Ch. 12: The Beginning of An Endless Search Part2
“Yes, very intriguing.”
“He seems to have something in his DNA…. Something very peculiar…”
Figures began to appear in Skai’s vision. Some were scurrying around like mice and others were staring up at him as they took notes on his movements. He looked around, noticing he was in a container filled with some kind of liquid. He was weary, not having the will to move. Raven’s power had taken a lot out of him but he didn’t care. All he cared for was how they would get out of there alive?
“More testing should be done immediately…”
“Agreed…”
Sk ai’s vision blurred again. Something was rising from within him and he couldn’t help but go back to sleep. His heart started to beat rapidly, his body was changing its features as electricity entered the container but its effect was slow as if time itself had stop. The seemed scientists were trying their best. “Its working! The process may be slow but in 24 hours it will take affect!” one shouted overjoyed with over-confidence. An ominous laugh entered the lab chamber, sending chills through the scientists’ backs.
“Now what did you say? How long will he awake?”
“About 24 hours m’lord…His mind is somehow resisting his tra…”
That brought an upsetting scowl upon Rakatsu’s face. Without even a reaction, the scientist had, literally, dropped dead before he had known it. “Work faster!” he shouted. The other scientists scurried around in fear, trying to speed up the process. “My, my… such a temper. You know you should calm yourself.” Slade said coming from the shadows, “Patience wins the battle, my friend.” Rakatsu smirked, “Hm. For such a man who died by the hands of a mere team of bratty delinquents… You are very wise…my…friend…”
Slade ignored his comment as he walked toward the container. “He is a unique specimen.. What is he exactly? He’s not an alien nor human… is he some kind of demon?”
“Smart and wise. No wonder I chose you out of all of these weak humans. Yes, he’s neither alien, as you recall, nor human. A space demon…of no other kind. He has no equal…”
“Tell me more…”
“Three souls occupying one body…one of the three has such power no other can produce, the demon who was born on the red moon… Red Terror …” [I know… very exaggerated but eh….]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Raven’s head throb so badly as she woke up from her unconscious state. She tried to figure out what could possibly have caused such agony but her senses didn’t stretch to memory just yet. Breathing and lying down were about all she could manage right now.
What was going on here? She was on her side with no more strength in her body than a stuffed animal. She concentrated, skirting the edge of blinding pain. She clenched her fist and felt something curl in her hand. She then realized, she was on a bed and in her hand was a blanket. Focusing all her strength at the front of her head, Raven cracked open one eye.
She was in a room. A white room with what looked like a garden. It didn’t suit her taste but who’s to say? It wasn’t her room after all. There was a large window in front of her. She tried to find some strength in her body as she stood up. She was able to but she collapsed on to the bed again only able to sit up.
She looked to the distance outside of the window and shock ran through her body. Clouds?! We’re in the sky?! She asked herself. She steadied herself as she attempted to get up again. She gripped onto the curtains for support as she scanned the sky. She was used to flying… but not in some kind of battle ship meant for water.
There was the deck at the bottom. Soldiers were guarding every inch of the place so escape was not an option.
“Do you like what you see?” asked an unfamiliar, yet heartless voice. Raven turned around to face a boy who was only about two years older than she was.
“Who-”
“Oh yes. How rude of me. I am Enrique. Please to meet you.” He bowed his head.
Ok… Raven was caught dumbfounded. So not all villains are cruel and rude…or ugly…
Enrique was remarkably handsome. He had neat flat blond like hair and alluring hazel eyes. He wore silk black robes and a silver sash around his waist where a sword could be seen. Still Raven did not trust him and she was right not to trust him. As he came closer, he lowered his head to her neck and breathed in her jasmine scent. She wasn’t able to do anything; she used up all her strength trying to get near the window. She whimpered a little bit feeling his breath on her neck.
Please tell me he’s not going to do what I think he is!
“You’re such a beauty… sadly… you’re the pawn of this game.”
“W-wha-”
A needle had been thrusted into her neck and she screamed out in pain. Her body had been paralyzed and she fell into Enrique’s arms. My body! She tried to say but nothing would come out. Enrique picked her up and left the room. Her head rested on his chest, she was only aware of her surroundings. Where are you taking me?! Let me go! She tried and tried to speak but her voice box had been closed down. Her eyes looked around frantically.
