Aubrey knew her next words should be chosen carefully, the room was growing smaller and her and Beca's lives were on the line,

"No, we are not spies. We are on the run from Asus Farr."

Jesse shook his head, "Then explain how you can speak."

Aubrey took a deep breath, "Hear me out. I was a Captain for Asus Farr, sent here to scout the planet for resources. I was captured in Sector C by natives and held captive under their leader, Eric, also from Asus Farr."

Aubrey looked around and could see the relief in the men's faces, "I escaped with Beca when the soldiers showed up and war broke out."

"Captain huh?" Jesse asked.

"Yes. My father is the Commander and Leader of Asus Farr."

"Then tell me princess, why are you here with this native, if you're practically royal?" Jesse quizzed.

"Because of her." Aubrey said untucking Beca's face from behind her and cradling her into her side with affection. "Because she saved my life and I care for her. My father tried to kill me for betraying him."

Jesse reached to Beca and pulled her poncho off the side, exposing her rib cage.

"What are you doing?" Aubrey asked protectively.

"Checking something." Jesse replied. He pulled the poncho to the side exposing Beca's tribal marking, "Whinokali Tribe. The tribe the General put Eric in charge of in Sector C."

"So?" Aubrey asked.

"Your story checks out. So now tell us, what are you doing on the run?" Jesse asked.

"Trying to get as far away from my father as possible." Aubrey replied.

"Well that's hard to do with a war going on." Jesse snickered.

"Is there anywhere for us to go? Anyway to get off this rock?" Aubrey asked.

"Aubrey I will be honest, with Asus Farr surrounding the planet and with the forces they have, there is no place to go. However, we could really use your intelligence on the battlefield."

"I'm not interested." She replied uninterested.

"Take a walk with me Aubrey."

"What about Beca?"

Jesse looked at the skittish girl clinging to Aubrey, "Donald. Take this one to holding block 4."

Donald jerked the girl away from Aubrey and forced a struggling Beca out to the door and down to the cell. Aubrey tried to hold onto Beca but Jesse intervened. "She's going to be fine Aubrey. Holding Block 4 is filled with some of her clan mates." Aubrey eased up knowing Beca would be safe and joined Jesse on the walk.

"Where are we going?" Aubrey asked as Jesse held the tent flap open, revealing a giant camp filled with smaller tents, fires and soldiers.

"This is the Grand Army." Jesse spoke holding his arms up. "Come with me."

Jesse and Aubrey made their way around the camp, Aubrey taking notes as she went. Some men were sparring, some where working on weapons, some were eating. Typical human barbaric warriors she thought thinking way back to her early school days in history class.

"What do you think?" Jesse asked when they made it back to his tent.

"They're certainly high-spirited men." Aubrey said trying to find a nice thing to say.

"Do you think we stand a chance?" Jesse said cutting to the chase.

Aubrey knew Asus Farr better than anyone, and she knew damn good and well that this 'grand army' didn't stand a chance. "No, you'll be lucky to survive the first day of direct battle."

Jesse looked on sickly, he thought his army was going to test Asus Farr, he spent months prepping his men for battle and he just felt his pride fall into his gut, "But we are more than 5 thousand strong. I don't understand."

"That is why you already lost the battle." Aubrey spoke. "Asus Farr can make more droids in a day than your army can breed and produce in 100 years."

"This Army is the only thing standing between Asus Farr and our City." Jesse said down, we must be able to stop them somehow."

"Many armies have tried and failed, that's why Asus Farr is still conquering. They cannot lose."

"We need more men." Jesse said enthusiastically as if that would solve the issue. "We have reserves in the city…"

"No, that will just make them thirsty for more and more blood."

Just then, a messenger ran up to deliver a message, "Captain Swanson!"

"Yes, Benji?"

"The Scout has returned with news from the front line and the Ambassador Wilikin has requested an urgent council meeting!"

"Thank you Benji. Aubrey. You will accompany me to the city seeing you maybe able to decipher and help plan our attack against Asus Farr."

"I'm not going without Beca." Aubrey stated firmly.

Jesse rolled his eyes, "Natives aren't allowed into the city unless they are property."

"What do you mean 'property'." Aubrey hissed.

"Slaves? Servants? Guards? You owning a slave to work for you? I don't know how else to explain it." Jesse said grabbing a uniform for Aubrey to put on. "Here, put this on."

"But Beca isn't my slave!" Aubrey yelled changing her clothes.

"Listen Aubrey, it's the law. I know you care for her, but I only have so much pull in society. And if you don't want her in circulation for the army, we need to get her out of the cell and she will just have to be your property until we leave the city."

Aubrey was growing madder at the situation, "So you want my help, but I have to follow your society's rules?"

"Please Aubrey, its just one small thing. Beca is use to this treatment anyway."

