The Adventures of Tac and Yebba

Yebba Part II

As I was flying a ship came on my radar. Just to my surprise is was Dryster. Finally after a week of just skimming the perimeter she shows up. "Well, well, well, if it isn't little miss perfect," I said to myself. Dryster has the reputation of being perfect, no record, perfect grades, and just perfect looks. One of those kind of people. Anyway, once I ketch up to her I send a harpoon into the back of her ship and pull her closer to mine. She realizes this and puts the engines at full power. My ship gets jerked forwards as I thrust my engines up to full power, restricting both ships from moving.

Once the ship is locked up to mine I board her ship, hand-cuff her, and sit her down for questioning. "So Dryster, talk." I say in the most intimidating voice as I can. "What is there to talk about? Oh by the way, you don't scare me. So don't try," she says scoffing. "I'm not trying to scare you, I just need information." I told her without revealing anything. To be honest I was scared, becuase if I didn't get any information I would go back in the box. I got a chill as I thought about it. "Okay, what your game Yebba? You wanna get info, say I live, then once u turn my back you slit my throat?" she said without breaking. "I don't play those kind of games. That's not my type." I answer.

"Yeah, whatever. I'll tall but only one thing." she answered. "Where is she? I swear if you don't answer me I--" I was cut off. "Oh shit." she looked out the window. "What?" I ask irritabley. "That's a simple answer Yebba, why don't you see who's trying to break into your ship." she replied. "TAC?!?!?!" I yell. I tie up Dryster hastily which I will later regret. I put on my mask so I can breathe and try to get Tac's attention. "Who the hell is Tac? And why does everyone keep calling me that!?!?!" Rika yelled at me. "I--uh.." I stutter. I open the door and she follows me in. She sits down and waits for me to sit down near her. "I don't know who the hell Tac is, so stop calling me that. My name is Rika." Rika says. "Right." I feel a familiarity about that name. I decide to do a check on her and find out who she is.
Rika
Status: Dangerous
Profession: Bounty hunter/ Assassin
Employer: Mechlavikz
Comment: Stay away at all costs
I sit down wiping my hands on my pants trying not to show my nervousness. "Why are you so nervous Yebba? I guess you know who I am, I hate to do this but-" she says as knife comes flying towards my face. I get out of the way as fast as I can but still get grazed by the sharp blade. I touch my skin and it slowly starts to close up. "What the hell?!?!" I just wanted to talk. "Yeah well is didn't, do want me to do this the easy way or the hard way?" she stares at me intently. "Either way I lose." I say as I lower my head and feel tears roll down my cheeks. "Please Yebba don't cry it makes-- I asked you a question-- your okay I'm here with you now-- get u-- stay her-- Ahhhhhhhhhh! Son of a b**** get a hold of yourself.

Tac said as I could see the stress on her face through misty eyes. Her anger grew as she suddenly bolted to me with her hand in a fist. I fell to the floor, unconscious. When I woke up, Tac was typing furiously on the dash of my ship. "Hey! I said," don't touch that." Tac looked back at me with a glare as she slowly walked over and bent down to where I was tied up. She leaned closer and whispered in my ear, "stay quiet, or I will have to slice your throat until you do." I looked up at her, but whipped my eyes back down as she stood up and walked back over to the dash.

She kept typing furiously like before, but her expression changed. The ship stopped at and unknown planet, maybe it was a moon. She stops typing and gets up from her chair to grab the print out. As she walks back she has a look of empathy in her eyes, but in a matter of seconds it turns back to complete anger hatred. I'm that moment I knew exactly what wash going on in her internal conflict. It's confusing to her, and to the people she encounters. In the split seconds of her empathetic gaze I saw Tac, the loving and caring girl I knew. But after she was gone, Rika came back full force, the dangerous and killing Rika. She pulled out her knife and bent down to get really close to my face. "You wanna know what this knife is for?" she asked smirking at her own little joke. "I don't need know what it is for, I already know." I reply. "Then would you like to enlighten me?" she said sarcastically. "Yeah I'll let you know, first you're going to taunt me with it, try and scare me. Then you take a wipe and clean it off. Almost to the last step, you take that knife and put on my throw and drag along my skin so I been out slowly and painfully for a couple of seconds. Then you'll fully complete the task and get on with your life, not knowing that you killed your best friend."
