At Pahrac's instruction, the Second of Queenhood sent a telepathic message to the Queen telling her where to deploy the Kelbrid hives. She passed it on to the other Seconds and the Kelbrid began what was probably the largest mass-migration in the history of the Multiverse.

Millions of Kelbrid were converging on a tiny asteroid. It was going to be one hell of a battle.

Draco powered up a starburst and vanished in a brilliant flash of light that carried them all to The One's stronghold.

The twin spaceships appeared not a thousand miles from their target and flew straight at it at full sub-light speed.

Draca gave a war-whoop and raced ahead, Cryos heard Mewtwo screaming. Draca, STOP! There is a high likelihood of some kind of trap!

But his words of warning came too late. A tiny asteroid that no one had even noticed before rotated, showing a weapon station on the far side. An energy bolt lanced out through space and knocked her and all her passengers out cold.

"A knockout weapon!? But why-" Narakoo roared before his face went blank in shock. "Of course! The One would rather absorb his enemies than kill, we must keep Draca from being captured at all cost!"

"Right, Draco: Evasive! Try to take out that gun!" Cryos yelled.

"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!" Draco bellowed and plowed ahead at full speed.

"Pest! What are you doing?!" Screamed Vegeita. "We're going to hit the other ship!"

"Brace for impact!!!" Someone yelled, but Cryos wasn't sure who.

Draco crashed into Draca and plowed her through space. The weapon station fired twice more, but the shots struck Draca and were absorbed before they were able to hurt Draco.

Then they plowed into the gun.

The explosion was impressive. Waves of released power radiated out into space destroying another asteroid gun that hadn't come online yet.

Cryos and the others gaped in shock at all this. Not only had Draco done something incredibly dangerous, but also had done it right! Saving Draca from being captured.

"That was incredible Draco," Cryos said. "How'd you know to use Draca as a shield?"

"I didn't!" The lizard announced proudly. "My body just seemed to do it all on it's own!"

A crash made everyone turn around. Kentra stood hunched over a torn out section of the floor. Draco's neural fibers were twisted around her hands and she was squeezing them, turning Draco into a puppet.

She dropped the slimy fibers and asked, "Can we go now? I want to kill The One and get on with my life."

Everyone just stared at her for a minute, Then Cryos asked Mewtwo if Draca was all right. He didn't worry about Draco much, it wasn't likely that his brain could get any more scrambled.

She seems alright, it is fortunate that only Zeethra was aboard her at the time though. That blast would have killed anyone else.

"Good, now lets go." Pouted Kentra as she gave a momentary power flare that vaporized the sticky nural fluids still on her hands before she went and sat in the corner.

Cryos gave her a funny look, not because the level of power she'd just used was above her, far from it, but she'd done it too easily. She should have at least had to concentrate to do that, and she didn't even seem to realize that she's don't it at all.

He shrugged it off. She's getting more powerful everyday, even with her training on hold. I guess that shouldn't be too surprising.

Draca woke up around then, along with Zeethra inside. Neither was in too good a mood, but they didn't complain too much.

The remainder of the trip passed without too much trouble. They encountered two more gun asteroids, and several small patrol ships, but they were all dealt with easily.

The One's castle in the middle of a small clump of asteroids. But 'small' only described the number of them. Every one was the size of a small planet.

Those asteroids are orbiting around their focal point far too fast for gravity to hold them together. Mewtwo observed.

"Yes…" Narakoo hissed. "The One binds them there with his power. That fool, he already has more power then he knows what to do with. And his plans are more ambitious than anything even I ever had!"

Once again Cryos had second thoughts about Narakoo. He didn't doubt his desire to kill The One, but this alliance struck him as more of an enemy-of-an-enemy thing. Narakoo didn't care about the rest of them, he only wanted revenge.

The badly mangled alien was deep in thought, staring out at The One's spinning fortress. Cryos decided that whatever kind of truce they had was good for now, he'd just have to keep an eye on things.


"How do we get in?" Cryos wondered out loud.

"Easily," Pahrac told him. "The Kelbrid swarms will arrive very soon. They can destroy them."

"How?" Asked Draco.

"You shall see…"

Sure enough, within two hours (or five thousand repetitions of 'Are they here yet…' by Draco) there was a strange ripple in reality and dozens of huge ships started dropping out of Z-Space all around them.

"Ah, the Spawnships have arrived." Announced Pahrac. "The ships you see are actually living Kelbrid. But have been grown to immense proportions and retrofitted with booster engines. Any moment now they will launch- There! The bombers are on the move, we had best retreat to a safe distance."

Cryos looked closely and saw tiny Kelbrid drones zipping through space. They looked like they had simply been thrown out the hatch at the meteors. (and he later found out that that was exactly what had happened) But as they reached the giant rocks, they began to latch onto them and with a suddenness that made nearly everyone jump they exploded!

"It has been a good year for bomb flowers." Pahrac told them. "We feed them to drones to make their body chemistry unstable, resulting in what you see before you. But enough talk, their work is done, let us proceed."

House sized chunks of rock were spiraling off in every direction, but Draco and Draca were more than agile enough to avoid it.

The Spawnships didn't fare so well.

Several of them were destroyed, and nearly all were damaged. But that couldn't stop the single-minded Kelbrid determination. The Drones were jumping out into space in an attempt to reach the palace.

Some were going to make it, most weren't.

Cryos had Draco swoop through several clouds of them to pick up as many as they could.

The moment the first Kelbrid touched the planet, there was a power flare unlike anything anyone there had ever experienced before.

A total of one hundred Spawnships and well over ten million Kelbrid made it to the small planet.

Cryos hoped it would be enough…
