Planet Nexyx -Capital city Vesper
In the midst of a grand hall that was clearly hundreds of times larger than any ballroom should ever be; an illusory portal opened up. Out came a massive dragon with dark opal scales glistening among the billions of lite crystals. The dragon had fiery red wings and electric green eyes that glowed mysteriously. They were deep and enchanted, making one believe they could see anything. This was Astraea's true form in all her glory. She was slightly smaller then both her parents but bigger then most of her siblings. Then again she was still very much a growing adolescent dragon. Although she was over 1,000years old, if counted in human years she would be at most 18 years old. Still in her youthful and rebellious stage.
Astraea looked around at the empty hall and signed in weariness. When would she be able to fill this hall with much needed laughter and music. Although she realizes by placing a bunch of random people on the planet won't fill the void of her lost family members; at least it won't be so damn quiet. There is nothing more miserable for any social creature than to be left in silence for too long of a time; no matter how introverted they may be. That social interaction fills a void that most may not realize they need until it's too late.
Without realizing it, Astraea found herself in the DNA cryogenics lab. It was a new concept that the dragons had just started to develop before she was even born. The DNA of every dragon ever born on the planet was systematically entered into the vault for safe keeping. Some were sliced, creating super soldiers. Who would think that today, Astraea would use those exact DNA to help reproduce the population. Luckily there was enough DNA of each dragon to do what she needed.
Thankfully next to the lab was the incubator room which was full of unfertilized dragon eggs. With just a bit of DNA from another set of parents those eggs would be ready in less than 90 days. She selected and sorted out 50 pairs of DNA and unfertilized eggs to be used for when the new arrivals came.

Back on planet Aerox, the pretty vampire Chelsea walked through the door of her 4 store mainson that was hidden from prying eyes. She was looking at her magical smart watch that simultaneously contacted her clan members. Chelsea was the fourth eldest of her clan with two older sisters and a younger brother. She, being the least busy out of her siblings, took charge of looking after her other cousins' siblings.
Eons ago when they still ran amok, they were known as the Gheata Clan because their entire lineage had the Ice power. Unfortunately, after a clash with numerous other clans; only 7 of the siblings survived living in seclusion until this very day.
"'m already here, 4th sister." A tall young man with piercing violet eyes. He had broad shoulders and a lean waist. He was the type to look slim in clothing but heaven defying once those were taking off. Bansea, the eldest son in their clan, wore a tired smile as he sat rigidly on the couch.
"I met a dragon today…She looks similar to the one who serves the king. I'm sure they are related somehow." Chelsea spoke enthusiastically. "But that's not why I called you back, let's wait for the others."
Chelsea beamed as she sat on a single seat, her eyes burning holes through the front door. It didn't take too long for the rest of her siblings to fine their way home. All 7 sat around the living room in anticipation. Well some were anticipating good fortune while others were bored waiting to listen to some gossip .
"I'll turn it into a short story. I believe I found a way to safely get off this planet and migrate to another. However, going there we would have to help repopulate their planet. Which isn't so bad considering how many offspring a vampire could potentially have." Chelsea announced. Her expression was neutral as she spoke.
The eldest Arusea furrowed her brows, her expression clearly reflected a skepticism. "In that case, give us the long version."
"Hn." Chelsea smiled sheepishly as she explained how she met Astraea and the conversation that transpired. " Nothing is set in stone yet. She wants to meet you all and once we all agree, we will be able to move forward then. "
"That… that sounds too good to be true?". Tansea, the youngest, spoke out quizzically.
"It does but that is mainly because she is desperate. I assume a great catastrophe happens, killing nearly the entire community of dragons. You should have seen her face as she spoke. Her eyes were hollow in regret and despair but there was also a hint of killing intent. Clearly she knows who, just not to wear. Hince the desperation of rebuilding so suddenly instead of gradually." Chelsea spoke logically. " Anyways, for some reason I believe this is exactly what I need. Who knows, once we leave we may find our mates, even if we don't at least we will have children."
"Your optimism is at an all time high, Chelsy." Demmisea, the 5th brother, laughed hard.
With a cocked eyebrow Hepsea, the 6th sister huffed as she leaned her cheek on her palm. Her violet eyes were dreamy and distant as she thought of the future. "I'm in. I want to meet her. I at least want to know what her planet looks like."
" I agree." Bansea agreed. "When will we meet with her?"
"Later on tonight. I told her I would take her to the slave market."
"Good… good. I'll go back to my bags." Hepsea hopped up enthusiastically. "Wait, will we be able to take our slaves as well or will we leave them here?"
"I will live it up to you guys." Arusea announced. She stood and slowly walked towards the second floor.
One by one the siblings left the living room, either backing their bags or rearranging their life. Chelsea for certain, hastily backed everything she owned in a spatial necklace. The spatial necklace has a storage space of nearly 15 acres, more than enough space for a century old thing. Thankfully, she wasn't the only one doing the same; however unlike the others she didnt have a personal life. Noone to say goodbye to, no one to miss. If one thought about it that way; then it was truly pathetic.
