This can't be happening...what did they do.
Next thing I know.
A tear rolls down my face...and I scream to the Oracle's
"WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN US, WHERE ARE YOU YOU FUCKING COWARDS. YOU'LL LET INNOCENTS BE SLAUGHTERED. THERE IS NO GOD!!!!!!!"
Hundreds more have gone up to the titan and lost their lives.
A feeling of despair fills me.
I begin to fly towards the titan and I get my weapons ready. I already know the effort of one man is futile against that of a beast. I will still try. As I get into the inescapable grasp of space my ship begins gaining speed towards the titan.
The third fleet is stationed and ready to fire.
I hear small explosions...more individuals wasted over this beast.
The beast moved forward. He looked ahead towards my home planet and shot fire from his eyes and mouth...oushing the debris and countless bodies as he moved forward. It was as if he had a personal vendetta against my home.
The fires he shot forth scorched the lands...he then looked to the third fleet. Without the notion of his arm or the rising flames of his eyes...the third fleet exploded...3 million dead..
It was over...this was over..nothing was destroying this beast.
I started myself full throttle towards the eyes of the beast, and as I hit full speed a flash over came my vision.
I was blind I couldn't see anything. All the chaos and chatter over the radios was silenced. Space went from black to white. The white began to fade...
There was an enormous entity. Cloaked in a white coat. A sword with ancient etchings. It was an Oracle.
The titan stumbling backwards regained his balance. Both the titan and the Oracle went at it. Blow after blow.  It was heard across the million universe expansion. Clash after clash. The titan and Oracle both worthy opponents. The titan swung and knocked the Oracle back. Dismayed the Oracle took a few moments to catch it's bearing. The titan got closer to my planet and I knew this was gonna be it. This was the end of all I knew. The Oracle and Titan fought in the black abyss. Blow after blow, hit after hit. I was staring at the clashes...they were tjat if mythical proportions. The titan struck the Oracle and he stumbled back.
I looked at the titan and he turned around, he stared dead at me.
He reached for my home planet and he grabbed it and held it in the palm of his hand. 
I closed my eyes and looked away.
I braced myself for the deafening sound of my home planet to be destroyed...but instead I heard a deep roar...that of which you would hear if something was in pain.
I opened my eyes and looked back at the titan and the Oracle had pierced the titan through the chest with its sword. The etchings on the blade weren't a metal anymore..they were a neon blue...that slowly flickered...the titan started to weaken and relax...his skin began to crack with orange and then the next thing I knew...the titan exploded in a climactic burst of white.
I covered my eyes to shield it from the brightness...the light faded and the Titan was gone. I stared into the distance and saw the Oracle slowly fading...its light blue eyes were the last I saw of it..then it was gone.
I sat In my ship in utter disbelief as to what happened...i slowly turned my ship around...and looked at my home planet...a large portion of it was on fire,  The platinum city was destroyed..and the army was gone. I flew back to port...
I landed my ship and hopped out.
I hit the ground and dropped to my knees...
It's over....I look up and I saw Saturn...the crystal rings radiated in the sunlight.
I closed my eyes...and relaxed on the dock.
I woke up and it was early in the morning...not sure what time...but it was bright.
I sat up and looked around and it was quiet. The air had a thin layer of smoke grazing the amethyst skies.
I stood to my feet and saw people around the port...I walked up to one of the men and asked
"Where did you guys come from"
I looked around and saw another man helping a small child, I looked at him smiled and nodded.
Before he even answered I saw a mercenary ship....they sent help..and people to rebuild with us.  I ran out of the port and up the charcoal colored hill. I looked around...the land was scorched a little in the distance but the damages weren't as extensive as I had imagined.
