Liam saw the bright light of the interdimentional world disappear around him, remplaced by Da'an's office. It was no more Da'an's office he remembered. Shortly another companion would be sent from the mother planet. He could be serve no one other than Da'an, he knew it.

He banished all those dark thoughts from his mind. He had so new powers to explore. It was so different. He was still human. He could sense the human DNA inside of him. He knew he could stop his vital fonction if he wanted to. The Kimeras had such fantastic power. As he walked trough the room toward Da'an's chamber, he felt the purple Taelon construction sigh around him. He had never been able to hear them before. He just felt a presence, something, but he knew not it was this.

The construction was in fact a Taelon creature. It was alive, more like a human animal than a plant. When a Taelon came to an Embassy they...impregnated it with their minds. The structure and the Taelon who lived in it were almost always in mental communication. The creature sighed because of her lost, hte lost of Da'an.

Liam stoped and placed his hands on a wall. He felt the structure mind vividly in his. It was a very basic intelligence. The thought were even not words just feelings. He sent them comfort, hoping that they would survive without Da'an.

¤

Liam climbed to Da'an's private quarters. The Embassy was dark. He did not know if, when the new companion would arrive, the Building would change. The pale purple had changed to a dark indigo blue. He met several volunteers on his way. None of them seemed to felt the sadness which, for Liam, emanated from everywhere, from the whole creature.

The volunteers knew he was not like Sandoval, always just-the-job and emotionless. He received a few smile and compassion looks. They did not seemed to see the change in him. He wore his human appearance but his green eyes were glowing in his face. Da'an's office was dark, here the walls were even darker, like in grief.

He entered, slowing his pace as he feared to trouble the dead silence in here.

He stoped before the chair. He almost did the Taelon salute. He climbed on the chair and touched it, felling again the creature in his mind. He jumped down.

A single tear was rolling down his cheek. He blushed...green and wiped the tears away.

He make his way toward a part of the wall he knew for the door of Da'an's chamber, but he stoped when he heard Sandoval's step behind him.

"Major, what are you doing here?" the man asked in his usual icy tone.

"The last time I checked Sandoval, I worked here," he replied sarcastically.

Sandoval stroked the abdomen of his skrill, who became a bright blue at the touch, apparently lost in thoughts. But Liam knew he was not, absolutly not. Poor creature, he though, sharing body with Sandoval.

He no longer considered Sandoval as his father. Biologically maybe, but not other thing than that. The only parent he ever had, was Beckett and Da'an. Sandoval was no longer implanted and he still did everything Zo'or told him to do, even kill innocents persons in cold blood, for a yes or a no. He had bio-enginered Lili, as an experiment rat, not as a human. Liam had thought often that the cvi could make a normal human go crazy. It was the only explanation he could thought of for explaining his father actions.

"So," said Sandoval still caressing his glowing skrill, "you have reached another step of your Kimeran evolution, I think."

"I don't know what you speak of Sandoval," said Liam. He could not hide the slight amazed look which passed in his greens eyes.

"You should have followed the advice Zo'or gave you, Major. You don't control your appearance perfectly..." Without warning he raised his skrill and fired at Liam.

Liam saw it coming but did not had time to avoid it. The blast was not enough hard to hurt him or even make him move. But it was not waht Sandoval wanted to see. The energy blast caused him to lost his human appearance for several seconds.

It was enough for that Sandoval saw his gray-green energy body. He understood too late for brace himself from the impact. He regained his human facade and an angry look appeared in his eyes. Zo'or, he thought angrily. Zo'or told him. He seemed to good for be true.

"How can you know?" asked Liam, not trying to hide his eunoia accent anymore.

"I have my informations, as you have yours Kincaid. Since many years, I don't have my implant working anymore. I did not trust the Taelons. I have..." he smiled badly "well...covered my back. I spy Zo'or from long ago. You know Major, despite our technology and all, some old methods are still working, like listening behind the door." His smile grew on his face. Liam could see his white teeth in the shadows.

"You'll kill me," Liam stated calmly.

"Yes," answered Sandoval simply, raising slowly his skrill glowing a furious pink-blue now.

"I suppose you've already heard that I'm your son," objected Liam.

"Yes. And don't worry I'll kill you even if you're related to me in anyway, Kincaid." Sandoval said in a cold voice.

