《Starship Nyx》Chapter 39: Corruptible governments
Advertisement
Amoca asked us if we were ready to meet the president and we said yes. We followed her to the president's office room. The door closed. A male president sat and waited for us. His bodyguards were professional. We looked at him.
The computer said that the room was bugged. I just understood that someone in the team was on the fiendish side. Two of the bodyguards smiled. They were the traitors.
"Welcome to Luyend, our planet! I am Wouat Zyai," the president said. "By the way, you have to address me as Unada President."
"Thank you, Unada President! I am Captain Mara Tan of United Earth Star Fleet," I said.
"A female koipao?"
"Yes, I am, Unada President."
"We ought to promote the women! Why don't you take your helmets off?"
"We can die from the heat, Unada President."
"So we will fix it."
Wouat nodded. The computer told that the air was clean and mild, so we took our helmets off. Wouat looked at us. We waited.
"You are very different, " Wouat said. "Are you the members of the ally?"
"Yes, our ally is called Symmachia," I said. "It is new, Unada President."
"May we join?"
"No, Unada President. We don't trust in you because we might know that some governments are corruptible. You have to build the undiscriminating, incorruptible and planetary organization first."
"My wife is a biologist. She comes soon."
The xircowes were very quiet. We waited. Amoca explained that there were two more corruptible governments. They were Wiomu City and Egubiw Kingdom. It was tough to tell about them. We understood what they meant.
I asked about the leaders. Wouat knew the Patriarch of Wiomu. They studied at the university together. The Patriarch was warmhearted in the beginning. His behavior changed quickly when he was a voted patriarch. He was extremely cold.
Amoca met the King of Egubiw at the conference room. He had the bad humor. The rumor had that he blamed on his dead wife. I realized that someone blackmailed the leaders. Luary and Gowru ordered their spies to look for the weak sides of the leaders. They were on the spymaster's side.
We spoke about the governments. I observed that Wouat stared at the computer. What did he stare at? I sneaked quickly to his back. He got mass erotic pictures. They looked like he fucked the woman.
I noticed that the pictures were edited. Wouat got blackmailed. He didn't notice that I stood behind him. I clapped softly on him shoulder. He shut the pictures down fast. I shook my head when he was very nervous.
"Unada President, you got blackmailed, didn't?" I asked.
"No, I got the old pictures from the old friends," Wouat said nervously.
The bodyguards stood still.
"Come on! I know about the pictures, Unada President," I said.
"What?" Wouat asked.
"The pictures are new, Unada President."
Wouat realized that he was done. He explained that he met the woman for the friendly relationship. They spoke about the family. I asked Wouat about the woman. Her name was Nimuwaj Uwilon. Wouat firmly said that he never had had sex with her.

Nimuwaj was a famous enyhab. I asked about the enyhab. Wouat showed me for Nimuwaj's picture in his computer. The picture was almost a Bollywood film poster. It looked like Nimuwaj danced with a chubby and tall man in an extraterrestrial mandir. The mandir was a Hindi temple, though the extraterrestrial mandir had mass horns.
Nimuwaj was the main star in the poster. I understood that the word enyhab was an actor. Wouat began to speak about the entertainment law. It said that every crew member had to show the identification card for the entertainment security guards. The false crew members would receive a fine when they would photo the big celebrities or the film location in sneaky. So, it was six thousand boiuns for them.
I asked Wouat if he really knew Nimuwaj. They were the childhood friends. Nimuwaj helped Wouat to be the president. I said to Wouat to be calm and explained that the pictures were edited. He was very surprised. I said to him to ignore the fake blackmailers.
We were quiet. I signaled carefully for the team that two men were enemies. The team was surprised. I got a sick idea. We would get rid of the traitors and the bugs first. What would we do with the traitors?
Amoca surely wondered what we were doing. She let us to do like we wanted. It was time to mess with the traitors. The xircowes seemed very afraid for the ghosts. I hugged Syadu and whispered in her ear to be gone. She nodded slowly.
I whispered later that there were some bugs. Syadu smiled and vanished quickly like a ghost, suddenly the xircowes jumped off. The xircowes wondered what she was for something. I asked the bodyguards if they were afraid for the ghosts. They denied it, but they naturally were afraid. The idiots didn't protect their president.
"What's going on?" Wouat asked.
"Oh yeah! Do you know to the term treason, Unada President?" I asked.
"Yes! I know what the treason is."
"There are two traitors, Unada President."
"What?"
The traitors knew what I spoke about. Udeoa and Demala sneaked to their backs because they would escape. We humans recognized their theatrical tactics. They tried to trick us. I asked the traitors if they worked for the spymaster and the hostile governments. They looked fast at each other.
"Do you have any evidences?" one of the traitors asked.
"Not yet! But you'll see," I said.
We couldn't help but giggle. The moment was slow. I saw some blinks later. It had to be Syadu. She suddenly showed herself up. The xircowes jumped off again.
