Chapter 33

Epilogue

Solar time unit = year
planetary time unit = day

Not that far from Queen Triada’s planet a portal opened, a moment three human like figures emerged. The male looked at the planet then headed toward it.

Queen Triada’s head turned toward the sky as did the Cliverstone’s. A small smile crossed her features, “it appears that they were able to find Sam.”

Triann’s head snapped skyward as she whispered with tears falling. “My Sam thank the universe that you are still alive.”

Not far away, Fino’s head also turned skyward as a large smile crept to his mouth. “Ah my son! You have done the Cliverstone race proud this day.”

A few moments later, the trio landed not far from the group. They then gently floated toward the others.

They stopped before the six Cliverstones that Sam had extracted and then they had been resurrected.

Sam then turned toward Fino, “I know that you are the last of the ruling council of our planet Owt Los. At the moment, I can only acknowledge this, not much else. I am afraid that the last battles I had, have taken far more out of me than I thought.”

Triann nodded, then had Sam lay on a table within the domed building. A moment later Sam’s eyes flew open wide. “This is the fastest that my energy has ever recovered, how?” Sam asked.

“It is a machine I had developed at the end of our planet. With the help of Mello’s mother Cyan, I refined it. We then took it to Ryday’s father Rycon, he was able to manufacture it quickly. It has also helped the six of us to regain over seventy five percent of the control, of our power.”

Sam nodded his head feeling his body rapidly repairing itself, as well as his thoughts starting to clear.

“I am afraid that with the threat over,” it was at that moment he heard Triot scream from outside. Looking out he saw that Thantas, had once again slammed Triot to the ground none too gently. “Well, most of the threat is over, we still have Triot to deal with. Was thinking of asking the elites if, they wished to dispense justice on him.” Sam said.

Triann sighed as at that moment Fino and Natita walked up. “As the only ruling body for our race, I think that is an excellent idea. The elites are the only “good” Tetricons we have ever seen. As you observed Sam, they were far different than the rest of their race, forced to serve the leaders.”

“I have never felt a, as you say “good” Tetricon, they were more than refreshing to feel. I also believe that they should dispense justice in the case of Triot. Though, I also think that the elites, should know of the atrocities he has perpetrated on our race.” Natita said.

Fino nodded as he looked at Sam’s questioning look. “Ah! I have added Natita, in an advisory capacity ‘til such time that we have more of the ruling eight back. So, son, no rush but, any chance you can start on finding more soon?”

Sam slightly chuckled, as did Mellos who had been quiet the whole time. “I’d say as soon as we rest, then I am going to have to rebuild the Cliverstone energy detector.” Mellos said.

“That shouldn’t be too difficult,” came the voice of Ryday’s father Rycon. “Just give me the specifications, the wave lengths and detection parameters. I should be able to recreate it in no time at all.”

Mellos could only stare at Rycon as if he were insane. “You do realize that it took me years to make and refine it.” Mellos said.

“Oh yes, though as you have said you were unbalanced, with unclear thinking. Now that you are healed, I am sure that you can recall the details easily.” Rycon said.

Mellos looked at first Rycon, then the others with a great look of doubt. A moment later Mello’s eyes flew open as all the details came to mind, plus she could see more than a dozen improvements it needed. She then turned to Sam, walked up to him, staring a moment. Mellos then proceeded to grab Sam and passionately kiss him. When she stopped the both of them were panting. “Now,” Mellos said with a smirk, “that was worth the wait and pain.”

Sam of course, could only stare at her with a shocked look on his face. His brain trying to process what had happened.

Thantas walked to her brother whispering in his ear, “close your mouth it looks undignified.” Just as quickly she skipped away a giggle coming from her and Mellos.

Sam closed his mouth looking at everyone there. All had a smile on their face though, The look on Drivas, Ryday and Mellos’s faces were different. He then looked closer as he recognized the look. It was the same that he’d seen on predators when they were hunting and hungry, oh crap! What have I done now?
