Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness

Chapter 44: Falling in A Perfectly Executed Space Trap

He paused intentionally, and Dora didn't take his bait as she looked to Rigo again silently. James didn't stop smiling for a while, as Rigo was really doing a marvelous job there.

He felt great luck, as he was nearly the only person in the entire galaxy who owned droids, and they weren't like any normal droids, they were war elites.

The fight was really hot, as both sides were trying to destroy each other rapidly and swiftly, but the balance was off towards the Rontage imperial spaceships, as their numbers kept increasing by pressing minutes. That drove more worry over James, as this wasn't boding well at all.

"Where the hell is your ship?" James couldn't take it anymore, so he asked directly pointing towards the hologramic scan of the nearby battlefield.

Dora was also questioning herself the same thing, as they kept moving in the battle for half an hour now, and she couldn't get a glimpse over her ship at all.

"Dizy, try reaching out to them and see where they are hiding," Dora didn't answer James' question, instead she ordered her Dizy. Dizy moved towards the navigation unit and started sending a message to Dora's ship. After a few moments, she replied:

"I already sent the message and it appeared here they received it, but" she paused strangely, which made Dora to ask in urgency:

"But what?"

"There is no indication of their reply at all," Dizy said.

"What do you mean by that?" James asked as he turned to Dizy, "Are you sure you sent it to the right ship?"

"Of course I did, do you think I'm an idiot like you to do such a shameful mistake?" Dizy replied intensely.

James ignored her rude remark as he looked at Dora and asked:

"Is there anything wrong that might happen to your ship?"

Dora understood his meaning, so she replied instantly:

"That's impossible, as all on that ship are my personal trusted assets."

"I didn't mean that, I'm just guessing the worse," James said vaguely, but Dora got his meaning to say without hesitation:

"That's impossible, as my cruiser needs a lot of people to operate, or else it won't work and would be long destroyed."

James didn't give up on his idea, as he felt a bad regarding this matter, so he stressed on by saying:

"A man like that Immortal must have a group or followers, right?"

This time, Dora didn't need to argue with him, as she knew his thoughts were right, and that sudden transmission that appeared in the cruiser made her sure of James' doubts.

"To all the rebel fleet, our beloved princess Dora was held captive by the imperial fleet, and her small cruiser is now under their control.

They are trying to reach the princess' main battleship, so we will send you the coordinates of that small cruiser. You mustn't let them approach the main battleship, or everything will be lost. Godspeed rebels."

Awkward silence prevailed over the place after the transmission ended for moments, before Dizy muttered in disbelief:

"We are doomed! They have sent our location. They must have tracked our message and pinpoint our location."

"Fast close that transmission and stop any communication with them."

"Move rapidly away from here, I don't care if we got several shots, just make us move far away now."

Dora and James voices appeared at the same moment, as Dora ordered Dizy, while James instructed Rigo.

Both orders were executed at once, as Dizy closed the communication with Dora's spaceship, and Rigo started to move the cruiser with the highest speed away from their place, and they got a couple of hits that made the cruiser tremble again.

"We are being tracked by many cruisers now," Anna suddenly said, attracting everyone's attention.

"Can you shake them off?" Dora asked Rigo with a haste.

"Tracking can't be shaken except with cloaking, do you have any cloaking device here?" Rigo asked while he was moving with rapid speed as far away from here as he could.

"Cloaking device? What does that even mean?" Dizy asked, while Dora kept silence as she didn't know what that droid was talking about.

"You don't know cloaking devices? That's strange, without this device, we can't escape these ships, except if they give up chasing us," Rigo said, as he made a sharp turn to avoid a cannon strike that came from a star destroyer.

Everyone here in this spot became an enemy to this small cruiser, as the imperial forces were also attacking it as it raised the flag of the rebellion.

"No, we can't leave here," James said out of the blue.

"Affirmative," Rigo replied as he returned to try and evade the incoming attacks. James wasn't stupid, he understood the hidden meaning behind Rigo's words.

He wouldn't leave here before finding that device and disable it. Dora also knew what Rigo meant, and understood the reasons behind James' response, so she suggested:

"Let's go back to the zone, they can't follow us easily there."

Dizy said:

"It's a good idea, let's do it."

Anna nodded her head in agreement, while Rigo waited for the orders of James. Dora also waited to hear his agreement, so they could escape here. instead of saying yes, James asked:

"Tell me, is that Immortal an intelligent man?"

Dra looked at him with loss as she replied:

"He is the most intelligent cunning man I have ever seen."

"Good," James then nodded while saying, "I disagree on your suggestion then."

Dizy was the one to move towards James waving her fists in a threat while saying:

"If you have a better idea, then say it, or else shut up."

"Dizy, enough," Dora's angry voice came suddenly from behind the two of them, which was a surprise, as Dizy didn't expect her to get angry for this stranger. Dora moved step by step slowly towards James till she nearly got her face touching his, then she said:

"Do you believe he is setting us a trap there?"

She was gritting her teeth, as this would be the third time in a row to fall for this hideous man schemes. James didn't flinch as he replied calmly:

"A man that set this whole play and managed to kidnap your ship isn't an idiot or stupid. He won't take the effort to close all our escape routes like this and suddenly forget that zone. A trap is waiting for us there, I'm pretty sure of it."
