Chapter 8_Epilogue 

“You’re back with us.” Nigel quietly quips smiling at Mike Edison and cradling a sprained wrist. 

“Back… What happened? Oh no it was…” Mike replied suddenly remembering.

“Yeah I saw it. A giant fuck all spider topiary that called itself the Harmony Tribunal. She really did a number on you and a lot of us.” Nigel adds rubbing his sprained right wrist. “Most of the injuries are minor thanks to Blueblood, Director Watson and this fellow.”

Next to Nigel was the Boogieman Johnny wearing bandages on his head and right arm.

“He got the call about the same time I did.” Nigel adds. 

“Thank you my friends. We knew we had gotten in over our heads, but that… spider thing.” Mike replies groaning. “I was worried from the time we were split up that that thing was up to something. I recall hearing a cracking and seeing a rainbow light.”

“Boogie boogie… Boogie.” Johnny says.

“The Harmony Tribunal hatched from some kind of ethereal egg that showed up the moment you all embraced each other and blood like exploded from your bodies.” Nigel adds shuddering.

“What! Tell me about the others please!” Mike replies making his medical monitor spike.

“Easy… stay calm Mike.” Nigel replies with concern. “They’re in serious condition. I couldn’t hear it all but Brian and Lilly were separated and they rushed Lilly into emergency surgery. Tina was even more heavily bandaged than you. They had to pull doctors from Earth because it wasn’t safe to transport you.”

In the distance something about Lilly’s kit’s condition was yelled to a nurse who bolts away in a hurry to help.

“No one died Mike.” Nigel adds. “Even as smashed up as you guys were you somehow finished that bitch off. A lot of people and creatures working to pull you all thru this so trust them to help you like you did them.”

Sometime after the White Rabbit group welcomed a single hybrid fox human kit into its family. The 3 humans and one fox still have to split their time between Earth and the Equestria as ambassadors and Element Bearers.

“In other news Operation Crop Duster has succeeded in ending the Queensland Zerg Infestation thanks to the use of specially rigged fighter bombers that used Planner Trans-location Projectors to force plane shift the hive back to its home dimension. We want to give special thanks also to Samus Aran and the visiting Federation for their efforts in helping to contain this threat. Lastly Thank you everyone who pulled together to help in this cause.” A news reporter concludes.  

In another dimension in a far off galaxy a Metriod Zerg strain hive is birthed on a remote asteroid chunk. What new horrors will it bring?
