The Hand that Fold

Vexus woke up at the time for her check up. She later got a message from Lina. She speculated from the ghost report that her story is a possible since Clockwork have power over time and has foreknowledge so, it is not that far of a stretch that this is his doing. However it only means that she should still be off duty as they are not sure of her health even with her successes.

"One thing is certain whatever his actions, his goal is strictly to protect time. If they were to conquer or destroy him the ramifications will take its toll. Who know if it happened already or will. Time travel it is already difficult speaking of it let alone starting to do anything involve with it." Vexus thought which gave her headache for doing it.

As she followed the doctor orders for five spins which was five days. It took her while to return to Cluster time. It was not had difficulty changing it was feeling that she felt that she had unfinished business. She knows that she needs to let it go but it is difficult to do. She starting to recall one her failed attempts for vengeance was to out shine XJ-9, The one that had caused her to fall. She admitted she liked the limelight more than having vengeance. The time was short and her subjects were easily fickle just by age gap with someone who can shape shift.

When the doctor told her that she was physically healthy she leaved the hospital and struggle to fly to an oasis to get her thoughts together. She flew over a lake to get a good look at her reflection. "Why did I think those student ingrates were acceptable? Have I fallen that far? I don't know which is more pitiful for a queen of galaxies is reduce to..." she thought until a flash sound was heard. Android-Lita appeared and said "Greetings Vexus, I see you starting to work on your flight"

Vexus looked around and slowly flew toward her "It has been debatable of your loyalties but I am in the side that trusts you. I gave you task for you to feel accomplishment. I could have given them to another but those mission seems to the stuff you wanted to do. I had precautions for most situations but I was confident that you would achieve them. I want to bring back the Vexus that rescued me or reward her for all the good she has done. It is time to come home" Lita proclaimed

"What of the ones on Earth?" Vexus asked "One battle at a time you are not alone. You already made path for others to follow now you just need to trust them. You have seen what they can do." Lita answered

Vexus paused for the moment to ponder "What of my reputation?" she asked. "The secret has already been revealed. They are still not happy that you never told them and more for not returning the chips. Vega is still angry for you blaming it on XJ9, but she is confuse of why you want her in Cluster." Lita replied

"I will explain if she is ready since she is now the queen I lost a lot of myself during my exiled." Vexus said as she started to shape shifted

"You weren't exiled you ran away. You are very elusive and they want an answer of why. We talk about it later. How do you feel watching the sun set? I know a good spot that looks very beautiful"

"What if I told you I am not Vexus?"

"You said you were not yourself I felt that my supervision would suffice. If you are Vexus consider it more recuperating and if you are not I will know already and I would ask are you hostile, which you would either answer now or later."

As Vexus shape shifted to the form of QD2 "Where in the spot is sunset the most beautiful" Vexus said with a smile.