Aubrey smacked Jesse across the face and spit, "Don't you dare say that again!"

Jesse took a note to back off the subject, but Aubrey let in and they retrieved Beca from the cell and headed for the city.

Just before they entered the city Jessed attached a leash to Beca and handed the end to Aubrey for her to hold.

"Seriously." Aubrey grunted.

Jesse looked sympathetic and they reached the gate to check through,

"Captain Swanson of legion 498, 1 guest and her slave."

"Looks pretty rabid, Captain. Sure she is safe to enter the city?" The officer said checking Beca over. Aubrey wanted to strangle him but Jesse assured she was safe and the guard cleared them to enter and they headed straight for the War Temple.

"Alright ladies this is it, the War Temple." Jesse said holding the door open.

The trio entered into a rather small room Aubrey thought, "Is this it?"

"Yes, not many congregate inside this room." Jesse replied as he took his seat.

Just then the door opened again and entered Ambassador Wilikin, his assistant, another man who looked like he was just about to die and a few other decorated men dressed like Jesse.

"Alright let's cut to the chase, for we haven't much time to make a plan." The Ambassador Wilikin spoke gesturing for the half dead man to speak. As it turns out, he was the scout the messenger was referring to earlier.

"Asus Farr can be defeated. And I know just how to do it." The scout spoke, although he wasn't very confident sounding Aubrey thought.

"Defeated as in, total domination or?" Jesse asked.

"Well more like one swift blow fatal enough to withdraw them from the planet."

"And how do you expect us to do this?" The Ambassador spoke skeptically.

"They are carrying a bomb large enough to destroy over half of their forces."

Several mumbles broke out, surprised voices and concerned ones filled the room until the Ambassador finally got them under control,

"If what you say is true, how do we retrieve this weapon, and what do we target?"

The scout was shaking nervously so Jesse spoke up, volunteering Aubrey's vast knowledge of Asus Farr,

"Sir! Aubrey here knows all about Asus Farr, she was a ranking officer until she defected to us."

The Ambassador nodded and all eyes were looking to Aubrey for advice,

"Well there is in fact a bomb. Asus Farr protocol states we must carry it to every new world we inhabit. But getting it in our hands is the issue. They keep it locked up in the weapons cruiser."

"Hypothetically speaking, if we get control of the weapon, what would we target?" An officer spoke up.

"The drill." Aubrey spoke confidently. "Without it, they will be forced to evacuate. No drill, means no supplies, and Asus Farr has trekked far out of their territory and is running low on supplies. They would be forced to return home."

Several heads nodded in agreement, liking the idea.

"How do we acquire this bomb?" Jesse asked.

The scout jumped back in, "I overheard the Commander and General discussing a plan to move to the sand fields of Gieseal. They are having trouble extracting their resources, they can't drill through the titanium plates under the forest's. So, they are being forced to move."

Aubrey jumped in brilliantly with an idea, "And the Army has to move with the drill to keep it protected, leaving the Weapon's cruiser lightly guarded!"

For the remainder of the meeting, it was determined on what the plan was going to be. Aubrey and Beca would run ahead to be decoy's so Jesse, who was appointed the new General, would lead the Grand Army to the Bomb and retrieve it.

"I don't like this plan Jesse, it seems too easy." Aubrey spoke in concern. "What am I supposed to do if I encounter someone? Beca can't fight an android! This is useless."

"It's going to be fine Aubrey. All you have to do is look like the natives snooping around the ship. If what you say about their protocol is true, they will be distracted long enough for us to get the upper hand and overwhelm them."

Jesse's words didn't calm her nerves at all. She knew Asus Farr too well, it was never easy. And as she was soon about to find out, her suspicion was right. There was a rat amongst them and they were headed for a trap.

"Kommissar!" Commander Posen snarled gaining the person in question's attention.

"Yes sir!" The Kommissar spit back standing at attention.

"Come with me, I have a gift for you."

The Kommissar did as asked and followed her Commander into an interrogation room where a captured Rebel Scout was waiting.

"Get him to talk." Posen demanded.

"Yes sir." Kommissar replied with her toothy grin as she locked the door.

She approached the frightened little man easily, too calm his jitters, but quickly back handed him, "Speak you scum!"

The man wouldn't talk, so Kommissar kept smacking him until she broke him, "Ok, Ok." He said out of breath, "What do you want."

"Commander, he's ready." Kommissar said sticking her head out the door.

"What are the Rebels planning on doing?" Kommissar asked.

"They aren't planning anything, they are concerned with guarding the city."

"We know about the Grand Army at Felusion Pass. What are they planning. We've already decimated their native warriors and General. We know they have weapons! Tell us what we need to know!" Commander Posen snapped.

