Jas was thinking about another matter while waiting for these few minutes to pass. His mind was busy about his future, where he would go now with his droids.
Destination was important. This part of the universe was already in the pocket of this rciless terases race. That ant the one who would rise to antagonize him would reign with absolute control over this part.
However the universe was vast, very vast for a single race to rule. The space itself was divided into known and unknown regions. The known regions were divided into space sectors, with over one hundred great sectors known to everyone.
Each great sector is subdivided further into dozens of small sectors like the one he was at right now. Even if the terases race beca cocky and controlled all this major sector, there were many other sectors for him to live at.
The only issue was the great distance and the technical complications between the major sectors. These sectors weren't divided according to anyone's whim of thoughts, but based on naturally established barriers.
Crossing these barriers was a nightmare, and that made each major sector almost enclosed upon itself.
Not many could trespass that deadly natural barrier. That made the idea of escaping here more hard to accept, however that made this idea for him more appealing.
If crossing these barriers was that hard, then when he succeeded in crossing them he would be safer, much safer than staying at any small sector here.
"Our fleet has arrived," Rigo suddenly said that to interrupt Jas' thoughts.
"Oh, good," Jas just replied as he was still attached to this dilemma of his.
"Do you want to organize the plan of boarding the large cruiser with them?" Rigo carefully asked as he was still worried of Jas' intense reaction.
Jas turned to him as he waved his hand towards Rigo in a signal to go for it. Rigo started to organize the fleet while Jas returned to his previous issue.
He heard once before about a crew of space pirates, who were very dangerous and risky to deal with, but they were the only group here he heard about their ability to cross the inter-sector barriers.
However to contact them he needed to first assemble great firepower first, and amass huge mass of wealth as they were very expensive as a second.
Dealing with them was like dealing with a ticking bomb, and he wasn't that enthusiastic about dealing with them, but he had no other choice.
If he couldn't find any other way to escape here then he had to look for them. He sighed as his life was getting ssier and harder than before.
"Dora has arrived," Rigo suddenly said.
"Really? How many ships does she bring with her?" Jas asked with a tired tone as he wasn't that optimistic about this girl.
"S- She brought only one cruiser," Rigo replied after a montary pause as he rechecked again so he wouldn't neglect any still to co from the far cruiser.
"What? Didn't you say she brought dozens with her?" Jas turned to look at him with doubt.
"I know, but didn't she promise to fix the situation?" Rigo replied.
"I never mind, this girl hmmm, I didn't expect to stick to her promise after all. Anyway, that is better, no that's best. Contact and organize everything now, we need to enter the large cruiser."
Jas was surprised by her decisive response, as he didn't expect what she did. nonetheless he was grateful, as his plan could now be set in motion.
It never crossed his mind ever that Dora had gathered up all her loyal followers and crowded them into this one big cruise.
Jas didn't stay in his place as he moved while saying:
"Lead the ship away and then follow ."
"Affirmative."
Jas then hurried towards the heart of the little cruiser. He couldn't wait to leave here as fast as possible. Rigo led the cruiser with coordination with Dora's team to dock first inside the large cruiser.
He was followed by others, however once the little cruiser docked successfully, Rigo relayed the new to Jas who didn't wait and opened the docking door of the goods unit and moved out his small cruiser as he said:
"Follow rapidly."
Jas just jumped from the slowly descending door to be shocked with the scene that welcod him. everywhere he looked he spotted many people looking at him with alert and nervousness.
He also noticed the presence of many cruisers here. this large cruiser was bigger than the one he just escaped from, but basically both were like giants to him.
He suddenly realized what Dora did.
'Good move girl, at least you still have so mind and heart to lead your compass,' Jas thought to himself as he just moved few steps before he heard the voice of Rigo inside his ear:
"Supre leader, Dora sent soone to pick you up."
Jas was startled for a mont as he said back:
"Do you know what she intended to do?"
Well, I kind of guessed that," Rigo said with a tone that ant only one thing.
"You are lying," Jas said with a chuckle, "anyway this isn't my business. Stay behind and make sure all of our fleet dock in the next minute please."
"Don't you need to go with you to the commanding deck?" Rigo asked after a montary pause.
"You are needed but after you end your task," Jas replied as he spotted one girl that was the only one moving towards him.
'What is with this girl's weird habits?!' Jas muttered to himself as the girl who was a human reached him and did a military salute, a one he used to do regularly back at the base.
"Are you an imperial soldier?!" Jas imdiately asked with doubt.
"No sir, I was once one of them but old habits die hard," she replied before relaxing herself rapidly, "Sorry, I know how this salute causes problems to people."
She was speaking freely like she knew him, but Jas only replied briefly:
"It's you who will have trouble not us. Anyway, lead towards the commanding deck."
"Follow sir."
This female soldier walked in the sa old military walk of the empire, with slow and short steps, heavy and strong they used to call it.
However for Jas he knew this was because soldiers like this girl had the task of carrying heavy military devices. She wasn't a fighter, just a carrier, soone who could be disposed of easily during battles.
He felt sorry for her, but not too sorry as she got lucky and left that dood regin of the empire.
"This way sir."
Jas was led towards a movable cart that accommodated only for ten people. There was none there except for the two of them. Jas once heard of these royal carts, or the fast express delivery inside so special cruisers.
"This is the main flag ship of the rebel fleet then," he said while he was observing the fast moving walls around him as the cart was moving extrely fast.
Yes sir, this is the Bombardnt cruiser," the female soldier yelled at him as she was sitting in the back.
"Aha," Jas just nodded as he really was oblivious to what that ant. The na of this ship was alien to him, so he didn't know why this soldier was speaking with such pride.
The journey didn't take five minutes until he reached the commanding deck of this large cruiser. Last ti he was in a large cruiser he took hours to just move from section to section, but now it only took five minutes to bring him from the rear to the front.
"Follow sir, through here. Lady Dora is waiting for you inside."
Jas just nodded to her as he entered the large and spacious commanding deck. The deck was full of busy people, however when Jas stepped in he managed to spot Dora in one second.
Every place in this cruiser was full to the prim with people except one large circled area where the most important and vitally crucial steering devices of this large ship.
In the middle of all this empty area, there was only one person standing alone there.
Dora was feeling lonely, but she mostly doubted everyone around her. This feeling was received instantly by Jas, as he understood what she was feeling right now.
However he had no ti to waste here. He needed to direct this ship and escape carrying everyone here towards safety. What would happen next was unknown, and he wasn't stressing over this point right now for unexplainable reasons.
"Hi there, how are you?" Jas greeted her first as she was just watching him crossing all those people and entering her private empty zone.
"I'm feeling ok, thanks for asking. How are you? You seed nervous and worried since the last ti I saw you," Dora said.
Jas just smiled as he said trying not to be rude:
"I'm facing so troubles right now, so let's just skip these details and start to work together on how to escape safely from here."
His words didn't affect Dora much, as she thought he was trying to cover up what he was suffering from, just like her. So she didn't intend to press over this matter, as she was feeling the sa thing as well right now.
"Fine for , just tell what you need and I will do it," Dora said with a big smile that didn't suit her lost eyes and pained face.
