While Krolia has been waiting for Keith, she continues scanning on their computer. For a minute, it has started to get quiet. Too quiet. At that point, it has fully hit Krolia. Keith has been gone for a while, she thought. He should be back by now, she sighed as she stood up. I better go check on him and Cosmo. Krolia stood up and started to head towards Cosmo's room.

At Cosmo's room, Krolia has entered the room. "Keith," she spoke. "You've been gone for a while, how's Cosmo?" Krolia waited for a reply, "Keith?" Krolia has started to look around, "Keith, where...?" suddenly, Krolia has found Cosmo. Limped and motionless on the floor. But yet, alive. "Cosmo!!" Krolia ran towards Cosmo.

Cosmo whimpered,

"What happened to you?" Krolia asked,

Cosmo whined in pain,

"Where's Keith?"

Cosmo whined as he tried to move.

"Easy boy," Krolia tries to calm Cosmo down. Suddenly, she saw something shined right next to her eye. Krolia turned and found an object that looked familiar. A blow dart, Krolia thought as she picked it up. Krolia examines the blow dart for a bit, It's lighter than it used to be, Krolia sniffed it. The scent of blood is still fresh; the liquid has been defiantly been used. But not too long ago. All at once, she has suddenly realized something. This could only mean one thing, she held the blow dart tight. Krolia turned on her inner come, "Kolivan come in," she called out, "This is Krolia calling to you from Cosmo's quarters, come in."

"Krolia, I hear you." Kolivan replied, "What's the problem? Why are you in that Cosmic Wolf's Quarter's? And who's doing the scanners?"

"No one is the scanner room,"

"Explain."

Krolia sighed, "I left to check on Keith and Cosmo, but when I got here. Keith is nowhere to be found and something has happened to Cosmo."

"Meaning?"

"I would like to have a request from you to lock down the base,"

"Lock-down base?" Kolivan echoed "What for?"

"I don't have time to explain Kolivan," Krolia nearly growled. "But I believe that we got some intruders here on the base,"

"Intruders?" Kolivan's voice seemed to jump, "How in the name of each different galaxies, how did they get in?"

"I don't know," Krolia replied. "But somehow, one of the intruders somehow hurt Cosmo and used him to lure Keith...and possibly took Keith by surprise. I think,"

"What?!" Kolivan roared,

"No time," Krolia roared back. "Just sound the alarm and look everything down. Now!!"

In the center of the base, the blade members have got the message. They use the control to activate the alarm, and every member are at full alert within the base.

Within the hallways of the base, the intruders hidden within the shadows as Keith who is still unconscious. Sleeping against the wall. All at once, the alarm has started to be sounded all over the base. "Quiznak," the first voice spoke. "The alarm,"

"We've been discovered," the second voice spoke. With the sound of the alarm, it has started to wake Keith from his unconscious state.

"Uh..." Keith begun to open his eyes. Keith tried to move, suddenly, he noticed that he couldn't. He tries to feel what's around his wrists that are behind his back. He can feel the cuffs that the members used for arresting criminals around before, during and after the war. Well, now I know where the missing pair has gone off to. Keith thought as he looks at his ankles. He saw ropes that are wrapped around his ankles tight and could barely budge them. What? Keith struggled for a bit to break free. How did this...?

"We better make it fast," the familiar voice spoke.

That voice, Keith looked up.

"Before we would be found," the first voice spoke.

"Right," the second voice nodded.

"Hey!!" Keith get their attention.

Now Keith's awake. He can now observe what his captors really look like. As Keith looks at them, he saw how they have the structure of a velociraptor. Not just because the legs, they do in fact. Their heads look like demons, skeleton faces. With horns and scales covered all over their bodies. But they have armor at their upper part of their body, their arms, and their legs. They both have sharp yellow eyes and sharp teeth. But he can tell the difference between them, by their color of scales. One green and one red.

As Keith finished observing his captors, he struggles a bit. "The boy," the red intruder spoke. "He's now awake,"

"Yes," the green intruder nodded. "The alarm has awoken him from his sleep,"

Keith growled a bit, "Who and what are you? How did you get into the base? And what do you want with me?" Keith struggled,

"Both of you first and second questions," the green intruder spoke. "They both are none of your concern,"

Well, that's not surprising. Keith thought,

"But," the green intruder spoke as the red intruder walked towards Keith. "Due to the third question of yours, we do not know."

"Huh?" Keith jumped,

"All that we do know is," the green intruder shrugged. "We are a mission and you are part of it.

"What?" Keith raised a brow. Suddenly, the red intruder grabbed Keith and get him up to his bound feet. Keith struggled as the red intruder held onto him. "Uh...let go, let go of me!" Keith growled as he struggled.

"We can't," the red intruder replied.

"Why not?" Keith growled deeply,

"Because you will be bruised up when you fall," the red intruder answered.

"Plus," the green intruder hissed. "You are a package that's needs to be picked up, or so, we have been told. So don't want to bring any harm to you,"

"Me?" Keith raised a brow, "A package? For what? For who?"

"You'll see those answers soon enough,"

"What?"

"Open wide," the red intruder chuckled.

"Huh?" Keith turned his head, suddenly, a thick cloth has shoved into his mouth. Keith nearly coughed a bit as the intruder held the cloth in Keith's mouth and slowly let Keith down to his knees. Then the red intruder swiftly put another cloth over Keith's mouth, he tied it tightly behind Keith head. Keith could barely move his tongue; all he could do is to cough to make a sound.

