why me

"Get ready to transform" ailign said packing his black cloak into a bag. They would go undercover as gilacs for there questionings, the gilac known for being unfriendly to other worlders. The last transmition coming from the city lornis largest fueling station, they prepared their supplies.
"Somethings off. If they could destroy the android they would have done it on the space craft. Why wait until they reached the city?" Roge asked
"They could have taken her to be disassembled at one of the factories or by a merchant. She wouldn't attack if megan commanded it." Ailign responds.
"Sell her for parts. That'd get them enough coin to only make it to their next stop." Roge said
"We don't know what artis's bank accounts look like. He could have enough to fund the whole thing." Ailign said.
His preparations done he began to transform, his body first turning a sickly green then bulging outwards like slime.
"I hate the gilac there so disgusting" roge grumbles already transforming his own body. They had small transmitters in their ears that would translate their conversations for them, ailign worried about their accents.
"Remeber to keep the conversations short. We don't want them to know were not gilacs." The gilac ailign said
"Yes my prince" roge said
They made their way out of the space craft then, there bodies slithering slowly onto the fueling platform. Inside they quickly find some gilac who would talk, claiming that they'd seen a mech with two of race unknown making there way to the market the privious day, the gilac asked them why they were interested, coming up with the excuse they were slave traders of exotic aliens, the gilacs lips loosened further, telling them of the a trading center on the first floor.
"Whould we check it out?" Roge asked ailign
"Let's check out the market first and then the trading area" I said
Roge was starting get anxious, his mate being so close. Ailign worried the young soldier would give them away, scolding him on the elevator down to the market.
"Let me do the talking" ailign said "Your going to give us away with your insistent manner."
Roge was quite the rest of the time, ailign quickly finding a new lead at one of the fruit stands. The gossip of the mech males and there strange alien companions being hot gossip. Two of the mechs were regulars, outlaws finding there homes on the glec planet. Ailign suspected they had choosen it for the easy money in the popular slave traiding. A mech male could easily rise to the top here.
"Let's go to the slave trading floor" ailign says
"My prince you don't want to check out the club? The lead said that's where they were last seen." Roge said
"Well go there after I have a suspicion" I say already in the elevator to decent to the designated floor.
Unlike the other floors, the slave trading market was an open area, cages sprawled out in rows housing various exotic beast. Questioning went quicker here, showing the merchants the species they were looking for on a tablet, they quickly found one who had seen one.
"She sold yesterday" the gilac said
"Who bought her?" Ailign asked
"One of the factory owners, he was looking for labor" the gilac said
"Did she have golden hair!?" Roge suddenly yelled out.
"Yes" the Gilac said
Ailign put an arm up to hush the now frantic roge, the merchant getting a suspicious look to his eye.
"What factory?" I asked
Making our way back up to the club floor roge was on edge. Panting now the warrior looked ready to jump ailign.
"My mate is I'm a goddamned factory! Let me go there now!" Roge yelled
"Keep your voice down roge. Or do I have to remind you were on a covert mission." I snarled.
"You'd be the same if it was your mate" roge yelled
"We know where your mate is. We don't even know what artis did with megan." I calmly reply
"Why aren't you more angry!? That bastard has your mate!" Roge said
"I am angry" I reply "I'm getting ready for the kill" I say
Questioning at the club didn't get them much further other then the simple fact that the mecha were regulars, often renting out one of the back rooms. The gilac bar tended didn't know much more except they were see halling slaves.
"This lead runs dry" ailign said
"Let's go get Amy now and then stalk out this place. Wait for them to return." Roge said
"That'll take to long. I suspect they've already ran to another city." Ailign said
"Then where do we go from here?" Roge asks
"First we get your mate, then we'll ask her what she knows" ailign says, beginning his transformation back to his original form in the middle of the club. Rogue quickly follows suite, the nearby gilac making way for them on the dance floor. Ailign put his pants on then made his way out, his long strides caring him forward.

Retrieving Amy wasn't hard, they quickly found the factory and roge began haggling for her release.
"I'm telling you she's my fucking mate who was kidnapped and sold illegaly." Roge yelled "I don't care how much you spent you fucking prick. Your going to release her or I'm going to file a complaint with your goverment."
"20 millom crunts or no deal." The gilac replied simply raising his small arms in the air in fustration. "Government won't care. I purchased her at a legal venture. 20 million crunt."
"Fine have your stupid money." Ailign said holding up his watch and swiping it to the factory owners tablet. The transaction done with, the girl was quickly brought up to them in chains. They were on an industrial stair case overlooking the large factory of metal work. Amy was already filthy from a day's labor, suit clinging to her hair and clothes.
"Unchain her" roge snarled at the gilac. The one halling her up the stairs bent over to unlock the cuffs around her ankles.
"Let's leave now" ailign said ushering the couple forward. Amy was shaking all over in roges arms, who gently tried to soothe the trembles with an attentive hand.
Back on the space ship they sat Amy down, roge offering her a warm drink she began telling them her story.
"We want to know where they took megan." Ailign said "do you remeber anything at all? Did they say where they were going?"
Amy shook her head, clumps of hair coming forward on her dirty face.
"They were talking in the mech language for half the conversation." She said
"Did any words stand out at all?" Ailign asked
"They kept repeating vlower" She said after thinking it over for awhile.
"Two?" Ailign asked not looking back at the android.
"Vlower is a city in planet glec. It is approximately an hour flight from here going the max speed permitted in the atmosphere." Two said
"Start the engines two" ailign says while rushing to his seat, roge quickly following after him.
"Will we find megan?" Amy asked weakly
"Yes" ailign said with certainty.
"My prince a message just came through from an unidintified sender on planet glec. Would you like me to read it?" Two said
"I already know what it is. It's megan randsome. Send it to my tablet two." Ailign said "can you track the message?"
"No my prince, it was encrypted thoroughly." Two said
Looking over the message it was apparent that indeed they were in vlower, the city name coming up as Megan's ransome drop off area, the cordinatiate pointing to an old crate dock. She would be left there after I sent the money, with one of them as a sniper in the distance if I brought anyone else along no doubt. They had to be somewhere close by then. The time set by the randsome was in two days, just enough time for me to find megan myself. I could just go along with their plans, there randsome amount wouldn't even put a dent in my coffers but where was the fun in that. I wanted blood to be spilt, revenge for those who thought they could take and hurt my mate. They would pay the price of my ire.
