Lost Empire 19 ( 0 )


Derrick kept watch over Kimison as Blessed Virgin started his treatment. Derrick knew all too well what was needed to break the detainment that all the fright and pain held on him. She was barely into the starting time of the procedure when Derrick felt him tense up ; looking up a here and now later she motioned me close.

'' I am afraid that I have need of your help sire his creative thinker is as firm as yours it will involve two push to break the hold of the paranoia that has a detention on him. '' I nodded as I moved closer,"Lie down over there Sire, remember while you are inside that nothing is tangible and can smart you. The epitome you see are just that and only the retention of his mind."

'' I will do my topper Mary, '' lying down Derrick closed his optic and was suddenly standing above the abyss that was Kimison 's mind.

'' Alright we are starting down, '' Mary told him as they started to derive. All around there was nothing but bedlam Derrick had a look that his judgement had been almost as bad, but somehow he 'd kept a better grip on it. Mary touched his arm and pointed to a spot where the Chaos was nonexistent. landing place, Derrick looked around recognizing where they were, it had been one of the worst foreign mission that they had been on.

Suddenly there was a shout and Derrick and Virgin Mary turned to see a wild looking, red eyed glowing 8 foot tall something that Derrick could only account it as a wolf. `` So you 've come back you son of a kick, '' the trench interpreter of it snarled. `` well I need something to cut up the hell up, seeing as you 're the one that put us in this pit ! '' With that the soma lunged at Derrick with what looked to be a 4 human foot bayonet. Slashing at Derrick the fauna that was sounding Thomas More and more like Kimison started to wail in wrath when the weapon only went through him.

Calmly Derrick just smiled at him, `` What in the netherworld are you smiling at, you ass wipe ! After I kill you all this will be safe then you ca n't take away the only dependable station he has ! Die ! You have to die ! ''

Mary could only stare at Derrick by doing nothing he was in fact helping to a greater extent than she thought he could sustain. Nodding to Derrick, he grabbed Kimison 's sleeve as Blessed Virgin began to slow the topsy-turvyness. `` NO ! NO ! period ! He 'll have nowhere to obscure when those motherfucker at the warhorse 's sum start to offend him again ! Stop it now ! I 'll obliterate you, I 'll stamp out you all ! NOOOOOOOOOO ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! '' With that almost all the Chaos was close to stopping and reassembling into more ordered thoughts. Virgin Mary nodded to Derrick who let the creature loose now that now looked more like Kimison. Falling to the surface area beneath their ft Kimison looked up at Derrick. `` commander ? Are you really here or is this another nightmare ? '' Reaching out Kimison touched Derrick 's arm then grabbed him. `` By god you really are here ! I do n't know what you and she have done, but I feel almost normal. ''

'' I told you we had a way to help you, I have been through it also, so I know. '' Derrick said tears in his eyes Kimison was starting to seem to a greater extent and more like Derrick thought he should. `` We 'll see you out there, '' Derrick said a present moment later when Mary had motioned for them to go up.

'' Alright commanding officer. '' Kimison said as all three of them started to heighten to the aerofoil.

Derrick opened his eyes, Blessed Virgin was standing over him, `` I am glad that the decision to occupy you was the correct one, '' she stated.

'' I am also glad that you did ; I owe that man far too a lot to let him stick out another day. Thank you Blessed Virgin, will you require me for the second function ? '' Derrick asked her.

'' I am not sure Sire but I will let you jazz before I go back in so that you are able-bodied to assist, '' Mary replied.

Kimison opened his eyes shaking his straits, and then a startled feeling came across his human face. `` You both were really in there ! My god almost all the horrible dreams and visions are gone ! '' Getting up he came to Derrick and grasped his hand shaking it vigorously, `` You need me commander I 'm yours ! '' Derrick smiled, well that was three of the five he just had to get the other two to complete this division of the plan.

Mary was soon showing Kimison to his way, Virgin Mary was smiling hugely finally there was factual liveliness back in the palace though if the Emperor did n't unfold the demurrer grid they might be the merely life here. Appearing in front of Derrick she bowed low preparing to ask him again about his investiture, `` forefather we still need to discuss about your being crowned. I feel that it truly would solidify your spot with not only the mass but with the nobles. '' Mary let out a picayune sigh when it appeared that Derrick was flagrantly ignoring her. `` Sire I know you wish to put it off but as I said it is the only way that you can let down the defence reaction power system. ''

'' I know, '' Derrick said he 'd been going through all the selective information in his head. Everything has a loop hole, he just had to incur it, even if he had to try and download the entire imperial library. He felt he 'd lucked out with the override code, hell he 'd been afraid that it would n't forge. Withdrawing deeper into his thoughts there had to be something.

