AZ4 and I are standing at the bow of the ship, the wind blowing in our hair. The sun is setting, a luscious orange and crimson red decorate the sky. We are currently on the pirates ship, the same one that teased me earlier expresses “well I see you’ve found your lover, I guess the alien doesn’t find you as pittifull afterall”. They all laugh, including AZ4. It is a very playful teasing that I have become accustomed to. Surely enough, we have for quite an alliance with the pirates. They understand our disdain for both cities, as well as the need to improve them.
Our ship lowers as we slowly approach the Underground City. The Captain cries out, “oie fellas, on my command and my command only will you release your devices”. We are set to fly by all major structural areas of the city, at which point missiles will be released. They will inevitably compromise the underground and cause it to crumble. The Captain then yells with force, “Vex, now!”. A missile is released, and before it hits the ground he continues, “Spike! Go”.
AZ4 and I look over the city, in flame and crumbling. Missiles are released one after the other until there is visible ash in the sky. For the very few who escaped the underground it must seem like it’s snowing. However, the pain in their lungs caused by dark thick smoke would quickly remind them otherwise. The city is now on fire, and from its ashes will rise a kingdom. Suddenly, an impact hits the side of the ship, AZ4 and I hit the deck. The flight is rocky, we can hear the captain barking orders in the background…
