Our main dorsal pilot drove hard, straight to the glistening surface above. It was a retreat for all dorsals. He drove straight through all of the slicer sharks, leaving the deep sea black entities far behind. The light intensified as the moon was now moving off its eclipse of the sun.
Gary, Mila, Max and Pei all peered down intently as the main dorsal drove directly up towards them. He struck the ocean surface and soared straight up to the side of Hi-Sun. He slowed, level with the side deck, and leaned over the rail. He opened his mouth and a limp, but alive Lord of Water spilled out and landed as gently as possible onto the deck. All four ran across to cradle him.
Our main dorsal turned back to the ocean and again pierced into the surface. He drove down deep to take care of his dorsal team and smash aside any other slicer sharks that may be causing trouble. He was at his highest guard and alertness as he too was very surprised at these black evil entities of which he had never come across before in all of the oceans.
Max and Pei had blankets, towels and aids for our Lord of Water before Gary had even uttered a word. He lay on his side. He was ok, but just stared into his own thoughts while he cleared his breath. He then sat up and looked at both Mila and Gary. With his attention now on Gary, he asked the one question,
"What was it you saw in the skies back on that night. You saw something and it unsettled you. What happened back there?"
Gary sighed and lowered his head.
"I know the stars my young Lord. I live my life by them. They are my guide. That first night of our journey, there was a missing patch, as if covered by some type of blanket or blocked by some floating mass in the skies. It was only for a moment, I know my guiding stars and I saw what I saw. I looked away and back and then it was gone, but nevertheless, it was there, and I have never seen a block in the stars in all my days."
Our young Lord took in what Gary said and then re-assured him.
"Raise your head, Gary. You saw what you saw and I completely trust what you say. But you did not put that mass up there in the skies. The Crystal is locked in now. We have company and we are forced to deal with it. I have sent in for a cleaner, but this will not arrive for another half of the year. So our journey continues and I guess, my dear Mila, our loafing time together will just have to wait. But I tell you both, now we are alive and we are fighting for the survival of more than this planet. What you saw that night may be more evil that any of us are able to comprehend. It's purpose is only that of raping and marauding the resources of this planet. But we have life on our side. And with such strong purpose and reason, I know that we will protect and save the eternal future of this precious water planet.
So smile my dear friends. We thought that today our journey would be over. But it has only just begun, and as for this task I already know the way for what is ahead of us. I have no idea nor experience in how we are going to achieve the goal of this mission. But today we are all together and beaming with life. So let's feast and enjoy the skies of this wondrous eclipse, for tomorrow our journey to the outer slingshot of our winter orbit begins."
Our team sat together in celebration of life and the beginning of a journey into a mission of continuing life. Below the dorsal pilots were all intact and themselves appeared extremely vibrant from the action of such a day. Together they had formed a spiritual allegiance and as one, all began a journey of hope and freedom.
The continuing life of all rests upon the shoulders of our Lord of Water and his small but loyal and mighty team. Follow this Lord in a battle of epic proportions. Against all odds and against such evil technology, unimaginable to the lives of our dear friends.