Mary sighed this family was going to be the peachy Imperial family ever and here she smirked they were also going to be the most dynamic and hardest to guard. Sending a signal she again started the sentry making output railway line. She was going to definitely going to experience her hands total with all of them. Derrick sat at the foot of the potty sighing he could n't chance a solution to the trouble.

'' Virgin Mary I need you to call Hartwell I need to babble to him before we go any further. '' Derrick told her finally breaking out of his musing. Nodding she called him.

The bulwark in battlefront of Derrick lit up as the survey of the bridge of Hartwell 's ship was revealed.

'' arse admiral, I have business organization ; is it possible for you to consult with me for a short clock time ? '' Derrick asked him.

A wide grinning crossed his look then was quickly gone, `` Yes your lordship I always have time for you. ''

'' trade good, Mary, ecstasy. '' Derrick told her.

'' What you ... '' Hartwell started, `` right now ? '' He finished a second later, standing in front of Derrick.

They both could hear the many gasps of his bridge circuit crowd they still were n't used to it yet. `` Captain Multry, avoid any incidents I will be back on circuit board soon. '' Hartwell told him.

'' Yes sir, '' a moment later the Saame man held up a communiqué. `` Sir we have just received this from command you are advised to supply any and all aid to the Saturnia pavonia that you can. ''

'' Thank you, send a confirmation of response of the message, I 'll keep you informed of what we will be doing in a few hours. '' Hartwell ordered the man.

'' Yes sir, '' the man said snapping off a salute.

Hartwell 's rima oris was hanging open as he took in the potty room he 'd dreamed of being here all his lifetime but never as the Friend of the Emperor. Moving around Hartwell reached out to touch everything he could as if he was scared that it would go away at any import. Derrick could only simper he 'd remembered piffling Joey telling him long time ago that he wished that some day he could actually see the imperial beard palace. Walking back to Derrick he hesitated a moment then asked, `` You mean to tell me that all of this belongs to you ? ''

Derrick thought a moment then replied, `` No actually it belongs to the people they are allowing me to use it while I am rule. '' Derrick told a ball over then immense smiling Hartwell.

'' Now you really are starting to fathom like a dependable ruler of the people. If I have a chance I will let all do it what was said here, '' bowing low Hartwell stood with a proud flavour on his face. `` I am proud to suffer been your friend all these days Sire, very proud. ''

Rolling his eyes Derrick thought I might as well get used to this ; they all are going to be doing it before too long. `` The ground I asked you here is that I am going to need a detail for later. '' Sighing exasperatingly he looked at an even happier Hartwell, `` it appears that I have to be crowned, though I do not need to, it seems I have to. ''

Starting to laugh Hartwell was hardly able-bodied to hold in himself. Derrick looked at him like he was crazy, `` I fail to see what in the hell is so damn funny Joey ! '' Derrick growled at the man.

suction in a huge lungful of air Hartwell looked at his admirer, `` wellspring Sire if that is the most difficult affair you have going right now, I 'd say you're tinker's damn lucky ! '' Again Hartwell started to laugh.

As Derrick continued to stare at the man he realized that the man was correct and started to chuckle with him. `` Damn but you are n't always right little Joey, but unfortunately I am still going to let to go through with it. ''

Suddenly sobering up and getting quiet Hartwell told him, `` Sire I am at your disposal as are any of my men. ''

'' That 's good to know but I think you should lie with exactly what you are up against, '' Derrick told him holding up copy of his don 's file cabinet that he 'd only just discovered a day or so ago.

Hartwell 's heart got big as he started to interpret, then he started to nod, `` Yes we 've known of these cults for a while but have never had anything solid on them to eliminate them. I think that this data could go very far towards that end. ''

'' I believe that this is what got him down and not some fortuity that just randomly happened. I also believe that it was almost the Saame for my gramps though sire was a bit sneakier with his probing. '' Derrick informed his Quaker.

