The spawn of the stars

Space pirate au

(If Arkov had siblings)

Chapter 2: the pick up

There had been many times during Yargwin's role of captain where the crew had simultaneously asked "WHAT!?"

But Yargwin still had never gotten used to it.

"Yes!"

The caller exclaimed.

"Lry set a course for the dwarf planet their ship is on"

Yargwin's tone seemed more sturn than usual.

Lry told himself that It was most likely due to the....less than unsavoury comments that the caller had been subjecting his paradise to.

"Y-yes captain"

"See you soon~"

The caller hung up on them.

Arkov sighed as she placed her head in her hands.

She then walked over to where Yargwin was standing.

"Yargwin, I love you but why do you say things?"

He chuckled softly at this.

He loved how blunt she always was.

"Look, it doesn't take a genius to see that you and your....sibling don't get along, but you deserve to know what's in your file and you mum's will"

This made Arkov stop and think for a moment.

She had never considered that there might be more to what this hybrid body of her's could do and everyone just kinda assumed that the will was lost, so begrudgingly,

Arkov prepared herself to introduce her....family to her new found friends.

She went back to sit with Kalomos while she waited for the Hercules to land.

It soon became apparent to Arkov that everyone wanted an explanation, but no one was speaking up about it.

Until kalomos finally broke the ice.

"Soooo.....that's you're sibling?...you...have siblings...?"

Arkov sighed. This was going to be a long trip.

"Yes, more specifically, that was my brother, Oedipus"

"I didn't even know you HAD a brother"

"Well actually I have two"

This shocked Kalomos even further.

Arkov continued.

"Two brothers and one sister, you'll most likely meet them all when we go down there to help them, I'll introduce you"

This did excite Kalomos, but he had a feeling that he was about to step into some sensitive territory.

But the curiosity of him and the crew was becoming to much to bare.

"You....dont seem to get along that well"

Silence.

He tried again, now taking a much more direct approach.

"Is that why you've never mentioned them before?"

Before Arkov was given the chance to answer, an announcement came through the speakers.

It was Lry.

"We've arrived, may Arkov and Yargwin prepare leave the ship".

A few minutes prior with Yargwin and Lry:

Lry was following Yargwin, almost frantically, asking him the age old question,

"Are you sure this is a good idea captain?"

Yargwin, keeping his gase forward but still responded.

"Arkov deserves to have the information they're keeping from her, Lry, and besides,

I didn't appreciate the way he was treating her back there..."

In all honesty, Yargwin didn't know where he was going, he just needed to do something productive with the anger brewing up inside him.

They where supposedly her family, her sibling, why would they!-

He stopped his train of thought and took a deep breath.

Lry was going to press on but he could see that this was going to be one of those situations where there was no changing his mind.

The truth was that Lry knows pretty much everything that needs to be known about Dr Sosha's experiments.

Needless to say, he will carry out this 'rescue' with caution.

Once he had left Yargwin to his own divises, he began to communicate his brother, Vail.

"Im sorry Yargwin, I know these people are important to your paradise, but this is for the best..."

Back with Arkov on the Dwarf planet:

Yargwin and Arkov were the only ones to leave the ship to retrieve the hybrids.

Lry had initially planned on going but he had told Yargwin he had "somthing important to attend to"

The ship had definitely seen better days.

Arkov approached the ship and as she did, the ruble began to move.

The rustling got louder and louder.

Yargwin stepped closer to Arkov and that's when he burst from the recharge.

Oedipus.

Oedipus was a tall and fairly lanky man with deep blue, long hair.

On top of that hair was a pair of long, ram-like horns.

Much like Arkov's but where Arkov's curved backwards, his went upwards.

He wore a leather trench coat, with no shirt and puffy, black pants.

Exept one pant leg was longer than the other, with the shorter one revealing a cybernetic leg.

It took a little longer for Yargwin to notice the tail...

He looked exhausted.

Despite this, he still addressed Arkov with the same casual tone he did back on the call they had at the ship.

"What's up Arkov?"

She was slightly taken aback by this question but that was only due to the fact that he looked terrible after bursting through the broken ship.

