The pansy of the Vorlons, shuddered as the shoemaker's last of her first fellow 's relatives were butchered. Ah, She thought, the sound of death was so pleasant-tasting to her.

A slightly worried looked came to her features, she hoped it would be adequate to carry the homo. It had been far too long since, they had been in space. place, where her opinion slipstream deserved to be.

The Queen knew from their retiring dealings of Risen 's lineage, she would induce to await. The only affair she was worried about was the fact that like his sires, he could react counter productively. sufficiency she feared, to actually annihilate the satellite of all sprightliness. She knew the human being had the fire power.

It was only a few hours later that her com. went off. `` All that you wished has been accomplished. I had all the proceedings recorded for your enjoyment. ``

The face of Risen appeared, an almost wicked, wickedness smiling dominating his features.

The Ex-Duke nodded slightly before he spoke. `` I will review it before I make a decision on, just what I will discharge to you and your mass. ``

'' I feel that you think, all my citizenry are like that poor excuse for a Vorlon warrior. '' The world-beater spoke keeping the Hope and almost desperation out of her voice.

Risen smiled, she 'd tried to veil it, he 'd been well trained in the ways of misrepresentation. `` I will review the punishment, then and only then will I let you know. '' With that Risen clicked off smirking at the fag. Ah, he thought finally things were starting to go his way.

A truelove beeping from his console table immediately drew his attention. Risen 's mouth dropped unresolved as he recognized the scoring on the ship that was passing the iniquity planet. What in the the pits was an imperial trader doing this far out ?

The Ex-Duke hit several switches then gasp as he saw that the majestic network had been extended this way almost a whole system. Shit he thought, he was going to have to speed his plans. If the imperium was starting to fringe expand, the many dependency that were hidden, were in a hell of a lot of danger.

A look of the dampening landing field on the satellite, showed that the expiration freighter had n't the force to pierce it. Shaking his head, he knew that the larger ships that the asshole imposter to the throne had, would n't be fooled.

Risen started to type out respective dictation, still watching the freighter it grew diminished as it moved away. Finally satisfied, he typed in another dictation then there was a holloa. He smiled as the slender landing ; probe ship that had been on the Cregon colony landed next to him.

'' All plans that have been requested, are being replicated. All should be gear up within the time of day. '' Probe X-51 reported to him.

commodity the Ex-Duke thought, now how to tell the fairy and leave before they showed up to get everything. Risen thought a few moments then a truly immorality, twisted smile came to him.



Kimison and Rayburn both cursed as the small, slender, sentinel on the table started to tremble, then a thick layer of smoke came from it. They both looked at each other then turned back to the design on the design mesa behind them.

'' Damnit ! '' Kimison shouted. `` I corrected everything that was faulty finally metre. Why the snake pit did it fail now ? ``

'' It lasted far longer this clock time, almost a full minute before failure in all systems. Tempro ? Can you bring up where the failures started then we can go from there. '' Rayburn said as he was also feeling the pressure to get this project finished.

'' Sirs, '' Tempro said as a shimmering revealed the older looking holo-gram. `` Almost all problems from before have been eliminated. The servo motors were operating with no trouble. It appears that something between the positronic brain, the artificial spooky system and the rest of the organic structure failed. Attempting to isolate the number 1 of the job now. ``

Kimison sighed as he sagged into the seat behind him. They had a working theoretical account, though when the Einstein section was activated, everything started to deteriorate. Kimison shook his principal it was almost as if the nervous pathways were ...

Kimison jumped to his foot as he started to type at a frightening speed on the comp.

Rayburn was at the comp next to Kimison watching what the man was inputting. For a few second Rayburn could only find out then his middle opened wide as he started to nod. `` I had n't thought of that, '' Rayburn said when Kimison stopped a moment. Rayburn then started to type with Kimison watching and nodding.

