Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Chapter 468: Memories Of The Past Part One

White House, United States

"So your saying this is all real? We have finally been visited by aliens?" The president asked as he looked at the reports in front of him.

"Sir it is all real. At this rate, if we do not move soon, another country will jump ahead of us and take them away before we can. The technology they hold must be highly advanced if they could come to our world as a vacation." A man in a general's uniform explained.

"Then send a team to extract them. Use any means necessary as long as they are kept alive." The president replied.

"Yes sir!" The man in a general's uniform saluted before turing on his heel and exiting the room.

Moscow Russia

"President, your orders?"

"Do it."

Beijing China

"Send a team and retrieve at least one of them."

Japan

"Sir, as we see it, all the first world powers will be sending in their best men to acquire one of these aliens." A man in a suit said.

"Send out our best forces to protect them. We can not have the land of the rising sun be destroyed because of some foreign nation. The other powers only think about themselves, so no matter who it is, kill them." A man sitting behind the desk folded his hands and let out a sigh. He would do whatever he had to protect his country, even if that meant using his military as bodyguards.

On the other side of things, Alicia and her group had finally returned home after a long day out, after the issue with the military was taken care of, the rest of the day went without a hitch. But as Alicia walked through the door, King Augustus stood there staring at her with a helpless smile on his face."Brat! Do you not know that you are all over the news?"

"Mmm I know. But I do not care. This whole house is covered by a barrier that wards off attacks and keeps those with ill intent from passing through, and even if we were outside of it, it would not matter. Earth's technology is not good enough to deal with things they have never come across before. Just wait and see. Over the next few days, we will have many visitors. Not to mention that we are actually being protected by the Japanese military as we speak." Alicia felt the whole situation to be somewhat amusing. She had seen a few science fiction movies when she was Akari where the governments of other nations would send in elite teams trying to steal away the aliens and force them to spit out all their technology.

Sadly for these said countries, they will not have a chance to put a hand on any of her family members. Never mind gaining any new technology. Alicia let out a yawn. She was mentally exhausted from the long day. She dragged Blake with her as she went to her old room. When she entered Catherine was laying on the bed reading a manga. "Big Sister Catherine!"

"Alicia?" Catherine looked at Alicia a bit surprised then a thought crossed her mind. "Wait is this your room?"

"Mmm This was my room when I was known as Higuchi Akari. I grew up fifteen years of my life in this room. " Alicia looked around at its nostalgia. She had changed in this room before leaving to walk around with everyone, but she was in a rush and did not get to really look at everything.

"Do you want it back? I do not mind." Catherine said as she closed the book in her hands and sat up. 

"No, it's fine. But could you give me and Blake some time in here? I wish to show him a few things about my past." Alicia answered.

"Sure, I will go check when Blanche will be back." Catherine smiled and got up leaving the room for the two.

Alicia walked over to her desk and caressed the top of it. Besides the fact that it looked lived in due to Catherine staying in it, nothing had changed. The position of everything in the room was just like she remembered it. On the desk was a picture of her from when she was in high school. She was in her kendo uniform with Miya, her best friend, at her side. It made her wonder how Miya was doing now. 

"So this was you?" Blake asked as he looked at another picture that was of Tang An, Tang Ming, and a young girl of about fourteen. 

"Mhm! This was the me of this world." Alicia said with a smile.

"You seemed very happy." Blake said as he pulled Alicia into a hug.

"Mmm, I was But I am happier now. Back then I knew nothing and lived so carefreely that I feel so stupid. But those were also very memorable times for me." Alicia said, her face showing a soft smile as she thought back to those days

"Akari, wake up!" A voice called out to the sleeping girl on the bed. Akari's body shifted slightly as she groaned and then curled up into a ball not wanting to leave the warm comforts of her bed. 

Tang An who had a spatula in her hand listened carefully to any movements upstairs and sighed when she realized her sleepy head daughter refused to wake. "This girl! " Letting out another sigh, she turned to the stove and turned off the heat before getting a cup of water and making her way upstairs. Tang An, waved her hand, making the door to Akari's rooms open up. She then walked right over to the girl still sound asleep and with the cup of water in her hand poured it on top of the girl's head.

"Ahh! Mom!"
