The Toge remained, possessed by the Devourer and followed the progress of the fleeing Repressior on the radar.

He had his hand on the button to fire and shoot down the Repressior in case it changed course.

Alice was not aware of this, but knowing the vicious nature of the Electrons, she was putting herself in front of the Raven, the flagship of the Electrons and their entire fleet behind it.

The Midway's jungle was securely tied to the Repressor but also cut off its ability to use its powerful turrets which would have to be directed aft.

The two sides synchronized and a space jump was prepared near Enka who was challenging the Electron army and its rival the Devourer.

A black hole appeared and beams of golden light appeared.

Massive and as big as Enka, if not bigger.

These creatures influenced the gravity around them and Tiamat made the hyperspace jump without asking the Goddess.

One of the hydra heads looked on but was smiling.

They were doing their duty and keeping the little ones safe.

Then the serious business began.

The dragons arrived in Earth orbit and the Repressior separated, the ultimate guardian of a dying civilization.

The Ummite ship was also present.

All evacuated the ship to enter the jungle, which automatically operated its retrorockets to land in the swamps, for a new start.

All was automatic, with an equivalent technology but with some more, about n century of technology of advance...

They landed without any problem and everyone woke up, realizing that they were on earth.

Meanwhile, no one had any idea what was going on up there, near Enka.

Saros entered in communication with Tiamat.

"Your majesty Tiamat, you have hyperspace technology, I see... but we have no contact with the empire... Have you had contact?"

Tiamat thought about what this might imply.

To say she knew nothing was the truth, but she was under no obligation to inform the Ummites of Enka's plans, at least what she understood of them.

But she was torn, defeated and desperate. She knew in the end, let's say, her millennial instincts made her feel the imminent danger.

Anyway, it was too late. There was nothing more to do...

"Prince Saros... If you can still communicate with the empire, even if there are no answers, those who still have time would have a chance. "

There was a long moment of silence.

Then the prince, worried resumed the video conference.

"We saw an Electron ship connected to the Repressor. We do not understand... Did you take the side of these monsters?"

Tiamat: "It is not a ship but a relic of a destroyed world like this one... Our children were on board and there are other children and civilians. Being neutral, we took the decision to shelter these refugees. The Electron guns were pointed at us and it is a miracle that we were able to return.

You must inform your people to flee immediately and take refuge here."

Saros: "We don't understand. What is going on?"

Tiamat: "TIME!" there is no more!

Saros thought that the dragoness was delirious.

Tiamat: "Switch the view of the deep space to X-ray view".

The prince made some gestures to his crew and a big antenna pointed towards the empire and... nothing... nothing appeared on the screen.

He froze, glazed over... And there was a violent argument on the screen that they hadn't cut off.

The crew ran around, and technicians opened panels to check the measuring equipment.

For an hour, there was panic and then silence on the bridge of the Ummite ship.

Then the Prince asked, "Sorry about the show, but could you send us your images and the one of the earth in comparison?

The remaining Kobold crew carried out the maneuver and the Ummites bowed their heads in silence.

A mournful silence.

Tiamat resumed the communication.

"Prince. You must see something..."

The repressor was in communication with the Doom and what they were seeing was horrible.

Waspy was on the screen and crying.

"Help!... I hope we make it!!!"

The Doom was with its engines at full throttle and the Vespalians and Fairies were constantly casting ice spells to cool the engines pushed to full throttle.

Next to it, 2 Ummite ships were attached to the Doom, producing 3 of the thrust.

Fairies were also aboard the 2 ships to cool the machinery.

Behind them, a ship had exploded its engines to escape and the spherical wave the size of the universe caught it and its image was frozen... its flames also frozen.

It was like a movie on TV where the pause button had been pushed.

Time had stopped. And the bubble was collapsing towards the Earth.

For those who were caught in it, they spoke or lived but everything was in pause, no more thought, no more soul, everything was stopped. It was as if the river of time had dried up.

But they managed to speed up and escape the devouring wave.

A race against time, against death.

Waspy: "Volkor is on board with his family..."

Saros: "Goddess Tiamat, do you have any information on the Ummite fleet?"

Tiamat entered telepathy with Waspy then turned to the screen.

"They are alive, but they are currently fighting the Electrons. It's a massacre. Enka is currently fighting the Devourer. We don't know anything but knowing the forces in question, here we are safe. And I advise you to stay. Even if the Ummites win, they are doomed. Enka won't do anything, only those of his blood have value... just like the Devourer."

Saros: "And with your powers, Arnold's and the Lion's, could we tip the battle?"

Tiamat: "No...the current battle is lost to the electrons in any case...

Queen Raptor is here as a refugee. Hans will follow Enka but will not lift a paw on his father...even if he fears him, even if he is a monster or an evil representative, a father is still his father. And so should you."

Meanwhile, near Enka, the Ummite fleet dropped their robot saucers.

They jumped out of their carrier ship and with shields and celestial axes, they pushed aside the Electron torpedoes.

The Toge got a big surprise.

A plethora of electron shuttles raced toward the robots, but the robots launched mini-saucers with circular saw-like cutting edges. Speed and density did the rest.

They cut the black shuttles in half.

Even more, a panel opened in the middle of the shuttle and micro-missiles shot down the flying saucers.

The Electron Destroyers turned their massive turrets and fired explosive bursts into the Ummite saucers.

The robots had the upper hand but the ships...
