Ambrose was running as fast as he could out the back of the palace. Off in the distance he could hear the whimper of a craft lifting off. Roaring St. Ambrose tried to increase his upper toward the sound. Breaking into the open air Ambrose tried to bound at the lifting craft only to hang suddenly.

Close on his heels were his Knights, Paladins and Niaco. Roaring in defeat as the craft lifted skyward. Even as he watched he saw his star pleasure craft appear firing on the ascending craft. `` Skylos, '' Ambrose roared ! `` land them down Princess Adina is on gameboard ! ''

Changing manoeuvre Ambrose 's star pleasure craft started to make Thomas More pin point hits. Then suddenly the foreign slyness climbed faster evading the pleasure boat making give space. Cursing Skylos was about to give following, then landed next to St. Ambrose and the others. Leaping aboard Ambrose shouted, `` Make for distance ! bewitch them ! ''

Nodding the wire whisker clan air force officer, Skylos, quickly lifted the star cruiser giving chase. `` On it now sire. I managed to hit their engine so they wo n't be able to enshroud. We should enchant them soon ! ''

'' Good chieftain, go ! '' Ambrose roared as they felt the ship accelerate. Ambrose was pacing the deck of cards angry that he had allowed this to find. cocksucker he thought ! Her brother was going to start destroying matter if Adina got hurt. Ambrose felt a paw on his shoulder joint as he whirled roaring at Niaco almost lashing out at her.

Bowing shaking a little she stated, `` We will fight to the expiry for the family my fellow. Have no fear of that. If need be we will lay waste to the Talandian world if she is harmed ! '' Saint Ambrose's heart went large as all his Knights, fighter and Niaco bowed before him. `` We all pledge to release her fellow. ``

'' It is good to go into fight with such loyal masses ! So be it ! If the Talandian planet has to run red with blood then by the great feline it will ! This shall be the last time that the land is betrayed by them ! ''

All of his horse and Paladins raised their swords as they cheered. Philip Milton Roth leaned close rustle, `` fantastic speech father ! Your father would be extremely gallant of you ! ''

'' Thank you Roth but it was n't a words. I meant every parole of it ! We have to make sure enough this can never happen again ! '' St. Ambrose whispered back to Philip Roth.

Roth turned from Saint Ambrose walking to Skylos, after a moment he was on the radio. `` This is oecumenical Roth I want every ship, every soldier quick to go. keep up us to Talandia we will finally put this rebellion to rest ! ''

Turning the radio off Roth spoke briefly to Skylos then walked back to Saint Ambrose.

'' Are we closing the length ? '' Ambrose asked of Roth.

'' Captain Skylos said we are gaining, he is afraid that the former craftiness might land before we over consume it. He is mad that he did n't damage it more. '' Roth relayed.

Ambrose smiled he 'd wish zero better than to muck up the hell out of the early ship. Had Adina not been aboard St. Ambrose figured the other would be detritus by now.

Onboard the former ship Twitty and Glenna were bidding their time before they struck. They really had no idea how to put down the hulk of a ship.

Adina 's kidnapper cursed under his breath they were being followed ! anathemise it ! Looking over everything he again cursed. The brief scuffle he 'd had escaping had obviously damaged the ship more than he thought ! Looking again he saw that the other ship was starting to over engage him. Making several alteration the male smiled. It was of no moment his pursuer would n't get him before he landed.

Skylos cursed as he started to align his equipment as much as he could. He had to catch them it was a shame if he did n't ! Pushing the engine they crept even closer. Skylos smiled more as the engines strained good they were closing faster !

The kidnaper cursed again as he saw that his pursuer was closing faster ! curse it at this rate they 'd have him in orbit ! `` marauder to king ! I suggest you get some support up here or you're going to recede your prize ! ''

'' King to predator, we have no ... '' came Conrad 's voice.

'' Like I said get them here or this is the last you will hear from me. I will not be a prisoner of Xendra not for you nor any other ! Get them here now ! '' The male growled out at Conrad.

'' On the way ! We have a reception commission if they get yesteryear. '' Conrad said through clenched tooth. This assassin was seriously pissing him off !

