Prologue
In the spaces above the planets of Essur lived nomads. Flying their ships escaping the monarchy forged long ago t keep peace and order in Essur. The citizens of Essur believed the nomads to be evil pirates, they also called them "The Devil's Arm Band", also, "Devil Pirates". as the government called them "Demons of the Realm" The nomads in order to survive formed alliances with other nomad families, sometimes even merging to create larger and stronger groups in hope to someday take on the monarchy.This way of life was livable for life times. But as one angry young boy was born into the nomad way of life, things began to change. This young boy hated all, nomads, and monarchy, he didn't want to be a nomad because he felt they were to peaceful, and hated the monarchy because he felt they were too controlling, and religious. So he formed a new family, at first he was alone with a stolen corvette. But as time went on he met a young girl. The girls name was lauren she was sweet, and beatiful, and agreed completely with Cryus. So they in a sense merged into one larger family Lauren dumped her one person fighter for to join up cryus. As time went on new people heard of the couple and wanted to join them, but Cryus knew he didn't want just anyone. He then saw two strangers and instantly knew they were ready for the life. Their names were Alice and Hook both great shots. As the years went by a young boy joined their crew his name was billy. All of them were ready to be the outcasts of both worlds.
Chapter 1:
Cryus laid still in his make shift 2 person cot, he wondered what would become of him without his love, he wondered what would happen if he ever got caught. His eyes slowly moved across the ceiling, 4 feet above him, the scratches, and markings that found their way, through the years, on the cold metal wall. He shivered a little, so he quickly glanced over at the wall, to his right, to check the temperature of the room. The heat must be off again, he clenched his fist and softly said under his breathe, "Billy, I'm gonna kill you."
He glanced over at the clock that leaned closely on the edge of his table, in red glared at him, 6:00. Puzzled that he slept in without Billy walking in, he crawled out of bed. He checked himself for any cuts, he seemed clean, so he quickly dressed himself in a old Essur Blue combat shirt, made for the warriors that fought in the Pandeom War back 7 years ago, and black commando pants he got off a old merchant. He looked for his headband but couldn't find it, so he got his old pirate jacket on and walked into the kitchen and mess hall.
In the kitchen, was a lively Alice cooking up her own version of momma's pancakes and eggs. He thought to himself, "Hook probaly did good last night." And then rethought that when he saw Hook in his chair, arms folded and eyes closed. Cryus tapped on Hooks shoulder, Hook's gray eyes looked up to Cryus, he nodded and went back to sleep.
Cryus realized his previous thought was correct, just Hook didn't want Billy to know. Cryus turned around and saw Alice looking at him, her blonde hair was down today. She said, "good morning Cryus!." A big smile crossed her face, "how was your rest?"
"Same old, except it was freezing when I woke up, and I can't find my headband."
"Billy has the headband, and Hook and I thought it was extremely hot so we turned our heat down I didn't know it would effect you."
"What ever happens in your own time is alright, just stop with the heat turning down." He laughed, and looked aroudn the room, "What happened to Billy." He looked at Hook who was still 'asleep'.
Alice yelled, "Billy get over here you brat!" Cryus's face went really red.
"Lauren is sleeping, so stop yelling." He looked down at alice who was scared half to death. She turned around and went back to cooking. And then came Billy into the room who wouldn't stop stomping.
"Yes, Alice my dear." Billy smiled like he just did something amazing. "Oh, Cryus here you go." He threw the headband to Cryus, "I thought Alice would find it funny."
"Billy, as long as you don't use my stuff to try to flirt with Alice then I am completely fine with you flirting with alice. Oh, and stay away from my wife."
"Not my fault she is beatiful and walking in now!" Lauren walked in, her short blonde hair was a mess today.
"Hey kid, Cryus stop leaving your knife under your pillow." Cryus nodded and then alice turned to them with her pans in hand.
"BREAKFAST!, oh sorry Cryus no more yelling." She giggled. Everyone gathered around the table and looked at Lauren. Puzzled Lauren sat down, and then everyone sat down with her.
She then spoke up, "Who do you think I am scortwych or Queen Krisstine?"
Cryus looked at her, "Your our Queen, so you beat Queen Krisstine."
"Well stop."
Alice noticed the almost fight and cheerfully said, "Cryus do you think I should cut my hair?" Hook opened his eyes in shock.
"No, your hair is to beatiful to cut it. I like it long."
Alice giggled, " I know just wanted to wake you up, now eat."
Cryus sat alone in the ships cockpit. As he glanced over the map to check for his location compared to the path the merchant ships he was tracking. He noticed that the merchant ships were slower then usually, but before he could really think about it a breathe came from above him. Startled he looked up to see Lauren standing there with her cocky smile.
“What’s new Captain, I mean sire.” She giggled, but Cryus was still too puzzled to make any crude remarks. So his glaring traced down her and back to the map log. Lauren confused sat in the co pilot seat, which for good reason was not used often.
Every time someone sat in the seat he thinks of a lucky assassin that got real close to killing. Ever since then Cryus barely opens up to strangers that he doesn’t plan on killing.
He mumbled to Lauren, “They’re slow.”
Lauren looked at the map, “yea that is odd, but don’t forget last time they were moving slow, the reckons were busy fighting that Essurain battleship. And we all know the reckons are died now, and no other families would ever dream of coming in this area. “
“That’s the reason I am so confused, maybe they are caring something very important, yet very heavy. I don’t want to walk in their guns blaring to see 50 soldiers standing there at ready. That would surely mean death for all of us.”
Lauren traced a E on Cryus face, “You know what, we could always put a large E here, like one of the commanders have. They wouldn’t kill a commander, you could walk in a and walk out.”
That’s the worst idea I have ever heard in my life.”
