Laying in bed he sighs, "They haven't even woke up yet..." But he stiffened when one of the pups woke up for a moment. He waited for more time to pass which it fell back to sleep. 

When Saff came back asked the question if had friends he looked at her as if someone was going to hurt him, "I don't really have friends... You might not at all like this. My friends are liches and shadow haunts... They're supposed to protect me."

Then there was knocking on the outside of Sapphire's ship. Someone far taller and larger than Danihg was standing outside then followed up by two others.

Sapphire watched as they slept and he answered her question. Not what she expected but she was use to it by now. Than there was a nock on the door. "I'll be back." she said as she left. she opened the hatch and walked out. Her face was neutral and with out expression. They waved as she steeped off her ship. She waved back.

The one in the middle attempted to speak english witch made her smile. he tried to welcome her to the planet. She answered in there native tong witch shocked them. Told them thanks and they invited her to play some type of game she had never herd of. she told them that she had new born pups and there mom to attend to. they went on her ship and quickly found scorp. she fallowed though she did not like so many people on her ship at a time. them being ordriey only made her not like it more.

Danihg perked his ears up in surprise. He was instantly surrounded by others of his kind who were excited and adoring the pups who had woken up. At first he didn't know what to do but he lied down on his side and began to feed his pups. "Uh you guys can stop crowding me please?"

The ordrieys that stood around him began talking to him in their native tongue about who is the other parent of the pups. After a while an ordriey with blue hair came up from behind Saff asking her if she would like to have some soda, "Hey would you like some of our soda? It tastes great! Surely I would think!" Then after he was done the female ordriey who had pink hair waved to her, "I wonder if you would like to play a game of Don't Let The Xiopa Eat? It's a fun game." 

One of them was a silent but soon spoke up, "There's some delicious food you could try out." He sets out a basket of food in front of him. It was of variety of different kinds of vegetables and fungus. This ordriey looked more different having a long neck and green hair and very dark eyes that were nearly lost in the facial markings.

Sapphire watched as they adored the pups. she had her arms crossed and leaned agent the wall. than the soda was offered. she took one and looked at scorp how only nodded once with a smile on his face. she unscrewed the cap and started to take a sip. the blue ordriey watched with delight. She sipped it. It had a watermelon smell and the fizz was backwards. She liked it and drank all it in a few minutes. The gas came out the wrong end with a loud noise and her face turned red as everyone started laughing.

Sapphire declined the game tell everyone started begging her to play. She decided she would watch as long as scorp was ok with the pups. "So what is a Xiopa? and how does this game go?"

Danihg continued to smile and giggle after the noise, "I don't think you would want to play the game Saff. It's dangerous to play..." The others ordrieys looked at him like he had just killed the fun which he shrugged his shoulders. The pups were still being nursed and he kept them close to himself watching the green haired ordriey who was very silent.

"In the game you have to tie a rope to yourself with meat tied to the end and get the Xiopa to chase you. If the Xiopa gets you it eats you. So the animal is a large carnivorous creature that is armored on it's body. Don't let it get you." The ordrieys smiled except for Danihg who frowned and kept shaking his head no don't do it.

"Hey how'd you like the soda? Hope you liked it!" The female ordriey seemed to be excited and curious for the answer.

"Ill pas on the game. the soda was good though i could have been warned of the after effects." she eyed Scorp. than smiled. Than remembered her food simply was low and the fact that she should leave before she is tracked. she switched to english and started talking to scorp. "I still need to restock and you need a place to stay. and I am not to found of your kind." the others watched as she talked than she switched back to there tong. "I had fun but my time is short. I cant stay on this planet for more than a few days." 

The pups were finally finished being nursed and stared out in curiosity. Danihg's ears perked up and his eyes lit up in excitement when there was a sudden draft of cold air in the ship. He didn't too happy, "You aren't fond of my kind? Why? I do understand that you need to go but why don't you like my kind?" 

The other ordrieys responded to her, "Aawwwww... You have to go so soon? We didn't get to have a party yet..." Danihg sat up looking at Saff and behind her and waved smiling, "Hi there Golka."

