Over the next few days, Somnioria and Harmony proved to be very good house-guests to Megamind and Minion, who allowed them to stay in the lair. At first Minion had searched for a sleeping bag for Harmony, but the two sisters were happy sharing the couch, explaining that's what they had done it all of their lives. Growing up they shared a bed in their hut and they found it difficult to sleep otherwise.
For Harmony, everything was completely new, and she was extremely enthusiastic about it all, from the brain-bots ("Oh my stars, they are so adorable!"), to Minion's cooking ("My! I had never tasted anything so wonderful!"), to following Megamind around like a hyper puppy and dancing to his favored 80s rock ("Oh, come Megamind! Please dance with me!"). She was captivated by how much humans loved music and nearly every song made her want to dance and sing.
Somnioria had to explain to Megamind that music was a huge part of Genamite culture and their way of life, and he was only too happy to turn the music up a little louder and take a break to dance with Harmony, who proved to dance just as well as him if not better and sing just as gracefully as Somnioria; he assumed it was a Genamite thing.
Another change was now that Somnioria had completely recovered and had a sparring partner, she and Harmony trained every morning and did not stop until noon. On Harmony's first morning on Earth, Somnioria had asked at breakfast if there was a place to train, but all there was were the docks and factories; the girls were only too happy with them and were delighted to start their training again.
Roxanne had been off that day and was at the lair with them that morning, and so she had decided to watch the Genamites train; Megamind and Minion had said they would watch for a moment, but then must get to work.
Somnioria and Harmony stood several long feet apart from each other, but stared with cunning smiles. Roxanne had sat on a crate with shining eyes and Megamind and Minion waited for the entertainment to begin.
"Other species in the cosmos has always looked down on Genamites because we are not willing to cross lines others trample over," Somnioria called over to Harmony, giving a motivational speech. "But we win the fight because we win it the right way!" Somnioria pulled out her bow and an arrow and aimed it at her sister. "Now show me what you can do!"
Harmony held her right hand in a fist and used her arm to block her body. In an instant, a shield appeared at her birthmark, maroon with a sun and moon with stars, and she used her other hand to pull out her sword, ready for battle. Somnioria shot an arrow and Harmony blocked it with her shield, making the arrow disappear. Somnioria pulled out three and shot them at the same time, making Harmony shield herself twice and having to do a huge jump up to avoid the last.
Harmony threw her shield and Somnioria rolled to the side to dodge it. The shield, without Somnioria knowing it, flew in the air and spun back like a boomerang and slammed her in the back of the head. Somnioria saw stars and felt a cut on her neck. Roxanne gasped and Megamind and Minion stared, but Somnioria laughed as Harmony landed back down on the wood.
"HA! When did you learn that?!" Somnioria laughed and ran up to attack.
"There is quite a lot you do not know about me!" Harmony teased as she dodged her sister.
Somnioria hung her bow across her chest and pulled out an arrow, twirling it and turning it into a spear. She ran up to Harmony and she used her sword to block Somnioria's attack.
"Of course there is!" Somnioria sneered with a smile. "I do not read minds!"
Harmony laughed and smacked her sword against Somnioria's spear. They clanged metal and fought on while talking.
"Wait," Megamind called frantically. "She can read minds?!"
Harmony laughed at her friend's reaction and said while fighting Somnioria, "Not exactly. I can read your emotions and state of mind. If I focus, I can feel what it is like to be you. I can understand you, experience you."
"Every Genamite as a special gift." Somnioria elaborated on as she ducked and swung-kicked for Harmony. She fell and Somnioria pointed her spear at Harmony's neck, but Harmony swung her sword to smack the spear out of Somnioria's hand. "Mine is to heal; Harmony's gift is to understand."
Harmony kicked Somnioria in the jaw and the white-haired sister fell back. Harmony leaped up and Somnioria started to run towards the abandoned factories; Harmony followed.
"Mother could also heal." Harmony added to their friends, who were still by the lair, watching in awe. "Father could see into the future."
"A wise, kind-hearted man." Somnioria said. "We never knew him – he died when we were babes – but Mother always spoke very highly of him."
"Of course she would; he was her other-half."
