Jas followed that slow careful steps of that person for a couple of segnts before he was sure of his previous guess, that person had put an energy bomb, a small tiny thing that you could miss easily, but it was deadly.
Jas didn't wait any longer, as he pointed his gun towards that person, and moved with audible steps towards him. Jas didn't take a few steps before that person turned sharply and pointed another gun towards him, and strangely it was the sa as Jas, a laser gun.
"Who are you? You don't belong here."
Jas stopped as he recognized the owner of that sound. His eyes widened abruptly as his heartbeat raced with excitation, anger, and fear.
"D-Do you know ?" the person asked with doubt.
Jas gritted his teeth and unknowingly he took a step forward as he declared with extre hatred:
"Of course your excellency, you are the damn Immortal and I'm here to know how you will survive ."
Jas moved the laser gun and pointed it towards that distasteful head, while that person seed to panic as his body trembled obviously while yelling with his hands waving towards Jas:
"No, stop, it's not that deceitful person, look," he then pressed his head covered with that blackness causing the whole suit layering over his body to vanish, "Look, I'm not that Immortal."
Jas just sneered as he wasn't deceived by that move as he said:
"Don't think you can bluff like you did with Dora, Charles. I already know that it's you, the Immortal, and now you are going to die."
"N-N-No, W-W-Wait, it's really , Charles. I was sent to et Dora by one of her masters, but I was ambushed and taken captive by that person. Believe I want to kill that person as much as you want, so I'm now bombing the wh"
He wasn't destined to continue his speech, as Jas hit him with his gun. Charlesn's eyes widened from terror and shock, then his body lost its strength and fell heavily on the ground.
Jas didn't stop in his place, as he moved fast and dragged the body towards the nearest chambers as he opened it and threw that body of Charles there. Jas then closed the door and started to search that young man's body.
That man was planting bombs all over the cruiser, so he must have a trigger to activate all these bombs. Jas didn't search long before he found a small box with a button over its top; it had a central indentation with a small rounded red button in the middle.
Jas had already seen many triggering devices like these back at the world he escaped from, so once he spotted it, he took it and put it into his storage bracelet.
"Now your plan has failed, scher."
Jas kicked that dead body venting his anger and hatred upon it. he didn't want to stay any longer, as the sight of this distasteful enemy was enough to make him lose his temper.
He had far more important things to do right now. Just as he took one step towards that door, a small screen appeared out of nowhere. It was like the screen in his commanding deck, but it was smaller. He squinted his eyes as he didn't feel any goodness coming from this screen, and his instinct was right.
The screen flashed, and the face of a person appeared on it. It was an old lady, elegant as she was, as ti passed on her but left only a soft touch of white hair and minimum shallow grooves on her smooth face.
Jas knew if she hid these wrinkles and dyed her hair, no one would doubt she was this old. Strangely, though, he felt so familiarity coming from her, like he had seen her beautiful face before.
"Daughter"
Once that lady opened up her mouth and spoke, Jas' body jolted from his realization, he knew why this lady seed familiar, and suddenly he slt a stinking scent, a scent of a trap, and that lady was the decoy.
"I-I have been held as a prisoner here by one of your enemies, he called himself the Immortal. He wants you to co back and surrender willingly, but don't co my child, lea"
The mother didn't have the chance to complete her words, as a hand appeared suddenly to hit her face like a whip and push her body away like she was nothing.
Jas' eyes widened in disbelief as his sight moved between the screen in front of him and that body lying motionless on the ground. The face, the sa face of Charles, was the face that appeared on that screen.
He had a face of a youngster, but he wasn't showing any facial expression of a young man, he wasn't showing any human expression at all. He was like a monster wearing human skin.
Jas' body was paralyzed from the train of thoughts he had in his mind, as this was bad, was really bad.
"Listen well, kid, your sweet beloved mother is in my possession. I won't say I will kill her, as such a gem of beauty is hard to co by. If you don't surrender yourself to the commanding deck, then I will enjoy myself without stopping," his distasteful voice ca from that screen, then he moved his face to nearly block the whole vision, "You have thirty minutes only, tick tock, tick tock."
The screen vanished, but Jas didn't recover his composure easily. He looked towards the body lying on the ground as he muttered:
"Luckily I stunned him to lose his consciousness, or else I would be dood."
Jas then moved towards the real Charles and started to wake him up. When he realized he was Charles, he wasn't sure he could kill him, or else he wouldn't get the awkward na, the Immortal, so he chose to stun him instead.
A lost consciousness enemy was as good as being dead, except he was sure this Immortal wouldn't be immune to stun, and now that decision showed it value, as he needed that man to be awake.
Back at his base, he learned a way to undo the stun effect of the guns, as accidents like launching stun hits from the guns happened frequently back then.
The way to undo it was simple, just massage the place of cerebellum and the person would be awake. That place was located at the back of the neck.
In monts, that dead-like body started to show signs of movent, and in less than a minute, Charles opened his eyes. Once he saw Jas, panicked, and tried to move away from him, to hit the weird pink-colored wall hard from his nervousness.
"Take it easy, I an you no harm," Jas tried to reassure him, but he failed, as the youngster in front of him was still looking at him in fear, so he added:
"I know you aren't that Immortal."
"H-How can you t-tell?" Charles stuttered as the last mory he got in his mind was the laser gun in Jas hand launching a strike towards him.
"Because, sigh, that Immortal kidnapped Dora's mother and he broadcasted that to the whole ship," Jas said with a sigh, as he knew Dora wouldn't let her mother face that shaful fate.
"What?!" Charles' body jolted awake as he stood on his legs in a sudden move. This ti, Jas was startled by his move; however he was more shocked by the fear look over his face, a fear more deep than the one he just showed when he woke up.
"What's wrong?" Jas asked with doubt.
