let me get you up to speed my name is crane novis, recently i accepted a job to find someone on a dead planet and see if she's alive or not sound simple and easy i know.
but lucky for me nothing is easy
and now we are here, fighting for my life trying to survive and finish the job
"sir there's another life form approaching"
" it appears to be a valaxian"
could it be ?
"well ill be damned she's alive"
"duck!! now "
as she screamed that Mira threw a javelin at one of the beasts behind me killing him on the spot
"nice shot,thanks"
"thank me after we survive this you take those two in front of you ill handle the rest"
we fought the monsters side by side until we killed the last of them
" i m guessing you're Mira,you're a pretty good fighter for a princess"
"yes i am Mira and you are?"
"crane call me crane you're parents send me here to save you"
"well you did a shitty job giving the fact i saved you're ass"
"well i had it under control"
"didn't seem like it"
"that doesn't matter now,all i had to do is find you and bring you back to your parents "
" too bad,i m not going back"
"wait what why "
" my parents gave me away to marry some monster so they can keep their precious land for couple more solar cycles, they don't give a damn about me"
"boohoo you broke my heart, we all have to make sacrifices and right now you have to make that sacrifice so i can get paid"
"get paid?? get paid!!, like i give a shit about your money, i know your kind all you bounty hunters care about is your self"
"my kind ? you know nothing about me"
" tell me how mush did they gave you for my freedom?,15000 credit 20000?.is that how much my life worth"
shit i could've asked for more now i feel like a moron
"yes something like that,now if you don't mind,i have a job to finish and a reputation to maintain now come with me to the ship and lets get the hell out of here"
"over my dead body"
"sir there's something moving towards you at a high speed"
"it appears to be a ....."
"a bloody ice dragon"
"there's a small cave under this hill we can hide there until it's safe"
"no i can kill and we'll be out of here in no time"
"sir you have multiple injuries you need medical attention you cant fight in this condition"
"alright fine ill wait"
the dragon kept lurking around the cave entrance like he could scene our presence and it doesn't appear he'll be leaving soon
"remove your helmet you're wounded let me tend for your wounds"
"with what there's no medical equipment here,unless you want to rub some ice on them there isn't much you can do"
"just trust me and remove it"
"hmm fine"
crane removed his helmet and his clothes and suddenly Mira had this strange look on her face .
"what why you look so shook am i that ugly ?"
"no it's just you're human,i never saw a human before,i thought they were all extinct"
"they are,i m the last one"
"that's impossible you must be hundreds of years old "
"i m not that old i m only hundred and fifty"
Mira put her hands on top of crane wounds and it magically healed
"how did you?i don't recall valaxian having healing powers so how?"
" first tell how did you survive this long?"
"it's a long story"
"the dragon isn't going any where soon so we have plenty of time,alright if you tell me your story ill tell you what really happend to my ship and how i got my powers"
