Sacred Library, Capital of Xadia
"It has been a week since Oxus has returned, and the party preparations are underway." Abby said. "And we need to show ourselves to the public which is going to be a nightmare."
"Yup, and we are gonna probably die by the mob." Anthony said.
"Onya said that there will be security to keep us safe, but I do agree that we're going to be in big trouble." Abby said.
"And it sucks that we have to wear a suit, I never liked those." Anthony said.
"Well i'm going to be wearing a beautiful dress, they say it's really comfortable." Abby said.
"I thought you didn't like going to fancy parties." Anthony said.
"I don't, but we have to go anyways so such it up." Abby said. "Also it starts in an hour so get ready." Abby went into the other room to change into her dress that was Sky Elf in nature. Anthony on the other hand had a suit of Fire Elf design, and he didn't like the look at all. He put it on and looked in the mirror and said, "I look like a rotisserie chicken." He pouted and turned around and saw Abby in a white flowing dress with sparkles at the end of the dress.
"They gave you that but made me look like a burnt steak with legs." Anthony said.
"What, you want to trade?" Abby said trying to hold in her laughter seeing Anthony in a dress in her mind.
"Shut up, let's go meet the locals already." Anthony said. They both left and were met by guards to escort them to the dance hall. When they got there they were hidden to save the surprise for the populus. The queen would be giving a speech first to thank the pilots of Omega and Violet for their defence of the capital.
"It brings me great pleasure to see all of my people celebrating the defence of our capital from the beast that wished to destroy it." The Dragon Queen said. "And I would like to thank the family of the pilot we have lost a week ago, his sacrifice will not be in vane."
"And as his general and co-pilot I would like to give a toast to him for his bravery for protecting the ones he loved, may he rest in peace." Xara said now fully recovered.
"May he rest in peace." The crowd said pouring some of their drink to the ground and drinking what remained.
"Now I would like to welcome the pilots of the first titan that came to be." The Dragon Queen said. She motioned Abby and Anthony to come to the table facing the crowd. They both hesitated for a few seconds until revealing that the ones who have saved the elves were humans all along.
"What, their human!" "This has to be a joke!" "Why would humans save us!" The people in the crowd said in anger.
"Well, we're dead." Anthony said.
"Citizens, let me explain." The Dragon Queen said. " These humans come from another world, not the humans that you know of on this planet."
The crowd went silent to the news that these humans were from another world. Most were shocked, others were confused, angry, or dumbfounded until one spoke up and said, "Where do they come from exactly?"
"They come from a planet called Earth, and they are the only species on the planet that has their level of intelligence." Xara said. "And they are fighting the massive creatures called kaiju."
"They were also kind enough to help us with creating our own giant, Violet Thunder." The Dragon Queen said. "Also if I am informed of any hostilities toward them by anybody then I will deal with you personally."
Everyone in the crowd was shocked by the queens threat, and it was rare to even see her angry in the first place. After a few minutes people started asking Abby and Anthony about there jaeger and how it works.
"So it works on a power source that isn't magic, that seems impossible." "How did you get here?" "Are you here to help or destroy us?" The citizens said trying to get answers.
"Okay, that is enough." Xara said. The citizens then backed off and went to spread their newfound knowledge. The party went without any attack from anybody in the crowd, mainly due to the queens threat. The dance came and people were talking, drinking and all over having a good time.
"I'm gonna get some fresh air." Anthony said.
"Okay, don't be gone for to long." Abby said.
Anthony went to see if there was a balcony where he could rest and breath. He found one and it already had someone there, Xara. He walked up to her and taped her shoulder, but when she turned around she put a knife right in his face. If he hadn't gone the bathroom a few minutes ago then he would have pissed himself right then and there.
"Oh, sorry for that Anthony, I'm not usually that jumpy." Xara said.
"Well you scared me that's for sure." Anthony said. "So what are you doing."
"Getting some fresh air, you?" Xara said.
"Same, are you doing alright?" Anthony said.
"Still recovering from the battle, Onya said that I should lay off from bossing my men around for a while." Xara said. "But it still haunts me that I could have died right then and there if you and Abby didn't save me."
"Yeah, we never know what battle we will die in, but we can make the most of it." Anthony said. "The hardest choices require the strongest wills."
"Nice saying, did someone say it in your world." Xara said.
"A movie character named Thanos, but i'll explain that later." Anthony said.
"Oh, okay." Xara said. There was a silence for a few seconds before she spoke up again. "Also, thanks for saving my people again."
"What are you gonna kiss me again?" Anthony said jokingly. He was then spun and she wrapped her hands around his shoulders and kissed him again for a second time. She was holding him close and he didn't know what to do. His mind was blank for a few second before she let go of the kiss, her hands were still around his shoulders though.
"That answer your question?" Xara said.
"Y-yeah, and why did you do that again?" Anthony said.
"Because you and Abby are the only humans I respect in this world." Xara said.
The moon light shown on them for one last time. Anthony then wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her in. Her breath could be felt on his face until he kissed her by surprise. She was shocked by his boldness, but she didn't mind at all. She embraced the kiss and held it for a few seconds before they were interrupted by someone. They got out of it and saw who it was.
"I see that you two are having fun." Abby said with a smug look.
"How long were you there?" Anthony said.
"Enough to get a pic." Abby said while waving the photo in their face.
"I'm gonna kill you if you show that to anybody." Anthony said.
"I won't, I promise." Abby said. "I'm gonna go get a drink, i'll leave you two love birds alone."
"Ugh, STOP!" Anthony said. Abby then left to get a drink. Xara was just trying to keep her laughter in from the confrontation, then they went back to talking at the balcony.
"So, you're a Lava Elf right?" Anthony said.
"Fire Elf, and why?" Xara said.
"How can you guys wear this?" Anthony said pointing at his suit.
"Well, i'm wearing a dress so I wouldn't know." Xara.
"Ugh, never mind." Anthony said. He then looked at the sky and saw something. "What is that." He pointed.
"What, what is Sol Regem doing here!" Xara said.
"Who's Sol Regem?" Anthony said.
"He's the defender of the border, something must be important for him to be here." Xara said. She then went to find the queen and tell her what is happening. Anthony got Abby and went at well to see what was going on.
"My queen Sol Re-" Xara said before seeing the queen meet with Sole Regem.
"Why are you here and not the border Sol?" The Dragon Queen said.
"Sorry for the Intrusion but I bring great news." Sol Regem said. He then lowered is wings to reveal three individuals, an elf, a human, and a baby dragon. He took them off his back and onto the ground.
"These are Rayla and Callum and they brought back your son my queen." Sol Regem said.
The Dragon Queen was speechless by the news that her son was alive at all. "A-are you sure that is him?"
"Yes queen." He then pushed Zym toward his mother to show her that he was her son. The Dragon Queen then sniffed him and was taken aback that it was actually him, her son.
"M-my son, y-you're alive." The Dragon Queen said with a tear going down her scales and she was full of joy.
"M-mommy?" Zym said.
"Yes, it's me, mommy." The Dragon Queen was now crying even more by the realization that he is alive. She then picked him up and put him on her back. "Thank you Sol Regem, for bringing my son back to me."
"I didn't do anything, they did." Sol Regem said pointing at Rayla and Callum.
"Hey, and yes he is a human so don't kill him please." Rayla said.
"I will not, even after what has happened for the past few weeks." The Dragon Queen said.
"Wait, what has happened for the few weeks we were gone?" Rayla said.
"Yeah, I thought you guys...hated…us." Callum said before looking straight at the two other humans there.
"There are other humans here!?" Both Callum and Rayla said.
"This is gonna be interesting to talk about." Anthony said.