Somnioria ran up the wall of a factory and Harmony followed. They ran across the roofs, Harmony throwing her shield and Somnioria jumping out of its way. Harmony did a leap up into the air and Somnioria saw her o it out of the corner of her eye. She stopped running and aimed her arrow. Smiling cleverly, she waited until the last minute to jump back just as Harmony laded where she once was, and then Somnioria shot the wooden-boards Harmony stood up and she fell through the roof.
Somnioria paused as she put away her bow, and then she heard a laugh as Roxanne, Megamind and Minion ran up to the factory.
Harmony flew up through the hole in the roof and landed next to Somnioria, pocketing her sword as she laughed. "Interesting that you chose to shoot the roof and not your enemy." Harmony acknowledged when she caught her breath.
Somnioria laughed and clamped Harmony's shoulder, covering the cut on the back of her neck with her other hand. "Thank you, though I could never hurt you, but let that be a lesson, Harmony. Your opponent will try to find other means to win the fight; you have always had an open-mind and you must be sure to use it in battle. Be prepared."
"Yes, Somnioria." Harmony said with a nod.
"You did very well." Somnioria added in pride, removing her hand from her own neck; the cut was gone. "You are truly quite the warrior, Little Sis." She looked down at the Earth-dwellers and asked, "Are you planning on joining us?"
Megamind held up his gloved hands and said, "I would, but I really should get to work."
"Yeah, and I should help him, ma'am." Minion quickly added, privately not wanting to get into a fight, even if it was training, with either of them.
Harmony nodded and Somnioria said, "Of course. Good luck."
They jumped down as the males turned for the lair and Harmony asked Roxanne, "Would you like to join us?"
Roxanne blushed and said, "I don't think so. I'm not very good."
Somnioria looked at her with a puzzled look, but Harmony smiled and nodded, understanding. Roxanne knew she knew was she meant, and the human was unsure if she grateful for Harmony's gift or not.
"Alright," Harmony said, stopping Somnioria from asking to elaborate for her. "Well, we should keep going."
They would not stop until noon. By then Somnioria and Harmony were hot and a little short of breath, but their eyes sparkled and they looked pleased. Roxanne would stand up when they came over to her and together the females would go into the lair for lunch.
Somnioria and Harmony kept a close eye out for Yurektamee and his army, knowing he was bound to come back; Somnioria remembered the threat he had made. Though she knew she had left a horrible wound on his hand, she was sure he would be back soon to claim her life and the Earth.
Harmony did point out that Yurektamee was not, or had not, a Healer like Somnioria was and thus it would take longer to heal. It may even be possible that she caused him to lose his hand. Somnioria laughed and said that he was too strong for such a fate, but agreed that he was most likely taking his time to recover himself and his army. It would not be easy to defeat Yurektamee, but they had to try. There was no room for doubt.
Though Somnioria and Harmony trained hard every morning, they knew better than to train past noon.
"We cannot let fear and work consume us." Harmony had said wisely when Megamind pointed this out to the sisters one cool afternoon in the lair. Roxanne was working on her laptop on the couch while Somnioria ran a brush through her hair. Harmony stood by Megamind and watched him work with sparkling eyes.
"So many times people tire themselves and forget what they are fighting for to begin with." Harmony went on. "For example, what do you invent for?"
Megamind looked at her with a smile and said, "Well, it's what I'm good at and it helps Metrocity."
Harmony nodded and said, "Suppose you worked day and night, no rest or sleep. No dates with Roxanne, no talking to Minion, no sunshine or walks, nothing but work. You would not even stop to go out into the city and fight crime. You would get tired, irritable; soon all you would know is your work."
Harmony paused and Megamind thought about the scenario. It would be a lie to say that sometimes he didn't get caught up in his work and would keep going without sleep or breaks, but he was careful to never let it get too far. The idea of missing out on such things sounded miserable, which is the point he knew Harmony was trying to make.
"You would forget what you invent for." She concluded. "You would forget the joy you find in inventing, you would miss your time with your friends and city, and you would grow cold and miserable. I am even guessing your inventions would not be as good as they could be because of it."
