chapter 26

In the enemy hideout

(Sunny pov)

Iris: Neptune, keep an eye on them while I go help X

Neptune: Okay

*I tried to go towards Uranus, but Neptune grabbed me*

Neptune: Don't even think about it. You better not be trying to escape

–I wanted to check on Uranus. That's all

Neptune: I don't care, I'm not going to release you

*I sight and let him hold me while Earth and Luna look at each other, concerned*

💭: What if they actually win? What is going to happen to happen to us

Titan: Geez, who knew that it would be so boring to be an hostage

Luna: it's not like we can do anything about it

– At least you guys might not get brainwashed, unlike me

Neptune: You were already brainwashed by the rocky planets when Iris got you

– I'm not going to say anything about that because it would be pointless

Earth: Can I have my earthling back

Neptune: No, you won't give her to Iris when he comes back, so you can't have her

Earth: ...

With the giants

(Narrator pov)

*Saturn, Jupiter, and X were exhausted while Iris was still in good shape*

Iris: X go tied up Uranus before he regain consciousness, I'll take care of those two

X: Okay

*X grabbed Uranus and dragged him to the other hostage before tying him up*

Neptune: You're hurt. You should take care of your wounds. I'll keep an eye on them

X: Fine, I won't be too long

*X grabbed the first aid kit and started by cleaning the wounds before putting the bandages.*

(Sunny pov)

💭: I have a really bad feeling right now. Uranus is an hostage now, too

Neptune: How is it going so far

X: Jupiter and Saturn are injured and exhausted like me, but they are still fighting

💭: Maybe I can communicate with the Sun from here and ask him what to do to get out of this situation. It's our only chance at this point

*I try to establish the connection between me and the Sun*

💭: Come on, work. It's our only chance to win

*I tried to establish the connection even harder and finally managed to do it after a few minutes.*

💭: I did it now. Let's ask for help

*I connect my mind with the Sun mind*

💭🔗: Sun, can you hear me? It's the earthling speaking

Sun 💭🔗: Oh, the earthling. Is something wrong?

💭🔗: Well, basically, Jupiter and Saturn are currently fighting against Iris. Uranus, Luna, Titan, Earth, and me are being held hostage by Iris, Rémina, Sedna, X, and a brainwashed Neptune

Sun 💭🔗: That's not good. Are you able to move around a little bit

💭🔗: No, Neptune is holding me

Sun💭🔗: Hmm, I think I might have a solution, but I'm going to need you to let me control you

💭🔗: I don't think I can do much in this situation anyway, so go ahead

*The Sun symbol activated and turned red immediately*
