I do not own anything...literally. Here is the list of what I DON'T own:

War of the Worlds is another thing I DON'T own.

And the Crystal Egg is another thing I DON'T own.

I disown everything!

Now, this is going to work like this: Each chapter is either the Reginite's, Zerxus, POV or the Martian's, Machi,POV of the same events that happened previous chapter. This is a prologue and doesn't count. This is from Machi's POV.


"So where is it?" the Martian half of the Council asked the Reginite half. The amphibian race huffed. They're not telling us anything. They are allies, but that makes no difference to us.

The item we seek is highly classified and I'm not going to mention it. So I'll call it DNA. Not the genetic make up, but it stands for 'Do Not Ask'.

We knew the Reginites wasn't going to talk but we have a plan. One of the Martians looked at me.

"Machi...care to do the honors?" he asked. I grinned.

"It'll be my pleasure." I answered. I lifted the Crystal Egg and set it before the Council. The Reginites were speechless. Like nearly every race, the Reginites highly value the Crystal Egg. It is the future of the universe and all that lives. And now us Martians are holding it against the Reginites.

"Tell us where it is or else." I told them. I didn't have to say my threat. The Reginites got the message loud and clear.

"We don't know where. Only Zerxus does and he's still back on Earth." a Reginite answered.

Us Martians paused. So Zerxus is the only one with the knowledge regarding the DNA. Fortunatly he made me his best friend. We're partner 'explorers' to the planet Earth. Zerxus will tell me everything. I had to leave to come here and get the DNA info from our allies. But now I knew I had to go back to Earth.

Smiling, we gained our mental control on the Reginites and made them fall into a deep sleep. They may be more intellegent than any human could ever hope to be, but their brain power can never compare to ours. As soon as they were in slumber, we wiped every memory regarding this. Afterwards, we ignored their sleeping form.

"Machi, you must return to Earth."

"I know. But Zerxus may not spill. He may consider me as his best friend, but it will be difficult to make him talk." I told them.

"Get what we need by any means possible. The entire Martian fate rests on your tentacles. Don't fail."

I smiled. "Don't worry. I won't."

"You're so sure of yourself. Just hope that confidence gets what we want."

I stood up.

"I will succeed. And NOTHING will get in my way. Not even Zerxus. I garrantee that."

With that said and done, I made my way to my...'Tripod', as you humans call it, that will fly me back to Earth.

Like I said: Nothing will stop me.


I'll repeat: I own NOTHING!

Pleaz review!
