Haman: indeed as this time we see the fight for freedom
Firem78910: onwards
Chapter 1
Fight for Freedom
The group now armed and ready to fight off their captors.
Luz lagged behind since she came back for the headset, staff and cape. She puts the staff away and held her pistol hoping that she didn't have to use it.
Eda looked at the group. Lilith and the Blight girl seems ready to fire along with the unknown male being.
The other females looked nervous… ok maybe not the Triplatian and the Pre-FTL Plant Girl they look like they're ready for a scrap.
Ok kiddos the Varioaks are coming for us so be ready to fire. Eda said.
Lilith, Blight and the Triplatian nodded.
The humans on the other hand didn't understand Eda.
Eda raised an eyebrow before facepalmed.
"Oh right they don't have Trans-Sets." Eda said.
"We'll worry about that later right now we need to cause more chaos." Lilith said.
"You're right Lily. Let's do this." Eda said.
The group soon found a batch of Varioaks with stun guns and stun batons.
"Alright then Amity on my mark we fire the Pulse Rifles." Lilith said.
"On it!" The now named Amity as she held her rifle at the Varioaks.
Hunter mimicked both Lilith and Amity now ready to fire.
The uniformed aliens looked at Hunter but soon they aimed at the smugglers.
They then fired at the Varioaks. The others with guns soon began to fire at their slavers.
Soon the Dryad and the Triplatian charged at the Varioaks slaying them with their melee weapons.
Eda had to stop firing her large weapon as to not hurt the others.
"Damn it you two! I can't use the suppressor with those two fighting up close and personal!" Eda said.
"Shut up and get another weapon and fire!" Hunter said as he scored more headshots.
Though Eda didn't understood him she had a good idea she grabbed a nearby stun gun.
Lilith took noticed at Hunter prowess she was impressed.
"Huh good we should make to get him recommend him to the academy." Lilith said.
"Need I remind you that he is a part of a Pre-FTL race!" Amity exclaimed.
"We'll worry about that later Amity! Just keep firing!" Lilith said.
Hunter continued to fire at the smugglers. However this soon ended as bigger Varioaks with bigger guns.
Oh hell we got security forces here! Eda shouted.
Masha fired her sniper rifle when one got to close to the basilisk Masha stabbed a Varioak at the chest.
The Varioak noticed the knife in Masha's hand and panicked it tried to reach for a patch only for it to stop moving it's visage was one of pain.
Masha looked at what they had done and started to panic. Luz saw this and tried to comfort her. But Masha didn't move a smuggler charged at Masha only for the basilisk stabbed them and opened her mouth and light came from Varioak drained the life from its eyes.
Masha snapped out of it and smiled.
"Masha! Keep firing at them!" Hunter said.
Masha nodded as they aim her sniper rifle at the others.
All the while Camila fired a few potshots at them. Camila took cover and Luz fired. She saw the Dryad and Triclops still used their melee weapons with grace and fury.
"Gah!" Hunter grunted as he held his shoulder the wound cauterized due to it being a plasma shot.
"MIJO!" Camila shouted as she rushed to her son's side.
"Mama I'm fine." Hunter said.
Camila shook her head.
"You know you can't lie to me Mijo. Shut and let me patch that wound." Camila said as she did that.
Eda got close to Camila and Hunter and gave them a box.
Camila opened the box and saw what looked like a needle with a solution in it. Camila had a hunch at what it did and she couldn't be picky about it.
Camila was hesitated a bit but Hunter nodded at his adopted mother.
"Do it mama use it!" Hunter said as Camila injected the solution into Hunter's Arm. After a bit the shoulder healed.
Hunter tested the arm and shoulder. He then began to fire again.
Soon a single scared Varioak holding what looked like an overcomplicated nail gun. Since the Varioak loaded what looked like well nails.
Eda's eyes went wide as she recognized it.
"Oh by Starlit Fuckery. That's a fucking RIVET GUN!" Eda shouted.
"A RIVET GUN! Those thing have been banned in the galaxy hell even Varioaks voted for the ban for Stars Sakes." Lilith said.
I know I want to know how the hell he got that! Eda said as she ducked from a white hot rivet flew by.
Masha fired a shot but it went wide.
Another rivet was shot. But it was stopped by the Basilisk by opening her mouth causing the rivet to stop.
Masha was shocked at this but soon got down to cover along with the Basilisk.
Hunter tried to get him but couldn't get a shot in.
The same could be said with Amity, Lilith and Eda.
The Varioak looked around and saw that Luz was undefended the Varioak took aim and fired three shots.
Luz noticed too late and was about to be hit.