"There," the red intruder grabbed Keith again and held him as Keith is back up to his bound feet. "That will keep you quiet for a while,"

"Umph," Keith gagged as he struggles. "Mmph hmph!"

"Time is wasting," the green intruder hissed. "We must hurry before the members could come after us,"

"Right," the red intruder nodded. Suddenly, the red intruder let's go of Keith. Keith was about to tumble down to his side, but the green intruder has swoop down and held Keith over one of his shoulders. Keith's mind nearly froze for a moment, suddenly, it has begun to process of what it is happening.

"Rrrmph!" Keith struggled, "Mmm mmph!!"

"Let's go," the green intruder ordered. "We're wasting time,"

"Right," the red intruder nodded. All at once, they all have begun to run very fast.

"Mph?!" Keith nearly jumped as he stares everything is flying pass him and the hall that he knows has become very farther away from him. They're...they can run this fast? But...but can it...? PA-POOOW. A sound has stopped them and saw a burnt spot on the wall.

"Stay right where you are!" a woman shouted at them, then turned to who has shout at them.

That voice, Keith thought. I know hat voice, Keith turned his head and upper body. Trying to look over the shoulder of his captor. In the corner of his left eye, he recognized the figure that is in front of his captor. It is, it's... "Mmmph!!" (Mom!)

Keith, Krolia jumped as her eyes are flashed with rage. So, I was right. Krolia drew her knife. All at once, it has expanded into a blade. "Let him go," Krolia growled as she lifts her blade. "He's not what you want to feed on," having the knowledge of the intruders. They are known as Ca' Raptor Demons, they like to feed on those that has tenderness and maturity of prey that they hunt down. But they never eat or hunt down that those are young and chewy.

"You're right," the green Ca' Raptor replied. "He's not, but we can't let him go."

"Why not?" Krolia growled,

"Because," the red Ca' Raptor replied. "We were told to pick him up,"

"To pick him up," Krolia echoed through her growl. "For what?"

"For that answer, we don't know. But one thing that we do know it that," the green Ca' Raptor spoke as the Red Ca' Raptor stretch his claws to his back pouch. "You're just a delay,"

"What did you just call me?" Krolia was ready to pounce on them,

"You hear me," the green Ca' Raptor chuckled, suddenly, the red Ca' Raptor has pulled out an object that is in his back pouch. Keith saw that, in fear. He tried to lift his upper part again.

"Uuumph!!" he tried to yell through his gag when he tried to warn his mother.

"Too late kid," the red Ca' Raptor spoke as he pulled out a pin. Then he throws it at Krolia,

Krolia jumped and take cover. Within ten ticks later, it exploded right behind her.

"Move!" the green Ca' Raptor ordered.

The red Ca' Raptor nodded, then both Ca' Raptors has started to run.

"Mmmph!" Keith gagged his shout as he stared back to his mother.

"Keith!" Krolia got up, shake the ringing out of her ears and start chasing the Ca' Raptor Demons and Keith.

While Krolia is chasing the Ca' Raptor Demons, she held her gun as she put her knife away. She reached for her inner come as she continues to run. "Kolivan, come in." Krolia called out. "This is Krolia in the West Wing Hall, over."

"Krolia," Kolivan shouted. "What is it? What was that sound of explosion that you are in?"

"That was a grenade that had exploded," Krolia replied. "And the ones who have thrown it is indeed in fact are the Ca' Raptor Demons that are intruders."

"What?!"

"I know," Krolia replied. "But they have Keith held capture and they are heading to the hanger,"

"Let me guess, you want me to lock everything down?"

"Yes, and do it fast. Before they get away,"

"Right," Kolivan replied. Suddenly, another alarm has started to set off as doors has begun to close.

As everything is locking down, the Ca' Raptors swiftly passed every door that are closing very fast. Krolia is following behind, and every door that she swiftly passes. They kept on closing right behind her. Okay, Krolia thought. They are a lot faster than I have first encounter, Remembering one of her missions before having Keith. She once has a faster pace than her fellow members, and she is almost at the same race as the Ca' Raptors themselves. But years has changed, so has she.

Close to the hanger, the Ca' Raptors has finally passed the door before it has fully closed right behind them. "Quiznak!" Krolia growled as she stopped at the door. "Kolivan," she called into her inner come. "The Ca' Raptors have made it to the hanger, I'm going in."

"Are you quiznaking the crackers right out of me?" Kolivan roared in the inner come. "Krolia, you stay right there and wait for back up."

"Negative," Krolia has started to bypass the code to the hanger.

"Krolia, that's an order." Kolivan growl has begun to stir. "Do you understand, Krolia?" he's trying not to bring out the past that both he and Krolia has tried to hard forget about what they both have witnessed.

Krolia clutched her teeth as the door begun to open, "I understand sir, but...I won't let these beasts to take my son. Not until my last breath has been drawn," she took her inner come off her uniform and throw it to the floor. Krolia has started to run down the hall that leads right towards the hanger; where all ships are at bay.

"Krolia?" Kolivan spoke, "Think about what you are doing, Krolia!!"

Down the hall, Krolia clutches her knife tight as her growl increasingly grows within her throat. Hang on Keith, Krolia thought through her pray. I'm coming, she kept on running to stop Ca' Raptors and to save her son.
