BOOK 4
THE VOLAN WARS
CHAPTER 1
THE REUNION
The Alpha and Beta team protectors finished their late lunch and were the last to leave the huge dining hall. Phoenix, Vega, and Arris, who made up Alpha team, and Ursa, Minor and Sirus, who made up Beta team, had spent most of the time catching up and not eating. The others had not seen Arris for almost a year, and it felt good to be together again. Ursa had voiced that feeling for the others when she’d said that the protectors were now complete.
That morning, Arris had returned to Nebula Headquarters from the planet Daedro. She had been helping her Aunt Celeste rebuild the capital, which had been destroyed by an evil general, and establish her rule as queen. Arris had worked for months beside Queen Celeste and had never once wanted the title for herself. But she had still almost been killed a number of times because the general thought she was the last of the line of rulers. Before Arris had returned, she had watched as the queen married Major Flaine, who had subsequently been promoted to General Flaine and now served as leader of Daedro’s newly established army.
Arris had talked through much of the meal, but before she’d begun, she’d questioned Vega on his recovery. He had been badly injured from a rocket blast when fighting the evil general’s army. After Vega had assured Arris that he was back at 100 percent and maybe even better, she’d brought everyone up to date on the happenings on Daedro.
While Arris had been away, Beta team had completed two assignments, and they were now waiting for their next one. Phoenix had been assisting Kent in communications, working with the various teams living at NAHQ on their assignments, and Vega had been recovering from his injuries and working to rebuild his strength.
Vega had admitted that waiting for broken bones and stitches to heal was frustrating. And then there was having to start over at the most basic level of physical exercises to regain his once perfect physic. At the mention of his perfect physic, Vega had received a number of comments from the other protectors. The comradery between the two teams had not changed, and there was a unity that they all felt. They were all willing to risk their lives for each other.
As they left the dining hall, Arris walked between Sirus and Vega; Minor lagged behind, looking at something or someone; and Ursa and Phoenix walked in the front of the group. They passed the common area and came to the escalator that led to their living quarters. The plan was to return to their rooms, change into their workout gear, and spend the afternoon in the gym.
Vega challenged Arris to beat his time on one of the games, and she accepted. He had commented that Arris was out of shape from being treated like royalty on Daedro. She’d wanted to respond that one day of trying to keep up with everything and meeting everyone that was in charge was as challenging as one of Sirus’s workouts, but she’d held back. She would show Vega just how wrong he was.
But before the group ascended the escalator, Ursa suddenly stopped, and Arris almost bumped into her. Ursa was frozen in place, and the look on her face was not happy.
“What is she doing here?” she said in a threatening tone.
The other protectors looked in the direction Ursa was staring and saw Spider entering the transport with someone. It was hard to tell from the distance, but the person seemed to be slightly taller than Spider and extremely fit from the way she carried herself. The uniform she wore was unfamiliar, but the resemblance was clear. From that distance, the woman’s profile, her braided blonde hair, and her manner of walking all looked just like Ursa’s, though this woman looked to be taller, more muscled, and older. Before anyone could ask who she was, Ursa stomped away and jumped onto the escalator. The others had to hurry to keep up with her.
When they reached their level and walked toward their quarters, Vega took his life into his hands and pulled Ursa to a stop. The look she gave him was grim, but Vega dared to ask the question on everyone’s mind.
“Who was that person? She looked a lot like you.” When Ursa didn’t immediately answer, Vega reminded her, “Hey, we’re a team. If something is wrong, we’re here for you.”
Ursa seemed to gain control and shook her head. “I was startled. I had no idea she was coming here. That is Asha, my older sister.”
Everyone was shocked. Ursa had never mentioned her family, except to say that her parents were supportive of her becoming a protector, but then none of them ever spoke of the family they’d left behind, if they had any. From Ursa’s manner, it was very clear that she was not happy to see her older sister at Nebula Headquarters.
During their time in the gym, no one mentioned Ursa’s sister, not wanting to upset her. They felt that when Ursa wanted to discuss the situation, she would. As they all made their way back to their quarters to clean up for a late dinner, Phoenix and Ursa received the same message on their communicators. Tomorrow, after breakfast, the Alpha and Beta teams were to meet in Catella’s office.
Ursa broke the silence as they all read the message. “Well, we know who this meeting concerns. It is no coincidence that Asha is here; something must be happening on Velland.”
“Velland is your home planet, but you don’t seem very concerned,” Minor observed.
Ursa huffed, “When I left Velland, I had hoped to never hear that name again.”
Arris could sense that Ursa did have feelings for her sister and home, just not good ones.
When Ursa left the group and went to her quarters, Minor told the others, “I can hardly wait for tomorrow. The meeting will definitely be interesting.”
“Ursa is a protector team leader,” Phoenix reminded them, “and if this meeting with her sister doesn’t go well, we have to be there to support her.”
Everyone agreed, and then they went to their respective quarters.
When Arris arrived in Catella’s office, she could sense the tension. The table they all sat around seemed crowded, but the only extra person was Ursa’s sister. Spider and Kent sat by Asha, and Catella was at the end. The Alpha and Beta teams sat across from the others. As she sat, Arris felt that Asha had a presence that overshadowed others around her. Even Spider, who generally dominated the room, seemed in second place.
Up close, Asha’s face looked hardened, but it wasn’t because of the scar that ran down one side. Arris stole a glance at Ursa, whose face now mirrored her sister’s. She now understood why Ursa had been pushy and had wanted to be in control when they’d first met at the academy. Growing up under Asha’s dominating shadow, Ursa must have developed those behaviors to be noticed.
After everyone was seated, Catella opened the meeting by introducing Asha. “I want to officially welcome Asha. She commands the soldiers that protect the capital city of Cexion on planet Velland, which is in the Volan Galaxy. This group of elite soldiers is made up of the firstborn women from each household. It is an honor and lifelong commitment to join the Vellanites. Now, the Volan Galaxy is a spiral, and communication and visits are limited by the constant spinning of gaseous vapors. Once inside the galaxy, travel between planets can be achieved by spaceship.
“The planets within Volan have been peaceful up until now, but Asha has brough
