Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness

"I may need the help of your man, Rigo," Dora said as she pointed towards Rigo.

"No problem, after all we are now heading straight to our destination and navigation can be run over by your team," James immediately agreed.

Rigo just looked at James, as if it was up to him then he would postpone all this until they reached their destination safely. Rigo knew it was hard to change the course of the ship once it started its light speed travel, but he also knew it wasn't totally impossible.

So, before he left his place he checked again that the system Rigo brought from James' little cruiser was successfully running and taking over everything here.

He then linked the chain of highest order in the system to be James followed by himself. as for Dora or any other member of her crew they needed the approval of Rigo on every single decision out there.

It was kind of stressful to him, but this was what he could do to secure his leader's safety.

"I will need the help of two of my men," Rigo said as he was already exhausted by monitoring everything running here, so he needed some help.

"No problem, bring them with you then," Dora said as she went towards a remote corner where the library of non-significant stuff was stored there. it was the suitable place to look for the true identity of Islinda.

They had her picture and her name, and so they could find out her true identity fast.

However even after the passage of a whole day they couldn't know who she truly was. All the database stored here was revised more than once by Dora's and Rigo's men. At the end of the day they came back towards the sitting silent James with their blank faces.

"I presume you weren't that lucky finding any info, right?" James welcomed the two of them with these words.

"Perhaps if you weren't just sitting idle here doing nothing and instead helped us then we might end up finding more useful info," Dora complained with a tiring voice.

James just glanced at her like he wasn't really interested with what she said. He wasn't sitting idle, yes in the first ten or twelve hours perhaps he did that, but later on he became bored.

He realized trying to think about what happened without gathering all the missing data wouldn't drive him anywhere. He had to stop and postpone this ownself trial until sometime later when he had more solid data about what really happened there.

So, he found himself a new hobby, which was to observe the camera's live broadcast of the cell where the two he rescued were held at.

He found it amusing at first, then he began to get bored with time until a few minutes when he got something useful.

Islinda was a queen, or a princess at the least. She was behaving herself all the time even when she was sitting alone with this hyperactive freak called Alex.

Alex was literally losing his mind, as all the time he kept crying for his father and mother like a little kid. He kept doing that for over twenty hours until he got tired, and during that Islinda never bothered to say a word to him.

When he settled down, another wave of hyperactivity struck the cell, this time it was his endless speech.

It was a surprise for James to know that he was born from the isolating zone guarding the trading place of the Terasoras ship. This meant only one thing, his parents were dead and James was the one to kill them.

After a couple of hours, Islinda got really bored and sick from his endless speech, so they both started to quarrel. This was almost at the same time Dora and Rigo came to James.

James was able to monitor what was happening via Rigo's help, as the latter informed him about the little trick he did to this cruiser.

Although James felt it wasn't a necessary move, he didn't object loudly at it. after all there was no wrong in the presence of a safe measure, right?

Just before they reached him and during the obvious complaining words of Dora to him, James' mind was focused on totally another place.

At this precise moment, the elegant and classy Islinda was on verge of breaking down so she started to vent all her frustration upon Alex. Amidst all this she said one important info, the name of her empire.

"Have you looked at the whole grand sector database?" James asked.

"Sure, we did," Rigo replied, cutting the way for Dora for another assault on his leader.

"Good, then here is a question for you: is there an empire with the name of Rodan here?" James calmly asked.

"W-What? I never heard about such an empire before," Dora replied before feeling something was unusual, "How did you get this name?"

"Are you sure there is no empire here by this name?" James ignored the confused words of Dora as he asked Rigo, who instantly replied:

"Not registered in the database of the grand sector."

"Then what about the past?" James asked as he had a crazy idea in his mind.

"Past?!" Dora exclaimed with surprise as she began to link the dots here.

"No, the database here had even the earliest empires' names and brief words about their history. There is no current or past empire that goes by the name of Rodan," Rigo replied.

"Good, then start digging at other grand sectors," James simply said.

"Excuse me, can you at least explain how you knew such a name?" Dora asked.

"It's the name of Islinda's empire, as she claims she is the queen and her uncle had taken the throne from her," James simply replied, but all he got was a doubting look from Dora, "What? Do you seriously believe I was sitting here all this time idling without doing anything at all? C'mon, I'm not that lone and sick minded person!"

She just looked at James not knowing where she got the idea to just punch him in the face. James just ignored her as he looked at Rigo who nodded his head while saying:

"I'm on it."

Dora was about to go and help as well but James gestured to her to wait. She stood at her place feeling weird, as she was supposed to be in her own cruiser but somehow she was getting the feeling this was James' cruiser.

That was an annoying feeling that she didn't know how to deal with. James gave her the same vibe before when they were together at her small cruiser. Back then he played her by Rigo's card, but now she wasn't aware of the trick James' used to control all her cruisers.

She had this feeling, and she was sure of what she felt, but she had no proof of it, and that made her quite mad.

"What?!" she aggressively said.

"Nothing, why are you so tense?" James replied as he noticed the weird attitude she had towards him.

"Nothing, if you have nothing to say then I will excuse myself," Dora said as she moved. James just watched her leaving, as he was thinking what he did wrong to get her bad side.

He wanted to speak with her about the problem of Alex, as he had only one idea in his mind right now, which was to kill him.

He knew no matter how good he hid the truth from Alex, Alex would eventually know. He also didn't want to raise a ticking bomb nearby him, if he knew that from the beginning then he would have preferred to let him die back there and not save him.

James then glanced briefly towards the nearby Eli. She was like an angel who kept watching him without saying a word before she couldn't take it anymore and slept.

This wasn't something she could be blamed for, as her mind was trying to process everything that she just experienced. For her, things happened somehow differently.

She was just escaping from her captives and then she met James when she convinced him to help her in saving the others.

Then everything went blank, like she entered deep sleep and then she woke up to find herself right here inside this amazingly huge cruiser and everyone here was looking at her with conflicted intentions.

At the same time, she figured out that James managed to save her life from some maniac who was scheming to kill her. Also she knew by accident about what happened to those who lived in that trading zone, they all died.

Either killed on the hands of that maniac, or killed on the hands of

James, they were all now dead.

This caused her pain, severe pain that she didn't want to share with anyone even James. She didn't know how to look at him anymore, was he the hero who saved her life? or the maniac who killed everyone else?
