  Truo turned to me and said, “Thank you, Vera. You did not have to do that, so I thank you for saying what you said. It means much to me. It means so much to the tribe. I hope that the High Council will see your truth.”

  "You are welcome. I hate Cyro. He killed my husband. If I can help to bring him down, then I will. He forced himself on me and used my husband as leverage. It is my pleasure to help with this process,” I said to him. He pulled me to him and kissed me on the lips. I kissed him back. It felt good. It felt right.

  "I'm getting an incoming message," Sitione said.

  "Could they be responding so quickly?” Truo said as he moved to Sitione’s side.

  "I don't think so. It must be from someone else,” Sitione said.

  "Play it,” Truo said.

  Another warrior appeared on the screen as the message played and Truo said, “It's Jin.”

  This warrior they called Jin was very anxious on the screen and was whispering, “Truo and Sitione, I hope you get this in time. Word of your revolution has spread, and there is chaos here on Seeduon. There are many that are fighting for you. You were right that many do not believe Cyro is a good leader. But this message is to tell you that Cyro has launched a full-scale assault on you. He is hunting you with over 50 ships. They have left as of 10 minutes ago. I must keep this short. I only wish to warn you and to tell you that there are those that fight for you here. I am going to go into hiding until you return. If I can contact you again, I will. I hope that you receive this,” he said, and then the screen went black.

  "50 ships?” Sitione shouted. “We are dead!”

  "Not yet. Did you not hear that he said many warriors fight for my name? There is hope yet. Thank you, Jin. I am sorry I ever doubted you,” Truo said.

  But I was with Sitione on this business. I was frightened. An assault with 50 ships was crazy. Cyro was crazy. He wanted to kill us.

  Truo was walking back and forth, thinking. I did not know how I could help. I did not understand the ways of battle, especially when it was one very small spaceship against 50 battleships and a crazy leader. We were doomed.

  "Take her out of hyperspeed and change course to the High Council,” Truo finally said after thinking.

  "Are you insane? That will take us to close to Seeduon. Cyro will be in that vicinity,” Sitione said.

  "Yes, it is very risky. I think we should go to Earth. Only there can we disappear,” I blurted out.

  "No, this is good. We take her out of hyperspeed and we change course to the High Council. After what Jin said, that the fortress is in chaos, then the High Council has to see me. They have to see us. They do not want civil battles between Corillion warriors. They already have the great war with the Earth, so they need us to not be fighting amongst each other. They will want to settle this and soon. It is a good plan,” Truo said.

  "It is a dangerous plan,” Sitione said.

  Beep. Beep. Beep.

  "There's another message coming through," Sitione said.

  "Play it. It is the High Council; it has to be,” Truo said.

  Sitione played the message, and there was another Corillion that I had never seen before; he was wearing a long robe.

  "Truo Seeduon, this is Utren of the High Council. You are instructed to report to the High Council immediately. We will hear you plead for leadership over the Seeduon tribe. This is of utmost importance in order to stop the chaos that is happening on your asteroid. We have received your message, and we agree that this is something the High Council should decide. Come as soon as you can. We are waiting."

  Then the screen went black. Truo and Sitione were quiet for some time.

  "What if it is a trap?” Sitione asked.

  "You think they mean to arrest us and blame us for treachery?” Truo asked him.

  "Yes, that's exactly what I think," Sitione said.

  "It is dangerous. It is risky. But we either go, or we go somewhere and hide forever. We leave our tribe to extinction. They will all die under Cyro; you know this,” Truo said.

  Sitione was quiet. Truo was quiet. I was confused and scared.

  "Then we go. We do it for the tribe,” Sitione finally said.

  "Change course," Truo said.

  Sitione moved to the front of the ship and began to change coordinates, pulling us out of hyperspeed.

  "Sit down and buckle up. It's going to be rough coming out of hyperspeed and changing course, and I don't want anything to happen to you,” Truo said as he grabbed my hand and led me to a seat.

  "Don't worry, Vera; I will protect you. Everything will be fine, I promise you. You will see,” he said as he gave me a kiss and then buckled into a seat.

  Chapter 12

  TRUO SEEDUON, SECOND COMMAND

  We approached the High Council landing port slowly. It was a very dangerous move to be going so deep into the Corillion galaxy. We didn't know what the High Council had planned for us, truthfully. It could be a big trick.

  "Land at the main port,” I told Sitione.

  "The one closest to the High Council building?” he asked.

  "Exactly. It will be less time trying to get from the port and inside the building,” I said to him as I looked over at Vera. I could see the fear in her eyes. The poor female had been through so much, and here I was putting her through more. But it was in order to make everything better for her and for our child. I only wanted the best. I only wanted the rightful leadership that was entitled for our child.

