Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness

Chapter 37: The Current Crisis of Dora and James

Dora's scream was sudden as it nearly freaked James out and made him turn around with the intention of entering a fight, but all what he found was one of his drones was just passing by.

He looked towards the stupefied Dora and realised what the problem was, the appearance of the long lost drones here was a surprise for her. James knew that would be the normal reaction of anyone living in the current era if he or she laid eyes on his drones.

That made him think of an idea, an idea of how to disguise them to look completely normal and not attract any undesired attention.

"Don't worry, they are working for me," he tried to soothe the awkward situation for her.

"Working for you? Are these drones? They have long disappeared from the universe after their purge and rebellion," She said after getting hold of her emotions and shock.

She was looking strangely towards the one who was trying to fix an error regarding one of the cannons, as some of the cannons got damaged either from the pressure of using them without any supporting systems, or those who weren't fixed properly and got dislocated after James' crazy maneuvers.

"You know, you are quite interesting, you used the descent maneuver back there, right?" she pointed to him with her index as she said in a praise.

"well, it's called the dancing descent maneuver, and thanks for your words, shall we go to the commanding deck now to show you what you came here for?"

James then led the way, but Dora didn't let the topic down as she continued:

"You use an old forsaked nearly impossible to achieve battle skill, and you are armed with drones, those fascinating deadly tools that have long been lost from our universe. Tell me, are you a time traveler? Someone who came from the past to change the future?" Dora's tone was full of interest and amusement, which made James look sharply to her as he said with denial:

"No, of course not, I'm today's era boy."

'An interesting boy,' Dora muttered to herself while she followed him towards the commanding deck. The cruiser was like any small cruiser she had seen, so she wasn't feeling any strange being in the commanding deck, but she felt strange from what she found there.

"You didn't lie when you said your ship has become a hospital, oh boy, isn't she one of those light seekers?"

Dora was observing the three sleeping like babies who were positioned next to each other on the floor of the commanding deck. The deck was wide enough to contain them, but there was no place suitable to put them there, or anywhere else.

"Yes, I hope they just wake up someday," James said while he went towards Rigo as he said:

"Rigo, prepare the recording and play it."

Dora just glanced at that droid who was sitting over the front seat, then she looked away towards the three in front of her as she was much interested in them.

"Do you know what happened to them?" she asked.

"I know what happened to one of them, the other two just pumped into me, but I guess they are the same," James replied as he walked to stand beside Dora watching Eli, Alex, and Islinda.

"What happened to them then?" she asked with curiosity.

"You will know soon, but long story short, your beloved friend the Immortal is the one behind all of this," James replied as he turned to point towards the center of the deck, "The recording will be played now, and you will understand everything from it."

Dora'a attention moved towards the hologram which began to take shape rapidly revealing a screen, and her picture was there on it.

"It's just a few minutes Edwardo, why do you seem this nervous?

Even if this silly kid found it, she will destroy it. Stupid foolish ignorant guardian, destroying this creation of mine won't stop the process, instead it will fasten it. The only possible way to cure anyone infected by this device is to make the device work in the healing mode.

Anything other than this is futile, even if some of these filthy seeds escaped, they will die eventually, gagagagaga."

Once the recording finished playing, James noticed how palor Dora became after watching it. He understood how gravity the shock she felt right now, but he also knew how tight their time was, so he slowly said:

"I know it's surprising, but consider it from the bright side, his plans got revealed in front of you now, so you can try and best him to turn the table over this man. The most important thing now is to warn your allies, and find that device in your ship, we need to eliminate this device threat."

Dora looked at me with lost eyes and ashen white face before her voice came hoarse as she said:

"There is nothing we can do now, it's all gone, everything is gone."

"What do you mean?"

"The ship that the distasteful Immortal mentioned isn't my ship here, it's my main battleship in the rebel fleet, and now that fleet is already here.

The imminent battle between the rebels and the Rontag imperial fleet must have occurred by now, or about to happen. the distance from here to there will take at least half an hour, we can't reach them in time," She said.

James understood what she meant, as if the war started, there was no guarantee that her ship would stay intact, and if so they would have to wait until the war ended then they could be able to reach her ship and find that device.

If they did so, they would risk losing everyone affected by this device, which was something unacceptable by James.

"Isn't there a way to send a message to your space ship and make it move to here away from battle?" he asked.

"No, this zone is special, as that external layer prevents any signal from coming in or going out. There is no way to send a signal to my ship from here," She replied dejectedly.

"What if I can send it outside? Will it work?" James asked as he got an idea in his mind.

Dora just looked at him for a second before saying:

"I thought I figured out everything about you, but each time you prove me wrong. Tell me, genius, what back hand did you prepare for this?"

She guessed vaguely what James had in his mind, as for James he felt strange about her ability to discover, or guess his secret plan. He sighed as he said:

"The bloody princess of the rebels can't be underestimated, yes I have a back hand left in the foggy zone, so I can transmit messages from here to them, and they can transmit it from there to your ship. The issue is, will your crew listen to your commands or the rebels orders?"

"Don't worry, we aren't that regular army with strict rules, my crew is only loyal to me alone. When can you transmit this message?" She asked.

James pointed towards Rigo as he replied:

"He will answer your question, not me, as he will be the one who will send the message out."
