Chereads / Saire Valid / Chapter 9 - Chapter 9 - Lucky

Chapter 9 - Chapter 9 - Lucky

"... Is everything ready? "Sakura asked, seated at the center edge of the the cockpit of the Flagship from her newly acquired fleet. Four humanoid machine type AI crew members took charge as Cheir had been tending to her own ship as she followed close behind at the center of the new fleet all of which, consisting of five entire starships. "Launch! "

The ground quaked as several massive bright lights were seen leaving Earth with most of the survivors of the human race. Sakura only looked ahead as her eyes twinkled with the bright hazy blue skies turning dark and soon, she saw the world in all her beauty and grace before it was to been ravaged by pollution and inevitable demise.

"Thank you, Mother Earth. I shall never forget you... Partly because I 'stole' about thirteen hundred acres of land and a crap-ton of materials beneficial to humanity's continuation... So, yeah... Go in peace and sorry our ancestors were real cucks'... "

Feeling awkward, Sakura turned and headed froward slowly toward the North side of the moon. Once there, the other starship's she had scattered had collected survivors from around the world, now met up behind her in close formation and soon, Sakura raised her low, sharp gaze and set forth toward the edge of the galaxy.

Being immortal, she would live countless lifetimes and remain eternal in youth as she could only continue to rise in her Cultivation base. It was only the beginning.

[Somewhere Inside The Fifth Starship]

[1 Week Since Departure]

"... When are we going? "A little boy asked, his hands to his stomach while a bright glint held in his two blue eyes.

"We are going towards the future, honey. "The exhausted young woman spoke with a forced smile as she had lost dozens of close friends and family members to the zombie apocalypse. "We'll be fine, sweetheart. We'll be-"

Suddenly, the woman peeked her head from her spot on the far edge of the wall as she looked to the platform high above and met a pair of deep, black and white eyes that were looking all around and abruptly, landed and met hers.

"You-"Sakura had raised her hand and pointed at the woman who, in a moments notice, was isolated as everyone as they spread out to give her and and the little boy space.

Seeing her image and then flicker within the blink of an eye, a powerful shockwave echoed as Sakura was now standing before the woman, inches from her face.

"What is your name? "Sakura asked with a nonchalant tone.

"L-Leyla... S-Simons. "Her voice was horse yet, she spoke nonetheless.

"Hmm... Lady Leyla, are you the woman who has been tending to the groups here for the past several hours? "At her words, Leyla froze as her face went numb. "Hmm... I suppose so, judging by the reaction, you are. Good. Come with me, I need capable women to stand by my side. Will you come with me, Lady Layla? "

"... Y-Yes. "Leyla did not know why she was chosen or rather, didn't bother to care as she felt her little nephew's future was more important than her own life. Layla had promised her sister that she would look after her son in her place, that was after she was bitten first and then killed by scavengers. At the moment she arrived at the starship, she had just been going around, tending to peoples wounds in an effort to gather information about what was really going on.

It was a mute point as she gathered nothing expect for one name.

"My name is Sakura Hajime. I'm the Commander of this fleet and nothing more. Will you come with me? "Sakura asked as she had her own reasons for recruiting the young girl before her. After having seen her in her past life, she remembered that Leyla had been a steadily rising prominent figure in the future.

She caused many problems with the scavengers as if she was driven by hatred alone to exterminate more than the zombies. As such, having a smart and capable young woman on her side would he beneficial to her running things while she was gone.

Turning back, Sakura had taken careful consideration in choosing only women to lead and take charge on all five starships as she knew men would have a 50/50 split chance they don't abuse their power. Thus, this way, there was order and control. Using the holographic council room, there were now five 'Govenors' of the five Starships. Alyssa of course, was the head 'Governor' that organized and worked with the other 'Govenors' as she held her place in the fleets main Flagship after Sakura had them gathered.

~

"So... Hi, everyone! I'm Alyssa Kazemi. I am the 'Governor' of the main flag ship and I am also the leader of over 2.5 million people onboard my ship... Heh-heh. "Alyssa spoke with an uneasy smile.

"I-Im Olivia. I am 'Governor of the second Starship... Lady Sakura picked me from the millions of people in on my ship, I am confused. "

"I'm Jekali. I was chosen by Lady Sakura as well. I lead the third Starship with pride! "

"Dana, I'm the fourth starship leader also chosen by Lady Sakura... Hello. "

"My name is Layla, I was also chosen. "

After a stiff greeting, the group began talking and making plans on how they would organize public security after much deliberation and in time, they would then become prominent figures in the era to come.

[Seven Years Later]

"... Ahh, hmm. It's another beautiful day in my space. "Sakura woke from her two day nap after having completed the 37th floor in what felt like an eternity. "I should probably head back to the ship and see how they are doing. "

Nodding, Sakura walked over towards a single staircase in the middle of a field and upon touching it, she closed her eyes and opened them to find she was now at the very first floor of the pavilion.

'I'm really glad the pavilion has a "save" feature that let's me continue where I left off, but its getting very challenging the higher I climb. '

Turning, Sakura had not aged a single day yet, now wore entirely new clothes. A single white dress, silver and white armor guards, two light-brown winter boots and a black and white scarf with a hint of a deep, violent red.

Sakura's hair was cut short and now her hair hung freely down her ears and neck. Showing her deep and bright black and white colored eyes.

Inhaling a breath, Sakura closed her eyes and instantly dissapeared into thin air.

When she left, and when she returned, Sakura was shocked brought by the drastic changes in her fleet.

"Alyssa. "Sakura spoke with a cool and indifferent tone from within her seat on the captains bridge as she was unsure if she was dreaming.

"... Welcome home, Lady Sakura. "