'' Good ! Then prepare I should have her to you very soon, '' the male said looking over at the unconscious form of Adina. She was n't well trail though he could see that she had the basics down. It had been a foresighted clock time since a novice had surprised him.

Skylos cursed as his eyes went full seeing the ten ships that were approaching from the planet. Roaring he got off two dead reckoning that shook the other ship dropping it back into convention quad. Arming all weapons a fierce grin crossed his feature of speech.

'' I have ten foeman ships approaching ! I need some of you on the pulse cannons ! I can get some of them though not all ! '' Skylos shouted.

All four of Knights got wicked smiles as they went to the mid-ship junction. Roth went up ; Gwayne went down, Gregor left and Thomas right. A moment later they all reported in.

'' Mid-ship weapon system account ! '' Skylos shouted.

'' Port side on strain, '' Gregor reported.

'' Starboard up and running, '' came Thomas 's reply.

'' Bow top cannon activated, '' came Roth 's answer.

'' keister cannon quick ! Let 's vaunt these traitors out of the sky ! '' Came Gwayne 's shout.

Skylos smiled more then started to adjust as the ships rushed toward them. `` Here they come ! liaison one one-half specton ! ''

A moment later there were respective plosion as the ten, and then only five ships started to fire on them. `` Damn it ! '' Came Philip Milton Roth 's vocalization as he missed then Gwayne got the ship !

'' You 're getting old Roth ! '' They heard Gwayne say.

Growling Roth took out another two that crossed in battlefront of the ship. `` Shut up Gwayne ! Beat that ! '' The last two exploded suddenly on either side of the ship.

'' honorable job moving in to stop the former ship. '' Skylos said as they quickly approached the early ship. They 'd almost tail, the four knight starting to disengage from their heartbeat cannons when Skylos started shouting. `` Looks like we are n't done yet ! XX Thomas More inbound ! ''

Looking down the corridor to Gwayne 's position Philip Milton Roth smiled. `` We 'll see who is old, Gwayne ! ``

Nodding at Roth, Gwayne growled back to him, `` Yes I think we will old one ! ''

Growling Skylos shouted, `` competitiveness later ! Get back online ! Contact in a specton ! ''

Ambrose was pacing as he watched the fight, he hated being a sitting butt like this ! Going up front Skylos looked up pointing to a buttocks. Saint Ambrose smiled, sitting taking the car pulse cannon ascendency in his paw.

Joseph Conrad watched the first wave disappear within here and now. What in the hell on earth was this ship using ? Then he saw that it was that bogus nephew of his. Shaking his caput he knew the second moving ridge was n't going to be effectual either. Ordering up the gravid armored ships he sent them as fast as he could behind the second wave.

Roth cursed when Gwayne had equaled the grade of ships destroyed to his own. The indorse wave destroyed Skylos moved to bug the other ship again. Opening the airlock they started in stopping short when the Male had Adina 's unconscious torso with a tongue at her throat.

A impish grin crossed his nerve as he looked up seeing all of them. Then he growled as Norman Thomas entered the room as did Thomas.

'' So double-dealer ! You have to shroud behind the skirts of an unconscious mind female person ! Now I am extremely glad that I killed that traitorous father of yours ! Perhaps now I can finish the total traitor family ! I missed the execution of that bitch of a mother of yours ! '' St. Thomas hissed out.

The male 's rasping vocalisation filled the room, `` not nearly as gladiolus as I will be when I kill this one. To end even a by-blow off shoot of this phratry will be satisfying ! '' Smiling a wicked smile, the male started to press forward with the tongue even as Ambrose shouted no.

Suddenly everything froze as Ambrose rushed forward knocking the knife from the grip of the male. Raking his paw across the male person 's typeface St. Ambrose ripped Adina 's eubstance from him.

An utmost look of surprise and horror crossed the male 's face as everything started to move again. Reaching for his brand he suddenly stopped when he felt not one but two sword point in time against his back.

'' Though I wish to rip you apart, I leave that honor for Saint Thomas ! '' Came the growling voice of Twitty.

'' So extra federal agent Twitty I see you have passed to the next level. The other look like elite guard Glenna. '' Nodding the male person stopped when he felt the degree push forward a bit more. Lowell Jackson Thomas came forward cuffing the Male with the butt of his sword knocking him out.

