In the cold of space, a small fighter ship was rotating slowly.

Inside, Rakat Dell was dosing in her chair with her feet propped on the dashboard. When suddenly a heavy weight landed in her lap, her eyes flew open and she grabbed at the ZF-1 that Zorg had thrown at her.

"What's this?" her deep voice asked. Zorg sat in the chair opposite her with another gun in his hands.

"This is the newest gun I designed. Based on earlier models, with new additions," Zorg's southern accent sounded proud. He directed Rakat over the gun,

"There is a machine gun, flame thrower, net gun, missile launcher, freeze-cannon and a special replay button that makes bullets follow one previous shot"

Rakat turned the gun over in her hands, not liking the camouflage and sleek shape.

"It's an awful lot to have in a gun," she said frowning, there was a blinking red light on the bottom.

"What's this for?" she asked. Zorg smiled, and then let out a barking laugh. Rakat just frowned.

"Not long ago I said that only a true killer would ask what that function is for" Then he grew quiet, "it's just a self-destruct button"

Rakat just raised her eyebrow,
"Is anything wrong?"

Zorg was silent for a while, then explained what had happened, how he had been contacted my Mr. Shadow to capture four important stones. How he had hired the Mangalores to get them for him, and how they failed. So he had given them the guns, not telling them about the destruct button.

Then he had tried other ways to get to the stones, going to the hotel himself, killing a red haired woman that got in his way. All for nothing, he couln't find the stones and then got blasted by the damn Mangalore leader who he had thought he had killed.

Rakat blinked,

"Do you know what happened to Mr. Shadow?" she asked. Zorg shook his head slowly.

"Probably something big, that's why he's bothering me now. Otherwise I would have died awhile ago"

"Actually, I think I heard something not long ago. While I was getting repairs in Fhloston" Rakat said, she switched on the holoprojecter, that usually help her maps. She switched over to the ultra-net, which was mainly used on ships for gaining news headlines that were missed while in space. She flicked over to the earths headlines where it was filled with the same thing:

Earth escapes disaster!
New moon circling earth!
Civilians in New York were terrified to see a large comet in the sky.
Officials calm people and tell that there is nothing to worry about.
Heroes save earth from doom- Corbin Dallas, an ex-war veteran along with a mystery woman.
Popular radio presenter Ruby Rhod tells his story.

Zorg's mouth dropped.

"So, this 'Shadow' guy had control over this comet thing and was going to crash it into earth?" Rakat asked, very puzzled.

"No, I actually think Mr. Shadow was that comet. If you had heard his voice then you would understand. He doesn't seem to be real, I mean a real person. He just seems… to be evil" Zorg wet his dry lips. Rakat shook her head.

"I've seen a lot of shit, Zorg, but never anything like what you're talking about"

"Have you ever read anything by the old classic author Stephen King?" Zorg asked, Rakat again shook her head, "in many of his books he describes evil. Just evil itself, one entity that can control others and plans to destroy everything"

Rakat switched off the hologram.

"I still won't get my head around it until I see some proof."

Zorg frowned at her; he gathered his gun and went to the back of the ship.

Rakat just adjusted her seat and switched her ship into power. Their next stop was with a friend of Zorg's in the Golden Galaxy, which was a collection of planets belonging to rich people.

She made sure the path was clear and switched to hyper speed.

Sorry it's taken me so long to update.. I'm lazy as --;; But don't worry, I should get some inspiration soon…

Help me :(

I used references to Stephen King because I've read heaps of his books, and they're mostly about evil as a being that's just… evil. I don't know how to explain it... I guess Mr. Shadow is all the evil in the universe. Oh, Stephen King is known as 'classic' in Fifth Element because its set in the future and all :P
