Rebecca turned her head to bury it in Michael's chest to protect
her eyes. It had been too long since she had last see daylight.
The grip of her hand tightened.

Merc soldiers had failed.
Livinov received the report at the same time that his quarry was
making his escape with the very bait he had laid out. His fury
seemed endless as he ordered legion after legion of troops to
pursue the fleeing ex-emperor. He returned to the monitors,
expecting the Inuyashians or Namekians to arrive in force to
pick up the fugitives, but the scans remained devoid of any
activity, which led Livinov to wonder how the hell Michael I had
gotten to the planet to begin with, and with such a large force
at his command. As he listened to the latest report, which again
showed the utter failure of his men to detain and kill the
ex-emperor, he hit upon the realization that Michael I had to
have used a cloaked ship.
Moments later, he paid little attention to the moans of the
dying as he trudged over the corpses of his men in pursuit of
the group. Alone he exited the fortress, following the
footprints toward the escarpment.
---------------------------------------------------------
Michael I got the sense that they were being pursued even before
he heard the distant footfalls charging toward them. He gently
handed Rebecca I over to Iman'atar, instructing him to get her
to the First Aid Station aboard Centurion. Then, he turned back
to face his adversary. Charging back on the path they had come
down, he prepared to face his foe. What he was unprepared for
was the suddenness of Livinov's attack. Livinov raised his
phaser and fired. Michael I managed to dodge the beam, which
struck the ground and sent a cloud of dirt into the air. Not
waiting for Livinov to take aim again, Michael I tackled him,
knocking him to the ground with a hard thud, then began landing
blow after blow upon his enemy. Rage took over, fueled by the
image of the battered, mentally and physically beaten empress.
By the time Michael I got back to his feet, spittle dripping
from his clenched teeth and a light frothing of saliva at the
edges of his lips, Livinov was a bloody mess.
Michael I - "You........you were hired by people who would see
my nation in ruins.......you thought that by taking the empress
out, you'd take out the very lynchpin of the alliance.......you
don't realize that Inuyashia is the only thing keeping the
Barlat powers from taking full advantage of the civil war your
contractors started to completely destroy Trekylon."
Livinov - "M-m-mercy! I beg for mercy!"
Michael I - "You deserve no mercy.......and you will not get
it."
He pulled his blaster from the holster, and took aim. In the
distance, he could hear others, coming out in pursuit. He knew
time was running out.
Livinov - "Y-you are the o-o-one who will get n-n-n-no mercy,
Majesty"
Without another word, Michael I fired, blasting the skull off
Livinov's body.

Rebecca felt the warmth leave her and reached out for it as she
was quickly moved away from the battlefield.
Rebecca - "Michael...................where did you
go?..................Don't leave me."

Iman'atar heard the empress moan as he took her to the First Aid
Station.
Iman'atar - "He will be with you soon. He is facing the one who
injured you."
As he strapped her into the diagnostic bed, his two subordinates
charged down the ramp to find their master. Minutes later, they
came back, with Michael I following close behind.
Michael I - "Computer, activate thrusters. Begin ascent."
He went to the empress, lying on the diagnostic bed.
Michael I - "I'm here now......I made the man that did this to
you pay."

Rebecca saw her love and smiled weakly.
Rebecca - "I.....................I thought I would never see you
again....................Don't leave me again. Please"
She tried to reach out for him tears falling from her eyes.

He took her hand in his.
Michael I - "I will have to leave you in order to get us off
this planet. Plus I have unfinished business with those mercs."
He half-turned.
Michael I - "Computer, activate EMH program."
In front of him, a holographic image rippled into solidity. A
perfect copy of famous physician Doctor Lewis Zimmerman stood
straight and tall.
EMH - Please state the nature of the medical emergency.
Michael I - "I need you to apply First Aid to the empress. She's
been a captive."
EMH - I am afraid she will need a full medical facility to treat
her injuries.
Michael I - "Right now, I'm trying to get off this rock before a
bunch of mercs catch us and do who knows what to us. Do whatever
you have to, but, KEEP HER ALIVE!"
The EMH sighed a holographically reproduced sigh. Michael I
wondered how much of Zimmerman's actual personality had been
imprinted in the matrix of the hologram and decided that he must
not have been a very agreeable person even on the best of days.
He turned back to Rebecca I, looking into her eyes.
Michael I - "I will get you back home safely. Our family needs
you....and just as importantly, your people need you."
He released her hand and ran for the cockpit.

Rebecca nodded as Michael left. She was safe. Her hand felt warm
from his touch. Her family.............her
nation..................................could she lead them
again..................She wasn't so sure anymore.

