Saxon Andrew - Greyson's revenge

Grang saw Madeline in his thoughts and felt his agony return. He saw Madeline smile, “It’s time to live again.”

Grang ran out the door and ran up to the huge Magrum Female and looked down on her, “Why me? What do you see in me that you want!?!”

She turned and smiled, “I have very high standards. I’ve been told that you’re the only one that could possibly handle someone like me. I want a Warrior for my mate and you are all I heard you were. The Zord confirmed it. However, I refuse to be here with you unless you can open your heart. Can you do that?”

“What if I’m not what you think?”

She stepped back and slowly looked him over from head to foot as she slowly walked around him, “Ohhhh, I think you’ll do.”

Grang smiled, “What’s your name.”

“Geena.”

“I promise not to hurt you.”

She smiled coyly, “I’d like to see you try.”

Grang laughed for the first time in years, “Please stay. I do want to see if we can make a go of it.”

Geena smiled, “I thought you’d never ask.”

Grang swept her off her feet and carried her back to his home.

Scotty and Julie peeked around the small house and Julie jumped into Scotty’s arms. “Oh Scotty, how did you make this happen?”

The Planet Leader on Burke contacted me about a rather hard to handle Magrum Female and wondered if I had a place for her in our military. I contacted her father and he confirmed that she is a rather strong willed Daughter. I told her Father about Grang and asked him to mention to her that there was only one Magrum in this universe that could handle her and she had better hope she didn’t run in to him. He’d teach her a thing or two. She took it as a challenge and decided to find out all she could about Grang. Vring just happened to be around when she started her search.”

“Just happened to be around?”

Scotty smiled and looked up at the sky, “Ohhh, it was entirely an accident. Her father told her to ask the Zord about the Magrum on Bristone that could teach her a thing or two. She couldn’t resist. Vring showed her the ongoing duals between Grang and the Northern Cats and she was impressed. I think his pet Torg sealed the deal.”

“She is a rather strong personality.”

“And Grang isn’t?”

She punched him in the ribs laughing, “We’ll see.”

Scotty picked her up and tickled her, “I guess we will.”

Julie laughed uncontrollably and said, “Stop, please stop.”

“I will if you behave.”

“I will, I will.”

Seventeen year old Jenna Talben watched her display as the giant black ship moved toward another planet to conquer. “Gilene, are we going to intervene?”

“Jenna, they have learned how to handle our attacks. It was easy at first but now they fire all their beams as soon as we hit their force field destroying the hornets. If we continue to penetrate them, they’ll reach a level that our full Zeta Beam would not penetrate.”

Jenna thought a moment, “Gilene, do you have the information from the first probe that Alex used to spy on them.”

“Yes, why?”

“Show me the information in a download.” Jenna put on the head band and Gilene downloaded the information. “So the probe was able to get to the ship when it lowered its force field.”

“It appears so.”

“Why did they lower it?”

“To receive a communication.”

“Do you have the frequency of that communication?”

“Just a moment.” Jenna waited and pulled up the structure of the huge ship on her display. “Yes, I do.”

“Let’s try something new. Move up next to the force field and hit it with that frequency. If they drop their force field, hit them with your main beam just below the bottom of the main control room. That’s where their reactors are located”

Gilene thought about it, “It might work. Are you ready?”

“Just keep the teleport board hot.”

“You don’t have to ask. Here we go.”

Gilene moved up next to the force field in stealth mode and sent the frequency intermittently. She paused and sent it again. The force field came down and Gilene hit the giant black ship with her main beam. The giant ship exploded so fast that Gilene was barely able to teleport away from the blast before it struck them.

“My, my but that was dramatic. I can also assume from the immediate explosion that they were unable to send a message out.”

Gilene smiled, “You are a genius. Let’s tell the others.”

“Tell them to only use it on ships that are alone and attacking a planet. We don’t want them to think we’ve used a more powerful beam.”

“Good idea. We still need them to keep their attention on this universe.”

“This event should get their attention.”

Gilene teleported away. Ten black battleships appeared ten hours later when the destroyed ship failed to report its progress. A message went out to the Fleet Master and he directed his ship to the scene of the attack. As he viewed the destruction he began to feel something alien, fear.

Three weeks later Varner and James were moving in on a giant black ship that was moving in toward a civilized planet. The giant ship was destroying the ships coming from the planet to defend it and was moving inexorably on the defenders. Varner moved slowly toward the ship. “I don’t believe they will lower the force field until that fleet is eliminated.”

“You’re probably right. I hate to see those ships destroyed but we don’t have much choice.”

Suddenly five giant black ships appeared in the system. James looked at his display and said, “Why are they here? They don’t need that firepower to defeat that fleet.”

Varner said, “I don’t like this.”

All six ships suddenly opened fire on Varner with their main beams. James yelled, “Get us out of here! They can see us.”

Varner sent a message warning the other Searchers that their Stealth mode no longer worked when he saw that the beams had knocked down the screen and overloaded the collection panels. The teleport system was bypassed to expel the additional energy flooding the system. James saw the needles on his board race across the dial and then Varner exploded into fragments that were disintegrated by the hellish beams.

The Ship Master looked at the site of the explosion and regretted that nothing remained to examine. They were still no closer to finding out where these ships were coming from. Well now they could find them and destroy them. He smiled anticipating his next kill.

Greyson and Timmy received the message that was suddenly cut off. Timmy was silent and Greyson said, “Varner is gone and they just killed Kelly as well. He’s not responding to my calls.”

“I’m so sorry Greyson.”

“They died like we all hope to go; fighting the good fight. I’m going to miss them greatly.”

Timmy took a deep breath and let it out slowly, “They can see us in stealth mode, Greyson. That changes things.”

“Yes, but I suspect it’s not as bad as you think.”

“I’m not sure I understand.”

“If you thought they couldn’t see you, would you teleport away if several of their ships showed up?”

“No, probably not; I’d hang around to see what was going on.”

“Which I’m sure Varner and Kelly did when they were killed; we can still teleport out before they can emerge into normal space.”

“What are you thinking about doing?”

“We have some Captor balls in our inventory and I want to try something.”

Timmy looked at his panel, “We have three.”

“Well, I can see where the Invader ships are going to emerge into normal space. What if I teleport those balls to the location of their arrival set to detonate in three seconds. If the balls are close to the center of their emergence, they should be inside their force fields.”
