"Guys, we need to eat" Luke said.
"But it's so pretty here" Mia said.
"For once I agree with Luke" I told her.
"Why don't the bitch and I go find some food and you guys can stay here and look at the pretty trees?" Luke stood up and walked over to me. I nodded in agreement and so did everyone else. Luke held out his hand to help me off the ground. I eyed him warily. "I'm trying to be nice here" I took his hand and he started to pull me up before letting go.
"Fuck you, Hemmings" I stood up and brushed myself off. "You're paying for lunch now"
"Whatever" He said before heading towards the small town that was about a five minute walk.
"Don't kill each other" Ashton shouted as we walked away. The walk was completely silent until we got to a turning.
"It's this way" Luke said.
"No, it's this way"
"No, that's the way we came"
"Exactly, we want to go to the town we came through" He shut up. "You're an idiot"
"Just shut up. You give me a headache"
"Too busy thinking about me all the time?" I jokingly flipped my hair.
"You wish" He rolled his eyes but chuckled. We fell into silence again and soon ended up in the small town. There was a row of shops on each side of the road and that was it.
"There's a sandwich place there"
"Let's go there. Hopefully they have bacon"
"Hi, how can I help you today?" A cheery woman asked as soon as we stepped into the empty place.
"Do you do bacon sandwiches?" Luke asked.
"Yes, would you like one?"
"Um, six actually" Luke told her.
"Should we get more in case we get hungry later? It won't matter if the bacon's cold" I asked him.

"Good idea. On second thought can we have 12 please?"
"Is someone pregnant?" She glanced over at me.
"What? No. God, no" I replied.
"You guys seem a cute couple though"
"I, um, we're n-"
"Thank you" Luke said, throwing an arm around my shoulders. When the woman turned away I shot him a glare whilst he smirked. We waited another ten minutes before she gave us two brown paper bags, both with six sandwiches in.
"That'll be $25 please" Luke and I both paid half before thanking the woman and leaving.
"We should get ice cream" I told him.
"Ice cream before sandwiches? No thanks"
"Come on" I pulled him towards the shop.
"Maddie, you know we have limited money to last us this whole trip, right?"
"Good point. No ice cream then"
"I'll buy you ice cream later on to make up for it"
"Why are you being so nice?"
"We've got to spend two weeks together. It's not going to be enjoyable for either of us if we're yelling at each other"
"I can't promise that I won't yell at you but I'll try"
"Me too"
"Why'd you let that woman think we're a couple?"
"Didn't want it to become awkward. Plus she seemed nice" I shrugged yet nodded.
"OK, we need to get back to the others before I eat all of these sandwiches because this bacon smells so fucking good"
"You sure you're not pregnant? It does look like you've put some weight on"
"Watch it, Hemmings, or I'll snap your lanky body over my legs"
"Lanky? I have muscle"
"You are also skinny and a real life giant"
"This is going well"
"Fucking swimmingly"

RETURN, A Dark Lord story.
Return, Synopsis In the Triangulum Galaxy, one of a number of galaxies controlled by the Empire of The DARK LORD, JENNA OF CHRISTOS finds herself on the run after she killed a patrolman. Becoming pilot on a pirate craft, several years later she and other pirates are devastated by attacks of the Imperial Legion and are now trying to regroup. Seeking funds that will help them hide out for a time, their leader THURGOD DRISTA and JENNA meet with a PROFESSOR of galactic history who gives them information, a map and an ancient artifact described as a singing stone. He tells them that this could lead them safely to a legendary treasure trove, called THE DARK LORDS HOARD, on the forbidden planet TRILLA. The hoard is supposed to belong to the ruler of the empire who vanished close to one thousand years before and is presumed to be gone. The treasure is believed to be hidden in a tunnel accessible from the planet surface but no one who has gone into the tunnel has ever come out alive or sane. Leaving the pirate hideout immediately after the meeting and avoiding a major attack by the legion, the pirates travel to the galactic rim for supplies and to leave a false trail. With them they take the PROFESSOR and ILISA, a serving girl. However CAPTAIN TRASKA the commander of a Legions task force called Detachment T, has guessed the pirates intentions and tracked them to the rim. The pirates leave on their next leg to TRILLA unaware that CAPTAIN TRASKA with his force of heavy cruisers, is already there and lying in wait for them. Allowing the pirates to land, including an unexpected second pirate ship, CAPTAIN TRASKA sends a force of troopers to capture both craft and their guards. Before they can do this, THURGOD, the PROFESSOR and others, numbering thirteen altogether and led by JENNA entered the tunnel complex. JENNA, warned by ILISA that she must be the one to hold the singing stone, carries it in the hope that it will guide her and her companions past the many dangers in the tunnel. Shortly afterward, VIS VISTRICER the Legions overall commander travels to Trilla in an armoured planetoid, a spacecraft as large as a moon. On his arrival at TRILLA, VIS VISTRICER meets with CAPTAIN TRASKA but before they can do much, they are both surprised by one of the LADIES OF THE CIRCLE who is waiting for the outcome of what is happening in the tunnels. In the tunnels, JENNA leads THURGOD and the rest of party through many dangers and tests. Four are killed in the tunnels but the rest finally come to their goal where, to their surprise, in a cavern they meet the DARK LORD who is alive and very well. He has been waiting for them so he can return to the Empire. JENNA finds out that the patrol officer is alive and that she and many others have been manipulated all this time by the DARK LORD. She also finds out that ILISA, whose real name is JURA, is a member of the CIRCLE OF LADIES and was sent to teach JENNA many years before on her home planet of Christos. The DARK LORD restores and fulfills a promise to release JURA from her service as a LADY. He next has each pirate declare their own fate and takes them to the surfaces of TRILLA. There, at their election, he executes two of the pirates while JENNA is pardoned and some have the death penalty reprieved. The rest will face the courts of the Legion. VIS VISTRICER is raised to the rank of STAR COMMANDER, the highest rank in the Legion while TRASKA becomes a COMMODORE. The DARK LORD returns to Tihab, the administrative centre of the empire. There he takes up his residence in a surprised and disconcerted imperial palace. JENNA is returned by COMMODORE TRASKA to the planet Christos where she is welcomed by the planets rulers and her family, some of whom were aware of some of what was happening.
