Saxon Andrew - Greyson's revenge

Carter smiled, “Alllll right!”

Jenna felt her heart beat faster; the Realm’s Armor. Was she ready for that much power?

Carter looked at her and said, “You’ll be even more beautiful in Armor. You’ll look good in red.”

Jenna didn’t know what to say.

The stars shined brightly overhead waiting for the power sitting at the fire to come to life. There wasn’t much time remaining.

Telah sat outside the fire and worried about her first hatched son. She had followed him to the Human Community and secretly watched him leave on Jessica. She loved Kreej so much. She stayed and listened to White Hair’s Son and decided that he was worth her first hatchling. She now had more than fifty babies that were becoming adults but that first one held a special place in her heart. She would always remember the terrible Night of the Torg and the joy of her first children. Kreej was the first one she heard that night crying for her as she circled high overhead. Her son was a warrior and she knew he would someday lead the Flocks. Even the Elders listened to his advice. She prayed that the Son of White Hair would protect him. She knew that Kreej would protect White Hair’s Son even if it meant losing his life in the effort. This new Searcher had a remarkable mind that was unique. She had never encountered anyone with the depth of clarity she saw in his thoughts. The three of them were going to make history. She lifted silently and flew home to Zreeg. She felt her heart grow. She loved her mate so much. She picked up speed to hurry home and show him.

Alex looked at the two Zord and said, “How does it feel?”

Kreej spread his wings and looked at the bright red coating, “It feels like my own hide. This head covering is remarkable. How do I learn how to use my armor?”

“First you need to learn how to take it off. See the silhouette of a Zord in the lower right hand corner of your helmet?”

“Yes.”

“Look directly at it and think, ‘Armor off.’”

Kreej and Neelah saw their armor disappear. “How do we bring it back?”

“That’s the easy part. Clinch both of your claws and think, “Initiate Armor.’”

Kreej and Neelah both turned their armor on and immediately off. “That is simple, Alex.”

“You don’t really need a headband to begin the download but it will work faster if you do. Both of you need to lie down, place the bands around your heads, and relax. The download will make the neural connections and teach you all of its functions. It’s going to take twelve hours so make sure you’re comfortable before you start this process.”

Kreej looked at Neelah, “Are you ready?”

“I’ve been ready for ten years. I’m really curious about this system.”

Alex watched the two Zord start their download and wondered how they knew the Armor was ready. It had been completed just two days earlier. He waited for Robby to arrive and determined that he would hold that question until then. He wished Grace was still at the Facility. He missed her wisdom. This armor was light years ahead of the Realm’s Armor. Even the beam was stronger than a Zeta and the surface could be made reflective. With the two hundred foot wing span of a Zord, a planet could be ravaged. He was extremely nervous about releasing this power into his universe. If the Zord ever decided to take control there would be nothing that could stop them. Maybe I’m just being paranoid. Still, you can never be too careful. He hoped he would never have to activate the circuit that would destroy all the Armor and those who wore it. He vowed to never allow another evil Duke to take control.

The Ten Ruling Masters viewed the updates from the problem universe. They discussed the next steps to eliminate the civilization that was sending ships to slow their conquest and where to start the search. “We have nothing in our records that resemble those ships.”

The youngest Master stared at his display and said, “I remember that there was once a civilization in one of the universes we examined that had very strong beams.”

“I remember that civilization. However, we decided to wait until it destroyed itself before we invaded. It appears that the war happened and most of the ships with those beams were destroyed.”

Zyl looked at the Fourth Master and didn’t say anything. That universe was still at war and was not yet ready for their attention. Certainly nothing like those ships was seen there. That universe would have to be low on the search list. Then he heard something that changed his mind. The Second Master said, “According to my records, that universe is missing two galaxies.”

Zyl looked up, “What?”

“Our scans could be in error but there are two less than the first time we visited.”

“Do you know which ones are missing?”

The Second looked and said, “No. With billion’s of galaxies, it would be impossible to make that determination. I only now noticed the total number does not agree with our original survey. There is a possibility that two could have been missed due to being behind a much larger galaxy.”

“I thought we took several views from different angles.”

“We do, but then two others could have been moved behind.”

“Has this ever happened before?”

The nine Master’s consulted their displays, “It doesn’t appear to have ever happened before.”

Zyl said, “They may be hiding from our scans. That is where we will go next. Notify the Fleet Master.”

Suddenly Zyl’s panel illuminated with a bright blue light. All ten Masters felt instant fear. Zyl looked at them and closed his eyes briefly. He opened them and pushed the button, “How may I serve you?”

The Ten listened and hoped they would survive the contact.

Robby stood in the landing bay at the Defense Facility and looked at the group glowing in their new armor. The two Zord were sitting and even in that pose they were enormous. Scotty keyed his communicator, “Alex, is the armory ready?”

“Yes it is. You may teleport one at a time and select your stores.”

“Thanks, Dani will go first.”

Dani teleported away. Robby said, “Load up on as many armaments as you can. We won’t be back soon, so make good use of the inventory.”

Kreej commed, “Alex, is there a limit to what we can take?”

“I don’t have an infinite supply of ordinance. Just keep in mind that there will be more than six thousand Flyers that will need to be supplied.”

“What are you saying?”

“You don’t need to take a billion hornets. You’ll never use that many. A hundred thousand would be a rational number.”

“What if I want double that number?”

“Then take them. What makes you think you’ll need that many?”

“We may decide to remove the Invaders from planets they’ve conquered.”

“Then come back for more. That probably won’t happen in the near future and remember we’re going to have to supply all of the ships we’re building as well.”

“What about Captor Balls?”

“That’s easy. Now that you’re covered with a red force field, you can go to their original home and pick up as many as you want. My records indicate that there are still several million at their old hive.”

Robby smiled, “Don’t be greedy Kreej.”

Kreej said, “I was talking about Neelah.”

“No, you weren’t.”

“Yes I was.”

Neelah shoved Kreej with one of her wings, “I’ll use good judgment, Alex.”

Robby shook his head, “The Captor Balls are too big to take into our armor. Load up on those if you must, Kreej; you can have my share.”

“Robby, our ships will need them more than us. It’s the main tool that has kept the invaders away from our ships.”

Robby looked at Carter, “Ok, we’ll only take a hundred per Zord. Load another hundred on Pyle and Gilene.”
