The taste of victory, the taste of blood, lingers in my mouth. The last Ryder Lord lies dead at my feet, a pool of blood now covers the floor, and the survivors of my first assault look upon the scene in horror. Their leader is dead, their identities revealed to the world. "Your families are in danger, I suggest you go to them" I advise the crowd around me. Whether it was my voice or the fact that I was correct that did it, they all panicked and ran to their spacey looking vehicles. All but one. Several things struck me about this particular Ryder. The first was, it was a girl. The second, she was right handed. She would have to be, on account that she has no left arm. The fact that she was even here was a mystery, in their rampages the Ryders only took the eldest male child from families, and only if they were left handed did they live. As I approach her she slowly begins to smile, a wicked toothy grin. Then I see why she was kept. Her right hand is deformed beyond human recognition, but I knew what she was instantly. She bows before me and speaks. "Father, you have returned."
Ok, so this is going to be more than three parts. And forgive me if I branch off of this in my other stories, but I'm having fun with this. Most of the time I have a plan in the way my stories turn out, but I'm really just making this up as I go along.
Second post for today Drones, I have to force myself to wait until tomorrow for another. Thanks for reading.