'' I suggest we search him. He kept a diversity of weapon hidden, I suspect even more now. '' Thomas said removing at least XX in a quarter specton.

'' SIRE ! '' Came the mad voice of Skylos. `` All of you need to get back here ! We have another waving of ships approaching ! These are far more combat ready than the initiative two wafture ! ``

Ambrose nodded as he took a shaky measure toward the airlock. Adina 's eye suddenly opened then went widely as she saw everyone. Locking on Ambrose they went wider when she saw him momentarily shaken as he stepped forward.

[ first cousin ! You used the final power of royalty again did n't you ? ] Came Adina 's thought process.

With a sigh Ambrose looked at her then nodded. `` I did n't use the full extent of it though. Only about ten tintons as you and Typree suggested. I feel a little weak though no where as badly as end time. ''

[ commodity I am afraid I ca n't detect my voice right now. Whatever that betrayer used on me has rendered my throat numb ] Replied Adina 's thoughts. Gaining her metrical foot Adina slowly made her way onboard also.

Slamming the airlock shut Skylos ran for the ascendance way. Undocking from the foreign ship Skylos started to make his way from Talandia. His eyes astray Skylos started to curse as he saw that they were n't going to get that far as their hyper cause was offline. Running from the command deck Skylos was in the engine room adjusting and replacing all he could.

Twitty followed as she stared at several burned circuits. Grabbing a typeface she started replacing what she could beside Skylos. Looking up, then at what she was doing Skylos nodded, then made for the command deck. Adjusting again he felt the hyper driving activate though only at a quarter exponent.

'' I 'm afraid the shields are low Sire. Your Ilex paraguariensis has managed to get them back up but I do n't think it will be enough. '' A beeping drew his attention then he nodded. `` I need at least twice as much if we are to get at least half hyper parkway back online. ''

'' I 'll do what I can. A few of these are too badly burned to effect repair. '' Came Twitty 's voice.

'' I know, do what you can, at least we are making open space. '' Then turning toward Ambrose, he said, `` We need more in order of magnitude to film them. The last battle with the back wafture seriously over taxed the arrangement. '' Turning Skylos adjusted again then smiled as the hyper drive came up to half.

'' We have help coming though I 'm not certainly they will give us before we are over taken. We have to ... '' Ambrose started when the com went off.

'' cousin ? Are you alright ? '' Came the voice of Typree.

'' For the moment we are though your sis ca n't speak. '' Ambrose replied.

'' By the great feline it must be so peaceful ! '' Typree replied.

[ I heard that brother ! ] Came the loud cerebration of Adina.

[ Damn she 's pissed. ] idea Typree.

[ Wait ! ] A startled Ambrose idea. [ Where are you ? I thought you had to be close to use it ! ]

[ Coming in from ... ] Typree started.

'' father ! I have a bombastic military unit moving around the planet ! They are approaching at high speed. I 'm afraid father, we are screwed ! '' Reported Skylos.

'' That would be me and my force Captain. I congratulate you on your superb handling of the situation. Were you not the Billie Jean King 's I 'd try to steal you away to help train my fleet. '' Typree told the Captain. `` Thank you for protecting my cousin-german as well. We 'll lead it from here ! ''

Ambrose watched as the forcefulness of Talandian ships suddenly turned firing at the oncoming fleet. Though heavier armored the Talandian fleet was having a hard fourth dimension against the oncoming Mandrian fleet. midway through the battle two ships broke off heading toward St. Ambrose 's ship.

'' Two got through ! I need all of you on the carom ! Switch to high pulse charge per unit, make every shot counting ! We might only get a few shots from each ! '' All the horse scrambled to the shank as Skylos yelled. `` queen mole rat Twitty please come out ! I 'm afraid there 's no more we can do right now ! ''

'' Damn it ! What are we at ? '' Came her reply.

'' We 've got over half shields. manoeuvrability at threescore percent. Barely enough to power the high pulses on the shank I am afraid. '' Skylos replied.

'' Damn it ! I thought that last conjugation I repaired helped. '' She shouted.

'' You did activate it did n't you ? After you repaired it ? '' Skylos asked.

'' Activate ? I thought they did automatically, shit ! '' Twitty yelled as she disconnected.

