Capítulo 5: CHAPTER 5: IT IS STRANGE

Alita spent the weekend with her wife and daughter and bid them farewell as she made her way to Greitos where she was going to meet up with the crew. This time she was going to be more careful and make sure that she won't let down the family that depends on her.

When Alita arrived in Greitos, the capital city of the ten stars that surround Reqox, she felt as if she was home. Greitos was very big and it was a place one could find exotic stuff one couldn't find in their small stars.

This was the center where everyone will come to exchange what they want for what they had.

The place was bustling with a lot of activity and Alita had missed seeing this a lot. As she was busy looking around, her optical computer rang and she answered the phone call with a smile.

"I am here, where are you?" a female voice sounded on the other side and Alita could hear the other's enthusiasm.

"I am standing...…." Alita told the other where she was before hanging up.

Alita didn't wait for long before a white car parked in front of her. Alita didn't wait for the other to open the door for her and opened it for herself and sat inside.

Alita looked at the mature woman sitting in the driver's seat she had not seen in a very long time, "you look more beautiful."

The woman flashed a shy smile at Alita, "I am glad that you see that. How long will you be here for?"

"I am leaving tomorrow but will definitely play with you when I return," Alita spoke in a coaxing tone.

Even though the woman knew that she won't be able to see Alita for a long time, she was happy to see that the other remembers that she was there.

"Okay, since you are here now, how about you spend some quality time with me?" the woman asked flirtatiously.

Alita was someone who loves the company of women and gers. She wasn't picky at all and since she was going to spend God knows how much time where she was going, she didn't mind drowning in some passion.

"Then what are you waiting for?"

The woman was happy that Alita agreed and quickly drove back to her huge villa. Alita always admires this villa whenever she was here, this house was just so awesome and anyone could tell just how rich this woman was. And this woman belongs to her, how can Alita not be proud of this?

Alita was generous when it comes to her women so since the lady asked for it, Alita showed her prowess and left the lady begging for mercy but since Alita was going to be leaving the next day, she didn't show any mercy and ate the other clean.

When Alita left the villa in the morning, she kissed the lady on her alluring lips and left without looking back. There was a time for everything and as much as she wanted to bury herself deep in that lady who happened to be her rich mistress or her wife, work comes first.

When the woman woke up and found only a note, she smiled wryly but this is what she asked for in the beginning so she had to get used to it.

Alita joined the crew she was going with and since they knew each other, the crew was very harmonious. It took the crew over two weeks to reach their destination as this star was a bit far.

They were lucky that they didn't meet any pirates otherwise they will be doomed. When they arrived on this unexplored star, they found other teams there and this wasn't something new. After setting their camps, the crew was ready to rock and roll.

The gang usually move in groups of two or more but sometimes it was also nice to explore places alone. After all any findings one finds this time, solely belong to the owner.

Alita also wanted to be lucky so she explored by herself but didn't dare to explore further when it was getting dark. After exploring for one week, Alita was very unlucky and didn't find anything much of value.

The energy stones she found were very common and could be sold for a bargain and the money wasn't enough to cover the transport costs she incurred to come to this star.

Alita didn't know what to think of this anymore. After finally giving herself the courage to come and give it a try, she was going to fail once more!

Alita was just tired of not getting anything, so she found a rock to sit on as she looked at the expanse forest in front of her. This place wasn't that dangerous and there were no dangerous animals that could make her cower, so she was safe.

As she was seated on the rock, something weird started happening to her. her hand began to burn up so badly she yelled in agony. She quickly pulled her sleeve to see what was happening and what she saw freaked her out.

She even forced herself from screaming as she was afraid that she will attract people to where she was and if anyone sees this, won't she be in trouble?

Alita watched as a strange runic tattoo appeared on her hand. The process was awful painful, she gritted her teeth to keep herself strong. This whole process lasted for five minutes before the pain disappeared.

Curious about what this tattoo was, Alita touched it lightly as she was afraid of pain. The pain she felt earlier was too intense for her and she didn't want to go through that again.

When she touched the tattoos, another strange thing happened. There was a bright light that nearly blinded her and she was forced to close her eyes. She only opened her eyes after two minutes when she thought that whatever was happening was all done. Surely it was done and she wondered what was wrong with this tattoo.

It is just that some with weird appeared in her hand, it was a slim black ancient phone. The reason why she knew that it was a phone was that she had seen one in a museum in Greitos.

So, having one in her hand, Alita didn't know what to think about this. As she was busy thinking about what was going on, she heard voices coming towards her way and she quickly made her escape and left no trace of her presence.

She didn't want anyone to connect her to the mysterious light that just attracted everyone here, she didn't want to die young at all, so she ran for her life and decided to play low key until she was sure of what this phone and tattoo were all about.

The people who went to where Alita was, found no one and so the mystery remained one that wasn't solved.
