The next day , Roni receives a text message from Shen .

Shen: ''Hey . Are you coming to join us at the Flying Dutchman?''

What a great idea ! Roni accepted the invitation , to at least try not to think too much about Jupiter and think a little about his friends instead . Halfway to the inn-restaurant , Roni quietly crossed the secluded city street , rumored to be a rather unfrequented district . Being alone can be risky , but for the young ratlet , it's the only shortcut leading directly to the Flying Dutchman . This decision was a bad one when he came across a large , suspicious individual blocking his path .

Individual #1 : Hey , where are you going , sweetie ?

Roni : Oh , I'm sorry . I've got to get by .

Roni tries to go around him , but the guy stops him .

Individual #1 : I'll let you go if you let yourself have some fun .

Roni : Uh...No , thanks !

The ratlet turns to change direction , but another tall , burly stranger blocks his way .

Individual #2 : Well , you look cute . Why don't you spend some quality time with my good friend ? But three is much better !

The narrow street , walls on either side with a rodent with unhealthy thoughts in front and another behind . Roni felt in danger .

Roni : Please...! Don't come any closer ! Stay where you are !

He rummaged in his pocket but immediately remembered .

Roni : ''Oh no! I left my Aquamarine in my room , I can't use my power to defend myself ! What should I do...?"

Individual #1 : Come on , let's have some fun together ! What do you say , darling ?

Individual #2 : But first , you've got to follow us ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha ! Ha!

His two stalkers grab him by the arm .

Roni : Aah ! What are you doing ?! Stop it !

They tape up his arms and ankles , and the big guy takes him on his shoulder .

Roni : No ! Let me go ! SOMEBODY HELP !

Individual #1 : Shut up !

The fat rodent gags his mouth with tape to keep him quiet . Suddenly , Roni saw his stalker's friend fall to the ground . The poor young mice didn't see the face of the man who knocked out the big rat , because it all happened so quickly .

Individual #2 : What the ?!

The big guy immediately turns around . Suddenly , he received a heavy blow to the back of the neck , released Roni and fell to the ground . His saviour caught him in his arms before the impact . Looking up, Roni recognized who had come to his rescue .

Roni : "Jupiter!''

Jupiter gently drops him to the ground .

Jupiter : Don't move , I'm going to untie you .

After untying him , Roni couldn't help but wrap him arms around him lover's neck to thank him ; he'd had the fright of his life .

Roni : Jupiter...Thank you...

Jupiter also wraps his arms around him to calm his fear .

Jupiter : It's all right...Call me by my real name...

His presence and his voice reassured his beloved .

Roni : ...Zephir...

The two lovers free themselves .

Zephir : Your friends are waiting for you , and I must go . We'll meet again soon .

Roni : Yes...

Apotre Jupiter , or at least his real name , Zephir , left planet Earth . For his part , Roni would love to have him around for a while longer . But his friends are waiting for him .
