The Aliens' Insane Powers

"Stay there, Princess." Soldier Paulus showed me my temporary room. Standing outside while the door was open, I turned my gaze around the room and I can't deny its fascinating sight. It looks like a royalty's room! 

"Why here?" I asked the Soldier. I am aware of the mission given to me by the Prince but I don't deserve this kind of treatment! Why do I have to stay in this beautiful room? I am not an alien like them! Shouldn't I be with the people outside? 

"The Prince wanted you to do your best to find his future bride. By giving you this fancy room, he knows you will be motivated to do what you're told. The Prince also promised to give you a special space in Quadrolien once you've done your mission." He didn't lay his eyes on me and remained firm in facing his front. I stood beside him, watching the side of his body. I saw how his jaw clenched. The curl of his eyelashes, his jawline and his pointed nose, I can clearly see his perfection from my point of view. 

He has explained what Quadrolien is. That's the name of their planet. If they were to travel from their planet to Earth, it would take million years if they were to use with just the normal speed of their spaceship. However, they were able to travel fast in a blink of an eye because of the power that the Queen possess. Each of the royal-blooded aliens have special abilities. Each possess multiple abilities, and one of the Queen's ability is to teleport things, including herself. In just a second, she can arrive to a certain place where she wanted to go. I got a little confused. If she has the power to move to a place she desire, why don't she teleport to where the Princess is? 

And this is the Soldier's response.

"The royal-blooded aliens are unpredictable. No one knew how many abilities each one of them possess. No one knew how their powers work. They have limitations, but we can't deny how powerful they are. They aren't the type of aliens who talks about their abilities. They themselves can answer your questions."

I went back to the current situation and formed my hands into fists. My face went from confused to blank. I felt my entire body started to feel weaken. I was fascinated by the sight of the room, I almost got blinded by its beauty. I almost fell into their trap. I almost gave up humanity for their offer.

I turned my back on him. But just as I was about to take a step, he stopped me by grabbing my wrist.

"Where are you going? Don't you like the room?" He worriedly asked. I clicked my tongue and sharply laid my eyes on him.

"Don't make a fool out of me, alien! I'm not someone who easily gets fallen into anyone's trap!" 

His forehead knotted, and confusion marks his face. Clearly he doesn't understand what I mean. But I kept a firm blank face. I have no plan of making him understand.

"What trap? Who told you-"

I didn't let him finish. "Let me go, alien!"

He was surprised, and slowly, removed his hand from its contact with my wrist.

I turned my back on him.

"I'll be staying with my fellow people. I won't let myself be comfortable here while they suffer outside. I'll still do my task, whether you offer me a fancy room or not." And I left him speechless. 

I took a deep breath the moment I stood before the gigantic spaceship's door. Two soldiers were waiting for my signal on when they will be opening it for me to go outside. But I am still preparing myself for a disastrous sight. I may not be able to handle my emotions when I see my fellow humans. I hated to see them suffer. 

I looked at the soldiers' numbers and they are numbers 16 and 17. 

"You guys are humans just like me, aren't you?" I asked as I held my chest. I suddenly felt it tightened. The looks on their faces were unexplainable. All I can say is, they don't like where they are. 

"We are not supposed to answer questions from you. Order from the royal-blooded aliens." Number 16 coldly said as he remained his eyes on his fellow soldier. They didn't even tried to look at me. 

"Well, then. You guys are my fellow humans. It isn't a question. Now all you have to do is to say yes if I'm right, and no if I'm wrong." I calmly stated. The royal-blooded aliens aren't smart enough.

"We aren't supposed to tell anything about us. Order from the royal-blooded aliens." Number 17 stated. Just like number 16, he remained his eyes laid on his fellow soldier.

I felt something fell from my eyes. Oh no, am I crying again?

"Open the door." I stated and fixed my posture. The moment they opened the door, I stepped out without any other words as tears continuously fell down my cheeks. They closed it back again so I fell down on my knees, letting all my emotions out. I silently cried as I kept on holding my chest. It hurts. It hurts so much like it's already crushing my heart. Why do I have to be so vulnerable? I was never like this. I never cared about other people, I don't care about what they are doing, not even their lives! I never really cared about other humans before. But now...

I heard a sound of a gun coming from the wide area where the humans are so I immediately wiped my tears away and stood up. What in the world is happening now? 

I turned my gaze around the area where most of the people are. It's kinda dark, and there are only less lights here. Darkness is dominant. But I can still see those number of people staying in the field and soldiers surrounding them.

Continuous shots were heard so I panicked. I ran to where the people are. A thought came into my mind. Are the soldiers killing the people?

The gunshots stopped when a light suddenly brightens up the area. I intentionally stopped when I noticed something different. The light appeared right above us, so big and bright. I closed my eyes and blocked it with my palm for it almost blinded me because of its amount of brightness. When the light lowers brightness, I opened my eyes slowly. I can now see everything clearly. 

In front of me were people still sitting on the ground. But I noticed that there are some holding bodies like they're unconscious. I gasped when I saw blood stains on those bodies. A lot of people were dead, but majority are still alive. I turned my gaze around and the soldiers were pointing their weapons on everyone.

"What are you doing?! Drop your weapons NOW!!!" I shouted at them. But they ignored me. I ran towards one of them, who has a number 1 embedded on the right chest of his armor.

"You-" My eyes widened when he moved his weapon, pointing it directly at me. My feet stuck on the ground, my body started to tremble in fear.

"Move a step again and I'll shoot." He threatened. His eyes were blank and emotionless. He looked young, and probably the same age as me. From his stance and poise, he seemed to have been so familiar with guns. He looked calm, serious and focused. 

"Number 1..." A familiar voice spoke from behind me. I can tell who he is just from his voice. I know it's him. 

"Point down your weapon." The Prince commanded and number 1 immediately do what he was told.

I gritted my teeth and faced the Prince. He was showing a smirk on his face like he just finds this amusing.

"Human..." He put back on a cold and emotionless face. "What are you still doing here? You're supposed to be in your room right now."

"Concern?" I immediately threw sarcasm at him. He scoffed.

"Fool. Get back to your room now." His voice was commanding. 

"I won't. I'll stay where my fellow humans are, whether you agree or not. You don't have a right to boss me around. You're just a prince in the alien race, but never in the human race." I calmly stated. Everything that comes out of my mouth were what's hidden in my heart. And I'm just letting it out, without even realizing that one wrong word may end my life.

"You're testing my patience, human." He stated. My forehead creased when he raised his hand and pointed something above us. I suddenly felt hot. Seconds later, beads of sweat started to form on my skin. I noticed I am not the only one feeling the hotness, everyone else do, even the soldiers, except for the Prince. I sharply glared at him when he puts on a smile of smugness.

"You want to see everyone suffer, including you, human?" 

I heard groans and pains. I started to suffer as well because of the heat that the Prince caused. Is this one of his powers?

There's nothing I can do but to follow him. I went back inside the gigantic spaceship without even knowing the truth behind the shooting. I am afraid of what the aliens can still do. 

How can I accomplish my plan in the restoration of our planet if the royal-blooded aliens possess insane power which can even possibly erase humanity in just a snap?