  "Landing. We’re 10 feet above the surface,” Sitione said out loud as the ship hovered just above the ground.

  BOOM!

  Suddenly the ship jolted and a part of it exploded! It was complete chaos and the ship hit the ground hard.

  "We've been hit!” I heard Sitione shout, but I could not see him through the smoke and the sirens blaring red flashing lights.

  "Fuck!” I shouted.

  "There! I can see through the shield! It is a fleet in the air firing at us!” Sitione shouted.

  Fuck, it must be a Cyro. He caught up to us. Or he was invited by the High Council to plead his case as well, but instead of coming in peace, he came in war. This would prove once and for all that he was not a leader, that he was absolutely insane.

  The ship slid across the ground and finally came to a halt. “Is everyone all right?” I shouted. “Vera!" I called out as I unbuckled my belt and went to her. There was a dangling panel of the ceiling of the ship in the way and I could not see her. I pushed it out-of-the-way and found her still buckled in her seat.

  "My leg! My leg hurts!” she shouted. I looked down at her leg, and it was caught between the seat and the crushed wall.

  "Do not worry! I will get you out!” I said as I pushed the wall in the other direction until her leg was free. I picked her up out of the seat and carried her out of the flaming ship with Sitione behind me. “Run for cover!”

  We ran to the wall of the High Council building. I could see Cyro’s ship landing near the wreckage of our ship. He was coming for us. I would not let him have her. I would not let him have Vera.

  Within seconds, warriors that were stationed at the High Council were at our side.

  "What is this!” a warrior shouted at me.

  "We come in peace! We have been invited by the High Council for a meeting, but that fleet there shot us down. It belongs to Cyro Seeduon. He has lost his mind!”

  "It is forbidden to fire on the grounds of the High Council. He is breaking the rules, and he is being hostile and will be met with hostility,” the warrior said. Then he radioed what was happening to his superiors.

  I heard his superior radio back that the fleet should be taken down and all taken prisoner. Sirens blared at the High Council as warriors ran to take cover or to fight. It was a battle.

  "Carry Vera inside!” I shouted at Sitione.

  "Yes,” he said. “I have her,” he said scooping her up into his arms.

  "No, do not leave me,” she yelled at me.

  "It is not safe here for you,”
I said as I ran up to her and placed a deep kiss on her lips. “I will come for you. I promise.”

  Then Sitione ran inside with her. I stood there waiting. Waiting for Cyro to come get me. He had injured Vera for the last time.

  The fleet of ships landed and a few warriors piled out and charged toward the warriors that were lined up with me. “Charge!” the warrior next to me shouted.

  We all ran towards the warriors that were running toward us. In seconds, we clashed together and a brawl exploded all over the place. There were blaster guns blasting. Knives swooshed the air as warriors fought. Each of us had been trained the same way, so we were all an equal match for each other. It was brutal.

  "There you are! Where is she? Return what you have stolen from me!” I heard Cyro shout at me. I turned to see him standing behind me.

  "She is not yours! She never was!” I shouted back.

  "She carries my offspring!” he shouted.

  "No! She carries mine!” I shouted back at him with a grin.

  "Aahhh!!!" He charged me.

  I charged him back. Bam! We clashed together. We fell to the ground and rolled along, wrestling, punching, and jabbing at each other. He grabbed my left arm and pushed his fingers into my stab wound. I shouted in pain.

  "You traitor! You betrayed me! You are supposed to be my support! You are not to steal my human and mate with her. You are not to try to overthrow me! This is not the Corillion way!” he shouted as he punched me in the face over and over again.

  Then he said something that ended it all. He said something that brought such a rage out of me that I did not recognize myself anymore.

  "I will kill her for this after I kill you! I will kill her and kill your offspring! No one does this to me!”

  I exploded with rage. I pushed him off of me and jumped on top of him. I punched him in the face. I punched him in the chest. I pressed my fist against his throat, choking him. He gasped for breath, but I did not let up. He squirmed underneath me. How dare he say he would kill her! No one threatens her, or my child, and lives to see it through. I pressed harder and harder until he was no longer breathing. His eyes were wide, and the cold crept over his body. He was dead. I had done it. Vera and my child were safe.

  Hours later, the battle was over. The warriors of the High Council had beaten the warriors of Cyro and had taken most of them prisoner. I went inside the High Council building to find Vera and Sitione.

  There were many wounded warriors being tended to on the floor of the High Council building. Many were still being brought in from outside.

  "Vera! Vera, where are you!” I shouted as I searched through the wounded.

  "Truo!” I heard Sitione say.

  I ran over to him. “Where is Vera?! Why did you leave her side?” I said in anger and confusion.

