"Son, you have to survive here. Bring your mom and little sister into safety."
Chase resolutely said to Wallace. The speed of their car couldn't be compared to the ch fra or even the marauder gears, it's only a matter of ti before they were caught.
"W-what are you saying? How can I bring them to the city?" Wallace replied in question. He was confused by his father who was driving as fast as he could. They all felt that the ch fra was about to reach them but he couldn't tell how his father plans to send them in the city.
Elaine looked from the back of their car and saw a humanoid ch fra catching up. She doesn't have an idea where they co from but she knew that once they were caught by these unknown species, they would be at their rcy.
As she heard Chase say those words to his son, she imdiately understood what he ant. She couldn't just say nothing and imdiately joined the plan.
"You can't last that long. It would be better if we do it together to guarantee their safety. What do you think?" Elaine said with a trace of a smile on her face. She doesn't look worried as she resolutely accepted what was about to happen. In return, his father could only sigh and smile back to his wife.
Wallace couldn't understand until he rembered what happened when their Zyth spaceship was also cornered by the redith Empire's force. His father, Captain Brian Heather, his uncle Shin and all other crews in the ship were left as he escaped using the luxury spaceship.
"NO! We have to escape together!" Wallace instinctively say those words aloud. He just couldn't allow his parents to leave him like this again. He clenched his fist as he was clearly out of options as well. The Pathfinder isn't responding and he doesn't have effective ans to fight against the ch Fra. If it's only the marauder gears, he was confident that they will have enough ti to reach the nearest city.
Wallace looked at his little sister who has fallen asleep due to his mother's magic spell. How could he explain to his little sister if both their parents perished here? How could they even survive anyway? It was all his fault. Maybe if he didn't land his spaceship here, the redith Empire wouldn't be able to trace him up to this planet. Maybe if he continued searching for a known planet and didn't take his chances here, he wouldn't be in this situation now. Maybe the 'Wallace' here would have lived happily together with his parents and would create a peaceful family with his wife and children when he grows up. But all of these didn't happen because he descended here and made a ss.
He regretted his decision that day. He blad himself for this situation they're in and couldn't help but feel very emotional. He's just about to lose his parents again.
"There should be sothing else!"
Wallace raised his voice but he couldn't stop his parents, even he himself couldn't think of other options aside from whatever his parent's plan was.
Chase only shook his head telling that it's alright.
"It will be fine. Just be safe and take care of your sister, you have to promise ." Elaine said softly to his son.
He was still thinking of refusing it but upon seeing his mother's pleading and resolute face, he could only agree to her request.
"I promise." Wallace solemnly said.
Chase put the car in automatic mode as he moved himself to let Wallace sit in the driver's seat.
Wallace could no longer control the situation as both his parents moved at the back of the car to let Wallace take a seat in front to drive the car together with the sleeping Claire beside him.
The couple checked their daughter and made sure that she was fastened comfortably and gave one final look to Wallace before opening the door of the car and jumping out to face the ch Fra.
Wallace saw his parents holding hands to face the large ch Fra. Their body was so small that the humanoid machine could grasp the two in a single palm.
He then saw his parent's golden rings on their fingers lit up so brightly that affected even the whole town and its surroundings. So people who were running for their lives as they were being pursued by other ch Fras and marauder gears were also blinded by the bright light. But it didn't last long for the empire's forces as they have sufficient preparation for this kind of attack. Their machine's function kicked in and filtered the bright light coming from the couple and it didn't even take a second to accomplish all of this.
They saw the two natives who were the source of the light. The couple has closed their eyes and holding each other's hands. The Empire's forces didn't detect any danger and only saw this light as an attempt to buy so ti, but even if that was the case, the nearest ch Fra tried to be careful just to make sure.
The ch Fra did not approach the two and on his position, he aid and fired a bullet to the couple in an attempt to probe their response.
Unfortunately, the fired shot didn't provide them their desired outco. The couple didn't dodge or send an attack but just stood there as the bullet passed through them like they were a ghost. The ch Fra pilot seems to be surprised as he forgot to take further actions.
The couple opened their eyes and they slowly disintegrated as thousands of light particles ford in return. After this has been ford, these particles turned towards the ch Fra. The pilot may have felt so danger as it tried to dodge but the light was so fast. The particles phased through over the ch Fra.
Everything happened so fast as Wallace could only clench his fist in anger, despair, and sadness. He was not aware of what happened inside the fra but once the particles of light phased outside, the ch Fra seems to be frozen as it slowly dropped to the ground. The ch Fra's engine was still functioning but it looks like the pilot lost his control on the machine.
The light particles then moved towards the other marauder gears and ch Fra as it stopped them their movents for so unknown reason. The citizens and other remaining magicians was surprised upon seeing what has occurred. They didn't know where the light ca from but they felt that they were now safe as every enemy it passed through would immobilize their machines dropping them to the ground helplessly.
"Great! Destroy them all!"
"We're saved!"
"Is it the reinforcents from the Cove City?"
"Luckily, they made it here."
They celebrated as they had a glimpse of hope in surviving their predicant.
Unfortunately, it didn't last long enough. The light particles only defeated 50 marauder gears and 4 ch Fras. There were still tons of enemies. Not to ntion that there's still one battleship nearby that hadn't released all of their forces.
As Wallace's parents sacrificed themselves for them to escape, he made quite so distance away from the town. He saw that after the particles of lights disappeared, the enemies didn't get cautious at all and instead gone even crazier as the battleship released their 300 Abyssal Destroyers in anger.
Wallace knew that these destroyers mostly have explosives in their arsenal, unlike the marauder gears. After that, the hopeful people just a while ago were bombarded by bombs and other explosives killing all the people and destroying the whole town leaving nothing in the previous lively Red Star Town.
Wallace could no longer contain his anger as his eyes turned bloodshot. He can only think of vengeance. He will make them regret this. He will annihilate these empire's forces on the planet. As long as he survives today, he will--
His thoughts were interrupted as a ch Fra blocked their car's path. He stomped at the brake pedal as hard as he could to stop it from hitting the ch Fra.
He saw his little sister groan as she seems to be waking up due to the abrupt halt they made. He successfully avoided a collision but what will happen next is another problem.
Wallace didn't have ti to think of the reason how the ch Fra appeared here as he only saw the humanoid machine lifting its hand and aid his gun on their car as it fired a shot.
NOOOoo!!
He doesn't know what to do and could only hug his little sister as they were covered by a warm light.
"Wake up! Uncle is here to celebrate the new year with us!"
His little sister forcefully removed his brother's blanket as he tried to open his eyes due to the sudden disturbance. Their uncle's family arrived today to celebrate the new year with them and as they heard Wallace's achievents, they wanted to et him.
Wallace completely woke himself up and opened his teary eyes as he stared at his little sister.
