I couldn't believe it, in mere moments Cyclonis had ended a war… or at the very least halted it for the time being. I stood beside her awestruck watching as the crowd took in this new information. Most seemed excited that there might be peace while the older more hardened citizens looked as if they might burst into flame in anger at this, these individuals I choose not to linger on.

I was so overwhelmed with happiness that I did what was probably the most embarrassing thing that I could have done.

I wrapped my arms around Cyclonis's waist surprising her and giving her a quick but passionate kiss on the lips.

In hindsight I probably should have remembered that I was a sky knight and that she was the enemy that we had been fighting for years

And I was making out with her

On national television

While all of Atmos was listening in

… Stupid hormones

Ten feet away

The dark ace watched as his one proud and fierce master Cyclonis, a girl that had once threated to destroy Tera Bogaton when Repton had talked back, was reduced to nothing more than an emotional child at the hands of the sky night piper. "Have your moment now master. But you'd better be careful you're not the only one that knows the laws of our Tera" he thought while putting on his trademark vindictive smile

Back with Cyclonis and Piper

Having the girl you have feelings for kiss you is great, but not so great when you realize you're doing it in front of all the people of your Tera… still totally worth it.

As much as it pained me I slowly and gently untangled her arms from my waist trying my best not to fall back into them and resume kissing those dark lips of hers.

So I did the only thing that I could think of and said "As you can see my fiancée, the sky knight known as Piper is already showing her approval of this cease of hostilities and our upcoming marriage, now if you will excuse us we have much to do." I say while doing all I can not to look to nervous.

I turn to leave but not before noticing two things one: the way the way the crowd had erupted into cheers at watching two girls make out showing that apparently Atmos was more excepting then Cyclonis had thought . And two the way four oddly clothed men seemed to study the two girls before vanishing into the crowd. "Come on Piper we have a white flag to fly" said Cyclonis taking Piper by the hand and leading her back inside.

Out of the corner of her eye Cyclonis noticed four purple and green birds flying off into the clouds of Atmos

"So your ending a war huh?" asked snapping me back to attention "yes" I say as we make our way inside the cheering crowd now chanting our names she turns to me and asks "not that I'm suspicious but why?" she asks with a questioning look. I look down and mutter my answer "what was that" she asks. I repeat my response a bit louder but still not enough for her to hear.

I see her get frustrated at this and I smile, "come one Cyclonis just tell me already" she pleads in a pouty tone. I give in to her at this and say "alright it's simple really, I had to make sure you'd stay safe at all cost so naturally ending the war was logical" I say while looking back down at the ground embarrassed by what I had said.

I feel her hands on my face as she raises my head back up and I see slight tears in her eyes. "You'd end an entire war, ceasing a decade of anger, loss and fighting just so that you could be sure I was safe?" she says as a tear rolls down her dark brown cheeks before it's wiped away by her hand "that's probably the most sweet and romantic thing I've ever heard" and in the second time in mere minutes I found myself kissing her yet again.

I must say if this was what she's was going to be like for the next few months I probably would have gotten her pregnant sooner.

A nearby Tera

"I had a feeling she was the one" says one robed man

"Oh please you say that about everybody you see" says another robed man

"Still too early to tell" says the third man before turning to the last man of their group

"And your thoughts Arrwyen"

"Let's just say things are finally going to be interesting"

The Condor

Arrow walked into the engine room of the condor where Junko was desperately trying to fix the ship engines "Junko what's the damage" asks Arrow looking around the room "it's bad Arrow, whatever that night crawler did before he left it was bad half the stuff in here is broken we'll be lucky if the ship doesn't fall apart at the seams" says Junko

"The crystal converter" asks arrow

"Slashed to pieces"

"Engine?"

"Crushed"

"Power crystals?" asks Arrow with his hope hanging by a thread

Junko takes a look before a slim smile comes to his face

"Enough still charged to get us to a nearby tera"

"Good enough, Junko I don't care if you have to hold this ship together yourself keep it in the air" says Arrow before leaving to head to the bridge to talk with Stork

"Junko says we can make it to a nearby Tera but that's about it"

"Oh good, we're flying knowing we might drop out of the sky and die a horrible death in the wastelands at any moment." Says stork

"Stork what is the nearest Tera" asks Arrow thinking that their pilot might be having a trademark panic attack.

"Good news for once its Tera Mech the home of the shipwrights."

Arrow turns to Stork and looks out the window to Atmos and thinks

Hang in there piper we're coming to save you.
