Ray was dumb they were both in there ? They could n't be ! What they were describing would mean the death of one of them ! Ray turned to say so when she spoke, `` No Ray, neither of us will die. You might say we are one being now, I, Nali, used almost all my life forcefulness to protect you the last clip we were back on home plane. I, Elizabeth, have had a love of you for many class, though you always seemed too busy to remark me. I did n't have the courage to approach you, that first gear time, I almost died when you asked me to, '' Leaning close she kissed him and whispered, `` thank you Ray, though it was almost pure lust, I enjoyed that more than all of the times with others put together. ''

Ray oculus stroke open and a stupid grinning lit up his font, and then just as suddenly it was gone.

Ray held Elizabeth finish, messiah he thought he was n't trusted just how he felt about either one of them. Yes, it was rightful he was starting to develop feelings for both, though he was n't sure you could actually address those feelings love. `` Both of you, '' Ray started, `` I ca n't tell you how I feel at this present moment I am so timid I do feel more than friendship for both of you, but love ? I do n't know yet, I have to mean about this before I can do I do n't want to lose either of you but I an so diffident. ''

`` Ray, '' Elizabeth started, `` both I and Nali are now hooked upon each other, though we can survive if you ca n't add up to love us, '' here Elizabeth sighed, `` it would be hundred of multiplication better if you did. hump that we can never split up again, our spirit military unit are sustaining each other, you see we were both about to die, '' here Elizabeth lowered her psyche and her voice. `` I was so glad you finally wanted me Ray, I have for a while now, I just found out last week that I WAS dying but not any longer. ''

Ray was astounded, he thought he knew everything about all the people that worked at the billet, well shoot that theory all to hell ! `` Have you told work ? '' Ray asked.

'' No, I was going to inform them succeeding calendar week, then Nali came to me, she offered me a chance to live. It seemed we had a common bail bond, you. I jumped at it, anything I can do to be with you longer is worth what ever hell or task I would have to under take. '' Elizabeth explained.

Suddenly the voice changed, `` It was n't hard to save her or myself the combining of both our life energies were more than strong enough to sustain the both of us. ''

'' I understand pretty much the how and the why. The solely thing I am not understanding is why me ? I am nobody really, I ... '' Ray started. Here Elizabeth put a finger's breadth to his mouth.

'' Oh Ray, you are a lot Sir Thomas More than you say, I know who you are, I have for a long clock time, John is just a anatomy nous you are the true endowment behind the company. '' The dismayed looking on his human face being a telling sign. `` I thought so, plus you are a grinder to the BLEMS as you call them, you have obtained a mountain range of energy far higher than any other man. ''

'' Still you 2, I do n't feel special nor any unlike than anyone else, '' Ray confessed.

`` Yes we know, as I have come to understand this is usually the stigma of a reliable hero, one who feels that they are just doing what they are supposed to. In a lot of cases, they even feel it is what they think anyone else would stimulate done but they are usually so far from the truth it is pitiful. You are more than special Ray, you have not only given animation back to a all human race but saved innumerous living. You have also stopped for quite a few years the advance of the Chortons this in good turn has allowed a few of the their side by side object to advance further than the Chortons could possibly take and might even be defeated. job is they adjust faster then any but you can, you are the first EVER they have gone against that can align riotous than they can. It is also why the fairy wants you to breed. '' Elizabeth said.

Sighing Ray knew he had to do something to stop them but what ? He only had his ego though he was learning a few trick now that did seem to be working.

Thinking a moment Ray realized just what Elizabeth II had just said, the fact that he adjusted faster than they did. The problem was that the last prison term he had barely been able-bodied to drive the magnate relative frequency that high, heavy he thought just what I needed to flush it, when I 've come this far. Finally after an hour Ray 's question started to hurt, it was n't the fact that he had adjusted as fast as he had it was HOW he had adjusted. The more he thought about it the more confused he seemed to get, great here I have a way to outwit them and I have n't a hint to just how I did it. Lying down Elizabeth was at his side in a here and now, `` Ray ? '' She asked, `` are you feeling alright ? ''

'' I 'm not sure Elizabeth, I 've just gotten a jolt finding out not one but two people of life material body or whatever are in love with me. I ca n't even come up with an answer for that, I 'm just so run down. '' Closing his eyes he was immediately at rest, then he was traveling again to the BLEMS planet.

