(How you guys liken the art?)

We opened up with the V-19 flying in a Lightfold tunnel and it was quiet at first, until everyone in the ship heard arguing outside.

Gary: Not talking to you.

Clarence: I'm not talking to you.

Gary: You're talking right now to me.

Clarence (Annoyed): Stop talking!

Gary (Infuriated): I'm trying to do that!

From one of the doors, Ash's door opens showing a tired face, probably from all the arguing.

Ash (Annoyed): What are you arguing about now?

Gary and Clarence: We don't know!

Ash: Well, on Serepentis, the only way to settle an argument was through a good game of thimble. I'll get my gear.

Ash went back into her room to find her gear; Clarence held a face that spelled disaster while Gary was just in confusion

Gary: I don't even know what that is.

Clarence: Perfect, loser leaves the ship immediately.

Clarence went into Ash's room leaving Gary alone to just be confused.

Gary: I just said, I don't know how to play.

Behind him, Little Cato leaned on the edge of his door wearing a bright purple, blue, and light blue cybernetic eyepatch.

Little Cato: We've got this, I'm ventrexsias thimble elite junior champion.

Ash came back with smashers wearing the same blue eyepatch.

Ash: Smashers all around.

Clarence: You vs us. Winner takes all.

They moved this game to the cleaned-up mess hall, on Gary's team, he had Little Cato, Nightfall, and H.U.E and Clarence had himself, Fox, and Ash.

Little Cato: Queued for play.

Clarence: Bingo!

Clarence tossed a yellow triangle-like ball into the air and used his smasher to hit it at Little Cato, he smacked it back with his own, Clarence saw how high it was jumped onto Fox's arm, and hit it back at the opposing team, but it was faster than they could count and both Little Cato and Nightfall missed the ball falling on the ground and the ball hit H.U.E instead.

Little Cato: Queue Four!

Clarence: Thimble for Clarence

Clarence threw a hatchet at H.U.E's core which oddly made the robot laugh not out of pain.

H.U.E: Hahaha, Oh you hound.

Gary (Horrified): What in the three rings of hell is going on?

Ash: Gary, it's like you don't even know how to play thimble.

Gary: That's what I keep trying to tell you.

Clarence (Fast Talk): Two to four players equip themselves with smashers. Players use said smashers to gather thimbles, thimbles are gathered hitting the thimbles, hitting thimbles across the playing field to the other players smashing window.

Fox (Aggressive): Thimbles may also be gathered by other means!

H.U.E: For each limb you remove from the opposing players. You receive four thimbles and ownership of detached limbs.

Clarence: However, if the other player fails to clear their limb in a timely matter, they lose four points in addition to losing a limb.

Ash: The game is won by reaching 54 thimbles.

Gary: Heh, queued for play.

Tossing the small ball in the air, the game continued, each side hitting it to the other, seeing an opening. Nightfall takes out her small laser gun shooting off two of Clarence's fingers, but they actually manage to regenerate.

Little Cato (Amused): Oh, that is so gross.

Clarence: Ugh, four thimbles for you.

Aiger came in rubbing his eyes seeing everyone in their Thimble gear raising an eyebrow.

Aiger: What's with the Hi-Fi outfits?

Gary: Oh, we're playing a game of thimble, just found out about it, pretty brutal.

Little Cato: Something you enjoy a lot of.

Aiger: Oh, sounds fun.

Aiger went to the coffee machine to pour something himself to charge up, Ash looked at him for a moment before her face grew a small smile.

Ash: Wanna play with us? Y-You could fill in for Tribore.

Tribore: Fill in for me, why would he do that? I mean, it would fill in some players. But I don't wanna be with Clarence-.

Aiger: Nah, I'm fine watching. Haven't played that game in ages.

Aiger's coffee finally finished, and he turned around seeing Ash close to him having to look up at him. He took one step back, being caught off guard.

Ash: Pleeeease.

Aiger: I-I uh-

Clarence: Oh Ash, don't bother, if he can't play because he's a coward then don't let him play.

Aiger went from blushing to scowling at Clarence who had a snarky smile, and at everyone else almost like their stares went deep into his soul, heck even Gary gave him a supporting thumbs up. He sighed putting his coffee mug on the counter

Aiger: Tribore, pass me your crap, I'm about to whoop some ass.

