The hivemind is conquering for me?

Chapter 69: Onyx being a terror?

I woke up with a packaged steak on my chest, not the weirdest awakening I have ever had but its up there. Looking to my right, The assumed culprit Orchid was staring at me with a beaming smile. "Good morning my love, Orchid found you some food." I could tell Orchid was proud at providing for me in the strange alien environment that was Ronnies ship.

Usually she would just bring me a piece of biltong mystery meat combo from who knows what manner of creatures and I would munch on that. this led me to assume she had aid finding the food stores here.

Deciding to let her have her small achievement I greeted. "Good morning my little provider, thank you for putting the steak in a bag on my chest as that is a normal thing to place there." Orchid did not detect my sarcasm at the end and was all smiles at a job well done.

Deciding to ignore her sweet behaviour until I had my fill I went in

"Aura of death?" I said rhetorically for a moment before looking at Ronnie with a raised eyebrow. "Hey Ronnie, I was going to end up asking this a bit later but it works now. Are you Psionically gifted by chance." Ronnie nodded his head in affirmation. "Ah that explains it then. Onyx is a psionic killer, It his her main speciality behind her psionic power.

Unless she wants you to see her, Onyx is regarded as invisible to anyone who has a Psionic gift. So when you gazed upon her form your mind was alerting you that your death was before you."

Learning about your fear and understanding eases the sense of fear and Ronnies fear had subsided slightly. He would still do everything In his power to never come in contact with that walking reminder of death, although that is totally out of his hands as Onyx had found a fun plaything.

Leaning back in his chair and taking a deep breath Ronnie looked at me before expressing. "Thank you for taking the time to explain Apollo. Someone with your importance does not have to explain anything to his property so I appreciate it."

"Hey don't fret it I may be the mate of the Hive but I'm still human and understand human feelings, somewhat, So don't try to deify me or anything and just treat me like a member of the family because as you say that is what the hive is, one giant family."

Ronnies mind began to race at what Apollo had just said. He pictured Apollo leading his family through the universe converting entire planets into more family and devouring others to sustain the ever growing family. Ronnie grew ever excited at the prospect that his Father Apollo would not only be his and his families Father, but the Father to the entire universe.
