5 years later...

The sun rose on Purple and Pink city and illuminated the beautiful scenery that was now Kaden, his (now) wife Amerie, and Alister's home. It was one of the most safest cities in the Galaxy so they decided to stay there when Amerie became pregnant.

She had given birth to their son 3 years ago and wanted to raise him in a safe environment so Purple and Pink city was the best choice.

They named him Ratchet and his fur was the same color as his father Kaden. When he reached 16 his father would test him to see how well he was with his combat skills but baby Ratchet preferred playing with mechanics than learn combat.

One day Kaden received a distressed call from his village on Fastoon. Alister ran over to see what was happening but it wasn't good news. The Djinn had planned an invasion on Fastoon to wipe out all of the remaining Lombax's. Many had already fallen and it wasn't looking good for the survivors. Kaden looked at Alister with a stern expression and they suited up in their Infernox Armor to go into battle for their Planet. Kaden would have to leave his wife and his son behind...

"Everything will be alright my love. Just stay here and protect yourself and our son. I will return when the fight is over and we can be a family again" Kaden whispered gently.

Amerie didn't reply but nodded and went back inside holding baby Ratchet. As Kaden and Alister departed for war she watched them from the kitchen window with a tear running down her pale cheek.

"Here we go again. Be strong and fight with honor" Alister had his head high as they blasted through the starry space but Kaden was upset and kept looking back at Planet Cerebella. What would he do if he fell and couldn't return? Nothing. Amerie would have to raise a young boy who didn't know his father.

"We'll be fine Kaden. We've survived the worst of situations, even near death so we will be back very soon after we destroy some Djinn ass" Alister tried to make his best friend feel better like he always did and they finally arrived at Fastoon.

They were too late. There was no one in sight and the village was in pieces. Possessions and items were in flames and the houses were wrecked. Among the devastation were hundreds of dead and bloody bodies.

"NO!" Kaden yelled. He felt failure and dishonour and the tears started flowing. Alister dropped to his knees and had tears for the first time in many years. He knew as well that they had failed. There was no living Lombax's around, the Djinn had wiped them out except for Kaden, Alister, Amerie and baby Ratchet. There was no traces of any Lombax in the Solana Galaxy except for the inhabitants on Fastoon and now there was only 4.

Alister found a transmission in the sand and called Kaden over to watch it with him. It was from the Djinn leader who had sent it to the army to attack. It contained a top secret message that showed the leader addressing his army to find the location of every Lombax in the Solana Galaxy and wipe them out. At the end it contained coordinates to the next location.

"What do they have against Lombax's?" Kaden asked.

"I don't know but it only gets worse" Alister replied in shock. Kaden looked at him with a worried expression.

"W...why what does it say?"

"It doesn't say anything but it contains coordinates"

"And...?"

"And the coordinates lead to Planet Cerebella. In Purple and Pink City"

Kaden jumped up and grabbed Alister on the arm. He dragged him towards the ship and took off immediately.

"We have to hurry Al! If they get to Amerie then we have no chance of survival. She is the only female Lombax alive!" Kaden yelled.

They were in Cerebella atmosphere and saw the Djinn ships scattered around a terrified city. Kaden and Alister jumped out and started to shoot down some of the Djinn army one by one on the way to their house. The Djinn didn't wear much armor so they were easy to kill but if one got a hold of you, you had no hope of getting out.

They reached their house and found a bunch of Djinn ransacking the inside. Kaden killed them hard with anger and Alister helped and covered him until he reached his wife.

After the Djinn were dead Kaden went inside the bedroom. Underneath the bed was a terrified Amerie holding onto baby Ratchet. They were safe. Kaden and Alister came on time before the Djinn had a chance of getting to them. Kaden put his arms around Amerie and pulled her in close.

"I hate to say it Amerie, but we can't keep Ratchet on a Planet that is traceable by the Djinn" Kaden whispered. He took baby Ratchet out of her arms and held him in his. Amerie put her hands on Kaden's shoulder and nodded in agreement to what he had to do. He had to take him to an uncharted Planet and keep him there until the Djinn were destroyed.

He placed Ratchet in his ship and took off to an uncharted Planet called Veldin. He said he would come back for him after he took out the Djinn and return to Amerie to be a normal family again. Ratchet looked up to him with big innocent green eyes and giggled. The little Lombax had no idea what was going on in his world and hopefully he wouldn't have to grow up through it all.

Kaden and baby Ratchet arrived on Planet Veldin in a place called Kyzil Plateau. There was an abandoned mechanic shed on a hill where Kaden thought was perfect to keep his precious baby hidden. He got down on his knees and held Ratchet tight before placing him in the corner.

He whispered:

Everything will be ok my son. Stay alive and out of sight here in this shed. Your mother is safe with Alister and I will return for you once I get rid of the wretched Djinn. I love you...

He placed him down in the corner and got up to leave. He had never cried so hard in his life. He now had to go back to Purple and Pink City to destroy the Djinn once and for all.