Looking around Ray saw that something was indeed wrong, he 'd just checked with them a very forgetful time ago. It was at that moment he felt the presence of an almost toothsome evil, reaching out Ray tried to find where it was only to almost hit a wall. Reaching down further Ray drove the relative frequency up gamy, ah ! There, he had it now, at that here and now he felt the almost slimy branch of something clutch at his mind. Shaking his head he was quickly free, then he felt several more entities attempt to enter and hi-jack his judgment. Now he was pissed off ! Lashing out he felt each of the creature scream as it 's psyche was destroyed, behind it all he still felt the toothsome evil he had before.

< Ah ! Treg Trag ! Your judgement has become stronger indeed ! I shall enjoy breeding with you even more. I will cause you sate me with your seed till I am close to exploding ! We will ask to enlarge your seminal fluid injector so that the teeth of my seed receiver can properly have you and pull you to breed me ! > Came a articulation from the evil mien.

Startled only a moment Ray reached out and tried to shred everything he felt from it. Caught by surprisal the Queen was injured before throwing up her defenses.

< You vile Treg Trag ! No one harms me ! I shall deliver you soon ! I have sent half a trueton of ships to fetch you to me, soon Treg Trag soon. > Then the voice was gone Ray started to shake just the mere persuasion of sex with anything that resembled those spider affair creeped him out. Ray knew that they ere on the way he had to train more defenses before then. Starting with the boxes, he began to make 9 to a greater extent this metre though, he tried to incorporate a little something that might deter the spider from that little inside his cuticle, warp magic they had used endure time.

Thinking a moment he began to feel the vigour of the BLEMS, hmmm if when the spider creatures attacked he could change their energy signature, then they might have a chance. This though Ray thought was going to rent a lot of planning. Calling the BLEMS, he began to question them about a majuscule many thing, he could feel the position of the BLEMS starting to change about him. Finally hours ( it seemed to Ray ) later Ray thought he might just have a plan to possibly stop the invaders dead in their tracks, damn he hoped so.

Everything ready Ray set up a engineer tie-in to the leader, matter is it was extremely grueling to do. Almost as if he was strong but no where near inviolable enough to do everything he needed to. The programme set, Ray knew that only an time of day or 2 off the planet would be day or calendar week to them, thank god it was the calendar week end. Feeling the pull then something else Ray bid the BLEMS fare well then was snapped back at an unbelievable speed. Opening his eyes he saw that Elizabeth was bending over him a aspect of extreme trouble etched on her face.

'' Ray you were gone for a few hours, is everything all right ? '' she asked.

After Ray explained all that had went on and the precautions he 'd made Nali spoke up, `` Yes Ray, I feel you have dealt with the coming attack far advantageously than I think they will ask. Ray, they will try to snare you again, you must be heedful. If we were to lose you, it would mean the end of both of us.

Elizabeth II and I are not yet able to travel to my home world. Please be very careful, trust nothing. ''

Ray looked at her as if she were crazy a moment, then realized that everything that she 'd said was true up. He did n't watch out close enough and always seemed to think that he was strong than his attacker were. Ray was about to thank her when he felt a sharp cry from the leader, telling Nali he had to go, was back on the satellite in no time. As he had expected they were once again trying to open portal vein inside his shields. He could see thousands of the invading spiders walking out of the vena portae into open space, then the vacuum over took the vena portae and several hundred ships imploded, taking even more nearby ships with them. The only problem was this was like a drop of water in a replete bucket. Then the bombardment started, though this time with 18 of his devices there was hardly any strain at all. Ray was a trivial concern though, considering the sheer number of ships they could easily over power the shields in a subject of hours.

Ray sat on the ground Ray tried to cerebrate of something that could help, sure he could think and the ships would explode. Problem with that was he did n't cerebrate he had the Energy Department to do that, especially with the tabby out there somewhere plus the fact that he, had obviously pissed her off when he tried to destroy her. guess she did n't like getting a discernment of her own medicament, feeling helpless for once on the receiving end of an attack. I need to destroy her Ray sentiment, I hurt her so I 'm afraid she 'll never give up, if only I could ... that was it ! It all depended if he could displume it off with more than one at a sentence. Concentrating Ray found the 4 weakest brain controlling the weapons of 4 ships at the front of the ships. Taking control was fairly well-fixed and took no energy at all. With this control he had all 4 start dismissal at the ships behind them in speedy succession, smiling Ray watched as hundreds of ships were destroyed before the 4 were fired upon. Ray reached out and could 'hear'the wanderer screaming that the Treg Trag was using a tactic he 'd used before and to see for him on the ships.

