“How is she?” The panicked voice of Senator Pevaphio asked as she came dashing into the living room where Lorelie, Stacey, Rowena and Erkat were all watching Adam’s stream.
“She’s doing very well,” Erkath said with a reassuring smile as she pointed to the holographic screen showing Tephe and the Phoenix squad fighting the fleeing Hepolisks.
“That's my little hatchling?” Pevaphio asked in surprise as she stared at Tephe’s armour form before asking, “What happened to her?”
“Nothing happened to her, Adam just lent her one of his anti-gravity armours to protect her,” Stacey explained.
“An anti-gravity armour that fits a dragon?” Pevaphio asked, unsure if she had heard that right,
“Indeed, I was surprised to see it myself,” Rowena said with a chuckle before adding. “With that on, she doesn’t have to worry about the Hepolisks' acidic poison.
“That's good.” Pevaphio sighed in relief as she finally calmed down a bit and sat down.
“No offence, Pevaphio, but you don’t seem to be surprised about all this,” Erkath remarked.
“As her mother, I was informed along with the leaders of the dragon race about Tephe’s prophecy when she was born, so I am not entirely surprised.
“Honestly, I am both relieved and worried, relieved that the prophecy has finally come to pass, because now Tephe can truly go live her life instead of being cooped up back on Devatov Seven.
Because of the nature of her prophecy and how the Nonpareilus Oracle explained it to us, we knew that if anyone ever found out that Tephe was prophesied to travel in time, they would do anything to try and kidnap her for their own gain. This is the true reason why Tephe has been protected all these years.”
“And you're concerned because she might not be able to make it back?” Rowena asked in understanding.
“Yes.”
“As a mother, I can relate.”
“Can you tell us the whole prophecy?” Erkath asked.
Senator Pevaphio nodded before reciting.
”The dragon and the pureblood will fall through time.
The distant past they will go, but for what reason, they don’t know.
Love will form as one woman mourns.
The flame that was snuffed out will once more bring light.
Their actions that day will make everything right.”
There was silence in the room as the group considered the prophecy for a few minutes before Lorelie asked.
“What's a pureblood? I mean, that’s obviously relating to Adam, but why does the prophecy address him like that?”
“I am unsure. I had never heard of the term prior to hearing the prophecy, and even after we dragons researched it, we found no information on it,” Pevaphio replied.
“The second verse is fairly self-explanatory, so let's skip that and go to the third: who will fall in love and who will mourn?” Rowena asked.
“Could it mean love will form between Adam and Tephe?” Erkath asked.
“I doubt it, I mean Tephe likes Adam a lot, but I think she is too innocent to fall in love just yet,” Rowena replied.
“A woman will mourn? Could this also be Tephe? What could she mourn over? Maybe Adam’s death?” Erkath asked thoughtfully.
“He better fucking not die.” Stacey snapped.
“I have faith that they will both return to us,” Lorelie added with a look of determination.
“I meant no offence, I’m just throwing out ideas, I mean, the prophecy says nothing about them returning to the present.”
“The flame that was snuffed out will once more bring light. I believe Tephe is right in that they will help the Phoenix race avoid extinction.” Rowena remarked.
“The Nonpareilus Oracle also believes that's what this line means,” Pevaphio informed them.
“Then the final line about making everything right must relate to preventing the Phoenix races' extinction,” Lorelie commented.
“So the main questions that remain unanswered are, What is a pureblood, who will form love form between and what women will mourn and why,” Erkath said thoughtfully.
“Oh, the battles over,” Stacey remarked as the holographic screen showed Tephe and the Phoenix squad flying back towards Adam and Princess Revi.

Fenix Nest, Universal Year 972
“I’m back,” Tephe said as she came flying towards the two of them, accompanied by the Phoenix squad.
“Welcome back,” Adam said as Tephe landed in front of him, along with several members of the Phoenix squad.
“Did you see how I killed all those Hepolisk scum?” Tephe asked proudly.
“I sure did, you did great, your breath attack was especially cool,” Adam replied.
“Hehe,” Tephe replied as her long dragon tail started to swish left and right at his response.
“By the way, this is Revi, she says you can join up with her to hunt the Hepolisk,” Adam said as he had his mech point at Revi.
