What I've Done.
Chapter 35.
By Archaeologist of Humanity.
The Hyperion floated nearby a Militarized-looking Satellite/Moon section with hundreds if not millions of troops all lining up on the moon's surface.
Inside the Hyperion, a rather nervous leader was kneeling before the Architect - One of the main architect's of Death and Sorrow in this part of the Cosmos.
"Sir? You asked to s-s-see me?"
The being simply known as Architect stared out of the window in front of him and hummed to himself. "Took you long enough to see me...Where have you been?"
"Sir, I was merely leading the fleet-UGGHHH!"
Leader Jacob grabbed his chest with his right hand as he was forced into the air by...The air!?
The temperature of the entire ship's bridge changed to one that was... Very uncomfortably hot and itchy.
'Funny you say that. When I have no evidence of this.'
Leader Jacob widened his eyes as his entire conciousness was barely held just above death where he saw the faces of his wife and children.
'Now, you know what will happen if you cannot hold onto your side of our...Arrangement. Correct?'
Jacob nodded his head and was released, he dropped to the floor and wheezed. "Architect...Sir...Please don't do that again. I'll do whatever you want, just please, don't do that again."
'I'll decide what I do. You understand? Wait...Sky is...I can sense her...Excellent...Eheh...Hehehh-hahahahaa! She is progressing through her extreme increases on schedule... Our long awaited meeting will happen soon enough.'
The Architect's thoughts echoed throughout the Hyperion as though the ship was commanded by thought power alone. His power was truly above what one would consider, "Human" or even "God-like"... But... He wasn't here for any normal mission. No. He was here to bring a full stop to one person and one person alone...
Neptune.
And the only way he would bring about facing her would be to face her daughter, and her coward of a husband - Max.
Architect had a smile on his face as he turned and waved to his guards to take Leader Jacob away. Who was now a gibbering wreck.
"S-s-s-sir. P-p-please! Think about what you're doing! Don't think of it for my sake! Think about your future! Please! NO!"
'Take him away... throw him back to Hyperdimension. I have a few... Jobs to take care off here. AHahahahha!'
"As you wish, sir." The first guard took Jacob by the throat while the other two took him by his arms and legs.
"NOOO!"
Meanwhile - back in Hyperdimension - Leanbox.
Snow stood almost petrified. "Wha...How did...You survived!?" Snow trembled as her former mentor and master stood before her. Vixen leaned against the doorframe that Snow had literally only just walked through. Arms folded.
Vixen smirked. "You must know it is not favourable to not think that your own leader survived. Much less be informed by the Goddess' themselves that you were hiding somewhere with Sky. Who..." His gaze went to Sky and the child was almost... Smiling at him?
"Is quite something."
Snow looked between Vixen and Sky and noticed a twinkle as Sky's eyes literally changed colour. They went from being what they were to a transfluent Aquatic Purple.
Vixen nodded and Sky stepped in front of him, the pair just staring at each other for several minutes until Snow started to, practically hyperventilate as she heard gunshots, and they didn't seem friendly.
"Lady Green Heart, your nation is under attack, correct?" Vixen questioned her.
Green Heart nodded. "That it is. What do you suggest?"
"I can take Snow and Sky away from here. They will be safe with me."
Snow could have sworn she sensed a different power eminating from Vixen. It was as though... As though things would be okay. Okay, in general. Snow was conflicated. She swore to protect Sky though...
"It's okay Snow. You can relax now."
Snow closed her eyes tightly. Right up until she felt a soft hand brush against hers. She opened her eyes and saw Sky's eyes looking deep into her own. 'We'll be okay.'
Green Heart nodded again. "Sounds like the best solution for now. Take them into hiding. I will deal with the invaders."
Histoire gulped. "I hope you're right about this Vert."
"I know I am."
In deep space, the Red Arrows 2 was fixing (or at least trying to fix) itself along with four squadrons making passes every so often to make sure Neptune's ship would remain safe. Well, Red's but Lady Purple Heart was the one in charge now... Due to the loss of the Commander from earlier.
There was so few fighters left... It was almost like a lost battle for the future... But Neptune, who sat on her bed in her recovering room, would never give up the fight. She had to win against Arfoire and this Leader Jacob... Even Leader Jacob's boss... This would be a long and hard battle, but she had to make it happen. She HAD to win!
For Sky's sake if not for her own.
Neptune looked down as she tried to think. 'This is crazy... All I ever wanted to do was to eat pudding and watch TV... Now I'm in the middle of an intergalactic war... Argh!'
