The scene opens up to show Drago and Bae opening the doors to the meeting room.

"So this is the meeting room?" Drago asks as he and Bae walk through the door and pass multiple statues of the council and the council's father and mother.

"Yeah! It is also the place that holds the portal between Earth and the Great Tower." Bae says

"The portal between Here and the earth?" Drago asks as he stops walking.

"Yeah. It's how Mumei and Fauna get to Earth to take care of it." Bae says as she also stops walking turns around and looks at Drago.

Drago and Bae start to walk again and he learns why Bae and Kronii don't go to the earth as much as Mumei and Fauna. Bae told him since Kronii is the Warden of Time she will only step in when it revolves around her fixing it. Also Since Bae is the personification of chaos she is very involved with the earth when it comes to destruction always knowing when it would happen and at the same time feeling the human's sadness and despair with every passing moment.

The scene changes to show Drago and Bae bumping into Irys as she immediately hugs Bae.

"Bae!" Irys says excitedly as she hugs her older sister.

"Hello, Irys." Bae says as she hugs her back.

Bae suddenly stops the hug as she appears next to Drago with Irys falling down.

"My lady, are you ok?" Drago asks as he holds his hand out for her to grab.

Irys looks up at Drago as she is hesitant to take his hand.

"Don't be afraid Irys he ain't gonna hurt you." Bae says to reassure Irys.

With reassurance from her older sister Iris takes Drago's hand as he helps her up.

Are you ok lady Irys?" Drago asks as Irys has not let go of his hand. She nods her head as she is seen hiding the massive blush on her face.

"Hahaha, well imma go join Kronii, Fauna, and Mumei. Irys, Drago come join us when you are ready!" Bae says as she walks away.

An awkward silence falls onto Drago as he soon realizes that he has never had to start a conversation with a girl. He looks down and sees that she is still in fact holding his hand and he starts to panic.

"What do I do?! What should I say?! Ahhhh come on Drago you got this you've had many conversations with girls. I talked to her and her older siblings so get a hold of yourself." Drago says to himself as he feels Irys tighten her grip on his hand.

Soon all the worrying that Drago was doing vanished and was replaced with happy thoughts. Irys sensing Dragos's worry let out some of her power calming him down as his mind became clear.

"Ahem, so Lady Irys shall we join the others?" Drago asks as Irys nods her head and they start walking.

They both walked for a while as Drago wanted to know how he had calmed down so fast. He looks over at Irys as he suddenly stops making her stop in the process since she is still holding his hand and has no intention of letting go.

"My lady I have a question for you?" Drago asks

"Hm?" Irys hums.

"When I was worrying I was suddenly calmed did you have something to do with that?" Drago asks as Irys's eyes sparkle.

"Yes, I did!" Irys says excitedly.

"May I ask how you did it?" Drago asks.

"I did it with my special ability. Since I am hope I have the power to make all the negative and hurtful thoughts go away." Irys says as she lets go of Drago's hand.

"That's amazing lady Irys." Drago says.

Irys smiles as they both start to walk again and walk up to a door with the council's father and mother on it they open the door and see the other council members all sitting down.

"Ah so kind of you to join us now the meeting can begin take your seat Irys." Kronii says as Irys nods her head and sits down next to Mumei.

Drago walks to Fauna and stands next to her as Kronii suddenly gets very serious.

"As we all know Irys is to descend onto the earth here soon so I would like to be prepared for when she goes down." Kronii says in a serious voice.

"And how do you want to prepare for it there is nothing we can do to help her other than be there for her." Bae says.

"Well that may be so but we all know what happened when she went the first time." Kronii says as the tension suddenly went up and Irys looks down.

Drago stands there confused as he didn't know that Irys had already gone to Earth he was under the impression that this was the first time that she would go to Earth. He made a mental note in his head to ask Irys what happened since he was sure he wasn't going to get an answer from her siblings.

"So what do you propose we do." Mumei asks.

"I propose we send Drago with her until she completes her descent to Earth." Kronii says as Bae suddenly stands up and slams her hands on the table.

"Why can't it be one of us?! I know that Drago would be able to protect her but we could protect her better!" Bae says as her red aura appears around her.

"I understand that you want to protect Irys we all do! But we were told by Father that we were not to interfere with her descent to Earth!" Kronii yells out knocking some sense into Bae as she sits down in defeat.

Suddenly Irys stands up as she uses her power to calm her two sisters down.

"Please stop fighting it is my choice and my choice is Drago will go with me to earth. Father made these rules for a reason let's not break them and bring shame to his great name." Irys says as Kronii and Bae feel the effect of Irys's power.

"Then this meeting is over." Kronii says

All the council members stand up as Kronii begins to speak again.

"We need to prepare the portal let's go." Kronii says as they all walk up to a door with The Earth symbol on it.

The door opens up and Drago's eyes widen as he sees a blue portal as the scene goes black.
