The New World | Millennium

Aftermath

It was nighttime the day when Tirek was defeated, Ogav and his convoy of men had now retreated back inside Stalliongrad where they were stationed.

Despite the ruckus that this caused, the Americans recalled their forces and returned back to Defcon 5 which gave a breath of relief.

However Yuri still has a task to do, despite his order not to interfere with anything between the Americans and the Equestrians he still has a grudge against Princess Twilight Sparkle, the witch whom he calls, despises her with every breath she takes, he even contemplated when She and Tirek were fighting to go beyond his orders and kill her himself when she wasn't looking.

Obviously, he had to keep himself at bay or it would end everything in his career and mysterious reputation, Yates has gotten away from him yes, and that was all because of Twilight Sparkle when she foiled his plan, but he also studied her friends as well, when he saw that she is even more powerful with her friends it became clear that if either of them were to be let's say... Cut out of the picture, then shall he be able to rampage against the wretched lavender pony!

And so... When he heard Yates was personally caring for his Captain and possibly friend he took this opportunity to study his enemy in plain sight...

But he needs a disguise, possibly a wig, coat or jacket, maybe a new pair of boots or shoes, and some pants, or otherwise he'll be spotted by either Twilight or her friends.

 He knows how risky it is, but perhaps it is good to study from his enemy, their beliefs, what makes them tick, and most important of all. Their source.

The source of what makes his enemy strong and powerful but first... He'll need some sleep, AND THEN! Carry out his revenge.

12:45 PM
.

And so the sun was raised by the magical will of Celestia and with his plan and logic in mind he grabs a hat, his usual vest, and tears off his R.I.B. Patches that would've plainly given him away in the crowd.

For the first time in an entire week, he stepped outside where it was packed with Ponies having their usual chat and shopping spree, speaking of shopping three buildings away from him was a banquet house known to be craze freaks when it came to style, perfect for his disguise although she is known to be friends with his enemy Twilight Sparkle but with some pizzazz and the ability to play dumb and naivety, and she will sway in which his persuasive attitude in a minutes notice, all in the downfall of her little dumb gullible pony brain of hers.

Stepping out of his house and into the general public the royal guards who were patrolling the streets of Ponyville paid no mind or attention to Yuri whatsoever which to him was a gambit considering that while he has a cloak he is more suspicious of wearing it in public more than his original appearance which prompted Yuri to jog a bit to the banquet to both lose weight from the fat he gained and also to keep himself omnipresent from the crowds of possible spectators and suspicion lookers.

Weirdly enough as he jogged towards the banquet he was surprised when he saw a new type of American tank in the street when in reality what he was really seeing was an M2 Bradley assigned with plex light infantry to check for undetonated artillery both shells and rockets so that they may close off the area for a controlled detonation of the ammunition, on Yuri's mind though he sees it as another weapon that is yet to be destroyed in the field of combat as he jogged on pass the American squad.

The banquet was just ahead of him. All he needed to do now is to just get in, talk about artsy crap with the designer and then just get out of there with the new disguise, easy! Of course, dodging suspicions from the locals, the American scum bags, AND Twilight Sparkle herself, is the main problem, if she was to wander around the same time he is and spots him the whole thing is blown.

However, as he walks he notices a big detail within the town that he's been staying at.

Yuri looked up at the castle with an expression like no other, his reaction was simple when he spoke these words.

"What the fuck is this piece of shit?" He asked himself out loud when a local who overheard him replied.

"Well darling, you didn't need to use such profane language when you could've asked," said a white unicorn.

The two stood silent for a couple of seconds before Yuri broke the short silence and asked.

"Well? Are you not going to tell me what that is?" 

"Oh apologies, that castle you've profaned is my friend Twilight Sparkle's castle," responded the white unicorn.

"Of course," Yuri sighed with aggravation when it was obvious the castle was purple. But wait? He thought to himself, why did she say "my friend Twilight Sparkle" wouldn't be "our" and not "my?"

It was clear that to whoever this pony was, this local seemed to know Twilight Sparkle, and perhaps by the look of her unique mane he decided to ask another question.

"And what would they call you miss?"

"My name is Rarity, I usually keep my full name to myself, I've been a bit tempted by your ghastly uniform! Have you ever taken a shower? And dear Celestia! Is that a stain on your white shirt?" Rarity ranted, and Yuri was surprised in a way.