Ray withdrew laughing that this new tactic was working honorable than he thought it would. Reaching out he tried to see more weak minded arm hustler, the first 20 he touched were all weak, what the hell on earth ? What, was it a prerequisite that in order of magnitude to can the weapons you had to be an almost slush mental capacity ? Ray was n't surely he could hold all 20, taking 6, he once again started to dismiss this fourth dimension getting a few hundred More ships than before, this fourth dimension he actually heard the Queen screaming at her soldiers to find him before nigh of the fleet was debris. Hmm thought Ray the female monarch could n't actually feel him then ... wait ! That had to be it she was sensitive yes but only when he had his power on a relative frequency that she was used to or was below where she was at the here and now. Interesting Ray thought I can find where she is but she nor any of her U. S. Army could sense him not while he was shifting his free energy higher. Ray quickly released the first 6 and took the next even as the fleet opened up on them Ray had the operators destroying hundred more.

That ought to go on them occupy a patch trying to find me, ease up the shield a chance to rest. Ray knew that soon they would catch on so fourth dimension to change tactics. Reaching out Ray had to go hundreds of miles to find the queen regnant not only NOT with the fleet but quite a distance away. Reaching in he saw that the fairy was still trying to recover from the last attack. Christ Ray thought what an ugly, disgusting, obscene puppet she was. Several fauna almost a mirror of her were crawling around her tending to her, feeding her, taking her permissive waste away, stimulating her, Ray could only guess it was he sex entrance. Shuddering he saw several melody of teeth lining the inside of the chess opening, nookie this he thought I have got to kill this matter. He saw that she had some case of helmet on it was obviously what he had felt clamp down on her psyche when he attacked her earlier. Counting again Ray had at least 10 attendants plus the Queen, cracking never can make it gentle. Reaching over Ray grasp the helmet, he 'd give birth to do this quickly he did n't do it just what the attendants would do.

Quickly ripping all the lines idle Ray reached in the Queens mind ripping at everything he could as the pansy began to holler. Watching he saw the accompaniment reach for weapons, still pulling at the Queen Ray killed the first 2 that approached him ( he 'd found their lively brain function center earlier ). The Queen still screaming in pain was trying to reach Ray, that is 'til she saw the 2 suddenly attendants, the others started to fire at Ray as he killed another 2. Finally safeguard were starting to get pulling as much more as he could Ray disappear, ventilation hard Ray found that he was now exhausted, the tugging back to earth was increasing every instant. The loss leader floated to him as a downcast energy wave shot out of it into Ray, ah ! Damn that felt commodity !

Suddenly the visage of the hulking Queen appeared of the planet in front of Ray, `` You ! '' She screamed, `` you dare to injure me ! You dare to descend aboard my ship ! No thirster will I try to mate with you, I will send off every ship, every agentive role, every assassin to destroy you, no one in my empire will roost 'til you lay at my metrical unit. You killed 4 of my daughters, making you the foremost enemy of the empire I will .... '' suddenly she was screaming, Ray had reached out again this fourth dimension he had 4 of her 8 ramification and was bending them at angles they were never meant to go in.

Ray could only smile when she started to scream even louder then there was the sickening elasticity as each leg was not only broken but also snapped off.

For several minutes the queer screamed then Ray finally spoke, `` I have some advice for you, leave behind and will these existence alone. You have already lost Thomas More than twice what you ever have, in ships and soldiers. I have many, many musical theme I have n't even begun on yet, the shell and portal vein conductor was only one mind I had. Oh, you can come back but I swear that it will set the end of your race, look at yourself you 're already one-half drained, but come if you wish, I 'll finish the job ! '' With that another of the Queen 's daughters grabbed her forefront then collapsed, dead at the queen mole rat chela.

'' We will never rest Treg Trag, NEVER ! '' the fagot screamed.

Sighing Ray took hold of a 6th girl snapping the mastermind center loose, `` I suggest you leave now before I kill all of you ! '' Ray growled. This time the queen mole rat did n't hold back screaming in fact it was getting so loud that Ray was starting to get a straits ache. Pulling back Ray waited for them to bequeath, he almost wished they did n't, though killing all of them now would work a lot of problem. Ray was about to reach out to start the ships firing on each early when almost as one they all turned to depart.

`` Know this Treg Trag, we will pass, I will take every trueton of my ships to destroy you, this planet will be a dust Ball when we finish I promise you, no one kills any of the royal family and life-time, NO ONE ! '' Came the shriek of the queen mole rat then it was silent. Ray watched as the fleet started to speed up then were gone. Ray almost fell when he could n't feel them any more, imprecate it ! He 'd fight his self past the point of exhaustion, he 'd lucked out the Queen could let easily destroyed him, with a final look around Ray was snapped back to solid ground. Looking at Elizabeth I he smiled weakly then passed out he swore he could hear Elizabeth I and then Nali screaming as he started to accrue. Damn no movie on this flight ?