The response behind Saff was almost a soft hiss, "As what do you have here?" A tall 16 foot tall black lich loomed over Saff not paying any attention. It's only focus was on Danihg and the pups, "I would assume you have yet to name them?" This lich had small horns and glowing green eyes. It stared at the other ordriey who just stiffened up and ran outside screaming in terror. Golka put his head down grinding his teeth in irritation.

"I do not dislike your kind just know very little about them." She switched tongs "Party? I would love to come but need to stalk my ship first than i can" She said as the ordrieys backed out of the room than ran off the ship. Scorp said hi to something behind her. she jumped at the voice and turned. Seeing that a lich stood there she backed up as she grabbed her staff and pressed the button making it full length. her back hit the wall and she stopped ready to fight. Than the fact Scorp said hi threw her off. "You know him?" She did not take her eyes from the lich as she spoke nor did she lower her staff. 

She had a ruff encounter as a kid with a lich and has not trusted them since. His threats and attempts to kill her still giving her the occasional nightmares. She was not going to let her guard down at all. she suppressed her past as she awaited a response.

Danihg nodded, "I understand... I got the impression that you didn't like them..." When Sapphire had backed up with her staff pointed out seemingly ready to fight. Danihg started to get up and quickly responded to her, "Yes I know him. His name's Golka Nigach. He helped raise me when I just a pup. All of the black lich have. The common lich terrify me..."

The lich that had stood behind her turned to look at her with it's jaw dropping slightly as if it was actually threatened. It never took an eye off of Sapphire as it walked up to Dan, "She wont hunt try to kill to kill me will she?" Danihg smiled ans chuckled, "No she wont I don't think? Saff you wont will you?" 

He seemed to start to panic and got up. He hugged the lich looking to Saff hoping that she had not any intention on harming someone he considered family. Golka clacked his teeth, "Oh you wretch stay away from me!" It directed this towards Saff and fear in it's voice could be heard.

"Like kind makes a difference." She said to scorp as she watched the lich walk over to the pups and Him. It asked a question that she least expected in a tone she thought they lacked. He was scared of her like she could do any thing to him. Than scorp got up and hugged him. She contracted her staff, placed it on her belt and sat down. It than said to stay away. 


"I do not understand. his kind, lich, are the monsters not me. they had tried to kill me many times and haunted me tell my dad died. How is he scared of me. How could one be friendly or not try to kill or haunt." she crossed her arms over her legs and barred her face.

Danihg whispered something into Golka's ear. The black lich looked to her and seemed to somewhat have become more bold. It again spoke to her in a soft hiss a green mist spilling out from the mouth, "I do not have any intentions of harming anyone... I am a part of Danihg's family and we hold each other very dearly. The children are far more precious." 

It left Danihg's hug and began to approach Saff, "I hope you and I could be friends and not enemies. It would break my soul and I apologize for calling you a wretch." 

Danihg suddenly spoke up, "Please I don't think that's going to work. Just let me do the talking. She doesn't seem to be comfortable with you around. Just look at yourself do you think anyone would trust you at first glance? I don't think so! So just back off and give her space..." 

The black lich hissed at the ordriey loudly, "NO ONE TELLS ME WHAT TO DO!" The black lich's eyes glowed fiercely for only a few seconds before calming down and reaching out. It tried to hug her, "Forgive me for the moment... Will you human?"

The yelling startled the newborns causing to start crying which Danihg immediately tended to them. He picked them up gently, "Ssshhh it's alright Golka didn't mean to. He was just being a bit dramatic like usual."

She looked up at Golka. She stood up as she lessened to him. "Fine ill forgive you. Just no hugs," She could stand him in the room but she was not ready for a hug. She walked over to scorp and took one of the pups. She took the black one and started rocking it in her arms. The pups stopped crying and she looked at the lich. "So your hear for scorp and the pups?" she said.

The pup had grabbed her finger and she smiled. "Anything happens to them I will come for you, Golka." She was serious but she smiled lessening the threat a bit.
