She’d never felt fear like this. Not once. Definitely not for herself.
But right now, she was downright terrified. Que lay lifeless on the ground; she wasn’t even sure he was breathing. A bloody patch had formed on his back already, soaking his shirt.
Oh God. Oh God.
He’d been shot.
“And now, you are mine again.” The Szquich thumped its way towards her. She didn’t know how he’d found them so quickly, but no way was he taking her again.
“He was a fool not to realize I would be tracking you.”
Tracking her? What was he. . .oh shit, the collar. No doubt he had a tracking chip put in it in case any wayward slaves got away.
Well, he wasn’t taking her back and he wasn’t taking her from Que.
She slid back, away from him, trying to find her feet beneath her as her entire body shook. Shock. She was going into shock.
“Get away from me you overgrown lizard!” she screamed at him.
“You will soon learn to respect me. A few lashes of the whip will teach you to watch your tongue.”
“Fuck off, Warty-dick, you’re not getting anywhere near me.”
His tentacles hissed at her, snapping around him. All right, maybe pissing him off wasn’t her best idea. Especially with Que lying there either dead or dying.
“Yes, I will like introducing you to the lash,” he rumbled, stepping forward, his tentacles reached out towards her as she felt something cold touch her hand. She looked down to see a blaster lying on her hand. Emerald bounced up and down next to her. Where the hell had she gotten that from?
Then she didn’t have time to wonder as his tentacles grasped her ankle. She grabbed the blaster, releasing the safety. Then remembering Annabel’s teachings, she took a second to aim and fired. Her shot was true; she shot that bastard right in his head. His tentacles didn’t immediately release her, however, so to make double sure, she shot him again.
Then again.
His body tumbled over on its side with a loud thud. The tentacles eased off their hold, falling away. She lay there, breathing heavily, unable to believe she’d just done that.
She’d killed him.
Then Emerald made another noise and she looked over to find the small creature crouched next to Que.
“Que!” On hands and knees, she made her way over to where he lay lifeless on the ground. He was on his stomach and the bloody patch on his shirt was growing. “Oh God. Oh God. I don’t know anything about blaster wounds. I don’t know how to deal with anything more than a paper cut!” she cried out, panicking.
“Please be alive. Please be alive. Please be alive.” Tears flooded down her cheeks, sob after sob working its way through her body. “Please. Please. I didn’t come to that fucking revelation about trusting you just to damn well lose you. How am I supposed to trust again, huh?” She searched for a pulse as she spoke. “If you die, you’ll leave me with just another fear. Now
