Don't Apologize

Chapter 11 - Xyladecon (Part 2)

After the speech was finished, the general wanted to know how can they help them. ''You have to show us our hide out'' Lunar Knight said and looked at Dash Knight. ''No, never!'' Sallak yelled, refusing. ''With all due respect general Sallak, but it is the only way we can know what do they take from you'' Dash Knight spoke calmly and tilted his head aside. ''Fine'' The general said and left his riffle. They led the four through the sand city. After some time they reached the hide out place, further from the city. It was hard to find by anyone who attacked them, it was all covered in sand.

''There'' Sallak said and uncovered the place slowly. ''That's a good place'' Lunar Knight announced and looked what they were hiding inside. ''This are weapons, why do you hide them?'' Dash Knight questioned curiously. ''The weapons are rare on this planet, it is all we have in the waste land, even that they want to steal from us'' Sallak said and frowned slightly. ''I am sorry, but why don't you fight them? You can't be cowards or they will always know how to beat you up'' Dash Knight spoke seriously and paced around the sand.

''They won't fight us, but they theft!'' One of them said. Dash Knight raised his eye brow and shook his head. ''When do they come?'' He asked once again and looked at the general. ''Noon'' The general simply responded. Dash Knight looked at the sun and saw it closing up to the noon. ''We will wait for them, and then see what we can do'' He said and started walking back to the city. Lunar Knight frowned slightly and moved along. Hyper Knight inhaled sharply and followed his god. ''How can we trust them?'' The four would hear them say.

''I don't know, lets see what can they do, if not, kill them'' They said once again and Dash Knight frowned. Hyper Knight placed a hand on his shoulder, not wanting him to get aggressive towards the specie. He shook his head and walked to the building they were in before. Dash Knight leaned on the wall and looked at his wounded shoulder. ''Ah, we will fix that'' Sallak said and gestured one of his people to come. ''Give him some medical attention'' He said and the other one nodded. He led Dash Knight away and left the other three.

After an hour it was rightly noon. The sky darkened as the portals opened outside the building. Dash Knight examined everything carefully and then leaned on the door frame, crossing his legs. Hyper Knight looked at him and raised his eye brow in confusion. The people that came out of the portal had long tusks aside of their mouth. They had rubber like skin and hairs at some places. They had long hairy tails and big pointy ears. Two small eyes on each side of their head, colored greenish. ''Who are they?!'' One of them growled. The general got out of the building.

''A new friends of mine'' He said carefully, Dash Knight nodded slowly and looked at the beast. ''They are here to help us'' Sallak finished. ''Help you in what?'' The beast growled again. ''You won't be steeling our weapons anymore'' Sallak said and the beast laughed hysterically.  Dash Knight stepped out along with the others. ''We are not going to fight you, but you will leave this planet and their weapons, after that you will return to your system'' Dash Knight and looked between the specie and general who nodded in agreement. The beast laughed and shook his head.

''We are taking what we need here, and a person like you ain't gonna stop us!'' He laughed out and Dash Knight frowned. ''Would you leave the place if I told you I am a god?'' Dash Knight questioned in sly tone and looked at the beast. He growled and sneered then. ''You will convince us on that! No way!'' He laughed and his people, too. Dash Knight tilted his head aside a little and then raised his hand to his head level. He relaxingly extended his two fingers and the other three were half clenched. He formed smoke around his fingers, waiting for an order.

''What?! Kill them!'' The one ordered and the general retreated. Dash Knight played a smirk on his lips and threw the smoke their direction, choking them. Hyper Knight gestured his hand quickly and threw the net around them. ''He will throw you in the orbit, or you will leave and never come back'' He said and paced around the net. ''Fine!'' The one that seemed like leader growled and stood up. Hyper Knight removed the net as they turned around to them last time before entering the portal. The portals closed and the sky was clear again.

''Thanks, your majesty, we have to repay you on this'' Sallak said and walked to the god. ''No need'' He spoke calmly. ''Please, take one of our weapons'' He said and handed a riffle to all of them. ''Whoa, thanks'' Hyper Knight said and looked at the big weapon. ''Now, redirect your planet to another system I believe, and no worries, they won't be coming back'' Dash Knight said and the general nodded, gesturing for his people to do something. ''It was pleasure meeting you, god'' He said and walked away. Dash Knight smiled and then moved his head for other three to come.

They walked few minutes back to the ship and then prepared for the take off. In no time they were in the planet's orbit. ''That wasn't so bad'' Lunar Knight said brushed the sand off. ''Talk in your name'' Dash Knight breathed out and Hyper Knight looked at him. ''At least we have our system clear'' The communication officer said and drove the ship back to their planet. ''Yeah, that's good'' Lunar Knight spoke as they entered the stratosphere. Dash Knight sighed and looked at the weapons that specie gave them as a thank and a gift.