"You're crazy." Liam realized it plainly now. Da'an had told him once that the cvi effects were still unknown. Sandoval had been the first human to be implanted, the longer to survive.

"Maybe...or maybe I'm just the more lucid here." Sandoval tone of voice was hard. This man was no more to be considered like a member of the human race. He had defended him often against Jonathan, against Lili, against Augur, against Renée...And now, he discovered they were all right about him. His mind had been destroyed by the cvi. Or altered at least.

At the moment Sandoval was going to fire a deadly skrill blast, a amazing thing happened.

Something like octopus tentacles sprang out around Sandoval, who was, unfortunatly, against the blue wall. They seemed animated by a proper life. It seemed more like living water than energy tentacles. They pinned Sandoval against the wall, like iron arms. One tentacle devided in smaller arms and unlaced, like unlacing a boot, his skrill from his right arm. The alien creature glowed a little, before being absorbed in the wall.

Sandoval's skrill was now part of the Embassy creature. The tentacles retracted, releasing the human body, who slid without noise on the floor. His father was uncounscious, the arm in blood, because of the skrill lost.

The tentacles grew a little longer for stroke Liam's cheek tenderly, like a sweet, loving hand. The Kimera felt clearly the creature last thoughts in his mind. She was angry, very angry against the man.

Liam raised his palm up. The creature, in return, mirrored the form of a human hand and joined palms with him. He initiated a sharing, opening his mind to the poor, tortured, creature. She was more intelligent he had thought at first. She shared with him, only emotions for a while, then understood that he was looking for something in particular. She shared a last spasm of hate with him and sent a succession of image in his mind.

¤

Have you seen the movie Abyss? Yes I know it's a relatively old movie but it's good!!! Well if you have, you remember the water tentacle? I imagine the creature tentacle to be just like that! If you've not seen it, go to the video shop and took it!

I will write the next part soon it was just starting to be a little bit long.

-- Welcome within us, Being. --

-- Why you call me being? My name's Liam. --

-- Being Liam. Are different. Are not Being. Not Entity. Different. --

-- What is it you call beings and entities? Is that your word for Humans and Taelons? --

-- Humans. Taelons. Don't understand. --

-- Does not matter. --

-- We will call you Being/Entity Liam. Welcome within us. --

Liam saw a succession of image just like an old movie. The creature was a sort of
archivist of all what had happened at the Embassy. She knew all, every move of
everyone within the walls. He saw what the creature saw, he thgought what she
thought, he heard what she heard this day.

Being Sandoval enters Da'an's office. It's late. It's dark outside the walls. Entity Da'an
seems nervous. Nervous and weak. His fingers are moving vividly before him. Being/entity
Liam is gone outside the walls.

Being Sandoval does the salute. Entity Da'an is worry while being in Being Sandoval
presence. Being Sandoval is bad. We scanned him. Being Sandoval brings bad things with
him. In his pocket. Bad things. Things that Entity Da'an wants but...not. Don't
understand.

Being Sandoval goes to the part of us he names chair. Where Entity Da'an is sat. Entity
Da'an tries to go away from Being Sandoval. He jumps down from the chair. He tries to
escape. But Being Sandoval goes after him.

Entity Da'an cannot goes in his room. Being Sandoval is between him and the enter.
Entity Da'an fears Being Sandoval now. He wants help from Being/Entity Liam.

Entity Da'an turn his back to the virtual glass. He cannot escape from Being Sandoval.
We want to help but Entity Da'an told us to not show ourself in Being's presence. The
rule is that. We cannot broke it.

Being Sandoval takes something from his pocket. The bad thing. The bad thing Entity
Da'an want and want not. It glow. It's bad. Bad for Entity Da'an.

Entity Da'an reaches his hand for take it. But he thinks of Being/Entity Liam and takes his
hand back behind his back.

"Please... go away."

Entity Da'an's voice is weak. He shakes hard. We sense that he tries to hide something
to us. We sense that his body aches inside. He wants it more. The conflict is stronger
within him. He wants it. The weak side will wins.

"You need it Da'an, you know that the substitute is not stronger enough for keep you
alive much longer. Let me help you Da'an. I can help you."

