A day later.
The resistance group made it heading to the civilian and resistance base near Tokyo.
Nearby however was a Star Cerberus battleship in the sky with two transport ships coming in with starfighters escorting them.
"Hurry!" Okami shouted as her and a few rocket resistance shooters stood there and began firing missiles and Okami sending out powerful blasts of fireballs at them.
Everyone else was running into the blockade runner.
"Get some soldiers in there with the civilians hurry!" Zinnia shouted and picked up a Lancer Assault Rifle which was a common weapon on Earth and began to fire at the incoming Star Cerberus soldiers trying to raid the hanger.
Okami had to run inside and use an air element power to sweep Star Cerberus soldiers off their feets for the resistance soldiers to shoot down more easily.
"They said the blockade runner is almost ready to leave! They also said there is a secret back entrance to this base that we can take to escape!" Umi-Taka shouted from near the entrance to the blockade runner.
Zinnia looked at Futhgren and then seeing Jeremy hiding behind a few crates near the Blockade entrance and she handed the lancer rifle to Umi-Taka who began shooting plasma bolts toward more incoming STar Cerberus soldiers that tried to come in and noticed atlas' coming in.
"Futhgren! To me now!" Zinnia yelled as he stopped throwing grenades and ran to her.
"Take Jeremy and go." Zinnia said.
"What? What about you?" Futhgren asked.
"Mom...?" Jeremy said looking at Zinnia.
Zinnia looked at the resistance soldiers knowing they needed help quickly and looked at Jeremy kneeling down to his level of height.
"I love you. You brought me happiness and joy, the darkness left me and I finally can make peace with the mistakes I made. Thanks to you in my life." She said poking his nose making him smile for a moment.
Soon he hugged her and she hugged him back and both cried.
"At first you looked scary mommy, now you look beautiful. The darkness left you completely." He said making her glad to hear that as her beauty did in fact come to her after escaping and leaving the dark side for good.
"Take him. Go now hurry." Zinnia said handing Jeremy to Futhgren.
"He'll be safe with me! I promise nothing bad will happen to him!" Futhgren shouted running while holding Jeremy.
"I love you mommy! Please don't forget me!" Jeremy shouted.
"I won't hunny!" Zinnia cried out and seen they got the last soldiers and civilians into the blockade runner while Okami, Umi-Taka and Zinnia remained and took out the two atlas' that made it into the hanger.
The blockade runner hovered up and left the hanger quickly and bolting right past the Star Cerberus battleship heading right into the sky and from the sky warped right into hyperspeed and left Earth behind.
Suddenly the battleship began to bombard the base.
"Run hurry!" Zinnia shouted as she and her sisters took off into the base.
They ran past explosions and flames in their way and quickly found the secret cave entrance in the back of the base and ran into it entering the dark and Zinnia using her flame power for them to see.
It took two hours till they finally made it out and nearby a beach where the cave exit was.
"They left us three resistance air speeders." Umi-Taka commented and they walked toward them.
They got onto them and quickly flew off looking back to see the battleship in the sky was leaving the other way.
"Where too now?" Okami asked on the radio communicator.
"I heard there is something going on in Rome, we should help the resistance fighters that are around there." Zinnia told them.
Two weeks later.
Zinnia was reading a datalog on reports and she looked at two new recruits nodding to them as they passed by giving her a wave.
Zinnia noticed the resistance commander walk in and she quickly saluted him.
"Commander Anderson!" Zinnia said.
"At ease." Anderson told her.
"So did you find out anything?" Zinnia asked.
"Your family it seems is gathering help, different factions and I guess that your sister Serenity is leading it to find allies." Anderson said.
"Do they know we are alive?" Zinnia asked.
"No, I believe that should be for you three to tell them. Makes it more believable." Anderson said to her.
"Do you know how Jeremy is?" Zinnia asked.
"Futhgren is taking good care of him. They are on Futhgrens homeworld and he's learning the Nautolan culture quite well. He's happy there. Futhgren's wife is also glad to have another mouth to feed with the two three-year-olds they have. They are lucky to have now an older brother." Anderson said to her.
Zinnia looked happy but also sad looking at the floor.
"It was smart to give him away. He is safer. We are at war and we must stop Star Cerberus no matter the cost. You saved his life. You proved to him you love him and when he grows older he will understand." Anderson said to her.
"No..." Zinnia said making Anderson cock an eyebrow.
"No?" Anderson asked.
Zinnia began to walk out of the tent but stopped looking back at Anderson with a smile and tears. "He saved me..."
