2186 “ … ” Hana was limping and dragging herself through the snow, the crystal white was stained by her crimson blood .:. I must find a way off this world. I’ll be locked up forever if I am caught. .:. Following from a distance, a group of Mobilizers were treading and plowing through the snow, using the foot tracks Hana had left behind. Hana was in a lot of trouble, after encountering against the only person she loved with a violent resolve – There was no way that Hana could return to the life she knew. “Keep following the tracks! She couldn’t have gone far!” A Mobilizer pointed out, if it’s true that Hana didn’t go far, the chances of getting caught are in her favor due to the lack of Soul-Residue. .:. Up ahead- it’s an emergency shuttle. I’ll take my chances. .:. Hana thought to herself, was she about to make an escape from Testharia? If she does make her escape, she can’t be tried, Testharia’s territory can only go so far. She would be wanted but only wanted by the Testharian Government. Hana was willing to make this decision because that means once she goes off world. There simply is no return. The emergency shuttle Hana went to was unattended, of course it was used in case any officials that need to travel off-world immediately without needing to wait for the traffic that surrounds Testharia. This was Hana’s perfect opportunity to escape but could she really escape? Leaving the world of Testharia and surviving is one thing, but leaving everything she had and stood for behind? It was an uneasy thought process, Hana had always been different like the others, she was ready to give all of that up for the sake of survival – But what led Hana to do such things? What was her motive? Did Hana see something behind the likes of Azrael and Testharia? Hana sensed the Mobilizers marching closely by, she approached the hatch of the shuttle and broke the handle, forcing the door to open. The shuttle isn’t special; it was functionality over vanity and Hana had the necessary tools to make it off world. .:. I’ll get this fired up, but where would I go? Where COULD I go? I don’t know much of what’s on the outside, but I should try anyway. .:. Hana was jumpstarting the engine of the shuttle, because it had been dormant for quite some time in the cold, some of the ice needed to break to get the cylinders to fire up. The engine made a sporadic sound, kicking out a lot of fumes that alerted the Mobilizers. “Hey!- OVER THERE!” The Mobilizers marched over, loosely trailing behind would be Azrael. It was too late; however, Hana got the shuttle into an airborne and there were no air units on standby that could be requested in time. “Your Majesty, she is getting away!” One of the Mobilizers exclaimed, worried about what their king must be thinking. “Head back to station, there is nothing we can do. Once she exits the air space, she is beyond our reach.” Azrael looked up, watching the shuttle turn into a small speck, leaving the world of Testharia. .:. My daughter… if this is what you want – I just hope you don’t end up regretting this. .:. The space security of Testharia gave a greenlight to the shuttle, since it was an emergency shuttle, it was presumed that an official had to make a quick diplomatic mission, though in truth, Hana was escaping from Testharia. ” Where to now… where do I- hhh.. ” The injuries Hana sustained finally caught up to her: the exhaustion of battle. Regardless of strength, power and persistence, all beings falter to one thing and its exhaustion, Hana experienced this and thus was starting to pass out. The shuttle had a locked route to a planet that Hana might have overlooked, entering lightspeed travel that course to that planet. Who knows where Hana was heading to now. - Buried in the western galaxy, a cold and desolate planet capitalized by brutal industrialism is cast into an iron core resource mining world, Minos-VIII. Hana would find herself in this world, but she would soon come to realize that this planet is in contro
