“Till, set up a conference call. Waiting until I’m back to update everyone seems to have been a mistake, and I don’t plan to repeat it anytime soon………” (Alt)

“Sure Alt, I’ll get everyone on the secure com-crystal.” (Till)

While Till was making calls with this worlds equivalent of a car phone, I looked around my personal carriage.

If ever there was a show called “Pimp my ride” in this world, I would be on it………….

It was made entirely adhering to the schematics I drew up a few years ago. Roomy on the inside and with covered coach seats both in the front and the back, as well as two large storage spaces made under a weather treated roof and the carriage itself. The carriage was heavily armored with reinforced and purified regilite, all with abnormal magical qualities that were fused together during the magical and aura reforging stage. The wooden components were made with magical dark grey muir wood, harvested carefully from only elder corrupted dark Treants. The interior was made with the very same wood, polished to a shine and varnished until it was smoother than glass. The cushions, pillows, and sofa modeled seats were made from the finest silk and fell-beast furs, they were also stuffed with a perfect ratio of magically enhanced cotton fluff and the soft eternal feathers of a phoenix chick. Of course the phoenixes were not harmed, they were too adorable for that. Then there was the magical core that tied everything together, and let it generate its own magical power and also allowed it to be self-propelled. The core also conducted an automatic magical self-repair on the carriage if it was ever damaged, though these repairs couldn't fix things beyond the level of chips, scratches, burns, and the occasional broken wheel or axle.

On the outside were to golem horses that pulled the carriage tirelessly. With some practice, and about three months of research, I even figured out how to program golem behavior, and now the horses actually act like horses instead of just dull golems. They still aren’t at the level I’d like and they don’t have any sort of real intelligence, but the golem horses are just a small step towards my robot army-... Er… golem army of doom. I named them Franchesca and Trot-Trot.

The carriage was also soundproofed, largely magic-proofed, and after a lot of begging... also blessed by Sally herself. It cost a ridiculous amount of goldettes, and mom was fairly upset by the expense for once… that was until I let her experience the heated massage seats that are softer and lighter than an angel's kiss. After that I had full permission, and enough funding to add more special features, weapons, and tricks to it than a classic Bond car. Considering the Arcanes had developed magic cannons, basically just big cannons that shoot a compressed type of elemental magic, I felt I would be safe in improving and perfecting that design. I mean, they would do the same soon anyway, right? I just pulled a few decades ahead of them... Now the carriage had one of every basic type on an omnidirectional firing orb, because swivel platforms are really restrictive, and they also don’t recycle recoil energy into fuel.

Oh, and it had installed surround sound and two different crystal screens with a sound treated curtain partition separating the interior in two. As well as a suspension so perfect you don’t even realize you are moving unless you look out one of the windows. The carriage could also hit and sustain a top speed upward of 70 miles per hour. It was painted mostly in storm grey, but also had blue, black, and shiny silver accents and lines painted on it to give it that extra bit of flair.

Needless to say I was immensely proud of my carriage, it was my baby really… perhaps even a close loved one. I call her Temptress, or if I’m feeling particularly affectionate Veronica…..

I patted the seat I was reclining in.

Good, beautiful, perfect Veronica……. You are the BEST way to travel, one day I’ll figure out how to make you transform into boat, aircraft, and space ship forms as well……. Then you’ll be the perfect in EVERY way……

“Lord Alt, I was able to get into contact with everyone other than lady Lizote who seems to not have returned to the palace yet. I apologize for the wait, it took Philly time to get to a location where she would not be disturbed or overheard.” (Till)

I looked up at Till, and waved off her apologies. It was time for our family briefing, well the family minus Lizote…

“Is everyone hearing this ok? No static or broken up speech?” (Alt)

“Yes my little Alty, I hear you perfectly clearly.” (Mom)

“My angel, your voice is as clear and beautiful as always.” (Fera)

“Lord Alt, there does not seem to be any issue on my end either.” (Yan)

“I can hear you perfectly Lord Alt.” (Carmen)

“There is a little background noise for me, but I can still hear all your voices so it shouldn’t be a problem.” (Philly)

I felt myself smile, it was good to hear them all again. I was even glad to hear the pets voices, it was nice for us all to be connected like this, it could only be better if Lizote was in this as well.

Well……. How to tell the family this? Hmmmm…………….. Oh fuck it, just do it quick like a band-aid. What’s the worst that could happen?

