Run

Pycca ran through the ship just in front of Benson, guided by Kya’s directions. Since most of the doors were closed to prevent anyone loyal to the council from attacking the bridge and trying to remove August from command, Pycca and Benson had no option but to run.

Pycca and Benson were taking the long route to the detention bay. There were more officers loyal to the council than Pycca had expected. Almost at every other door and hallway, Pycca and Benson had to turn to avoid conflict.

Why are there so many officers loyal to the council? Pycca wondered. What is the council promising them? I am sure they know that the council is only acting in its own best interest and no one else’s. Do these loyalists not have family on Earth? Why are they so willing to destroy it, or put people in danger? This is such bullshit.

To make matters worse, Pycca was beginning to feel that Sodenia was engaged in heavy battle with the enemy ships. Clues like reverberations and sudden acceleration and deceleration made themselves felt as she ran.

She knew that they were not in too much trouble, as Sodenia’s movements were still mild in comparison to what she was capable of.

She slowed just enough to open a screen on her wristband so she could check the status of the gravity and anti-gravity modules. They looked unmoved, still functioning at a hundred percent.

The gravity modules on Sodenia were the reason they could all walk, stand, sit, and feel the acceleration and deceleration in space. The concept was simple enough to explain, but to completely understand it took some thinking. The gravity modules emitted routing gravity waves around themselves in a continuous loop. As the ship moved through space, the loops compressed into the modules, making the gravity on board feel heavier in whichever direction the ship moved.

“Kya, why is the door ahead of us not open?” Pycca asked as soon as she saw the door and was unable to see another route.

“There are two council-loyal guards trying to open the door from the other side,” Kya said. “There is little information about them on file, therefore I cannot predict the outcome of the encounter. They are armed with stun batons.”

Pycca looked over to Benson.

“I’m with you, ma’am,” Benson said. “I have family back on Earth, and I’ve always hated the council.”

“I needed to hear that,” Pycca said. “Just follow my lead.”

Benson tilted his head down once in agreement.

“Kya, open the door,” Pycca said. “And get ready to open the next one as soon as we get near it.”

“Hey, it worked!” one of the officers behind the door said.

“You see, you dumbass, I told you it would work,” a different officer said.

“What the hell are you guys doing going this way?” Pycca said. “You are far from going the correct way.”

“Officer on deck,” one of the loyalist officers yelled.

Both of the officers stood up straighter and saluted.

“At ease,” Pycca said. “Correct your path right away; turn left into the corridor you just passed.