Being Sandoval voice soften. But his duplicity grows at the same time. He wants to do
bad things. He approaches Entity Da'an slowly. Entity Da'an tries to draw back but the
virtual glass is behind him. He cannot go away from Being Sandoval.

Being Sandoval approaches his hand of Entity Da'an's face. The hand with the glowing
orb inside. It glow a few centimeters away from Entity Da'an's face.

He fights against himself. For not accept it. His eyes are wide open with fear.

Being Sandoval takes a step back. Entity Da'an sigh in relief. But Being Sandoval puts his fingertips in the bad glowing thing. Entity Da'an understands and tries to withdraw from Being Sandoval grip. His fingertips are glowing with the Kryss energy.

Being Sandoval approach Entity Da'an once more. Their face almost touch.

"Taelons cannot know how much they are attractives for the Humans."

Being Sandoval has a sadistic expression on his face. He raises his glowing fingers to stroke Entity Da'an's cheek.

Entity Da'an flinched as Being Sandoval's fingers touche his face. He absorbs the energy before our eyes. We were on the edge of betray the Rule for the first time.

It was a fight in Entity Da'an's mind. We sensed it. He raises his hand for touche Being Sandoval one. Entity Da'an suffers. We suffer if Entity Da'an suffers.

We don't like to suffer.

Being Sandoval retires his hand from Entity Da'an's face. Entity Da'an shakes and leans forward to meet Being Sandoval's hand again.

Strange. Entity Da'an hates Being Sandoval, but accepts the bad things. Never completly understood the Entities.

"No Da'an." Being Sandoval takes his hand away from Entity Da'an's face.

"No...you truly don't know how attractive YOU are." Being Sandoval has a bad smile on his lips. We know what he will do to Entity Da'an. Stop it.

Being Sandoval puts his fingertips in the glowing thing again. But don't approaches Entity Da'an's face.

"I'm your Master Da'an. You're not ruled by Kryss but by ME."

Being Sandoval puts his fingertips to his lips, which are now covered by glowing substance. He leans forward now. Entity Da'an knows what he wants to do. He tries to draw back, to push him away with his hands and arms.

Being Sandoval presses his lips to Entity Da'an's neck. He starts kissing his neck. Entity Da'an suffers much, emotionnally.

The glowing thing enter Entity Da'an body. His face shows much pleasure, but the expression in his eyes is fear and a deep hate.

Entity Da'an is now totally catches by his attraction to Kryss, the glowing substance. He leans against Being Sandoval, pressing his neck against Being Sandoval's mouth.

"You learn quickly."

Being Sandoval will die. We will kill him. For what he does to Entity Da'an.

Being Sandoval covered his lips with the glowing substance. Entity Da'an reaches an hand for touche it. But Being Sandoval catches his hand cause Entity Da'an to moans in suffer.

"You need more Da'an. You need Kryss. You need me."

Entity Da'an mind wants to draw back. But his body is totally dependant of Kryss. Another move from Entity Da'an for catch the glowing bad thing.

"No, my dear, with your lips."

Being Sandoval leans forward and kisses Entity Da'an violently on the mouth. Entity Da'an absorbs all the Kryss. Being Sandoval continues kissing him, he tries to undo Entity Da'an's jumpsuit.

But he was stoped by Being Lassiter who comes in us. Being Sandoval slid the Kryss fast into his pocket.

Being Lassiter is surprised by Being Sandoval acting. Entity Da'an collapses on the floor.

"All is well Lassiter, you may leave." Being Sandoval is lying.

"Zo'or requested you on the mothership, Agent Sandoval."

Being Sandoval hesitates. Leave. Leave Being Sandoval. We broke the Rule and send Being Sandoval feelings of hate and fear.

Being Sandoval undo his tie a little. He feels hot. Good. He will depart then.

Indeed.

Entity Da'an is breathing hard.

"I will come Lassiter."

Being Lassiter leaves the room. He is worry. Worry for Entity Da'an. He is good. We like him. He cares for Entity Da'an. Good.

Being Sandoval returns to Entity Da'an. He kisses him roughly on the lips. Entity Da'an is fully conscious now.

"Get out," Entity Da'an whisper.

"Get out," Entity Da'an screams.

Being Sandoval smiled badly.

"One day or another Da'an, you'll need it. You'll call me. You'll beg for me, for it."