Tribore: Go on, Supernova.

Ash let out a little squeal while Aiger took his smasher and eyepiece going over to Gary's team, and the game continued, Aiger smacking the ball at Clarence who was about to swing his hand to knock it out but using his other hand, he stretched his finger out shooting a small hole through his thumb cutting it off giving them another point.

Gary: Yes! Good shot Achilles!

Aiger: (Looks at Clarence) What's wrong green bean, you were talking all that good shit a second ago?

Clarence: I'm going to skin that boy alive, Ash start us up.

Ash (Hyper): Queded for play!

Ash rolled her sleeve back getting into a starting position when H.U.E noticed pausing himself to scan it.

H.U.E: Hmm, facticulating, (brings up database) Ah. Ash that tattoo. Is that a dimensional key?

Ash (Shows off the tattoo): Everyone has one of Serapentius.

Gary: So, there's a key on Serapentius?

Ash: I've never seen it.

Gary: That key could help me save Quinn. AVA, put up the star map.

AVA; Ugh, now?

Gary (Stern): Yes now!

Ava (Brings up the floating planet): Serpentius, a planet best known for worshiping a fire serpent not from this realm.

H.U.E (Yanks out hatchet) Star Travel online ranked it, worst place for a honeymoon but the best place for venom-soaked viper waffles.

Gary: That's great H.U.E. Pack your duffle sack, we're going.

Aiger: Hell yeah! Been so long since we actually got out of this damn thing.

Even though the others didn't seem to mind going to the planet, Ash was pissed, taking off her eye gear and throwing it to the ground, her powers activating enveloped in a dark purple aura.

Ash (Echo): If any of you go down there, I will rain down destruction the likes of which you've never seen before!

In her rage, she fired small purple energy balls scattering around, Fox ducking one of them, H.U.E getting hit shocking Gary but no real reaction from H.U.E. One almost hit Little Cato, but Aiger flicked the ball away from him as Little Cato gave him a thankful nod. Mooncake floated around some of the bolts going near the counter to hide in a small bowl. She calmed down, losing her aura, feeling everyone staring at her as she rubbed her arm.

Ash (Stern): So, none of you are going, kay?

Gary: Huh, seems like she really doesn't want to go.

H.U.E (On Fire): Is it hot in here or is it just H.U.E (Falls) Oh.

After her little freakout, Ash sat at the kitchen table, Gary like in her personal bubble making a sincere face.

Gary: Ash, look at me. I'd never make you go to a planet you're not safe on because-.

Ash: You're trying to kill me?

Gary (Shocked): What? No, I want the best for you that's why-.

Ash (Angrier): You'll stop at nothing to destroy me?! (Pouts and turns around)

Gary: No, I just ugh okay (Walks past Little Cato and Aiger) Little Cato, Aiger, switchy switch.

Aiger folded his arms sighing, walking with Little Cato who sat next to her as Aiger leaned on the table.

Little Cato: Ash, you don't have to answer but what happened to you on Serepentius.

Aiger (Gentle): Maybe, if you tell us. We'll understand and try to find one of the other keys. Besides, it is better knowing your history than not right?

Ash looked at the two then everyone else, Mooncake rubbed his face on Ash's making her slightly smile before she let out a sight. The colors on the screen turn gray like old school tv shows, a slightly younger Ash pulled her hood down being surrounded by her people, sister and parents.

Ash (Off Screen): It was supposed to be the greatest day of my life.

Gary (Off Screen): That's usually how the worst day of your life starts out.

Past Ash and Her sister smiled at each other holding each other's hands, Ash felt a pair of hands holding her shoulder looking up at her dad smiling.

Past Ash: Thank you so much for getting us here.

Ash's Dad: Don't thank us, thank Werthrent.

Harp: Mom, Dad.

Ash's Mom: Yes sweetheart?

Harp: What were we chosen for?

Ash's Dad: Glorious things, your blood will erase the darkness.

Ash (Scared): Wait what?

Two clothed priests with spears walked to the two girls and grabbed Harp first dragging her away.

Ash: Harp!

Ash (off Screen): I fought to get to her, but they held me back.

