Spinning and spinning, everything went distorted. Basch and Lili's thoughts were distorted. Everything was walking towards madness, including space and time. Colors were spinning. Everything was spinning.
Burn the witch stop that hail Zeus it's a cloak, non you bloody frog you must be exorcised there's a sinner you're going to hell shut up PASTA draw a circle here's the earth draw a circle here's the earth draw a circle here's the earth I'm Italy Jesus loves you! yikes a ghost to be or not to be there's the question burn the witch burn the witch burn the witch someone's dying long live Germany! Germany, Germany, Germany, is a really, really nice place their food doesn't suck unlike English food. . .
Liechtenstein and Switzerland are suddenly thrown to the giant clock once again, as they were hearing breaking sounds. Crack, crack, crack. Once they got up, they saw two other nations, destroying the clock with their clumsy magic. Arthur Kirkland, also known as England, and Norway. Dressed in their wizard outfits, and cracking the mechanism of the giant, time-coordinating machine, who was making the spirit to cause enough chaos and trouble. As both siblings tried to interact with them, England accidentally fell inside the clock, with Norway sighing and having to get him once again.
"Hey, Norway, could you help us out of here?"
With Basch being the one who asked, the rich nation just stared emotionlessly at the other two, just shrugging and grabbing his book.
"I would really like to help you two, but unfortunately, I can't. I know this world; I just don't know its name. The only way you may exit is to know the reason why you're here. Consider that it's not easy to figure it out, but I helped you a lot in this part by breaking this clock, which was messing up with space and time."
Both siblings looked at each other with a bit of confusion. Looking at Norway again, he simply disappeared without any warnings whatsoever. It was their turn to figure it out what was the whole reason why they were in the strange world. Getting out of the clock, they see a dark sky, and stars everywhere. It was Space itself. Some stars were larger, others were smaller. Some planets were gaseous, others were rocky. Galaxies tried to claim the Universe.
As they swim around the boundless, dark void, they see a strange, shiny swirl that looked like a drop of milk. According to Greek Mythology, the milk from Hera's breast made that celestial body. A cluster of stars, dust, gas, and many more than just stars. It seemed like a whirlpool in pure space, which wanted to suck everything around it. It was our very own galaxy, named the Milky Way. Galaxy even was derived from the term "milky" in Ancient Greek.
Entering the bizarre, real life portal, the stars were way too shiny to perceive what were their real colors. Lili couldn't wait until NASA made glasses in which makes everyone able to see stars, in the way how they really are. She kept being curious about their real structures after learning that white was our star's real color. What's the real color of the universe? Maybe it's black, she thought.
Traveling in an extremely fast speed, they both saw many stars in which Alfred F. Jones's programs won't shut up about: Antares and Betelgeuse, two red super giants in which people always fight to see which one is bigger, Rigel, a blue star which was really hotter than red ones (Basch complained about how he and his sister could really sweat when they came near it), Pollux, the famous orange giant, and many dwarf stars around them, which didn't seem to shine at all. The majority of the stars around them were dwarfs in which were desperate to shine throughout their whole lives, but couldn't. It was like minor celebrities in which wanted to be known by the whole world, or minor internet users in which wanted to become famous by the any and every single social web ever.
They also got the sight of many planets around them, proving the bodies on our Solar System aren't the only ones in the universe. Many were gaseous, others were rocky. Lili always wondered what if a rocky planet was with rings, or if Earth had rings, like Saturn. We could see a Milky Way-like ring every day and night, but what if the asteroids came closer to Earth? That would be the risk, she thought. She didn't know very much about Astronomy, she just reached the beginning of adolescence, after all.
