I was practicing boxing with Roland. Oleg came with my new guard. Moacir was an expert on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He saw me practicing and he explained what I need to do to be more fluid when I fight. Roland asked him not to give me his blood just yet. I took a breath before I kept my level. I watched him and Roland go head to head. Then I went up the ring to fight. I watched his movements as I tried to be fluid as possible while I tried to avoid his punches. He landed one punch and I swung my leg around his to drop him. He was surprised for a brief moment. Then he doubled down to knock me out. I did my best to slip between his legs and grabbed his arm to throw him over my head. He was surprised how fast I can be. I grabbed his shirt and pushed him to the floor. He fell down and stared at me for a second. He got up and Soren came to tell me about their plan to leave with the last alien batch.
He explained how they are the friendly ones. He mentioned this was a favor for protecting them when things got ugly. They would like to go somewhere peaceful and the know we are tired of fighting. They know they were told to evacuate because the other aliens tried to delete humans from existence. We are going to find a new habitable planet to repopulate. I warned him that the humans will try to prove we are the bad guys so we would lose our transport. I passed it along to everyone and they started packing their stuff. We decided to leave at the same time so they can't stop us. Everything was removed and we moved in unison. The aliens came to move us out. We go boarded the ships with our prized possessions. The human workers were let go and they were sent away after we hypnotized them to forget. I got all my stuff and waited till they came to get us.
They were called Aegean. They are water based alien. They let us board their ship and we got to the upper atmosphere. We held out breath as we go the clearance to take off. We saw them go into light speed. The ships resembled whales. They were amused by our interest. We travelled till we reached the capital of the galactic society. It was called Hae. We came as refugees and requested an uninhabited planet to repopulate. We wanted a planet that wasn't promised to someone thousands of years ago. It better not be a planet someone else calls sacred either. They had just finished the war. The enemy had bombed a planet and it is vacant. There is no one to populate it. So us Nocturnals got the planet in the eastern quadrant. The planet was renamed Nocny. The capital city was named Bloodstone or Krovavik. The Aegeans got a water based planet they named Aqueous. They promised to help us if we get in trouble.
The nine continents were renamed as follows. Heliotrope also means bloodstone, Zedan sūm means thirst, Liutasć meaning brutal fury, Razvedka means scout, Svoboda means freedom, Vojsko meaning army, Kryt means shelter, Okeānsas in ocean and lastly Horský terén which means mountain terrain. They can tell that I missed home so they name a few cities. Heliotrope got Tsar, moonstone. Svododa got Piedra de la Luna. Horský terén got Excalibur and Umbrella fortress. We even got a city named dragonfly. The construction bots took four days to build everything to our request. We had to inform the head of the galactic senate. They sent people from the intergalactic cartography department to scanned everything. They mapped and labelled exactly as we mentioned. They named the sector of the galaxy Nocturna.
We had to vote and place a member in the senate. We sent a one of each. They switched places every six months so there won't be a case of superiority complex. We had taken seeds from the seed vault so we grew plants from home sweet home. We also brought a few goats, cows, chicken and sheep. We didn't bring humans. The vampires and werewolves were sent to college to learn. They came back and they moved to the cities in Razvedka. I roamed all over and settled in the Pasha district. I was happy to find my cottage waiting. I wanted to study the seasons. This is so I can grow vegetables and fruits. Instead they sent me to Krovavik for protection. Langston was a high security building for VIPs. I prefer equality so everyone was allowed to visit me. The dark knights reinstated as the local law enforcers. Aeronautics were the situated the rings guarding the planet. The military were called Angels while the assassins were called Wraiths and Reapers. Flying vehicles were the norm here. Everyone was trained to fight and had spend a year in service.
We got an apartment in the Hae for our representative. The royal family are diverted to the jeontong sector. I was named the Empress and I was summoned to give a speech to the galaxy. I spoke in unified and it was translated to billions of languages. Species from many different races and identities were pleased to have someone new. They were eager listeners. I was introduced to the commercial guild and the banking society. Then I was introduced to the technician's union. Then came the rulers of different planets. Finally I was invited to the Kaiser's private ball. The people who attended it had the most polarised personalities. I focused on making a place for my people. After the party I researched the valuable items. I found out that certain precious metals were on top. Eragon was kind enough to explain we had more than that.
We got membership in the guild and began selling Diamond steel. We became one of the richest. The Kaiser explained that we need to come up with our own style of ships, style of clothing, royal seal, government and public seal and our own currency. We were allowed to expand to nearby uninhibited planets. There was no hostility amongst the others. We had no children and we were immortal which was a surprise. But they didn't seem to care. We sent our best to refresh their knowledge on the latest information. We promised not to be complicit with genocide and we promised to be part of the peacekeepers force of the galaxy. Since our population wasn't going to grow they had the science department extract DNA from us. They mixed the DNA from vampire and werewolf to increase our population. Once they were satisfied with our numbers we were allowed to send people to join the military peacekeepers.
The war mongers were annoyed that we chose to reject them. They filed an official complaint. They were told to mind their own business. If we didn't want to go on a killing spree. We have the right to do so. The Kaiser asked if the representative was permanent. I replied, "There will be a rotation. I would like everyone to have a chance to speak their opinion." He was amused and approved my idea. He asked if we follow the cast system. I explained that we don't believe in such barbaric custom. He grinned to hear that. We made sure we had friends in different places. They like our honesty and we appreciated the heads-up. The werewolves were pleased they won't have to scan the area for zombies. The smarties have given them semi permanent PTSD.
I finally decided on my seal and so did the government. They chose the original coin as the currency. The gold ones were called Zoloto. Silver ones were called Silviro. They had stamped me in monster form on one side and the head of the bat and werewolf on the other side. The public had a simple seal which was their name in calligraphy. The government had the calligraphy seal for normal situations and the official seal which depicts their department. My seal was a dragon or Fyr with a wreath made from a thorny branch. Our clothes were simple for non governmental citizens. A simple suit for government officers. I got to wear robes of red and black. Which golden headdress that doubles as a crown. I wore golden nail extensions and a heavy make up. I made sure everyone was rich so they wore whatever they liked. The Kaiser was amused that I put my people first. Oleg explained that the golden absolute law was I must not be harmed.