Being Sandoval reaches his hand for gently stroke Entity Da'an's cheek. Entity Da'an draw away from his hand. Being Sandoval leaves the room. It was about time. Almost all of us were agreeing to broke the Rule if Being Sandoval did not left NOW.

He finally leaves.

Before the outsiders walls tell us that he was outside, we reache out our arms for catch Entity Da'an's shaking body. He's uncouscious. We cradle him in our arms. He needs comfort. He is poisonned by the glowing Kryss. His body is dying. No...

Being Sandoval made him die.

We will kill Being Sandoval.

We gently put Entity Da'an in our chair. We let the energy fload toward his painful body. He will be okay, for now. Where is Being/Entity Liam?

The flashback/sharing ended. For the first time of his life, Liam felt that killing someone would be great and undoubtly so satisfying...His face was a mask of hate. Toward his father. This being was not his father. It was a crazy man. A monster.

He thanked briefly the creature, mentally.

-- We can kill him. Disapear. Becom a part of us. No one would know. --

-- He's still my father. I can't do that to him. He's crazy. He's becoming insane because of it's cvi. Let me do please. --

-- As you want Being/Entity Liam. cvi? --

Liam smiled at the innocence of the creature. It was like a child. Sandoval was beginning to regain conscienceness.

Liam went to him and took him by his tie, lifted the man feet away from the ground.

"In french it exist a word for what you are Sandoval. Une ordure. It's that what you are," Liam whispered. The french was from Renée. She had said that to Zo'or once...

He took his global and called a volunteer. Not thirty seconds after they were here. Three of the most loyal, to him, volunteers he had ever met.

"Bring him to a detention cell immediatly."

The volunteers seemed to hesitate a little. "But Sir, Why?" asked one of them.

"He's the responsible for Da'an's death. He's delirious and totally insane. His cvi have break down. Is that enough for you?"

"Yes Sir."

"Great. Don't hurt him in anyway. Is it understood?" he said in a commanding tone of voice.

"Yes Sir."

At first he just wants to kill Liam. Don't ask me why. I took the easier explanation, I did not had time for the little motivations story. I told he was crazy but you can think what you want. And after it's in the past. It's because of Sandoval that Da'an died, of an overdose of Kryss. And Sandoval was bad with him. That's the plot.

¤

The door of Da'an's chamber was unlocked, as always. The Taelon never locked it, despite all risks for his security. He entered, trying hard not to cry another time. The chamber was totally empty. Apparently a new companion would arrive soon.

He used his Kimeran perfect memory and remembered what Da'an had said him. In the wall…on the left. He turned to leave. The purple-blueish wall seemed different, but he could not put his finger on what.

He placed his hand on the soft surface and stroke it gently, feeling again the creature's mind.

-- We will open us for you. Entity Da'an told us you would come. --

-- Thank you --

Not three seconds later when Liam re-opened his eyes, a the place of the wall was a little cavity. Just enough for that he could put his hand in it.

He advanced his hand tentativly. His fingertips touched something. Soft. Paper, he thought. He grasped the papers between his shaking fingers. He had the impression of disturbing something important. Very unpleasant sensation.

When he brought his hand back before his eyes, he saw two letters. I did not know he knew write in the human way, Liam thought. Then he turned on paper and saw the writing. He opened his eyes wide. Definitivly not human writing. Kimera or maybe an ancient Taelon dialect, traced with a fine plume.

He saw his name on one paper, but an unknown sort of complicated drawing on the other. For you…and for Zo'or, Da'an had said to him. Must be Zo'or name, he thought.

He heard a noise which sounded very much like someone step. He quickly put the two letters in one pocket of his coat. Indeed a young woman, a volunteer, entered in Da'an's deserted office. She saw the door of the Taelon private quarters open and took a step in.

"Major Kincaid," she asked as she recongnized the intruder. Liam jumped and almost lost his human facade.

"What are you doing here volunteer?" he snapped. He did want to be intimidating with her, but she had just came while a very bad moment.

"I'm sorry Sir." She apologized, "Mi'ef told me to see that everything was ready for the next American Companion, who will arrive tomorrow." He knew her to be one of the first implanted volunteers. She was very young at her implantation. She was one of Da'an personal choose for the project. She controlled her implant totally and perfectly. Liam suspected Da'an to had disanguaged her MI but he never had the proof of it…and never would, he thought sadly.

