Jack stood in silence, staring at the mural a moment longer, Sarah's hand still in his. But in his mind, he wasn't just in Harmonfield anymore. He was already thinking about Zurich. About Tokyo. About New York. About Buenos Aires. Places where the pulse of money, innovation, and power didn't wait for headlines—they moved silently, like gravity.

"You have that look again," Sarah said softly, squeezing his hand.

"What look?"

"The one that says the world isn’t big enough for what you're building."

Jack smiled, faint but real. "It isn’t. Not anymore."

Three days later, Emily sat beside Jack on a private jet, a Dragon Corp seal stitched into the leather headrests. Below them, the Draconian border was a memory. They were headed to Geneva for a closed-door World Bank advisory session.

"Why am I really here, Jack?" Emily asked, closing her laptop. "You could have taken any senior exec."

Jack turned to her, leveling a calm gaze. "Because it’s time you saw the full map."

At the summit, security

    The AI’s voice pulsed softly through the cabin.“Collective morale elevated. Purpose detected.”Ryan threw both fists in the air and spun like a malfunctioning satellite. “Purpose equals PROFITS!”Emily swatted him. “Purpose equals impact.”Matilda raised a finger. “Impact equals plushies.”Lena nodded sagely. “Thus, plushies equals healing.”Sarah blinked. “How… did we reach that conclusion?”Ryan jabbed at his chest proudly. “SCIENCE!”Emily groaned into her palms. “That is absolutely not science.”Jackson spread out a new banking analytics holo-sheet. “Based on current media projections? If the pitch lands, merchandising alone could generate anywhere between two hundred to four hundred million credits in the first five years.”Everyone froze.Matilda’s head snapped around so fast she nearly pirouetted. “FOUR HUNDRED MILLION?!”Ryan squealed. “COLLEGE DEBT TERMINATED!”Emily folded her arms. “Merchandising royalties vary. Disney takes 35% to 55% depending on the clause.”Jackson tap

    The cabin dimmed, screens dissolving to black. Jackson exhaled, lowered the stylus, and leaned back like a warrior dropping his sword after victory.Then—Matilda’s tiny clap echoed into a thunderous applause.Ryan spun in mid-air thanks to partial gravity dampening. “WE SURVIVED! WE THRIVED! WE–”He smacked gently into the cabin ceiling.Sarah raised a hand. “Gravity is still a thing. Please respect it.”Ryan nodded upside-down. “As you wish, queen.”Emily massaged her temples, but she was smiling. “The adrenaline crash is real.”Jackson flicked his wrist, saving the masterpiece to a shimmering holo-drive shaped like a tiny dragon. “Okay… done for real.”Jack crossed his arms, half impressed, half exhausted. “That’s a lot of creative energy.”Jackson pointed dramatically. “Trauma alchemy.”The AI chimed helpfully, “Diagnostic: overwhelming creative catharsis detected.”Lena sagely nodded. “Scientifically accurate.”Jack chuckled. “Sure. Let’s call it that.”They settled into semi-circ

    But he didn’t stop at one.Holographic windows multiplied like hungry ideas. Particle effects shimmered in mid-air, glittering against the dim cabin lights. Even the AI dimmed the overhead glow slightly—as if giving the creative chaos a stage.Matilda leaned forward with predatory anticipation. “Are we escalating?”Jackson nodded slowly. “Oh, we’re escalating.”He spun the stylus, digital glyphs trailing like comet tails. The cartoon suddenly zoomed out—revealing the mother asteroid.Ryan gasped. “IT HAS A MOUTH?”Sarah groaned, laughing. “Oh no…”On screen, the colossal asteroid opened jagged, stone-toothed jaws, roaring flames. Cartoon Jack braced himself, Dragon Dagger glowing brighter than ever.Emily slapped her forehead. “This is astrophysical slander.”Lena whispered reverently, “This is justice for all those times space tried to kill us.”Ryan grabbed both sides of his head. “I want posters of this in my room. Maybe a shrine. Maybe—”Matilda smacked him with a pillow before he

    Jackson cracked open a snack. “So. Who’s telling the story of how we didn’t die first?”Ryan shot up. “ME!”Matilda shoved him down. “NO, I AM!”Lena raised a finger. “I nominate Sarah. She stayed calm.”Ryan muttered, “Rigged voting.”Sarah smiled at Jack. “And you?”Jack finally leaned back.“…I’ll listen.”Together—they laughed, they breathed, they lived.And beyond the windows, asteroid dust faded into glittering memory, carried by the quiet of space.Silence settled… soft, grateful.Then a metallic clack echoed.Jackson dragged his DragonTech laptop onto his knees, flipping it open. The device hummed with holographic light, projecting translucent menus into the cabin air.Matilda blinked. “Oh no. What are you doing now?”Jackson cracked his knuckles dramatically. “Immortalizing our trauma. In cartoon form.”Ryan gasped. “Yesss. Emotional damage for entertainment!”Emily groaned. “Please don’t exaggerate too much.”Jackson’s grin turned wicked. “No promises.”Instantly, holographi

    The asteroids shifted and closed in.Their safe corridor narrowed until it was barely wider than the Dragonjet itself.Jack inhaled slowly—too slowly—and angled the nose a fraction of a degree. Not much. Barely perceptible. But the ship responded, gliding through a narrowing gap that looked suicidal to anyone sane.The walls of stone brushed past so close that microscopic dust skittered across the windows like frost.Matilda squeaked, hugging her blanket tighter. “Nope. Nope. Nope!”Ryan was past screaming—his voice cracked hours ago. Now he simply shook violently like a malfunctioning android.The Dragonjet tilted again—threading an impossible needle while chunks of planetary bone ground against each other in the void.BOOOOOM—The explosion behind them rattled the hull, but the debris spiraled harmlessly away—they’d just outraced the collision.Sarah’s voice shook. “Jack, that gap is closing!”“I see it,” Jack whispered.His focus was blade-sharp. Calm. Clinical.“You’re still going

    Space stretched wide around the Dragonjet, silent and serene. Stars glittered across the cosmic canvas like scattered diamonds. The meteor storm behind them faded into a dispersing trail of shimmering dust. For the first time in minutes, the ship eased into quiet.Matilda’s breathing settled. Ryan leaned backward, shaking out his arms like he had just run a marathon with his lungs. Lena pulled her blanket up, eyes heavy.“…From fracture comes shape,” Jack repeated softly.Sarah leaned her head against his shoulder, grounding herself. “And from survival,” she whispered, “comes meaning.”The moment felt sacred. Earned. Deserved.Then—The Dragonjet shook.Not violently. But enough.Every head snapped up.Ryan groaned. “…Tell me that was just space burping.”No one answered.The AI’s voice returned, softer but uneasy:“Warning. Gravitational variance detected. Density reading rising.”Jack straightened, his posture shifting into command instinct. His eyes narrowed.“Sensor overlay. Expand