They had entered another part of the lab and Raven could see several scientists coming their way. They took her out of Enrique’s arms and manacled her to a cross-shaped stone, placed a helmet on her head. What’re they going to do to me?! Panic rose and fear was taking over. An electric surge went through her body, this time releasing all her powers. She began to cry, the pain was excruciating. “Aww! Raven don’t cry. It only hurts in the beginning.”
Jinx looked up at her with a satisfying grin on her face. “But… this is just the beginning of my fun. Though seeing your love one hurt you instead is more pleasurable for my taste. Don’t worry, your little friends will find you soon and they’ll suffer the same fate.”
Location: Aboard Han’s ship -
“Aito!”
Silence.
“Where in the 13-hells is that lazy good-for-nothin’? Aito!”
A flag of a huge tiger skull wearing a bandana with wings hung from the watchtower. There, a boy about fourteen was enjoying the view of the Earth’s blue sky. He had been seen different kinds of skies from different planets but never came across one that looked almost like the sky back home. As a matter of fact, he missed home. He missed his comfy bed; sleeping on a hammock is nice but he still preferred something flat and still, he missed homemade meals, he missed his friends and most of all he missed his mother. He loved traveling so he joined Han’s crew.
He was so deep in his daydream that he hadn’t notice the shadow that began looming over him. The shadow cracked his fingers, “Aito…” WHACK!
POV: Aito’s
“Aito! What in ten-no’s name are you doing here?!”
Hi! My name is Aito Ichihiro, Cap’in Han’s best sailor! The guy who hit me? That’s Daigo, number one helmsman on Cap’in Han’s crew. He always on my case but he’s not all bad.
I rubbed the bump on my head as I stared at Daigo with a blank expression on my face. I grinned at him, closing one eye, “I was just checking out the scenery.” Daigo pushed back his glasses to its place and whacked me in the head again, anime style. “You forgot didn’t you?” he asked me.
Forgot what? I started to ponder what he meant and it took me few seconds to realize it. How could I forget?! I looked back at Daigo and grinned again. “Oh yeah! Cap’in is coming back!” I thought I had it right but I guess I didn’t because Daigo whacked me again.
“Captain Han has been back! He wanted everyone to report to the bridge about ten minutes ago!!! I can’t believe you didn’t hear the announcement over the speaker-com!” he scolded.
He’s in a really bad mood. As we headed down to the bridge we didn’t saying anything at all. I didn’t want to say anything because when Daigo is in a really bad mood than normal, he would raise hell. One of them anyways…
Location: BridgePOV: Normal
The boy wonder waited impatiently as two of the crewmembers were late. He looked over to Han who was just smiling and humming a tune, not minding the wait at all. Finally two figures entered the room and got in line with the others. One was tall and the other was small and young with a boyish expression on his face; not to mention 3 large bumps on his head. Han cleared his throat and step in front of his crew facing the titans.
“Titans. I would like you to meet my crew! One of the best Heliopolis can offer!”
“But… they’re pirates!”
Han arched his brow a bit and frowned a bit, “Your point being? My crew is one of the best top dogs out there in the galaxy. We’re not here to steal but to deliver a message to Namuriko.” Cyborg and Beastboy snickered at Skai’s real name. Two reasons why, it sounded kind of royal and aristocratic like and that it sounded like a fluffy creature’s name. Eri sighed, “They may be pirates but they are famous for their generosity. You can say they’re the robin hood of the galaxy.” The titans calmed down a bit but didn’t let their guard just in case.
“Alright, now for the introductions.”
15 minutes later….
“And last but not least, Aito, my youngest sailor”
“Hey!”
“Well, it is true.”
(POV: Aito’s – “Ok… so I was exaggerating a little bit.” – End of POV)
Han’s crew bowed their heads and went back to their assignments; some went out of the room and others stayed going back to the controls. Robin walked over to the screen and Starfire behind him. Starfire looked out beyond the screen and looked below deck. She was amazed that a ship filled with advance technology was floating in the air but she still worried about her friends, wondering if they were ok or not. “It’s been about three days since we’ve seen our friends and we need to find them now!” Robin uttered.
“We are now.”
“What do you mean?”
“Well, you can say this endless search has ended. I was fooled by just a simple trick.”
“You still do not make any sense, Han. Please give us your true meaning.”
“Ok! Well my true meaning is that I lov-”
“Han…”
“Ahem… Sorry… When I mean I – we were fooled; they used the simplest trick that even the strongest captains would forget…”
“Dude! Just get to the point already!”
“It’s camouflage, Beastboy.”
“Wha-”
“An illusion in the sky, hidden in the clouds.”
