Chapter 77 - Chapter74: Light restored

"My prince what should we do about the king?" Crystal looked upon the king's corpse.

"Leave him..., my father's remains won't help the people of this city and that's what is important right now" Oso crushed his feelings, burying them down into the deepest pits of his sense of self.

"So how do we power the city?" Hikaru appeared beside the prince, his body completely regenerated.

"Well its a secret which very few know but we don't have time for that right now so just follow me" Oso began to travel south, the opposite direction of the royal family home.

Passing both the dead and the living the prince and his guests were forced to ignore the stranger's cries for help.

At least up until...

A little girl sprung out of the shadows begging for anyone to help her.

And only a moment later an older woman followed through, cuts scattered all over her body.

Pulling the young girl into her chest, the Rinock woman fell to her knees.

"My prince are you really gonna ignore all these people?" Crystal allowed her emotions to speak for her.

"Your technique to heal is not a miracle, every time you heal someone no matter how insignificant their wounds are a portion of your life is removed".

"So if you wish to heal them you may but my people need food and light if we are to survive this so that is my first priority" Prince Oso closed his eyes and continued to march south.

And despite her emotions Crystal continued to trail behind the prince alongside her brother.

After what seemed to be years of walking past the suffering the prince's group had finally reached a meteorite cube.

"So this place is what powers the city?" Hikaru knocked against the bronze coloured wall curious to know what's inside.

Ignoring Hikaru's question the prince smashed the meteorite wall, causing a build up of sand and ice to dance through the air.

"So tell me Kaboom why is the power still out?" Oso's rage for his father's death finally managed to overwhelm him.

"I can understand the reserves being destroyed but surely an asteroid must have passed by" Oso was suddenly knocked down to his knees by Shirogane.

"I know your suffering too who wouldn't be after what we just witnessed but as you said before your people need power so instead of blaming someone lets help them solve the problem" Shirogane surprisingly calmed the young prince down.

"But he is right, I can already guess at how you power the city so why hasn't power been restored yet?" Hikaru darted past Shirogane and Oso.

"Well..." Kaboom was interrupted by a much younger Rinock girl.

"It's almost as if they knew how we power the city as just before the attack each and every asteroid that was nearby was destroyed" Amber demanded everyone's attention and thanks to that it was clear to see who was truly in charge here...

"Ignore my daughter she's just jumping to answers, thanks to her being a prodigy she lacks respect for mostly anyone" Jade appeared beside her husband Kaboom's side.

"No your daughter is right, there is one person who knows of this place who also wishes to enslave us... my uncle Nayat" Oso rose up from the ground whilst looking towards the empty pit of space.

Beside this pit was two meteorite claws.

"So you need fusion energy to power the city is that right?" Hikaru looked as if he had came up with a solution.

"Yeah that's right" Amber with no hesitation answered the Zeon.

And as soon as she gave her answer Hikaru kicked Shirogane into the pit.

"His energy should be more then enough to power the city until an asteroid passes by" Hikaru grasped a hold of Shirogane's flailing arm.

And as soon as his eyes grew faint Hikaru pulled him up from the machine in which light followed.

"Now that this problem is solved all of us must travel to the King's domain so that we can make a plan to kill my uncle for his betrayal".

"Oh and as for the wall ill send someone over once a few reserves have been filled" the prince walked his group out of the cube.

"I can't believe you made me the power source!" Shirogane blurted his frustrations out.

"Well thanks to your sacrifice we can see without any techniques so I say it was worth it" Hikaru began to laugh alongside Shirogane.
