Again Fate's A Bitch!
"No justice I am NOT going to leave you! Don't do it!" I cried out to him as I reached behind me. "Rav'us! Let go! We can't leave him!" I was being carried upwards inside his ship. Justice looked back with a grin and yelled "You take care of her or I'll come back and haunt you after death." There was a swarm of Xeno's coming towards the ships and he was staying back to give us time to escape. I gave one last cry before the metal doors closed and the ship toke off from the stars. I was crying and beating on the metal door as if my life depended on it but all it did was serving to tire me out and I ended up sitting on the floor next to it."
I found myself muttering darkly about anything and everything. Why does it seem that I'm the one watching people die? Why is it that I am so dame lucky? "This isn't luck it's a curse to watch all the people you care about die before your very eyes." I hit my head against the wall. I did this for days, hours, weeks. Who knows really for how long? When you're in space you don't keep the same track of time.
Finally Rav'us got sick of it and slapped me. I looked up to him while holding my face" W what? Why did you slap me?" I yelled back. He grunted" Because you are acting like prey right now. You did not act like prey before but now you are acting weak. Do not let your lost destroy you, you fight harder instead" he said this as he pulled me up and led me into an area with weapons and things" this is where we will train. For now on you will fight whatever anger and sadness you are feeling. You will fight me." He walked to the other side and made a fighting stance.
I looked at him like he was crazy. There was no way I was going to fight him. "No Rav'us. I will not fight you. You'll beat my ass and I'm too tired of fighting." Rav'us shook his head, his black and green dreads moving as he did so. "I know you feel pathetic and beaten. What with your idioticness, it's a wonder you haven't gotten yourself killed." I glared at this" When have you become an ass hole, huh! All my life I have to prove myself to conceded assholes like you!" I charged at him. I knew he wanted to make me mad so I'd get my aggression and anger out. I punched and kicked at him but never landed a punch.
He always found a way to dance away from them. I fought with him for hours until finally I just stopped and sank to my knees. "They are gone. My planet is gone" He put his hand on my shoulder" Your planet would not have been saved. It was a lost cause so we destroyed it. Im sorry but now you stay with me until I find you a new place to live." He stated and numbly I followed him to my room. He put my hand in a console and I lay in a bed made of furs.
I slept for a long time and when I woke up I felt at peace and more calm. I sat up and looked around my room. It was made of a grey, cold steal but it was shinny and not dull. I touched the wall above my alien bed. It was cool and warm at the same time. I saw no windows and no decoration: Just a bed and whatever in the celling that illuminated everything with light. I looked down at the fur and touched it. It was very soft and its coloring was a blackish green color.
The door slide open and I jumped up. Rav'us stepped in." Ah, finally little one you are awake." He motioned for me to follow him and I did without asking questions. I figured I keep my mouth shut I don't have to do anything impossible. He led me into a huge room with food in it. He gave me what looked like purplish looking fruit and dried up meat. I raised a brow." You expect me to eat this and not to be asked what the hell this is.? Now I know you have lost it."
He chuckled in the alien way again"No little one, this-". He held up the purple looking thing" is fruit." He then pointed to the dried up looking meat thing." This is meat. Also this is water" he handed be a huge cup full of blue liquid." I slowly drank some; it had a sweet but pure taste to it. I drank about half of it before stopping. It seemed like years since I had something to drink and eat. I eat till the feeling of wanting more vanished and I sat back content with life for a moment.
Then I look down. Why should I be happy? Everything and everyone I know have been evaporated into thin air. So why should I be? No, of course I should be right now. Rav'us is right, I've mourned enough and I have bigger things to worry about. The Bigger, green and brown alien things to worry about. Im just not sure what to do now, if I knew I would get ready but do they even have job search in the predator race?
"I see you are better. Good we will start your training next cycle until then I will show you the ship and explain things." He then smiled or at least I think he did. "Shay'na how about you get out of those wet and tattered things you called clothes. And maybe to clean?" He asked. My eyes lit up, a bath? Oh hell yeah! "Of course I would love to take a bath." I stood up and he led me to this mini pool. "Oh my Rav'us It's so big!" He then said with an amused trill. "Was that the look you gave me when we first met? Was that not a looking of attraction?" He teased. I didn't answer him. I thought predators didn't have a sense of humor? Just my luck.
I walked inside. He quickly showed me how it worked and what do when I was done. I gave him a look and pointed to the door when he didn't immediately leave. "I am not undressing while you're in here." He shook his head as he was leaving. When he was just outside the door he said "It's not like I haven't seen you naked before." I stood there with a twitchy face but the bath was too appealing to just leave so I opted for a bath instead of revenge, for the moment anyway.
