Lillian grumbled as she was awoken by the pink jewel shimmering brightly in front of her face. It was pulling on the girl’s neck as if it were trying to free itself from the blonde. Lillian rubbed her eyes as she sat up. The rooms were sparse at the moment, but thankfully the ship had enough of them that all of them could have a room. There was a bed and a bathroom. That was it for the moment, but Simon had said that once we get to a planet they could stock up on some things.
To the matter at hand though. Lillian pulled the pink heart, which was floating in front of her, off of her neck. She definitely wouldn’t make that mistake again. The gem jerked and pulled Lillian from her bed and caused her to land face first on the floor. She glared up at the gem. It had made it to the door and was tapping on the door like a cat wanting to get out of the room.
“What is with you now?” Lillian growled. She stood up and dusted herself off before walking over to the jewel. Its glow had increased and its attempts to get out the door were more frantic. Lillian reached down and picked the gem up by its silver chain. It pulled and pointed at the door. Lillian sighed as it looked to be calming. She opened the door, and that’s when it began to drag her through the halls of the ship. She screamed as it forced her through the doors to the bridge and then pointed strait into the air. Simon and Kamen looked at her with questioning eyes. The girl was in her skivvies after all.
“Um, Lill,” Simon walked over to the slowly rising girl and placed a hand on her shoulder. He had improved the size of the hologram and while on the ship he could make it solid. “I’m not one to pry, but is there a reason that your half naked on the bridge.”
Lillian blushed while looking herself over. She had definitely forgotten to clothe herself before the pink jewel shot her out of her room. She let go of the silver chain and covered herself quickly. The gem shot towards the glass that covered the dome and got caught in the process. Its glow was bright enough that one could easily mistake it for one of the many stars that lit up the sky. The glow vanished and a pink beam shot from the gem out into space before it fell back to the ground and rested calmly on the metal.
“Well,” Lillian coughed. She walked over to the gem and quickly picked it up and left the bridge. She needed to get back to her room before anyone else saw her pink bunny underwear.
She breathed a sigh of relief as she made it safely into her room. Once the doors closed behind her she lifted the gem up and stared into the pink crystal. She shook it but nothing she did started up the same reaction that it just had.
“Lillian,” Zaneel’s voice rang over the ship’s intercom as a picture of him appeared behind Lillian’s head. “Could you come to the bridge please?”
“And wear pants this time.” Simon screamed in the background. Lillian nodded and once the screen went away she put her clothes on and left the room, taking a mental note that she needed to get some new clothes when they stopped on another world.
“What is it?” Lillian walked onto the bridge and looked at the three. She then looked up to see a large planet before them.
“A planet.” Simon said while his arms were crossed in front of his chest.
“We decided to follow that pink beam of light and it led us here,” Kamen looked over his shoulder at the girl. “Though that this is way far ahead of us.”
“Well, that doesn’t look anything like my world.” Lillian placed her hands on her hips after walking to stand beside Simon. Lillian tilted her head as she inspected the planet. It had one large landmass that crossed over the world’s North Pole. The large sea that surrounded such a large continent looked a sky blue rather than the dark blue that the Earth girl was used to.
“We know that the beam at least passed here.” Zaneel said as he typed quickly on a holographic keyboard. “It might not be where the beam wanted us to go.”
“But they might have information on the way that we should go.” Kamen said while he rested his chin on his hands.
“If anything,” Lillian placed her hand to her chin and began to pace back to the door. “We can get some supplies there.”
“You heard the lady,” Simon spun so that his cape fluttered behind him. “Bring us in for a landing.”
“Right,” Zaneel and Kamen said in unison.
On the world of Rai-Mei, the Dark Queen’s forces had secured their mistress another throne. The queen however stopped before entering the palace herself. Her dark clothes in contrast to the golden fields around her. Her red hair bristled with electricity as she stuck out her hand. Soon, a powerful pink beam of energy struck her hand. That caused the queen to break into a fit of laughter.