Tempro was also watching the proceeding, nodding his read/write head as the two men started to go in information faster and faster. `` I concur on many of the facet that the both of you are correcting. I am predicting a greater amount of success with the direction you are going. ``

Both men stopped to gaze at Tempro, `` that is all well and good. We still have to dismantle and rebuild the stallion aflutter arrangement. This is going to set us back quite a bit of time, time we ca n't afford to lose. With anyone former than the air force officer we would be good, with him I feel we are doomed. ``

'' Hmmm, '' Tempro said as he looked at the sentinel from almost every angle. `` It might be possible. ``

Kimison and Rayburn turned toward Tempro their oculus narrowing. `` What are you on about ? What might be possible ? '' Rayburn asked.

'' You both realize that the IMT can carry out what you both are wanting to do ? '' A slightly smirking Tempro said.

'' SHIT ! '' Kimison said as he slapped his brow. `` With a bit of exquisitely tuning it could be useful in living operating room ! ``

Rayburn was shaking his head word, `` let 's just workplace on the current trouble, before we extend out that far. ``

Kimison looked at Rayburn with an almost hurt look. A moment later his saying changed as he smiled then nodded.

'' I have to agree especially after the IMT fortuity. '' Kimison said, which had the both of them blushing.



Jimison was pacing his way, he had talked to his master finding that, the man would be delayed. Finally calling Difina he suggested that they train as it had been two days of residual. Jimison found that he and Difina were starting to grow antsy with the inactivity.

They both made their way to the training elbow room together. Neither had noticed anyone in the corridors though, that changed when they moved into the room.

Stretching they both started to loosen up. The whole clock time Jimison thought of the last words their master had spoken to them. [ It has been almost two workweek now, neither of you are even near to where you need to be. There is no hope, of learning the more advanced motility, if you can not move past where you are. ]

Jimison, almost faltered in his stretching as the rest of what his master had said, [ the both of you have to think, then forget what your eyes see. palpate what is there, then and only then can you go forward. Go, rest, call back what I have said, reach out feel, discover. ]

Again, Jimison almost faltered in his stretching, there was no way it could be that easy, could it ? As soon as they were finished, Jimison closed his oculus reaching out with his touch sensation. Startled a consequence he could almost see and feel Difina in straw man of him.

Opening his middle, he kept his impression stretched out. He motioned to Difina as she started to attack. Jimison was amazed when she could n't get to him, he also blocked everything she threw at him.

Difina stopped suddenly staring at Jimison. `` My partner ? Is all well ? This is the first time I have not been able to touch you. ``

'' I believe that, I finally understand what master was talking about. He said to feel what is there, not see. When I used the feel, not what I saw, I was able to avert all your hits. '' Jimison explained to her.

Difina 's middle went wide as she nodded then closed her eyes. While her middle were closed her grimace suddenly registered shock. `` My mate ? Is it really that easy ? ``

'' Let 's incur out, '' Jimison said as he assumed a defensive stance. Difina nodded as they started to impress faster, all that were outside the room were wide eyed as the two seemed to vanish. The thing was though, they could still find them, plus the baron they were exuding.

More than a few smiled, ah, when they beat her 'supposed'mate, then her, they would be the new hero of the Empire. Quite a few though, moved away as the tycoon both were showing was increasing steadily.



Hartwell was still studying all the readings that Johnathon was getting from Bee and her blood line. There was a shimmering next to him as Johnathon appeared. `` heyday ? ``

Hartwell looked up seeing the slightly strained look on the holo-grams grimace. `` I take it my Sister is asking for me ? '' Johnathon opened his mouth to speak then didder his principal no. `` What 's going on ? '' Hartwell asked slightly worried.

'' Prime, you remember the finally time she blanked out ? '' Johnathon started.

'' damn ! '' Hartwell said, `` IMT me there immediately. '' Johnathon nodded then Hartwell was beside the bio-bed Lucie was in.

Lucie was sitting up ; her eyes were slightly glazed over as she stared straight ahead. Even now, with her sidekick there, she was somewhat mumbling to herself. `` Yes, I hear all of you, we are attempting to total for you. Yes, at the import all of your whole brothers and sisters are engaged in an cognitive process. Well, most of them. ``

Hartwell, could only stare at his sister helplessly. He knew that almost nothing, could nor would break her concentration. Drawing a deep breath, he sat to await her finishing her conversations.

