"She has been reading this book from the ancient earth which is all about superstitions and beliefs. Some of our ancestors believed that a name could bring fortune or misery to an individual. That's why they gave children names like Hope, Blessing, Charity, Beauty and other things like that. I on the other hand named my daughter a demon. Maybe, she was possessed, who knows?" Mega continued with a very deep thoughtful look on her face.

Cecily frowned even harder and shook her head. "I think you are reading too much into this, she was sick and she is healed, simple. You should be grateful for it and spinning crazy theories in your mind. Remember not everyone here is religious, if you say such a thing, they will think you are mentally ill." All this talk about possession was nonsense. She took Justin his breakfast.

But Mega still couldn't help thinking to herself that she never once saw her daughter take any medicine for her mythical illness. How could she dismiss Carolyn's wild theory so simply in that case and Scarlet's teacher was the one who taught her about deities, maybe he really did see something weird about her daughter before he healed her.

"So, what will you name your daughter?" Cecily asked Mega. "You must have a short list of choices I am sure."You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

"Ila or Isabelle, both good names, I will go by the temple and ask priest Fion for an opinion." she replied.

"Justin and I will go with go with you, we should light some incense and be thankful for Esong's safe return." Cecily said too.

The women made plans for the day, even adding lunch plans and an evening tea party.

At the offices of the ministry of defense, Adler was engaged in a very joyful conversation with Beord in his office. They were laughing while they sipped milk tea and enjoyed a light breakfast. This was part of their usual routine, Beord always came over breakfast if they did not eat from home.

This breakfast was eaten in the command center of the offices, a large monitoring room which had many screens that showed footage of the outer space beyond the shields and all the boundaries.

"An official ship is in distress, brother, it cannot be ignored." Beord said slowly and he swiped his finger, restarting the call Adler ended. "This is Beord Su, head of communications on_"

"Hey Beord, put my sweetie back on please, this is Amara Leopold, RGB officer identification badge SSC7560, currently in pursuit of space pirates that have activated the emergency inter star planet tower transportation and are heading your way. We will all be landing on your planet in less than five minutes, the space pirates in four because they are ahead of me. I am on a solo mission so I am requesting for back up, be warned, the pirates are armed and they have killed twenty people so far today and injured many more. They cannot be allowed to escape, I repeat, they cannot be allowed to escape."

Adler immediately sent an alarm to the RGB immediately, while Beord got on his phone and alerted captain Vangar about the danger which was heading their way.

Those pirates had to be crazy, the inter star planet tower transportation was a long gravity tube that connected all the seven planets of the sun star allowing mecha warriors to make emergency landings in case a planet was in distress. The tower however was very unstable, still under trial and chances of successfully making it through were only at sixty percent. There was a big chance that those who used it would come out on the other end as dead bodies.

Even the space ships did not come out undamaged, they were banged up and in need of repair after the trip.

The officers of the RGB were dealing with citizens who had been arrested for malicious slandering online when an alert in the building and an order to suit up and carry their arms went out.

Shoot to kill drones were activated, instructions were given and the offices were deployed. Their orders, were to give out one warning and then shoot to kill.

Blue star citizens were walking around freely, at work, or relaxed in their houses when an alert went out on their bracelet terminals telling them that space pirates were almost here so they should stay indoors or find the nearest bunkers or safety shelters until further notice.

Suddenly, panic ensued with people running in different directions while screaming. Fear set in, urging them to find the nearest safest place.

"What now?" Mega asked as she, Justin and Cecily were ushered back inside the castle by their guards.

"Space pirates." Tion answered, he looked at another castle guard and said, "Tell everyone to grab their weapons and suit up,"
