Practice before Landing
"TING..TING..TING.." The noise of the two swords was heard in the cuboid-shape training room. It was done by Storm and Blaze who competed to be the strongest sword user.
It was really surprising at first when he noticed that one of the king's sons was in the sword defense class. However, as Blaze explained that he needed the sword lesson for the emergency sake, Storm acknowledged it. That was how it started to be a mini competition between them.
They really could move in fast way as they tried to defeat each other. From what it was seen, it seemed that both Blaze and Storm were hard to defeat. Even, Xander who joined the body combat class predicted that the result might be tie.
"TRAAANGG!!" about ten minutes later, the loud noise which was caused by Storm's sword shouted. He pushed his sword against Blaze who felt in the lying position.
"So, it means that you are beating me." Blaze concluded with friendly smile.
"Maybe. I am not sure if I can beat the king's son who was obviously more powerful." Storm then stopped pushing his sword.
"DONE! Storm is the winner for the first session!" the sword master shouted as he approached Storm and Blaze.
"I already told you, Storm. You are the winner." Blaze recalled what he had said a few seconds before.
Storm was just silent. His silence was not because the surprising thing that proved his ability of being able to defeat Blaze. Its cause was about he who had realized that his power could exceed more than the expectation he ever imagined.
"Well, let's continue with another sword training chapter." The sword master rubbed his long white beard gently as he stared softly to Blaze and Storm.
Hereafter, Storm, Ryker, and Blaze were all ears with the explanation and demonstration done by the two models who previously were the students of the sword master.
On the other room, Xander joined body combat activity. In the room, there were a few nemozens who also followed what the instructor told them to do. That activity was done with the various songs mixed together with the upbeat tempo, and it made all of its participants enthusiastic.
Then, in the middle of the activity, most of nemozens were tired. They chose to stop for a while and drink from their bottle. However, it did not occur to Xander. The nemostellar who owned rubber power still practiced with the energetic movements and minimal amount of sweats.
"Who is he? he is too weird as a nemozen," said a nemozen girl with pink long shiny hair who wore dark blue tracksuit and grabbed a bottle of water.
"Didn't you know that today, there will be some nemostellars who join us for practicing here?" asked her friend who had a pixie hair style with blue and yellow highlight on some parts.
"Could the man be a nemostellar? he is just like us from the outer appearance." The girl who was shorter than her two friends commented as she stared at Xander from farther distance.
"It seems that he is. Look at how powerful he is," replied the girl with long straight brown hair who wore pink t-shirt matched with a medium-length grey trousers.
Those words were suddenly heard by Xander who came near them. Unfortunately, the conversation was heard by Xander. Then, he approached them and said, "Is it wrong to be powerful and tireless like me?"
The nemozen girl with long straight brown hair responded, "No. Of course not. I just wonder whether you are a nemostellar or just a nemozen."
"Should it be the nemostellar only who can be more powerful than the nemozens?" Xander replied the answer with another question. It made the girls more confused since they could not really justify the certain judgement towards the level power.
Hereafter, about two hours forward, the chosen ones took a break as the meals were prepared. This time, another King's son whose name was Alaryc appeared and greeted the chosen ones cheerfully. He then started a sort of conversational topics in order to get along with them. Since he acknowledged that he would work together with them, he would like to maintain a good friendship so that the cooperative team could produce the greatest result to save the world from danger.

The day after, the chozen ones along with the King's sons gathered in the underground laboratory. It was the time for them to be sent to the earth. In spite of sending them without any power checking, the king asked his servant to check every nemostellar stamina briefly.
"Just relax and take a deep breath," said the laboratory officer to Blaze as he put a mini chip on Blaze's left palm hand.
Then, he obeyed the order given. When the chip was shining, it described the power level and the stamina of Blaze in the medium-size monitor which was connected to the main operational computer.
"PIP..PIP.." The sound of the stamina checking machine could be heard clearly. It made the officer plug off the chip from Blaze and called the next nemostellar for the checking section.
Hereafter, it was the time for Alaryc to check the stamina. He who was known to be calmer than Blaze only had a short checking section, not until fifteen minutes. It caused by his low emotional level. No wonder if he got a title as "The Most Patient Nemostellar".
Finished the stamina checking with Alaryc, the turn continued to the next nemostellar. The process flowed swiftly because none of them was uncontrollable. Then, they were guided to enter the huge rocket by the pilot. Inside there, they sat on the chairs provided and exchanged the words in order to engage with each other as the partners.
"Can you imagine that we are floating the next day in here?" Zen asked to Silas with the wondering expression.
"Well, I can imagine it, but it may look funny sometimes, especially if we need to eat something or wash up," explained Silas with a little smile on his tiny face.
Then, Cassian joined the conversation by saying, "Let's see when we drop a cup of water or any liquid. Trust me, it will be so amusing."
Those words uttered by Cassian caused the laughter of the nemostellars. It would be really epic since the liquid dropped should not touch the ground due to the less gravitational force in the rocket.
In just about a few minutes, the rocket was launched. At the same time, Kian and Sola looked at the launching process. Inside her heart, Sola said, "I hope that all of you can really reduce the damage on Earth. I always send you the best prayer."