"Who will be the new American Companion?" asked Liam softly. The young woman was behind the door step but he could see the sadness on her face.

"I don't know Sir. The rumor tell it will be a Taelon from the mother planet, but it's just a rumor." she said.

"Stupid. A Taelon who don't know of the humans. Even Zo'or would have been better. The American people will not accept him as they accepted Da'an." Liam whipered. The volunteers knew he had no implant and that he had trues opinions about the Taelons. He was not controlled by anything so it was usual that he said something against the Taelons.

Liam turned toward the volunteer. He had excpected all but that. A long tear rolled down her cheek.

"Hey, I'm sorry Idid not mean to hurt you." Liam said apologicatly.

"No it's not that…Sir it's just…" another long tear "…that….he was….he saved me from the street. If not of him I would have died in starving. He….I owed him my life. I…I just can't believe he's dead."

Liam did not needed to ask of who she spoke. He felt the same.

Tears rolled down freely on the young woman's cheeks now. Liam did not suspect such….demonstration of her feelings toward the companion. Suddenly he realized that usually the volunteers did not had feelings for a Taelon. They were forced to protect them, to give their life for them if must, because of their implants. But the cvi also prevented them for sadness at the death of a Human or a Taelon. Renée said once that they had pulled out all things that made them human.

The volunteer wiped away her tears quickly.

"I'm sorry Sir. I think I need to do a check up of my cvi," the girl told him in her most little voice.

"No, no volunteer, don't. Everyone will miss him." Even Zo'or, he thought to himself. "By the way, I'm not going to call you 'volunteer' all the time. What's your name?" he asked for broke the deadly silence which planned in the air.

She smiled, relieved of the change in the conversation. "Volunteer Lank, Sir. Mélinda Lank."

"Mélinda, you become my assistant on tomorrow morning. Please be at my office on the mothership at nine A.M." said Liam with a small smile. He turned on his heels, letting the amazed volunteer in the doorway of Da'an's chamber. I don't even know if I will work for the Taelons tomorrow, he thought sadly.

Just when he turned the corner of Da'an's office, he pulled out his global and called Zo'or private number. He knew it for years but never used it. Zo'or responded almost instantally. He was supposed to rest, Liam thought a little surprised.

The Synod Leader looked still weak. His human facade did not hide his Taelon energy form completly. It made him look like sick.

"What Major?" the Taelon asked surprised that the young man had used his private number.

"I found the things Da'an…said he let for us, Zo'or." He stoped here and hesitated a little. " Aren't you suppose to be resting?" he asked gently.

The Taelon looked confused by the question. Obviously, he did not expect the Kimera to…care for him.

"Yes. I was supposed indeed. But my duty call me on the bridge." The Taelon had now difficulties to keep his human facade, even partly, on.

"Zo'or you cannot go like that. You're too weak. The Synod Leader cannot tell that he's resting in his quarters for the day?" asked Liam sarcastically.

The corners of Zo'or's lips formed an, almost unnoticabale, smile. "I fear not, Major. I have duties to do."

Liam sighed in despair. "I also found something…about Da'an's death here."

"What?" demanded the Taelon, his eyes going wide.

"I think I'm better tell you on the mothership. I have other things to do down here for now. Please, at least wait for me, before going on the bridge okay?" Liam asked. He did not believe he had enough guts to ask this to Zo'or. The Synod Leader blinked and nodded reluctantly, before cut the line.

Liam put the gloabl back into his pocket and followed the way the other volunteers had took with Sandoval.

¤

Hope you liked it! Next part by tomorrow morning...if you respond to me quickly about the question in the top of the reply...

But that thing with Da'an and Sandoval me likes NOOOOOOOOT!

The next part will be written this morning and this afternoon, and I will post it tonight it will be long, I think, and with Sandoval's death in. Avis aux fans du dit Sandy : sa mort sera longue et douloureuse... the builiding will eat him or maybe liam will blast him deadly with his sha'ka'ra'va... I'm still hesitating!!!

¤

The volunteers dragged Sandoval to a cell in a lower level of the Embassy, which had never been used, in all Da'an time. The man was unconscious. They just let him fall on the purple floor and get out, locking the virtual glass door, behind them. Blood was floading down his ear, wetting his hairs. His arm was covered with thins red marks, where the skrill tentacles had been.

