Chapter Five: "Uncommon Meetings" (Part Two)

Zigeris runs to the side panels to secure the location of where Kimi was presently located, thankfully for him she wasn't too far, just a floor below. He grabs two pilot suits and darts off. Tammy sits and watches him leave and she ponders in her mind, "Nothing is more true than love, he moves and it's the truth. He's not going to get money he's going to get his lover. He could die, or we all could, and he's willing to risk my life for hers. Quinn would do that, and this is why I have to risk my life, and theirs, to find him! Because what I do is true, I love and it is true, what I do is more important than anything!" She looks around at the cockpit of the Alpha she feels a strong drawing sensation from her chest. She speaks out loud, "Alpha you're a lot like him, Ziggy, you want to live. The only difference between you and him is that you have no one to live for, he has everyone... only one to live for and that's enough. Would you, Alpha, fight as hard has he would? If you had someone to love I bet you would. For now all you have is ME! I'm not much to fight for if you can't love me. So don't try, if you don't feel like doing anything just tell me. I won't make you die for me. Quinn though, he'd have to do whatever the cost to keep me alive. Alpha will you help me find Quinn? All these stars, all of them, so many, I need Quinn and the world can have the stars. I am broken, Quinn is too, which is why we must be together! He was robbed from me, he didn't leave, my heart felt something. Where is Quinn, Alpha? WHERE IS HE YOU STUPID PIECE OF JUNK? I'll kill you, when the time is right, because of you Quinn is missing, and I will kill you, but for now I am going to use you. Or maybe I can find something you can love, so that you'd kill me. It's the only way anyone could ever defeat me, that is to love someone. You can't kill me Alpha no matter how hard you try. You're a machine and I am a human. I can love, you can't. But I will try to find someone for you to love. Because if I am going to kill you, I don't want you to give up and let me. I don't know if I have to kill Ziggy and his girlfriend, I don't want to, but if I try he'll kill me. He's too strong. I'm afraid, Alpha will you protect me from him? Kimi is weak, I can feel it already. But she loves, can she kill me too? I suppose anyone is undefeatable when they love. Weak or strong. Alpha they're taking too long, we have to find Quinn, how much time till the bombs go off?" *******Alpha-rBrain******** 2 hours till detonation********

"AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh oops, oh well! C'mon Zigggy!" Tammy pushes some buttons on the information screen and a picture of the hall cams appear tracking Zigeris. "Oh she's pretty! No wonder he loves her!"

Zigeris and Kimi reach the hanger doors and slide their things towards the Alpha, Kimi cannot see who's in the cockpit and asks, "Zig who's in the ship?" Zigeris picks up another bag and motions her to come, "It's some girl, let's go." They throw what they could into the back watch, behind the cockpit which had house two people.

"Hi! I'm TAMMY!"
"You're a little girl!? ZIGERIS!? SHE'S GOING TO FLY!?"

Zigeris secures the hatch and settles the bags and such down. "Yeah, nothing worse can happen anyway." Zigeris mutters.

"OK SIT DOWN AND BUCKLET UP!"

Zigeris looks to see that the exterior doors are not open. "Don't we need to open them first... can we do that from here?"

"Yes it's called plasma!"

"What?"

Suddenly a wall of force presses against Kimi and Zigeris' body and tosses them back into each other as the entire cockpit flashes a brilliant blue light that eventually erodes away to reveal the entire side of the hanger is now gone!

"Ooops wrong button!" Kimi looks over at Zigeris with the notion of concern and disbelief that he'd allow such a thing to happen.

"Tammy, this is Kimi, where are we going now?"

"Oh well, we can't fly this ship in the open, nope, we have to disguise it! So I am going to pick up a transport."

"I have no money the LSF....er Liberty Government took all my things."

"Oh I hate LSF, you LSF? UGH LSF! Such snobs thinking they can rule everything with codes and secrets. Well, if you're LSF turn a blind eye I am going to steal one."

"Ah, yeah no. No stealing anything."

"Don't be such a baby! I've done it BEFORE!"

"That doesn't...comfort me at all..." Zigeris sits down by Kimi. Kimi looks at him with confused eyes. "Where's your brother?" Zigeris clenches up and looks away.

"I killed him." Tammy says softly, but abruptly. Zigeris refuses to let his eyes connect with Kimi, knowing full well this isn't a time to be emotional, or let up on trying to figure out what's going on, and who this girl is.

"You assassinated him, is what you're telling me? You killed my brother I am owed the reason as to why and who wanted him gone." Zigeris says with a flat tone to his voice, Kimi never experienced this tone before and it frighten her.

"He was going to kill you anyway, what was the issue? Usually people point guns at someone doesn't have much more to say to them or love them. But I guess that doesn't matter to you, not that it doesn't, but you don't see it from my view of things. Well I am Tammy. You already know that. Quinn is my boyfriend. Him and I are from the same place. We're not siblings that's gross. No, but we grew up in the same house. I had other's like him, brother types that weren't actually my brothers. We didn't have a family or anything it wasn't a family we were stolen. But your brother had nothing to do with that. He just made a bad deal with even worse people than him. These people wanted him dead because of the Alpha. They want the Alpha. They sent me to get it and destroy the control thingy. Your brother was going to die anyway, I just made his death the best option he had. Better than those Foun...." Tammy pauses as she sets the auto controls. Zigeris adjusts his eyes to meet hers has she looks back at him. "I'm sorry I had to kill him. I listened to what he was saying to you, and I think he is wrong you can't change blood of family. DNA and crap, but not family blood. He wasn't your brother anymore and I am sorry I had to kill his body. But his soul was gone before you got there." Tammy now turns around and gazes out into the Tau's debris fields. "You see your LSF has begun this entire thing, whatever is going on, I am apart of it, and you are too, I know because you were at that base. There is no reason for anyone not involved with this war to be there. Anyway there are people, bad people, who are going to cause millions and millions worth of genocides. They want everyone to suffer. I am an instrument of that genocide. I was created for it. I am designed to kill. They tried to, but failed. They failed with Quinn too. They tried to make use love nothing. I and Quinn love, therefor we cannot be used. I don't let them know that, because I've used them back. I've done bad things, but to bad people. Now Quinn is gone, somewhere, and I have to find him. I am being hunted by many people. You're too, I guess. Because if they know your brother they also know you. They know everything! They see everything! They have for a few hundred years. These people...are pure evil. I can't take them on my own. And I don't want to. I just wanna find Quinn. Because without him I will become a tool of genocide and I will kill millions." She hangs her head down and sways back and forth. "I don't wanna kill anymore people. I just wanna die loved."
