"What do you mean, you lost her?" demanded Jun Li as soon as Ye'tab had contacted him. "How hard is it to keep track of a female that is half of your size?!?"
"The Istar came down through the ceiling and grabbed her before disappearing," said Da'kea through gritted teeth. The AI wasn't wrong. It should have been impossible for something to sneak up on the five of them.
"Hold on, I'll find her," grumbled Jun Li before the link went quiet.
"What do we do?" asked Tha'juen, looking around at the other males.
"We find her," sneered Midnight before letting out a long howl of rage. "And then we rip this queen limb from limb and bathe in her blood."
"It's acidic, remember," pointed out Au'dtair, rolling his eyes.
"Fuck off," growled Midnight. He could feel the same rage that he felt when the three Saalistaja first boarded Jun Li, only this time was a hundred times worse. It was like every nerve was both on fire and frozen inside of him.