Megamind nodded and commented, "Yes, that's probably true."
"It is the same with anything else." Harmony said. "It is good to work, especially when it is something you love to do, but you have to have balance of work and play so you will not grow weary and tired. You must never forget what you work for."
Just then, the 80s music playing quietly in the lair changed songs and Harmony gasped, creating a huge smile and she did a little spin in excitement, twirling her skirt.
"Oo! I love this song!" Harmony cheered and Megamind turned up the volume; the song was I Wanna Dance by Whitney Huston. Harmony ran up to her sister and grabbed one of her hands. "Come on, Somnioria! Dance with me!"
Somnioria frowned as she put down her hairbrush and was reluctant as Harmony tried to pull her off the couch. "No, I really…"
"Oh, come now!" Harmony said kindly and pulled her sister up. "Have some fun!"
Somnioria still looked like she would like nothing more than to sit on the couch and watch, but she seemed to be unable to deny her sister's wishes. Harmony guided her to the center of the room where they held hands and started at a two step back and forth to the rhythm of the music. After a few moment of it, Somnioria gave a sly grin and lifted one of Harmony's hands above their heads to spin her.
Harmony laughed gleefully and Somnioria dipped her quickly. They let go of each other's hands and Harmony took a few steps back from her sister, smiling with mischief, giggling all the way. Somnioria was ready, chuckling, and Harmony ran up to her and slid under her legs, bending so low her hair dragged on the floor. Somnioria turned and grabbed her wrist, pulling her up and putting her other hand on her waist.
Somnioria threw Harmony up in the air and she did a triple side-flip in the air while Somnioria spun on the spot several times, looking like a red blur. Megamind and Roxanne stared with opened mouths and Minion, who was doing laundry, walked by and caught sight of them and stopped to watch with a huge grin on his scaled face. Harmony fell back down and landed in Somnioria's outstretched arms, letting her head hang and her arms and legs stick out, all the while the sisters' laughter had grown until it was loud and proud.
For a moment, the two females laughed of pure happiness, but then they started to glow so they looked like pure white people, like angels from heaven above. The Earth-dwellers gasped and Minion dropped his basket of clothes. The two white forms started to come together, combining together to form one huge form.
Just as it looked like it was about to turn into something more, there was a flash and Somnioria and Harmony slip apart and turned back to normal, landing on the floor and tired from the experience. Somnioria had landed on her front and lifted herself to rest on her hands and knees, one hand holding her head. Harmony had landed on her back and sat up at once, turning to look at Somnioria with excitement in her eyes.
"Somnioria!" Harmony cheered as she stood up and her sister turned to her with a smile. "We almost had it that time! We were so close!"
"I know!" Somnioria replied and stood up, her smiled big and her eyes sparkling. "I was so sure… well, no matter! We will get there someday! I know we will!"
Roxanne ran up to them and asked, "Are you two okay?"
"We are fine." Somnioria answered.
"What was that?!" She awed. "You two glowed and… and…"
"An incredibly rare ability, only possible by Genamites." Harmony explained. "When two Genamites are close, sometimes they can be so close their bodies combined. They are one being, the best and worst of both. A fusion. Only a few have ever been able to perform one, and those were other halves, close friends, or siblings."
"That's… amazing." Megamind awed as he joined the ladies; Minion stayed behind to look at some monitors.
"It is something to be valued." Harmony said. "We used to spend days training and dancing, trying to fuse, knowing full-well we may never achieve our goal; it is rare even among Genamites, you see, but recently we had been so close…"
"Um…"
"One day we will get there." Somnioria said confidently. "But we must be ready for when are enemies rage at our front door. We cannot let this planet fall."
"Uh…"
"Yes!" Megamind said with a big grin.
"Don't worry." Roxanne said boldly. "We won't let Yurektamee take over Metro City or the Earth or anywhere else for that matter!"
"Sir!" Minion called nervously, his eyes small and he had a shaking finger pointed to a screen. "We may want to go take a look outside!"
The other four looked at the monitors hooked up with the telescope and the Death Ray. They quickly ran outside and stood in front of the lair with their eyes to the clouds. Harmony gasped. Megamind, Roxanne and Minion stared. Somnioria's eyes flashed in anger. Creeping through the clouds and down into the blue sky, a spaceship much bigger than the last one floated through the air.