"LUZ!" Camila said as she takes the shots meant for Luz.
"MAMA NO!" Luz shouted as she sees Camila hit by the rivets.
Luz sees Camila on the ground bleeding.
"Nononononononono." Luz said as she tried to put pressure on the wounds.
"Mija." Camila said
"No hablas mama. Save your strength we can save you." Luz said.
"Luz I am so sorry for trying to change who you are." Camila said.
"Mama." Luz said as she cried.
Luz kept pressure on the wound. Hoping that maybe she can save her mom. She saw that she was getting weaker. Luz prayed hoping that someone, something. Hell anything. She would literally sell her soul to space Lucifer right now. Just to save her mom.
No soul needed.
Luz heard a voice but found no one.
The Neruoformer, the headset use it.
Luz dug through her pockets to find it.
"Place it on the side of your head. You can save your mother."
"Ok if it can save her I'll do it. Masha!" Luz said as Masha ran towards Luz with Basilisk right behind her.
Oh man this is bad. Masha said as she sees a Paling Camila.
"Keep the pressure on the wound I have an idea on how to save her." Luz said she shows the Neruoformer.
"How the fuck is a headset gonna save Camila!" Masha said.
Luz didn't say as Luz places the Neruoformer on her head.
At first there was nothing. Then came the pain. Luz screamed in agony but then in a moment it stopped as Luz's eye closed.
"Luz?" Masha said.
At that moment Luz's eyes snapped open. Her eyes no longer had her golden brown eyes but now they pure white.
"Masha keep the pressure on just a bit longer." Luz said her voice reverbed.
Masha was shocked as she felt the power in the Latina's voice.
Luz looked at her mother then raised her staff and creates a metallic heart, an eye and a pair of lungs. They disappeared and in their place was Camila's original heart, eye and lungs.
"By the goddess, how?" Masha asked.
Luz just smiled.
"You can stop now Masha." Luz said.
Masha was confused for a bit until then felt that the holes that was caused by the rivets were gone.
"Holy shit how did you do that?" Masha asked.
Luz taps on the Neuroformer.
"Ok… I'm just gonna say that thing gave you space magic." Masha said in a flat tone.
Luz then turns to the Varioaks with a death glare at them. She raised her staff and a wave of power washes over her friends and the friendly aliens.
The two melee fighters be rage turned into unbridled fury. The shots made by the gunslingers are far more accurate shots.
Luz did not stay idle. She fired beams of fire, messes with technology, plants appeared out of nowhere, several Varioaks were frozen solid, and the weapons they became weaker.
At first Eda wonders what the hell is going on only to see the Neuroformer on Luz's head.
"Oh fuck me. That's an Archotech Neuroformer!" Eda said.
"ARCHOTECH! HOW THE FUCK DID THEY GET THAT?!" Lilith shouted.
"I haven't got a damn clue! Why ask me!" Eda said.
YOU'RE THE ARCHOTECH EXPERT HERE?!" Lilith exclaimed.
"Fair enough sis." Eda said with a shrug.
Luz walk towards the smugglers and summons two shields of fire. The Dryad freaked out but the Triplatian smiles as she rushes towards her foes. The Dryad touches the shield and finds out she didn't get burned. She smirks and charges towards the enemy. Whether it was due to the fire or their mastery of their weapons. The Varioaks started to run out of fear.
It was then that more Varioaks appears the Willow took some seeds from out of her clothes she mutters a few words and then tosses them she grabs the Triplatian and runs back to the group as patch of briar bushes appeared to block them off.
Luz sees them as used her new found power to strengthen the Briar bushes makes the stems thicker and the thorns sharper.
Eda sighs in relief as she walks towards Luz.
"Hey kid, you ok?" Eda asked.
Luz was silent at first but then spoke.
"I… feel hot… my head mostly." Luz said clutching her head.
"Damn it." Eda cursed knowing what that meant.
Luz must had realized that she must have understood Eda.
"What… does that mean?" Luz asked.
"You're reaching your Neural Heat Limit. From what I can sense you got enough for one big Psycast." Eda said.
Luz nods as she turns towards the Briar bushes ready to cast the Psycast.
Soon the Briar bushes fall as Luz used the Psycast as she made the Varioaks disappears.
After that Luz falls fainting as her eyes stop glowing.
This time everyone sighs in relief as they relax. Hunter slowly lays Luz on her back and checked for her pulse.
"Gracias a dios. She's still alive." Hunter said as Eda walked towards Hunter.
"Uh kid we need to heal her." Eda said.
Hunter stood guard. Eda sighs knowing that she can't speak to them.
"Alright then. King, Hooty can you hear us." Eda said.
