PLANET MORZEX, 2056

Warden Zor walked through the metal hallways of his prison. His guard—vast, robotic, and merciless—bowed to him as he passed them by. He did not acknowledge them, not because he thought himself above them, but due to genuinely being pissed for the first time in hundreds of years. His footsteps were loud and thunderous. His grey skin was crumbled into Stoney, frustrating lines. And his dark orange eyes were blazed with anger. When he traveled to the tenth floor's laboratory of his floating confinement, his voice was as loud as lightning.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!"

The alien he shouted at was a tiny thing. A timid, slimy ball of green gue, with its nervous system seen through its pale figure. Its large, wide, white eyes widened even more and it was quick to shrink under its desk.

"Warden Zor, I see you're b—back early from your trip."

"Don't play with me C2P. Why is Morzex housing that human prisoner without my consent? I run this prison, I should know the creatures that come into my planet! And a human woman is not suitable for this kind of place. She would not survive it. Her human blood will cause a frenzy in my establishment!"

He glared at the woman as she stood on the opposite side of the room. There was a large sheet of glass separating them, one that restricted her from seeing or hearing anything on the other side. She'd been given a white, baggy prison suit to wear, and her wrists and ankles were tightly confined between metal chains. Her head was tilted to the right as she looked forward, glaring with a wild intensity that almost made him believe that she could see them. He did not like this, not one bit.

"My prison houses the most dangerous aliens in the galaxy. This has to be a joke. Take her to some other prison. In fact, why hasn't she been killed? That's what the council does to their human pets these days."

C2P looked up from the table with a nerve-wracking glint. "I'm sorry General, but I cannot do that. It was the council that authorized her to be here."

That made the alien pause. There was a council that spoke for a large portion of the galaxy, including Morzex. After years of war, it was sanctioned for a group of the brightest and most strategic aliens to advise and protect the planets they counseled, in return for unquestioned loyalty. He wasn't the leader of Morzex at that time. If he was, he would have never agreed to it. He did not like them for their mysterious ways; this prisoner was an example.

"The council... why?"

"Well according to them, this human, Avalon O'Malley, is of high importance due to her DNA. Usually, human DNA is not considered special, but have a look at this."

C2P pulled up a hologram of her internal body structure and zoomed into her reproductive system. Warden Zor did not know much about human biology but even a stupid alien could see that there was something strange about her own.
