????: The Bubbies.
Orûnn: What are the Bubbies? And why do you hate them?
????: You ask too many questions. Get moving and I’ll tell you more once we get to my ship.
The figure put the gun up to Orûnn’s back and slowly pushed him forward. Getting back out of the city would be difficult, so they had to stay in the shadows and avoid any kind of interaction. They moved swiftly through alleyways and stayed very close to the walls.
Orûnn really wanted to fight back, but was smart enough to know that he wasn’t faster than a bullet, or whatever that gun fired.
????: So two of you wound up here?
Orûnn: What do you mean?
????: I came across another rock after yours. Where is the other one like you?
Orûnn: I killed him. It was self defense.
They made it outside the city and the figure was beginning to get nervous. He shoved Orûnn and told him to pick up the pace. After a few minutes of walking they stopped in a part of the field where the grass was higher. Orûnn looked around, confused as to why they had stopped, and then suddenly a black and silver ship appeared right in front of them.
Orûnn: Cloaking.
????: Wow we got ourselves a genius over here [b]SHUT UP AND GET IN THE SHIP NOW![/b]
A door opened from the bottom of the ship and they made their way inside. The ship had a bleak interior, with gray walls and red lights. There was lots of weapons next to the walls like grenades, a sword, and some guns. Every seat in the ship was black and looked really uncomfortable.
Orûnn: Tell me who you are.
????: Fine, since you are going to die anyways. My name is Gynok and I am a soldier of the Krall.
Gynok pulled out a glowing red ring and placed it around Orûnn’s wrists. The ring immediately tightened itself and shocked Orûnn.
Gynok: Now sit down. Any sudden movements and you’re gonna get a shock.
Orûnn sat in a seat and it was actually surprisingly comfortable. Gynok started up the ship and ascended into the sky. For the first twenty minutes or so after they broke out of orbit, the two of them sat in complete silence, but Orûnn remembered to ask about the Bubbies.
Orûnn: These... Bubbies you spoke of. What are they?
Gynok: The enemy of my people. They don’t deserve to exist. They are small and weak! We will destroy them and their pathetic empire!
Orûnn: Why don’t they deserve to exist? What did they do to make you want to destroy them?
Gynok activated the ships autopilot and got out of his seat. He walked over to Orûnn and leaned over so that their faces were mere inches apart. Gynok took off his helmet, revealing his red face and teeth along with his glowing orange eyes that seemed to be filled with rage. He spoke softly to Orûnn.
Gynok: Have you ever seen something that was so pathetic... that you just felt like obliterating it? Beating it to a pulp, just because you can?
Orûnn: No not really. I was born only a few days ago, so I haven’t really gotten to experience much... I stole a hot dog. So you really have no actual reason to hate the Bubbies other than because you want to?
Gynok: ........ no more questions.
Gynok walked back over to his seat and continued flying the ship. Orûnn was going to ask where they were going, but Gynok seemed angry enough, so they continued to sit in silence.
/Back on OffTopic/
A golden, spherical ship touches down on OffTopic. The circular door on the ship opens up and a Bubby walks out, his golden armor glistening in the sunlight, and a golden and blue axe in his hand.
????: Didn’t think I’d be back so soon!
The Bubby was receiving a message from intelligence
Intelligence: We have the coordinates of that nest rock. You might want to get there before the Krall do.
????: I think they’re already on their way there. I think I just missed them.
Intelligence: Then you better hurry.
The Bubby ran back into his ship and left OffTopic once more to stop the Krall from doing something potentially catastrophic.
