By all rights she ought to be soaking in the exotic sights and immersingherself in the fascinating alien culture. It was certainly better than the tiny metal cellshe’d been kept in on the Scourge Fathership.The Scourge were a menacing alien race which had come to Earth searching for theone female they believed could mate with their evil overlord, the AllFather. She and shealone would be able to revitalize their race by bearing daughters. Lauren was that femaleand she had been taken and held within their immense ship for weeks.While she was there, however, she’d made a connection with Xairn. The huge alienwith the burning red-on-black eyes was the AllFather’s son, but he had severed his tieswith both his father and his race in order to free Lauren and take her home. Of course,first they had to travel through a wormhole to another galaxy in order to get their DNAmodified which, according to Xairn, was the only way they could go back to Earth safely.Lauren wasn’t thrilled with that but if he said it was necessary, she believed him. Soshe’d been prepared for danger and adventure and excitement…but not for boredom.Because in order to soak up exotic sights and immerse herself in the alien culture, shewould have to leave the small silver Kindred spaceship where Xairn had left her. And theenormous Scourge warrior had made it very,veryclear before he left that she wasn’t todo that. Sighing, Lauren remembered their conversation…“Under no circumstances should you step foot outside the ship,” he told her sternly ashe was about to leave himself.“Why?” Lauren looked out the viewscreen apprehensively. Xairn had landed them ina dark alleyway in a city he’d said was calledO’ahbut she could catch glimpses of thestreet beyond which seemed to be the site of a busy marketplace. “Are the native peopledangerous or hostile?” she asked.“Anyplace is dangerous if you don’t know the language and customs,” he repliedobliquely. “I’ll be back in one of your Earth standard days. Until then, stay in the shipand speak to no one.”“All right,” Lauren agreed. After everything they’d been through together on theFathership and the Scourge home world, she trusted Xairn implicitly to keep her safe.Still… “I know you’re going to find the uh, DNA, guy,” she said, looking up at him. “ButI still don’t understand why I just can’t come with you. Wouldn’t that make it easier—save you a trip? After all, you got me some decent clothes.”She nodded down at the voluminous robe that reminded her of the muumuus herelderly neighbor, Mrs. Goldman, liked to wear back on Earth.
