It had been nearly 50 years since the Prison incident, a lot had happened Alex sat in the office of the Tanis prefect and looked over a holo pad, she had changed an awlful lot since the war, Alex's hair was long it almost reached the small of her back Alex's blue skin has begun to take on the dark purple hue that came with her age, although for a Hiigaran Alex was still quiet young, Her eyes looked worn unlike the rest of her appearance which was now pampered and neat proper unlike her days aboard the Grasshopper, But Alex's eyes were worn tired as she read over the holopad's contents she sighed, this was her families planet, The Frosts had governed Tanis since the founding of the Sovereignty.
Alex's younger brother sat in his wheel chair near the window of the office and looked out over Illium the capital of Tanis and smiled as the son hit his face, Alex tapped the buttons on the holopad and set it down on her desk and picked up the next one and looked over it as the young girl in a gray uniform stood infront of Alex's desk clutching a bundle of holopads to her chest with a smile "Thank you Ensign" Alex said as she picked up the two holopads and handed them to the girl as she bowed her head "Good day Prefect" She said in a pleasant tone and left "You know, I never thought id see you in Tanis gray again" Alex's brother said and smiled "Let alone being called Prefect" he smiled and looked at Alex who seemed to be asleep in her chair "Thanks" he said and smiled "I mean for coming back, after that crash....i cant walk anymore, barely use my left arm not much of a good Prefect" He said with a smile "Well at least you can spend time with your wife" Alex said and sat up as the screen rose out of her desk and switched on before she pulled out the connection wires and plugged them into her neck and closed her eyes "and you Sis, no husbands on the.." Her brother started "out" Alex snapped as her brother laughed "I'll see you tonight for dinner" he said and left.
Alex surfed the net, her little friend Dawn had gone off to adventure, experience what it was to be in the physical realm, Victor had escaped of coarse and Alex had much of her GrayFox network searching for him and Hayley, even with the incident at the prison the identies of the Foxes still remained a secret. Alex searched and searched for anything that would lead to anything on Hayley or Victor Alex had become even more introverted now, she had hardened herself, He reputation among the military was almost that of her great grandfather ruthless, efficient, cold. She had the respect of the officers that served directly under her but many of the crews of the ships under her command knew little about her but the rumors. Alex still had her job as the GrayFox, making a fortune in information trading she knew every dirty secret in the universe give her five minutes and she could start a war. And yet she still could find the two people that kept her from sleeping...

I sighed sitting in the back of a bar on a planet with inhabitants that hadn't reached anywhere near space travel level. They still road with horse and carts. I was able to hide my alien heritage with hats/bonnets of the people around as well as wearing my hair so they hid my ears. To anymore who looked at me I was just a middle class women. Not quite wealthy but not poor so people left me alone for the most part.
The Outcome of the cryo prison didn't go the way i hoped, I didn't plan on surviving, I had hoped that once Victor destroyed the parasite that had been controlling me that I would be able to blow up the prison with him and myself but it didn't happen. I didn't care that all my bugs were dead, there were all killed on the prison. I hadn't even bothered to take any eggs or venom with me. I had hoped I would die but instead I wound up on this planet without the knowledge of how I got here.
Finishing off the drink I moved out of the bar and into the narrow night streets of the city. I looked up to the sky sadly as I thought about Alex, I missed her. I missed the girl I knew before everything went to hell, before the creature made me betray her.
I was brought out of my memories as a cart went by. I continued to walk again to the near by taxi station and got into one of the carts. I told the person were to take me and fell silent once more. I barely talked anymore, when i did it would come out in a soft whisper. I had to move every 10 years on this planet since I didn't age like they did and if I had stayed in one place for 50 years they would become suspicious of me and think me a 'witch'. I looked up to the sky once more and prayed that maybe tonight I'd die in my sleep.