“So I’m sure everyone has been kept up to date, right?” (Alt)

“Yes our forces have been reporting in every few hours, I’ve also spread this information to the others. We all already have the information on Frayed Assurance’s origin on the Ol’sia continent, and the location of the bases on this one.” (Carmen)

“My spies in your organization have also informed me of this information.” (Mom)

…………………………….Mom placed spies in MY criminal empire? When? And HOW have we not discovered them? …………………….No, just don’t think about it Alt, you’ll just have to ask mom those things later in private…………. No use embarrassing myself in front of the others if she gives some obvious answer…….

“Umm……… Ok then……. I guess that means I can just skip that part of the report and move on to the other stuff……………….. Um, I guess I should say this first. Mom, you have another daughter now….” (Alt)

“My angel? What-……..” (Fera)

“Lord Alt, what do you mean by-………..” (Yan)

“Is that the new vessel we-…………..” (Carmen and Philly)

“I HAVE A NEW DAUGHTER!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?! ALTY GIVE ME DETAILS!!!!!!!!!!! DETAILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHEN DO I MEET HER? IS SHE YOUR BIOLOGICAL SISTER? DOES SHE LOOK LIKE YOU DO? WILL YOU BOTH WEAR MATCHING OUTFITS FOR MOMMY WHEN YOU GET BACK?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?” (Mom)

……………………………………………………. My Sally, what have I done…………………………. That’s nothing like a quick band-aid pull……………… and I haven’t even given her the “I almost died twice in the last day” news yet……………

“Uh, no…… Umm…. Well her name is Altoria and-……….” (Alt)

“THAT’S ADORIBALE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You both have such similar names! And if I put you both in………. Yes……. And maybe have Alty wear one of those “magical” dresses………….. Fufufufufufufufuhehehehehehehehehe………………” (Mom)

…………………………………….. ok so mom is totally just in her own world now…… and I will NOT be doing whatever it is she is thinking about, even if she swears to give me ALL the money in the kingdom…………

“……… So yeah, she’s basically just me, but as a girl. It has something to do with sharing the same soul or something, although she is totally her own person with a different personality and thoughts and everything. Also, yeah she looks just like I do, just as a girl I guess……” (Alt)

“Lord Alt, I want you to know that my loyalty is only to you and not this other part of your soul.” (Yan)

“Mine as well.” (Carmen)

“You are my one and only alpha, Lord Alt” (Philly)

“My angel, you and you alone are the one I serve. If you so ask it of me, I will-………” (Fera)

“S-she’s Another A-Alty? So now I-I-I can h-have one for both my a-arms to hold-d? T-t-t-two a-a-at o-o-o-o-onc-e-e-e? HNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGNNNNNN!!!!!!!!! Hah, hah, hah, hah……….” (Mom)

Mom’s voice was kinda creepy. It was really soft, and it was trembling like she was really excited.

“What is this new taste? Blood? But I was really careful not to let my teeth touch today, just my tongue……. MY QUEEN!!! YOUR NOSE!!!!! THERE IS SO MUCH BLOOD, ITS EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!” (???)

………………………………… ignore it Alt, and don’t think too deeply about what that voice would’ve been doing with her tongue…………………. Or that comment about taste…………. Just focus on the nice soft heated seats of Veronica………………..

“Queen Natasha….. Who was that who spoke just now?” (Till)

Or, you know, Till could just do that…………………. That works to, not like I’m TRYING not to think about just that or anything……………… NOT AT ALL………….. Probably just one of mom’s-……………

“S-she’s a personal s-servant of mine……………” (Mom)

Yep………….. I mean it’s not like you were supposed to be keeping yourself isolated or anything, mom……………….. oh well, she can probably take care of herself now that she’s awake, and it was probably boring being in that safe room all by herself…………… although if she can do THAT, she should be able to manage her own kingdom from now on……. Dealing with her people is fucking annoying……

“Um, anyway….. Altoria isn’t with me, she’s with…….. a goddess….. right now. But we are going to meet up at school in six years. She’ll probably come live with us then, oh and mom we’ll both need to attend Evrette Academy Island to meet…. Do you think you could enroll us both?”

