'So this is it, huh?' Tomo sat looking down the barrel of the Ravager Cannon which was half the size of her school. The events of the last few days passed before her eyes, leaving an even more shaken girl. The others, gone. Their fault, those alien bastards. Sakaki lay on the ground next to her, Yomi on the other side. None of them had any idea where Yukari and Nyamo could be. The wildcat girl whimpered, knowing that it was the end. She heard a faint ringing and lied back, looking into the massive thing before her, remembering.
CHAPTER 1 An Overheard Conversation
Osaka walked down the hallway to the classroom. She had been thinking about something, but now is not the time to talk of that. "Hey!" she heard someone shout from behind her. Turning, she saw one of her friends charging towards her. "Hiya, Tomo", she said as the other girl got to her. Tomo got to her and asked ,"Have you seen Kagura today?"
"No, but Ah heard from Yomi that she was down at the pool," replied Osaka. "Okay, thanks!" exclaimed Tomo as she turned back down the hall. Shrugging, Osaka returned to her former duties.
Tomo ran, faster than usual, to the pool. Kagura, who was in fact at the pool, saw her charging through the gate. She waved and walked over to her. "Hey, Tomo", said the athlete as her friend got to her.
"Kagura I saw it, it does exist!" said Tomo in between her short breathing. The day before, Kagura swore she saw something fly low over the park, but make not a single noise. Tomo said that if she stayed at the park and watched the sky the entire night, she'd not see a single out-of-the-ordinary thing. So she went to the park, and, as mentioned before, she saw it.
"I told you", said Kagura ,"Did it do anything different?"
"No, it flew right over the park, and didn't make a sound."
"I wonder what it might be..."
It was about this time the bell began to ring, and Tomo and Kagura made their way to Yukari's classroom.

When it was nearly 3, Tomo began to doze off. Yomi looked over and sighed. She'd probably be stuck waking her up today. Waking Tomo up was never a joyful experience. Last time Yomi woke her up, she ended up with a broken nose. Tomo could be very violent on the trip back to reality sometimes...
Sakaki had her usual spot by the window looking into the clouds above. Chiyo was talking with Naoko about the last test. Osaka was long gone in the land of dreams. Kagura was flipping through a bike magazine she had brought. Yukari had already left, so the class was officially over. Soon after the bell had rung, there was an angry scream and a yelp of pain. All the remaining heads turned. Yomi was on the ground in front of Tomo's desk. Said girl was standing with her fist in front of her, looking very angry.
Tomo looked down at her and became fully awake. She bounced around her desk to help Yomi up. "You know that this happens when you wake me up", she said to the taller girl.
"Well it wasn't like I had much of a choice", replied Yomi.
The wildcat girl smiled and yawned. "Looks like I'm still a bit tired."
"You need to get more sleep," sighed the other girl rubbing her forehead.
Yomi led the sleepy wildcat outside and began the long walk to her house. When she arrived at Tomo's house, she led the wildcat inside. "Mom, Dad, I'm home!" yelled Tomo. Her mother came out of the kitchen carrying a small book.
"Hello Mrs. Takino," said Yomi, bowing.
"Ah, hello Yomi," welcomed Mrs. Takino. Tomo went into the main room to put away her school items. "How was school, Tomo," said Mrs. Takino coming into the room as well.
"The same as any day," replied the teen.
Yomi waved goodbye to the two Takinos ,"Bye, Tomo, see you later." Tomo and her mother said their goodbyes to Yomi as she began to leave. Once out of the house, Yomi sighed. She began the walk home.

Tomo stared at the ceiling of her bedroom. Turning her head, she saw that the time was 1:00 AM. Groaning, the wildcat turned off her light and went to her bed and went to sleep.
She was awoken a few hours later by a noise coming from her window. Alarmed, Tomo slowly slid out of bed to investigate. As she approached the window, she heard someone speaking in a language she didn't understand. Through the window she could see two figures. One of them turned to look through the glass. It spoke in Japanese.
"He comes, and the Byrten have little to stop him. We, as Drykal, must aid these people. Prepare the Lyras Klarl'ti, we will begin preparations immediately." The other person made a slight bow and turned to leave. The one that spoke looked in for a while longer, then left also. Tomo shook her head thinking it was an illusion and went back to bed.

Yornkaceyl Eylmey was in thought on the flight back to the hidden base on Earth. 'I hope that Byrtel heard me,' thought the young prince. His people, the Lyracl'i, had created a powerful empire that spanned several worlds. They had destroyed more than seven alien races, and destroyed two planets. Eylmey's brother, the Harakaceyl Kanyl, was undefeated in battle. He alone had conquered a system. Their father, Lyrarekaceyl Tynuren, was proud of his son's accomplishments. Eylmey, however, had witnessed Kanyl order the slaughter of thousands of citizens for having regretful thoughts at killing other sentient peoples. Eylmey created the Dryka Mirkat in order to spare others the death. Kanyl learned of the Dryka Mirkat, but said nothing. He used his brother's foregoings to find his targets. Eylmey saw the base as they landed. Muryl stood to escort his Yornkaceyl to his quarters.
