After sending a message with his coordinates and cell number to Lunaria, Erich knew it was only a matter of time before an elite team of Banshees freed him. Thus, he was exceptionally smug and confident over the next three days as he conversed with Sinaria.

Who was currently sitting in his room, while Erich lied down on his bed. She could not understand what had come over the man over the past few days, but she did not like it. Thus, she had no problem scolding him for his behavior. 

"What has come over you? Why are you so relaxed? Have you accepted your fate as a prisoner? You do realize, if you do not comply with us, you will spend the rest of your life in this prison colony, right?" 

But Erich was not dismayed in the slightest upon hearing this news, instead he tossed a casual glance to the exotic beauty before voicing his thoughts aloud in a smug voice. 

"That's what you think..."

This was the kind of comments she had been receiving the past few days whenever she tried to apply pressure to her prisoner. Sinaria was beginning to doubt her abilities as an interrogator. Most prisoners in Erich's situation would have broken by now. And accepted any plea deal to escape this prison. Yet Erich seemed to be enjoying his time, almost as if he were on vacation. 

Such a thing confused Sinaria, who could not help but vent her frustration to the man responsible for it. 

"My bosses are growing impatient, Erich. If you do not agree to our demands soon, they will begin to consider alternative options. I can't keep you safe from them for much longer. They are even talking about injecting you with a potentially lethal dose of truth serum. I don't want to see you get hurt because of your own stubbornness. Please give me something?"

Erich gazed upon the Dark Elven beauty with a complicated look in his silver eyes. He could tell by the look on the woman's face that she wasn't simply bullshitting him like most interrogators would. She was genuinely concerned for his safety.

And just when he was about to say something, the sound of a massive explosion occurred, which was followed by the sirens of the facility going off, as well as a group of blast shields which covered the windows and doors of every cell, essentially locking every prisoner inside. 

Erich simply smirked while Sinaria was freaking out, before speaking his mind. 

"They are finally here..."

Sinaria looked over at Erich, and the smug look on his face, before questioning what he meant by that. 

"No! That's impossible! There is no way they could have found out your location! How, how did you do this?" 

Erich simply smirked once more and remained silent as he sat up from his bed. Shockingly, in the next moment, the blast shields around the door and windows of his cell removed themselves, and the alarm turned itself off.

The sight of which was simply stunning to Sinaria, who had no idea how Erich had accomplished such a thing, especially without access to a terminal. 

"How is this possible? What did you do?" 

Erich stood up and approached Sinaria, who he towered above. He then looked her straight in the eyes before telling her the truth. 

"From my first day in this prison, I had already sliced into your security system. At first, my plan was to coerce you into helping me escape, since I have no way of taking on the elite forces within your shuttle bay. But seeing as how you have refused thus far to entertain my advances. I'm afraid I grew rather impatient. And instead, snuck into your comms relay and sent a message to the Alfheim Dominion. By now several hundred, if not several thousand Banshees have infiltrated the facility, and are headed directly for my door. 

Undoubtedly, Lunaria is extremely pissed off that you managed to keep her boy-toy away from her for so long, and I have no doubt that she will kill everyone in this facility to vent her wrath, including the other prisoners. So if you want to live, I suggest you make a choice where your loyalties lie. Especially since I know you have begun to develop feelings for me, despite your refusal to admit them. 

Will you die with the rest of your people, or will you defect with me to the Alfheim Dominion? At the very least, if you choose the latter, I can promise you a life of peace and luxury. What will it be?" 

It took Sinaria several moments to process the words that Erich had just said, the only thought on her mind was the fact that Erich had mentioned he was involved in an intimate relationship with Lunaria. 

"You... And the Alfheim Empress?"

However, before Erich could answer her, the door was blasted open to reveal the figures of several Alfheim women clad in advanced armor, while holding high-tech weapons. With a smirk on his face, Erich gave Sinaria one last chance. 

"Times up Sinaria... Choose...."

Unfortunately, Erich did not have enough time to fully develop his relationship with Sinaria, and thus, she chose poorly. 

"I die with my comrades. Glory to the federation!" 

Erich simply sighed and shook his head, before knocking the woman unconscious with a single punch. After she had turned her attention away from him in order to face the intruders. As for Erich, he picked her unconscious body up and began to carry it out of the cell. When the banshees saw him, he was quick to confirm that Sinaria was not a hostile.

"This one's with me...." 

The banshees did not even bother refusing Erich, they simply escorted him through the halls and towards their ship, we they gave him his own quarters. As for Sinaria she was locked in the brig, where she would wake up to realize her situation shortly thereafter.

The rest of the Banshees did exactly as Erich had said they would and wiped out all life other than their own on the asteroid. They then fled from the borders of the Svartalfheim Federation, and back to the safety of Alfheim space, where they would land on the homeworld of the Light Elves.

After all, both Lunaria and Celestia had demanded that Erich be brought back to them for a proper medical examination. But this was just the cover they used to see their lover. Once Erich was properly checked to see if he had any injuries, Lunaria sent a message to the GSE, informing Emrys that his protégé was alive, and well.

After speaking with Lunaria, who just so happened to mention Erich's new prisoner, Emrys hung up on the woman to reveal Mirage sitting across from his desk. The veteran agent has a smug smile on her pretty face, as she said the words she had been dying to speak for some time now. 

"What did I say? Erich is fine, and he just so happens to have made a new lady friend on the journey. I told you so!" 

Despite her taunting words, Emrys was in a better mood than he had been in for months, and thus he did not get angry at Mirage for her words. Instead, he sighed heavily, and actually admitted that she was right all along, something that shocked the woman. 

"I admit that I may have overreacted. As long as Erich is fine and well, I really don't care where he decides to stick his dick while in prison." 

These words caused Mirage to nearly choke on the junk food she was snacking on. After all, there were plenty of other ways those words could be misconstrued, especially outside the borders of the Germanic Star-Empire. But she ultimately did not decide to spoil her boss's mood. Instead, she asked a far more important question. 

"So.... What now?" 

Emrys gazed out the window of his office, that displayed the bustling world of Germania, where he then spoke his thoughts on the matter. 

"Now that Erich is back safe and sound, and with his memories intact, I will have him point out who betrayed us. Once we know the traitors' identity, I believe an execution is in order."
