Evading rain of beam fires. Sebastian and his friends were being chased by the Sardasian empire guards.

“Persistence aren’t they?” said Travis.

Sebastian spotted a house not far from them. He motioned at his friends to hide there. Fortunately the place was empty. He gestured at his friends to stay quite. Hearing the Sardasian guards ran passed them, they all sighed in relieves.

"Why you punched their king?" barked Rob.

"That pig groped my butt!" Enid yelled.

"And he's rude too," Shanna added.

"He's the enemy of all woman," Santi muttered.

"Agreed.." Muara flicked her glistening hair.

"Ssh.." Sebastian waving his hand before whispering to Viv "Get to our landing craft and contact the high elder, informs him we failed the negotiation with the new Sardasian king."

"Yeah, thanks to Enid," Rob mumbled.

She glared at him.

"And bring our landing craft to the rendezvous point. we'll meet you there.."

Viv gave a thumbs up and left the house, he flew under the shadow between the buildings.

Sebastian turned to Enid "You know.. when he touched you.. i want to punched that pig too.."

"Oh.. Sebas.." she blushed.

"Geez, get a room you two.." Rob rolled his eyes.

Shanna and Santi smiled at them; Alexander shook his head.

"Who are you!" yelled someone behind them.

They all turned around, a Sardasian woman was standing at the other door. Muara and Rob moved to grabbed her but Sebastian told them to stand down.

He raised his hands "Madam.. please, i could explain.."

"Thief!! Guards! Help!" she screamed "Help! Thief!"

"Please, madam.. calm down, we are-" before Sebastian could finished his sentences, a beam blasted trough the window and hit the wall beside him. Seeing the melted wall, he gulped before looking at his friends and yelled "Run!"

"Found them!" shouted the Sardasian guard.

"King Hamshoink wants their head!" the other grunted.

Evading the beam fire, they all fled the house. Travis about unsheathed his corinth to shoot back, but Sebastian forbade him. Alexander suggested they split up and met at the rendezvous point.

"Okay! see you there!"

Sebastian, Enid, Shanna and Rob used the alleyway, while the others went through the central garden. They kept running until they found a rundown house near the city border.

He peeked out the crevice and saw the Sardasian guards ran passing them.

"I think we are safe, for now.."

He sniffed something, he looked at his friends "This house.. smell like sulfur huh?"

Enid’s eyes widen "Your beard on fire!"

“Whaaa..” He swatted his beard with his hands to put out the fire.

Shanna took a bottle from her bag and doused him with fari juice . Rob tried hard to concealed his laughter.

"Thanks.." said Sebastian

"You're welcome," she smiled.

“Here..” Enid gave him a napkin, she was trying not to laugh.

After wiping his face, he peeked out the crevice again, the coast was clear. He motioned at his friends to followed behind him. He opened the door and pointed at the dark alley. Guided by his wristband, they quickly reached the outskirt of the city, few guards patrolling the area.

"Now go!" He waved his hand when the guards went to the other way.

They ran into the forest, arriving at rendezvous point just in time when Viv Saven landed their craft. Looking back at the city, where are the others.. he wondered.

A beam fire nearby, Viv flew higher and informed him he saw the others and the Sardasian were on their tail.

"Viv, prepares to depart!"

Viv nodded and flew to the cockpit. Sebastian also told the others to wait at the cockpit with Viv, however they refused and wanted to stay there at the ramp.

They could see their friends coming out from the trees. Alexander was carrying Muara, her leg was bleeding. The guards followed behind them, shooting at them. Sebastian told everyone to unsheathed their corinths and shoot at their pursuer.

Under fire, the Sardasian guards hid behind the trees, this gave time for Alexander and the others to boarded the craft. Sebastian helped him carrying Muara inside and told Rob to closed the ramp.

He talked over his wristband "Viv! quick! Depart!" Their craft trembled as they flew to the sky, "Hang on to something!"

They left the planet atmosphere and boarded their ship waiting for them outside the orbit. They all ran to the bridge while Alexander and Santi carried Muara to the infirmary. Rob sat at the helms and quickly steered their ship away from the planet.

"No, Sardasian’s ship, in sight" Viv checking the radar when they were outside the star system.

Everyone sighed in relieves.

"I, sent the, message to the, high elder."

"What did the high elder says?" Rob asked.

"High, elder Su'ud, was ammused, hearing Enid, punched the king," he twirled "and high elder, ordered wishes star, to head back, home."

Shanna looked worried "Are we getting punished?"

Viv shook his body "High elder, said not to worry, they will sent, other team to handle the Sardasian. It is, an order, for all human, to return home, as soon as possible."

Sebastian stared at his friends. They also confused with the order, but he told Rob to steered their ship back to their home.

"Roger, Boss!" said Rob "Viv calculates our path."

Sebastian heard the door opened, Alexander, Santi and Muara entering the bridge. They sat on their seats, Muara's leg was bandaged.

"I'm fine.. don't worry.." flicking her hair when he asked her.

Viv checking the computer, "Calculating, done, boss."

Rob turned their ship around and sped up; Sebastian relayed the high elder order to Alexander, Santi and Muara.

"Why is the high elder summons all of you human?" Muara wondered.

"Sounds urgent," said Enid "did something happened?"

"What do you think?" Santi asked Sebastian.

He rubbed his beard "We'll find out later. Rob, how long we'll reach home?"

After activating the auto pilot, he replied "About 2 cycles. Hey! let's continue our last game."

"Muara, you should rest," said Alexander as he stood up from his seat.

"Where are you going?" Rob perplexed.

"Sleep," he left the bridge.

"Hey.."

Muara also left the, followed by Santi and Travis.

"Oh come on.. we're about to conquer that dungeon and get the treasure," he turned to the others still there "Let's play, pleaseeee.. come on.."

Sebastian chuckled. He stood up and said "Alright, alright, but that Velduran king's hammer is mine."

"Deal!"

"Viv, help, too!" he raised his stubby hand.

"Woohoo! Viv! you're the best bard!" Rob cheered.

"I'll make drinks and snacks," said Enid.

"Me want leat nuggets," Shanna beamed.
