'There it is' Veronica said while watching out of the window. Eto opened his eyes, still sleepy from his rest while he was trying to focus on what Veronica saw. When he saw what she meant, his eyes opened weider and he was excited in an instant.

Before them in the dark space they were travelling was now a big blue planet.

'Wow' Eto said with a big smile on his face. He almost climbed over the controls to get closer to the window.

'Is that our destination?' he asked Veronica without taking his eyes off the window.

'Yes' she said. 'That is the planet Capgelu by the map of the ship.'

She pressed on for the ship to enter the atmosphere and she activated the ability for the computer to find a suitable landing spot.

The clouds were thick when they flew in but soon they saw the ground of the planet.

'Arriving at port Perdita' the computer said while moving closer to the planet.

Eto and Veronica both now saw what the planet was like.

Huge blue mountains and barren fields of blue rocks and dirt covered most of the planet.

Right in front of them they saw a little town on the foot of a mountain with a huge castle towering over them a few hundred meters away higher up on the mountain.

'Carrier, state your business' sounded through the computer. Eto almost fell off his chair from the sudden noise.

'Port Perdita, this is a cargo ship from Border, requesting to land' Veronica answered through a mic. The moment she said where they were from she immediately regretted it.

The radio went silent for a few seconds but soon the voice said 'permission to land. Find the green light to land your carrier.'

Veronica looked for a light and soon she saw a green light flashing close by the edge of the city.

She ship came closer to the town and soon Veronica saw that something was up. She looked at Eto who was still looking surprised for landing on a new planet.

The hanger from which the green light erupted opened his roof just like the hangar on Borner.

Even though she had to look which controls were necessary to land, Veronica soon found them and guided the ship on the ground.

'Whatever you do, keep quit' she told Eto who looked surprised.

'Why? What will I do?' he asked and followed Veronica who walked back to the door of the ship.

'Nothing, just stay quiet till I figured out in which situation we were in' she replied.

She could feel the cold coming from outside and quickly grabbed the safety jackets Eto found and put it on. It was a thick orange jacket that would keep her warm.

She pushed the buttons on the side of the door to open them and she could feel a cold breeze entering the ship.

Down on the ground, next to the ship was an old man standing.

His hair was grey and sticking out on all sides. He wore a brown coat and rested on a cane.

'Welcome to port Perdita. You must be survivors from Borner?' the man asked gently.

Veronica didn't know what to think of the man but she slowly nodded.

'That damn Generation Zero. Always making a mess of things' the old man almost yelled.

A young girl ran towards them and grabbed the old man's arm.

'Grandpa, don't get all pumped up. It's bad for your heart' she girl said with a squeaky voice.

Veronica looked at the girl and Eto stood behind her, taking an interest in the old man and the girl.

'I'm sorry sweetie but I can't help it. Those troublemakers should be dealt with' he man said in frustration but he soon calmed down like the little girl said. She had brown hair like Veronica and big pink ribbons wrapped in them.

'I'm sorry we had to make a stop here but' Veronica said but the old man interrupted.

'No problem girl' the old man said and he waved to both her and Eto to follow him.

'It's cold outside and we have warm soup inside' the man said while walking away.

'Soup? Like real food?' Eto asked, thinking about the food bars and already following the man.

Veronica hit her head with her hand but nobody saw it. Luckily the old man and the girl didn't seem bad and she too began to follow them.

The old man brought them to his home, next to the hangar.

The houses were round and low when they stood inside but huge pipes with warm water were attached to the walls to keep it warm.

'Look, look' the little girl said and she pulled Eto with her to a small room. 'Here is the soup you wanted' knowing that the boy had a huge interest in the soup while they walked here.

'You can take the coat off dear' the old man said while ticking against the pipes with his cane.

'Great' Veronica said and she took her coat off, embracing the warmth in the house.

'Luckily it's warm here. We didn't expect for Capgelu to be an ice planet' she said while she walked after the man.

'Oh but it is not an ice planet my dear' the man said, taking a seat on a coach in the shape of a half circle.

'But the cold outside?' Veronica asked. 'And the blue mountains and ground?'

'That's Capgelu dirt for you' the old man said smiling. 'Capgelu always had blue dirt and rocks but it's not an ice planet, oh no' he said and with those words his smile faded.

'But how come it's so cold?' Veronica asked and the old man looked at her.

'Unlucky for us, port Perdita is now under the authority of Ased.'

'Ased?' Veronica asked and the old man nodded.

'He came a while back, holding the town hostage with his devilish star shard powers.'

The old man stopped because Eto and the little girl came in with the bowls of soup.

'Grandpa, this is Eto. He is a star shard user' the girl said with a big smile and the old man looked at Eto with fear in his eyes.

Eto, you idiot, is what Veronica thought, remembering that she told him to keep quiet.