Despite Ash's pleas, Harp was brought up to the stairs much to her horror, Ash tries to get to her but was pulled back by her own parents as she flailed her body to try and get free. Harp looked back at Ash only to feel the ground shaking and from the hole in front of Harp. A giant black serpent with red eyes loomed over Harp as she was paralyzed by fear and in a flash. She was eaten by the Serpent as Ash watched horrified.

Ash (Off Screen): They made me watch. Then something awakened inside me.

Ash's fingers spread out and curled up, her eyes changing black, her pupils turning purple as she broke through her parents grip, all the cult members staring at her.

Gary: Your thingy, thing.

Ash (Off screen): Yes dude my thingy thing!

Stretching her arms, a powerful blast came from her body powerful enough to send some of the cult to the ground. Ash floats back on the ground panting as her eyes turn back to normal.

Gary (Offscreen): Wow, so you killed your parents?

Ash (Offscreen): Yeah and does that make me a bad person?! Oh look at her she's the parent killer watch out.

Gary (Offscreen): Oh sorry my bad. I didn't mean parent killer in a judgmental way

The serpent retreated back into its den while some of the other cut members chased Ash who ran as far as she could trying not to be caught.

Ash (Offscreen): So, when you said parent killer. You meant great job Ash. How is that not judgmental

Aiger (Offscreen): Gary shut up and let her finish.

The flashback Ash continued running from the crowd up a small bridge in the distance, Fox fixing up an open panel of the ship and a watching Clarence was near.

Ash (Offscreen): That's when I found Fox and Clarence. My new family.

Fox noticed Ash in the distance glancing up powering down his torch.

Clarence: What the hell Fox!?

Fox tilted his head to where he was looking, Clarence turned to see raising his eyebrows in curiosity, Ash kept on running glancing back and seeing some of the cult catching up to her, her eyes turned black again turning around and launching another black wave at the cult killing them as the flashback ended sending us back to the ship.

Little Cato: What happened to your sister?

Ash: I never saw her again.

Realizing how much and long she vented, she glanced at the others getting a mix of sympathy and some form of understanding. She got off the counter kind of nervous.

Ash (Nervous): Oh, uh I'm still talking. Whoops okay uh anyway. Goodnight (No one moves and she stays on the seat) I'm still here. Okay for real bye!

Ash jumped out of her seat running from the kitchen down the halls making a sloppy turn to her room, as the others stood where they were. Before eventually going to their dorms to sleep.

{ASH'S DREAM}

Out in space, racing at the ship was the serpent god that was in Ash's flashback, at first she was asleep not aware at first, until the serpent god looked through one of the lobby windows and crashed through it shaking the ship as it entered now this woke up Ash who scarily got out of bed exiting her room. She tried to wake everyone up, but no one listened. Turning behind her, Ash saw the Serpent slowly approach her, her eyes turned black shooting small dark bolts at the being. Outside of her dream, Nightfall sleeps on the top bunk when she is alerted by Ash's yells and sleep talking, she shook her awake making her body go up trying to catch her breath, seeing the damage she caused to the room.

Ash (Disbelief): Did I-?

Nightfall: Yes.

Ash (Thinking until making a determined face): I'm going to Serapentius.

Nightfall: Are you sure you're ready, if you go, your mind has to be clear-.

Ash: It is!

Nightfall: Those walls say otherwise.

Ash: It's my call, I don't need you mothering me.

Nightfall: Hey, just looking out, okay?

Ash: I'm sick of being afraid, and I have to find my sister.

Nightfall: How do you know she's still alive?

Ash: I have to try.

H.U.E: Right after you TRY fixing this Ashole.

Hours passed and once everyone woke up, the ship flew through space eventually arriving to Serapentius, they landed on a safe pad and everyone besides Nightfall and Fox went on ahead as the two stayed back.

Fox: Good luck Ashy, we'll hold down the fort.

Nightfall: Hey, do you need help on this?

Ash (Irritated): I told you, I'm fine.

Ash walked off with the others, Nightfall rolled her eyes turning back to the ship along with Fox, Ash caught up with the others, and Aiger noticed her sour about to say something when Clarence beat him.

Clarence: Follow me.

Little Cato: How do you know where the key is?

Aiger: I swear if you use your weird crotch key I'm going to boom you.

Clarence was going to take out his compass, but everyone's groaning stopped him as they continued to walk. They made it to the plaza-like area, seeing the trinkets and food shops around. Everyone was disgusted by the food, Aiger even gagged seeing a Snake Burger pulsing like a damn heart. Though KVN and Ash seemed unphased.