One, he may have just found the fashion designer of Ponyville, and two, she's friends with Twilight, if he can get her to gossip away Twilight's abilities, powers, and weaknesses, indeed he can find a way to destroy Twilight in the long run, and perhaps spare Rarity given if she does well with his new disguising look.

"Well today is your lucky day, I was wondering if you could help me with my... (Red Mother forgive me) Fashion crisis...."

Immediately Rarity blew up with excitement and grabbed Yuri with her magic and dragged him towards her banquet house at a fast rapid pace which he then finds himself on a chair cushion surrounded by pony mannequins with some type of clothes of some kind.

"Sorry for the lack of the usual Humarican fashion, I've been learning how to properly dress a human perfectly with the help of my mentor who is from Humarica," Rarity explained, as she opened the cabinet and searched for perfect threads that she'll be using to create her own style of Yuri's fashion.

"Ah, and who's this mentor I wonder?" He asked when the door dramatically opened and it was a female Foxlander woman.

A woman with a mixture of Gradenlander and human, which the humans in Humarica would call 'beastmen.' the woman is young yet old enough to be married, she tends to have a child-like emotion. Of course, being 98% Gradenlander it is no secret that she has the tail of a fox that sticks out of her skirt along with the ear of a fox, but she does have a black snout which enhances her smell, which in her view is pretty annoying, only thing human is her head. And she is experienced in fashion. Her breed is so rare that it has its name, and so she is referred to as a Foxlander.

Her name is Olivia. (Keep her in mind)

"Rarity? Where did you go in such a hurry!" the female asked.

"Sorry about that Olivia, I was busy caring for this human who seems to be disastrously desperate in his fashion!" Rarity replied.

"Disastrously desperate ey? Well, nothing like a good fix-up here and there should do it, but first! Let's see what we're dealing with shall we?" Olivia insisted.

"Well certainly!" Rarity replied, as Olivia walked towards Yuri and lifted his hat, revealing his baldness.

"Holy Celestia! You're bald! I didn't know humans can get bald?" Rarity questioned.

"Yea... That usually happens when you have... Well, not a good type of virus to survive from, but hopefully we can make this guy happy, sir? Is it fine if I take off your vest?" Olivia asked.

"Why certainly, this devilish vest seems to be bothering me the whole time I've traveled here!" Yuri granted, and Olivia proceeded to unbutton his vest and took it off which now left them with a white trunk undershirt that looked disgustingly stained around his stomach and released a vile stank in the room.

So vile that it made both Olivia and Rarity cough uncontrollably.

"DEAR CELESTIA!" Yelped Rarity when she tried to find a pair of nose clippings before the stank could kill her, but Olivia grabbed a bottle of air spray and sprayed it at the vile stench all the way back to Yuri's stained white trunks.

The two breaths in relief.

"Gracious sir... How long has it been since you've taken a shower!" Olivia asked.

"Ehhh.. 1 or 2 months?" Replied Yuri, before being slapped by 5 towels thrown at his face.

"Go to the bathroom and wash up! We'll prepare what we need and then we will start on getting your clothes ready!" Olivia demanded.

"Fine... :( "

As Yuri went upstairs Olivia and Rarity sat down for a moment all tired from the stank that just occurred.

"Where in the world did you find this guy?" Olivia asked.

"Well, quite odd to say, he was just insulting Twilight's castle a moment ago, and then he changed his attitude and wanted me to give him a makeover," Rarity explained.

"Huh, so basically a hobo?" Olivia guessed.

"It would seem so, just by the smell, I suppose we get what we'll need for his makeover?" Rarity reckoned.

"Agreed.."

As Yuri had apparently gone to get a new-fashioned disguise I was placed in charge of clearing out the remains of military shells and rockets that had not detonated yet.

So far we only found 2 rockets that didn't go off, and so we placed them on the truck bed with the plan of conducting a controlled explosion in the field.

I've sent out orders, with additional paperwork, and solved disputes regarding two locals who insanely tried to keep a freaking live explosive in their yard! And calling it 'property' when really it's just a time bomb.

So after struggle after struggle, Twilight Sparkle luckily had come to my aid and forced the local in question to relinquish the bomb in our care which he did with a grunt, but now my men were looking around for explosives around the grocery mart, with successes being slim so far, I might as well shop for some stuff for the base and personally for Gold Star, so after the men finished scoping I lined them up in a forward facing line.

