The girl led an engineering division on Planet Akkadia before she was appointed the crown princess and her skills in dealing with machines were quite good.
"How's the progress?" Kaoshin asked as he approached Arreya who was supervising two robots in repairing some damaged piping.
The girl shook her head. "Bad. It will take a long time for it to fully recover, and it won't be one hundred percent either."
"Hmm ..." Kaoshin nodded. He raised his face and stared at the black sky decorated with millions of galaxies comprised of hundreds of billions of stars. "Did you see the blue planet over there?"
Arreya's eyes followed the direction Kaoshin pointed to and nodded. "The blue planet looks very beautiful. Seems like they have a lot of water. There is no water here."
"Right. Looking at it from the surface, about 70 percent of the planet's surface is covered with water. The people living there are very fortunate. Luckily we carry a complete support system in this capsule. We can produce water and grow our own plants." Kaoshin observed the planet with great interest. "But it would be interesting if we can see what plants grow on the blue planet."
Arreya knew that Kaoshin loved plants. The man had always wanted to be a botanist. Still, in the end, he chose to join the military to protect Arreya when she was appointed the crown princess.
"We can go down there and find out," Arreya said with a smile.
"I will first investigate the planet to ensure it is safe before taking you there. I will not risk your safety. Do you remember how their satellites attacked our capsule?" Kaoshin asked.
Arreya nodded. "Of course, I do. Our robots are still repairing the damages. But I think what they did is quite reasonable. They certainly considered us suspicious and unauthorized visitors. We need to contact them properly."
Kaoshin's face grew dark at Arreya's suggestion. How would he contact the blue planet? There were only two of them. Of course, their existence and their intention to establish contact would be highly suspected.
"We don't need to worry about such things right now. It is better to focus ourselves on fixing our capsule and building systems for our survival," he said. "You look tired. Take a break. I've prepared food for us."
Arreya looked up and smiled at Kaoshin's request. The man took out a small box from his pocket and forked out 5 pills from it. He handed four to Arreya.
"Er ... that's a lot. I only need two." Arreya took two pills and pushed Kaoshin's hand back, so the man would take the rest. "You need food more than me. Look, my body is smaller than yours."
Kaoshin smiled faintly and finally nodded. He took the remaining three pills in his hand and put the box back into his pocket.
They sat down, resting on two folding chairs provided by a worker robot for them. They had been stranded on the Moon for several days yet had had not much time to explore the area around them. But based on the capsule's radar observations, there was no other living creature on Moon.
They didn't need to worry about being attacked by strangers. That was why they could focus on repairing their capsule and building system to survive in the new place. For several days, they did not talk about what caused them to be stranded in a cargo capsule in space.
Arreya still had not been able to obtain her memory. While Kaoshin couldn't get satisfactory results from his investigation from their capsule navigation logbook. It was all a big mystery.

"Princess Arreya ..." The girl flinched awake with tears welling up in her eyes. She didn't realize that she cried in her sleep. Quickly she rubbed her eyes then turned to the computer screen to her left.
"General Kaoshin Stardust!" Arreya cried in surprise when she saw the face of the young man she deeply missed suddenly appeared on the computer screen. "General Kaoshin Stardust ... where are you?"
"I recorded this message before I went to Earth. If I don't come back, I know you will plan to come and search for me using this ship."
Arreya shook her head dejectedly. That was not Kaoshin ... It's just a recorded message that he left behind.
"Princess Arreya, please reconsider your decision to go to Earth. The situation is still mysterious. I set this ship in automatic control back to the Moon. I'm sorry."
"No way! Kaoshin, you're bad ...!" Arreya shouted while covering her face with both hands. "You don't know how lonely I was there. You have left me for so many years ... There was no one I could talk to besides the computers."
Frantically, she turned off the automatic control and then tried to control the ship herself. While she was asleep, the ship had switched on the automatic control and was heading back to Moon.
'Ugh …' Now Arreya was forced to drive the ship by herself and observe every coordinate and direction she could take so she could continue to Earth as originally planned.
"General Kaoshin, you are wrong if you think I will be okay living on the Moon alone ..."
The ship was small but it was equipped with warp technology. Within a few hours, it managed to cross the Earth's atmosphere. Arreya turned on a protective shield that will protect her ship from friction with the atmosphere. It also moved in stealth mode so no radars on the earth's surface or satellites would be able to detect its presence.
The small ship glided quickly and landed in a dense forest. The impact was quite heavy and so the ship shook violently for several minutes. Arreya screamed in panic and finally lose consciousness.
***
Arreya woke up and touched her forehead, which was slightly injured from the impact during the landing.
'Where am I?' she asked herself nervously. Arreya looked in puzzlement at the buttons and switches in the control panel around her. With caution, she pressed a rather large button.
BEEEP....
The computer screen to her left suddenly turned on and the face of the handsome young man appeared which immediately made her stunned. The silver-haired young man with a pair of sparkling blue-green eyes with solemn expression was talking calmly. His tone was soft but firm. Arreya immediately felt he was so familiar.
"I recorded this message before I went to Earth. If I don't come back, I know you will plan to come and search for me using this ship."
Arreya shook her head while patting her forehead.
"Who is this man? Who is this Princess Arreya he mentioned just now?"
She had a feeling that Arreya was her own name, but she couldn't remember anything else.
"Princess Arreya, please reconsider your decision to go to Earth. The situation is still mysterious. I set this ship in automatic control back to the Moon. I'm sorry."
Arreya was stunned. Now she was absolutely sure she was the one called Princess Arreya. She panicked because her memory about herself was blank. She checked all the items on the ship to get a clue. She found a bag containing objects bearing the names Princess Arreya and General Kaoshin Stardust.
Was the man on the screen Kaoshin Stardust? Who is he?
"Ah ... I ... I have to find that person. He must know who I am." Still feeling dizzy, Arreya changed to a more practical outfit and then stepped out of the ship. "I'm on now on Earth ... but where are you?"
She quickly realized that the earth's gravity is so much heavier than the moon's. And the oxygen was richer than what she expected! It took her a few minutes to adjust to her surroundings after she took off her protective gear and inhaled a deep breath.
Years later, Arreya would still remember the day she landed on earth was 15 July 2038.