"The army is idle at the pass yes. My job is to gather information to determine what to do. Your Scout who defected months ago helped mine minerals to trade for weapons. The Royal City is a cover up for a smuggling ring. Slaves and minerals go out, and weapons and soldiers come in to fight Asus Farr. The Rebellion starts at the Royal City." The scout answered honestly.

"How many soldiers." Posen asked.

"More than 5 thousand at Felusion Pass. Maybe another 4 thousand on stand by in the city."

Commander Posen mulled the information over, considering everything, "Ok, this is the message you will return with…"

Commander Posen sent the scout packing with the information of the bomb and drill move, and knowing that Aubrey would defect to the rebels, he made sure to tell the scout the army was going with it to leave the bomb practically unguarded.

"Commander! We can't leave the bomb unguarded for them to just take?" Kommissar asked confused.

"Ah my protégé, it won't be unguarded. You and your legion with march off with the army and double back around and ambush their Army."

"200 men against and Army of 5,000?" Kommissar asked.

"Is that an issue?" Posen smirked.

"Nope. They better pray for reinforcements."

The trio arrived back to Felusion Pass to spread word of the move. Aubrey and Beca were assigned a tent to themselves to get plenty of rest before their march in the morning.

The arrangement was extremely enjoyable, they had a fire inside the tent to keep them warm! So, Aubrey stripped to her skin and caught Beca peeking as she crawled into bed.

"Well, aren't you gonna join me?" Aubrey said with a laugh.

Beca just stayed put and laid down on the floor. "What is wrong with her?" Aubrey thought, then she saw the problem. Beca had her collar and leash on still.

"Oh, Beca honey." Aubrey climbed off the bed and leaned over and took the leash off and threw it into the fire. "Come here." She demanded.

Beca did as told and climbed up beside Aubrey in the bed. "You are not my slave Beca. The barbaric idea of having slaves makes me sick. I'm so sorry." Aubrey grabbed Beca into a bone crushing hug and laid down with her.

Sometime during the night Aubrey awoke to something pecking at her lips. The now dimply lit tent was making it hard to see the culprit but Aubrey arose and the culprit jumped off and scampered to the other end of the bed. Aubrey laughed as she rose and stoked the fire, bringing the light back into the tent revealing Beca as her culprit.

"Beca were you trying to kiss me?" Aubrey giggled.

Beca looked away in embarrassment and hid her face. "Come over here Beca." Aubrey said patting the warm spot beside her, and Beca did as commanded.

For the next few minutes, Aubrey was trying to instruct Beca on how to kiss. It was a bunch of trial and error, but Beca was getting the hang of it. "You're getting better Beca!" Aubrey cheered, "That was a really good one!"

But Aubrey's hunger was craving more than just Beca's lips, she was debating on going further with the girl, praying that it didn't scare her, because judging by her kissing skills, she's never even been touched anywhere else.

But her hunger was driving her insane and tomorrow could be their last days alive so she wanted to make the most of it,

"Beca look at me." Beca raised her beautiful blue eyes to match the lustful green ones of Aubrey's. Aubrey slowly moved in and started to make out with Beca. She introduced her tongue into the girl's mouth and Beca lurched at the new entry but Aubrey grabbed her head and kept their lips locked.

Her free hand was slowly drifting down to cup Beca's breast. She played with each while she sucked and tugged at Beca's tongue, then quickly moving down to leave her mark on Beca's neck then breast.

Beca was overwhelmed with sensations she never felt before and Aubrey knew it, it kept her hungry for more and that is what she got.

Aubrey moved south below into uncharted territory that was Beca's vagina, "Beca? Do you trust me?" Aubrey asked from between the girl's thighs looking into a crossed-eyed Beca.

The shiver Beca received from Aubrey's hot breath on her spot she urinated from, sent the wildest sensation up her spine and she wanted more, so she nodded. And Aubrey dove in tongue and finger's first."

Aubrey slammed her fingers in and out of Beca while sucking on her clit, Beca went into a completely different state of mind, hips bucking and instinctually grabbing Aubrey's hair for support. It didn't take long for her to come, and she just laid in a pool of bliss, not daring to move.

Aubrey was growing concerned, maybe she killed the girl? "Beca? Beca sweetie are you ok?" Aubrey asked worried.

In a blink of an eye, she was pounced on by the small girl and was being attacked by loving kisses,

Aubrey moaned and giggled, "I guess so."

Beca was fired up now, she jumped below Audrey's waist and wanted to give it a try. She reminded Aubrey of a little kid with a new toy, she was so excited. "Go on Beca, Just, do exactly like I did to you."

Beca didn't hold back and gave Aubrey a pleasurable experience, far better than she thought. It was a bit off pace, and rough at times, and although she didn't come, she had fun, and poor Beca crashed to sleep in exhaustion.
