‘The floor is shaking? No, everything is shaking! Could this be an earthquake?’ Astra thought as soon as she woke up.

“No, Earth quakes don’t make sounds like this! Carter! How long have I been out and what is going on?” Astra asked Carter, who has just finished cutting the emerald crystal to fit in the black ring at the center of the laboratory.

“Astra, you are finally awake. You have been out for just a couple of hours. It is the aliens. Something really gigantic is tearing through our atmosphere at incredible speed. The computer just calculated where it will land.” Carter said as he rushes to where Astra sits on the bed. He placed his hand on her forehead and shook his head in disapproval.

“You have a fever. You need to stay here and recover. I am taking the squad with me once again, this time to monitor and observe the what the aliens are bringing with them.” Carter s

    Dizzy and completely lost, Astra finally opens her eyes. She was lying flat on the floor, with her body back in her control. She makes the effort and sat up, there is a blinding bright light all around her that had blinded her eyes. It took her a moment for her eyes to readjust to the ambient light.‘what is this place?’ she wonders as her eyes scan the surrounding around her. She was sitting on the floor of a gigantic indoor space with a large pool of blue-colored water. There are long and thick white pillars supporting the blue roof and all of the rest of the room’s floor is decorated in gold.“Where in the world is this? I clearly remember being in Base zero last, but this place; there’s something off about it.” she murmured to herself and finally stand on her feet. Now that she stood up, she finally conceived how large the room is. It is about the size of a basketball court with multiple elevated diving platforms.Having waked around it, the room was empty and filled with different

Shina sits in the chamber of darkness alone, without any visible guards or palace decoration as the rest of the four kings usually have.The chamber of darkness has been the only place in the entirety of the empire where no one other than the direct royal blood descendants of the house has ever set foot in. Shina is the only king in the five hundred years of the empire’s history that no one truly knows anything about.For as far as the rest of the kings are concerned, Shina could be a man or a woman, since the only requirement for ruling in the empire is strength, and Shina does possess that. No one ever knows the history of the Estelona house, their kings never make their house matters public, the queens were never seen in public, neither the children.The assassin that knocked prince Adriel Agnus

    “So here is the deal, I know I already told you that I am a prince but I have not told you anything about my current position or situation in the empire, anyway, since you saved my life despite being an alien who has nothing to do with me, I am going to show you something you will remember even after you go back to your world.” Adriel said.Astra was not sure of what the prince jus said, but she could only agree as since she has no other choice. ‘I can always take his stuff and blend in with the rest of the people if I have to. If he has an ulterior motive, I will end his life before anyone learns of my identity.’ She thought in her head as the two of them exit the underground pool chamber.Astra was expecting an alien city full of alien architecture and technology. But as soon as they were outside, Astra was met with complete darkness, engulfing everything. Aside from the night lights, she can see that extension for as far as her eyes can see. There is nothing in else visible except

    “I want to help you go home as soon as possible but before we do that, there is something I must do. My father will be making an announcement in the next ten days that I will be taking a hellish trial that will certainly kill me. It is so impossible to pass and I can only chose one guard to go with me.” Adriel said.“So you want me to be that guard?” Astra asked.Adriel walked in front of her and gave her a large book on his hand and said.“Yes, once I pass the trial, I will become a worthy heir of the Agnus house and with that, I will have the authority and access to warp technologies that can help you get back home. But It wont be as easy as it is sounding right now.” Adriel answered.Astra collected the book and checked it’s tittle.“The Origin? What is this about?” she asked.“You read it and tell me! I will be in my chambers sleeping, there is food on the table and a room at the end of the library, you can use it if you want. Do not roughen up the book, it belonged to my late mot

    Adriel walked to the bench that Astra was sitting on and sat, he grabbed the book in front of her and dragged it on across the table to his front before he finally said.“Listen Astra, I know you may not trust me, being the prince of an empire that is currently invading your home planet but listen to me please. My people believe that Terra belongs to us and for a good reason. If there is anyone that wants to settle a coexistence plan with the Terrans, it is me. I have so much to tell you about but for now, I want to ask for your trust.” He said as he stares at Astra.At first she wants to demand he tells her everything before she could trust him but she realize the seriousness in his eyes and the determination in his gestures.“Lets say that I trust you, what exactly do you want me to do?” she asked.“You remember that I told you about my father Agnus Kai right?” he said.“The king of this territory yes, you said we will meet him in ten days.” Astra answered.Adriel stood up and looke

    As Astra watched the hands of the female guard shatter the shield, she knew immediately who her opponent would be. ‘I must watch carefully how she fights and come up with effective ways to counter her attacks or there is no chance for me at all.’ She thought.Back on the ring in the middle of the arena, the black knight has regained balance and stood back up, he threw away the shattered fragments of the shield he is still holding and grabbed the large club he is holding with two hands now; he dashed back towards her at full speed, this time around however, the female guard started running towards him as well.The two of them met in the middle of the ring with the black knight jumping into the air as high as a person his size could get, at the peak of his jump he placed the club on his shoulder and started swinging it sideways as hard as he could.Astra was expecting the strong female guard to use her hands to block the large metal club since she was strong enough to shatter the shield

    As soon as Astra and Adriel went back to the his castle, she walked straight to the library and washed up, when she came out of the shower a servant was waiting for her with some clothing that Adriel has personally asked them to get for her.She collected the clothes and dismissed the servant; as soon as she finished dressing, she went back to the library reading area and found him waiting for her.“You are finally out, I thought you would take forever to come out of your room. By the way, you should know that although I know this is just a disguise appearance, I should let you know that you look gorgeous in the dress!” he said.Astra was in a dress that resembles what she would call a gown by standards back on earth, but she is not sure why Adriel will want her to wear such a fancy dress the night before they embark on a perilous journey that is so dangerous to be used as a yardstick for evaluating might, courage and ability of he next king of an important house in the empire.”“Well

