10th day since the Watcher arrivals, Sannekth brought a news they have finally found a perfect home for human. He instructed everyone to only brought pairs of clothes and an important keepsake before divided them into groups of a thousand to take turns boarding the transport craft at the cargo bay.

  His father hugged Sebastian and wishing him well.

  "William," said someone behind them.

  They turned to see Widodo and his granddaughter behind them. Apparently he has decided to accompany his granddaughter joining the Watcher. They heard Sannekth calling for the first group to get ready at the cargo bay gate.

  “I want to give when you’re 25, but..”

  His father gave Sebastian his cherished locket. Inside it was the picture of his mother, he smiled at his father.

  "Bring your mother to explore the galaxy with you.." he tapped Sebastian's shoulder "And, good luck to you too.." giving Widodo a handshake.

  "Good luck William," he smiled "keep everyone save.."

  “You too..”

  Giving Sebastian a smile, his father left to joined his group.

  The cargo bay gate opened and a hunchbacked alien with a head resembling bird entered the cargo bay along with several Umistrics and Garbitians. The Garbitians looked different from Sannekth and his companion; they have brown fur and pair of small horns on top of their nose.

  Sannekth approached the hunchbacked alien and introducing them to his father. His father waved at him one last time before entering the gate with the hunchbacked alien, followed by the chief and the captain.

  Sebastian went to the bridge to see the alien ship. There were people there, he recognized them, they were the bridge crew. One of them stood by the window, looking at the humongous ship parked a bit further from theirs.

  "You're the president's son, right?" asked the one stood by the window "Sebastian?"

  He nodded.

  "I'm Robeau, but just call me Rob," he grinned.

  The other 2 also introduced themselves, they were Santi and Travis.

  "Magnificent huh? those ship," said Rob.

  They were talking about why they joined the Watcher when the door slides open and Enid entering the bridge. She looked around and quickly approached Sebastian.

  "I've been looking all over for you," pouting her cheek "Anyway, they told us to gather at the mess hall near the cargo bay."

  "Oh! okay" he looked at Rob and other 2 "Are you coming?"

  Santi and Travis shook their heads.

  "Nah.." Rob waving his hand "We'll catch up later.."

  Sebastian nodded. He and Enid left the bridge and went to the mess hall. They walked through the cargo bay which was still crowded by people waiting for their turn boarding the transport craft.

  At the mess hall, only few people were there including Widodo, his granddaughter, and Alexander.

  As the time passed, more arrived at the mess hall. Finally, Sannekth and his companions entered the mess hall, informing them another ship will be arriving soon to picked them and instructed everyone to only brought their most important keepsake.

  Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

  A boy asked about the animals still living in the ship. Sannekth assured him they will be properly taken cared of later. Everyone went to their room, meanwhile Sebastian who already had his memento stay behind at the mess hall; he flipped his locket to see his mother.

  After everyone returned with their keepsake. Sannekth entered the hall together with a humanoid alien wearing a metal spacesuit, telling them to get ready in front of the gate, their transport ship has arrived.

  While waiting in the line, Sebastian noticed Sannekth's new companion wasn't with him. He heard a loud thump and Gersoth ordered them to moved back a bit from the gate.

  "Ampr, open the gate," He talked to his wristband.

  Sebastian heard a static noise and the gate opened. A group of Umistrics entering the cargo bay led by a short female Umistric. Sannekth spoke to her before introducing her to everyone.

  "Human.. it’s time to bid our farewell," said Sannekth "my friend Fende here will be your new guide," he motioned at the short female Umistric.

  "FENDE!? La seu elani Fende?" she yelled.

  "Nekth!" scolded Ammaurith.

  "Sorry.. sorry.." he grinned.

  "Mi ine iuna ela adi Fende- e! ia nai adi Firthe-." said one of the Umistric, but he stopped when she glared at him.

  She looked at them and yelled "Listen human! my name is Firthe not Fende!"

  Sannekth and Gersoth laughed, Ammaurith gave them a disapproving looks while Firthe shot them a death glare.

  "Anyway..." he stopped laughing "Firthe here will bring all of you to our home."

  "Follow me! human!" she shouted as she entered the gate.

  Everyone began entering the gate, but Sebastian left the line, leaving Enid behind. He heard her calling for him. He approached Sannekth and expressing his gratitude.

  "We'll meet again later kid!" Sannekth smacking his shoulder.

  He rubbed his shoulder and asked "Uhmm.. I’m wondering... what is Fende mean?"

  Sannekth and Gersoth bursted out laughing.

  Ammaurith sighed and told him "Fende is an Umistric word for tiny, please don't call her that, she’s a bit concerned with her stature."

  Sebastian nodded. He waved at them and rejoined the line. Entering the gate, the cargo bay airlock chamber was now connected to a long corridor, leading him to the alien ship.

  It's beautiful he thought as he looked around, the ship wall was made of a white stone, he touched the wall, it's wet. One of umistric there told them to kept moving. Sebastian followed the direction given and arrived at a hall with a large window on the side.

  "Sebas, over here!"

  He looked around, Enid was waving at him beside the window. He went to her side. She was annoyed because he left her behind. Sebastian apologized to her and was about to tell his reason when-

  "Attention, human!" Firthe announced. "We are about to depart, our destination is 2 cycles away, in the meantime, we will train your body to get used with our gravity, and later teaching you everything about the watcher."

  She clapped her hands twice. Several Umistrics entered the hall, they were pushing tables piled high with foods.

  "For now.. eat, we also prepared rooms for each of you to rest and some clothes."

  Sebastian and Enid walked to table and filled their plates with steamed fishes and slimy green vegetables. They ate while standing near the window, watching as the ship getting further and further away from their ship. He noticed the arrivals of another alien ship before it disappeared from the view as blue curtain-like light enveloped the windows.
