Love & Duty
However, if I had been given a different trade to finish, I would have chosen engineering. I had a knack for circuitry and fixing or setting electrical lines or systems that I was able to build my own ship after all. Skull ship is the proof of my excellence in ship building. Maybe I can build ships and all if I am not a pirate….haha..in my dreams!, Red thought.
Hayley, can I speak with you for bit?, Ren said and walked passed the girl who ws currently eating at the resto lounge with Miles, Akhmed, Yogi, and Cecilia. It's nice to see you are doing well. So what is it about?, Hayley excited to see Ren and maybe thinking that the girl will be asking her out or something since they made out that night.
Don't think that I care about what happened to us that night, last week. I am in love…., Ren cried but Hayley interrupted her.
I know and I don't intend to be your woman. It's just an accident alright and I should be the one to blame for the misconception about us. You're helpless and lost that time, I shouldn't have insisted, sorry Ren!, Hayley said and placed her hand to shake Ren's.
Well….I didn't say I felt bad about it or didn't like it, but I hope we can get to know each other better and let's start from that!, Ren replied now feeling shy. She is the type of girl who is strong and won't bow down to anyone but this time, she felt different and Hayley is someone she can be honest and open with who she really is inside. And that feels great that she doesn't need to act tough every time and be just who she really is in front of her. Okay, ma'am then let's date and see, hihi!, Hayley said and gave Ren a thumbs up. Hayley's face gave it all away when it turned red and Ren blushed when she made a funny gesture. Their eyes locked and smiled. Ren extended her hand and shook Hayley's hand who in turn held it tight and caressed it.
Knock it off, okay, lovebirds, where is Dunea and Ericka? Slash said and looked around to check on the two and when they are nowhere to be found he breathed and went to talk with the flighters team. Anyway, we'ge got some good news and some bad news, we need to head off and check on some planet, are you ready?…! Give me some enthusiasm and feeling of excitement ladies and gents…yaaaah...
Ahh… yeah, maybe!!!, the team answered unsure and this made the teens giggle.
Eherm…Right, okay, you seem to be all fired up and excited (which is the opposite), the flighters are looking at each other not really understanding what the captain is saying. Eherm!, Slash said and followed it up with his hand pointing to the conference room. Just follow the hand…Let's go, hurry, hurry….
The team ran to the room. Dunea with Ericka losing their breathe followed the guys and gals along with Captain Slash. Where were you?, Miles asked Dunea and Ericka. They just smiled and blushed at the same time. Actually the girls were chatting with Bonnie and asked her help to teach them how to fight using their Mobile Skims. The hot and persistent woman taught her different moves that made the couple be wowed with her agility yet in a sophisticated manner of killing or firing her weapons. Bonnie is a kata and samurai expert that with her moves she could defeat the man in The Last Samurai movie Ericka suggested Dunea and her which they watched in their quarters last night. Awe….sommmmeee!!!, both girls eyes sparkled like they never saw a woman move so fast but light as a feather like that.
As you all know, Dox planet is a tiny but uninhabitable planet since Xerxians invaded it two decades ago. Now, we must check if the planet has life, if not we must report to USN of its condition to be able to help build it and protect the living things and forms that might still be alive there. We will rescue the people there and help the wounded or the sick, if there are any. Let's make a good impression, take care of yourself and your buddy. Be the best flighters for the sake of the universe. Alright, go!, Slash said with confidence.
Dox is a planet where citizens living here have multiple partners and Captain Red or Priscilla knew it. She was already born and familiar with couples who are either both men or both women. Or one woman have several men as her husbands and vice versa. Red has twelve brothers and sisters from different dads but one mother, yet since King Xerxian invaded their world, many Xerxians and Sentinels coveted the wives or husbands of Doxian women, including Red's mother. Her three dads and siblings tried to run away from Dox but sentinels killed them and was left with only her mother and two siblings. She wanted to take revenge why she wanted to gain power and wealth. As a pirate, it can open doors for her to meet high-ranking officials and people who could help her to claim her world back to native Doxians, and that is her and her family.
Priscilla, darling, is this the life you want to lead? Once you loot and stary away from good and live a life of lie, you will suffer consequences in the future? But I as your mother will support you all the way because I love you!
Thank you Sierra, you are always a good mother to me. My dads and siblings would have been so happy by now seeing how I have accomplished a position in society. Though in a different path, I know it is still a road where I would be able to give you a home, feed you and protect you! I love you too, mother!, Red said and hugged her mom. Her two siblings namely Gio and Fe later hugged both women going from that famous group hug that is popular in the 21st century.
