"Hey mom, can you tell us a bed time story?" The young ram asked. His mother, who was tucking his older brother Phobos to bed, looked up at Aries direction and smiled warmly.

"Of course, But let me tuck in you and your brothers in first."And with that,she was done tucking Phobos, and was heading to Aries. After being tucked in, he watched as she checked on his adopted brother Scorpio.

"Is your stinger cap on ?" Deimos asked carefully holding Scorpio's stinger, which needed to be capped so that he wouldn't sting himself or others. "Yes mom". Scorpio said as he was being carried by Deimos to his bed.

Once everyone was tucked in, Deimos went to a small bookshelf,which was for the boys ." which story do you like to hear tonight Aries?" Not even a second had passed and Aries had already decided. "The Story of King Cepheus of Ethiopia".

"Didn't we heard that one on your last turn?" Phobos called out. "And the time after that?" Scorpio also pointed out. Aries smiled."Well that's my favorite one, has so much glory in it, right mama?"

Deimos,with book in hand, smiled as she sat down on a chair in the middle of the room. "That's correct Aries, stories are for all from the thought of real facts or imaiginated opinions." The boys smiled at their mother's advice, knowing that despite it being in opinion, they knew it was a fact at heart.

Deimos opened the book and begin to read:

"Before the Solar was created to coexist, Their was only one kingdom only, and that was Ethiopia". "It was a place full of peace, everyone fully trusted upon each other"." And they had a king named Cepheus."

Aries had somewhat memorized the story, and yet still feel like this is the first time he heard it.

"Cepheus was a good king, he protected his Kingdom from anything bad". "And as any king he had a Queen; Cassiopeia, and together they had a daughter who was named Andromeda".

Phobos tensed a little, he knew, they were heading to the "big" part of the story.

"However the citizens were slowly losing trust, due to others questioning the other's excestince, class,and race, it started with insults....then arguments....then fights. "And since Ethiopia was made by love, it slowly started dying from hate."

Scorpio watched in silence as his mother continued the story.

"Soon plants started to die, So did the animals, food was scarce, sickness came, But no one noticed, they fought, blaming the other citizens. "Only the royalty noticed, but they knew they wouldn't be able to stop the commotion."

"And once the citizens did saw what was happening to Ethiopia...it was too late". "Ethiopia that was so beautiful was nothing but a corpse of a biosphere"." only the people and the royalty remained".

"Cepheus had enough of the fighting and demanded them all to reconcile, Ethiopia was slowly decaying that preety soon, they all perish". "The citizens, finally noticing their mistakes, apologized to each other of their wrong doing, and agreed to remain as one".

"That's when something remarkable happened". A voice was heard behind Deimos. The boys, including Deimos was startled at the sudden interuption of someone who had entered the room, without them knowing. Mars.

"Yes, Ethiopia did split due to the hate in the world,but surprising to the royalty and the citizens, the pieces of Ethiopia formed into more planets, for more,for all."

"and Cepheus decided to allow anyone to live on the 8 children of Ethiopia, because he knew that Ethiopia had forgive the people for their wrongdoing".

Mars approached Deimos, sat next to her and gave her a warm smile. Deimos, smiled back. "And when the solar was completed, the people from all 8 planets were at peace once more." Deimos finished, closing the book.

The three boys clapped softly in amazement. "That was cool". Phobos spoked out. Mars chuckled." Well I was heading to your room to say good night when I heard your mother telling my favorite story so...i went along".

Deimos smiled and got up the chair. "Well it's time for you boys to go to bed". Aries watched as his parents kissed him and his brothers goodnight.

"Sleep tight boys". Mars said closing the door. as the door closed,Aries looked around the room, Phobos was falling asleep along with Scorpio, With a smile Aries snuggled himself in the bed a looked at the ceiling. With heavy eyes, he drifted to sleep.

*10 years later*

"Aries, wake up". A voice called out of nowhere, waking him up. Dazed and dry, Aries opened up his blurry, brown eyes to see bright light everywhere, and It took him a moment to realize he was in his room.

He turned his head to the voice to his right to see Scorpio on the other side of the bed. "Hey Scorpio". Scorpio, who was so little as a kid, now looked around his height or even slightly higher then him now.

Getting up, Aries stood and stretched, making sure the tiredness didn't reached him anywhere. He turned around and headed toward a window to look outside to see the other side of the kingdom were the village was decorated with color, sound and small specks of people.

"Well today is the day huh?" Aries smiled looking at Scorpio, who was staring back. "C'mon get dressed, Dad wants to have all of us at the dining room".