Ash: I recommend the Snake Sandwiches, Snake Burgers, and Snake Shakes but not the Snake Flakes! Those will make you projectile vomit your kidneys and you'll bleed for days out of your eyes (Lightly) It's amazing.

KVN: Really? It sounds amazing. (Shoves food into its "Mouth" As it falls to the ground). OH look forever balls, I've always wanted one they bounce forever.

Gary: Too bad.

Gary pushed KVN into Clarence who bumped into one of the other cult dudes, making him turn to the group.

Man (Nerdy Voice): Hey friend, you think you can just show up and sacrifice yourself to Werthrent? There's a line.

Past him were dozens of people waiting in line for the eventual sacrifice with their glorious one.

Gary: How long of a line are we talking?

Mooncake: Chocklity.

Gary: 8 hours?

Mooncake: Chocklity Pok.

Gary: 8 YEARS?

Aiger: Oh, hell nah, you telling me these dumbasses wait eight years just to die? (Nerdy guy: Yep) We don't have that much time.

Little Cato: Ugh how do we get these fanatics to leave.

Aiger put his hand up glowing gold as Gary noticed shaking his head as he groaned disappointedly putting his hand down.

Ash: If only Sentella appeared, the serpent goddess of good fortune, people would wait their entire lives just to see her once.

Gary: Well, you're in luck because they're about to get their wish right KVN!?

KVN (Holding popcorn turning back around with a toy serpent on his head): D-do what?

With some time and crappy clothes. They put KVN in a fake Sentella costume.

KVN: Great news my insane worshipers, it's me. KVN (Gary: Sentella) S-Sentellea (Gary: No SENTELLA!) Salmonella. Goddess of fortune not here to trick you, whoever catches me will achieve fame, fortune and uh (Sees them all gathering around him) You can't catch me!

KVN flew away from the big mob of fanatics who ran after him, completely obsessed with him.

Man (Nerdy voice): Sentella, (Call out) she's real!

Gary: Haha good job KVN! (Notices he's flying to a cliff) Wait, nononono. KVN stop!

KVN (Over the edge): What!?

It was too late and those who followed KVN fell into the deep pit being stabbed by the spikey rocks at the bottom.

Aiger (Puts his hand on Garys shoulder): You know, this shouldn't be a shock, this is freaking KVN.

Gary: (Sighs annoyed) Yeah.

Finally after what felt like hours of people falling, the last few crashed into the pile, all with KVN watching until his attention was brought to a bouncing purple forever ball.

KVN: OMG, a forever ball (Starts bouncing it on the dead bodies). I am the goddess of good fortune.

Gary: A lot of people just died, we can't forget that, so everybody let's keep a uh, short moment of silence.

The group was quiet for only like 2 seconds before Gary sucked his teeth.

Gary: Alright let's go.

The group turned around to the stairs walking there with Mooncake and KVN floating next to them, KVN playing with his new forever ball. Now it was a lot of stairs to go up at first but once they got to the final stair, they just had to walk straight passing by torches and some skeletons too.

Gary (Looking up ahead): Yo, I'm no scientist. But that looks weird. That must be where we need to go.

Aiger (Sarcastic): Yeah, like the path ending at a statue of a snake god wasn't a dead giveaway.

Ash looked up at the shrine, her mind flashing back to the day she lost her sister, calling her name only to be silenced out by the snakes screeching snapping back into the present.

Ash: If the dimensional key is anywhere, it's inside Werthrent

Gary: It's inside the snake guy? Oh.

Aiger: So, we get to go inside a godly being to get the key. (Little Cato: Yep.) Ugh, vore shit.

Ash balled her fist, purple and black energy leaking out as her eyes changed, her body developed in her signature aura as she floated up into the air shooting a small projectile at the statue.

Ash (Distorted): Werthrent! Show yourself. But you won't because all you are is fear and hatred and weakness!

Aiger (Whispers to Little Cato): Not gonna lie, weak insults.

The sound of hissing alerted the group and a ring of fire surrounded them making them gasp. Glowing eyes appeared from the mouth of the statue and out from it came the giant serpent Werthrent.

Little Cato: Oh my gosh that's a huge snake.

Tribore: I've seen bigger.

