Love Far Beyond the Ashes

Exploring Space

Amelia pov: "We need to check outside to see where in the galaxy we are," I suddenly said.

"Eh, are you saying we need to go out there and explore space, dummy?" Gura asked

"No shit, Sherlock!" "I just said that..." I groaned

"No need, I explored space like five minutes ago. Can I just say her body is fantastic and spacious?" Ina asked, winking a bit.

"I'm going to slap you...." Gura said

"That was cute, Ina," Sana said.

"If I'm being honest, she's beautiful." Ina huffed

"We all know Sana is beautiful. You don't have to tell us twice." Gura and I said it together.

"By the way, aren't there other people here, Kronini?" Sana asked

"Oh yeah, Flare, Noel, Marine, and the other one," Kronii said.

"We should get them," Gura said.

"Nah, it's fine," I told her.

They don't know we are flying around in space, but they must have noticed the change in gravity, so it should be fine. We can move, so they should be able to as well.

We need to worry about us now.

"Watson, we can't breath; I'm in space!" Gura said, snapping me out of my thoughts.

That was true; we couldn't breathe in space without a space suit, so we had no way to go outside to check out where we were.

"Actually, since I'm here with you, we all should be able to breathe in space," Sana said.

"Wait, really?" I asked.

"Yeah, but you'll have to stay really close to me or be directly touching me," Sana said.

"Will any of your DNA work?" I asked

"Yeah, why?" Sana asked.

I walked over and plucked two strands of hair off of her and wrapped it around Gura and my finger.

"Ina, you should grab a hair strand as well," I said.

Ina looked at me and tilted her head to the side, saying, "I don't need it." She told me

I wondered why, but I wasn't going to question it, so we decided to open a window and go out that way.

"Let's go," I said calmly as Gura went out first, then I did Ina, followed by Sana.

"You coming, Kronini?" Sana asked

"Yeah, give me a second," Kronii said.

I looked around at my two friends, noticing Ina was floating without making contact with Sana.

"How can you breathe?" I asked

"Well, you see, I figured out that the ancients once had similar powers to the council, so I can breathe." Ina giggled.

"Lucky you," I said.

"Gwak!" Kronii hissed as she fell, thinking she was going to fall fast but realizing quickly that she was now being affected by gravity like the rest of us.

"Eww, this feels weird...." She commented

"Are you grossed out that you finally are succumbing to my power, Kronini?" Sana asked

"When you put it like that, it pisses me off...." Kronii commented

"Sana, do you recognize where we are?" I asked She looked around and shook her head.

"To be honest, Ame, this area of space is odd. I know where we are, but it's like the opposite," Sana said.

"Huh?" I was confused by Sana; she shook her head, seemingly coming to a conclusion. They stopped her, though.

"I hope Meimei is alright...." Sana said worryingly

"Don't worry, she's resilient," Gura said.

"I know, but I'm still worried since it seems almost the entire council is suffering from this phenomenon," Sana stated.

"So I'm confused. Did all of council get transported or not?" Kronii asked

"We all had to," Sana said.

"Then why are you and I together?" Kronii asked

"Good question, Kronini, it's because you're a loner and we were so close that we couldn't be in two places at once," Sana said.

"Okay, was the lonely part needed?" Kronii asked

"Yes," Sana said.

"Don't you two start fighting now." Gura sighed

"Sorry, space and time don't get along very well." Kronii said

"Kronii, give my girlfriend some space!" Ina said

"Ina, now isn't the time..." I said

"Wait, I take back what I said. " Sana said

"Huh, why?" I asked.

"Thank you, I have a wife, so I'm not a loner!" Kronii bragged

"No, I don't take that back." "I take back the part about there being no way we can be in multiple dimensions at once," Sana said.

"How come?" Gura questioned

"We can see constellations where they're supposed to be, but they are reversed, so somehow we are either in the reverse realm or the mirror realm," Sana said.

"But what does space have to do with this?" I aksed

"Space is one of the realms I would know since it is technically part of me; technically, the other realms are too, but this is out of my jurisdiction; usually, all of council seals the realms," Sana explained.

"What changed?" I asked

"Someone made council unbalanced. We all have to keep our power levels at a certain scale if it's under or over the seal breaks and the realms are accessible again," Sana explained.

"So who did it?" I asked

"That's my question," Sana sighed.

"Well, Sana, can you somehow get us back?" Kronii asked

"Hmmm, well, I could take my limiter off and carry you back home, but that'd take forever," Sana said.

"Just portal us!" Kronii said

"You don't know, and for some reason I can't," Sana explained.

"So we are stuck..." Kronii sighed

"Yup, we're stuck, Kronini," Sana said.

"Okay, well, at least we won't be attacked." Kronii said

"For now...." I said

"Ame, what did you do?" Gura asked

"Nothing in particular," I said.

"You did something, didn't you?" Ina sighed

"Well, I may or may not have activated something on the computer that alerted people to help us," I said.

"That could end well or badly, so we need to be ready..." Sana said.

"We have enough firepower, Watson, so don't worry if danger comes our way-we'll kick their ass!" Gura said

"Well, we have enough firepower, Kronini doesn't," Sana said.

"Ughhhhhn!" Kronii screamed

I laughed to myself and floated back inside. This should be good. We will be safe. I can be sure now.
