purred for seeing her like that. Her breasts were perfect, not to big not to small just perfect. 'If I could I would take her now.' He thought aroused but quickly controlled himself. Sakura realized her figure and blushed madly and quick pick up the sheets to cover herself.

"Don't…. Don't wake me up like that again!" She shouted trying to cover her embarrassment.

"Oomans are lazy… You didn't want to wake up. And I don't like to wait." Setg'in growled crossing his arms.

"Who knew…?" Sakura said with a sarcastic tone of voice, but he ignored her.

"Get dress quickly, eat the food on the table and meet me at the room next to these. Move!" He barked preparing to leave.

"Sir, yes sir!" She said with a loud tone, teasing him.

"Silly ooman…" He chuckled entering her little game. He left the room, giving her some privacy.

After a while she was all done, fortunately the doors where automatic, Sakura didn't want to press some button and blow up the ship.

"Finally! You're silly and lazy, ooman." Setg'in growled; he was in the mood for teasing her.

Sakura didn't know about this part of his ship yet, it was full of weapons, armors, masks and more trophies.

"Don't start…" She pouted coming closer to him.

"We're almost arriving to the mother ship…" He said clicking his mandibles.

"I'm not ready!" Sakura gasped already in panic.

"Don't interrupt. I will introduce you as a future member. The first thing you have to know is to be respectful, talk only when somebody talks to you. And never show you're scared. Follow me and do what I say." He explained, he thought it should be simple for her. Sakura waited for him to say something else but he said nothing.

"That's it?" She asked confused.

"For now, yes it is." He answered.

"Alright then…" Sakura said not too sure about it. 'This should be easy. I guess…' she thought.

"The real training will start when we arrive and you learn our language. We're almost there, get ready." He growl turning around to put on some weapons.

"Segt'in…" She called coming closer to him, making him turn around to face her."You… You will never leave me right?" She asked when she was only a few inches away from him.

"What do you mean?" He asked confused and cocked his head to one side.

"You're the only thing I have left in my life… Promise me you never leave me." She said softly trying to look at him in the eyes through their masks.

Setg'in himself was feeling they shared a special connection. He was feeling the need to be with her, keeping her safe, sure he already had mated with a few females Yautja but this was different. Sakura felt the same way, she just wanted to touch him, hug him and never let him go, but she didn't know how to reach for his heart. But they both knew it was too soon for these feelings.

"I would never leave you Sakura…" He promised purring softly. Sakura smiled hugging him and put her head on his chest.

"Don't push me away…" She said softly. 'He's so warm… I never felt like this… I don't want to let go…' she thought.

He said nothing he just wrapped his strong arms around her. 'What is this? I'd never been this soft. But she… she's so different… The more I try to resist, the more I want her.' he thought.

"Sakura…" He purred.

"Setg'in…" She responded his call.

"We have to go… We're almost there." Setg'in growled softly, not wanting to let her go.

"Yeah… I know…" She said 'Argh! Why so soon? This was going so well.' she thought.

After a few seconds they broke apart. Setg'in got to cockpit preparing for landing. Sakura waited in the quarters while Setg'in opened the interface screen to send his verification to land in the mother ship. Sakura felt a few thumps from the ship landing. After a while Segt'in appeared at the room door.

"Come. It's time." He called her.

Sakura just nodded and followed him. It was time to face her new home and family.