“So are you trying to find me, my heart?” She laughed as one of her minions approached. She dropped her hand causing a bolt of lightning to crush into the creature and light the fields on fire. She then walked to her new throne.
Lillian trekked along a long white beach with Kamen and Zaneel not far behind her. The surroundings were a large tropical forest to the right and the sky colored sea to the left. Behind them was the Gurren Lagann, Simon had told them that he would be along shortly. He had apparently put some of the ship to work on making him an android body. He figured it would come in handy.
“I kinda envy anyone that lives here.” Kamen took a deep breath and looked around. Suddenly, a bright flash of light caused the group to block their eyes. A group of five were on them and quickly they were overcome and tied up. It happened so fast that the next thing Lillian knew was that they were tied to a tree and the group of five were watching them behind green masks that were reminiscent of the tribal masks that Lillian saw in the Heatherfield museum.
“Why have you come here?” The middle one spoke as he walked up to Lillian and grabbed her hair. He lifted her face up with his three fingered hand so that he was looking the girl in the eyes. His were a dark ash color and showed wisdom even through the mask.
“We’re travelers,” Lillian said in an aggravated and pained tone, “we are just trying to find our way home.”
“Why should we believe you? They came after that pink light shot across the sky.” Another of the masked beings screamed.
“Because that was us,” Lillian said quickly, “the crystal on my necklace sent that beam to lead us home, but we ended up on your world. We apologize, but we needed supplies for our journey and had to land.”
“She does not lie.” The one holder Lillian’s hair said. “Release them.”
The three were effectively cut loose by the masked warriors. With a nod all but two flew from the scene and disappeared into the trees. The two that remained removed their masks to reveal and elderly looking man, and a younger man. Both had green skin and shared the ashen colored eyes. Their hair was a deep auburn color and spiked every which way.
“I am Ranna-Am,” the elderly one introduced himself. “And this is my son, Ky-Ruh.”
“It’s a pleasure,” Lillian said and then went about introducing herself and the two boys that were with her.
“I see,” Ranna-Am scratched his beard as he and Ky-Ruh walked Lillian’s group through the forest. Lillian had finished filling in the two of them as to the details behind their reason for being on these people’s world. “Then I welcome you to Ranshee.”
The group walked into a village full of life and people. It looked like a Native American village that Lillian saw in a textbook. It wasn’t long before the three of them were mingling within the crowded town center. They didn’t have anything to trade, but the people were still friendly, and once told of the group’s plight decided to help out.
That night they shared stories around the fire with the villagers and amongst themselves. Lillian noticed though that Ky-Ruh was leaving the comfort of the fire and the village into the forest.
“Excuse me, gotta do girl things.” Lillian stood and began to head into the woods after him. He had spent the entire day trying to convince the people of the village that Lillian and her friends were evil, and now he was definitely up to something.
She followed him to a cave that had a red glow coming from it. Something about it told her not to continue, but she wanted answers. She clutched the pink jewel and slowly walked forward.
“Are the preparations complete, Ky-Ruh.” A voice boomed over the cave as Lillian found a place to hide inside. The voice was coming from a large hominid that looked to be made of fire. He stood at least twelve feet tall and had massive horns coming from the side of his head.
“Yes, Lord Lasher.” Ky-Ruh bowed at the being’s feet. The thing smiled at him then looked up to where Lillian was before returning to his lackey.
“Excellent,” Lasher laughed, “then we will attack tonight, and this village will belong to you. With that the Ori will be reborn.”
“Unfortunately, my lord, travelers from another world have arrived on the planet.” Ky-Ruh said in a rush. “I could not convince the villagers to make them leave.”
“I already knew that fool.” Lasher growled and turned towards the entrance. “After all that heart of theirs.” He sent a torrent of flame down the entrance way. A bright flash and a gale of wind scattered those flames while Lillian flicked closed one of her massive fans. “Is in our presence.”
