Here it is, chapter 11! Hope you enjoy it! We're back to our main characters now!

Silence filled the sitting area of the care home, Freddy sitting in a chair, taping his left index finger on the table, Paul and Sara sitting on a sofa on the other side of the room, Paul holding a cup of water in his shaking right hand. Jai was back in his wheelchair, whilst Flasheart (having removed his fluids tube) paced back and forth, muttering in Weren, his right hand on his lower muzzle. Suddenly they heard the sounds of police sirens, causing them all to look at the windows in front of them, seeing the police cars screech to a stop outside, also watching men wearing black clothes and helmets (swat men) coming from a further down the street. They waited tensely but patiently as the door to the garden and also the front entrance were suddenly thrown open, swat, police, even a few Royal Army soldiers charging in, running down the hallways, up the stairs and a pair of swat men came into the sitting area, all of them, minus Jai, putting their hands in the air. The one on the left looked rightwards at his partner, who shrugged. Suddenly a man came up to them, wearing wearing, a combat vest, and an army beret. The rank of his shoulders indicated he was a Royal Army captain. He looked at them sternly, placed his hands on his hips, Freddy, Paul and Jai all standing up nervously as he cleared his throat. "Now, as I understand it, someone in this building, and I'm very certain that it's one of you lot, is now the worlds most wanted creature. Which one of you is a..." He asked before then then brought up his right hand and look at it, the species name written in pen on his hand. "Weren?" He asked, reading the name before he looked back at them.

Nobody spoke nor moved for a few seconds before Flasheart and Freddy both stepped forwards. "Me!" Freddy spoke. "I am!" Flasheart spoke out at the same time, causing them to look at each other. Paul, watched this, and knowing this was a father and son who had just been reunited after who knows how long, stepped forwards as well, holding out his arms with his hands in fists. "You'll have to take me, too!" He exclaimed, his hands shaking. The captain signed then turned leftwards and walked a few feet, right hand up his his face as rubbed his rose, before stopping and faced them again. "In case you weren't aware, two hours ago, alien spacecraft were detected on radar, almost immediately after that a broadcast, which I've been told was transmitted all over the world, saying them came for one of their own. And apparently, to make their point, they literally launched and destroyed all of the world's nuclear arsenal, practically leaving us defenceless, and attacked a company of American soldiers, and took the survivors prisoner! And just before we left, we received word that they want to exchange the prisoners for the individual! These people clearly mean business, so I've got no time for bloody jokes!" He explained loudly, and clearly frustrated, but also scared. Freddy and Flasheart then looked at each other again for a seconds, then Freddy looked ahead and let out a sign and then took a step forwards. "It's me. I'm the one Hotspur wants. If you'll take me away, I'll come. I don't know what you do to me, but these Fangen don't deserve it, as well." Freddy spoke, standing still and straight. "But in the broadcast, Hotspur spoke of a sacred object. And I hold that object!" Flasheart then said, holding up his right hand, showing the ring, which shined brightly, Freddy staring at his father with wide eyes. 

A minute later, the group were all being taken out of the building in handcuffs, ignoring Sara and Paul's protests. The sun had just gone down and it was now dark. They were forced out through the gate into the street, and were stopped by a convoy of parked vehicles, and the humans were patted down, but nothing was found, Freddy seeing some confused expressions at his tail and hair, whilst Flasheart was being looked at by a person in a hazmat suit, shining a torch in his left hand into his right eye, the persons right hand holding the eyelids open. "You don't need the suit. I'm not carrying anything." Flasheart said calmly,  but received no response. Freddy glanced rightwards and noticed a punch of police officers coming out of the gate carrying stuff from the basement, and placed them into the open boot the lead black van, seeing his case was among them, plus was Flashearts. Flasheart's (whose mouth was now open wide, the person now shining the torch into it) eyes widened when he saw the flower was among the objects. "Hey, be careful with that! That's the only one of its..." He yelled frantically as he tried to run over towards the boot, but he was stopped by one of the soldiers standing guard, who managed to restrain him and pushed him back to the others, Flasheart getting a good look at the plant to see it secured in the hoot as the boot was closed. Shortly thereafter they got into vehicles, Freddy and Flasheart into the second black van (Freddy in the right hand seat, Flasheart in the left hand seat), whilst the others were put in two police cars, Jai having been picked up out of his wheelchair and placed into the seat, being told they'll have a wheelchair standing by at their destination. Orders were given over the radio and the convoy began to drive down the street, Police bikes in the lead, sirens blaring on all vehicles. "What are they going to do to us, father?" Freddy asked fearfully, looking leftwards at his father with worry. "I have a feeling they'll take us to wherever Hotspur wants to pick us up. He'll send someone down, you know a Weren keep their word." Flasheart spoke, trying to project calmness, noticing in the corner of his eyes the driver was looking in the mirror at them, his eyes displaying confusion. Freddy didn't look that convinced as he turned his head rightwards to see out the window, quickly getting tired and falling asleep.

