“My son Adriel, now that you have come of age, it is time I teach you the proper ways of the Agnus. In this entire kingdom, you are the only person aside myself who can activate the helion drive that we use to dominate the eastern plains. We are the mightiest of all the five houses in the empire for one reason. What do you think that reason is?” Agnus Kai asked Adriel. Sitting on the royal prince throne to the right side of his father’s, Adriel sat with his legs crossed and his attention on the fight below. Without turning around to look at his father, he shook his head and said. “Is that not because you are so great father? You have raised a mighty chivalry of orbital knights and an entire armada of foot soldiers that can face all of the four families combined in battle and still hold their ground.” Agnus Kai started laughing uncontrollably, extending his arm and placing it on the shoulder of Adriel. “This is all true, but the reason why we are so mighty, the reason why the rest of
Astra and Elena sat with captain Jiro to have further discussions of two other two shelters and how the shelter was able to develop very quickly and adapt to life underground. “So how do you keep the people fed for six months? I know the shelters are packed with canned food and protein bars but they ought to have been exhausted by now considering the number of people you have down here.” Astra asked. The soldier who obviously loves his job and from what Astra could see, he actually excels at it. She took a more careful look at the man as he excuses himself for a minute and try to help an old man on a wheelchair. His dark black hair and glistering eyes tell her that he must be in his mid thirties, being a captain at that age is already a great feat, his looks are a little beyond average and he keeps himself fit for most part of what can be achieved by a man living underground. He came back and sat with them as the evacuation continues ten people at a time. “We merely grow vegetabl
Astra and the remaining soldiers jumped into the rail tunnel and started their almost thirty hours journey, they organized themselves so in a passion that Astra and some soldiers from the Emerald ghosts lead them in front, where captain Jiro and two of his men were helping them navigate the tunnels, while Elena and the remaining emerald ghosts soldiers were in the back keeping an eye out for any alien that may be lurking in there. “Astra and Jiro have been discussing all the time, she has been smiling and periodically laughing, what is that man telling her like this? Is he really making a move on her?” Eric asked Elena and the Japanese soldiers from the shelter who were close enough to them heard him, they turned around smiling. “Poor bastard, he would have luck flirting with any lady in the entire world and he had to pick the absolute wrong one…. Hahahaha.” Rhoda said and started laughing uncontrollably. “What do you mean by he picked the absolute wrong one?” Elena quickly asked
Astra asked Peter to gather all of the people around in the center of the outer parts of the shelter where five hovering buses have been verified to be in functioning conditions, she has called Carter and the fortress a few hours ago and have given him the exact GPS coordinates of the Fuji shelter gate where the cruisers will land after the cloaking system on the ships have been repaired. “We are bringing the lead phantom cruiser this time around. We will need the big guns on it should a situation like the last one happen! So be ready for a fight too.” Carter said over the call. “I am always ready for a fight.” Astra responded. She led Elena to the side just before she asked peter to gather everyone in the shelter around in the parking section. She asked her to hold the new HELL-blade and pull the trigger the sits on her thumb, she did exactly as Astra has asked her to, teaching her all the basics of the blade and asking her to keep it, “you may want to switch your rifle to a small
Carter was hesitant at first. He wanted to be absolutely sure that Astra was dead before he makes his decision of leaving the area to the fortress before whatever attacked just a minute ago fires the second attack. ‘I may be scientist by choice, but above all of that, I am here as a soldier and Astra may be special, but she is not worth thousands of lives.’ He thought and finally decide to keep going head on without turning back. A few minutes later, the five phantom cruisers landed and docked the floating fortress, with the main cruiser having one of its engines destroyed, they started heading straight back to Quartz sixty island, now renamed Base Zero. It has been two months since the emerald Ghosts have left in the quest to rescue survivors from the Japanese shelters outside the planes of Tokyo Giga cities. From the far distances, none of them could recognize the island anymore, the walls around it have been erected even taller that they were and mounted on them are even more emer
Looking at them now, these are just kids, not like I am not one myself, just that my life and theirs are not the same; on a regular day, they will be in high school or possibly a year or two in college so why am I here on the top of a rooftop in an alien infested city tied down on a bed and being asked questions I will love to ask the aliens myself.“I would love for the aliens to tell me the answer to your questions kid, I don’t get why you are pointing your weapons at a bound person who has been in your care for….” Astra was saying and trying to check which day it is and determine how long she has been passed out, but realizes that her smart bracelet is not on her wrist anymore.“Holy shit! Where the heck is my bracelet? This is not funny kids, give it back. It is the only way for me to contact the fortress and get my guys to come pick me off of here.” She shouted at them.The scared gi
**(BASE ZERO)**The sun has just risen and it is six o’clock in the morning. Carter has just been woken up by a call on his secured bracelet channel from captain Andrew’s office. With sleep in his eyes, he managed to stay woke and answered the call, knowing that Andrew only call him early in the morning when there is an emergency, Carter already expects something big.“Hey Carter! Wake up and get over here at the excavation site, the workers were mining that dense chunk of the moon that fell on the island and found something, you need to get here and see it.” Andrew said.“For God’s sake Andrew, just get some of the geologists and analysts to tell you what kind of mineral or space rock it is, you don’t have to wake me up this early in the morning when you know that I have spent the last five nights in my laboratory developing the what will help your career reach its maximum height.

Nat, Kana, and the rest of their colleagues watched yet another unbelievable thing that Astra has done, one she has done. As if falling out of the sky naked, glowing white light out of her body and literally telekinetically controlling two glowing blades are not enough surprises. Now she has leapt out of a building forty storeys high with no parachute.All the seven of them watched her fall all the way close to the ground before she pulled out her blades, activated them. Astra put the blades just below her feet, using them as gliders and telekinetically moving them forward.‘This sure looks like the flying blade technique from ancient Chinese myths. I will name it that and I know Elena and Khan will want to kill me out of jealousy.’ She thought as she glided back upwards to avoid drawing the attention of the crawlers on the street.After passing a few blocks to her right and left, she finally found the building w
