Ascendancy

"What the hell just happened?!"

As Dream and Tersa hung around outside the planet, there was a ship that suddenly sped toward them. Out came a panicking Melody. Behind her in the ship was their mother.

"Hi mom!"

Dream waved like a child when he saw his mother, ignoring Melody's shock. She waved back, although a bit absentmindedly.

Seeing Dream's mother, Tersa became a bit curious, looking at Shannon with wide eyes. At the same time, Melody poked at Dream.

"What did you do?! Since when do you merge planets just because?!"

"I didn't do it just because. I did it because I want to take Earth along with me. Now you can see mom and dad whenever you want."

"That's true, but at least make some preparations first! You literally just tore the planet apart! People are going crazy! Besides, you left some people behind."

"Left people? Oh!"

Suddenly, Dream remembered something.

Earth had advanced to create megastructures and navigate space. How could they have not colonized other planets like Mars?
