BOOK 1 - Destiny (Shonen Anime Style)

Chapter 16: Hive Nest

Ravi, Leah and their respective ghosts were aboard Ravi's ship heading towards none other place than the Moon itself. As they all finally left the Earth's atmosphere and reached space, they couldn't help but gasp of amazement. After all, neither of them had ever left their home planet.

"WOAH!" Ravi yelled with excitement. "This is totally awesome! Space is awesome!"

"I gotta admit... It really is amazing" Leah added with a smile.

"You see? I bet you wish you had disobeyed the Vanguard's rules earlier"

"Maybe... but that doesn't mean I'm not angry at you anymore"

Just then, a very important question crossed Ravi's mind. "Anyway..."

...

...

...

"...How do we reach the Moon?"

They both stayed silent since neither of them had the slightest idea of which direction to even take. "You... You can't be serious?!" Leah yelled in a childish annoyed tone. "You are the one who planned on going to the Moon! You should know how to get there!"

"Of course I don't know! How do you expect me to know that!" Ravi replied in the same manner.

Then they both growled a bit upset at each other until their own ghosts finally offered an appropriate solution.

"I know how to get to the Moon" Cybel bluntly stated.

"Me too" Wire added.

Both Ravi and Leah stared at them with surprise and said "Really?"

"Yeah! We just need to introduce the coordinates we received into the ship's computer"

"That's right" Cybel claimed. "The ship's auto-pilot mode should take us there after doing that"

"Mmmh... Very well. In that case, let's do it!" the blue-haired boy added with a smile, only to do as the ghost told him some moments later.

Right after that, the ship turned around towards one specific direction, only to then start shaking with great force, startling both Ravi and Leah on the way.

"Wh-what's going on?" Leah asked, a bit scared.

"You might wanna take a seat" Cybel then stated.

"Eh? Why?"

"Just do it before it's too late!"

Both Ravi and Leah took a seat immediately and fastened their seatbelts. And exactly 1 second after they did that... the ship jumped into hyperspace, which basically means it travelled at a speed so high that it would reach the Moon faster than on just any normal trip.

When the ship finally stopped, both of them were completely out of words. "Th-th-that was..." Leah stuttered.

"Incredible!" Ravi yelled, finishing Leah's sentence. "I didn't even know my ship could do that! But, how is it possible?!"

"It's due to the hyperdrive module" Wire explained. "Each ship has a special device that lets them reach speeds as high as the light's"

Cybel joined the conversation. "That way, a trip that would take days or months can be done in seconds, minutes or hours at much"

Ravi immediately understood what they meant.... After all, the Moon itself was now right in front of them. "Amazing! So, that's the Moon?!" the bluenette asked with excitement.