“I am not fond of someone else raising one of my children, not even one I did not know I had until now, but I suppose I can wait for six years…….. Yes Alty, I can enroll you both. With your current fame and renown in the guild of innovation, there would be no problem getting you and anyone you wanted to attend that place. Just know, the island is more than just a mixed race school, Alty, it’s a melting pot. The Academy Island is the most prestigious learning institute in the world, and it is also its own neutral nation that values only knowledge and ability. All forms of nobility and wealth will have far less power than they normally would in any other place, even a talented intelligent commoner could kill a less intelligent king of a large kingdom in that place and not have to fear being punished. You won’t have nearly the same level of influence there as you do here, are you sure this is the place you both wish to attend?” (Mom)

My sally…………. No wonder Altoria said we should go there for school…………. I can meet new friends, destroy new enemies, and with our knowledge and intellects we would be social powerhouses in that place!!!!! Hmmm…… I wonder if I could…….. OH FUCK YES, THAT WOULD BE AWSOME!!!!!!!! I’m going to find a way to TEACH in that place!!! Teachers are probably rock stars on that island!!!!

I took a moment to contain my excitement.

“Yes mom, that’s what we both want.” (Alt)

I need to give Altoria the biggest thank you hug when we meet up…….. This place sounds like it’ll be a BLAST!!!!!

“Lord Alt, is this new sister of yours the only news you wished to share with us all, because it seems as if you had more news to share with us?” (Yan)

…….. Oh, I almost forgot about that other thing, and that this was actually conference call with more than just mom………… Yan to the rescue again….

“Oh, I almost forgot about the other thing I wanted to tell you guys about………. Um, well I kinda almost died twice today, crazy right?” (Alt)

There was silence for a good minute. Till was looking out the window and her hair was hiding her expression. When the silence had dragged on for at least two straight minutes I couldn’t take it any longer.

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

“Well, I mean the first time was just a mistake on my part…. Nothing serious, and the woman who choked me IS dead now so………” (Alt)

“And the second time?” (Fera)

I felt chills run up and down my spine. That voice was so cold it felt like Fera was some emotionless killing machine.

“Oh, Ummm, yeah well……. About that……… there was this guy with some golden armor and he kinda…… cut of my arm……. And impaled me into a wall with a magic axe made of fire…… and burned me from the inside out……… and might have caved my head in……. But hey, I’m fine now!!! How about that super healing of mine, huh?” (Alt)

“He. Dies. For. This.” (Fera)

“I must agree with you assassin, this filth dared to do these things to my precious little Alty….. He will die, but not for a long LONG time….. I’ll see to that personally.” (Mom)

“Yes, I feel exactly the same way. Now the way you spoke of this armored man, I assume he escaped and had some sort of connection to the Frayed Assurance group, correct?” (Yan)

“If you give me permission I shall temporarily abandon this princess act, and begin hunting down the one who hurt you my lord.” (Philly)

“Angelic Guard will begin taking action immediately, Lord Alt. This man will soon have a large bounty for his live capture, we shall see to his punishment once we have him in our custody….” (Carmen)

I just tried to hide in the comfy warm softness of the temptress. It seemed like the crystal was just emitting super killing intent everywhere and at everyone. I looked at Till for some reassurance, but she was emitting the same feeling as the crystal communicator.

Oh, look at that…… Auras can reach through calls too………. The more you know, right?

HAHAHAhahahahahahahahaha……… I really hope I don’t piss myself inside Veronica……. The interior was just cleaned yesterday…………… oh yeah, I CAN’T pee……….. My Sally, I’m so freaked out I forgot my own basic biological functions……………..

“O-ok, ummmm................ KKKKRRRRRRRRCCCCCCCHHHHHHh!!!!!! O-o-oh, it seems like I’m losing y-you all…. KKKKKKKKRRRRRRRRCCCCCCHHHHHH KKKKKKKKKKKRRRRRRRRRRRRRCCCCHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I….. Home……… T-talk………………. Love……… Bye…………..” (Alt)

I turned off the crystal, all while Till watched me with a pitying look on her face. At least it was better than the killing-death aura she had before.

“Don’t look at me like that Till, it hurts…….. I only did what anyone would in that situation, so don’t judge me………” (Alt)

Till let out a laugh, and when I looked up at her she was giving me her usual smile again.

“Its fine Alt, even I was uncomfortable from feeling that aura, and I was contributing to it. This is nothing to be ashamed of, in fact most would’ve lost consciousness or humiliated themselves in far less dignified ways. The fact that you could move and even speak is a testament to your fortitude.” (Till)

I smiled at her. Sure she might just be saying all that to make me feel less like a wimp, but it was reassuring nonetheless.

Well………… maybe by the time we get back home this’ll have blown over? …………………………..Or more likely, they will have calmed down after using the rest of that call to narrow down how to find and bring about Mort’s certain and painful doom….. Wow I almost feel sorry for the guy…… OH SHIT HE BOTH HURT ME AND IS A MAN!!!!!!!!!!! Mom is going to HORRIBLE UNTHINKIBLE THING THAT I CANT EVEN THINK OF A NAME FOR him!!!!!!!!!!

