Chapter Fourteen

Varga cast the dead guard aside and raced for Joan as she toppled to the ground. He knew he would never make it in time, but to his astonishment, Polly reached her first. Polly managed to break Joan’s fall, but both females hit the ground. As soon as he reached them, he snatched Joan into his arms with a grateful word to Polly. He frantically checked Joan for injuries, swearing at the sight of her swollen, blistered arm, the print of Ahona’s hand clearly visible.

He growled, searching for the small male, but his body was only a short distance away, his head smashed beneath a large rock while Rummel scowled down at it.

“Killing was too good for you, you bastard.” Rummel spat on the body, then went to help Polly. She was still sitting on the ground where Joan had fallen, her eyes wide and vacant, but she let Rummel help her to her feet.

Varga agreed with the older male, but he was too focused on Joan to care. “How can I help her?” he asked desperately.

“Get her on the lift,” Issar said grimly as a shout came from the far end of the cavern. “We have to get out of here.”

He hesitated. As much as he hated the Zameetans… “What if they could help her?”

“You would condemn her to return to a life of slavery?” Issar pulled him to his feet as he spoke and urged him towards the lift.

Taliane and Saka were already on the platform, while Rummel and Polly were only a few steps away.

“At least she would be alive. And I would never stop until she was free again.” He let Issar push him along, but he kept turning to look at the guards racing towards them.

“You would if they killed you,” Issar said bluntly. “And you’re already injured.”

“It’s only a scratch,” he said automatically, even though he could feel fiery pain from the wound and knew that blood was dripping down his chest. It had been sheer bad luck that the guard had managed to hit one of his scars—one of the few areas he was vulnerable.

Issar pushed him on the platform, even as he tried to decide what to do. It was difficult to think when his whole being was focused on the small figure in his arms. But before he could change his mind, the platform began to rise.

“She needs help,” he said desperately.

Issar frowned. “Do you have a medical bay on your ship?”

“Just a small automated one.”

“That should still be enough to put her in stasis until you can get her to a real facility.”

He couldn’t respond, terrified that he would lose her. Her body already seemed cooler in his arms, her breathing shallower. He thought she whimpered but when he leaned closer, he saw it was George, crawling his way out of her coverall. The lizard chirped anxiously, then to his horror, began licking the wound.

“No!” he cried, about to knock the small creature away, but Rummel caught his arm.

“Wait a minute.