His implant was not totally gone when the creature had freed him from his skrill. And it would never disapear. During the second the creature had freed him from his skrill but not totally released him, he knew what was liberty for the first time since almost 5 complete years.

He was now returned in the fully implanted Sandoval form. His skrill was the thing which freed him from his MI and from a good part of his cvi. The Taelons were right about the Human mind, but they forgot in all their calculs the Skrill minds. The skrills had been slaved once, they would not be twice. Trapped in a human body. The cvi could control one mind, even strong as the human one was, but not two. After two years the skrill had managed to free himself, and Sandoval at the same time.

The skrill had hated him from the first minute they were trapped in the same body. It was forced to obey him, because of the cvi. When he sensed the MI go away, he also felt the losing of control toward his skrill.

The Taelons believed that the skrills were an almost non-intelligent specie, because, maybe, of the weak resistance they showed to the invasion of their planet by them. But they were very intelligent. Much more than humans Sandoval knew. Taelons considered them like animals, like little pets. No. They had a conscience and a fully, totally developped one.

It was true they had no form of language and no true society or hierarchy. They talked telepathically. Never a Taelon had touched a skrill in the intention of 'speak' with him. They had never know of this talent.

The human had ever felt the MI was not truly destroyed but just inactive, stoped by something stronger.

When the familiar companion left his body and his mind, Sandoval sensed his reason escape from him again. The same pain like when he was implanted. He felt this thing, this mechanical thing, take control of every thoughts he had, of every of his brain energy for establish himself, in his head. He had not fallen uncounscious because of the building creature but more because of the pain, the sadness and the anger of being manipulated again.

The Sandoval, perfect implant, Zo'or favorite puppet, emotionless human, a shame to the humanity…was returned.

¤

He awoke, slowly, painfully. What the hell am I doing here? he thought angrily. If he was not mistaken this was Da'an's Embassy cell. Da'an….he smiled badly as he remembered the Taelon. He knew perfectly how and why the Taelon died. Because of him. How he was happy when Zo'or had told him.

He knew for long that the Taelon had some ties with the resistance. Just the fact that he was protecting Boone, despite his implant had never entirely functionned, was enough to him. A loyal Taelon would have told Zo'or the second he had learned of this. And the arrival, the appearance, of Liam Kincaid had made him more sure than ever of the hidden intentions of the Taelon.

His MI was inactive when he had learned officially of Da'an's ties with Jonathan Doors. He did not told Zo'or, keeping it a secret, for later, for himself. Even now he believed that he took the right decision. Da'an was truly attractive. Every Taelons were for simples humans like them. But Da'an was much more attractive. He understood fully why Boone or Kincaid had wanted to stay to his service enouhg if they were not forced to. Why don't use of this Taelon for a time at least? At first he had just blackmail him, menacing him to tell all to Zo'or if he did not did what Sandoval wanted him to do. It's how he had known how contacted the Jaridians, it's how he had know of the need of Zo'or's handprints, it's how he knew, before spying Zo'or, of Liam's kimera heritage. He remembered clearly Da'an's expression when he had asked him what Liam was. How satisfying…

Then he had learned of the Kryss…and of Da'an addiction to it. He took the chance when it passed.

Before he had never asked to Da'an more than information, but when he saw the Taelon in the rays of the sunrise, he could not resist.

Flashback

Da'an was in front of the virtual glass, as usual at this time of the day. Sandoval approached him silenciously, like a cat waiting for a mouse.

"What do you want Sandoval?" asked the Taelon sharply. Da'an knew that when Sandoval was coming alone in his chamber at this hour it was not for Taelon buisness.

Sandoval did not responded but looked at Da'an from the feet to the head, like scanning him. He then came very close to the Companion, closer for Da'an who tried to draw back but was stoped by the edge of the purple floor. It was a 15 meters falling if he fell from it.

Da'an turned toward him, their chest almost touched. Sandoval reached out an hand and touched Da'an's cheek gently, running his finger from his eye to his lips.

"I had never seen how beautiful you were Da'an." he stated simply. The Companion locked his eyes with Sandoval's one. They were filled with hate.

The agent took a step back and pulled out his global.