"I'm here and I found the Varioaks." Hooty said.
"Where are they?" Eda said.
"Outside." Hooty said in a serious tone.
Eda raises an eyebrow she takes a look. Only to find them outside of the ship.
"Well shit… uh Lily what do we do with this ship?" Eda asked.
"Uh I guess according to regulations you can keep them and everything in the ship." Lilith said.
"Good sell this ship and it's contents and give two-thirds to the Psycaster and we'll divide the last third later." Eda said.
"Mom I just heard and I approve, this Psycaster is this most powerful she must be sent to Hexside." King said.
"Hexside what the hell for?" Eda asked as Amity checked the weapons.
"Simple she used a shit ton of Psyfocus and retained an equal amount of Neural Heat. That amount of Neural Heat would have killed 50 of you mom. Think of what she could do if she masters her powers" King said as he gives his explanation.
Eda raised an eyebrow. Well after what she saw Eda knew that King wasn't wrong. She decides to scan Luz only for her eyes go wide. She had forgoten that King is naturally Psionic. But holy shit was he right. She also thought that King was exaggerating she was pretty sure it would kill like 20 maybe 25 max of her.
"Ok any idea on how to dump this much Neural Heat?" Eda said as she shows Lilith the results of Luz's scan.
"Amity get her to the infirmary, Eda tell your ship to hook up with this ship. We warp to Magili Station!" Lilith said as she gave her orders.
She rounded up those that she couldn't speak galactic basic and placed them in the infirmary.
"Alright then let's do this." Eda said.
Sometime later
Smuggler ship Infirmary
The Humans, Dryad and Basilisk were all at the infirmary.
Hunter was looking as his gun, The Dryad stayed by Hunter's side, Masha and Basilisk were together and finally Luz and Camila were on medical beds still knocked out.
"The silence was deafening." Until Masha spoke.
"Ok… I think we should talk about Luz's… Space Magic?" Masha said.
"You mean her Psionics yeah we should talk about this." Hunter said as he puts down the gun.
"Yeah I mean as she puts on that thing on her head she like became a goddess." Masha said.
"Maybe it's a onetime thing." Hunter said.
"Well whatever Luz did it was awesome though… I wish it didn't cause Camila to get hurt." Masha said.
"I know though considering where she was shot it was necessary." Hunter said.
"Yeah a shot to a lung, heart and eye, Luz somehow replace them with robot parts." Masha said.
"Cybernetics. But at least mom is alive." Hunter said as he gave a sad smile.
Masha also looked sad. But the Basilisk and Dryad went towards Hunter and Masha and hugged them.
They were surprised but soon they stopped moving and allow the aliens to hug them.
Soon they separated and Hunter decided to check on Luz. He touched her forehead. It was hot to the touch.
"Damn. Looks like Luz has a fever. Must be from the Psionic powers she used." Hunter said.
"Shit I hope it goes down like it does in Rimworld." Masha said knowing that it reminded her of that game.
Soon the ship shook and stopped. Hunter opened the door to see a tall, muscular man with dark brown skin, bright green eyes, and abomination-like hair. He has an amorphous hair bun with an abomination's eye, and similarly amorphous sideburns and a goatee.
He wears a black chest plate with a gold collar, purple studs and pointed shoulders, light purple pants, white mid-length gloves, and white-heeled boots with violet toes. He also wears a magenta side cape.
Hunter panicked but the man touched Hunter's head with a pink glowing hand. Hunter calmed down.
With the other hand it had done the same. The other three were in a state of calm.
"Alright then gather the young ones." The man said.
"Yes sir!" A nearby solder said as he picked up Hunter.
The solders picked up the others as medics took Luz and Camila.
"So what do we have?" Medic 1 asked.
"The younger one is near her Neural Heat Limit and with older one however… well judging by the extracted organs it looks like an ocular organ, circulatory organ and a respiratory organ were removed." Medic 2 said.
"I'm pretty sure the last two are needed to live. For any species" Medic 1 said.
"I know that's why the kid replaced them with Archotech" models. Medic 2 said.
"ARCHOTECH?!" Medic 3 said.
"Well the younger one has an Archotech Psylink Neuralformer." Medic 2 said.
"That would explain the high Neural Heat Limit." Medic 3 said.
"Well then let's get them fixed and get Trans-sets on them." Medic 1 said.
The other medics nodded at they took them to their destination.
Magili Station.
Firem78910: with that chapter done we seen the humans fight and Luz went full Biot- I mean Psionic goddess on the smugglers
Haman: Camila also received some Archotech parts and now everyone is now at the Magili Station but until next time
