ベラミス Belamis - the fugitve giantess (8)

Chapter 8 The alliance with Dolores

Dolores looked and saw the enemy ships... she frowned.

"Belamis.... and Kugo..." Dolores began, and she took out a control unit, and pressed a button.

The chains and cuffs on Belamis came off.

"Kugo.. take Belamis away, you and your friends run..." Dolores said, "You stay away from this..."

"What ?" Kugo was surprised.

Belamis shook her head, and uttered, "No..."

"Fermalos army's ship out numbered us..." Dolores said, "We must split whilst I fight them with my Interpol ship!"

"Don't be silly!!!" Kugo said.

The ships approached.

"No time for that..." Belamis said. "Kugo....get Medora..to safety..:" Belamis uttered as she leaped up and whistled, signaling Nako to follow her.

Nako growled and transformed to the giant cougar and followed Belamis.

Kugo looked and knew he had to get Medora and Idina to safety first.

"Let me.." Dolores said.

Medora and Idina saw the Interpol ship approaching with Kugo.

"Medora, you and Idina must get away first!" Kugo yelled.

"Where's Belamis ???" Medora asked.

"She's trying to hold back the Fermalos forces..." Kugo said, "I will join her..."

Dolores commanded, "We will escort this craft to a safe place first...and we will join you...  I trust that Belamis will not run away..."

Kugo replied, "Belamis is hopelessly stubborn in keeping her promise..."

Kugo immediately turned his craft around and rushed to join Belamis.

Belamis saw the Fermalos ships closed in, and their guns were aiming at her.

"Have to wait till Medora and others are far away in safety..." Belamis thought.

She turned to Nako, and uttered, "We go ...."

Belamis decided to lure the enemies away first.

"Belamis! Wait for me !!" Kugo came just in time, holding out his Astrolance.

Belamis was glad her lover was by her side - she enjoyed fighting alongside with Kugo a lot. They were good partners...but this time Belamis was in her giantess form, not cyborg form.

Kugo yelled, "Here I come..."

Belamis put her palm in front of Kugo's craft and shook her head.

"Too..near...." Belamis remarked.

Kugo turned and realized that Medora, Idina and Dolores were still nearby.

"Right...we have to drive those bastards away first..." Kugo said.

Belamis nodded. She pointed at two ships and hinted at Kugo.

"I will take on those two..."

Belamis then without a word, led Nako to the other three.

It was going to be a rough battle for the two.

Then Belamis saw the guns glowed - they were armed.

Nako knew what Belamis wanted her to do and so she and Belamis split.

Belamis and Nako dodged the blasts from the guns.

"They are powerful!" Belamis thought. Nako and her were agile and they got closer to the Fermalos ships.

Kugo peered as he began firing Trizer Beam from his Astrolance. He was worried about Belamis.

Belamis landed on one of the enemy's craft and she grabbed a gun and began exerting her muscles.

The gun was bent and shot its energy to other enemy ship.

Kugo yelled, "Bravo!!!"

Nako opened her mouth and short out energy balls to cover Belamis as she wrecked havoc around the Fermalos ships.

Then there's a strong blast of high voltage electricity and it hit Belamis.

Belamis fell off and then the rockets rained down on her, exploding as they hit her.

"Belamis!!!" Kugo turned and use his AstroLance to short out AstroThunder to cover Belamis.

Nako hind leg was hit by a rocket too.

"Gosh.... they are all over Belamis!!" Kugo turned.

Belamis shook her head.

The Fermalos ships were still too near Medora's space craft.

Dolores saw that the couple was in difficult situation.

"Fire the two anti-matter torpedo to those two ships!" Ordered Dolores.

The officers complied and two anti-matter torpedo hit the two ships that were attacking Belamis.

"Good!!!" Kugo cheered.

The firing at Belamis stopped momentarily, and that gave Belamis the chance to hit back.

She leaped onto a ship, and then turn the gun on it to another Fermalos ship and fired!!!

There were explosions.

Dolores saw that Medora's ship was now at a safe distance, so she turned the Interpol ship around and aimed.

"Kugo! You and Belamis get out of the way.... our ship will fire!!" Dolores said.

"Belamis! Let'ts get out of the way!" Kugo yelled.

Belamis nodded. She leaped onto Nako's back and rode the cougar away, alongside with Kugo.

"Captain! We have clear shot!" The officer said.

"Wait... wait until Kugo and Belamis are back..." Dolores said.

Then Belamis turned, she saw three ships of Fermalos were aiming their energy weapons at Dolores.

Belamis roared.

Kugo heard the roar and saw Belamis stopped.

"Belamis!"

Belamis hopped of Nako and signaled the big  cougar to run.

"Belamis!!"

Belamis gathered cosmic energy around her and she growled.

The three ships of Fermalos had their guns charged up.

"No!! Belamis will suffer another..." Medora screamed as she knew.

