Since Earth was still uninhabitable in this current timeline, we had chosen Mars, also known as Draconia according to Solana, as our destination.
"Okay, so wake me up when the new Bitcoin all-time high ends," I said to Oracle as Mayumi and I got ready to sleep in the cryogenic pods.
I had named the AI in the girl's blue hoodie tablet gadget Oracle out of boredom.
"No problem," Oracle replied.
While we sailed through space, I taught Oracle everything about crypto, from the history of blockchain technology, Bitcoin, altcoins, to the latest narrative according to my entangled present time. As expected, the artificial intelligence easily adopted the knowledge and became my virtual assistant.
"And one more thing! If you find that Mayumi needs my blood, just wake me up, okay?" I said to Oracle.
"As you wish, Ms. Patricia," Oracle said.
After a few months of cryosleep, Mayumi woke me up urgently.
"Why, Mayumi? We are only in the middle of April 2021 according to my time of origin. We still have two months left before we reach planet Draconia," I said to Mayumi as she showed me the Bitcoin chart.
I freaked out with joy and ran and jumped everywhere in Solana's spaceship. Then I accidentally hit a random button on the cockpit's control panel and something unexpected happened. The ship slightly changed its course, and an asteroid hit its right wing. Then the ship started to spin in space. While we spun, an intense flare of light suddenly appeared from the cockpit's windshield. Then the spinning stopped.
"What happened, Oracle? Why did we stop spinning?" I asked Oracle while lying on the floor.
"Why, Patricia? Did you enjoy it? I did not enjoy it!" Mayumi yelled while panting and lying on the floor.
"Please look at the window, Ms. Patricia. There is an unknown biological life form looking from outside the window," Oracle said.
There was a fuchsia pink-haired girl looking from the outside, but she had no spacesuit! "A ghost!" I shouted and hugged Mayumi tightly.
"What? I am not a goat, and I have a name. Please call me Zetris," Zetris said as she passed through the cockpit's windshield, vibrating.
"So you are here for your baby boy? We do not have him!" Mayumi said to Zetris, ready to attack.
"No, no. I was just sent here to save you two from spinning too fast and to sort some things out. Do not worry. I am not here to fight or hurt either of you," Zetris explained.
"Are you a time-traveling superhero?" I asked Zetris.
"Maybe you can consider me something like that," Zetris replied and laughed.
"What are you? What is your relationship with Solana?" I asked Zetris.
"Easy, easy. Do not worry. I swear I will answer all your questions one by one. In this case, maybe I need to accompany you until you reach planet Draconia. This is going to be a very long discussion," Zetris said.
A month and a half had passed since we started our discussions, and yet we were still learning many things about the Pantheons of Lyra, Skylark, and Cygnus. She said that her origins came from three races from planet Draconia, who originally came from the Skylark galaxy, Nameik Kolohv or Kepler-22b that resided in the Cygnus constellation, and Planet Lyra that belonged to the Andromeda constellation where men looked like women by default. Only the pointy ears were an indicator of male Lyrians. The Pantheon of Cygnus was inhabiting this Milky Way galaxy. She also claimed that my true origin was from the same planet as Solana, which was Nameik Kolohv.
The Pantheons were celestial beings of Elementalis. An Elementalis was a star that could take the form of a human, until one of the Nameikians discovered how to create a flesh-and-blood vessel from a higher source. Solana was the one who made this breakthrough. She was known as Doctor Starlight throughout the galaxy.
"So, am I an Elementalis too?" I asked Zetris.
"No, you are not, unfortunately. You are the famous twin sister of Solana, after she inhabited a humanoid body," Zetris said.
As the conversation went on, Mayumi grew bored and asked for a long cryosleep in a cryogenic pod. After that, Zetris's mood changed abruptly and she said, "I have to give you the message now, the real reason why I am here."
"Okay," I replied.
"Because of Solana's death, her followers and the other Pantheons of Cygnus will hunt you down. They will start a war and destroy Lyra, as you remember. Patricia Draconia told you that Lyra was gone in the 21st century, but it was not a natural disaster. It was the result of war. It has to be stopped. Pure Lyrians have great significance in this universe. You need to hide on Earth and part ways with Mayumi, because her life will be in danger too if she stays with you. Solana terraformed Earth, creating a dense manasphere. This manasphere will act as a barrier that will prevent them from finding you. You two must separate to ensure your friend's safety," Zetris explained, then pressed her thumbs on my forehead.
After that, I returned to my normal form, a black-haired girl.
"What did you do?" I asked Zetris.
"I turned off some of your chakras, but I left 21 of them open," Zetris answered.
"I do not get it," I said to Zetris.
"Let us say I reduced your celestial powers, because you are not ready for those other dimensions of life. There will be someone who will teach you how to use your celestial powers properly. Your husband is waiting for you. You love each other," Zetris said.
"Wait! What?!" I exclaimed, shocked.
"Yes, you are not just the famous twin sister of Solana. You are the Imperial Queen of the Lyrian Empire. Your king is waiting for you in the pre-colonial period of the Philippines," Zetris revealed.
"As I thought, my visions and my flashbacks were all true. So the anonymous girl in the blue hoodie was right all along," I said, touching my forehead and trying to grasp the reality I had to face.
After we arrived and landed on Draconia, or Mars, we decided to leave Mayumi alone inside Solana's spaceship. I did not want to do it, but I had to, for her sake, for our sake. I had failed as a friend, as a sister, and as a lover. But my memories were slowly coming back, and I needed to find my husband. A sense of responsibility for my people from Lyra was more important to me.
It broke my heart as I kissed her forehead for the last time, knowing that I was going to abandon her after everything we had been through in this long journey.
When I stepped out of the ship, crying and holding the tablet gadget, Zetris created a portal to Earth using her technomancy.
I love you, but goodbye, Mayumi...