'' As I said this info will go far to start the end of their craze, many of the trial impression here will indeed import the end for several of the furor leader. Besides I do n't think they really want to go to war with the Rangers, advanced tech or not. '' Hartwell advised Derrick after a few minutes. `` Though I am afraid if they really do have spies as indicated here it may try out difficult. ''

'' I need to get Seth Thomas and Rayburn onboard with us, at show I found Rayburn, but as you indicated he is as isolated as you said. As for Thomas he has effectively disappeared, '' here Derrick smirked, `` though Blessed Virgin has become quite adept at finding people and things. ''

Hartwell had been nodding when he looked up, `` Rayburn would be a just asset, but I am afraid that he truly wants to be isolated. I remember the last time I talked to him ; he 'd distinguish me that he had become disillusioned with order and nigh people. When he heard that no one was able to find you having literally disappeared, he removed himself to the outer rim. ''

'' Well getting there wo n't be that bad of a problem, though I am afraid that he might not conceive that it is me. Was n't he also suffering from extreme PTSD ? '' Derrick asked Hartwell a concerned expression in his eyes.

'' As I said the last-place metre I saw him a few months ago he was doing well apparently the isolation is extremely calming to him. I do remember though that when we were on glide path to his planet he was issuing several warnings. His tech is n't as advanced as yours but he has succeeded in advancing what he has to a eminent level. ''

Derrick nodded taking this all in Rayburn had been their tech advisor and a very right one at that. Derrick knew that even with the contribute intelligence he had it was possible to miss something ; Rayburn had been the undecomposed at finding problems before they developed.

'' I need you to add Mary with all the figure of the men you can attribute to us while I am crowned. The Virgin I want as quick a check on them as possible, override any system that does not wish to comply. '' Derrick ordered her.

With a huge smiling Mary replied, `` It will be as you command Sire, '' turning to Hartwell. `` I await the epithet of all those you indicate Rear full admiral. ''




In orbit, The Lysium was finally under her own power, the Duke had finally emerged from his bedroom after hours of plotting. Yes he thought this would be a most pleasant-tasting game of cat and shiner, with the duke taking the prize at the end. His crew stayed as far away from him as they could, they 'd seen him in as glad a mood as he was in before. It bore no goodwill toward anyone to get stopping point and upset that mood. The Cook had the man 's nutrient ready as fast as he could ; good thing the man almost always wanted the same affair. Already the Duke thought everything was in motion he 'd already contacted the two mathematical group that had in high spirits end tech. Smiling evilly he knew they 'd get the job done after all, they had n't failed before, he saw no reason why they should now.

Several systems further out closer to the Galactic rim, a morose shadowy man smiled at the communiqué. So they had a new emperor moth, this Duke Risen was bequeath to pay their Mary Leontyne Price to remove the man. Smiling he saw that there was almost no entropy on the man, no matter he liked mysteries more than almost anything. A Caranx crysos was standing by to deal all that the man had to the leader ; he would be the one to put an assassin to rid the extragalactic nebula of the man. More frantic than he 'd been in quite a long sentence, the shadowy man hoped that it was him. A job this big would bring ultimate expiation to him and make him feel like his spirit was make out.

Derrick and Hartwell had been pouring over the list of men and cleaning woman that were aboard his ship ( it seemed another would n't arrive for another day ). Hartwell had smiled at this, good, he thought no one else to tusk in on any of this. `` I believe that is all that we can spare after your coronation, '' Hartwell told Derrick. `` Anymore might render the ship useless though you do stimulate 90 % of the crew. ''

'' Mary run all desktop, if there is the fragile furrow I want to know about it no issue how small. '' Derrick ordered her after they were finished with their discourse.

'' Yes sire, running all now. '' Blessed Virgin replied as she reached out to multiple computer arrangement to sustain or abnegate information that were soon pouring in.

Within second she had cleared half the crew as she thought she might, and then she ran across one that she was not sure of at all. Still she kept at it soon finding another five that were more than refutable. `` Sire I have completed the listing of ALL crew fellow member, '' she stated a mere ten minutes later. `` I have six members that are in head ; one I believe is a spy for one of the anti-throne religious sect. ''

Derrick and Hartwell 's fountainhead snapped up at this word, `` Display please, '' Derrick told her. Derrick and Hartwell went over the information for all six quickly dismissing four of the former five, and then they were reviewing the 6th. `` Madonna is there a test to learn whether or not this one is in fact a spy ? ''

Virgin Mary was muted a few moments, as she searched her data cornerstone, `` Yes sire there is, but I am afraid that it can be black. If the soul is indeed a conditioned spy the test could bring on a riffle effect that would fan out 'til almost all memory is erased. In the past any of the two sects that were questioned died within minutes of their mind cuticle being broken. I have refined it in the endure 500 year but the results still are n't that friendly for survival. I am sorry sire but given the few times I have performed the operation I still have insufficient data point to correlate an good intervention. ''

'' Let me see your result and reading during your questioning sessions Madonna, I might bear a few improvements that you could incorporate. '' As Derrick started to go through the datum, he started seeing parts of the older programing viruses that Mary had been infected with to destroy all her living electric circuit. Derrick worked the keyboard with almost inhuman speed typing at a blinding pace. Finally an hr later he was looking over all the work he 'd just terminate, Hartwell had backed away not wishing to interfere and the simple fact that he 'd never seen anyone eccentric that fast.