    The three other leaders looked at each other hearing the manner in which king Near spoke to them. They immediately realized that they might have fallen into the wrong side.They turned to king Skar again and looked at him without saying a word to him. Then he began to speak again when he was sure that the last thing he said sank into their heads just the way he wants them to understand “first of all. I am going to be the supreme leader of all the houses combined together. The three of you are going to be my subjects that will answer to me. If you agree to that, you can go back and tell your subjects and also denounce your throne as kings. This is the only condition on which you will be joining the salvation ship to Terra, otherwise, you stay here and die”Shina, Jeroth and Akaris were speechless for a while trying to be sure that king Skar isn’t joking or mistaking. They kept looking at him in the most awkward manner. King Jeroth stood up and walked towards skar, then he turned after

    “The aliens are getting ready for a full scale invasion. That thing you see in the sky is a portal. And they are coming very soon. So the base needs as much soldiers as possible” sergeant Brook said.“I see. As you can see, I have a full army and we are ready to fight. We don’t need to join forces with anybody” Hector replied.“You know how strong the aliens are. All humans must fight together. We have weapons. Very sophisticated weapons” sergeant Brook said.“Am sorry. You have to leave now” Hector replied.Disappointed and unsure of who these people are, sergeant Brook simply stood up and turned back. He walked away without looking back.Back at the camp, everyone was disappointed by the number of people that formed the human federation base army. Astra assigned sergeant Brook to train the new recruits which they began immediately.**CENTAURI**King Adriel has finished all necessary arrangements for the final invasion.

    Astra has not done what she is expected to do but for some reason the primitives are cheering her up for cutting loose the man she is supposed to kill.The crowd is cheering because to them it takes an extra courage and lots of ruthlessness to kill the person and rip the persons heart after a fight with the person. And that is what they all thought Astra was about to do.Astra is now standing behind the man who is facing the other directions and backing her. The man seems to be a warrior or a fighter somewhere because of his good boxer’s standing position.Kira and Mita are standing right in front of him. Whole Astra is standing behind the man. As the man is turning and trying to find the best standing position, which doesn’t seem to be happening, he felt a person behind him. He attacked the person behind him by swinging his elbow to the back, but Astra was quick to block it with her two hands.She jumped and kick him from behind so hard that he fell from too of the small flat rock to

    Few hours later, it was morning and time to keep moving no where. There is no direction and not any single form of guide for Astra and her friends. The only thing they want to do is to stay as far away from the aliens as possible.They got up quickly and began to walk without knowing where they are headed.“While we think we are running away from the aliens, we might actual be going toward them” kira said.“at least we will know the way we shouldn’t go” Astra replied.While commander Tyra and his drone soldiers are seriously searching, they seem to have gone the wrong way because Astra, kira and Mita have been walking for more than five hours now hoping that they ate heading the right way. Or anywhere far from the aliens.About five more miles on the same direction, Astra and her companions sighted the shore of a lake about ten metres out of the woods with fine white sand and a bright gentle flowing water.They were so happy that they could not wait to get there.

    Astra is surrounded by more than two hundred enemies of different kind. And everyone of them wants to kill her by all means necessary.The room is very wide and empty, except for the many dead ninja guards of the southern group. She kept looking around trying to find a way to escape this difficult situation.The only openings in the room are highly protected and guarded to prevent her from coming out at all cost. The walls are thick African mud style that even a bullet cannot penetrate. The only softer part of the room is up through the roof.She looked up and tried to examine it carefully. At this moment, she has figured out her best route to escape but she needs the perfect time to do it which she doesn’t know when and how it will happen.Commander Tyra has just stepped a foot on the frame of the door. He stood there and looked all around the room. He knows that the humans from the human federation base are capable of invincibility, he could feel Astra’s presence in the room, althou

For the first time ever, a simple meeting looks like a war is about start.No one is clear about why all the leaders came with a whole army. But Bolo and several others know that it is definitely not a coincidence that the three leaders came with lots of guards.The meeting is in Bolo’s palace and he is suppose to be the most feared, but today, he seems like the weakest and least feared. But this is only because he has relieved his massive submissive guards.Few minutes later, when everyone was tired of waiting, Bolo stepped into the meeting hall. His arrival is so not what anyone expected it to look like.There were no much guards standing by, or any form of adequate protection any where in the whole palace, and now, Bolo has stepped into a meeting room where no one is smiling with nothing but a female white girl on his side.When Bolo entered, a few people in the hall murmured and

    Everyone has gathered to know the reason why Mita screamed so loud.The two dead guards is one thing no one has ever imagined because no one has the guts to cross such a line.The only persons or person who can do a thing like this does not leave any where near Rigasa. It is obvious that this is an attempt on the life of Bolo.The chief guard of the palace or any other person is not aware of the incident. And these are the only guards killed.When nobody seems to have an idea, kira finally revealed that to his father that he has installed secret surveillance cameras all around the palace.“I can take a look at the camera recordings. All we need to know will in it. I am sure” kira said.The surveillance camera recordings weren’t too difficult to access. In less than five minutes, kira has began rewinding the recorded footage trying to arrive at the estimated time of the incidence..When he finally found the footage, Bolo, Astra and Mita who were standing beside kira all saw what really
