Blue and purple explosions rocked the ground and I led Lillian towards the teleportation room like Mother and our Father the King asked. We crouched down underneath the system and I started pushing buttons. My twin watched, trying to remember and memorize everything. We were just alike but I was the independent, older by heart.
I hesitated before pressing the last button, looking at our home.
“What are you waiting for?” Lil asked, slight concern hidden in her voice.
Memories zipped through me as I applied pressure to the blinking light. We started dissolving and I sat back on my heels, watching as the different colors whizzed by us. Blue, red, yellow- the background was the purest of whites before I was blinded. Then everything went black.
I woke up surrounded in ice. I sat up and looked around. Lillian was lying on the ground a few feet away, still out. I saw my reflection in a slab of ice and noticed how purple my eyes were now. Purple… That was the twelfth color, right? Were we twelve stars away from home then? Lillian stirred and I rushed to my sister.
“What happened?” She asked.
“I don’t know,” I replied.
I helped her sit up and found that her eyes were purple too. She looked around and saw our predicament for the first time.
“Can you manipulate it to get us out?” She asked.
I shrugged and tried. The ice above us disappeared and we started to climb. The cold didn’t affect us but someone who had been waiting was. It was a man by a helicopter. He was bundled up tight. We cautiously walked over to him.
“Welcome to Earth, my friends.” He smiled. “You’re with good company now.”
“Earth?” I asked. “How far are we from home?”
“Not too far, but we need your help before you head home.” He said.
“What kind of help?” Lillian crossed her arms.