A moment later Skylos watched as one then three then six junctions came back on ! Holy shit ! They had seventy five pct shields ! Plus their manoeuvrability was at eighty percentage ! Running up battlefront Twitty smiled when she looked at the Reading. `` I thought I 'd repaired more than that ! ''

Skylos stared at her with wide eyes ; she might have saved their lives !

'' Great job fagot Twitty ! It 's just the advantage we need ! '' Skylos told her.

Even as he turned back they were engaging the opposition ships. Roth and the others were trying to resist firing continuously at the two ships. Finally two spectons later one of the ships exploded. The other had just started around on another attack when respective gibe got through striking the strawman of the ship.

Even as Roth yelled taking it out also. Ambrose 's eye went widely as he heard the rupture alarm. Reaching out he felt Philip Milton Roth as he was trying to escape. Suddenly Philip Roth was flying through the quad the doors stopped as was everything. Growling Ambrose growled pulling harder feeling the final stage power of royalty stop.

Roth was on the deck at Ambrose 's paws. Ambrose was panting shaking his head he could find something building gamey and mellow within him. Damn it ! What was this strange feeling ? Why the hell could n't he stop it ? Trying to sedate only made it worse.

Adina 's eyes were wide-eyed she 'd only felt this once the time that her father had used too practically. Then he wasted away to nothing.

[ Cousin ! Push it away ! It 's the simply way to shut out it off ! I know it 's hard, you have too ! ] Came Adina 's thoughts.

[ I 've tried everything except embracing it. Nothing is helping. At least if I do I can protect all of you ! ] Saint Ambrose thought to her.

[ NO cousin ! That 's how father felt, it killed him ! I ca n't drop off you again cousin. I ca n't ! ] Adina's thoughts were yelling.

Running to Ambrose she threw her weaponry around him locking her paws as a shock started to run through her.

Saint Ambrose could only stare at his cousin-german as her body started to convulse with what was running through her. Let go he thought this could drink down you, you little motley fool !

[ NO ! I wo n't ! I refuse to lose you again ! ] Her thought process shouted though debile.

Saint Ambrose felt tears from her centre then suddenly felt the exponent within get-go to lower.

Up front Skylos could only stare as space suddenly went non-white outside the front man view screen ! What in the gens of the groovy felid was going on ? He 'd seen the transport jump to make a motion away from the battle, and then suddenly the pawn seemed to be running in reverse ?

It felt like an hour had passed when as suddenly as it started space started to re-emerge again. Looking down he saw that the blow of the equipment was slowing then it stopped slowly going forward again. Shaking his head he watched as a strange planet appeared in front on them. Why does that appear familiar he thought.

St. Ambrose finally felt the powerfulness commencement to lessen. Adina still had her arms locked around him. Finally the power was gone, then Ambrose fell to his knees, crap he felt weak !

Skylos ran from the control deck of cards, `` I 'm going to demand avail we seem to have lost power. We 're drifting toward a major planet I do n't recognize. '' Twitty nodded as did several of the knights as they all took off toward the engine elbow room.

Niaco and Glenna gently laid Adina then Ambrose on the deck. Covering them both Saint Ambrose whispered to Niaco. Her center astray she nodded to Ambrose.

Skylos was directing all of the knight and fighter as they all started to replace electrical circuit. Two spectons later he nodded as he headed back to the
command deck. Looking over everything he cursed they had hardly enough mightiness to land. That in its self was going to be a miracle. Sighing he tried to bring at least one engine online. They were starting to cast toward the planet.

'' I 've gotten two junctions back on. The eternal rest are fried it appears. Trying to hot wire two more than, sorry that 's all I can do. '' Twitty said on the radio. Skylos nodded as one locomotive came on slowing their glide path. A surprise aspect came to his eyes as he saw the carapace come up also. Not a lot but enough for them to at least terra firma !

Twitty came into command a moment later. `` I think you saved all our animation again. How is the male monarch ? '' Skylos asked.

'' He appears to be exhausted, I ... '' Twitty started.

Skylos looked over at Twitty whose centre were wide staring at the major planet in the horizon screen. `` Are you O.K. Queen Twitty ? '' A concerned Skylos asked.

'' That planet ! '' Twitty whispered. `` That 's dry land ! ''
