"Freeze Leiwa!" AJ demanded as he aimed two blasters at her.
Leiwa turned her attention to AJ. A sly smile played on her lips. "Alemc, what a pleasure to see you. Actually, we've been looking for you."
"Put down the dagger and don't try anything cute Leiwa, you have three blasters aimed at you and one wrong move could result in death." AJ replied coldly.
"Are you still sore about Amalo?" Leiwa taunted as she limply tossed the blade to the floor.
"If someone killed your spouse, wouldn't you be upset?" AJ challenged. "Wait, you wouldn't be. I forgot you were a cold heartless bitch!" He spat the words at her. The edge of his voice urged her to challenge him.
"For your information Alemc, her death was an accident, I didn't mean to kill her directly. I was aiming for you." She muttered the last part of her statement.
"Royals are on their way." Nick announced.
Kevin and Brian broke out of the trance. "We can take her with us, as a hostage, that way if they want her back, they can't do much to us." Brian suggested.
'You fancy her don't you.' Kevin thought at his cousin. Brian shot him a look before heading to Leiwa so he could bind her wrists. "Don't forget to gag her, she has a loud mouth." AJ added.
"Screw you!" Leiwa yelled as Brian binded her.
"I believe you've already done that." AJ sneered.
"I take it you two had a bad run-in in the past." Nick summarized.
"You can say that." AJ responded.
"Fu...." Leiwa began swearing but was cut off when Brian tied the gag around her mouth.
"Let's go." AJ directed. He looked at Nick, Aaron, Angel, Brian and Kevin. "Look I know y'all just go reunited, but now is not the time for a reunion party."
AJ led the group with Nick carrying Aaron following. Leiwa was flanked by Kevin and Brian. And Angel brought up the rear. The had moved about 20 feet before Royal guards stopped them. Brian held his blaster up to Leiwa's head, "If you value her life, let us pass."
The leader of the group stepped forward, "Bring him forward!" he commanded his troops. Soon, Howie, flanked by two guards came before the group. "If you value his life, let her go and surrender."
AJ paled. Aaron whimpered in pain as he lay in Nick's arms. Kevin stepped forward. "Very good men. I will no longer need your assistance in obtaining these rebels."
"But sir...." A guard started.
"Kevin can take it from here." Angel glared at the guard, she had a feeling of what Kevin was up to.
"Allow me to take these rebels down to the detention block, along with Howdo." Kevin directed. the guards drank in his every word.
"Very well sir, but what about Lewia?" The guard inquired.
Kevin walked to the woman and un-gaged her as he went to undo the binders, he whispered in her ear. "One move and you still die."
Leiwa found her voice, "I will accompany them. I'm sure Kevri will have no trouble with these rebels, however, I will personally assist Alemc down to the detention block. I have a... personal score to settle with him."
"Yes Madame." The guards replied.
"That means you're dismissed!" She ordered.
The guards left unsatisfied. Kevin dug his blaster into Leiwa's back, "Take us to our ship."
"FREEZE REBEL SCUM!" A guard yelled. The group looked up to see themselves surrounded by Royal guards.
"Any more bright ideas Kevri?" Nick spat the name as the others put down their weapons. "Because your ruse didn't work!"
"Ask AJ, he's the one with a plan." Kevin shook his head.
"No he's not." AJ responded doubtfully as he felt beaten for the first time in his life.