It was not long after that, Lucie, started to get rather agitated. Hartwell jumped to his understructure calling Johnathon.

'' I am afraid that there is n't very much that I can do. While I can babble to her on the wavelength, I can not, to the other ships. '' A small pneumatic syringe appeared, injecting briefly, `` this I hope will help her to keep up her forcible and genial storey. ``

Hartwell nodded looking only at his sister, `` damnit Lucie, I thought I had lost you once. That had damn near killed all that was me. If I lose you again I might never find, I love you Luce, we 've just found each former again. I ca n't drop off you again. ``

There was a low groan from the bio-bed, then Lucie 's eyes slowly opened. In a low almost gravelly voice she said, `` really ? Here I thought you were happy that I was n't a incessant pain in your ass. ``

'' Lucie ! '' Hartwell shouted in joy, a outcry that had Lucie cringing a bit,

'' Damnit little Johnnie, hold it down some ok ? Feel as if, I have been run over by several toilsome vehicles, more than once. '' Lucie groaned out.

Hartwell winced a bit, then smiled at Lucie. `` Well, you might have been a pain in the ass, you were MY nuisance in the ass. I am so sorry Lucie, all of this was my fault, I just hope that one day you can forgive me. ``

Lucie tried to open up her eyes wider then found the exercise far too eat. `` I think that we should talk after this. I mean really talk alone with Uncle River Trent and our brother William. Then, they and I, can decide what if anything you need to be forgiven for. ``

Hartwell could only stare at his babe a moment, what she had said gave him more Bob Hope for the hereafter than she realized.

Lucie was trying to see her comrade clearly. The harder she tried to focus, the harder it became to see clear.

'' Any chance of getting out of here ? '' Lucie asked.

Hartwell turned to the holo-gram, `` It all depends on what Johnathon says. ``

Lucie tried to turn her head, finding that it made the throb far worse.

The holo-gram Johnathon turned toward Lucie. `` I am afraid that until such meter as your brainpower wafture stabilize, I can not release you. ``

'' Just how foresightful is that ? '' A slightly aggravated Lucie said.

Johnathon slightly frowned, `` I can not accurately determine that right now. As the human mastermind and its waves are so unpredictable. I have no set of parameters with which to settle the amount of time. ``

Lucie issued a frustrated sigh, `` you are as frustrating as the others. ``

A slight smile came to the sassing of the Johnathon Holo-gram, `` I do consider that was a compliment. '' Here Johnathon slightly bowed, `` I thank you heyday. ``

Lucie shook her chief slightly doing her best eye pealing. Turning to her pal, `` they seem to be More human sounding with each departure day. ``

Hartwell's read/write head snapped up to stare at his sister harder, damn if he had n't thought that himself. Thinking a moment, had n't the Commander said something like that not long ago ?

'' smell Lucie, I, as well as anyone, know how just unmoving the A.I.s can be with regards to the bio-beds. '' The sight grimace on his face had Lucie giggling low, this had a grinning coming to Bee 's cheek. It was good to see the lord sir and his baby not arguing.

Bee quickly lowered her center as a ten thousand of thought came to mind. Perhaps she thought, she had been going about this the faulty way. Perhaps, she should go about this a lot slower and soft. Another grinning came to her mouth, yes, the nobleman sir seemed more receptive to military action like that.

Hartwell caught the lowest of the smile that had graced Bee 's lips. Oh motherfucker, what was going through that devious female person 's mind now ?

Even as Hartwell was wondering what she was up to, Bee was busy making plans. architectural plan that she hoped would bring her and the Jehovah sir far closer than they were at the moment.



Kimon stood at the threshold watching Jimison and Difina as they went through their usage. His eyebrows were slightly raised at the pep pill they were moving. So he thought, they had listened after all.

Kimon took a dance step then he also seemed to vanish. Less than thirty seconds later there were the auditory sensation of two clunk, then Jimison and Difina were flying backwards.

