- The flight deck of the ship is triangular with multiple levels of chairs and screens, the large muscular man covered in tatoos (Rick) entering the room with its large screens immitating windows can't help but feel the deck ifeels too empty with just Singularity, Shemandra, and Golem Gal moving between the controls.
- Rick speaks to Singularity, "Yeah, so I know to you guys this is going to sound like a dumb question but we...less cosmic super heroes were wandering why its taking such a long time to go back to Earth when it was so easy before."
- "Temporal instability," says Singularity, "the timelines and time spheres around Midgardia are badly damaged, there were attempts to repair it by removing the unnatural elements that were introduced into the timeline; however any little thing now is setting off time quakes. Galaxy Girl punching through to arrive there certently didin't help matters."

- A clearing of an old abandoned amusement park, on the ground Galaxy Girl and Slayer-X watch as the hundred foot long silver wedge shaped ship appears from a ripple in the air and lands, via hovering above the ground and a ramp desends from a doorway. Down the ramp three very different figures walk, the petite gothic-lolitta style Singularity, the glamazon in white and gold Shemandra, her massive bejeweled sword strapped to her back, and the giant grey skinned muscular woman Golem Gal.
- Singularity looks between the two, "I thought you said there were two superheroes you recrouted?"
- "She had to go home." says Galaxy Girl.
- "It is imperative," says Singularity, "that we gather as many superheroes from this Earth as possible."
- "Excuse me," says Slayer-X, "ExZelia was fighting beside us, however her parents came and retrieved her. While I do not have all the data, I can ascertain that ExZelia is a non-native to this planet and her parents extra dimensional entities given the strange mix of energy signatures I detected. However I also need to inquire as to your statement just now, gather as many superheroes from this Earth as possible. I was under the impression your team was coming here to aid in removing the alien invaders. Namely the forces of Empress Blue Stinger, and the Queen of Puppets."
- "The situation has changed," says Singularity looking at Galaxy Girl, "We intercepted a communication between the Ki'an'ta and the Amoana trade federation, the Celestial Empresses have abandoned this world and are selling the control rights to the Amoana trade federation. They will clean up the time distortions. I am transporting as many super heroes as I can to another timeline as I can. I couldn't save my Earth from the Ju-el, If the Galactic Guardians can't even stop them, then we don't have a chance against the Ki'an'ta and Amoana. Besides given the time distortions this Earth may not even match the Earth several of our team came from anyway."
- "That's strange," says Galaxy Girl, "the invaders of this Earth are all Amanets...or Amalin, I forget which is which, The Queen of Puppets, Blue Stinger, and Rhudra all were said to be ExZelia's half sisters."
- "Rhudra," says Singularity, "Then...I wander if I all the Celestial Empresses were in on the sale."

- -On Aesperia-
- Hollia walks by the study room where Zelia is reading up on elemental magic, it is still a few more days till Mirai is scheduled to check in for a tutoring session with Hollia. Further down the hall Hollia can hear Rhulan mumbling to herself, in the empty room Rhulan has multiple sigil windows open, some are showing Midgardia, others are showing the unknown individual "Empress Blue Stinger."
- "Everything alright?" asks Hollia stepping into the room.
- Rhulan *sighs*, "Well on the one hand learning about yet another child I had during my amnesiatic but not really period is frustrating. I should have known I knocked up that Stinger Queen, why else would they not attack Aesperia after I was petrified; the bargain stuck."
- She stands up and looks at the Midgardia windows, "One more wayward child aside who managed to avoid the summoning when I started defragmenting myself, this planet is a hassle. Hollia, I don't believe in coincidences, you know how often I returned to this planet, how unstable its timeline became because of their Quantum Wars, Eldritch Abominations, and proto-humans playing with Ju-el technology...and I just learned there was a base in Antarctica this whole time with prisoners being kept there that was a joint outpost between the Ju-el and this other ascended class species called Ki'an'ta."
- "Never heard of them," remarks Hollia.
- "Eh, mostly keept to themselves," says Rhulan, "apparently have trade agreements with this other group of Amana calling themselves Amoena who have chosen to have physical forms that look like our ethereal forms if they were made of flesh and fuzzy."
- Rhulan brings up an image of an Amoena, a large blue furry lamia with long ethereal hair and glowing solid eyes and a series of antenna like spines cresting the head.
- "cute," says Hollia, "I feel like my higher self was never a fan of having a long tail though. I think."
- "Well," says Rhulan, "apparently my sister June has finalized a sale, because we as the Architects of Magic tried to stabalize that planet we defacto claimed ownership of it, so that Earth is going to be off limits to our families without going through proper higher channels. That said, as I was saying, I don't believe in coincidences. Blue Stinger, Flower, Rhudra, and Zelia all have gone there. Now apparently Rhudra and Blue Stinger were following Zelia supposedly, although she says she knew Blue Stinger was going there so went there ahead of her....Flower had already been haunting that Earth...and we've gone there looking for the Inferverse cubes. I can't help but feel something is off about this. That said Xiang is still on that planet as are a few more eldritch; and I sensed the power that undid the Overlord Tournament."
- Rhulan waves her arm closing all the windows in the air, "I am overthinking this. I am clearly the x-factor, it was by my hand so much of this occured or could occur, a remnant of my own lures for your souls. This Midgardia being handed off is for the best, best left in the past. However I am still curious why the timeline is still so unstable. We seperated the majority of the magic to Mededaria, the kaiju ended up on different Earths, the majority of the Hells were disconnected, and most of the eldritch removed. Under normal circumstances what is left shouldn't be enough to destabalize it this much, or even maintain this level of destabalization. There is something else in or on that planet. Something June may know about and these Amoena may even be interested in.
- Hollia hugs Rhulan from behind and kisses her cheek. Rhulan smiles, "I need to step back, give my head some time to clear up."
- They leave the room together, Zelia peeking out the study room door to see her parents walking away before she opens a small handheld sigil and whispers, "Galaxy Girl, Slayer-X, It's ExZelia, do you hear me?"