Aiger (Glanced at Tribore): What the heck have you seen?

Trbore just gave Aiger a flashy smile as he flinched, glancing away.

Ash (Distorted): You ate my sister, give her back or I will flay you!

Werthrent (Chilling): But she serves me so well.

Ash (Distorted): Give her back!

Werthrent: But why? When I can have you both?

Werthrent licked his lips slowly approaching Ash when a golden energy blast hit his eye as he screeched in annoyance. Werthrent glanced past Ash to Aiger, smoke coming from his fist, as he looked a bit smug.

Aiger: Oh I'm sorry, my hands have a mind of their own. You understand right?

Gary (Whispers): Yeah maybe don't piss off the giant serpent thing.

Aiger: Aw but where's the fun in that? I love a little trolling.

The serpent glared at Aiger slowly smirking.

Werthrent: Slayer (Aiger: How does this dork know my nickname) It's been a while since I've had someone of your kind in my belly. Can't wait to know what a special one like you will taste like.

Aiger: Okay, he just got turned on by my shit, great.

Gary: H-Hey listen, hey pal can you hear me?! (Sees the giant snake turn his head to him) Oh geez. If you eat them then you'll have to eat the rest of us. We're a combo pack.

Clarence (Confused): A combo pack?

Little Cato (Quick): Combo pack!

Gary: Yeah, like the fries, we're the fries.

Aiger (Fist on hip): And I'm the drink.

Mooncake: Chocklity Pook!

Gary: You wanna be the dipping sauce?

Triborg: You know, someone said I would make a good dipping sauce. Who said that? None of your businesses.

Little Cato: I'm the onion ring!

KVN: Oh, I wanna be the napkin. Hooray!

Gary: Okay well now it's the combo pack from hell but NOW Werthrent are you in or are you out?

Werthrent (Intimidating): In!

Aiger's fists sparked golden energy as he punched three blasts at Werthrent but that boy ate them and licked his lips.

Aiger: Boy ain't no way. He vored my fucking blasts.

Werthrent licked his lips as he opened his big mouth swallowing the group, gulping them down into his stomach, inside of it. A portal opened and the group fell out landing on the ground. While everyone slowly got up, Ash's eyes dilated looking around.

Ash: Harp? Harp!

All she was greeted with was zombie like versions of her people, walking, groaning, decaying all around.

Rando Zombie: Kill. Me!

Clarence: W-who are these putrid wastes of echotoplasm.

Ash: The surrendered. (Walks to a fat decaying surrendered) We were told that being offered to Werthrent was beautiful, that we would go to the embrace and live eternity in joy.

KVN slapped a surrendered as Aiger felt one hold his arm as he backhanded them in the nose.

Aiger: Yeeeah, I'm gonna call bullshit on that whole thing.

Triborg: Can we all agree they stretched the truth hun?

Triborg gently pulled Ash to her feet, as everyone walked forward despite having some surrendered following them.

Clarence: Yes, not sure this was worth the wait.

Seeing how many people were in the way, Aiger got in front, his hands glowing gold as he made big hands to slap away the surrendered, with them out of the way they had a clear view of the key trapped inside the giant serpent's heart.

Gary and Clarence: The key.

Clarence ran first as Gary patted Aiger's shoulder first before running at the key, pushing Clarence out of the way but right when they got close, a staff hit the two of them knocking them down the stairs laying on the floor.

Wizard: Who dares Sanitum? Keeper of the heart of Werthrent?

Ash: Ash Graven, child of Werthrent

Wizard: Rejoice child, for you have been surrendered. Who are the unworthy who engulf you?

Clarence (Pushing back Gary): Oh, piss off you-.

Gary (Pushing his body on Clarence): Yo, Gary Goodspeed.

Wizard: Alright pipe down, what brings you to the innards of darkness?

Gary: Shut up and give us the heart.

Wizard: Over my fragile, weak bones. To touch the heart, you must answer me three riddles.

Gary: Riddles, Pfft haha, this is the best you could come up with?

Aiger: I mean yeah, I could just kill you with my bare hands and take the heart myself, but let's entertain him a bit eh?

While they were busy with the wizard, Ash looked around the surrenders bodies not finding a hearing their pleas for help, when Ash heard a voice in the distance.

Ash: Harp?

