    “Take off in rapid
mode,” he commanded as he input a sequence onto the nearby keypad.

 
    “Request granted,” the
ship replied.

 
    Serik felt the familiar
pull as the ship hurled them out of Redex’s atmosphere into the galaxy above.

 
    He took a sigh of
relief. He looked at the viewscreen to the other ship that he guessed was
filled with the others he had seen. He guessed that they were also soldiers who
had made it out. He watched them on the viewscreen as they took off from
Redex’s atmosphere, but they were going in another direction. They were headed
towards another place, a place he was unsure of.

 
    “I guess it’s not the
wrong direction any planet is better than this shithole,” he murmured to
himself.

 
    Serik unstrapped
himself and looked down at the small unconscious female. He unstrapped her from
the helm of the shuttle and took her back into his arms. He cautiously brought
her to the spare bedroom and set her down on the bed.

 
    He had studied humans
briefly in secondary school. He wished he would have paid more attention
instead of looking at the glossy photos of the beautiful human females. He
recalled they were much smaller species than his but they shared most of the
same genetic makeup as Baat. He guessed the medicine he had would work on her.

 
    I’m no fucking healer but Hell, here goes nothing.

 
    Serik ripped off the
top part of her uniform. He started an IV and checked her pulse. It was slow
but he could have sworn that humans had a slower heart rate naturally than that
of a Baat.

 
    He breathed in a heavy
sigh of relief when he realized she was stable.

 
    Suddenly, it hit him.

 
    Her scent.

 
    It was a fragrant,
playful aroma. It was something he had never experienced before and it was
difficult to pinpoint what her scent was composed of. The best he could
describe it was that she smelled like warmth, happiness, sunshine.

 
    He brushed a long
auburn lock of hair behind her ear. He had never seen such a color of hair
before.

 
    He had seen some females
with pink hair and a few varying shades of deep pink from Kapra but no, not like this, her hair was vibrant and beautiful. It wasn’t pink, no
it was close to red but it wasn’t red. Plus the Kapratians were a cold bunch of people. Most all of the Kapratians he had ever met were stuck up and rude. They had a low tolerance for anything
different, especially him.

 
    He studied her delicate
features. He had never seen a more beautiful female in all the planets he had
visited.

 
    He inhaled deeply
taking her scent into his nose. It was sweet and slightly intoxicating.  

 
    He looked over her
uniform.

 
    Surely, she is not a soldier. She is far too tiny
and delicate to do any good. What sort of planet let’s their females fight
their battles?

 
    He looked over her
features again.

 
    I hope you make it baby, let’s see if I can fix you
up.

 
    He sighed when he
realized she would probably be terrified of him when she awoke, that is if she
awoke.

 
    I’m one ugly mother fucker and she’ll probably
scream when she seems me , he thought to
himself remembering the incident with the exotic dancing girl on Jax .

 
    What female wouldn’t be upset when she sees me?  

 
    Most females got away
from them as soon as they could. His looks were a sign of evil in all of the universe it seemed. It had caused him a rather
lonely and hermit-like existence on his ship. He thought back to his deep green
scars a few which were on his face from a fight with goldoarg monsters in Zein .

 
    Humans…

 
    Humans, his
mind raced as he tried to think of how their bodies worked.

 
    They’re smart but not as technologically advanced. They
didn’t do as much space travel as us. They are similar to us except their
blood.

 
    She’ll be OK. They are a durable species.

 
    He didn’t even know the
little female but he desperately wanted her to live.