The Fermalos guns fired out three jets of energy, only to be blocked by Belamis' shield  - which she put up by exerting herself and holding up an energy shield.

"Roooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!"

Kugo, Medora, Idina, Nako and Dolores heard Belamis' loud roar - a cry of a warrior goddess.

The  Fermalos guns three jets of energy and Belamis shield were in a lock-horn battle.

Kugo cried, "Belamis!" He steered his Star Probe and rushed to her.

Idina cried, "Belamis will have another Avicci!!"

Sure enough, the strong energy guns depleted a lot of Belamis' energy, and the Avicci struck.

Belamis roared.

"Belamis!!" Kugo knew she was in great pain, and he raised his Astrolance, threw it like a spear and struck one of the ships.

Dolores shouted, "Aim the torpedoes at the ships! Fire!"

The torpedoes hit another two Fermalos ships.

Immediately the energy jets stopped.

Belamis dropped her arms and shook. She was in great pain.

Then a ball of light came and engulfed Belamis.

"Ed..nan...?"


"Tough girl.... just cannot leave you like this!" It was the Master of the Teardrop of Hope.

Belamis' chest opened, the Teardrop of Hope came out and glowed.

"Easy...."  The Master of the Teardrop of Hope said.

Belamis breathed heavily...and the Teardrop of Hope on her chest received energy from the Master.

Belamis felt the pain gone and she got up and roared.

"You go ....girl!!" The  Master of the Teardrop of Hope said.

"EM...hurricane!!!" Belamis yelled, and she shot out a blast and destroyed all the Fermalos ships.

Medora and Idina cheered.

"Wooooooooooooooowwwwww!!" Kugo was thrilled.

Belamis turned and smiled, and Nako joined her.

The company stayed at a planet - Kugo, Belamis, Medora, Idina, Dolores, Nako and Ednan.

"What are we going to do ? Constantine will have other dirty tricks to harm Belamis ?" Medora said.

Kugo looked at Dolores.

"Constantine knows I were under Belamis' command before... She will no longer trust me.." Dolores said.

"That's why she lured you here to kill you..." Kugo said.

"That will be a problem.." Ednan said.

The others turned.

Belamis then uttered..."Have to...return.."

Belamis could not talk well in her giantess form, so she used her telepathy and said to Medora, "If Dolores returned without me, she will fail her mission and be punished. If she escaped, the Galaxy Union will be after her.. and the ship's crew..."

Medora repeated it to all.

"Belamis has this idea..." Medora told everyone.

Kugo looked at her, Belamis nodded.

Medora, Idina and Ednan looked at Belamis and Dolores.

"The tough girl has a point... it might be worth it for her to take a chance..." Ednan said.

"Then..I am counting on you..for that.." Dolores said.

Kugo said, "We will do anything to help you..."

Belamis uttered, "Dolores..."

The company knew Dolores would be harmed by Constantine, and decided to help.

Meanwhile, Constantine had not heard from Dolores.

"No news... she should have been killed..." Constantine thought.

"Plan B..." Constantine said to herself.

"Bring me Captain Katrina...." Constantine ordered an officer.

Soon another woman officer came through the door.

A taller, blonde and green eyed woman officer, about the same age as Belamis stood, and she saluted Constantine.

"This is a brilliant chance for you to further your career...and grasp power..." Constantine said.


"And...to revenge for my people ..." Katrina said coldly.

"Be patient... Belamis is also responsible for the death of my best friend... " Constantine took out a badge, on it was a photograph.

"My father and brothers.... nearly got her!" Katrina said, with hate burning in her eyes.

"That Dolores woman... she was Belamis' people!"

"She will come to us..." Constantine said.

The company made the decision.

Ednan, Medora, Idina, Nako and Kugo rode the spacecraft and headed out first.

Kugo stood on Belamis palm before leaving, "Belamis, I will meet you back there..."

Kugo was not happy, but he knew Belamis' heart. He and Belamis were both chivalrous warriors and knew aside from their love, they had to help others with their powers.

Belamis gently kissed Kugo.

"Aw... I feel like I am the frog..."

"Frog...???" Belamis did not know about the frog prince story.

"Never mind... I love you..." Kugo smiled.
 
Belamis nodded, and Kugo waved to her as he departed with the spacecraft.

Belamis stayed with Dolores.

"Belamis..." Dolores looked at Belamis.

"We..go..back.." Belamis said.

"Belamis... Constantine know..." Dolores.

"Not Constantine..." Belamis uttered.

Belamis' telepathy was not of any use with Dolores, they had to rely on their mutual trust and understanding.

"What ?" Dolores.

Belamis pointed to the debris of the wrecked Fermalos ships.

"You... are ....not..."

Belamis was silent.

Dolores said, "It seems... we need not only your powers... but also your mind... well, after all you are the Admiral Major of Galaxy Union..." Dolores said.