  "I did not. She is with the High Council getting the best care. I told them that she was with offspring. It is down the hall and to the left. You will see it. I must help the wounded here,” Sitione said. But before he could finish his sentence, I was already down the hall and following his directions.

  "Vera! Vera!” I shouted as I ran into the room on the left. She was on a table and being tended to.

  "I am here, Truo. I am fine,” she said.

  I ran to her and put my hand on her shoulder. I was so thankful to see that she was well.

  "You are hurt. You are bleeding all over,” she said to me.

  "It is nothing,” I said to her. I looked at the warrior that tended her. “The offspring? She is with offspring?”

  "Yes, she has told me. The offspring is fine. She only wounded her leg, but not very badly. It will heal quickly.”

  "I am so thankful to you,” I said to him.

  "It is what I do. Now there are many out there that need my help. But don't thank me. Thank him. He insisted that I oversee the human female that carried the offspring of Truo Seeduon,” he said as he looked behind me.

  I turned around to see Utren. Utren was the member of the High Council that had sent us the message to come.

  "Truo Seeduon!” Utren said as he came toward me.

  "High Council Utren, thank you for attending to the human female Vera,” I said to him.

  "Yes, it is of the utmost importance. She carries your offspring and the future leader of the Seeduon tribe. It is very important that she is well and that the offspring is well. As soon as I heard that she was out there wounded, I had the best we have tend to her. She is the cause of this minor revolution, after all. She must be very special indeed and deserves the special care she is getting now,” he said.

  "Thank you, Utren. But you should know she is not the reason for the revolution. This is not her fault at all. It is mine. I take all of the blame,” I said to him.

  "Is she not?” he said.

  "No, she is not. But she has become a part of it because of me. Because of my carelessness,” I said to him.

  "Well, your carelessness may have saved your tribe from extinction. Now if you will, Truo Seeduon, give us a sample so that we may know once and for all if the offspring she carries is yours,” he said as he gestured toward the back of the room. There was a warrior there waiting for me ready to collect from me.

  "Vera, I will be right back. Rest, relax; you need your strength,” I said as I gave her a kiss and walked to the back of the room. This was it. I really had no idea if the offspring was truly mine and I hoped beyond hope that Vera was not mistaken. Perhaps it was Cyro’s and it just showed up late. How would Vera know the signs and symptoms of being pregnant with an alien hybrid child? There was nothing for her to compare it too. I gave a sample of my DNA and it was put into a machine with Vera’s. I walked back to her.

  “Are you feeling all right?” I asked her again.

  “Yes. I am tired and a little scared, but I am physically okay,” she said to me.

  Utren was far from us, so I whispered to her, “Vera, what if it turns out to be Cyro’s? Perhaps the symptoms you were feeling were just late,” I said to her.

  Her eyes grew wide as she thought about this. Then I leaned in and said, “I will still care for the child as if it were mine. It does not change things for me. I love you, Vera. I love you madly.”

  “I love you too,” she said. “I don’t know how or when it happened, but as I sat here knowing that you were out there in that battle, I knew that I would be broken if I did not see you again. I was so worried every second that you would be killed out there. I could not handle losing two men that I love in a month’s time, Truo. It would break me. I don’t want to be here without you,” she said as a tear fell down her cheek. I wiped it.

  “No matter what they say, we will get through this together,” I said.

  “How accurate are those tests?” she asked.

  “Very accurate,” I said.

  “Then I know that it is yours because I was given a test every week after being with Cyro and it never showed I was pregnant. It would have, wouldn’t it, if it is that accurate?” she asked.

  I smiled and felt relief hearing this. She was right. The offspring had to be mine; now all we had to do was wait so that we could prove it to the council.

  Only a few minutes later, the verdict was in.

  "Well, Truo Seeduon, the offspring that the human female Vera carries is yours,” Utren said.

  I grinned a proud grin and looked at Vera. “I had no doubt,” she said to me with a smile.

  "Tomorrow report to the high council room where we will decide what is to happen. The chaos of today has left much for us to do. There is not time to deal with you too today," Utren said to us.

  "Yes, we will be there tomorrow,” I said to him with a bow of my head. He bowed back and then walked out.

  "Are you truly all right?" I asked her looking over her body.

  "I am truly all right. But I worry about you. Look at you. Your arm is bleeding once more,” she said to me.

  "I feel great. Cyro will never bother us again. I took care of that,” I said to her.

>   "You mean he is…” she asked.

  "Dead. He came at me. I had to finish him off. He was threatening to kill you. I could not have that,” I said to her.

  "Thank you. I feel safer knowing that he is not out there trying to get me, and trying to kill our child,” she said with tears coming down her face. I knew that it was more than this. I knew that she was glad that the warrior that had murdered her husband was now dead. She wanted vengeance, but she didn't want to say it out loud. I would let her feel happy in silence.