"Yurektamee." Somnioria hissed.
"What kind of timing is this?" Harmony asked as she walked up to be next to her sister.
Somnioria turned to the Earth-dwellers and said, "I hope you were serious about being ready for him. We have a lot to do."
"And we will do it together." Harmony added sternly. "All of us."
"That's right!" Minion said, backing her up.
"Yurektamee won't stand a chance!" Megamind said as he did a fist-pump.
"We're ready for him!" Roxanne added confidently.
"I would not have it any other way." Somnioria said with a nod.
"That ship is bigger than the last one." Roxanne observed, looking back at the ship as it slowly floated towards Metro City.
"Last time he came on a scout-ship." Somnioria explained. "That is one of the main ships. And look! He brought more scout-ships with him!" She said and pointed to the dozen of scout-ships that were following the bigger ship. "I guess those are full of Bildacons."
"He has come with a promise of war." Harmony added. "We must not let him take this planet. He will try to come it of resources and new slaves, but we will not let him!"
"Anyone have any ideas?" Roxanne asked.
"I already have one!" Megamind said with a big grin and started twiddling with his watch as the other four got closer and listen to him explaining the plan.
It was early afternoon and many humans started to notice the huge ship moving ever so slowly down on the downtown area, much like the first scout-ship that came. This one was enormous, slightly shorter than most buildings and scraping them as it floated down the street, crushing walls and shattering windows. People ran for safety and cars started to be rolled out of the ship's way. It lightly touched the pavement, which crumbled under the ship's weight as it landed.
Some people peered at it. Someone already had the Megamind signal up in the clouds, calling for help. Some pulled out their cellphones and called the police. The ship's door opened and the shadows of the Bildacons blocked the light from inside. They stood for a moment before charging out of the ship with their spears pointing to the humans and starting the attack.
Mothers grabbed their children and ran. Cars tried to run over them, but they were stopped and being torn apart by their powerful shells and spears. People started to run the opposite direction or hide in alleyways. Citizens were getting word from the other side of the city and getting ready to flee the city, just in case. It was chaos, and Yurektamee liked it.
He walked down to the doorway and stood, absorbing the falling of the city at his hand. Both hands were whole and ready to fight. He looked around with piercing red eyes and grinned. Somnioria was not here. Yurektamee knew he killed her! It was over and there was nothing in his way.
Suddenly, a sound of an electric guitar rang through the air and many of the roaches stopped attacking and looked around wildly. Yurektamee walked down the ramp and turned to see past the ship, out into the lake. The song "I Wanna Rock" by Twisted Sister played as red and blue lights shone just above the water's surface.
The lights formed the shape of Megamind's logo and they exploded like sticks of dynamite. At the center, floating on a hover-bike, Megamind stood and glared at Yurektamee, who snarled under his saber-teeth. He pulled out his sword from scabbard and took a stance for battle.
Megamind zoomed across the lake and the formation of his logo followed. It wasn't until it zoomed closer that it was seen to be brain-bots, all ready to fight.
Yurektamee pointed his sword to Megamind and yelled to his soldiers, "Destroy the Grathack!"
The brain-bots flew past their daddy and started to chew and kick and zap the cockroaches as they tried to stab and tear the robots apart. Megamind leaped off of his bike as it flew right into Yurektamee. He gave a grunt as it crashed into him, but he did not waver in his stance and was unmarked. He merely popped his neck and growled at Megamind in his own language,
"Is that all you got?"
Megamind pulled out his D-Gun and started to shoot at Yurektamee, but he used his sword to shield himself with the hits. Megamind stared at the smoking word and Yurektamee blew on it. To him, this was nothing more than a game.
"Are you serious?!" Megamind yelled in frustration, wondering how it was that the sword wasn't, at least, disintegrated.
Yurektamee laughed and ran towards Megamind. He swung his sword and Megamind ducked and started to run down the street. Yurektamee laughed out into the oranging-sky and started to chase, using his strength to kick cars and polls after him.
