Chapter 6:

Legend Of Lost Paradise (I)

Lost Paradise


 Zeta Nurender Wion, twenty and firstborn Princess of the Galactic Federacy, was of average height and weight with cocoa-brown skin, her wavy silver locks were groomed into a bun with braids that encircled them-froze for a moment as she stepped onto the observation deck of her chamber.

The vast expanse of space was before her, scattered with pinpricks of white dots and red cosmic gas painted the darkness of space with a warmth she had never experienced before. Her scarlet eyes were fixated on the brightest star at the centre, as he outstretched her arms in an attempt to grasp it.

‘Elysia’ she murmured, closing her eyes and remembering her world. Elysia was the capital of Galactic Federacy and also Zeta’s home. Her rosy lips curved into a smile as she remembered the ‘binary-stars’ that acted as the sun for the Elysian planetary system.

On the other corner of the bridge stood Aurora, clad in the Federacy’s White Robe-wearing the navy blue Beret as she gazed at the Almighty Her Majesty Princess of the Federacy ‘Zeta’ still unaware of why she had been called here.

The room was larger than any room Aurora had ever been into, and it even smelled different. The fragrance of fresh lavender scourged the ‘Royal Chamber’, on the walls hung paintings she had never seen before.

At the centre of the room was the observation deck, it was built upon a high rise platform and the ceiling was tiled with a panoramic screen that gave a complete live feedback view of the scenery outside the ship.

And from the looks of it, the ship was still cruising through the Conduit sector.

"Your Highness," Ana said, as she straightened from a low bow.

A moment after hearing Ana's voice Zeta shifted her line of sight and returned to her command chair sitting in an upright position. With her slender arms resting on the sides she gazed at her faithful subordinate.

"Stand up Ana," She said as she cocked her head towards the slender figure next to Ana.

"This is she?" The crown princess of Galactic Federacy asked, and Aurora's head whipped around as Ana nodded.

Aurora, who was now the centre of all attention, gazed at the Princess, her lips curved into a smile as her fingers coiled around her bracelet. Both of them stared at her as she remained upright.

If they think I am going to bow in front of your Royal Majesty’s Ass. They are so wrong.

“I am Aurora Dastune,” She smirked. “Glad to make your acquaintance”

When Vulcan said that Princess wanted to have an audience with her, Aurora’s first thought was ‘Shit I am finally being sent to the gallows’ Only after reading the message herself she ruled out her execution as a possibility. But if they were expecting for her to bow down, they were so wrong.

Bow to her indeed! Even if these were the last moments of my life, I would never spend them grovelling in submission.

After a too-long moment, Zeta spoke, “Very well White Cat” Pushing herself out of the chair, she moved downwards towards where Aurora was standing. Aurora was never nervous about this entire impromptu meeting but something about the Princess filled her with dread.

Her blue eyes narrowed on Zeta, as she now stood in front of her with her slender arms stretched towards Aurora gesturing a handshake.

“It's a pleasure to finally meet you,” Zeta stopped, her lips curved into a smile. “Seven

Aurora’s eyes widened, her arms instinctively moved towards her waist to retrieve the blaster that wasn’t there.

How does she know?

Before she could have deciphered what was going on, Zeta placed her rosy lips right beside Aurora’s ear, as she quietly murmured.

“I know more about you than you know about yourself sweetie, so you better behave.”

“Yes,” Aurora replied, as she glassily stared at Her Majesty.

“Yes?”

“Yes, your highness.”

As she gracefully walked back to her throne, Aurora couldn’t help but admire her beauty. She was supposed to be a Princess, dressed in Royal outfits, hogging on royal delights from her chamber somewhere in the galaxy as she prepared herself to marry another Royal Hogger.

But Zeta was everything she imagined a Princess to not be. Taking a deep breath she steeled her nerves. She was not going to be intimidated by her, no way. The White Cat most skilled Mercenary in the Galaxy crumbling in front of a Royal Ass no way in hell.

Gathering her pride, she tossed her twin tail behind a shoulder and lifted her head. Her eyes met those of the princess.

Zeta Nurender Wion smiled at her. It was a polished smile and reeked of court-trained charm. But what caught Aurora’s attention was not the treacherously charming face of the princess but the holographic image of a planet projected behind her.

The spherical-no on close observation she could tell it was an ellipsoid, that too not a simple one but an irregular ellipsoid.

Her blue eyes shone with curiosity, the landforms on the planet were distributed in a manner she had never see in any world before, on closer inspection, she could deduce that the planet’s water bodies were more than the landmass, and the atmosphere or whatever the hologram projected seemed to be strong enough to sustain life.

“What is it?” She asked, her eyes laced with curiosity as she looked at the inevitable end of the planet.

“Earth,” Zeta smirked. “The cradle of civilization and the origin of all humanity.”

“I don’t have time for this Princess.” Aurora rolled her eyes,

Does she think I am an Idiot?!

“So let me ask you once again, what is that planet?”

“It is Earth.” She replied earnestly.

“I am sorry to break your childhood dream, but there’s no planet with such a name,” Aurora sighed. “It’s a legend and like all others. It’s not real. Earth does not exist.”

Zeta laughed, her hand covered her lips as she tried to hide it.

“What if I told you the legend is true,e sweetie.”

“What do you mean?’

“Follow me,” Zeta smirked as she gestured the young mercenary to follow her. “And Ana can you make sure no one disturbs us while we talk inside”

Ana bowed, before leaving the room.

“Let’s go White Cat. A new world awaits you on the other side”