"Ok I'll be there soon".He said as he stretched more and head to his wardrobe to find something proper to wear.

*------------*

Walking to the dining room, Aries and Scorpio walked in silence for a while. Still adjusting, Aries turned to look near the windows, which the sun was above ground now and slowly rising up.

"Looks like we're going to be having clear skies today, excited?" Aries said turning to Scorpio, Who was silent throughout the walk."You ok buddy?" Aries asked in concern.

"To be honest ... I don't know about this." Scorpio replied." I don't like it when people stare at me.. and not able to know what there thinking of seeing a Scorpion at their festival you know."

Aries looked at Scorpio with sympathy... He knew that Scorpio had every right to be nervous.

As they were both been told by their parents:

("A Scorpion is the lowest race in the Solar system, they were used as slaves to the higher race and were mistreated terribly"." And a few other planets still used them to this day.")

Putting a hand on Scorpio's shoulder, Aries looked at his brother with an a encouraging smile. " It's going to be ok."If you feel nervous, then you can stay right next to me or Phobos ok?"

Scorpio stayed silent for a moment smiled a little. "You do know I'm not a kid anymore, but I appreciate your advice Aries, thanks". " No problem Scorps." Aries said ruffling Scorpio's hair.

As they joked they finally headed to the dining room, and opening the door they found the rest of their family sitting down to breakfast.

"Morning Aries ." Mars replied first as he greeted his son with a warm smile. "Morning dad, mom, Phobos". Aries replied as he sat down next to his mother. "Good morning sweetheart, how was your sleep?"

"Very good." Aries said as a maid offered him his breakfast and took her leave.

Mars, who was waiting for all his sons to wake, got up to make a announcement. "Can I please get your attention sons?" he said, waiting for them to look at him, as all eyes were on him and the room quiet, Mars began.

"As you know this festival is one of a very important reminder of our history. It's to remind us of how the alliance of the other planets worked to bring our running system to our home and beyond the 8 planets. without it we would all have died or fought in hell many years ago."

The boys listened to their fathers speech, since they were little they memorized the entire speech, however it was much more different now.

"But since your all getting older it will also be the first ceremony of your heir to my throne, therefore your first mission will to communicate with our fellowing neighbors: The kingdom of planet #2's ruler:

Venus".

The 3 boys stopped eating and stared in surprise and deep shock . Venus was the queen of Planet #2, despite her being, what rumors say ('most gorgeous being in the System') she's a real pain to meet, mostly because she's very rude to many.

"I know what you're thinking, Venus is not a very pretty flower." Mars said. "In fact she's more of a weed." Mars said, adding a fact.

"But I assure you, The first part in any communication, is to accept many by offer chances to make bonds, even the bitchy ones."

"Wrong my dear." Deimos spoked out. "You only invited her over because you lost an argument against her, so you allowed her to come over to not only enjoy the festival, but to prove her wrong." The boys turned to their dad, who was making a very "obvious" face. "That too, but mostly to show our sons, on how to know our fellow neighbors."

The was a small moment of silence before Mars continued. "But the main reason is that even though one will obtain my throne and continue to rule, but to let you know is that I wouldn't care who will take it, I see you all as an equal, as my sons."

Aries listened to his father's words in deep awe. Whenever he spoked out a speech or a lecture, he listened with inspiration and mesmerization. It always left him in peace and a clear mind, Allowing him to learn a new thing.

"That is all I want to say, you may continue your breakfast." Says Mars, finally finished getting the news out. The boys, were still confused and nervous about the sudden news, and still had a lot of questions but decided to wait until later.

The family continued eating their breakfast, having conversations with each other of the previous festivals, and the now.

*-----------*

Miles away from the system, the universe was in it's greatest balance as the stars and astroids were showing the beauty of the universe, they flew in different areas to nowhere, traveling to anywhere, but the stars and rocks were not the only things that were traveling.

Besides the stars and astroids, another thing was traveling, but for a reason. And that was a large ship, going by. Their was 13 people on board, and they were trying to find something, or someone.

As they continued, they were now closer to The milky way: the entrance to the system. "This is the place, this is where they're at sir". one spoked out. The leader, who was the eldest of the group, only looked at the milky way gate.

"Go inside the galaxy, and 8 of you go in each planet and find them." he spoked. The other members nodded and went out the room, leaving the eldest behind to wait.

He looked at the galaxy in silence, knowing he and the rest worked hard to find had finally found them.

" I sense them...I feel it." he said to himself, still looking at the galaxy, as his crew left the ship and entered.
