Sector 51

Chapter 6: Lycho

The guards hastily shoved me into a cage and looked at me with disgust. I spat at them, the walk down the stairs was brutal, kicking, shoving, muscle spasms. All aside this is the worst day of my trip through interstellar space. (Except of course when I ended up in interstellar space.) The guard tossed in a thin body suit style spacesuit with a helmet identical to the one I originally received from these freaks. I had a very good feeling I was going somewhere without oxygen. (Again.) Through observation I could conclude these Hauxim breathe Sulphuric gases. The atmosphere of Hauximna was yellow, and of course there was the breathing that felt like it was burning my lungs. The guard closed the door of the cell and held his hand on a small keypad, it gave out a buzzing sound most likely confirming the cage was locked. My first plan of action was to escape the cage. I tried sliding through the cage door but my fat head couldn't fit. Neither could anything but my legs. But all aside that plan wouldn't work.

Next I tried using the keypad. Didn't work, of course. How was I so blind! They're aliens!

I slid down the smooth black bars onto the floor. The ship lifted upwards and I felt gravity slip away. I couldn't get my mind off Harvax. And what's worse after that I had to fight robots. Harvax's death intrigued and bothered me. He didn't react to the taser-rod, his blood was purple, and Zervas. He was probably related to him. Brother, cousin, son. The only thing I knew about this guy was that he's male.

The ship burst into hyperspace as I held onto the cage. And just a few seconds later fell out. Hyperspace seemed like an old trick to these people. I felt like I was reliving those first moments in the ship.

When they opened the door I was ready, contrary to last time. I looked at the guards one last time as they grabbed my shoulders and rotated me outwards of the ship, there was a blinding light as I walked down a ramp. The sky was yellow as the binary star system of Proxima Centauri streamed light to the surface. I turned my eyes to the left. The Valiant was resting on an elevated platform. the "airfield" was littered with clear green cargo crates and forklifts. A large Hauxim donning a purple gown approached me.

"Test Subject 2?"

They reached their hand towards me as I turned my head away.

"I'm head of military operations, Fenour"

I looked upwards at her face and nodded

"I see you killed my Ex-Husband?"

I slumped my head downwards, so long as I'm here I'll never be able to get away from that, he seems to be an important guy around here. She laughed

"Oh, do not worry. He did what he needed to do"

I looked back upwards, "What was that?"

She poked my helmet.

"Gave us the capability of humans."

She walked towards a large grey vehicle as the guards pushed on my back. That was my signal to move forward, I bounced upwards with each step. There was a small leap upwards onto the vehicle.

The lady reached upwards to a handle as the ship flew into the air and a protective green barrier appeared in front of the entrance.

"Unfortunately here on Lycho, Murder doesn't require a trial."

She stared down at me angrily, her shadow looming over me as I looked downwards at the surface of Lycho.

"Do you know where the murderers go?"

She slapped my helmet focusing my face onto a large porthole on the top of the ship.

"The bad ones, the rapists, the murderers, the hackers. They go," She looked down at me and gave me an ominous smile. "The bad ones go to Sector 51"

I could see it by now. A massive rotating ring with a long cylindrical shaft going through the middle, anchored to each other by cables of steel with a massive purple solar array beaming out both ends.

"That's... A big ship." I whispered in disbelief.

She laughed as the ship approached a large bay, settling it inwards she floated out and I followed. She motioned to three Hauxim in blue jumpsuits holding taser-rods to come over. Speaking to them in her language she grabbed my wrist.

"These guards will take you through your." She paused, "orientation." She flashed a devious grin at me as the guards grabbed my arms and legs. They were wearing jetpacks of some sort. They flew into one of the steel cables as I fell into the influence of the artificial gravity, slamming my back hard onto the ground. Two Hauxim stood at desks lazily looking at computers similar to Harvax's they tossed me a orange body suit and a mask, looks like my breathing apparatus. Then another guard came and opening a large door saved me into a room. I looked around at the cells and several Hauxim peeked over the second floor barrier yelling wildly. There was one on a bench in the middle of the room patiently reading a book, he looked at me and turned back downwards spiralling into whatever adventure was held in that book. About 50 prisoners barrelled down the stairs towards me holding shivs and cracking their knuckles. I clenched my jaw as they yelled out something vigorous

"They're giving you a welcoming party," The Hauxim on the bench stared at me laughing. He covered his mouth.

"If I were you, I'd get ready for a world of pain."

A/N: Phew! That was crazy! Sorry for the inactivity, it's exam week. Get ready for chapter 6 on Thursday. Trust me... You don't want to miss it.