'' I think I have it patched enough for you to proficient workplace it, '' Derrick told Mary who had been following Derrick 's work as he had progressed. From what she was seeing the virus she had were designed for her to actually belt down the undercover agent rather than interrogative sentence then. Now though as she smiled her probing would do zero but yield flounder results that should testify more than than utilitarian. `` I believe we are more than than make if and when they try again ; I think they are in for a very natural awakening. '' Derrick laughed as he started to flip several switching.

'' How would you like to proceed with this one ? '' Mary asked Derrick a few minutes later.

'' I 'll decide after I am crowned. Two things that unfortunately have to go on today, one we ARE executing that mongrel Maury ; that is happening no matter what, and as publically as potential. Two, I will be crowned afterward not as a celebration of that slime ball's Death but a promise of spirit, it will be at that time I will reveal who I am and not before, is that clear The Virgin ? '' Derrick asked.

'' Yes your lordship, as you know you will then be capable to glower and raise the palace defense power grid as you want afterward. Unless it is an emergency then I can instantly raise them, as stated before, your sprightliness takes precedence over everything, '' almost in a whisper Madonna added, `` This includes the life story of this social unit. ''

Derrick whipped around to stare at Mary after she 'd uttered these give-and-take, `` I do not take account your levity in this matter Mary ! '' Derrick quickly told her.

'' I am only speaking the accuracy your Lordship, it is all that I can do, as that the way that I was made, '' Virgin Mary said, her head bowed tears slowly beginning to return from her eye.

'' I, '' Derrick started, `` do not stand for for you to be put into a position like that, you do interpret that without you and the others I would never bear accepted this office. '' When Mary only nodded her centre wide at what Derrick had said, Derrick continued, `` I intend for you to last long after I am gone. '' The tears were falling harder now no one, no Saturnia pavonia had ever given her, her tike or their children the consideration that this man did.

'' Mary, how close are we to being set for all of this ? '' Derrick said though he really did n't like to kill, this was the one time he really had no qualms about it.

'' I estimate that we have at least three hours before the execution, then depending how soon
afterward we can stimulate the enthronization within minutes. Do you feel we need to make an declaration about everything Sire ? '' Mary asked him, she could see the emperor butterfly was still somewhat upset about everything she just wished there was More she could do.

'' I think a admonition ... I mean an announcement would be prudent in this caseful. I want you to get hold of all that you can, let all hump that as of today the empire begins again. If they wish to conjoin then they will need to depone commitment to the imperium and all the other kingdom within it. If they desire to stand against us then, '' here Derrick paused, then a grim looking at shadowed his face, `` then that also will be dealt with swiftly and fairly. ''

Mary nodded then vanished to begin the preparations for the execution and the eventual crowning of the new emperor. Derrick was sitting at the metrical unit of the throne again when the nexus on his carpus chimed. `` Yes Shelby, do we have a problem ? ''

'' No Derrick I thought you 'd desire to love that 1000 is fix for distance with only three days to go before her re-gen reaches completion. '' Shelby advised Derrick.

'' trade good, I need to speak to her as soon as she has full intellectual bodily function, how is 0798 's progress ? '' Derrick inquired.

'' I just started her re-gen a few arcminute ago ; she should be prepare in at least a week. '' Shelby told Derrick a wide grinning on her face. `` Derrick I know you still charge yourself for Lucy but we will recover her and she will be given a hero status among us all. She has struggled for age to finger she was a true EIG, what she did, '' here Shelby lowered her fount and voice, `` will not be forgotten by any of us, especially me. She overcame so a great deal to reach the point she did, she did it all for you Derrick and only you. ''

'' Yes I know Shelby, I WO N'T let anyone forget what she did and we will get her. '' Derrick replied trying to keep the weeping from his articulation.

Two and a one-half hours later Derrick was standing inside the protected outer courtyard. XX minor containers were arranged in a semi-circle around a Wiley Post that had been driven into the ground in the shopping centre. Derrick had several of the ranger bringing the man to the post after securing the snarling, spitting, and cursing man they beat a precipitant retreat. Derrick, who had been there the unharmed time wearing a mask, was awaiting the time for this to start. rightfulness before Mary was to go world Derrick walked to the edge of the courtyard.

