 obias Takmore, present leader of The Cult of Vartax, had challenged the
many Galactic Forces and had eluded capture on many occasions. His name brought
death and destruction wherever he went; cities, planets and even empires fell
before The Cult of Vartax.
But Earth was where their terror and destruction would come to an end and
Tobias Takmore's rein would be no more. Having faced a bloody battle across the
globe The Cult of Vartax was finally brought to justice.
Even thou he had conquered the continents of this backward little planet,
human spirit would be his down fall. Those that had supported the cult went
into hiding while those that served him and followed him close would find their
fate to be the same.
A fate decided by the World Council, but not without some opposition from
within the council itself. Some wanted him and his followers executed, but the
majority wanted him sent into cryogenics where his body and his followers would
go on display to serve as a warning to any would-be invaders to the planet.
However, the World Council had proved to be weak when it came to their decision
making, by allowing Tobias Takmore to have a final wish; a wish to address the
people of Earth before his final incarceration.
Tobias Takmore swept into the room and turned towards the cameras that were
waiting for him and grinned. He stood tall, dressed in black and showing no
remorse whatsoever, his hands still electronically cuffed while waiting for his
cue from the directors of the broadcast.
He
looked around at the people before him and smiled as he caught himself on the
screens that covered the walls around him. He cleared his
throat and began to speak, "Citizens of Earth. I am Tobias Takmore of
the Cult of Vartax, but then you should already know that." He declared.
"I am here to announce, that we are no longer in good favour with the
World Council and that their unjust decision to sentence us to eternal sleep
will only serve in bringing about a revolution, an uprising by the Cult of Vartax. My people, I say to you this that |
justice must be swift. Take action
against these oppressors. They will have us shot if we do not enter cryogenics-
"
Tobias was interrupted by a security guard who held his left arm tightly,
"That's enough of that. You've had your say, Takmore. It's the big freeze
for you." and began to guide Tobias away from the cameras, not before he
bowed and left the stage. He was unceremoniously dragged to where the other
senior members of the cult were being held.
Takmore smiled at his secretary. "Do you think they bought it?"
He grinned, straightening his tie with his cuffed hands and walking down the
corridor towards his personal space ship, which had been ceased by the security
forces to the World Council.
"Oh yes, sir. I think they bought it very much." he replied and
muttered to himself, "If the cameras had been switched on."
"Is there any news on the Torchwood situation?" Takmore asked as
the door to his ship slid elegantly open.
"Nothing on Torchwood, sir, they seem to have forgotten about
us." again his secretary muttered aside, "They were the reason for
the cult's final downfall." |
