Angy was currently seating on a small rock up ahead and had a slightly bored look.
“You’re truly as fast as they say you are,” Co captain Davidson voiced in surprise after finding out she had been here for hours.
“How long till the spacecraft arrives?” Angy questioned.
“One hour left,” Davidson responded.
“What about Aildris and Glade?” She questioned while looking around.
“They must be close by… I should be able to contact the command from here and let them know of our status so we don’t have to spend any longer time in this dump,” Co captain Davidson stated as he began tapping on the device in front of him.
It turned out they were unable to contact the command since they had acquired the device or this whole situation would have ended already.
This checkpoint was the only place that made it position for their connection to reach outerspace so they could finally give a report.
“Why don’t we wait for Aildris and Glade to be back with the other two first,” Angy voiced out.
“Because as soon as they know we have acquired device, nothing stops them from taking further actions so the more we delay, the longer they have to stall,” Captain Spark explained.
“Hey its actually connecting,” Davidson voiced as the call started going through.
“They’re coming,” E.E suddenly voiced out as he spotted figures approaching from the east area.
Everyone turned to stare in that direction as they heard that.
“Hold up…”
“Something doesn’t seem right,”
Elevora and E.E voiced at the same time.
“Hands off the communication device!” A feminine voice resounded from up ahead.
“Uh?” Davidson voiced in confusion as the group approached.
As they got closer, they could see that some unknown lady and guy had their hands wrapped around the necks of Glade and Aildris.
“I have the life of your teammates in my hand and yes they are unable to access their bloodline a abilities at the moment so don’t expect them to over power me,” The yellow skinned lady voiced out.
“Aren’t you two supposed to be from the other team?” Elevora voiced with a confused tone.
“They are long gone hahaha foolish mixedbloods,” The lady voiced out as they moved closer to the group.
“I and my subordinate took over their bodies a long time ago and deceived these two into bringing us here so we can take back what you stole from us,” The lady voiced out while increasing the grip on Aildris throat.
Aildris had a look of disappointment on his face as he heaved out a sigh. He felt like he had truly let the team down at this point.
“They can’t fight back and none of you can get to us in time to free both of them before they are killed… if you try any nonsense at least one of them will die,” The yellow skinned lady voiced out.
-“Come in Retrival Squad! Have you completed the mission,”
A loud voice was heard from the communication device.
“Disconnect now or they die,” She voiced out once more while holding Aildris neck and lifting him.
The other officer who was also supposed to be unconscious all this time was actually okay. He was holding onto Glade who had turned all weak as well since they were unable to activate their bloodline energies.
It was all a ploy and their minds had been taken over by unknown Mendologas.
It was obvious that the Mendologas who took over their minds were elders since they were capable of doing such.
-“Retrieval Squad! Come I….”
The call was disconnected before the sentence could be completed.
“Pass over what you stole right away,” The yellow skinned lady voiced out.
“Don’t do it,” Aildris yelled out but her hand tightened around his throat more causing him to start coughing uncontrollably.
“I have no sympathy for earthlings! If you foolishly wish for his death, then disobey,” She voiced out once more.
‘This is bad, this is very bad,’ E.E said internally as he thought of a way out of this.
They all had worried looks on their faces as they wondered how they would get out of this situation. They didn’t want all of their hardwork to go to waste but at the same time they couldn’t let Aildris and Glade die.
There was no guarantee that they wouldn’t be killed here also after they gave them what they wanted. It was really a problematic situation.

-Earth
“BREAKING NEWS! THE SPACE AGENCY HAS UNCOVERED A NEW DISCOVERY!”
“IT HAS BEEN REVEALED THAT A NEW PLANET HAS APPEARED… IN THE MILKY WAY!”
“IT IS TOTALLY CONFUSING AND UNBELIEVABLE HOW SUCH A THING JUST HAPPENED BUT CURRENTLY THE PLANET HAS BEEN REPORTED TO BE ON THE MOVE!”
