James' words attracted Dora's attention, who was very surprised by the appearance of this girl with this strange fire. She got neared her as she observed the fire that kept raging around the poor sleepy girl as she muttered:

"This fire resembles the fire of a ritual, she has either been punished or rewarded."

"Or forsaken, banned, or escaped. I don't know where these people come from," James muttered in nervousness.

"Do you say you have more like her with this fire in your ship?" Dora asked with great curiosity.

"Yes, No, no not the fire, I mean I have people who are in deep coma inside my ship," James said as he got the courage to stand near this girl with her fire. Dora looked at him while saying:

"Interesting, the first time I met you, you were escaping, and now you are rescuing, I wonder what you will do next time we meet."

James looked at her as he snorted, then he pointed to this girl as he said:

"I will take her on my ship."

"Why? Didn't you say you have many like her? Let me have piece of the cake, I will take her into my ship," Dora said in a challenging authoritative tone, but that didn't shake James who sent the order to Rigo inside his cruiser:

"Move her now into my ship."

Just as Dora was about to fight on this girl, the girl was engulfed by strange silver blue light then she vanished the same way she appeared here. Dora looked in disbelief towards James, who wasn't feeling any less than her at this moment, but he knew that must be Rigo's doing, and that meant it was his doing.

So, he stood straight with pride faking his enjoyment with Dora' reaction, which turned into a real feeling, as it wasn't easy to impress this bloodthirsty princess.

"Don't stand as an idiot like that, I noticed your first reaction, you didn't think she would disappear like this, so tell me what happened?"

James felt what was like a hot slap over his face to make him return to reality, it was really hard to impress such a cold hearted princess. James took a deep breath as he decided to ignore more speaking about this as he said:

"What's really important right now is to talk about the reason I'm here for."

Dora wasn't taking James seriously, as she said with no interest at all:

"Ah, I recalled your previous mysterious message, tell me from where did you know Edwardo?"

"I didn't," James replied spontaneously while he pointed to his cruiser as he added, "I have a very interesting recording in my ship, do you want to come on board and see it?"

Dora looked at his in doubt before laughing over his words as she said in mockery:

"Honestly this is the worst try I ever faced for someone attempting to get near me, I'm not that nice girl when I become alone with a man, so reconsider your offer very carefully, and stop wasting my damn time and get off my face now."

The last part she said with a threatening tone, but it was strangely calm as she wasn't really caring about James' words or message at all. James expected that, so he decided to use his strongest convincing card in his deck.

"You didn't kill Charles."

Dora's face suddenly changed abruptly as James continued:

"Aren't you curious to know why he didn't die?"

"I'm more curious about how you know he isn't dead," Dora replied with a tone that held no humor like before while looking straight into his eyes. James didn't fret as he knew he won her interest at last, so he said calmly:

"If you want to know the answer, then you should follow me into my cruiser."

"Didn't your mammy warned you about following strangers into secluded places? Go home kid, I don't have time to play with you," Dora said as she acted against James expectations, as she turned to move away towards her cruiser. James didn't let her move single step before whispering:

"Charles is the Immortal you seek."

Just as he said that name, he noticed the whole body of Dora trembled like it was hit by lightning.

Before he could open his mouth to say anything, Dora jumped over him like a cheetah to knock him down and fix his body with her legs while pointing her gun towards his head as she said with a very deep hatred:

"What did you just say?"

James felt real danger coming from this fiery girl, so he rushed to say:

"I have a recording in my ship, just enter the damn cruiser and see it by yourself."

She didn't move an inch for a moment before she stood straight away from his body, but she still pointed out her gun towards his head. James sighed as he moved from the ground and turned to his cruiser as he said:

"I won't offer you again, you either comply and live or refuse and die under the hands of your enemy."

Dora watched him heading back to his ship for a couple of seconds before she made up her mind to follow him. she raised her left wrist to be near her mouth as she activated remote connection with her team here.

"Stay sharp, and be ready to attack at any minute."

"Roger that."

This reply came from the senior officer in her team, who was Anna, one of those who witnessed the death of Charles from before. Dora then moved following James, but she didn't put her gun away, she wasn't yet able to trust him, or to be more clear, she wasn't able to believe him.

The words of James were just like tiny little annoying needles that escaped her notice and now they turned into gigantic spears that were trying to take her life away, that was in condition he wasn't lying, and she hoped he was.

"Welcome on my ship," James said as he sensed her following him into the heart of the cruiser.

"Let's skip the formalities, shall y… what the hell is that?!!"