"Alright, you all did a good job checking every corner, and crack in this town, but now it's time for a better objective, we will need food for the base as we're low on rations and so we will need to replenish, your instructions are on these grocery lists printed out by your neighborhood friendly government, Corporal Higgins, you're responsible in gathering soups," I ordered.

"Yes, sir!"

"Sergeant Lukas, you will be grabbing some canned meat, pasta, and anything in a can."

"Understood, sir!"

"And Corporal Maya, get some pillows and soap, for some reason, we just had to court-martial 12 men for shitting and fucking on their pillows and some dirt vandalism that'll need clean, and we're expecting 34 recruits next week and I don't want to give our men dirt filled pillows or to arrive to our base that would look like a shit filled ghetto!"

"Sir yes sir!"

"Alright, get to work," I dismissed, as the men I've assigned go to work on getting the things needed for the base while I for one have my own list of things I want to get for Gold Star.

So far the case with him being an Alicorn was a bit spooky on how he kept this from me, I keep having panic attacks just thinking about it! Like how often does a male Alicorn come into form? Or a better question is how is he an Alicorn? I'm not a bookworm, although I know that Celestia and Luna were already born as Alicorns, but with the fact that Twilight Sparkle A ALICORN IS ASSIGNED TO GOLD STAR, WHO IS ALSO A ALICORN!?!

Unless... Hold on a minute... Oh, I see. So perhaps this was planned the whole time, either by Reagan or Celestia considering that Celestia is known to be mischievous in her sort of way had given her a mysterious face when she privately whispered to Twilight on the day the two met.

Very weird, but I guess I'll have to see as I would want to gather Gold Star's favorites.

Let's see how good this grocery mart is shall we?

After three hours of forceful brushing and scraping on his skin he was finally finished using up the bath water and turned the shower off, he stepped off and started to dry himself when the door opened Rarity casually entered when she sees Yuri butt naked which she screamed and quickly wrapped a towel around his middle parts with her telekinetic magic and then breath.

"Would you KNOCK FIRST!" Scolded Yuri.

"Well sorry! That I can't enter my own bathroom without the knowledge of a guest!" Rarity replied back.

"...Then learn when to knock next time! Got it? Haven't you done this with a Stallion once!" Yuri questioned.

"Not much, if anything you're the first human to ever come to my banquet, other than the ponies, mostly female," Rarity answered, as she grabbed the additional thread from what is supposed to be her medicine cabinet...

"How many threads do you have??"

"Quite a lot, an artist is always prepared!" Rarity prided herself as Yuri scoffed at her quote.

"Good Grief... How about Olivia? What is she doing?" Yuri asked.

"Oh Olivia? She left to go to the market to grab some Humarican exported thread, a specialty from the Southern Continent," Rarity glamor with her response.

"Great..."

So far I've gotten about 2 out of 10 on my list for Gold Star, which is a chocolate bar, and to get flowers, I was told by Twilight to stop by the Library- oh yeah. That's right... The library was savagely destroyed in the skirmish with Tirek, damn that bastard, I hope he suffers the consequences tenfold wherever he was taken to, now the only way for anyone here to get a book would be to go to Twilight's castle, the problem is though I doubt you can just walk through her doors and say "hey I need a book" I'll probably need an appointment or some bullshit.

But anyway, as I grabbed his favorite food packet the same woman I described earlier came into the aisle where I was, she then turned and asked.

"Do you know where I can find the thread?" She asked, with her tail wagging left and right.

At that moment I thought-

"Yeah it's down at aisle 12," I replied.

"OK, thanks! Mister?"

"Yates, I prefer to be called Yates really since my name is a bit embarrassing, what's yours?" I replied with a question.

"Olivia, my first name is a bit embarrassing too, but hey? I guess we both have embarrassing names, thank you again, it's nice to meet you, Yates," she thanked, walking away from my sight which left me with one single word...

Woah...

Troops marched, and marched, filling the spectating crowds with the feeling of patriotic duty and patriotism as the soldiers of the Rodinian army marched on Red Square.

The Red Mother watched as well with her people, her cabinet, the secretary general, and members of the Rodinian Supreme Soviet, as she gazed on her grown military might as the Rodinian pony brigade was now marching next to the soviet troops, followed by the invited divisions from Stalliongrad, and New Skynavia as both the griffon soviets and the pony red army marched in the square as spectators who traveled from Northern Griffonia to Stalliongrad watched in the crowd bleachers saluting to their fellow service manes and males as they marched passed them with the weapons they currently have in possession.

