Iep leaned against the drywall of he and his siblings dirt cheap house. Relic was sitting on the kitchen counter singing about her victory on being able to please Keira by bringing her five prisoners.

"Y'know, maybe that Skoodge guy wasn't lying when he said the irkens don't care about him, maybe we should leave them out of it!" Iep said, they all looked at each other and burst out laughing.
"Like I said, he said that only to fool us. If we use those Irkens as a sacrifice we could bring the tallest to the their knees!" Roxt bellowed.
"YEAH!" Iep cried.

Relic stopped singing for a moment.
"But what happens then? That won't bring Tessa back..."
"It's what she would of wanted Relic you said it yourself!" Roxt laughed slyly.
"Maybe killing innocent Irkens wasn't the way to go." She stood up and unfolded her wings.
"Where are you going?" Iep wondered.
"I don't know."

...

Relic stood at the huge marble grave that was Tessa's. Tessa was the closest thing she ever had to a mother as hers disappeared the day after she was born. Tessa laid a flower down at the grave.

It was a peaceful, serene moment of Relic staring at the grave wondering if Kiera was in fact correct to kill off all Irkens because one didn't know who he was messing with when the sound of screaming interrupted her.
"WOW! WHAT A BIIIG STATUE!" A tiny robot is shriek sounded from behind her.

Relic turned around quickly to see that little robot from before! It was staring up at Tessa's grave with wonder.
"HOW DID YOU GET OUT?" Relic shrieked.
"I don't know!" They said, now in a softer tone. They pointed up at the statue of Tessa.
"Who's that?" They asked. Relic sat down and the robot followed her.

"That's guardian Tessa. She was killed by an irken invader."
"Like my Master?" The robot gasped.
"Yeah.."
"By the way do you know where he is? I think we should be going home to Urth now, it's kinda weird here." The robot looked around sadly.
"I don't think you all will ever return to that planet again." Relic shrugged.
"wwhhaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAA?" The tiny robot shrieked. They began wailing, rolling around on the ground screaming.

Relic grabbed the little robot in her arms to try and soothe them. She rubbed its little dented head and whispered to them.
"It's okay little robot. What if I bring you to him? Will that make you happy?" The irken robot immediately calmed, looking happy.
"Yes pwease." They said cheerfully. Relic looked around.
"If anyxorik sees me with you they'll freak!" She whispered, suddenly the robot pulled out a green dog disguise. Now noxorik could tell.

"Come on, i'll bring you." Relic started on the route to High prison.
