The girls move into lightspeed, bright lights are all around them and they pass multiple systems.
“This is fine, but not as fast as the portal” Valerie says in a funny tone.
Nora runs up to her and holds her tight.
“Don’t relax yet. They will be following us, as I’m pretty sure they can still track us” says with caution, as she pulls out her hand and shows the tracker that both of them have inside.
“How are we gonna remove this?” she sounds worried. Valerie puts her hands on her waist to think.
“These are powerful magic. But can be removed by a good incision. We will have to go to a doctor when we will arrive”.
OBSIDIAN KINGDOM
THE 5TH REGION OF THE UNITED KINGS
Their ship arrive to the borders of the Obsidian Kingdom. Not far from them, there’s the station that everyone that is to pass has to go through. The space behind them distorts and that means only one thing; the Masters are about to arrive.
Valerie takes the wheel and goes close to the station and a WAIT sign appears. Just behind them, the two ships are coming closer, ready to fire.
A soldier comes in from the station to investigate the ship and Nora lets him in. They guy waves at them as a sign of hello. He is wearing a full uniform, black with light blue lights and a full face helmet.
He pulls a tool and searches around with it. He is looking for criminals or bio weapons. As he can’t find anything, he gets closer to the girls.
The man removes his helmet, and a creature appears inside it. He is a Gjinn, His skin is light blue, and on his cheeks are black shining dots, like the stars. Valerie has heard of them and their connection with spirituality, as the come from the Mystic Kingdom.
(Mystic Kingdom=the 7th Region of the Tirrenia Galaxy).
“I’m Talock Gjon a soldier of her Majesty, Aurra Siona, Queen of the Obsidian Kingdom. I’m here to investigate. State who you are and your business, please”.
His voice was kind. Valerie sits up straight and speaks with a lady’s voice, “I’m Valerie, this is Nora. We come here to find work and home”.
Talock isn’t satisfied though. “No last names? Where you came from?”. Valerie doesn’t answer, not sure what to say.
“It’s Nora Mua. I’m Noa, my kind lies in the Emerald Kingdom, planet Rinasa”. He looks at Valerie, frozen.
“Sir, I’m an orphan, I have no name” she says with bitterness.
“She is with me! She came to my world for help. Guardians chase us trying to recruit us! We refuse! But, they won’t leave us!”, Nora starts crying and her cute face is irresistible. Talock goggles and pats her head.
“No need to worry! These filths have no business here and won’t be able to get you. You may both pass!”.
The girls thank him with all their heart and the man makes it out of their ship. They get the OK to proceed but they get stopped as their ship shakes and starts to move back. The monitor is beeping and the screen shows that a hook has entered in the back and dragging them.
“It’s the Guardians!”.
Valerie tries to push forward, but their ship is too little to resist.
“What are we gonna do?”.
Two small fight ships pass them by, going to the back of their ship. The station establishes a connection with them and Talock says, “Don’t worry, we got your back!”.
The ships are quick and land two shots on the Guardian warship, as a warning.
“Sir, they wanna establish a connection” says one of the Paladins. They accept the offer and a voice says, “Guardians, this is a warning shot. You have no right to cross these borders, and if you follow, a war will take place”.
Odel steps in and tries to talk to them. “We know we have no business here but, in that ship there are people that belong to us”.
“Trying to enslave young girls now? They got accepted in our Kingdom, so now they have our protection. Stay out of it or you will be killed”.
Kion curses and is about to fire on the ships. Vina raises her hand, stopping him. “We can’t”.
“But, they are ours! They are Guardians and these monkeys put their noses into things they don’t belong!”.
“You don’t get it. If we tell them two Guardians escaped, that will put a bad name on us and make us look vulnerable. Also, they won’t care. They will take them for themselves and use them as they please, torture them maybe for information. We will be compromised. They should receive divine punishment by the Lord, whatever he sees fit”.
“Vina is right, we have to find another way” Odel agrees. Kion growls but he too understands the situation. They unleash the ship and turn around, going into FTL.