The music of the international continued to play, followed by other Soviet patriotic songs.

But it was then after the Rodinian naval men marched off that there was a sudden pause followed by the stomps of military boots on the concrete ground as the sudden sounds of rumbling came from behind the Kremlin palace when some of the pony and griffon children spectators pointed at what was believed to be the world's wonder weapons as jeeps followed by caravan vehicles followed by more but with howitzer artillery cannons which then followed by the new weapons featuring the SA-13 Gopher SAM launcher, and KAMZ tornado-Gs Multi Missile launcher built to combat against the new American Self-propelled missile launcher the HIMARs, an improvement in the arsenal. 

Following the new weapons came the newest Self-Propelled artillery which the Red Mother proclaimed.

"After years of research the committee of Soviet science gladly presents the new self-propelled artillery, we like to present the 2S19 MSTA Self-propelled artillery!"

And then as expected from the Red Mother cheering came as 10 of the new SP mobile artillery rolled through the red square in immense beauty with the soviet star on stripes on the sides as the pilots who stuck their heads out of the new weapons saluted to the higher-ups who watched down below.

Indeed this was a very exciting revolution day for Rodinia..

As for America though... Things are a bit complicated.

Tarō Asō watched the television in the bar which was broadcasting the Soviet parade, it was strange for an American bar to display Rodinian patriotism in the nighttime, but after watching what he calls the beginning of the apocalypses he might as well accept that everything is about to go down.

He's due to return to his home state with a formal report followed by paperwork about the new nuclear bombs that the American nation will soon produce. The explosion made him numb despite what he had already told about the bomb. His reaction personally was different.

To everyone, it was just an explosion, but to him it was... Something more...

As he drank the entire glass shot filled with whiskey whole, he laid his dollar on the counter.

"Keep the change," he said, as he grabbed his black hat and left the counter, he was practically the last one to leave despite that one guy who was so drunk that he fell asleep surrounded by his booze.

But as he left the bar and headed back to his paid apartment he kind of wondered about the possibilities that this weapon might bring upon the world, hell he can remember Blue Blood's response when he asked about it.

And that response was just silence, and ironically he would speak a lot..

He guessed that everyone has the same agreeable feeling that he has, and that was to say about Rodinia... Would they accept the fact that they can't outmatch America technologically? Or will they make life even worse with their next move...

After drying himself privately without any further disruptions or awkward run-ins in the bathroom Yuri was given spare clothes and sat down on the couch.

He and Rarity waited on the couch for Olivia to come back for the thread, but eventually, Rarity got bored and decided to make tea for the guest since the two were going to be there for a while until Olivia returned. But 23 minutes later Olivia comes back with the grocery bag with some food, essentials, and the Humarican thread they needed to create a custom fashion for Yuri.

"Alright, did you get the thread Rarity?" Olivia asks, placing the bags down.

"Why certainly, did you also get what we'll need?" Rarity asked back.

"I did, two batches of Humarican threads, and a newspaper," Olivia replied.

"Excellent! Let's get started shall we?" Rarity insisted on raising the measuring rope in front of her face, and then the two stared at Yuri who was sitting on the couch watching the conversation knowing that he was in for a makeover session.

And he dreads what came next.

After assisting the men with the supplies we'd hoarded and bought I was about to climb on board my Humvee which I was accompanied by a driver, it was then that after a 12-minute drive to the edge of Ponyville and onto the road that leads to our base was when I noticed Twilight Sparkle and two of her friends, being Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, were accompanying her as the trio seemed to be heading to the same destination.

So out of curiosity, I ordered my driver to pull over to the side of the road allowing the two trucks to pass us the rest of the way to the base.

The three seemed to have stopped in their tracks when the convoy, being two trucks and a literal light tank passed through it, made Princess Twilight excited with joy and curiosity much as she was when I first met her.

"Good morning princess," I waved from the other side as the trio came beside my vehicle, with Twilight looking like she was going to burst, while Fluttershy seemed to be. Well, shy.

"Good morning Mister Yates! I see you've been busy," Twilight replied back.

"Yeah, I decided that we were going to need food and new pillows since we were going to be here for quite a while, so what brings you three in almost the middle of nowhere?" I asked.

