"Of course he will be going with you.  As for your feline friend, I would say he would have it no other way.  The two of you will go and find the Kurii and then help us destroy the ship.  Nothing of it can remain for any to find.  The Kurri are dangerous so you will have to proceed with caution, especially if you find the ship and the Kurii.   We will provide you with mounts and supplies and a map of the area we think the ship went down at."  Kinder told them.   "Some one will come and get you to take you to Mother.  She wishes to talk to you directly."  Kinder then left them in their quarters.  It was warm for being underground and in solid rock.<br/><br/>Daniel thought back to when he bought Kyla.  He told her that a way back to Earth was imposssible that finding the slavers that used the black ships were impossible to find.  Now they were at the center of where they came from.  Kinder had said that their ships were there in the hive somewhere.   Would Kyla want to go home now.  He looked at her to see what she would say.  He knew she might have lots of questions for the Priest Kings.<br/><br/>It was not long before a human, dressed in white and bald headed, came and got them.  The human was quiet and just motioned for them to follow him.  He took them through passages and across bridges and on and on.  Down even further  within the Hive.  If it was like some ant hives or bee hives, Mother would be some where safe and deep within the hive.	Perhaps a large chamber since she would produce eggs that would become workers, warriors and drones.  But here it seemed they were quite different then just that.  Finally they came to an opening guarded by two of the huge insect like creatures that were Priest Kings.  The man motioned the three forward and stepped aside.  The two hulking figures looked at them and that was it.  They were expected and so Daniel walked on in to the huge chamber that had several sealed up openings.  If he knew anything about insects those would be the egg chambers.  Mother looked a lot bigger then the others.
