Chapter Sixteen

There were three aliens standing at the other end of the corridor. They hadn’t turned around, yet. Alexei put a hand on her arm and placed a finger before his mouth. He motioned her to stay still as he crept silently up the hall.

They turned to see him. Instead of raising an alarm they grinned and stalked towards him.

Words came out of their mouth she didn’t understand but were translated by the corridor. It must do that to allow all the different aliens to live and work together. It did amaze her that it translated into Earth languages also.

“So it was a Created that infiltrated our ship and not a flock of birds. We will be respected after we bring him in, we’ll keep the human for ourselves. Come here pretty human.”

Amber rolled her eyes and returned to watching Alexei. She kept the aliens in the corner of her sight not wanting one of them to approach her unawares.

“Let’s kill him so we can have some fun.”

The first changed form into a huge snake creature. His tail had sharp black barbs on it and his skin was a reddish metallic color. If he wasn’t a snake out to eat them she might have found him fascinating. The other two kept their human appearance.

“You really freak me out when you change to your natural form,” the one with more of a gold hair color said.

The snake hissed the translator version “all the better to eat him.”

The two stayed back and the snake struck out with its tail at Alexei who jumped to avoid it. The spike at the end of it looked deadly.

“Come Created, don’t fight and I will take it easy on you,” the snake hissed.

“I should tell you I hate chatty aliens,” Alexei changed forms.

“Created taste good in their natural form.”

“I believe you would consider yourself lucky if you were able to even lay a tongue on a Created, but I’m hybrid and I believe I’m poison to you as I’m part human. Hiss on that.”

The snake deflated some, “You’re lying.”

“There’s only one way to find out.”

Alexei dove at the snake’s soft underbelly avoiding the tail that lashed around trying to rip him to shreds. The snake’s deadly fangs came close enough to take a bite making him release the hold of his claws and roll off. The snake was bleeding from where Alexei clawed into him.

“I’ll kill you for this.”

“Would you mind telling me what the party is for before you try to kill me?” Alexei’s voice was pleasant belying the fact that he was trapped between the snake and the wall.

The snake hissed, his tail came up catching Alexei as he jumped across his upper body. One of the black barbs tore through him eliciting a cry of pain as Alexei jumped on its back. Using his claws, he tore through the tough scales doing his best to avoid the barbs that were tearing into him. The snake bit into his arm ingesting his blood. The body of the snake began to convulse.
