"I'm glad that you're not mad at me …" Lexx tentatively drifted into speaking over the relay to Chel, 'But there are some things I cannot say aloud Someone is always listening. Do you understand?'
"Yes," nodded Chel, kneeling to set Drift down.
While Lexx and Chel were chatting, they did not notice a figure emerge from an invisible door behind them. He had been in the area waiting for Lexx to arrive for several days now. The figure shook his head, sending a wave of long golden hair out of his eyes. He lifted a small whistle from his pocket and pressed it to his lips. The sound it emitted was far beyond that of human or Rishan hearing, but something else heard it loud and clear.
A dark form dropped from the clouds. It circled overhead, tracking the sound's location.
