The Fir Nashions warp ship launched itself from the Relisvante space station. The coordinates were set for Aurora's garden and all procedures were checked. The 10 Black Mutants were ready to move out. All that was left was to push the warp button and they would begin their mission.

The warp would be instantaneous meaning that the ship will appear at the coordinates within a second. M1, the one in charge of the mission, hovered his finger over the button.

The click of this button would determine if their planet would survive. Or the click of this button could end in another failure and be the end of their survival. One click to let them gain an advantage in this losing war.

He gently brushed his finger upon the smooth surface of the button.

As he was about to push it he felt something amiss and looked up and around. He looked at his fellow comrades and around the ship, looking for something that had caused this uneasiness.

He had found nothing. Nothing to soothe his uneasiness. He looked back at the button and decided to clear his head one last time. He nodded to M2, his childhood friend that was born in adjacent test tubes, and pressed the button.

At the same time, a brilliant beam of light surged by Relisvante. All forms of technology were shut off on Relisvante and everyone froze on the planet. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stood there, dumbfounded at the tech that had shut off.

The warp ship, however, was only slightly affected as it was already in warp at the exact second the beam had interfered. The beam had interfered mere nanoseconds after the warp and although it didn't shut off the warp engine it had scrambled its coordinates.

Everyone in the ship hadn't even realized what had happened before the warp started and were sent on their way. The scrambling of coordinates was not a simple error. It had sent coordinates to 31,536,000 different locations. This meant that they would be warping for an entire Earth year before the system would stop its warp. Luckily, unknown to them at the time was that the last destination was approximately near Aurora's garden

They had no means to stop it as they were already in warp and they would not get the chance to even move before the next warp occurred. They had to stay still and hope the warp would end soon.

So they began their universal trek of 1 second to different locations. It would have been a great vacation if they didn't have only 1 second to experience the view. 

Surviving with no food for 1 year was normal for the Black Mutants, as they were genetically modified even more than their predecessors to become even more of a fighting machine. So they could only sit still and wait.

On the 31,535,999th warp, just 1 second before the final warp and the arrival of the destination at Aurora's garden. They had to delay their plans by an entire year because of the mysterious beam and could only hope that their planet and people were still existing. The Ship warped to Aurora's garden. Right into the library where Aurora herself stayed.
