Chapter VI: Deception and Realization

“Location confirmed: Omega 11.” - The NAV computer beeped upon the ship's course being plotted

The last hour and a half of blockade running had exhausted Reuter to near death. His Wraith has also suffered significant damage from the combined Police and Military task force that tried to keep him from escaping Rheinland space, but they were no match for the Wilde's knowledge of the secret passageways through Rheinland's systems.

**We are *tranquil*. Our -Community- is no longer *terminate*.**
“That's great, but we still need to get to Omega 41!”

Without warning Reuter's arms went numb again. Reuter struggled to move them but he could not even feel them.

“The hell are you do-” - Reuter was cut off from finishing his sentence when a blinding pain went through his body.
** -Humans-, *blackness* that *path* (follow) the *great* *deceit*. We are One.**

Reuter could notice the Wilde's voice was much stronger than before, maybe even more commanding. The pain going through his body was made worse by Omega 11's sun, which the Wilde had set a suicidal course towards.

“Are crazy!? If you wanted to fly straight into a sun you could of just done it yourself!”

Reuter was answered by a disembodied laugh as the Wilde put the ship into a hard turn towards the edge of the system.

**The Community *strength*. We are *to *Rockhome* **
“Huh? Rock?! What are you up to!?”

Reuter had absolutely no control over his body now. All he could do was watch as the Wilde brought him to whatever hell-hole they were bound for. Reuter began to notice the sounds of other voices. At first he thought he was hallucinating, but there were other voices in his head.

The voices were beginning to fill his head. They became so loud that Reuter could not hear himself think. It was like the other time on the train, but this time the voices sounded deeper, darker, and more insidious.

**You are Ours now.**

Reuter wanted to respond but the voices were suppressing him. His vision was becoming darker and darker. He was passing out.

Reuter could see something in the distance. As they approached it he could make it out to be the same orange, fluctuating jumphole from his dream. That was when he realized what was going on. Reuter mustered the last of his strength and muttered:

“You... Basterdsss...”

With those final words, Reuter's vision went black along with his consciousness. His journey was over. However, their journey was no where near the end.

The Wraith entered the jumphole and disappeared along other some-what expensive military hardware and one Major Gerrit Reuter. What the official military report failed to mention was the loss of multiple classified military documents containing information on previous and yet to be conducted military operations, something that would soon cause the upheaval of Rheinland's military.
