As their eyes remained locked, a piercing shriek pierced the air, emanating from the sacred chamber of Mellisah's beloved offspring. With a sense of urgency, the two sisters and their patriarch sprinted towards the room, only to be confronted by an enigmatic figure, hoisting the innocent children aloft. This man, known to their father as the ruler of Pluto, sent a chill down their spines. "Release my precious progeny this instant! How dare you subject them to such torment!" Mellisah's voice boomed, resonating with unwavering authority. Meanwhile, the father of Mellisah and Mellisando, gripped by terror, sought to flee from the impending horror. Alas, his attempt to vanish into thin air was thwarted by the piercing gaze of the Pluto king. "Do not even entertain the notion of escape, for I shall disperse you into mere fragments! You are well aware of what I seek; your response to our accord has been long overdue. Frustrated by the interminable wait, I have taken it upon myself to claim what is rightfully mine!" he bellowed, his fury palpable.
Left with no recourse, the Uranus king, father to the two sisters, pointed an accusatory finger at Mellisah and declared, "Behold, the object of your desire!" Startled by the sudden accusation, Mellisah's astonishment was evident as she retorted, "Excuse me? Father, how can you reduce me to a mere object? Am I not your flesh and blood?" Sensing the gravity of the situation, Mellisando swiftly approached Mellisah, cautioning her that explanations, questions, and arguments held no place in this dire moment. She warned her sister that this marked the commencement of a battle they must emerge victorious from, or face certain demise.In a mere blink of an eye, the regal ruler of Pluto unleashed a surge of formidable forces towards Mellisah. But lo and behold, instead of these powers striking her, they crumbled and failed to inflict any harm.
In that very moment, astonishment consumed everyone, for they now truly believed that Mellisah possessed a celestial might within her being. The progeny of the Uranus monarch, Mellisah, extended her arms and a radiant cascade of luminous rays enveloped her entire form. With a resounding voice, she cried out, "Mother! Mother! Wherever you may be, bestow upon me the strength to triumph in this battle and eventually reunite with you." Power surged through her veins as she engaged in combat against the Pluto king. As for the children, Mellisando safeguarded them, standing steadfast in a corner and utilizing her meager abilities to shield them beneath the shelter of her wings.
As the battle raged on, growing ever more arduous and grueling, Mellisah and Mellisando's father attempted to seize a cosmic vessel and flee. Alas, fortune did not favor him, as he was struck by the Pluto king's formidable might. Mellisah despised and could not bear witness to her father's fate, thus, with a scream that pierced the heavens, she exclaimed, "Father! No!" She leapt forth, unleashing her own powers that reduced the king of Pluto to mere ashes. Following this, she rushed towards her father's blood-stained and emerald body. In her embrace, she cradled his head and wept, pleading, "Father, father, please do not depart from this world." Sadly, it was too late, and this tragedy caused Mellisando and the children to shed tears of profound sorrow.Before his final breath escaped him, these were the words that escaped the father's lips, whispered with a voice heavy with regret and sorrow: "My beloved children, I beg for your forgiveness. I am deserving of death, for I have failed to do right by myself and neglected my duty to care for you. I...I am so deeply sorry." But before he could utter the rest of his plea, his life slipped away, leaving his words hanging in the air. The two sisters, along with their children, wept uncontrollably, their tears a testament to their grief.
As the sun began its descent, casting a golden glow upon the world, they gathered in the living room to discuss their impending journey to Earth now that their father had departed. They carefully packed their most essential belongings, preparing for the new chapter that awaited them. Additionally, they arranged for a grand assembly at their father's palace, a meeting of the Uranus people, to inform them of their imminent departure from the planet they had called home for so long.
With the break of dawn, they laid their father to rest, bidding him a final farewell. Then, with heavy hearts, they returned to his palace one last time, collecting mementos that would forever remind them of the man they had lost. Mellisah's children, not so young as to be oblivious to the gravity of the situation, but still innocent in their understanding, discovered a treasure within their father's briefcase - 23 stars, twinkling like precious gems. They divided the celestial jewels amongst themselves, a symbol of their shared bond, before embarking on their journey to planet Earth.