"This feels oddly familiar!" Megamind yelled out.
"No one here to protect you with her gone, is there?" Yurektamee taunted. "If Somnioria could not fight me, what makes you think you ever stood a chance?"
Yurektamee heard a yell and turned in time to see Harmony leaping towards him with her sword above her head. He blocked her attack with his sword and they dueled, Harmony's hair flying and her eyes snapping.
"Another Genamite?" Yurektamee said and then gave a harsh laugh. "You are NOTHING against me!"
"Your reign of terror ends before the sun sets on the lake, Yurektamee!" Harmony promised in their alien language and she swung for his head, but he dodged it and kicked Harmony down.
BANG! Yurektamee tumbled into a building and felt a spider-web crack in it, he shook his head and looked up to see nothing but Harmony, but in front of him Minion and Roxanne were sitting in the invisible car; Minion had hit him to save Harmony.
The car turned visible and Roxanne pulled out a huge gun from the canon and started to shoot from the window. The bullets would not get past Yurektamee's muscles, but they did scrape his skin and cut his arms and chest. He merely growled and ran up to the car, grabbed the front of it, and threw it into the air.
"NO!" Megamind yelled and Harmony attacked Yurektamee, but some brain-bots grabbed hold of the car and gently set it down.
Roxanne got out and held her pounding heart while Minion hurried to the trunk and pulled out more weapons. Harmony dueled with Yurektamee, relying on her speed and agility to save her, and using her shield to block his attacks, but the hooved alien was stronger and slowly lured Harmony against a wall. He moved his arm up to strike, but an arrow shot him by the side of his face and shattered on the brick wall.
Yurektamee roared in pain and turned to see Somnioria racing towards him and she punched him in the jaw, but it did not do anything to him. He grabbed Somnioria by the wrist and slammed her into the wall.
"You!" He growled. "But I destroyed you!"
"How is this for destroyed?!" Somnioria snarled and did a backflip to kick Yurektamee away and ran up the wall to flip behind him.
Yurektamee turned and saw Megamind, Minion, Roxanne, Somnioria and Harmony closing in on him against the wall, all armed and ready to fight.
"I see." Yurektamee said in a language only Somnioria and Harmony could understand. "You think you can hold me down. No one can! I will take you ALL down!"
"Everyone, together!" Somnioria instructed and she shot three of her arrows at once.
Harmony threw her shield like a Frisbee and Megamind, Minion and Roxanne shot their guns at Yurektamee, but though he braced himself for it, it did little and he soon stood unharmed though the shots still kept coming. He raced up to Minion and punched him right off of his feet. He aimed for Roxanne, but Megamind got in the hoofed-alien's way and they both got hit by Yurektamee's brace knuckles and rolled away torn and busied.
Yurektamee kicked and swung his word at Harmony when she attacked, and the yellow-haired girl received a nasty gash that made her scream on her left arm. Somnioria attacked him, driving his focus off of Harmony. The two battled fiercely, spear verses sword. Yurektamee was quicker and did a spin-kick to knock Somnioria off of her feet and stabbed her in the right leg to keep her at the floor. Somnioria let out a horrible siren's scream and glared up at her enemy.
"It is a shame you will not live to see everything fall by my hand," Yurektamee sneered, pointing his sword to Somnioria's heart. "But you belong to me, and I say your time is up, sweetheart."
"NO!"
Harmony ran forward as Yurektamee trust his sword down and Harmony made it to her fallen sister and held her tight, her back to Yurektamee.
Megamind gasped and held Roxanne close as she yelled and tears filled her eyes. Minion gasped and sprung up to his feet. Yurektamee was knocked off of his hooves and fell on his face. He looked up. An explosion of light had gone off the minute the two sisters touched and now they glowed as their bodies slowly merged into one.
They were fusing.
The glowing ceased and a new creature stood on two feet, wearing bright-pink high-heel boots that went to her knees. She had four arms decorated with pink wrappings and wore a magenta shirt and tights with a maroon skirt; she looked like she just came out of a rock-n-roll concert. She had long yellow hair that went to her waist and four silver eyes, the top pair oval like Somnioria's, the bottom pair circle like Harmony's. She and a birthmark on her forehead and another on one of her right hands, and scars like Somnioria's on her cheek and neck.
