Twelve: Kill Him

I ignored the soldiers giving me looks, my eyes focused ahead of me. There was only one goal that I wanted. There was only way that I wanted this to end.

"V-Venus?" Parker jumped at hearing the door opened, nervously calling out to me as I shut the door behind me. There was a soft click as I turned the lock. It didn't bother me that it was all glass and see through; in fact, I wanted it to be. I wanted others to see what I had in planned for him. "What are you doing? Why aren't you doing something with the others? Do you want this planet destroyed?"

I knew what he was doing, he was trying to get under my skin. It might have worked in the past... That guilt trip... My hand lowered from the lock, turning back to look at him. Blue green eyes coldly calculated him. "I do... I want my homes saved more then anyone here. I wanted to save my last home more than anyone there."

I mused, turning around to face him fully. One of my fingers traced along the shelf, thumb brushing over the rough texture of the artifact resting decoratively. Most of these artifacts are from my home... Excellent. "But... I thought my best way to protect my home would be to get rid of the head on the snake."

"What the hell are you planning?" I looked back at him, watching the fear beginning to surface in his eyes and seeing the cold sweat beginning to run on his skin. He was starting to get scared of me. Good. "Im doing something I should have done a long time ago."

My palms pressed against the surface of his desk, leaning my weight on my hand as my eyes narrowed at him. He paled as the words sunk in for him while I seemed to smile with an unstable grin. "Something the matter Parker? Why... You almost look guilty. Don't tell me you're nervous, over little me?"

"Venus..." He took a nervous step back, putting the chair between us. Ha... What's a flimsy chair going to do? But I'll amuse him. My body leaned back, away from the desk as I ran my hand over the wooden handle that was set up on decoration. "Y-you didn't answer me!"

"Hmm? Why do you want to know so bad Parker? Are you scared? Don't you remember the warriors on my home?"

"B-but... But you were there! That's the only reason we took you!" My fingers paused over the engravings on the wood; feeling like cold water rushed down back. "You... what?"

"We took you because you were weak! You were easy to order around and we could make you help us with your planet's energy." I lowered my hand, feeling sick to my stomach and clenching onto the wood tighter in my hand. There was no remorse or guilt, that bastard... a they took me because I was easily manipulated, the humans could push me around. Because no one on my planet believed me, I was always at their mercy.

Now I'm even more pissed. The engravings made a small glow before the blade slid out the opening; completing the knife. "Isn't it a shame then Parker. You gave me access to a new body, to a new tribe, and would you even have guessed it... A new fighting style. You gave me the perfect access to the training that I needed."

"No... no... It wasnt supposed to be like this! You- you were supposed to be weak! The perfect puppet! You were supposed to speak those stupid monkey's language and get them do whatever we want!" I laughed cruelly. "You expected me to be some puppet after everything you did? You're way stupider than I had thought."

I scoffed, annoyed with the thought. One of my fingers ran down the blade of the knife as I was sitting on his desk. "Parker... Did you really think that I would go of everything in the past? That I would forget everything you did to me? Just with some fancy new things?"

"Venus-"

"Are you scared?" I asked innocently, tilting my head mockingly while I watched him stumble for an answer. It was easy to see that he didn't recognize the woman standing in front of him; that's not hard. I'm definitely not the scared little girl who just lost everything she knew. No, I have a mission now.