Sometime later, Freddy felt a nudging on his left shoulder and woke up to see his father looking at him. "We've arrived." Flasheart announced as Freddy felt the vehicle had stopped when the door was suddenly opened, a soldier standing in front of him. "Get out." The house soldier ordered sternly, but calm. Freddy and Flasheart then got out of the door, to them in front of a police station in a town. With their hearing, Freddy and Flasheart could hear the sounds of waves. They looked rightwards to see Sara, Paul stepping up to them, Jai being lifted into a new wheelchair. "Where are we exactly?" Flasheart asked them, hoping they knew, hopefully from passing road signs. "Weston-Super-Mare. Where Hotspur will do the exchange, apparently. My driver said that also, the Prime Minister and the US President will be coming here to meet you and to supervise the exchange." Paul answered, Flasheart looking a bit surprised at hearing that. They were then marched into the police station and were taken to a large room with a long table and chairs, being uncuffed and left alone. Silence filled the room for a moment as Sara then sat in a seat, breathing heavily, muttering under her breath "I'm going to prison, I'm going to prison, I'm going to prison...", whilst Jai and Paul displayed fear on their faces. "We shouldn't even be here. We're civilians, and innocent." Paul said as he stared down at the floor. "And we're sick... and dying." Jai mumbled, making Paul look rightwards at him with a 'not helping' look. Suddenly the door opened, and two police officer's, one male and female, entered the room, the man holding Freddy's and Flasheart's cases (the metal covered in scratch marks) whilst the woman held the flower and they both placed them in centre of the table. "X-rays don't seem to penetrate the metal, nothing we have can only scratch the paint. So, open them, if you please." The male officer ordered politely, as he pointed at the boxes. Freddy and Flasheart, on the other side of the table, then looked at each other before Flasheart shrugged and then stepped over to the table, leaved over it the brought his box forwards and, Freddy doing the same. The two officers looked in the book to see in Freddy's box, with two small metal outward pointed see through material, what looked like a bunch of headphones with a black antenna and a yellow ear tip, and a small square device with a screen very similar to an touchscreen. "Scanning unit, breathing units for bad atmospheres and translators." Freddy explained. In Flasheart's box there was the same, with in addition a small silver knife, with a shiny black metal hilt with a grey symbol drawn on it, a winding handle a small shiny curved guard, with a small metal cube box. The female officer picked up the knife with her right hand and held it closely. "This blade was not made by humans." She spoke. "This was forged by my ancestors, thousands of years ago. You could not have wished for a finer blade." Flasheart explained proudly as he took the knife from her gently with his left hand, and pulled it out of its sheath, displaying the shiny blade, which despite its age, still shone, looking sharp. It was deadly looking, but elegant. "What does the symbol mean?" The male officer asked. "It our language, it translates to English as "Pride"." Flasheart proudly answered. Suddenly a soldier came through the open door. "People... and aliens. The leaders are here." He explained, noticed Flasheart put his knife back into its sheath. "No need to worry. I think he was just showing us it. Right?" The female officer assumed, then asked as she looked over her left shoulder, at Flasheart who nodded then looked downwards at the blade. "If it makes you comfortable, you can put it somewhere safe. But I want it back when I leave here." Flasheart offered, holding the knife out to him, the soldier hesitantly taking it with his left hand, gave a node before turned leftwards and out the door.

 "You witnesses can't stay in here. Please come with me." The male officer said sternly, looking at the others as he turned around rightwards to the door. "No!" Freddy and Flasheart both said together, making the officer turn around leftwards to face them. "They're with me." They both spoke again. "Just please try and be professional. Oh, and stay on that side of the table." The soldier spoke, gesturing to the other side of the table, before he turned around again. Sara stood up and walked around the table whilst Jai and rolled around on the other end. They all stood still and silent, Paul gulping in fear, hands shaking both from his fear and condition, hearing the sounds of the approaching footsteps.

And that's chapter 11 done! Hope you enjoyed it! Flasheart story as to how he came to Earth will be started in the next chapter!