Ash walked away to the voice, Aiger noticed her walking away when he heard the Wizard clearing his throat getting his attention back.

Wizard: Riddle 1! What is blue on the belly, covered in jelly, happens to be quite the smelly jelly, but often quite smitten with shelly.

While Gary puts on his thinking face, Aiger scoffed as KVN bounced his forever ball.

KVN: Got it, that's a cloud.

Wizard: How the hell did-. Correct.

Gary (Looks at the two): A cloud?

Wizard: Rest assured this next one will send you on a rollercoaster of the mind.

Aiger: I doubt it but whatever.

Wizard: Riddle 2, Harry had two friends, one of which had three friends, who then had seven friends, who then had two friends, but also had two friends who also had 10 different friends who happened to have twelve friends, what did Harry have for dinner?

KVN: I got it, it would be the conversation.

Wizard: Son of a! Correct.

Ash (Pushing back a surrendered): how are you so good at this?

KVN: Because I'm a deep space, insanity avoidance companion. I've been programmed to know all games, riddles and puzzles to keep. (Wraps his arms around Aiger and Gary.) Gary and Aiger entertained, right buddies?

Aiger: By entertained, you mean annoying me to death and locking the fucking bathroom!

Gary: Nothing he has ever done has ever had any juncture in time, entertained me.

Wizard: This final riddle will induce brainspasims and-.

Aiger: Oh, get on with it, so we can leave and I can grab something to eat!

Wizard: Pfft, rude (Clears throat) A caramel candy drops in a pool of grundle handwicks which wick the hand from which the wicking has handed. Did the caramel grow in hand wicking? Or, did it get stolen by the three blind grundle snackers? Answer correctly or begin dying 1,000 deaths!

Gary: KVN, I know you're gonna let us down, in the time that we need you the most.

KVN (Angry): No one programmed me for that total crap that dude just made up.

Gary: Called it.

Aiger: To be fair, he did make that shit up-.

KVN suddenly slammed his forever ball to the ground, bouncing up and hitting the wizard in the face, knocking him to the ground as the ball began to crush his bones splattering green blood all around, while the team looked shocked, Gary glanced back up at the key.

Gary: The key yo!

Aiger and Little Cato ran for the key, as Aiger's hands glowed gold digging into the heart separating it enough for Little Cato to dig in and grab the key, as Werthrent screeched coughing, flames sputtering out of his mouth as he gags. Inside, the body began to crumble, ruble and fire all around them.

Gary (Scared): How do we get out of here?

Tribore:That feels like a question for Richard. (Calls his chubby friend Richard and some animal alien). Richard?

Richard: This is Richard.

Tribore: Who is that next to you?

Richard: Dan.

Tribore: What's Dan doing there?

Richard: Nothing.

Tribore: Well, when he stops doing "nothing," call me back, okay? (In place of the heart, a portal opens up as Tribore hangs up the call) Richard's calling me back when he's finished with Dan.

Gary: Oh, wow. Okay. There's a minute I'm never getting back.

Aiger: (whispers): Oh my god. (Outloud) Get to the dang portal dudes!

Gary: Oh right!

The group ran to the portal, Clarence looked back noticing Ash kneeling in front of a surrendered.

Clarence: Ash!

Little Cato and Aiger glanced back, Little Cato looked at the key as Aiger ran at her.

Little Cato: Gary, take this!

He handed Gary the key, as he followed Aiger to Ash as Gary called out to them, Ash approached what looked like her sister, reaching her hand out.

Ash: Harp, is that you?

Before her hand could even touch her, a decaying Harp turned around slapping her hand away as she curled up holding her legs.

Harp: She's gone, She's gone, She's gone.

Ash gasped her hands close to her mouth.

Ash: Oh no.

Aiger: Ash! Come on, we gotta go!

Little Cato: Ash, I hate to be that guy, but it's time for us to leave.

Outside, Werthrent continued coughing flames, one of them, he spits out Gary, KVN, Tribore, Mooncake and Clarence as they land on the ground getting up.

Gary: Where's Spidercat, Achilles, Ash!

KVN: They are not here.

Gary: Come on guys, come on!

Back inside, Ash gently holds Harp's face as the two make eye contact.

Ash: Harp, it's me.

Harp (Shakes her hands off): NO!

Ash: Don't you remember? Come back to me.

