Part One: Backstory
"Listen....Greely, you must stay here."

"Do you think I'm unfit to explore?" Liza's face cast a saddened look.

"No...you're the most experienced of us all... That's why you must stay! Protect Jamaa!" Greely's expression changed.

"I-I'll do my best." Liza smiled, and packed for the journey. "You coming, Liz?" Peck called. "Mmmhmm," muttered Liza. "Goodbye, Greely."

Greely woke up in cold sweat. "Wha...Liza?...No!" Then he steadied himself. "No...if they were coming back, they would've by now." It'd been three years since they left....Liza; Peck; Sir Gilbert; Graham; Cosmo. Jamaa had crumbled under the weak protection by Greely, Tavie, and the minor Alphas, and Phantoms now reigned.

The alarm sounded.
