chapter 2. the doctor and the warrior

I slowly come to awareness as the shot wears off I could tell I was tied down to the table, completely naked, I could also hear them talking about me.

`I can see why the king sent us all this way, this females has the perfect balance of intelligence and strength, look how the tiny thing made a absolute fool out of your team' one of my captores teases the other.

`honestly, she is 45kgs and 5ft. how where we to know she would be so agressive and seriously injure 3 of us. honestly it was pretty scary especially how she used the car door' the other retorted sounding sulky, the slight tremble in his voice gave me a rush of confidence.

`I did see the footage of your team trying to abduct her, I was actually impressed with her response to the situation she didn't just freeze and cry like most humans.' the other retorted.

`hey, what the hell did you give me?' I interrupt them and sit up as far as my restraints will allow. my sudden movement and question makes the both jump a foot in the air, and their tails to flick towards me. In the drug haze they look just like dragon people with wings their skin was different colours the doctor had skin the color of fresh blood and the warrior I fought with was silver now I see him in white light.

`what did you shoot me up with?' I ask again taking advantage of there shock.

`It's just a bit of morphine' the alien in the white coat replied.

`well, you better go get a bucket you've got 2 minutes before I start vomiting' just as I said that the entire room begins to spin not like super quick but like you're on a constantly spinning turntable. just slow enough I can see the alien in the white coat run for a tub and the other release both of the restraints on my wrists. the doctor thrusts a white bowl into my hands and that was all I saw for the next 30 minutes.

I lay on the table completely covered in sweat the back if my throat was completely raw.

`here would you like some water?' the doctor offers me kindly.

`yes please'

I take a long slow drink contemplating my next move. obviously we were traveling I could feel the movement of the ship.

`how long have I been out?' I ask wearily

`about 2 hours' the red dragon man replied.

`are you taking me to Callisto?' I ask between sips.

`yes our king he sent us to get you'

`why me?'

`from what we where told he met you while he was undercover doing reconnaissance on your planet and you caught his eye, but at the time you met you where married and declined any kind of relationship with him. Which made him respect you all the more. He sent us now because he knows what happened to him and he didn't want to miss his opportunity to try to have a relationship with you' the silver warrior piped up.

`Ok, how are you're warriors I kinda did a number on them'

`already healed, but you have given them all a huge fright'

I giggle at his comment. `did your king see it?'

`we sent him the footage and he laughed at us too' the warrior looked at his feet `he also commented that you're intelligence in battle is to be respected and ask me to tell you that he understands why you would be on the defensive in such an aggressive display, and that there is to not be any repercussions for what happened during your abduction'

`i would hope not I have every right to defend my beautiful self' I retort sassily. `i would also appreciate some clothing to cover my self'

they both look at me with horrified realization.

`so sorry Violet' they both change colours completely the doctor turning bronze and the warrior turned a soft glowing green.

`huh, what just happened you changed colour?' I ask mouth agape.

`our colours are completely different for every being in our species but they change with emotions.'

they release all of my restraints and quickly leave the room. the warrior returned with a small bundle of beautifully embroidered fabric.

`the king thought that you might fight us... so he sent these along for you, he guessed your size as best he could' he spoke quickly and kept his eyes on the ground.

I take the bundle from his hands surprised by how heavy it is.

`i will wait for you outside the door' he took his leave without even looking up at the door.

now that I was alone I looked around the large white room and take note of all the different types of machines and drugs I can see. this knowledge could be useful in a pinch. I place the bundle on the bed and begin to get ready to face whatever is to come on the other side of that door.