'' So, '' Kimon said to the both of them after they bounced off the walls. `` It appears that the two of you are not as unintelligent as I first thought. You can hear and watch this is good, for as of now the actual training begins. ``

They both looked at each other then Kimon, both bowing they smiled. `` Finally, maybe they will get wind now. '' Jimison said nodding toward the gang of males that were at the doorway.

Kimon barely glanced toward the crowd outside the doorway. With a fragile grunt he raised his part, `` ha ! It is hard to teach those that not only do n't take heed. '' Here Kimon showed a toothy smile. `` They also do not appear to have got a content to learn. At least enough to remain uninjured. ``

There was a slight din at the door, followed by Thomas More than a few growl. All three turned toward the doorway, surprised when there were no one there.

Difina showed her own toothy smiling, `` perhaps there is hope for my backwash after all. It also might be good to practice without an hearing. ``

Kimon looked at the two of them as he thought. `` From all that I have seen from your slipstream so far ? I am not as positive about them as you are. We injured nearly a century when we were leaving. ``

Difina felt angriness for a second, then started to nod her foreland. `` After all this time I had hoped that, that was n't dependable. Then again, '' Difina said an almost vicious feeling on her face. `` well-nigh of them were male person, as I have seen ? They can be More thicker headed than they intend to be. '' She turned to count at Jimison, a flavor of honey and appreciation on her face. `` Though, I have seen that there are exceptions to that rule. ``

Jimison 's brain snapped around to stare into Difina 's center, then his own grew wide. Damn if, that looking she had mirrored closely to what he was feeling. He hated to intromit it but she was most definitely starting to produce on him.

Kimon could only agitate his head, not this again. He swore that everyone was starting to mislay their minds. Then he thought about, who was he to complain ? Damn if he was n't starting to feel somewhat like that also.

As daze ran through his consistence he wondered, when in the hell had that happened to him ?



It was various hours later when Derrick nodded to Mary. Moments later there were several play across the room.

Emperor Kandra along with his top commanders appeared. A few bit later, more shimmers as a well 20 of Kandra 's elite guard duty appeared.

It was taking all that Derrick had not to laugh softly at the feeling of astonishment on the Delcrons faces.

Derrick swallowed his amusement quickly, `` welcome look on guests. I hope that the meal that has been prepared meet your approval. ``

An aide of Kandra 's moved forward to sample as many of the ravisher as he could. When the Aides eyes went wide as he almost moaned out in delight at the taste.

Kandra smiled a huge toothy smiling as he gestured to all of the Delcron company as they took their rear end. He then took a finisher spirit at he food that was before him, his own eyebrows raised in surprise.

'' I have to say, this is far More than we expected, truly you do bid us as allies. None of us, hold had anything as plentiful as that you have presented before us. '' A slightly shocked Kandra said.

'' As I told you, with the same enemies in your galaxy trying to end both our empires, a unite front end is essential. '' Derrick said, hoping that telling the truth in this instance, truly united them.

Kandra thought a second then nodded his principal in accord. `` We have noticed that they have become far more aggressive of late. I concur with your architectural plan, lock them on their planet if, we do n't completely annihilate them. ``

Derrick looked at Kandra uneasily, `` emperor moth Kandra, I 'd like to consider that our empire are beyond that. Totally annihilating another race just because we can. ``

Kandra 's face showed surprise a instant then he nodded, `` my friend, I meant that if we have no option we could. Not hesitating, allowing them to strike back, inflicting damage that could bear been avoided. ``

Derrick 's eyes opened wide then he also nodded. `` I believe after what they have done, the lives they have taken, that their destruction would n't type me nor any of my men pause. ``

Again Kandra 's grimace held a wide toothy smiling, `` it is good to have an ally, a friend that we can reckon on. The Delcron empire has not had such an friend for a very recollective time. Our last was destroyed defending the Empire and their home world. Then again they had neither the tech nor the strategy, that you do. ``

Derrick nodded, `` I am hoping that we can immobilize them on their world. Completely destroying an intact race leaves me with a bad penchant in my mouth. ``

A now grievous looking Kandra was about to speak when, his aid ran up to him, whispering. They were at it for a few minutes, Kandra nodding his head a look of anger growing on his face.

