****Action**** Turning Sides part 2.

 

"Why did you bring me here?"
Amber asked. She remembered nothing, felt nothing but hatred for everything, especially those that had tried to lay their hands on her down on the planet. She did however have a sense of familiarity with the man looking back at her, into her black eyes. She flet as though he were an old friend, a work colleague, maybe even someone she may have had feelings for.
 
What she couldnt remember, is that Jay was once her direct superior, that Jay was her godfather and that Jay was indeed the first man she'd felt an attraction too when she'd grown form toddler to teenager during a full three-day period of being marroned an a desolate world with the medical crew and Jay.
 
"Because you belong to me..." Jay replied.
He'd seen the blackness in her eyes, and having seen the same thing in his best friend Phil's eyes, Ambers father, he knew exactly what it meant.
 
Amber had been taken over by overwhelming evil, evil almost as great as Jay's own. He also knew that she held no memory of her own, that the Bliss addiction she suffered saw to that therefore she could be manipulated.
 
"You're my head pilot..."
"Why am I the only human other than yourself?"
"Because we're better than the other humans, we deserve to be among the gods...the Hymenoptera are the nearest living creature to that in this universe...the universe that you will help me to conquer..."
"Conquer?"
"Yessss...." Jay was sounding more and more psychotic by the day, emphasising words that need emphasis, turning simple sentences into malicious sounding words.
Jay knew, that Amber was one of the best pilot's, she was certianly better than Dean, definitley equal to Keats. In fact, the only person who had ever bested her in a dogfight was Jay himself.
He could control the Hymenopteran pilots through the hive, sure, giving them the benefit of his piloting expertise...but in doing so his attnetion was diverted away from other important areas...
 
If he could manipulate Amber into taking command of the fighter fleet, the expertise would be better spread out...sure...she wasn't as experienced as him, but HE had taught her. Plus...she was expendable.
 
"Does the smell of conquest not arouse you Amber?" Jay asked "Do you not want the feeling of the adrenaline rushing through you when you take down an empire by force?
"Yes.." Amber said "Yes I do...."
"Excellent...." Jay muttered and turned away "Now...watch, as the planet that treated you so badly pays for it's crimes agaisnt the Hymenopteran Empire..."
"Open a channel..." he ordered a Hymenopteran crew member. He had already called in his troops and Jay was now broadcasting to the human population on every tv, radio and internet channel.
"PEOPLE OF NEW IBIZA, YOUR PLANET HAS BEEN CHOSEN BY THE HYMENOPTERAN EMPIRE AS OUR NEXT TARGET. How exciting for you!"
He paused and looked back at Amber, she had a glint in her eys that told him she was enjoying this.
"AS THE PLANET THAT SPAWNED THE REBIRTH OF THE HYMENOPTERAN REIGN, I WILL ALLOW YOU THIRTY OF YOUR MINUTES TO  EVACUATE THE PLANET BEFORE I BLAST IT OUT OF THE SKY..."
He switched off the comm.
"Charge the weapon...fire when ready"
"I thought you said you'd give them half an hour?" Amber asked
"I lied..."
