《Rise of the Empress of Stars》Nightmare
Advertisement
Bang bang bang," wake up Astrella, we have to leave quickly. The planetary defense has collapsed, they will reach here soon. We need to quickly reach the evacuation point." Shouted my mom from across the door causing me to jump off my bed in seconds.
I quickly went through the walkthrough list for evacuation in my head and sent the emergency first-aid kits, flashlights, spacesuits, nutrient solutions, star charts for navigation, light weapons such as knives, pistols, and a sword into my space earring. I hurry up and change into a light combat uniform as I can hear my mom urging me to hurry up from downstairs.
As I reach the garage, the light silver-colored light armored car with blue arcs of aura flashing through its outer shell stopped right in front of me, as I saw my mom in a combat uniform carrying an assault rifle capable of killing a high-level Earth Evolutionary in a couple of hits to fatal points. Jumping into the co-pilot seat banged the door shut as we set off to the preplanned evacuation point.
'At home whatever my mom says goes, though my dad is a Tier-9 Sky Evolutionary, while my mom is a combat medic and a Tier-7 Earth Evolutionary. Myself being Tier-5 Human Evolutionary which considered being not bad for my age of 7 years old. Those happy days of playing with my dad's mech or running around the house after ruining the kitchen might not happen again. I can see fires and smoke in the cities skylines. Aetherians of various races are quickly descending from the sky in various places. I just hope dad can arrive safely before we reach the evacuation point.'
'We are about 7-9 km away from the destination and I think we are being chased by a couple of Earth Evolutionaries as I can hear the screams along with explosions.'

"Mom, an Aetherian, is quickly coming toward us and is about 400 meters away" Astrella shouted as soon as she saw the white-haired person flying in the sky wearing a black combat suit.
'He seems to treat us like playing a game of cat and mouse, as he would let extend the distance between us but catches up after some time and won't catch us.'
"He seems to be wanting to let us lead to the evacuation point mom. We have to get rid of him or else everyone will die when we reach it" solemnly I said to my mom.
"You know that your mom is a combat medic right, I can still understand that much little girl. Put away the expression of a little adult it doesn't suit you," mum says with a smile, patting my head."You remember how I taught you to lock on to target and fire the automated defense cannon at the back right. Do it now while I lead us to the wrong path."
I quickly get into the back seat and start fiddling with the touchpad that popped out the side door and locks on to the Aetherian and boom goes the cannon.
'He seems to hit by several shells, as I can see that his outer armor was destroyed and he seems to be pissed off. I can see the aura raging around him visible to the naked eye.'
"Mum, it seems like I have sent him into a rage and he is launching aura attacks," Astrealla says with anxiety as she watches the attacks nearly land the vehicle several times.
"Little girl, promise mom that no matter what happens from now on you won't rush to the front and never remove this pendant from your neck. It can make you bypass the detection instruments so that you can hide while I am fighting with the bad guy. Don't cry and wait for mum to finish off the bad guy and we will go and find dad."Mum says with red eyes as if confessing the last word, while I just nod my head heavily resisting the urge to cry.

'I know that mom is going to fight a high-level Sky Evolutionary but the chances of mom winning the fight are nearly zero. The only I can help mom is to quickly hide before he can notice me. I can see mom is trying to anger him so that I can have a chance to hide but I can't stop my tears from running down while quickly squeezing into a recycling container around the corner.'
'Just as turn back to see how mum is doing, I ran into the scene of my mom crashing in the ground making a pit nearly a meter deep with dust and rocks flying into the sky. Covering my mouth with my palm to resist screaming and piercing my fingernails into my palms to stay calm, so as not to run out and be a burden.'
'The Aetherian slowly walked towards my mom and kicked her into the building next door, making the wall come crashing down. I close my eyes and pray so that my dad might hear me and come back quickly to same us. Mum, please don't die.'
'As the Aetherian was about to kick my mum again, a thick wall of ice shielded her and a dark shadow scoped in and rescued mom. I can see mom also tears in her eyes as she watches the man in combat uniform protecting her, as am I.'
'I can see dad quickly freezing him the moment he was caught off guard and trying to break him into pieces but the Aetherian escaped using a self-damaging method. I shiver as the atmosphere quickly falls below freezing point as they continue to fight and I was almost killed by the aftermath of some attacks. After nearly 13 minutes of fighting, the Aetherian fell heavily on the ground vomiting blood non-stop. As I see dad kicking him a couple of times, I thought the fight was gonna end. I got out of my hiding place and as I was about turn around i heard the shouts of mum and dad to quickly hide and them blocking the Aetherian under them in a layer of aura barriers.'
'While I still am trying to figure out what was going on, a shockwave knocked me off the ground and the last thing I remember is the picture of mum and dad being completely submerged in bright light before I passed out hearing a delayed BOOM!!!'