Michael jumped into the pilot seat just in time to see the stars
through the viewport. He flipped a switch, revealing a small red
button. His finger hovered over the button as he activated the
monitor to reveal the fortress, which was steadily receding.
Michael I - "See you in hell."
He pressed the button.
On the monitor, a mushroom cloud bloomed from a blinding flash
as the fortress, and all the surviving mercs, were instantly
obliterated. He leaned back in his chair to savor the moment,
but a proximity alarm killed the moment. He turned to another
monitor, which showed three sleek attack craft coming from the
horizon close to the rising mushroom cloud.
Michael I - "****. Now I got three mercs chasing me with ships I
never seen before. This is gonna get interesting. Computer,
evasive maneuver Alpha-Three-Nine. Raise shields."
He grabbed the joystick to his left and charged the Borg torpedo
bay, phasers, and turboblasters.

Mugen's Rage 8 parsecs from the Inuyashian/Trekylon border
It had been 6 months since Empress Rebecca I had been kidnapped
and Colonel Yumiko Ichinose's crew had been diligently searching
every star system fanning out from their home planet along with
half of the military. So far there hadn't been any luck. Colonel
Yumiko came out of her ready room looking over the latest
reports.
Yumiko - "Anything?"
Her tactical officer Drake Ayers looked over his shoulder at
her. The tattoo around his eye displayed proudly. His sharp
voice rang out.
Drake - "Nothing. What if we don't find her or Michael I?"
The first officer Marino Saito stepped forward. Her normally
teasing tone much colder.
Marino - "We will. If we don't find her first, Michael I will.
All we have to do is be ready to take them home when we find
them. She's never given up so we can't let her down. Camus
wouldn't soon forgive us either."
Some of the crew shuddered. Camus was the last person ANYONE
wanted to **** off. Engineer Bernadette Picard looked over her
instrument panel.
Bernadette - "I've made the necessary updates to the ship so
she'll give us the speed we'll need when that comes. Unless we
meet hostiles, we're in perfect shape. I can't imagine anything
causing enough damage to impact my work though."
Here Doctor John McCrory laughed.
John - "Always so confident huh? I can see why. Our jobs are
simple till we encounter trouble. So far we've been in our
territory so that hasn't been much an issue."
Yumiko - "Yes but now we're in open territory. I want everyone
on their guard. Sleep in shifts and keep me informed at all
times. The second we get anything no matter how small, we
investigate. Keep the sensors wide and long."
The crew answered in the affirmative as they moved deeper into
open territory.

Michael I guided Centurion into a nearby gas-giant's ring system
in an attempt to shake off his pursuers. Banking the fighter
hard left, then hard right, he could see the light-green energy
discharges from the enemy fighters graze the shields and blast
chunks off the floating ice as he drove his fighter deeper into
the ice field.
Michael I - "I didn't count on this happening."
He swerved around one large ice chunk and dove into a tunnel
cutting across another, barely missing the icy walls inside.
Once glance at the rear monitors confirmed that the merc
fighters were still biting his tail, even if on occasion taking
hits from pieces of ice broken off the cavernous walls.
Michael I - "Okay, time for a new strategy. Warp-jump outside
the system. Computer, calculate trajectory to bring us within
the safest area to execute a 5-second warp jump."
As the computer beeped its compliance, the fighter shook from a
blast fired by one of the merc fighters. Michael I bit his
tongue in an attempt to keep from cursing, but a second blast
finally drove him to anger.
Michael I - "Frak you, bastards."
Computer [voice] - "Trajectory calculated. Setting course.
Warning, ice field will make a warp-jump at any length of time
hazardous. Recommend delay in execution until 20,000 km from the
ice field."
Michael I - "That's a big fat Hell no. Execute course now!"
He was suddenly pushed back deeper into his chair as the
computer took control of navigation and executed the command. On
the rear monitor, the merc fighters began to get smaller and
smaller as Centurion gained more and more ground. Michael I
gritted his teeth and clenched the armrests of his chair, hoping
that the other soldiers and his wife were securely strapped in.
Finally, after what to Michael I felt like hours, Centurion
executed the warp-jump. He silently counted down the five
seconds in his head as the stars streaked past in their rainbow
pattern familiar to travels at warp speed. At the five second
mark, the ship dropped back into sublight speed. The rear
monitor showed no indication of merc pursuit.
Michael I - "The day you can keep up with me.."
He was stopped as the rear monitor came alive with three streaks
which dropped out of warp. The mercs had copied his warp-jump
maneuver and were back on his tail again.
Michael I began scanning the nearby sectors in hopes of finding
help. He didn't have to look far.
Michael I - "There's an Inuyashian ship just a parsec and a half
from here. I don't know what they're doing this far out, but
thank God they are."
A blast shook the ship again, forcing Michael I to brace himself
in his seat.
Michael I - "When all else fails, call in the cavalry."
He activated the SOS.