The fusion opened her eyes and they were silver. She looked down at her body with an open mouth and touched herself with her new four arms.
"Somnioria!" She said in a voice that sounded like Harmony's. "Harmony!" She also said in a voice much like Somnioria's. "We… we fused! We did it! We did it? No! Yes! No! I told you we were close! Wow, look! We… I have four arms!" The fusion touched her arms and moved two of her hands to her face to feel her new eyes. "And four eyes!"
The fusion started to laugh and did a twirl on the spot. She looked at herself as she laughed, while Megamind, Minion and Roxanne stared.
"I can't believe it!" Roxanne gasped and hugged Megamind around his shoulders.
Yurektamee roared in fury as he stood and yelled, "What are you, foul creature?!"
The fusion ceased her laughing and said with a smile, "That is a good question. Who am I?" She looked down at Yurektamee and glared at him with a smile. She knew what to do and was not afraid.
"I am her determination. I am her compassion. I am the protector. I am the peacemaker." The fusion pulled an arrow and a shield as she spoke. "I am her faith. I am her love." She held the arrow with both of her left arms and put the shield down at her waist. The glowed and seemed to be fusing as she went on. "I am their honor. I am their family. I…" The new weapon stopped glowing and revealed to be an electric guitar. "Am Hope!"
"A guitar?" Megamind puzzled at.
Hope grinned at Yurektamee as he raised his sword and charged for her. She ran a hand down the strings and physical waves made by the music ringed and made Yurektamee fly down the street and roll on the concrete, scraping his purple skin. He looked up on his hands and knees, past his falling ponytail, and stood up.
"Let us rock this battle!" Hope said and started to play a rock song like there was no tomorrow.
The waves shattered shaking first-floor windows and made Yurektamee pant his hooves down in the road. Hope walked up to him and used the back of his guitar like a war-hammer and hit him so he flew through a building and rolled. He coughed as Hope emerged from the smock as she played the guitar slow so no waves came out.
"Ready for an encore performance?" Hope sneered with a devilish grin.
Yurektamee stood up and started to fly Metro Man-style. He zoomed up to Hope and punched her so hard she slid backwards in her boots and sunk slowly deeper into the road until she was knee deep and finally stopped. She shook her head and stepped out of her little ditch. Yurektamee flew up to her to do it again, but Hope quickly strung her guitar and the waves from it made him fly backwards, through a building and into a cloud of dust.
"We have to end this, Somnioria." Hope said. "This has to stop. I know. Let us end this, together!"
Hope ran into the cloud of dust and up to Yurektamee's rising form and made her guitar disappear with a twirl of her four hands and kicked him so he slid father down and stole his Sword of Ever-Flowing Blood as she did so. It was a little small in her bigger body, but she managed to hold with both of her left hands to Yurektamee's chest.
"Offer me riches." Hope demanded quietly and cut his left cheek.
"Yes." Yurektamee hissed through gritted teeth, his red eyes on his own sword turned against him.
"Bribe me with power and your armies." Hope added and cut his right cheek.
"Everything I have is yours." Yurektamee said with a shaking voice as he struggled to control himself.
"Beg me for your life." Hope hissed and had the sword in her hand touch Yurektamee's cold heart.
"Please," He spat, a twinge of fear in his eyes. "Anything you want, it's yours."
Hope leaned in closer to look her enemy dead in the eyes. "I want my mother back, you son of a bitch."
Hope lifted the sword above her head and thrust it down.
There was a horrid scream that rang through the air. The Bildacons froze and some were killed by a brain-bot, but some wondered why their enemy stopped attacking. People looked out their windows and door cautiously, still in hiding. Megamind and Roxanne looked at the cloud of dust and waited. Minion ran up to him and looked at the cloud.
"Was that…?"
"We don't know." Megamind interrupted.
"Look!" Roxanne said and pointed at the cloud.
A shadow appeared in the cloud. It was hard to tell its size, but it looked strong and it's head was down. It held a sword in one hand. Megamind pointed his D-Gun at it and Roxanne covered her mouth as tears flowed down her cheeks.