"I-im fine...?"

He smiled.

"Well of course you are, you didn't just crawl through a shit tone of metal and rubble!"

Arkov huffed.

"Yeah well you owe me one now"

"Well, technically I owe your captain since HE'S the one who agreed to help us~"

That smile had turned into a shit-eating grin.

Arkov tried her hardestto protray a scowl.

"Oh by the way Abadon is currently getting crushed by the wing of the ship so maybe you wanna go help him"

As he said this, he brushed himself off from the damage the recharge had caused to his jacket and pants.

"Abaddons here!?"

Before he could give an answer, she went sprinting in the general direction of where Oedipus had gestured to.

After moving some metal to one side, she could see her aforementioned brother, Abadon.

He was scratching and hissing desperately at the ground.

His legs where underneath the wing of the dismembered ship.

"Aby..."

Arkov had tried to show as much visual worry as she could but then she remembered that the struggle to express emotions was something her and her brother shared.

She jumped down and began to pull on his arms.

He repeatedly said "Ow" In a fairly monotone voice however as she pulled, he got louder and louder each time.

After a couple seconds of this, Arkov sensed somone standing beside her, it was Yargwin.

He began lifting up the metal wing that had him trapped

Eventually giving him enough room to get out.

Once he was free, Arkov moved him into a position that made it easier to pick him up and put him on her back.

She turned to Yargwin as Oedipus approached the group.

"Thank you"

Yargwin smiled softly.

Abadon rested his head on top of Arkov's and began to address Oedipus.

"You prick, why didn't you help me?"

He sounded exhausted, but the anger made its way through his voice, which Arkov found a little alarming, he was never really one to show any emotion with his voice, let alone anger.

He must have been stuck for a while, that or he's in a lot of pain, thought Arkov.

Upon seeing all three hybrids together, Yargwin was beginning to see the resemblance.

Oedipus looked offended, but it didn't take a genius to see he was overselling it.

"Hey I was being crushed Too! Not everything's about you, Aby"

Yargwin began to wonder if he treated all his siblings like this and not just Arkov.

Abadon huffed and nestled his head into Arkov's hair.

She began to make her way back to the ship.

Yargwin followed on.

Once he was beside Arkov, he began talking to Abadon

"Let's get you into medical"

Arkov could feel her brothers breath in her hair as he sighed before replying to him.

"That would be nice"

Before they made their way onto the ship, Arkov stopped suddenly as if somthing had shocked her.

"Wait! Where's Electra?"

Oedipus scoffed.

"Please, you really think she'd let me live after crashing her ship? Besides if she was here don't you think SHE would have been the one to send the distress call? Nah she's back on shornatis"

Arkov sighed, Yargwin couldn't tell if it was out of relief or out of exhaustion.

In any case, once that mystery was cleared up, at least for Arkov, they continued retreating to the safety of the ship.

As they did so, Oedipus saw something out of the corner of his unnervingly sharp eye

Arkov and Yargwin were holding hands.

While alters have their unique powers, hybrids have a number of tricks up their sleeves, however luckily for everyone present, mind reading wasn't one of them, because if it was, about a 3rd of this group would be able to clearly hear Oedipus scream

"Oh F*K NO!"

YOUR TELLLING ME MY THEORY OF GIENNE BEING EVIL TOO WASNT COMPLETELY WRONG?!

This may be a weird question but since you’ve answered how makkaro would react to gienne’s death how would gienne’s reaction be?

Well, this might come as a surprise to you, but she wouldn't have a reaction because she'd be dead.

Okay, dad joke over lol

If Gienne were to die, Mak's reaction could vary depending on at what stage of corruption he's at. If Goenne were to die now, he'd probably go all out. This might lead to him revealing his hand early in the conflict and getting captured or killed by the military might of Scimitaria or Manasia.

Alternatively, he could become severely depressed if she died early on and hide away until either he dies too or falls under Cataclysm's influence.

There is the possibility of him coming quering the world too, of course, but at the end he's all alone and surrounded by the dead remnants of his once best friend.
