Chapter 8: New Companion



[New companion: Name? Now or later?]

Later. He is holding the naked body of the Zondora female with her face close to his. He is trying to keep her warm. She opens her eyes yet is unable to see and starts to panic. Zander can see that she has the deepest violet colored eyes he's ever seen. Holding onto her she finally speaks to him.

"Wh-why am I ... s-so co-old? Why can't... I see?" She reaches out and feels his face. Feeling that he's human, she calms down.

"You've been in cyro sleep for god only knows how long. You just woke up so don't expect your eyes to work for a few minutes. What's your name"?

She ponders this for a minute before responding. Her eyesight comes back. She sees that she's naked and all the dead bodies on the floor. She also sees that he's not much different then her except for the hair. He has no spikes on his head like she does. Seeing the uniform she backs away from him in fear. "NO. Stay away from me. I'm not going back into that thing." She hugs her knees to her chest and lowers her head to him.

"Please don't be afraid. I just woke up myself and found this." He walks over to the table and grabs another set of clothes for her. He walks them over to her and hands them over.

She's hesitant at first. Seeing that it's purple and gold in color she grabs them and gets dressed. While getting dressed she talks. "Thank you. I don't know my name. Will you please call me whatever you like. I don't remember much other than I was stripped naked and thrown in that THING. I'm not going back in there. Please don't make me." Her eyes are pleading with him.

Zander is amazed by her body and how perfect it is. He notices that she's not putting on the shoes. "Okay. I'll call you Jessee. Would you like to travel with me till you find out who you are"?

She nods to him. A notification pops up in his view.

'Hmmmm. That's totally cool'. He looks over at Jessee and sees that she's typing away on a holographic board. Information is flying by at an incredible rate. Using his inspection skill only basic information is revealed about every thing in the room. He goes back to what looks like a weapon locker. He's able to see what looks like a firearm and possibly some kind of sword.

Grabbing out a firearm he inspects it.

[S&W .45ACP Laser Rounds]

(Basic weapon, 25 rounds, damage 2 shot kill expect for the head).

Thinking to himself. Hmmm, nice weapon. He straps two of them to his waste. He then straps another two to his thighs. He tosses two over to Jessee who catches them in mid air and places them on the desk and goes back to work. He goes and grabs a bandolier of clips for his firearms. He equips this to himself. He grabs what looks like a sword hilt. He inspects it.

[Laser Long Sword]

(Basic weapon, cauterize wounds on hit, blade comes out to about 32 inches long. Blade color purple. Other blade colors upon modification).

"Fuck yeah!!" Zander grabs four of these and places them on his back. Two blades are golden in color since their blade length comes out to about 26 inches and the other two are purple.

Jessee stops at the information that she's seeking. She leaves it on the screen and walks over to Zander. She slips her hands around his back and puts her head on his back. She then talks to him. "I've been in there for 1000 years. Something bad happened. Will you please help me out. I need to know what happened to my family." She goes quiet with a heavy sigh.

[New Quest: Help Jessee Find Her Past]

[Reward: Hidden]

[Failure: Instant Death to Jessee and -5 levels]

'Fuck you Kris. You really going to kill her'?

'Yes. Yes I will. She better treat you nice or I kill her'.

"Okay let's figure out what happened." Looking back at the lockers he wants to know if there's a way to store anymore of this stuff. He looks back over at the dead bodies on the floor. He removes Jessee's hands and walks over to the a female. He picks her body up and it disappears. 'What the Fuck. Kris where did she go?' He goes back over to the locker and touching a laser sword, it disappears. He keeps touching every thing in the locker and they all disappear.

Kris LAUGHS. 'Just look the fuck in your storage stupid'.

Zander walks over to a table and looks in his [Inventory] tab. He sees the body of the dead woman and all the weapons he took. He selects the body and it appears on the table. He takes out a laser sword and ignites it. The blade HUMMING he slices off her foot. He picks up the foot and can see that it in fact does seal off any bleeding. The blade dies and goes back into his storage. He leaves the foot by the body. 'I could get used to this technology'.

'Zander, you dumbass. What about your oath you took. Do know harm, do no harm. Or did you forget'?

Zander ignores Kris. He walks over to the terminal and sees a nice duster in a brown leather. He slips it on over the uniform and weapons. It fits him perfectly. He doesn't know how to work this thing. He begins waving his hands in front of it like a crazy man. Jessee seeing this try's to stifle a laugh. She picks up the severed female foot and brings it to Zander. She placed the foot in his hand.

"You really aren't from here are you. The way you hold that laser sword and firearm proves it. You'll be dead within a day. Oh and if you want a true test on those swords next time don't cut off a dead woman's foot, kill a beast." She LAUGHS as she pats him on the shoulder. "Also for the holographic board just use it like this." She grabs his arms and manipulates them, teaching him how to use it. She let's go and let's him take a spin.

Zander gets the hang of it right away. Information is flying by his eyes. After about 20 minutes he has been looking at information on the history of the world. He has been shocked to find out that the beasts that she's talking about are rather intimidating to say the least. If he had to compare them to something on Earth, the closest would be dragons. "Dragons, you have fuckn dragons!" Dude I'm really going to love this place thinking to himself. After digging deeper in the system files he's able to find out information on all of the test subjects. Names start appearing: Katherine age 21 female, Tammy age 54 female, Joanna which is the body he took the foot from was a 31 year old female, Max age 34 male, Rodney age 19 male, Kyle age 22 male, Kevin age 55 male, and last of all Ruby the only Zondora in the system.

He brings up Ruby. Trouble maker, experienced firearms trainer, former ZM that went AWOL. Memory wipe recommend as she's a threat to national security. Head spikes are known to be laced with paralysis agent. Use extra caution when apprehending. Memory wipe was a failure so termination of subject is next step unless you're able to strip her naked and force her into a cyrogenic tube. She would be the best one to test a new procedure on to combat this race. Dr. Note, their body looks just like a human in every way. ERROR MESSAGE database missing information. Subject is assumed dead. Deactivated life support functions failed. Wake up cycle to begin in 26D. Wake up cycle complete. Subject still assumed dead. FILE END.

ENCRYPTED FILE: Level 4 encryption code. ACCESS GRANTED. Welcome Dr. Blacksoul. All tests are negative on subject Ruby. Even though her body is perfect for the tests nothing works. Recommended that you cut her open and splice her DNA with your DNA. There's a 75 percent chance that it will kill her. Would you like to continue? DNA splicing failed. Recommend that you put her body in the cryogenic tube until she's dead. Dr. Blacksoul note: damn thing is tougher to do with as I please. Got to figure out how they live for so long. Is it their blood? Is it based on their body? Need to wait till she dies to sample all her body parts. Can humans mate.... FILE CORRUPTION. FILE END.
