**This a rough story i did many years ago. It's rough but can be a good read if you use your imagination a bit....** This includes four short stories 1. The Big Heist (Story Of Mi'co) 2. Madness of Mi'cio 3.Enemy of Mi'cio 4.Ghost of Mi'cio Here is a scene from part two Madness of Mi'cio: She couldn't see her mom but she followed her voice, she walked toward it. "Mother, what is going on?" she whispered. "Nobody knows." A voice on the right answered. "Something really weird is going on here, Rose. There is something wrong with Webb and his gang of justice dealers." Her father warned. "Beware of them." "Is there anyway I can get you guys out of here?" she whispered. "No. Webb has the only security card that has access to all the prison doors." One of Webb's jailed officers informed her. "Is there anything else I should know?" she whispered. There was silence as each of the prisoners considered. "There is a spare blaster in my room," her father whispered, "keep it with you always, and don't hesitate to use it, Rose." This is a first attempt at writing, check out some of my other stuff ( better writing, I promise) and let me know what you think! Thanks!! :)
Part One: The Big Heist
(Story Of Mi"cio)
The story began, not in a dusty western town as many original
stories claim. No, but in all actuality, it took place on a planet
base known as Mi"cio. Mi"cio was the largest base, with the
meanest, toughest scum in all the galaxy. Nobody ever spoke
of it, let alone think of it without shuddering. Planet base
Mi"cio, in all of its history (which went back well over
years) never was in a battle or war of any kind. Mi"cio kept
itself hidden very carefully from all parts of the galaxy. Moving
frequently, one was never sure where it might be at any given
time. So how is it that this planet base, whom has never been
involved in any questionable behavior, become an object of fear
to all living beings?
One word answer: unknown. In general, living beings
fear what they do not know. The unknown. Mi"cio was
classified as such. Nothing was really known of it, therefore it
was considered dangerous to the greatest degree. All the
stories they had concerning Mi"cio was indeed as titled: a
story. People, over time, invented such tales to keep the fear
in people strong. To prevent them from investigating. A very
dangerous task indeed.
You may wonder what all of this has to do with the story.
If you truly wish to know the story, then you must be patient
and allow me to tell it. First of all-well, let me take you back.
Place: Mi"cio
Time: Many years ago
The Captain of Mi"cio lay in his personal quarters. His
face was ghastly white, eyes closed, he lay very still. 'Perhaps I
am too late.' His commanding officer thought, stress and pain
colored his emotions.
"No, not yet, Dem." White lips gasped.
'Dem' looked down to find the Captain gazing up at him,
making a very serious effort to smile. The words drained him
of his already limited supply of energy. "Captain, everything
has been done per your orders." He reported. He pursed his
lips, "Sir, please, nobody aboard wants you to die. Please
reconsider having the treatment. You have been with us-"
Captain was already shaking his head slowly. With great effort
he spoke, "No, Dem. My time...is now," he gasped, "You have
been...a great crew. Please...ease," he coughed, "your mind."
"But sir, this needn't happen! You can't-" Captain cut him off.
"Dem, don't. I must. You will be... the new Captain...now..."
his voice faded away. His body made harsh jerking
movements. Then he fell back relaxed, his expression cleared,
his face peaceful.
"No. Please God no." Dem whispered. Emotion was too strong
to allow him any volume. "No." his eyes burned with tears
unshed. Tears that never would fall. Dignity and pride
demanded they didn't. Tears may not fall, but that didn't
excuse the deep pain he felt in his heart. It felt like a jagged
knife had been thrust into his heart and twisted. He felt sick
to his stomach. A throat cleared behind him. He didn't move.
"Sir?"
Dem closed his eyes for a moment, willing all emotion to
disappear. When he was in better control he turned. "Report."
The man cleared his throat again, "Sir, members of the crew
are awaiting orders. No one is sure what they are to be doing."
Dem took a few deep breathes before he answered. "Tell the
crew that all are released from duties for the rest of the day.
In respect and commemoration of the Captain's death." He
spoke in a low, clear voice.
Surprise registered on the other's face. "Death, Sir?"
Dem nodded, "Yes, he dies 6 minutes ago. We will have a
dinner in his honor this evening. Dismissed. May you have
peace." He bowed his head.
The man saluted, "Yes, sir." He turned and went back to his
post.
They had the dinner that evening, of course.
Every member of the crew was heartbroken over the
Captain's passing.
Dem assumed position as the new
Captain.
Everything went on quietly for a long time.
All were in a state of mourning.
