My Rebirth as an alien Queen

Episode 54- The dream

I heaved a heavy sigh as I placed back the letter after thoroughly going through it, My ear twitched after hearing a sound so I'm guessing Hero was moving on his bed, I immediately headed back to the little hallway and back into his room after I had a good look at the letter.

"Hey" I smiled as he rubbed his sleepy eyes while trying to get off bed but I immediately held him back to the bed not wanting him to get up yet.

"Where were you?" He groaned sleepily as he immediately wrapped his arms around me.

"Was just exploring" I smiled caressing his cheek as I slowly moved to lay by his side replaying everything I had read in the paper in my head.

'Dear little brother, apologies that I am out of the hell you bind me to...so, It's time for you to be in the same hell hole, meet me up at your mother's tombstone, then you can Nio" I found it really shocking but not so surprised, I replayed Barb's conversation in my mind for a minute and eventually...I got her point. The ex prince can't rule without being powerful...he might be after Hero's powers but...I didn't get to draft a solution to the problem before drifting off to sleep by Hero's side.

Where I found myself was dark and the only source of light was the green glow from the green mark on my hand. It was glowing so bright that I could make out my surrounding but I spotted another green glow. It's glow lit the strange looking place on. Everywhere lit up as my little alien friend emerge from the door. There were steel carvings on the wall. I couldn't help but feel amazed at the work. My little alien friend moved over to me. For the first time I noticed, It walked like a Pigeon. Why does it looks like he was lifting his tiny two feet at the same time? I mentally asked myself. I didn't know but I was curious. It stopped right in front of me and took my glowing hand in his tiny little ones. He slowly rubbed his thumb on it and slowly the glow disappear. Is that even a thumb, I mean I can't conclude because he had only three fingers.

"what are you?" I asked and he raised it head to meet my eyes. Why was it so short. It couldn't be more than 2ft.

"Ghafils" it replied me but I have no idea what it meant though the word sounds like the only solid word it had said to me so far.

"what do you want?" I further asked even though I had no idea what it was saying. I had a feeling he was replying me with the way it's mouth moves. I felt it understood me somehow.

"why are you helping me?" I found myself asking again. I haven't even figured out what exactly it wants or the meaning of it's earlier answers as well as the place I had found myself when he had almost taken me from my family. But fortunately after I woke up, I sent the recording to Tanya to figure out the meaning and I haven't really gotten time to check it out since I was busy sorting out Danny and Nick's mess. Oh God I'll give them an heart attack if I don't wake up any sooner.

"when you took me the other time. Where was I? What was I doing there and who are those?'i asked but all I heard from him was silly whimpering. He kept whimpering and for a moment I thought I heard it mentioned Tanya after a while of watching it whimper.

" how did you even know about us?" I asked suddenly frustrated throwing my hands in the air in response. After a while of watching him whimper I felt myself slipping back. I thought it'll never end. Thank fully, I thought I sighed after I opened my eyes to find myself back at the work shop. Danny was worriedly holding my hand but watching Brian and Nick argue on something. Tony and Tanya was seated in front of a desk working on something on the laptop. Charlie had his back rested against the net which had the tools trapped to it. His eyes lit to realize I was awake.

"Claire" Charlie called in relief as he rushed over to me. Danny instantly got distracted and turned to me. The rest of the team moved over, except the apocalypse haven't happened, It felt so much like camp.

"Are you hurt anywhere? You have tears in your eyes Claire?" Danny which I knew was Nick worriedly queried trying not to panic and I smiled.

"it feel so much like Camp Danny" the tears was now slipping down my cheek as I met everyone's worried gaze. Danny nodded smiling at me after seeing the faces that had suddenly surrounded me. I realized when I tried to stand that I was lying down on a car seat. An expulsed car seat. Just great I thought standing to face Nick.

"what happened?" I asked briefly meeting everyone's eyes.

"well you freaked us out, why did you passed out like that?" Brian asked and I frowned at him.

"well, you just passed out, it really did scare Hailey and Clarisse but we assured them you were fine. Your brother said it's your type of disease-

" seriously? Type of disease? "I asked in disbelief turning away from Brian to my brother after interrupting him.

" well, it sounded like the most perfect excuse at the moment. I mean there wasn't any other explanation I would have found befitting for the situation" my brother explained shrugging his shoulders in his funny kind of way. I sighed after mulling over it for seconds.

"did I mutter?" I asked not turning to anyone in particular and they chorus yes.

" but, I figured out everything" Tanya informed and my lids shot up in curiosity.

"it's very funny Claire, you will not believe it, come.. I wrote it down" Tanya beckoned me over to the desk where she had been working with Tony and I followed with the rest of the team.

"the first recording you sent me, you know, about you finding yourself in the ship and been forced to meet the giant aliens. This is the conversation. It reads 'humans'-

" I knew hahums was humans, so used to that word now" I scoffed before urging Tanya to continue.

"what is a human doing here?' then a different voice said.' my beloved cousin is siding with the humans, he brought her to the ship' then the first voice said 'my son is not a traitor. He would not do that' then a completely different voice said 'you summoned her to the ship uncle, why? I believe you are the traitor. I've been sensing humans around us I can't believe you would do that uncle' then the second voice came angry saying 'I would never do that and you know I would not. I find this place. But you travel the mind of the human through time. Are you trying to stop us?' and the very first feminine first voice said 'son of divuhuhra and the future chief, would not do that. Destroy the human son'-

"ooh, and that's why I actually felt the worst pain in the world. He almost killed me" I muttered.

"I think I got the thing here" Tony scoffed.

"yeah we all do" Nicholas added and Tony groaned.

"I don't think I do" Brian chirped in but we all ignored him, yeah because he was like that. Very annoying sometimes. I think I still have questions running through my mind. There were so many things confusing about all of it.

"but if they have the power to destroy humans, why can't they do that with their powers instead of turning to our life sources" I mumbled to myself asking no one in particular.

" what about my recent mutterings, did you get anything? " I asked shoving aside the questions and confusion filling me up.

" yes. I recorded everything and the translations should be ready in 7..6..5..4..3..2..1..0 seconds... And it's ready" Tanya announced a notification popping up on her laptop and clicking on it we entered into the site which brought a whole lot of writings out.

"I'll do the reading" Tanya offered clearing her throat before deciding to read. 'what are you' English, your question I guess" Tanya said raising her head to face me and I nodded before she resumed reading.

"Ghafils it replied then you asked 'what do you want' and he told you 'earth, but not all of us want earth. Earth is not that healthy for my people. As you make use of oxygen. Our life source is Nitrogen. We cannot survive long enough with the amount on earth, not that it's minimal, it's too much for our use. We left our home on the promise of my uncle finding us a better home. But he merely want to rule us all. I cannot alone prove to my people we do not belong here. Though Nitrogen is abundant here, oxygen is not really good for us. And the abundance of Nitrogen can be very harmful as well. I cannot prove this to my people with my uncles manipulation. That is why I need you to help me prove that. I do not want to stay here either. I do not want your world or neither dominion over it. I just want to protect my people " Tanya read out as we all listened very much attentive.

I woke up with a start after a memory of five years ago resurfaced making me pant while I check Hero at my side but he was gone.
