Children of the Galaxy

The Attack/Arrival

I watched my children train. They were masters with all weapons, including fists and feet, except for one each. Percy couldn't shoot a bow to save his life, and Harley is absolutely horrendous at sword fighting. But, Harley showed an uncanny talent with whips, while Percy was absolutely fantastic with swords. However, they were unstoppable together. Even against me, Order, End, Void, all the Greek/Roman gods/goddesses, and all the Norse gods/goddesses together, they cannot be beat. Perhaps a few scratches, but that's about it. I know, I know, they're only three and I shouldn't be pushing them so hard, but I'm worried. Before they were born, a prophecy had been spoken. It was too late to stop the children's birth because Order was already pregnant, so we were extremely worried. I can still remember the prophecy. It's so fresh in my mind that it may as well have been spoken yesterday.

'Two children shall come forth,
Warriors containing true worth.

The children of creation,
Shall bring order to the lands.

The war shall end,
With a final blow.

From the children of the Galaxy,
To their foe.'

I walked back to my office, full of worries. I could tell that Order and I are fading from stress, and so could our children. I'm just glad that they haven't approached me yet. I heard a knock on my office's door.

"Come in," I said, thinking it to be Order. Perhaps I jinxed myself earlier, for the door opened to reveal my children.

Harley and I are worried about mommy and daddy. They are always so nervous, and it scares us. We know they love us, and they care about, and they don't want us to get hurt, but sometimes, it seems like the stress is going to make mommy and daddy fade. We get so frightened sometimes because they would flicker and disappear for a few seconds and then come back acting like nothing happened. I looked at Harley.

"Are we going to go and talk to daddy?" I asked. She nodded and we set off on our way. We knocked on the door as soon as we arrived.

"Come in!" Was the muffled reply. We opened the door and daddy's eyes widened at the sight of us. I saw Harley's eyes fill with tears and I could feel the tears threatening to spill out of my own eyes.

Harley took a step forward. "Daddy? Why do you seem so unhappy to see us daddy?" She asked, sniffling.

"What? Oh, children, you know I could never be unhappy to see you. No, sweetie, I was simply surprised."

"Oh... Okay!" Harley broke into a toothy grin along with me. So daddy does still love us. YAY!!!

"Um, daddy? We need to talk though." I said seriously.

"Yeah, like, a serious talk." Harley put in.

"Really children? What could this be about?" Chaos asked, but Harley and I could sense an undertone of nervousness.

"Daddy, we know you're fading along with mommy." Harley and I spoke at the same time, causing us to glare at each other.

Daddy hung his head in defeat. "I know kids. It's just, we worry so much about you children and your future. We have been getting stressed recently but that is all. I'm sure we'll be back to normal soon. Okay?"