"Well actually we were heading to your base to deliver these to Gold Star," Twilight responded.

"Huh? Really now, well I don't think he'd mind, I can offer you three a ride," I insisted.

"That would be nice! Thanks," answered Twilight.

"No problem, hop on I can take you to Gold Star he's currently in recovery so I'm sure they'll allow visitors, depending on if security hasn't heightened up..."

"What?"

"Nothing, anyways driver let's head back to base, chop chop!" I ordered, as the jeep now started moving again with three additional passengers.

On our way to the base, I asked them about the adventures that I heard about back home, and well to be honest... I never actually believed in any of those things, I sounded like I did but really I didn't, like how did they survive an encounter with a dragon? Or how in the creator's name did they manage to get a fucking sprout of flies to infest Ponyville!

But of course, I never believed the stuff about them, and since the base is about 23 minutes away from Ponyville, I might've as well passed the time listening to the lies that would turn out that it wasn't a lie...

In fact, as I sat in the front the stories of how they stopped what could've been an international incident, ranging from the return of Nightmare Moon all the way to Discord and up until now, of course, Pinkie Pie being Pinkie Pie she summed it almost everything up in a sentence, but of course, I prefer to be specifically in full details rather than being a simple format of adventures, so I paid closely attentive at Twilight explaining about the things that I considered as a myth with backing from Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy despite the amount of things Twilight had said I still don't believe it, but I do have some little belief that it may have been true, but until then I would like to see it for myself.

.
.
.

After the half-hour drive back to base we've finally pulled in on the medical building extension of our base with the help of some of the construction ponies who volunteered or were hired to build it, and yes including our engineers and workers from overseas as well (thanks to the taxpayer money) so far they didn't do any amputations, or sent anyone home yet since the battle with Tirek, but according to what Alex had said to me after that particular battle that we've torn Tirek to shreds to the point of internal exposure of his skin.

Or to simplify, Tirek looked more like an inner muscle than the skin, and the image of that frightens me to think about especially how his face would be covered in flesh and blood.

"This is our stop, give Gold Star my regards since I have a lot of work ahead of me today," I requested.

"I will, thank you Mr. Yates!" Twilight waved happily, as she and her friends trotted away from my sight in entered inside of the medical bay doors, I leaned on my car and grabbed a cigarette from my pocket and lit it with my lighter. I lied about what I said. I just didn't want to enter there and risk Gold Star's Identity.

Because for all I know, I could end up slipping and exposing Gold Star which is something I could never do to my friend, but to say what my government did was foolish to cover his identity knowing that it would be very hard to get that in peoples throats to think that he is an Alicorn.

But, all to say it doesn't surprise me that some things would turn up and rear their ugly head towards us, and to all that happened to this world but as I said.

I am not surprised.

"Lieutenant!" Yelled Colonel Alex walking towards me with a newspaper in the midst of troops making their daily marches across the yards and dirt-filled roads.

"Colonel Alex, what else am I needed in?" I asked.

"Well, nowhere at the moment but... Tell me what I'm reading here!" Alex demanded.

"What? You can't read?"

"Just read!"

"Alright then, let's see what we ha-... No... My god no..."

"Well, Lieutenant? Read it," Alex repeated.

"..."With the successful test on September 3rd of 1003, the government today has announced to the world... Of a new weapon called the Atomic Nuclear Bomb.... And had sent a strong message to the world that if any attacked their soil they would face this powerful weapon and its destructible power..."  Holy hell Colonel! What the hell did you make me read!" I yelled.

"Apparently we're making some changes, to be honest, I'm all for this nuclear bomb," Alex said in his opinion.

"But Colonel! Do you not realize what this BOMB can do!?"

"It can save lives, primarily our men, and prevent wars,"

"All that did is start a new fucking arms race dammit! Those fucking Rodines will no doubt try to copy our bomb!" 

"Either way Lieutenant, I still think it's an improvement with our army, because there won't be any wars to break out as long as this bomb exists in our possession, and I very well doubt the Rodine commies will bother to steal our bomb, just watch and see!" Alex argued.

"..."

"Anyways Lieutenant, I expect the minesweeper report on my desk at 1600 hours, do not be late with it is that understood!" Colonel Alex ordered.

"Yes sir," I said with a glaring salute as he left my sight I pondered on my thoughts with the worry of this new bomb and one of them being.