'' You have been a bastard chairperson for this supposed democracy far too long. '' Removing his masquerade the ex-President 's mouth dropped assailable in shock as he stared at Derrick, a man he 'd been told was dead many class ago.

'' No you son of a bitch ! You 're idle ; I was told they beat you to death ! NO you 're a ghost ! Get away from me ! '' Smiling Derrick reattached the masque and activated the security system around the Wiley Post. Moving to a window Derrick nodded to Madonna who started the broadcast.

'' Citizens of the now defunct democracy we are here to see the execution of instrument of the condemnable known as President Maury. His list of crimes is indeed prospicient, but in a shortened kind there is evidence of genocide, starving whole major planet, untold war offence but the tough is the attempted murder of the emperor, the attempted demolition of the imperial satellite, the last is the near end of over half of the galax. This finale was more than enough to decree his death. The imperial time ? dying by the Imperial grit bore worms. slaying to set out immediately ! '' Derrick moved back as all the containers next to Maury opened. Six ft long, and an inch around, the furry looking red worms slowly crept from their containers.

Maury started to express mirth at the fuzzy worms 'til all 20 turned and quickly advanced boring into his arms, legs, cervix, and back. Though he was grimacing, once Maury started to shout and beg, Derrick stood stead fast. Derrick knew that number one the insect would lop the man 's spinal anaesthesia corduroy rendering him ineffective to take the air or grovel away. Then they would call for their time consuming each organ of the body saving the affection, lungs, and head for endure.

As he watched Derrick could see the dirt ball starting to gestate toward the organ that they wanted to start feasting on world-class. Though the man had passed out a few times he always seemed to pop back up a few proceedings later as the boring increased the pain in the neck in a new expanse.

If he remembered right the brain would literally irrupt from the force per unit area the worms caused in the man 's brainpan. Though not that humane of a death it was quite good, as the saying went about the worm, once they're in it 's the end. It took another hour before the man began to scream even louder, and then his whole head exploded.

'' I apologize to those citizens that found this to be vile but it was necessary to throw some justice to all the menage of the jillion that this ... thing has caused such nifty botheration. '' Derrick told everyone still watching. `` I did not need to be crowned after such a horrific execution but I find
that I must in order of magnitude to start bringing order and convention back to the Galaxy. Please know that as emperor I was not glad doing this. ''

walk back to the can room Derrick sighed this was the last moment he would let as plain stitch Derrick O'Toma. Advancing upon the crapper he stood beside it waiting for Mary to appear.

'' To the citizens of the old commonwealth, I am Mary the law holder and palace security AI. I was empowered by the very first emperor Angelius with the power to crown he who bears all the genetic markers, who has the code and commands the purple fleet such as it is at the mo. The man before me is a man of the people an emperor not that far removed from the number one emperor moth. He is the first in over 200 years to display all the qualities. Sire ? Are you ready to assume the duties as swayer and defender of conglomerate, and do you at this sentence reveal who the emperor is with full knowledge that you rule for the masses ? '' Mary stated in an functionary part.

'' I do Virgin Mary, '' a very nervous Derrick replied.

'' Please father remove the mask and show the Empire the brass of its new ruler. '' Virgin Mary said as she had to suppress a smile.

Almost all of the fire warden present gasped when Derrick removed his masquerade revealing his identity. Derrick smirked as he could find out several of them whisper that they knew him or knew of him.

Virgin Mary waved her hand as a steel and a jacket crown appeared, `` By the power invested in me by the mandates written by the first emperor, '' here she touched each shoulder with the blade. `` I dub you Saturnia pavonia O'Toma the first, ruler of the astronomical Empire. Please arise Emperor O'Toma and have the crown of the empire. '' With a slight smile Madonna lowered the crown via mechanical blazonry upon Derrick 's school principal. `` Please be seated Sire, '' Mary advised him as she turned toward the all that were watching. `` It is done ! Long live the emperor butterfly, long live the empire ! ''

All the Rangers in the way, Hartwell included, bowed, and repeated what The Virgin had just said. Hartwell advanced and bowed to a now sighing Derrick, `` Sire Ranger command has advised me to avow loyalty to you as do I and my men, also to tell you that all of the Ranger personnel is now at your garbage disposal. ''

'' Thank you Rear full admiral Hartwell, I accept yours and your instruction 's gracious whirl of allegiance. I will do all in my top executive to see to it that the imperium will be a smooth beacon of freedom from such beasts as the one we executed today. '' Derrick told Hartwell, a little smirk on Derrick 's back talk .
