"My name is Crystaall, you Highness."
"Recite me your full name, bounty hunter."
"Crystaall Sekera Sehefadu."
The Queen stepped back in shock and then rushed forward to hug Crystaall, the hug was tight and the grip was nearly tearing at the black fabric she still wore. The Queen's advisers looked at what was going on in confusion, and then watched the Queen let go of the girl and hold her by the shoulders with an even tighter grip.
"It has been so long since you've lived here my dear. I can't wait to name you as my-"
"Mom.... I'm here to learn my past."
"What do you mean?"
"I have no memory of you or my life until the age of 8. Everything else is a blur, along with a burning building."
"I see. Well, let's get you uncuffed first. Guards! Execute that rodian and get my daughter relieved of her shackles."
Crystaall immediately broke free of her mother and rushed herself to stand in front of Grey-Kast. The fire in her eyes ignited and her anger began to rose. Did her mother have no soul?
"You will not hurt my friend, and if you do, you will take me with him!"
Her mother looked at her and smiled innocently and sighed as she began to walk toward Crystaall.
"My dear, he is just a rodian and nothing else, do not think you have some bond with the alien."
"No... he is not just A rodian, he is my Friend, and he has gone through a lot to get me here."
"You will step aside, as is my rule!"
"You will not hurt Grey-Kast! Not while I still live!"
With those words, the anger built up and Crystaall could only react on instinct, breaking the shackles that bound her wrists. She took down the nearest guard with a quick punch and took his rifle while standing in front of Kast. Perhaps she acted as harshly as her mother had, but she knew she was in the right.