What's Celestia going to say about this?

"They... Did it. Did they?" Celestia dreaded.

"Yes your Highness, apparently the Americans have certainly advanced in technology and they seem to now possess this new bomb, Fleur couldn't sleep that night because of the sleep terrors she suddenly had! And when I took her to the doctor she was diagnosed with PTSD! PTSD your Highness! And it was just from the explosion!" Fancy Pants reported.

"Dear Faust... I never expected them to actually get this bomb this fast, I expected this in 10 years' time but now... Now I fear that I've been too blind in my judgment for all these years!" 

Luna looked at her sister and looked at Fancy Pants and motioned.

"I will see about Fleur getting treatment, you may be excused."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Fancy Pants acknowledged as he left the room politely with the help and escort from the friendly royal guard present in the room Luna looked at Celestia.

"How long have you doubted the human's Tia?" Luna asked, which sadness filled Celestia turned towards her sister and replied.

"For too long Lulu... For too long... Too late..."

The day was as always, snow.. Lots of snow and Ogav didn't like it, but he loved it.

As he leaned on his BMP-1 that sits parked in front of a café where his crewmen enjoyed their breakfast he rested and had his daily smoke in the knee-deep snow as he continued to hear the daily trots of Severyanian ponies heading for the jobs that pay them, but what made him think of home was the gradual sounds of BTR-90s driving and patrolling around the city square where his unit was stationed in, Ogav wasn't promoted for his action in Equestria but he wasn't demoted either which was good, but he did get a warning citation for his action and was basically given a slap in the back.

At Least he wasn't badly punished though, but he knows that an action such as that in Equestria could've been much worse if he was to try that act again.

A snowflake fell from the sky and landed on his nose which he looked at and swiped off his nose as it made him itch from the cold touch the snowflake gave him, it seemed the snowy weather had started to pick up and it was only a matter of time until a blizzard blows over.

But he didn't mind such a thing, but it reminded him of his adopted daughter-in-law back in Tartarstan, how warm she must be in the comfort of her home being taken care of by his Babushka he thought of her every time he had to be in combat and worries that he wouldn't be able to fulfill his promise to the little girl's mother. However, a pony with a scarf all ran down, and dirt with light pink skin tread in the snow as if she were looking for someone.

She looked at Ogav and trotted towards him with a letter.

"Mister? Are you Mr. Volklav?" Asked a female Unicorn, shivering in the cold weather as the winter snow started picking up.

"Yes?" Ogav replied suspiciously when he was brought a letter with his name...

"From Argendina, it's from Ella Willow," the unicorn said which surprised Ogav but shook his head.

"Ella Willow," Ogav said to himself, as he opened the letter and read it.

"... Where did you get this... When did you get this!" Ogav begged.

"I found it in the wreckage mister. And then I saw a woman crawling out weak and bloodied. I tried to offer help but she insisted that I give it to you. I looked for you in Zebrica and Rodinia, and when I heard your name I came here and found you. I'm sorry for your loss sir..."

Ogav sat down on his light armor tank and looked at the note smoking his cigarette intensely as he now had to experience the letter of a dead woman...

"She's dead isn't she..."

"She died last year, 12th of October in her home... I'm so sorry..."

 Ogav looked and stared, his mind raced at the amount of hatred he became a part of, the consequences of his nation waging its cold war on a country and starting wars, the death of a woman that he had a crush on with hopes of being together again crushed by the swift force of reality and war.

He looked up and found no one... The unicorn disappeared and after a moment he looked at the ground and saw no hoof prints, he got up and fiercely looked around his surroundings. Nothing, it was as if the unicorn never was...

Until he heard a faint but familiar voice... A voice he thought he'd never hear in the midst of the snow that reassured him that.. "She is in a better place...." and he knew that he must've encountered the one ponies call. Harmony, goddess of peace...

But as the snow started to finally pick up at a rapid pace the men finally finished their meal and got inside the BMP, however, one of them spotted Ogav who was staring at the distant nothing in front of him.

"Are you alright sir?" Asked the pilot, who snapped Ogav off his trance and towards the pilot, he frowned but faked his smile while at the same time internally depressed with the news...

"I believe so..." Replied Ogav. "I certainly believe so..."

But clearly, as he climbed on board his vehicle as it moved... He cried in the cold winter abyss as he was saddened by how their daughter would react when he told her the news of her beloved mother's death...
