The kraadhoit ship flew through the vacuum of space with great speed as it was being chased by a gigantic colossus.

Bilxies: "Hold on!"

Bilxies clutches the ship controls as he navigates through the cosmic waste of his now dead planet Uzuno, tears flow down his eyes as he bore witness to his now dead culture, and as he looked at holographic image of the dark deity chasing the ship...

Bilxies clutches the ship controls as he navigates through the cosmic waste of his now dead planet Uzuno, tears flow down his eyes as he bore witness to his now dead culture, and as he looked at holographic image of the dark deity chasing the ship he knew that she was growing closer. Bilxies glances back at the queen and young prince in the back of the ship, and he swore on the life of his now dead king that he would protect them.

Bilxies: ["We have to get away"]

Bilxies knew that their was only one chance to escape, they needed to activate the hyper drive, and go into hyperspace, and yet that would take time to activate and the gigantic goddess was gaining.
......

The Devourer having consumed a small planet found herself chasing after a small ship in the middle of space. She did this to communicate with the little creature inside, for only they had the answers she was looking for, answers to the new strange emotions she was feeling inside her chest.

It was almost laughable to the Goddess of immense size and power, that she needed the help of such microscopic beings, she needed their help to such an extent that she was willing to chase them through space and yet the comedic principal would change nothing.

Devourer: "You will not escape."

The Devourers breath stirs up the cosmos as the shock wave rattled the fleeing ship ever so slightly. The Devourer having seen the ship shake ever so slightly refuses to speak any further, for her voice was to immense for the little ship and those on board to handle. She needed them alive, which because of her immense scale made this chase more difficult.

The great titan constantly used her cosmic awareness to peer inside the speck sized ship. She saw the little solder behind the controls, she saw how he bravely defied her with his every breath. She saw the little queen and prince huddle together in the corner of the ship, scared of her very visage. Seeing all of the emotions on the ship actually made the chase ever more fun. The devourer flying ever closer to the ship couldn't help but smile, revealing her planet sized white teeth. Victory would soon be hers.
.......

Bilxies: "Is that monster smiling?"

Bilxies feeling nothing but rage watches the screen as the world eater drew ever closer. She was literally on top of them, and who knew what she would do to them.  They would not have the power to resist even a single strand of hair.

Queen: "Bilxies what are we going to do?"

Bilxies: "Just hold on my queen, we will make it through this. I swear."

Bilxies looks down at the monitor and smiles, the hyperdrive was almost completely charged, all they needed was a few minutes more.

Bilxies with a sense of victory soon looks back at the holographic images of their pursuer and soon his smile disappears.
