The Sound of Revenge, Chapter 1
The Sound of Revenge..
Chapter 1….
The Heart and Soul counts
“Dustil! Its my picture!” Little Hunter cried chasing Dustil around the Ebon Hawk.
“You have to run faster than that!” Dustil laughed sprinting away from Hunter.
“But Dustil!”
“Fine! You can have it.” Dustil said holding out the picture.
Hunter looked up at Dustil wide eyed. He reached out for the picture.
“If you can reach it!” Dustil laughed lifting the picture over his head.
“Dustil! Give it back!” Hunter screeched jumping up trying to grab the data pad in his little hands.
“Dustil! Hunter!”
Dustil lowerd his arm and Hunter stopped jumping.
“How many times have I told you? Please listen to me and stop coming to the Ebon Hawk.” Revan said with her hands on her hips.
“Dustil took my picture!”
“Dustil!” Revan said madly.
“What?! Co’mon Rev, have a little bit of fun sometimes.”
“Give Hunter his picture back! Now!”
“Fine!” Dustil said handing Hunter his picture back.
Hunter smiled and hugged the picture to his cheast.
“Now, please don’t come back in here.” Revan said in her mothering voice.
“Okay mommy!” Hunter said with a broader grin.
“Alright, Revan.” Dustil said rudly.
Dustil still thought of Revan as a replacement to his mother. Carth would sometimes tell Dustil that no one could replace Morgana, but Dustil knew Carth had moved on, Dustil just needed time.
“Dustil, are you coming?” Hunter asked.
“Yeah.”
*******
Hunter sat in his room in their small home on Telos. He staired and staired at the picture he held in his hands.
“Why does Dustil have to be so mean?” Hunter thought. “I wish he doesn’t hate me, I wish we could be brother and brother.”
The doors to his room opened and Revan stepped in.
“Hey sweetheart.” Revan said walking over to sit next to him.
“Hi mommy!” Hunter said stuffing his picture under his blankets.
“Is something bothering you?” Revan asked sitting down next to him.
“Nothing is wrong!” Hunter said smiling.
“I would mostly fall for it but something is not clicking. You can tell me anything Hunter.”
“I know, but nothing is wrong.”
“Okay Hunter.” Revan stood up.
“Mommy, when is Aiedail coming back?” Hunter asked looking up at her.
“Honey, I don’t think Aiedail is coming back. I love you.” Revan said leaning down to kiss his rosey cheaks.
“I love you too!”
Revan left and Hunter pulled his picture out from under the blankets. He looked at it. It was him and Aiedail when they were four. The picture was kinda blury because Atton took it, but atleast you could tell it was Aiedail and Hunter. Hunter thought Aiedail was very pretty. She had long brown hair. She was short, but strong. Her eyes were hazel, which Hunter thought was exotic. Aiedail was Atton and Andria’s daughter who was born on the same day as Hunter so they grew up celibraiting their birthday together.
The doors, once again opened and Dustil walked in.
“Hey Hunter.” Dustil said sitting next to Hunter.
“Hi.” Hunter said setting the picture down.
“Watcha doing? Looking at that crumy picture of yours?”
“No.”
“Then what are you doing?”
“Nothing.”
“Why are you keeping your sentances short?”
“Because.”
“Because why?”
“Because I can.”
“Okay.”
“Dustil, why dont you like me or mommy?”
“I like you, and Revan.”
“No you don’t.”
“I probably don’t show it, but I do.”
“Okay.”
“Is that all?”
“Yes.”
“Okay.”
“Do accept me and mommy?”
“Um, yeah, I do.”
“Do you?”
“Not really.”
“Why not?”
“Your too young to know.”
“No I’m not!”
“Yes, you are.” Dustil stated getting up.
“No im not! I’m not young anymore!” Hunter said grabbing Dustil’s sleeve.
“Your eight!”
“So?”
“So, your too young. I’ll tell you when your older.”
“Then it wouldn’t matter as much to me as it does now!”
“Let go Hunter!” Dustil snapped.
Hunter let go and Dustil left.
“Foods done!” Hunter heard Carth call.
Hunter got up and walked out to the dining room.
“Today’s special is Gizka soup.” Carth annunced.
“Um, dad, no offence, but im not in the mood of getting food poisoning.”
“Nothing is wrong with it.” Carth said looking at his soup.
“Its purple.” Revan said scooting away from it.
“Whats that stuff floating in it?” Dustil asked arching an eyebrow.
“Whats that smell?” Hunter said pinching his nose.
“Dustil! I told you to go take a shower!” Carth said.
“He mean’t the soup.” Revan said laughing.
“You can’t judge it by how it looks and smells.”
“Well Carth, its purple which is a odd color for soup….”
“That’s why its called a special.”
“It smells like the undead.”
“You can’t judge it by that.”
“And the guy cooking it.” Revan finished.
“Can’t we just go somewhere to eat?” Dustil said standing up.
“Most of the time I would doubt Dustil, but I really think we should go somewhere.” Revan said standing up too.
“Fine! We’ll go somewhere, but next time we have a special, we’re staying here.” Carth said picking up some credits.

Outer Rim….
“Aiedail!”
“Yes Master Atton?” Aiedail asked kneeling down.
“I like the sound of that.”
“Atton, don’t teach Aiedail that. Aiedail, sweety, stand up.”
“What?! I have never been called master before.” Atton complained.
“Then why don’t you whine about it? Your not taking it out on our daughter! Aiedail, just call him dad.”
“Okay mom!” Aiedail smiled sweetly.
Aiedail ran off.
“Atton, your not teaching Aiedail your scoundral drill!”
“Well, your not going to teach her pazaak!”
“I don’t want my daughter shooting a blaster!”
“I don’t her to throw cards down on me!”
“Atton!”
“What?! I have done nothing wrong!”
“She’ll just be a regular girl with a loving family.”
“Can we go back to Telos and trade her for Hunter?”
“Atton, no!”
“Why not?”
“Because we won’t have anymore benifits with Hunter.”
“He’s a guy.”
“Girls are better than guy honey, you should know that by now. Thats how I got Mical to wear a skirt and be the maid.”
“We havn’t talked to Carth and Revan in awhile.”
“Yeah, Aiedail can’t stop asking about Hunter.”
“We should pay them a visit.”
“Yeah, they’ll just let us walk on up to the admiral of Telos and his family of Onasi’s.”
“Exactly.”
“Fine, we’ll go….. tomorrow.”
“But why? Why can’t we go now?”
“Because we have to pack.”
“No, im good in my everyday cloths.”
“Yeah, you wear it even at night, why else do I not sleep with you?”
“Because I snore.”
“Yeah, now go tell Aiedail.”
“Tell her what?”
“We’re going to Telos and she has to pack.”
“Okies.”
Atton skipped off to Aiedails room.
*******
“Can I fly the ship dad?” Aiedial asked.
“No, only a experianced pilot can fly this baby.”
“Atton, your nothing near experianced.” Andria said.
“Are you trying to get Aiedail to fly this?”
“No.”
“Then shut it.”
“Okay, lets go Aiedail.”
“Where?”
“To sit down and buckle up.”