Dolores knew. Belamis did not become the Chief Captain of both Lacets Legion and Guima Legion - Belamis had in her the mind and wits of a true commander.

"It will be a challenge to work with you.... " Dolores said.

Belamis smiled, then she reached out her arms, and said, "Cuff me..."

"Yes.." Dolores knew Belamis had her ideas.

The cuffs and chains went back on Belamis.

The Interpol ship started, and Dolores sat on her command seat.

Before long, Constantine called.

"Lieutenant..." Dolores saluted.

"So .. how does it go for my task I asked you of ?" Consantine asked.

"I finished it... that's the package you ask me to retrieve..." Dolores replied calmly, and she made sure that Belamis heard it.

Belamis was pulled along and she was listening, trying to pick up any hints in Constantine's voice.

Constantine was annoyed and she concealed her dissatisfaction.

Dolores could smell that Constantine was not happy, but she kept her straight face, and added, "I will deliver Belamis to the high security facility in ...another 3 days..."

Belamis was impressed, "Dolores was really a cool-headed officer..."

"Dolores, I am sending another capable person to help you..." Constantine said.

"I can handle things here" Dolores replied.

"No.. I am not saying you cannot handle things.. but  there are a lot to do.. Katrina is to help you!" Constantine smiled.

Katrina appeared and said, "I will keep that Belamis at bay!"

Dolores  saw her and knew this person was not easy at all.

Belamis heard the voice, and gasped, "Why am I finding this voice familiar again!!???"

Dolores knew she could not say no to Constantine, and so she saluted, and replied, "Thank you!"

The communication ended.

Dolores knew Belamis had super hearing, so she got back to her seat.

"Belamis... if you can hear me... stroke your hair with your left hand!" Dolores said. This was the protocol Belamis told Dolores to follow before talking to her.

Belamis stroked her hair with her left hand, but not looking at Dolores. Dolores saw that.

"Belamis, Constantine is sending another officer... that doesn't sound good!" Dolores said.

"Belamis, I will try to trick her around...."

Belamis tugged a chain with her right hand, an indication of "Yes".

"Belamis, when she arrived.... she might...mistreat you ..." Dolores said.

Belamis tugged the chain again.

In just less than a day, Katrina was at the Interpol ship as she travelled by warp. The Interpol ship could have use warp, but as the ship was larger, the warp journey was hazardous with all the Fermalos around that could wreck the wormholes if they were not careful.

Dolores saluted Katrina.

"Quit the BS... Show me Belamis..." Katrina said.

Dolores led Katrina to the deck, where they could see Belamis.

"Wow... she's a bit too comfortable out there, don't you think so ?" Katrina said.

"She is after all, a Galaxy Union officer. I cannot mistreat her. Besides out here isn't really that cozy." Dolores replied.

"Oh..I see.." Katrina smiled and she walked to the edge of the deck.

Belamis looked at her, and wondered, "She looks really as if she hates me to my bones... but who is she ???"

Katrina pulled out her large whip and lashed at Belamis.

Belamis clutched her teeth as that whip hit her and blasted her with high energy EM shocks.

"No!!! You cannot do this!! Torturing a captured prisoner is against the laws!" Dolores shouted.

"How dare you lecture me ?" Katrina said.

Dolores put her hand on her pistol.

"If you ever want to be stationed at .." Katrina said.

Dolores face twitched. "Alfred..." Her heart ached.

Katrina then kept whipping Belamis for another 20 minutes.

Then the two went inside the ship.

Dolores fought really hard not to show her emotions.

She retreated to her own sleeping quarters.

"Belamis... I am sorry..." Dolores said, hoping Belamis could hear her. She peaked out the window.

There Belamis was wearing a calm face.

Dolores knew Belamis understood.

"I have to keep my cool..." Dolores thought.

She now regarded Belamis as her quasi commander now - Belamis told her to try and find out what Constantine was up to.

Dolores remembered what Medora told her, the message from Belamis: Belamis cannot talk, and she said whatever happened, you stay calm and find out more. Belamis can hear you talk, and she know you are a fine officer and have good judgements.

Dolores took a deep breath, and felt a deep gratitude for the trust level Belamis had on her.

"No wonder you are such a fine commander..." Dolores thought.

She saw Belamis through the window - Belamis again stroked her hair - a sign that she appreciated Dolores.

"Who is this Katrina ??" Dolores wondered. That name was unfamiliar to her.

"I have to find out... and tell Belamis.." Dolores thought.

It was late ... everyone were supposed to be sleeping.

Dolores went to the main command room to access the computer. It was only by this way could she find out about Katrina.

Dolores was quiet and quick, and she accessed the computer, keying in the query as quick as she could.


Dolores read the information appearing on the screen, "Good heavens...."

The Dolores felt a pistol point to her head.
