Chapter 267 Trying To Pick A Path
The path finally opened up, and I blinked at what I saw.
It wasn\'t the people that made me take a second take, it was the layout. The area that I floated into was identical to the Royal Flying and I got a tight feeling in my chest not seeing my wives.
"Sorry, Hilda thought that this might be more familiar to you, but it seems to have upset you," Shiva said as I sat down in front of my chair.
"It\'s fine, I just really miss everyone," I said softly as I looked down at the chair thinking of Miasma sitting on my lap, and Messia standing beside us.
A tear formed in my eye, but I wiped it away as Thanos and Tigra flew over to land on my shoulder. Hexi had been resting on my neck, but I was sure she slept more than a cat, and Sakura was walking over to me.
"We will get your family back. We are headed to the Meccat Capital right now, and we will get through this fast," Rai cait explained, and I looked up at where his voice came from as Sakura came over to my side.
"It had better Bee. We really don\'t have time for this, so I won\'t put up with someone trying to trick me or waste my time. I don\'t want to start a Cat fight, but my people are in danger, which reminds me. Everyone needs to Bee accepted into my system so you can become part of the hive. Hilda!" I called, and my boxy bee appeared.
"Yes, my Queen. I can\'t help you quite yet, there are more people here still alive than I assumed when first scanned. Do you wish for me to save them all?" Hilda asked, and I put one of my hands to my forehead.
"How many? Nevermind, if you can bring them here and catch up with them all, then yes, but I need you back here before the capital. There is too much we need to do, but I agree that you should save them if you can," I said in a tired voice, then felt a warm soft hand take one of my hands.
"Don\'t stress too much. We can only do what we can, right?" Sakura said in a reassuring voice and I sighed.
"Yes, but I am still worried about everyone else. Two of my wives are in a very dangerous place right now, and I don\'t know what to do about them. I want to tell them to leave, but I hardly think that they will leave the goblins to die. The best thing I can think of is to get them to leave the mountains, but I think they will be in danger no matter where I take them," I said and sat down in my chair.
"The weapon that the General is trying to use is the one that\'s going to be the problem. And on top of that there is the Swarm Wars that has already started," Rai Cait explained, and I nodded, pulling up a scan of Divinity Spike.
"Once we are done in the capital, will we be able to shoot this down?" I asked, but Shiva is the one that spoke up.
"Yes, but there are people from many races up there right now. While it would be easiest, I think taking over the station, or sabotaging it would be better. The people in there have done nothing wrong other than be forced to work on these projects," Shiva explained, and I nodded.
"I see, well then we are going to have to think about how that will be possible," I said.
"Gamble is already up there with a girl from the Skyfolk that has switched sides. They are going to try and sabotage the station, but it will take time," Hilda said from beside me, and I groaned, putting my face in two of my hands.
"What is wrong with everyone?! Why is the smartest person we have there?!" I complained, and Sakura laughed from beside me.
"Well, this is the biggest problem, so it only makes sense to have the smartest person on it, right?" Sakura said with a smile, and I sighed.
"True, but Pixie will never forgive me if something happens to him," I said, feeling drained.
"The woman he is up there with is going to be his second wife, so I think that he will be fine. Pixie agreed with the rest of the women that this was for the best. Your wives are working in the shadows right now, preparing for when you arrive," Hilda explained, and I nodded.
I leaned back in my chair, and looked at the moving map of the area. There was a small village of Deer Folk we were passing by and I sighed as I looked it over.
Things were going so well before, but then the Predators showed up. Then, before we could catch our breaths, we stumbled on to the Tellariders.
When we finally stopped the Predators, the Tellarider ran away, and found the goblins. Then in trying to help my sister, she calls the Skyfolk on us, my people get captured, and I am sent half around the world with no way to talk to anyone.
Things were so peaceful when this all started out, but if I could get rid of the two major problems I might be able to go back to that way. The thing that I needed to focus on right now while I had the time was Helaina and the other Wasp Folk.
If I could figure out how to break whatever was controlling her, then I could break the other Queens free. When that happened, the Sky Folk would no longer be able to force the lower world to fight for them.
"Sakura, and Shiva, can you girls come with me to go see our sleeping Queen, now that I am outside of that blasted silencing mountain. I should be able to get a scan on her now, but I also want you, Shiva, to use the ship to scan her as well. I don\'t know what is wrong with her, but we are going to find out," I said as I stood up.
