The Spaces In Between

by tristine2015

Riki and Iason are brought back to life one year after the devastation of Dana Bahn. No longer regarded as a pet life should be bliss but sadly that's not the case. A few weeks along Riki finds out that he's pregnant as a new storm of trouble grasps hold of Ceres. A world of mysteries unfold as Jupiter schemes in the quite, new powers and a new leader rises under the name of Fate.

7. Chapter 7

Jupiter the brain that fostered every function of Midas watched everything reel as though it were clock work in motion. And so the die had been cast but sadly she wasn't the caster on the contrary she had nothing to do with it. One who fought with all he had all for this never to occur was the one she was to thank, and sadly, also the one she was bent on destroying even now.

Guy…

The very name alone irked her. But she tried to be reasonable, tried to create the counter balance. He was the one that started this crude chain of events and he had her deepest gratitude. But his role in this was through and it was now time for her to take the reins. So many years ago the residents of Midas had tried to start a revolution and as a result she gave then the so called freedom that they want at the expense of all their connections to Midas. They had failed royally hence the slum that now existed in the ninth area at the out shirts of Midas.

But here a revolution she had never expected was happening in the very heart of her nest, a union between a mongrel from the slum and her most favored son Iason. She was at odds with the sudden turn of events, caught at the cross roads of whether to eradicate the creature or embrace it. This could be the start of something major that could swing for even the better or the worst right, now it could work either way.

But with the unrest in Ceres growing even more viral the possibilities swirling in her data bank seemed endless.

For now she would have to watch closely at this new development. So far according to the results from the test she had privately incorporated in Raoul's examinations the exponential rise in Iason's fertility rate was just a beginning of more phenomenal changes in both Iason and Riki.

Yes…phenomenal changes she could use to her advantage in the long run. But what could have caused it? She knew their deaths played a significant role in their rebirth the aware of separation the loss of Riki could bring must have trigged something that dragged his latent potentials to the surface. But to want to cling to Riki even in death…exactly how enthralled by the mongrel had he been?!

The thought still bugged her system but none the less she would accept things as they now stood especially since she had more important things to consider, like possibly how to defuse a potential war in case Ceres decided to revolt under the command of the new ruler or how to eradicate Guy before he caused future disasters.