Harp: She's gone, gone, gone, gone she's gone.

Harp began to tweak out holding her head making raspy sounds, as Aiger walked beside Ash.

Aiger: Ash, that thing isn't your sister anymore, just a husk of the person you once knew.

The place began to rumble, debris falling down as the fires spread faster. Ash looked at Harp as she suddenly screeches for her to leave as the flames consumed her, Ash gasps as Aiger grabbed both Ash and Little Cato glowing gold flying into the portal just in time, as energy around the planet expanded right as Werthrent exploded making a pillar of light, Aiger floats to the ground letting go of Ash and Little Cato panting a bit. Blood rains down on everyone, organs spilling down and some objects and weapons too. While this happens Clarence snatches the key.

Clarence: This should pay off your rent.

Gary: Hey, give that back!

The two wrestled over the key, as Aiger groaned, going between them and snatching the key from the two.

Aiger: Not now you two geez.

Before the other two could ask, Ash began to cry holding her eyes as Little Cato comforted her, bouncing in KVn's little claws was his forever ball. As he cheered, Gary pushed him away. Walking back on the ship leaving the planet, everyone takes this time to rest, in their shared room, Ash lays on her bed while Nightfall was typing on her computer. Suddenly, the door opened, Little Cato and Aiger outside in the hall.

Little Cato/Aiger: Hey/Yo.

Nightfall stopped typing as she watched them walk to Ash, Little Cato sitting on the bed as Aiger just decided to stand near her both having a calm approach.

Little Cato: Ash, you can't save someone who doesn't know their lost.

Ash: I thought the whole reason I have these powers was to get her back.

Nightfall: Maybe you got them for something amazing down the line.

Ash: You mean something that hasn't even happened yet.

Aiger: Yeah, you'd be surprised the universe has these kinds of plans for all of us. Maybe your powers weren't meant to save your sister, maybe they were given to you for another reason, maybe during this whole key finding adventure, you'll end up finding out what that is.

Nightfall: Yeah, don't worry kid, you did great, you're going to be awesome.

Nightfall then gets out of her seat and leaves the room leaving the three alone.

Ash: That freaks me out even more.

Little Cato: How come?

Ash: Because it means on the other side of this there might actually be something good.

Aiger (Sarcastic): Oh no, not something good. I-Impossible.

Little Cato (Teasing): Oh, that is terrifying.

Ash giggled at them joking around, at least happy she got to smile again.

Little Cato: B-but no I'm there too, think we got a word for that.

The two tried to think when Aiger playfully rolled his eyes.

Aiger: Think you guys are looking for the word hope.

Little Cato: Oh, thanks best buddy (Aiger: Back to that name now?) Pathetic that neither of us knew that, maybe I'll try it on for size.

Ash: W-well how was it?

Little Cato: Eh, little tight in the crotch but good. Wanna give it a go?

Ash: Maybe after you two leave.

Little Cato: Oh, yeah right okay.

Aiger: Dang, said that with the quickness but eh I get it.

The two begin to walk away from Ash about to leave the room.

Ash: Wait, t-thanks you two.

Aiger grinned a bit at her response, as Little Cato let out a squeal, as they left the room, Aiger's mind made him stop as he glanced back out the door.

Aiger: H-hey, I-I'm gonna leave after this but if your ever interested or bored or whatever, if you want we could train together, you know to help you better control those uh powers.

Ash: R-really?

Aiger: I mean if you want to ya know, don't have to just a dumb question heh.

Ash: Sure! I-I mean I'll think about it, how's that sound?

Aiger: G-good, no problem at all yeah that sounds uh good.

H.U.E: Aiger, Fox is trying to eat your leftovers.

Aiger: Oh hell no not again.

Aiger leaned off the door running to kitchen as Ash chuckled a bit watching him leave, as she laid in her bed taking a nap the muffled sounds of Aiger and Fox arguing helping her drift to sleep as the episode.

(So, So sorry this book took so long to update, I honestly had a huge writers block with this whole book, and sometimes I just didn't want to update it but I'm good now, I have some things planned, like I'm thinking about doing a Flashback episodes for Season 1, that way it can help explain stuff about Aiger and my plans for him, as well as his bonds with everyone at that time, along with the whole lore of his people and race. So I'll try to keep this book updated, when I can, gonna work on Superman rn.)
