Lost In Stardust

Chapter Eleven

They all stood silent. Each in their own personal hell. Delta was contemplating whether to
Run or stay.
"Maybe if I run now,I can make it to another galaxy",she wondered.
Omega was thinking about cheese.
While Dax was trying to find the meaning in Alpha's words.
"Why did he say what he said?"
"What am I missing?"
"Why is Omega poking Delta?"

Haze was the first to break the silence. "Well,I appreciate the overpowering stench of sadness covering our little group here,however,we have asses to kick and laws to break so let's gooooo",he cheered pointing toward the ship.

Alpha looked at his family and asked,"Are you sure...because once you say yes,there's no turning back".

They all nodded.

"It's either all of us or none of us",Beta stated firmly.

"Yeah,let's do this",Alpha grinned.
"Besides,it's just a guy with a smoke machine",she winked at Ace.
"Delta!",Alpha warned.
She shrunk back a little but recovered immediately and put an arm around Ace.
She whispered something in his ear and his face instantly lighted up. He gave her a huge smile then followed her to the ship.

"M'lady",Omega held out his hand to Taya. She giggled then took it. They both made their way to the back of the room where the others were gathered.

Justus and Sirena were watching Alpha with a strange look. They knew how much he hated what he had become. He had committed some of the worst crimes imaginable. And he was ready to commit some more if it took him any closer to revenge. They weren't sure whether Alpha was really concerned about Dax's grandmother or whether he was just using the boy as an excuse to get what he wanted. They were sure that Alpha wouldn't let anything happen to them but they were going against an entity that was out of his control.

The worst part about the darkness was that it wasn't some fog or smoke or spirit. It was a person who knew right from wrong. Who chose to hurt others to save himself. An evil soul hiding behind a beautiful face.

Alpha was standing alone now. He was deep in thought. Dax had left him and was now standing beside Delta. Both were talking,gesturing at each other.

Justus and Sirena moved closer to Alpha until each were standing on either side of him.
"One of us isn't going to make it",they whispered.

Alpha clenched his fists and walked swiftly away from his younger sisters. He didn't want them to see the pain etched on his beautiful features. His hazel eyes had misted and it was taking him all his strength not to break down.

"I need to talk to Delta"