"What is it you want, Agent?" asked Da'an more nervously now. Sandoval started to compose the number of Zo'or on the bridge, under the eyes of a near to death scared Da'an. He stoped before touch the last number.

"What is it you want?" repeated the Taelon shakly. "If it's information I assured you that I knew no…"

The human interrupted him sharply. "No Da'an. This time it's not information I want. Nooo…" he whispered in a soft tone which made shivers go down Da'an's back.

"What I want." Sandoval came closer and stroked Da'an's cheek again with the back of his fingers. "I want you Da'an." He leaned forward and brushed his lips to the ones of the disgusted Taelon. He liked…No… He loved the feeling which went down his back and body as he kissed Da'an. He prolonged the kiss and entered in Da'an's mouth with his tongue.

Da'an was truly disgusted. He was trying to escape from Sandoval, each seconds stronger and possessive, embrace. But he could not fight.

"Don't even try. I'm a human Da'an and you are just a Taelon not enough strong to fight me. You know it." Sandoval said between his kisses. He reached an hand behind Da'an's neck and slowly undo the Taelon jumpsuit.

He looked at the Taelon form. "You need a little initiation I think." he whispered badly.

End of flashback

Sandoval's delightful, for him, flashback ended when he felt a tight grip around his neck. He opened his eyes tentatively, for see Kincaid angry face looking over him.

He had never seen the young man so angry since the past two years. He began really scaring when he lost totally the control of his human facade. Sandoval eyes widened when he saw the real kimera face of Kincaid.

"Another of our Kimeran gifts Sandoval : when we touch anyone we can sense everything he thinks of." Liam said with a look in his eye like he was going to kill him without thinking. Sandoval just smiled badly.

"What Kincaid? You did not like it?" he asked just to be pulled even more harder to the wall by Liam.

"I don't know how you call it Sandoval but I call it a rape. You raped him. You dared rape him, you bastard." Liam hissed hardened again his grip on Sandoval throat almost throttled him by the way.

"How many times?" Liam whispered releasing his grip a little.

"You really wanna know, Kincaid….Four." Sandoval said apparently satisfied of himself, an hard smile on the lips.

Liam let his father fall to the ground, just to kick him hard in the stomach…four times. He took Sandoval up again for look at him in the eyes. "This was for him."

Sandoval managed to find enough air for speak another time. "You'll not have the guts to kill me Kincaid. I know you want but you will not. You cannot…kill your….own…father."

Liam thought for a moment and let Sandoval fall to the ground again. The implant moaned in pain but could smile despite it.

"No you're right Sandoval I'll not kill you. I cannot kill my own father. But nothing more link us. Nothing more than blood. I saved you once. I thought you were on the humanity side. But I don't consider you as a human anymore." Liam exited the cell with a disdainful look toward his former father and went toward the portal at the other end of the corridor. "Adieu"

The familiar flash of light illuminated Sandoval's cell. The man laughed in satisfaction. "No Kincaid you'll never have the guts of killing me, you're too kind. It's the breach in your shell." He whispered for himself and…the walls.

Suddnely he felt like something observed him. The sensation you have when you know that you're watched but you cannot tell by who and where this who is. Sandoval felt a chill go down his back. He felt hot…and cold three second later. It was like someone played with temperature control within the Embassy. He felt like a stranger. He felt surrounded by hate and anger.

He seemed that the walls were brighter, more pink. They seemed alive, he thought with some fear. He remember what once Da'an had told him, that the Embassy had a true conscience within. It was that the look in Liam eyes. The satisfied look. Kincaid wanted to kill him. HE would not but the CREATURE would. He saw the walls slowly began to reduct the space of the cell. He went in the center. Déjà he had just enough space to be lying on the ground. The surface had diminued of twice, the next time he opened the eyes. He saw the glowing walls, the glowing creature, came closer and closer to him.

The whole wall morphed in about hundred tentacles, like the ones which had catched him first. The energy arms took him and slowly covered all his body. They dissolved their own forms for cover all inch of his body, letting pain where skin hda been. He did not felt something, he was clinically dead for a while. They totally incorporated him like they had done with his skrill. With a last spasm of conscience and a despaired scream, Agent Ronald Sandoval disapeared forever.

They included him in them. He began a part of them as the walls took back their normal form, letting nothing but Sandoval's global which starting buzzing circonstantially. Nothing had happened, or no one would know.
