Alias Uncovered
Chapter 4: Alias Uncovered
The rest of the day I cannot get those two out of my head. The Chief was so eager for us to seize the ship but once we docked his attention grew for only the child. * Leave it alone Jack * my curiosity always gets the best of me. A Flight Officer is usually given clearance to all sectors, yet I'm not going to draw attention to myself. I wait until night falls and head to the holding cells. The guard clears me to go inside and I stand looking at her, sleeping or so I think.
"Who are you?" I ask firmly. She opens her eyes and doesn't bother to turn around. She hangs back with the answer, looking at the ceiling.
"My name is Saia, where's my son?" she stands walking closer to me.
"I don't know, but I'm sure he's fine." * I think * Quietly she studies me, looking in my eyes. This doesn't make me uncomfortable at all. * Is she a pirate? *
"No" she answers * Wait, I didn't ask her anything *
"What?" I ask
"No, I'm not a pirate" she walks back and sits on the metal bench. "I'm a Kyie... a psyche" * Holy shit! So it"s true *
"From the planet Kyiebu, yes I heard about it. There can' be but a handful of you left,"I say, interested in hearing more.
"Yes my family was killed after the incident" *The incident? Of course Federation had decided the Kyie's were dangerous people. They were known for their psychic powers and telepathic abilities. So they decided to rid themselves of the whole race* Once more she stands up and comes close to me and speaks in only a whisper. "You have to help us, my son is in danger here. If we are not released soon many will die" she looks desperate, but there's nothing I could do.
"I'm sorry, I can't help you" my voice faint, mostly because I wish there was something I could do. In the distance I can hear the guards approaching. I turn to leave and that's when it happens.
"Please help us... Jack" I freeze were I stand, I can't move, for a second I think she's using her telepathic powers on me but she's not, I turn to face her.
"What did you call me?" my heart is pounding so hard I think she can hear it.
"Get us out of here and I will take you to him, no one has to die" her eyes dart behind me and I turn to look, the Chief is standing there with a pissed off face.
"Visit's over Officer, go back to your quarters" the calm in his voice is disturbing. My head is spinning and I can't feel my feet moving but they are, somehow I make it back to my room. Deacons already in bed but hears me come in * Damn loud ass airlocks * I really didn't want to explain anything right now.
"Nyla are you OK? You look sick" he crouches down next to me. My mouth opens and tears stream down my face.
"She knows" is all I can muster out. He looks at me confused, slowly I explain to him what just happened. He tells me she must have glimpsed inside my head; psyches after all are capable of doing such things. But what about "Him"? How could she possibly know about him? I tell Deacon I have to get some rest; my head is pounding. We both go to sleep.
~~~~~ Saia is running, holding the child in one arm, gun drawn in the other. Blood is everywhere. Guards are screaming holding their heads, literally banging them on the ground trying to rid themselves of the nightmare she placed inside them. The ones that she doesn't shoot she simply makes crazy. Everything is moving so quickly around me, it seems like I'm moving in slow motion. A skiff maneuvers its way towards Saia and lowers the ramp, the child runs with opens arms towards the skiff. Everything is foggy, I can only see the lower body of the person at first, combat boots, black cargo pants, my eyes move up slowly, black jacket. My heart is caught in my throat as my eyes meet the shinning orbs of Riddick. He's staring right at me, Saia runs right past him, fleeing inside the skiff. He speaks in a low gravel tone, regardless of all the noise of cries and shots I can still hear him.
"Get ready Jack, I'm coming" in a flash he's in front of me ~~~~
I wake up screaming. Deacon is already by my side. I can feel the sweat trickling down my forehead. The darkness of the room only contributes to my fear, but I relax when I hear Deacon's voice.
"Relax girl it was just a dream" he rubs a wet towel on my forehead *I love him sometimes * My breathing levels and I lay my head back on the pillow. "Hey, who's Riddick, anyway?" he asks *Shit *
I shake my head hoping he'll leave it alone ~ he does.
To be continued...