The shadow came closer and it soon showed that it had four arms, not two. It looked about eight feet tall and its long hair could be seen flying in the light breeze. Megamind lowered his gun slightly and Hope emerged from the cloud, her head down and the Sword of Ever-Flowing Blood grazing the floor, the blade dipped in blood.
Hope lifted her head and saw Megamind, Minion and Roxanne standing in front of her and looking at her. She dropped the sword and walked towards them. She stopped in front of them and bent her knees and sat on her feet to be level with them. Her right leg was cute and so was her bottom left one. She simply stared at the three and it was hard to tell if she recognized them or not.
Roxanne took a step forward and asked shyly, "Um, do you remember us?"
Hope chuckled and smiled kindly. "How could I forget?"
Roxanne smiled and Megamind and Minion relaxed. Hope closed her eyes. She glowed again and slowly Somnioria and Harmony separated. When they stopped glowing they could be seen holding each other. Somnioria's leg was still cut pretty bad and she leaned against her sister to help stand. Harmony's arm was still cut and Somnioria placed a still hand on it to help stop the bleeding.
"That was amazing!" Roxanne cheered.
"Are you two going to be okay?" Minion asked the sisters.
"We will be alright." Somnioria answered with a smile. "I shall heal us with my tears later."
The Bildacons ran in a panic into the cloud of dust where Yurektamee's body laid. After a moment the Bildacons ran out in a crowd with their leader's body over their heads and they ran into their ships. Megamind moved to go after them, but Somnioria said,
"Let them go, Megamind. They are useless without their leader. After they retreat, they will have no idea what to do with themselves. They may starve to death for all we know."
"Do they have a home planet?" Megamind asked as they watched the cockroaches pile into their ships and struggle to get away.
"No." Somnioria answered. "They do not have their own planet, but the ones they have conquered, but with Yurektamee dead the planets will soon gain their freedom again. His reign ended today."
"All thanks to Hope." Harmony added with a smile.
Somnioria smiled back as the ships flew away, but then it faded as she thought about the future. "But what do we do now, Harmony? Sugalight is destroyed. Our people are dead. We have no home to go back to."
"Of course you do." Megamind said and took a step forward, a big smile on his face and his green eyes sparkling. "You can stay here."
Somnioria and Harmony exchanged looks before looking back at him and peering over his shoulder to see Minion and Roxanne. With everything that had been going on, they sisters didn't really think about what to do after it was over. They loved Earth and thusly had protected it, but the thought of living on the planet was unsettling.
"You mean, here? On Earth?" Harmony asked.
"It is a thought…"
"It is a wonderful thought!" Harmony interrupted her sister. "Could we? Earth is such a wonderful place, and our new family is here, too!"
Minion grinned and said, "So, you'll stay?"
Harmony grinned even wider and nodded.
Somnioria laughed and said, "Yes, of course. This is our home."
Roxanne laughed and went up to gently hug the two sisters. Megamind then stole her and gave her a kiss and held her close. Minion cheered and some of the humans started to gather around them and cheer. Somnioria held Harmony closer while the yellow-haired alien smiled and gave a little way from under her sister's protection.
Somnioria looked around the city and noticed all of the destruction Hope, Yurektamee and his army had caused. She also noticed the throbbing pain in her leg and said to Harmony,
"We have a lot of cleaning up to do."
Harmony also looked around as Megamind and Roxanne acknowledged the citizens' thanks and she smiled sheepishly. It would take time to get used to it all, the new home, the new answers, the plans for recovering and rebuilding, but the two alien sisters read each other's mind (one of them in a literal sense) and knew they wouldn't want it any other way.

As a side note, the Genamites were heavily inspired by Starfire from Teen Titans and Gems from Steven Universe. They are my own species and Megamind and Minion's species' culture and planet is simply me guessing. I've seen many different takes on it, all are wonderful, but I wanted to do something different.
Lastly, please ask my permission first before using Somnioria, Harmony, or Yurektamee for anything, If you use them, please credit me, not simply for copyright stuff, but also because I wanna see it! :)
Thanks again for making it this far, and I hope you like it! 3
