Chapter

Antonia
knelt there, frozen, unsure what to do, Luke came up behind her,
"Antonia,
did they take her"
"Yes"
tears ran down Antonia's face
"Oh
god, Antonia, I'm so sorry, we'll get her back I promise" Luke put his
arms around her. He picked her up and they went back to base.
The
Krygon dumped Maybelle on the ground of the ship, the others all stared at her,
"What
is this" the Krygon General asked
"The
friend of Difinity. We can trade her for the planets surrender"
"Interesting and what if they refuse" asked the
Krygon General
"We
torture and kill her" Maybelle trembled in the corner
"What are you doing here" Fifi
asked as she came back onto the bridge "oh did they kidnap you, I'm
surprise they haven't tortured you yet, you know I've seen what they can do and
it's brutal"
"Surprised
they haven't done the same to you" Maybelle replied
"Why
would they, I'm on their side"
"Well
that's either going to get you killed or locked up into a high security
cell"
"I
don't think so Maybelle, when I've finished I will be the ruler of everyone
with Luke by my side" Fifi laughed
"That
will never happen, Luke will never want you, also Antonia has told everyone
what you have done, you are now a wanted criminal, and your parent's have even
been arrested"
"You're
lying" Fifi violently grabbed Maybelle
"No
I'm not I saw them, and your Mother is never getting out"
"Why
not"
"She's
admitted to starting the Astrithian War"
"Ahh"
Fifi screamed and threw Maybelle against the wall with her power
"What
is going on" the Krygon General asked
"She's
a lying bitch" Fifi scold
"No
I'm not, your Mother is in prison for life and so will you once all this is
over" Maybelle stood up
"Shut
up" Fifi choked Maybelle who dropped to her knees
"That
is enough Fifi, she is valuable, we will trade her the planets surrender"
the Krygon General stepped in
"She's
not valuable, she's nothing, no one will trade for her" Fifi stated,
Maybelle smiled then pulled out a gun, the same gun Antonia had given her and
shot three Krygon's and Fifi before running off through the ship.
"We'll
get her back Antonia, I promise" Crystal said after Luke told everyone
what had happened,
"If
they haven't already killed her"
"Arnold"
Seraphina shot out "Don't talk like that, Antonia I'm sure she's still
alive, they will hopefully want to trade her"
"If
they do then they won't want anything but the planet and our surrender"
Luke put in
"We
have to get her back Luke, she's like a sister to me" tears streamed down
her cheeks
"Antonia
we will get her back, I won't rest until she is safe at home" Luke kissed
her and put his arms around her again
"I
know, I don't want her getting tortured" she cried into his shoulder
"General
Alcatech any ideas" Crystal asked
"I
will get one of the ships to try and get a map to the main Krygon ship, see if
there is any chance we can infiltrate it"
"Ok
let me know as soon as you do"
"Yes
General" General Alcatech left the room.
Maybelle
held her gun out as she turned a corner on the main Krygon ship, she slowly
made her way down another corridor. The ship was dark and gloomy, it was cold
and lights flickered on and off, scary noises came from the distance. She
trembled and shivered, she needed to find somewhere to hide until she could get
off the ship. She heard a noise then shot down three more Krygons , she ran
round two more corners as quick as she could before more Krygons turned up. She
stopped to catch her breath before hearing another noise,
"Pisst"
she looked around knowing it wasn't a Krygon
"Pisst"
Another
Krygon jumped out at her and knocked her to the ground, a tall figure then shot
down the creature and grabbed Maybelle's hand
"With
me" came a deep dreamy voice, they ran through the ship and into a small
hidden room,
"Are
you ok" the mystery person asked
"No
I feel dizzy, really dizzy" she grabbed his arm then passed out
"Am I going to get any help over
here" Fifi asked
"Here
patch yourself up, any of our medicine will kill you" the Krygon General
threw some bandages at her. She patch herself up.
"I
need to get back home, there's a whole hospital cabinet in my Fathers
bathroom" Fifi said struggling to stand up
"We'll
get you there but we will have to wait for the cover of darkness, we should be
able to get a ship there unnoticed"
"Does
your ship have an invisibility booster" Fifi asked
"Yes,
why"
"Well
I have a big garden maybe we could use my house as cover to get onto the
planet"
"Not
bad Miss Epson, not bad"
"Thank
you General. Oh god, darkness better come soon" Fifi said breathing
through the pain she was in "that bitch is dead when I get hold of
her"
Maybelle
slowly came round, she was lying on the floor with a dirty sheet over her. She
sat up to find a tall slim ruggedly handsome man working on a computer, she
grabbed her gun and pointed at him
"Who
are you" she asked, the man turned around
"Don't
shoot, I promise I won't hurt you, I'm not on their side, I'm a prisoner just
like you" he told her
"Really"
"Yes
, if we work together we can both get off this ship" he took a step
towards her "Please put the gun down"
Maybelle
hesitated but finally lowered her gun,
"What's
your name" the man asked her
"Maybelle"
"Pretty,
I'm Coby" he turned back to the computer
"I'm
trying to reprogram one of the escape pods, they are currently programmed to
land on the nearest planet, I'm trying to get it to take me to Astrith"
"Your
an Astrithian"
"Yes
I am and you're an Arizonian" Coby told her
"State
the obvious" Maybelle said moving over to the computer, as she did she
noticed parts of his body where horrendously scarred, but he still looked
handsome and Maybelle couldn't help being attracted to him
"How
did you get here" she asked
"I'm
part of the Astrithian Army, there was an unknown object in our planet's orbit,
I flew out to see what it was, the next thing I know I'm waking up in the
Krygons Torture Chamber" Coby replied
"Oh
Coby I'm so sorry, is that how you got your em...scars"
"Yes
it is" he carried on "I've been here three years now, surprised I'm
still alive" he looked at Maybelle to see a tear roll down her cheek
"Don't
cry Maybelle" he told her gently
"I'm
sorry I can't imagine how this has effective you, you must be so broken"
she wiped her eyes
"I
am a little bit, but it's not going to destroy my life, I'm not going to let
it, when I get out of here I'm going to live a nice quiet life or maybe go
travailing or live on a different planet" he looked at Maybelle "I've
not quite made up my mind yet" he looked at her worried face "I will
get you out of here Maybelle, we will go to Astrith and get help for your
planet, I've seen their army and one army is not enough to defeat them, they'll
wipe you all out" Coby told her
"I
wouldn't be so sure" Maybelle told him
"What
makes you say that"
"My
friend, Antonia"
"And
what is so special about your friend" he asked
"She's
the next Difinity" Maybelle told him. Cody looked at her astonished.