Like a biologist, Syadu explained simply about the luoars' physiology. The xircowes understood what the luoars were. Syadu swarmed to the traitors. She revealed the bugs for them. They were very shocked. Syadu smiled.
"Here are the evidences," Syadu said.
"They aren't ours," one of the traitors said.
"But if they aren't yours, why are you shocked?"
The traitors were quiet. Their colleagues were forced to arrest them. The security chief ran to them. He asked why the traitors did it. None of them answered. Their colleagues moved them from the room.

"Oh right, do you have an Immensity Stone?" I asked.
"No. Should we xircowes know about the Immensity Stone?" Wouat asked.
I noticed that a red laser pointed at Wouat's forehead. What did it do? I realized that it was the sniper, suddenly I ran to Wouat. The green beam hit through the window glass and missed. I asked Wouat if he was okay and he said yes. What would I do?
The window glass was broken. I asked Wouat to lie still and he nodded. The sniper was very intelligent and proficient. He wasn't done. I said to the xircowes and my team to be still. They nodded.
The laser moved to the other room. I wore the helmet, so I ran to the other room. The room was a kitchen. There was a teen boy. The laser pointed at him, but he looked like Wouat. It meant that the boy was Wouat's son.
The boy ate food. I ran fast to him and then I pushed him to the floor. The beam hit through the window glass and missed. I asked the son to lie still and he nodded. The sniper targeted the family. Why did he target them?
"Where is your mother?" I asked.
"I don't know, but she is probably in the scientific center," the boy said.
"Wait here!"
I crawled fast to the wall. There were many skyscrapers in the city. The sniper was in one of them. Where was he? I saw a flying car. It had to be Wouat's wife's car.
What would the sniper think about? Oh shit, he would snip Wouat's wife! I moved my sniper rifle forward, so I found the real sniper. He almost triggered, suddenly I hit his leg. His leg vanished. I ran to the office room with Wouat's son and then I warned for the bodyguards about the sniper.
The bodyguards moved Wouat and his son to the safe room. I asked about the tallest building. The building was owned by the trillionaire. He hired the children. They were very sharp. It sounded like a child labor.
Amoca told that it was very illegal to use the children in this region. But we humans weren't surprised. I asked about the owner. His name was Luaniy. He was an ex spy. I realized why he did it.
"It isn't strange for the spies to be snipers. I hit Luaniy's leg. It is gone," I said.
"I contact my colleagues," Amoca said.
One of the officers went to us and asked for our help. We were very surprised. I asked about the help. The officer showed the aliens in the photo for us. We recognized the aliens. They were the vepoiws.
The officer asked for our help again. I asked Udeoa if she knew the vepoiws. She didn't know them, although she recognized their tattoos. The tattoo looked like the Axawo or the Death. It said that you would find the blood until you died. Udeoa thought that it was interesting.
"What is the special place for the Axawo?" I asked.
"It always is about the new religious place," Udeoa said. "So, we can look for it."
"Wait now," Amoca said. "Yesterday I saw a new auxso or a temple in Oan Xefo. The auxso would be open today. Oan Xefo is a multicultural metropolis. I will contact the officers."
After a short time, we came to the auxso in Oan Xefo. But it was too late. There were many civilians. We tried to come forward. Amoca contacted the officers. They also tried to reach it.
Oan Xefo reminded us humans of Las Vegas and Bangkok. The auxso almost looked like a Japanese shrine. It had a baby blue gate. We found the five young vepoiws on the auxso's roof. They jumped down fast without any ropes and then they ran to the religious hall. The civilians fearfully left the hall.
We ran in the hall when the two vepoiws tried to close the doors. I beat the vepoiw and Ava kicked the other. They were knocked out. The hall was supremely big and beautiful. There was no furniture without a cult image on the wall. The cult image was a bat winged lynx.
Luckily, the hall was nearly empty. We were very quiet. The vepoiw turned to us, so he was two meters tall or around six feet tall. His muscles were like a saltwater crocodile. He had a blood red skin. His third eye was close because the closed eyes were immature while his eyes were midnight blue.
Udeoa and Ava found the two last vepoiws. The vepoiws ran away and the women ran after them. Why were the criminals always running away? I had to focus on the tall vepoiw.
"My name is Jiunq," the vepoiw said. "I know who you are. You are Mara Tan."
"So you know who I am. Why are you here?" I asked.
"No, we don't have any special motives, but we teach the xircowes in the Axawo. You wouldn't believe in me. It is up to you if you trust me or not. You?"
"We are here to look for the Immensity Stones."
"Immensity Stone? I heard about some cyan or blue from some museum staff, but I don't know about the stones."
"Okay. Are there more than you?"
"Five more. Now you will die, Captain Mara Tan of United Earth Star Fleet."
Jiunq ran to me. I jump kicked his head. He fell back and then I sat on his stomach. I beat his head many times until he was knocked out. He was very big! I didn't understand why the vepoiws were here.
Udeoa and Ava went to me. They thumbed up, so it was over.