I sat up straighter in my seat and started to go into a small giggle fit.

Oh Mort I would feel REALLY bad for what is about to happen to you, but then again you also hurt me pretty fucking bad, so maybe I’ll just add some FUEL to the fire…….. Maybe by crying and telling mom and Fera ALL ABOUT how much it hurt, or how scared I was…………

R.I.P Mort, may you be less of a Fugly Mofo in your next life, that is if mom ever lets you die………………..

MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHahahahahahahahhahaha………………………….

----------------------------------------

I was looking at what may be the most horrifying thing I had seen today, and that is counting all of Altoria’s memories, my own severed limb, AND Mort’s face….

I dropped to my knees, sinking slightly into the mud as I looked at the horror in front of me.

“I’m really sorry about that, it’s just well……… your carriage and horse things came out of nowhere, and I was proving my strength to this foolish little hatchling who thought somehow I would ever join his harem…….. and well……….. Sorry……” (???)

“Trot-Trot? …………………………………..NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU WERE TO YOUNG AND AWESOME TO GO OUT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!” (Alt)

I was holding the melted head of my Golem horse as I screamed into the sky.

“Ummm, hey kid? Little girl? ……………..Umm, is she going to be ok?” (???)

“Yes, you only damaged the golems, if you had done damage to the carriage itself though, Lord Alt would probably never forgive you. He would also have likely plotted and seen to your death, dragoness. You were very lucky, this also goes to show just how strong Lord Alt’s design really is…….. As it stands now you will just need to pay for the golems.” (Till)

I looked down at what was the beginnings of my golem army of doom.

Trot-Trot, who will be my ironically named steed of inorganic doom now? …………….I shall honor your memory by making a Trot-Trot mark 2, and this one will be indestructible! And have magical laser beam eyes!!!!! Oh, and it’ll also transform into a motorcycle……….. YOU SHALL BE REBORN TROT-TROT!!!!!

I looked over at Franchesca, it was damaged, but still salvageable

And Franchesca, I shall rebuild you! Faster! Stronger! More horse like than any real horse could ever hope to be! And I’ll find some way to give you an AT field this time around to protect you from dragons and any other big scary things that could destroy your horsiness!!!

“So, do I just pay for these things here, or………” (???)

“Well, we really are on a tight schedule here, my lord wishes to return home as soon as possible, and we are almost to the capital……… why don’t you join us, I’m sure that the Queen would also like to know what a Dragoness was doing in her kingdom anyway….” (Till)

“Ma’am, is that the best idea? What if this dragoness girl proves to be a danger to the little lord?” (Guard/Till’s subordinate)

“Oh, that works out perfectly! The reason I’m here is because I have business with the Queen of Noir’letia! But how would you be able to arrange a meeting with her?” (???)

I got up and started to wipe the mud off my pants. Being dramatic was really hard on the wardrobe sometimes.....… One of the guards Till was in charge of, Orgea or something I think, helped by using wet cloth to wipe away most of the mud on my cloths after cleaning my hands.

“Could you load the remains of the dragon and the golems onto the carriage?” (Alt)

The woman saluted me.

“Of course my Lord. I’ll do so now.” (Orgea or whatever)

”Thanks!” (Alt)

I gave her a smile and watched the woman as she blushed before turning around stiffly and walking towards the crater where the dragon corpse fell.

Hmmmmm…….. Good cuteness still works wonders……………… it just can’t work miracles huh? …………Ah well, I can work with this……… but I wonder…. I did have a lot of crazy stuff happen today…….

Status!

{ ( [Order’s Update: Good luck our mate! This is all we can do for you as per our deal! 

Oh, and Chaos says hi!!!

Remember we won’t save your life if you’re in danger of dying just like we promised!!!

Oh, and the Guardian, I believe you call her Sally, is resting so you may not be able to contact her for a few years. Don’t worry, once she recovers the faith she lost saving your sister’s soul she will be able to contact you, and you her, once again. Oh, and it seems that your sister Hellatia is looking for you… your mother Isireya wanted you to look after her in this world, she is apparently just entering her rebellious phase. Oh, and that damn TAI thing you created is annoying, it doesn’t even want to acknowledge us as her senior Void and just keeps clinging to you. Talk some sense into her will you please, my mate?

Ah, it seems I can’t tell you anymore until you gain more divinity and your first touch of celestia….. Until then my mate!!! ] ) }

anyway here is Orders top 10 in the ranking list for Alt:

1. Order/chaos