“Really?” Tephe asked Rephe in excitement.
“Yeah, we would be happy to have a dragon as strong as you join us,” Revi said with a smile.
“Hey, hear that? She said, I'm strong.”
“Well, she’s right.”
“Hehe.”
[Superhearofangirl (Earth): She’s still so fucking innocent.]
[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): It’s a good thing the streamers a good guy.]
[Justiceistruth (Earth): A good guy who kills people.]
[Beczontop (Imperial Down): He had a reason for killing all of them.]
[Justiceistruth (Earth): Your opinion doesn’t count since you're hungry for his cock.]
“I see what you mean,” Revi said as she smiled at Adam.
“Huh?” Tephe replied as she tilted her head to the side in confusion.
“Don’t worry about it,” Adam replied before saying.
“Right, I’m going to go deal with the fleet, you help and protect Revi and her squad, while they deal with the Hepolisk’s”
“Leave it to me,” Tephe said proudly.
Adam smiled at the proud dragon from inside his cockpit before he pressed the pedal gently and had the mech hover off the ground and away from Tephe and the squad of Phoenixes. Once he was far enough away from them, he pressed the foot pedal down even further, causing the mech to shoot towards the sky.
“Look at it go.” One of the squad members said as they watched the mech shoot skywards.
“I was wondering, but how does that thing fly? I don’t see any obvious thrusters on it.”
“I was also curious about that.”
“That's not our concern, we’re moving out, our destination is the imperial capital, Pyro,” Revi said before she gave Adam’s mech one last look before flying off in the direction of Fenix Nest’s capital city.
The other Phoenies took to the air and followed their squad leader while Tephe watched Adam’s mech for a couple of seconds longer before she also took to the air and followed Revi.
Spector Unit 6 shot towards space using its anti-gravity drive and soon broke through the atmosphere of Fenix Nest to see the two fleets clashing not far from the planet.
[Emojisonly (Earth): 😱]
[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): Holy fuck, look at all those ships.]
[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): I noticed something as the streamers' ship was plummeting to the planet earlier, however, I couldn't get a good look like now.]
[SciFifanboy (Earth): This is so Sci-Fi.]
[Animefangirl (Earth): Those mechs are so Anime.]
[SciFifanboy (Earth): Would you fucking stop copying me? 😡]
[Animefangirl (Earth): Nope. Baka baka. 😜]
[Gunlovergirl (Earth): Look at all that firepower. 🥵]
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Someone’s excited.]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): It’s similar to the history documentaries.]
[Handsome3horns (Vinox 2): Were you not alive during this time @DeverinianLordMalacoss?]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): I was, however, like the rest of the known universe, I only found out about the Siege of Fenix Nest after it was over.]
[Whostolemyduck (Earth): Why did you not hear about it before? Surely the Phoenix race sent out a call for help?]
[LadyErkath (Oceana 7): They did, unfortunately, the Hepolisk fleet jammed all outgoing communications as well as the Phoenix races' access to the universal subspace network.]
[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): That’s possible?]
[Beinglittleisnotadisadvantage (Strathorp 7): It’s not easy, but it’s doable. You see that large ship with all the dishes on it? That’s a communication jamming ship. It’s specifically designed to block communications and disrupt access to the universal subspace network.]
[LadyErkath (Oceana 7): I was the Hades Galaxy’s senator at the time, and the Universal Senate, along with the rest of the known universe, only learnt of the Siege of Fenix Nest after it was over.]
[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): How did no one notice that the Phoenix race was not communicating on the universal subspace network?]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Because the entire siege lasted no longer than three days.]
[Gunlovergirl (Earth): They conquered an entire planet in only three days?]
[Emojisonly (Earth): 😱]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Indeed, the Hepolisk’s sheer numbers were simply too much for the remaining Phoenixes to handle. As soon as they left dropped out of FTL above the planet they launched drop pods towards the planet's surface before the Phoenix fleet intercepted them.]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): After that, it took approximately 1 day for the Hepolisk fleet to destroy the Phoenix fleet. After getting free access to the planet, the Helpolisks sent down their main landing party and overwhelmed the Phoenixes, killing them all within two more days.]
[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): That’s fucked up.]