“IT IS ESTIMATED TO BE ON A COLLISION PATH TO EARTH AND WILL ARRIVE WITHIN FOUR DAYS!”
“EVERYONE IS EXPECTED NOT TO PANIC AS THE WORLD GOVERNMENT WILL BE GIVING A STATEMENT ABOUT THIS SITUATION SOON ENOUGH!”
“IT IS ALSO EXPECTED THAT THE BARRIER SURROUNDIND THE EARTH WILL PROTECT THE EARTH FROM ANY FORM OF IMPACT FROM THE COLLISION,”
“HOWEVER THERE HAS BEEN A HUGE SCARE AS IT HAS BEEN REVEALED THAT THE PLANET IS THRICE THE SIZE OF THE EARTH WITH A NEW SUN THAT IS FOUR TIMES HOTTER AS WELL,”
“BREAKING NEWS! IT HAS BEEN REVEALED THAT THE PLANET IS EXPANDING FURTHER ON ITS COLLISION COURSE TO EARTH AS WELL AS ITS SUN,”
“IT JUST SPROUTED A NEW MOON!”
“THE MBO ARE SAID TO BE INVESTIGATING THE CURRENT SITUATION AND THE WORLD GOVERNMENT WILL BE ADDRESSING THE SITUATION SOON.”
In the last three days the news had been mostly passing across this catastrophic information that was causing a big disturbance across the earth.
The earth had just survived a worldwide cataclysmic event and now it looked like another one was about to happen.
A lot of people didn’t doubt the capacity of the barrier surrounding earth but at the same time the planet approaching was said to be three times larger. This was ringing warning bells in their heads.
Currently the MBO was getting lots of queries and disturbing calls from the world government and even the people themselves.
-Space
“Yes sir it just passed us by,”
-“Why have you not made contact yet,”
“We tried to… the problem is not the speed, the problem is the energy waves it spreads across the vicinity. It makes it impossible to get close,”
“Are you telling me you lots missed it again? What are you doing up there then?”
“Sir, I’ll send you a data of the energy readings,”
After a few moments of silence…
-“What? How is this even possible?”
“We need an Alpha ranked Mixedblood… no other mixedblood will be able to come close to this moving planet,”
-“Alright, I’ll get back to you,”
“We need to be quick on this sir, In one day time it will arrive at Neptune’s orbit and no doubt destroy the entire planet with how fast its moving and its size… that’s if the planet Sun doesn’t even end up burning Neptune to a crisp and you know what Planet is next after all the other planets have been razed through sir,”
“Understood Officer Xanatus… this will be settled in a bit,”
After this, the communication was cut and Gradier Xanatus was left standing in the spacecraft with a bothered expression.
‘It wasn’t till I arrived here before I realised it was a planet appearing out of nowhere with a recently formed Sun… we have been sending researchers over to inspect a Sun all this time,’ He thought as he moved forward.
‘There’s still a possibility the kid survived… he could even be on the planet… I hope he is as unkillable as I think,’ Gradier Xanatus arrived at the pilot’s area before issuing a command.
“We’re still going after the planet… but keep a considerable distance from it,” He voiced out.
“Yes sir,” The main pilot voiced out as the engine of the spacecraft started once more.
They went on to turn around and sped forward.
Zhooooonnnn~
Gustav had been gone for over three days but it wasn’t until Gradier Xanatus arrived at space before the planet was spotted.
Before they could approach, the planet began moving. No one understood the dynamics of this as it was moving just as fast as a spacecraft despite its size.
Even with that, the planet should be affected by moving at such a speed, yet it was still in a good condition according to the reports of the space agency inspecting all the way from earth.
The advantage a spacecraft had over the planet was being able to enter wormholes without issues due to size. The ones created by the MBO that would make them travel faster could not expand to the size of the planet so it couldn’t travel as fast as the spacecraft.
However some wormholes were still getting generated from its speed and it would be unaffected in the slightest even after going through those ones.
It took some time but the spacecraft Gradier Xanatus was within began to catch up to the planet.
