chapter 61

Years flies by and Dodat grows up into adult Kodazaki.

Dodat is sitting against the wall eagerly awaiting her life bringer's return when she hears the door rattles as it always did when they return home.

Dodat yells," Life bringers, you are back! I am so glad!"

There was no answer and the door stops rattling.

Dodat thinks," The life bringers must be joking with me! They will be back in a little bit."

#

On the side of the door was a Kodazaki that alien to to the living complex. The strange Kodazaki walks away from the entrance of Dodat and her life bringers. The stranger walks away into a nearby alley and enters the shadows.

The stranger speaks," There is a Kodazaki that is not registered to be living in unit 365. The two

Kodazakis that live there are off to work."

Three figures appear out the shadows in a hurry.

One of the figures spoke," We must have a traitor in our mist!"

Another figure spoke,"We must kill them! No one is to disobey the Leader and commander Lowlance! All traitors must be killed!"

The remaining figure speaks,"We need to wait until the other two traitors return!"

#

Dackle and Akra are returning home by foot when they near their home and they open the door. To their horror, Dodat spilled out into the street when they opened the door and they had shove Dodat back in the living unit. Akra and Dackle rushed into the housing unit. Once inside they begin to chew out their offspring.

Dackle yells," What were you thinking, Dodat?"

Dodat remained silent while she was scolded by her life bringers.

Akra speaks,"We told you many times that the Leader sends his bounty hunter's looking for us because he thinks that we are traitors! Do you want to die!"

#

While outside, the figures come out of the shadows and walk towards the unit of Dodat.

One of the figures speaks," Us bounty hunters finally have some work after all these months of

nothing!"

The other bounty raise their fists in excitement.

After Dackle and Akra were done correcting their daughter, they begin to calm down. The life bringers were afraid that they would lose Dodat forever.

Akra speaks," You are precious and we both love you dearly Dodat."

Dodat speaks," What is love? I want to know what it is."

Before Dodat's Life bringers could respond to Dodat, someone comes charging through the metal door. Shards of the metal door goes flying everywhere and it was disorienting to the family.

The bounty hunters were under the control of the ruthless commander Lowlance. They searched endless for any potential traitors and they had gotten their wish here today.

The four body hunters all scream out,"Die Traitor scum, die!"

Akra throws Dodat in the corner so that their offspring could be shielded from the attackers. Dackle and Akra pull out their weapons and form a barrier between the attackers and Dodat. The life bringers would battle to the death to protect their offspring.

Dodat's short life flashes before her very eyes.

She remembers the time where she escape from their dwelling all those few times that she had escaped.

#

Dodat was very young when she had escaped from her dwelling to explore the world around

her. It was normal for an offspring to be natural curious of their world around him. The Kozdazaki offspring were robbed of this experience and strapped into a learning tube. Dodat's life bringers allowed her to walk all around the entire dwelling. But it was quickly explored since the room was barely ten foot by fifteen foot. Offspring often learned by exploring their surroundings but the Kozdazaki did not allow their offspring to do so. Dodat was one of the few exceptions, within the Kozdazaki culture.

Dodat was a very bright offspring and had a great potential to be a commander. But it was a bitter sweet detail for the life bringers, since they knew that their daughter could eventually be higher class that Akra or Dackle could ever be. But they knew that could never ever be, because she could never be allowed to be seen in the outside world.

Dodat would be seen as nothing but a traitor and nothing more from others with their culture.

Dackle and Akra did not wanted their offspring to be kept in a small room but they knew that had no other choice but to do so. She could not allow herself to being caught.

One day, Dodat had decided to escape from their home and begins to walk for what she felt to be miles. She had exited her home before and she both scared and excited at the same time.

#

Dodat was lucky and everybody in the area was at work.

Dodat saw two people coming towards her and they begin to yell at the offspring. Dodat had grown afraid about the strangers yelling at her, so she had ran away as fast as she could.

#

Dodat runs all the way back dwelling and tries to hide with the dwelling. She had one problem though, since there was no were to hide within the small home. Two figures come running into the house and Dodat curls into the fetal position. Dodat was yelling. The voicing are screaming at her a

mile a minute.

A female voice spoke,"What were you thinking? You could have been killed!"

A male voice spoke," Dodat, we are your life bringers and we do not want to lose you! Are you malfunctioning?"

Dodat finally realizes who is talking to her and she looks up at two Kozdazakis.

It was Dodat's life bringers, Dackle and Akra.

They grabbed Dodat up quickly into her arms.

Akra speaks,"I know that you want to explore, but you can not do so. This world is evil and they hate people like us. They will kill you if you try to escape from this dwelling! Please do not that again!"

Dackle spoke," I am sorry that have to live this way. If we had known this we would have not given you this trouble."

Dodat speaks,"I am so sorry, life bringers! I just wanted to explore but I will never do it again!"

The three member family are in a firm embrace.