A message screen popped up in Alex's vision "Hey boss, we have something interesting, the long range exploration wing of Torrent Inc has turned up an interesting report, they have a cloaked base on a primitive world in the Termanius" the message chanted as the report as downloaded Alex went through it reading every line twice before her eyes widened "Found you" Alex growled with a sadistic smile on her face as two other messege windows came up giving the coordinates to the planet "Bring her to me" Alex said before the windows closed. A few days past, as a ship burst out of hyperspce over the planet, they were met by a cruiser owned by Torrent Inc, the briefing was short the men that had come by the orders of the GrayFox were not to disturbe the people of the planet they must blend in, the pair made their way to the planet dressed as a pair of traveling doctors to search for Hayley.  |

I woke to the sounds of whispering and smiled slightly, I sat up in the small bed and looked at the door, I caught a batch of bright blond hair duck back behind the door and heard some more giggling. I got up and walked to the door and quickly opened it and pounced on the people behind it. Although I truly hoped to die, I couldn't help but let the sound of childish screams and giggles lift my spirits slightly as I tickled the culprits. Four children were in my arms, three girls and one young boy. All of them were younger then 10 and each of them reminded me of what i had been when I was as young as them. They were all orphans and all siblings. The day I moved to this part of the planet I had met them. They had been living on their own for a few months and even though i knew i shouldn't I couldn't leave them to starve.
I let go of the kids and made them go to the kitchen while I changed. When i came to the kitchen they were still whispering and giggling, I took in the kids and frowned when I saw one looking paler then the others.
"Mina, are you feeling alright?" I asked softly and placed my hand on her head and knelt by her. It was sad, she was the youngest at 4 and was almost always sick. I wished I could take them away from the pollution of the city and take them back to the worlds I knew.
"Is feel tired" she muttered and i wrapped my arms around her. 'Maybe I have enough money to have a doctor look at her again' I thought running my hand through her hair soothingly.

I was about to pick up Mina and put her back in bed when I heard a bang from the door before it was kicked open. I moved the kids behind me and stood in front of them in order to protect them while they all moved to the corner of the room to huddle together. Silently cursing the fashion of the planet and unpractical it was in this situation. I tensed feeling the energy's of the intruders before moving out of my defensive stance. 'So they have found me. Couldn't the kids be older' I thought and waited for them to appear.

"I do not hide anymore, this place is primitive and I was not able to leave" I told them softly still not used to talking too much. I heard a cough behind me and turned my back on the new people as I went over to Mina and the others. I placed my hand on her head and felt her temperature before pulling her into my arms again. I didn't want to leave them but I knew they wouldn't be safe with me, nor were they safe here.
"Mama, what are they talking about?" i heard and turned my attention to the eldest girl who was 9.
"It means I have to leave Nika" I stated sadly.

"It dosent matter" the one next to the door said as he sighed "we have a job to do so just stick her in the neck and we can leave this dust ball" he said and looked at Hayley before the other phased out and appeared next to Hayley "Not kiddies, closes your eyes" He said to the children and like lightning shoved a hypospay into Hayleys neck and injected the mass seditives into her body "Here" he said and smiled as he took out to bars of gold pressed latnum and placed them on the table "dont spend it all" he said and grabbed Hayley

I looked at the kids and placed Mina back with the others as I heard the men talk. I smiled at them softly and waited till the guy moved. I didn't move or try to dodge as the needle entered my neck and fell unconscious.

two men took Hayley outside and when no one was around they were teliported back to the ship. it took a few hours to reach Tanis, the men transfered Hayley over to the Tanisi Police who took her to a holding area, it looked like it belonged to royal intelligence all manner of interogation tool lay around the room as the men strung Hayley up by her arms and left

I had woken half way to Tanis but didn't move to do anything, I moved when they asked, I didn't have the will to fight knowing that no one knew about the parasite or of the small amount of people i had saved. I shifted slightly to put off some pressure on my shoulder but other then that just waited for what ever torture they had planned, I only hoped that what ever they did once i was no more use they would kill me.

i set of bright lights beamed down on Hayley turning the rest of the room pitch black as the sound of the sliding door opening and closing echoed in the room as the soft sound of chucks on the metal floor sounded as someone stood out of sight in the darkness simple watching Hayley.

I closed my eyes when the lights hit and kept them closed. I wouldn't be able to see anyone so there wasn't a point to even try and look through the light. I sagged my head with a sigh and sifted again but not in a bad way. "Get it over with" I said softly.

"get what over with" the figure said "I would of thought my presence would be easily noticed by you" the person said, "mind you abandoning me seems to be a habit of yours" Alex growled as she stayed in the shadows "Now that ive have you in my grasp...I dont even know what to do with you" Alex said and folded her arms as she stared at Hayley "I was planing on hurting you, but what would the point in that be..." Alex asked her self and thought