A deep sigh came from Kandra, `` It appears that we are going to have to end this far sooner than I thought. ``

'' Problems ? '' Derrick asked the concern in his voice.

'' It appears that we have to devolve home as soon as possible, I fear that the empire will have fallen by the time we arrive. It appears that certain factions on Kandra, think they can take the potty, as well as the world. I think that it is prison term that we put down their delusions. '' An angry Kandra said.

'' How many ships do you wish to take back ? '' Derrick said surprising Kandra. `` As our ally we will help in almost any way that we can. ``

Kandra looked at Derrick in surprise, `` is it true that you could bear us back within an hour of your sentence ? As I said before we have heard that your ships posses incredible speed. ``

'' Mary ? '' Derrick said, causing the slightly older looking distaff holo-gram to appear.

'' Sire, '' she said as she bowed. `` I have done the reckoning sire. Where the Delcron empire is I believe that two ships could, behave half their fleet. I am afraid it would take ten minutes to attain the edge of their coltsfoot. Perhaps another time of day to progress to their dwelling house humankind. It would also take almost two hours to recharge the trans-warp. ``

Derrick, was taking all this in doing a few calculations of his own in his question. `` Alright, have all Captains run tab on their ships, I want them to be able to return safely. No more incidents like when all this started. I want a report within the hour. '' A mo later the holo-grams of Thomas, Zimmel and Mara appeared.

'' Reporting as ordered, '' all three said as they saluted.

'' I am sorry Mara ; at the mo you are needed here. At least 'til you and you intended have this settled. '' Derrick told Mara.

'' Yes sire, '' she said as her holo-gram faded.

Derrick turned back to Kandra, `` so you think that half your pass plus, two of mine would be enough to patch up this ? ``

Again, a large toothy grin appeared on Kandra 's font, `` I do believe that it will. As I have said before, two of your ships, should suffer more than than a few losing control of their somatic mathematical function. ``

Derrick smiled then turned toward Thomas, `` I want the both of you to fill half of them back to their satellite. As soon as emperor moth Kandra is aboard his ship, I want you to go. Mary has uploaded the coordinate to you ships. ``

'' Yes sir ! '' Both men said as Derrick nodded to Kandra. A few moments later the way was vacant of the Delcrons.

'' gear up to move out father. '' Thomas said.

'' Remember Thomas, you are keep going not a main participant in this. I hear different ? You 'll think Hartwell 's punishment tame to what I 'll do to you, got it ? '' Derrick said sternly

'' Yes sir I got it. '' A rather redden Norman Thomas said. Then Derrick clicked off. `` emperor Kandra ? I have all the ships that are going, when you are set up sir. ``

'' Now is as good a time as any. '' Kandra said.

A bit later, a mental disorder appeared in front of Conner and Ace. A beam came from both ships, half Kandra 's fleet were bathed in it. A moment later the two ships, followed by the half of the fleet, accelerated then vanished.

Ten transactions later they all exited a swirl tunnel at the boundary of the Delcron Galaxy. Both ships immediately went to hyper-space carrying the others. Less than an hour the halted in orbital cavity of a blue gray world.

The only matter wrong was there were capital amounts of put down ships in orbit. Kandra growled when he saw this. `` Can you bring mass to me when I contact them ? '' Kandra asked.

'' Should n't be a problem, '' Thomas said.

A channel was opened as Kandra nodded to Dylan Thomas, `` what is the significance of this ? '' Kandra said.

'' So, the, '' the voice started then the being appeared in front of Kandra. `` What is this ? ``

'' It is over, buddy. '' Kandra said as several precaution placed the Delcron in control. The Delcron struggled then saw that it was useless. `` We again have Allies, as you can see, '' Kandra pointed to the two huge ships. `` They are far more powerful than we are. ''
