A new voice spoke through the Guardian Interface. It was very alien. It said, This is Battle Command. Welcome Empress Miki Anton … I have awaited your Master Administrator Code for 10,000 years. Interfacing with Master Guardian Control. Total Master Administrative Access Granted. Battle Command activated and fully on line.

I was furiously angry with The Thrnoxians. I thought I knew what to do. I didnt fully understand what I was about to do, nor what the true implications of what the vague feelings in my heart were to manifest.

I held out my hand. Like magic, a star map appeared in the air above. A murmur of awe filled the chamber. It showed the Thrnoxian home world system in red, all the twenty five fallen systems in purple red, and the sixteen systems currently being attacked flashed in an urgent orange.

A strong murmur filled the chamber. I heard voices filled with fear and major awe at what this little girl was doing before them. None had ever seen this sort of thing before.
This was the stuff of all their childrens fairytales.

I said again in a booming little girls voice, Rise dog, and call your planet of whores. I want you in contact with them now! and I slammed the staff to the floor again.

A tremendous explosion sound and blue fire filled the chamber. Even David fell on his face in fear then. All the multitudes were on their face on the floor in their tiers.

I said, None need fear me except this dog and his planet of whores.

David slowly stood … others slowly followed suit and sat deathly silent in their seats, mesmerized mortal fear.

The man in the hood stood, trembling noticeably. A guard came to him and handed him a devise. The man in the hood took the devise and began contacting his home world.

When the link was established, I said in a booming little girls voice, Know you not the penalty on a galactic scale for premeditated murder, oh planet of whores?

The voice on the other end of the com link sounded very insulted and became very rude as he called me a prostitute to the Emperor. He threatened the Imperial House with total obliteration because of my gross insults. The murmur of fear again in the chamber.

I shouted in fury, my little girls voice was so loud it shook the chamber, Behold my Imperial Power oh planet of whores whos mothers sleep with dogs. My judgment for you is death for the premeditated murder of billions.

I raised my hand in soul felt anger and clenched it into a strong fist. There was a huge crack of thunder as the weapon system activated. In the star map above us, the representation of the sun of the home world to the Thrnoxian suddenly flared extremely bright then went suddenly dark. Nothing was left but a rapidly expanding ball of brightness. The communicator in the hooded Ambassadors hand suddenly filled with static as the com channel broke. He was unable to raise them again. The look of a trapped animal was in his eyes when he looked back at me.

A man suddenly appeared in the huge door to the chamber and requested immediate audience with the Empress. He was almost hysterical. He was escorted to the dais.

He bowed formally and said in a shaking voice, My Lady … a most horrible disaster ever seen has happened!

The Ambassador turned and looked fearfully at the man. He whispered very quietly, Ray, whats happened?

Ray was visibly crying and said to all, The Thrnoxian home system sun has just exploded and totally destroyed the entire system. None survived and all is dust now.

The roar that burst from the multitudes in council was horrendous. All feared me at this point. I had some kind of power never before witnessed by anyone in the known universe. A feeling of dread started to grow in me as I started to calm down from my rage. I didnt yet quite understand what the man was actually telling me I had done.

Still extremely angry, I pointed to the Ambassador and said in my booming little girls voice, Contact all of your remaining forces and peoples. Tell them to fear me and my wrath. Your peoples are in direct violation of a sworn peace treaty of 900 years ago. I shall exact revenge upon you for all those you slaughtered in your arrogant blind path of bloodshed and death.!

At this, I slammed the staff to the floor in anger directly in front of the Ambassador. He was thrown from his feet and landed twelve feet beyond by the force of the boom and the shower of blue sparks. He and his entourage sprawled out on the floor and slid another ten feet.

I stood and shouted, Flee from me … Hide if you can! Know this known universe, my home world was devastated by war! There shall no longer be war in my universe! It is now punishable by immediate annihilation!

The silence was only broken by the Ambassador and his entourage running as fast as they could to leave. The huge door boomed closed. Silence filled the chamber. I took my seat.

The little man with the squeaky voice came forward and bowed at the waist. He was formally introduced as the Head Imperial Law Arbiter by David. I looked at this man with fury in my eyes. He knew very well I hated him with every fiber of my being. He was deathly afraid.

He began fearfully in a very squeaky shaky voice, My Lady, with all due respect and courtesy … a Royal Pet, under Imperial Galactic Law, does not have the authority to totally destroy a star system. No one knows how this can be done nor could we have expected to ever see such a thing. This must be brought before the Imperial Law Council and voted on by them. This is most outrageous. No person should have this kind of power, much less a Pet.

I replied in my booming little girl voice, Little man … know this too, I am not only an Imperial Royal Pet, I also hold the unimpeachable position of Empress of the Known Universe as Explored by Man, second only in position and power and authority to Thomas Anton the First. I, Emperess Amy Michelle Anton, DO HAVE THE POWER AND AUTHORITY AND WILL EXERCISE IT AS I SEE FIT! Not as a backstabbing liar that should be sex reassigned involuntarily and assigned to the dogs tells me to do. Is that understood?

Murmurs run round the chamber. I had actually openly insulted the Arbiter in open forum. None expected me to truly be the Empress. They expected me to be a little confused girl lost among adults and easily swayed. The little man was visibly trembling in fear. All in the chamber were in extreme fear and awe at the seemingly magical power I possessed. Such power from the finger tips was only known in myth and childrens stories. They also expected me to be extremely more baby and extremely less adult.

The little man has again soiled and peed himself. I point and say, Be gone little man, and know you are no longer my Head Imperial Law Arbiter. I will appoint someone else better able to handle this position. Guards, Escort this man from the Palace and insure that on the pain of death he never returns.

The Guards bow formally and say, Yes, My Lady.

They escort the soiled and disgraced man from the Palace amid many murmurs from the multitudes. None had seen the Imperial Ruling Authority exercised in this manner before. I was in control and knew it. I would be Emperess, none would tell me how.

I say, My new Imperial Law Arbiter shall be, according to achievement and valor. The Young man who was that imbeciles secretary. He hence forth has the rights, responsibilities, and power pertaining there to. I also expect the others in the law office to totally support this man. To train him to properly perform his duties. Realize, any screw-up on his part, is recognized as poor foresight and training on theirs. They will be punished first. Is this clear to all?

A multitude of voices speak, It is so in accordance with Imperial Universal Law, My Lady

All stand, bow or curtsy, then sit silently.

I look at the star field floating in the air above me. The place where the Thrnoxian home system used to be is now a slowly expanding sphere of glowing hot gasses and dust. The systems that were blinking orange had stopped blinking. The ones represented in purple red were starting to change color. I knew the Thrnoxians had discovered the wrath of a little girl named Miki, who hated war with all her might.

I begin to understand what I had done in my blind anger. I feel terrible remorse. I had destroyed an entire star system. Not just combatants. Men, women, children … several entire biospheres complete with population. Billions of lives, all gone in a flash of anger. I hurt in my soul.

I wave my hand, the representation of the star systems vanishes. A loud murmur of awe fills the chamber.

There is major pandemonium in the chambers. I say nothing … I allow them to come to the understanding, they no longer have the right or the ability to wage intergalactic war against each other without retribution. David is looking at me in total awe … he says nothing for a long time.

I want Nana … I want to be baby … I am truly sick in my soul at what I had just done. I realize its not yet time … have more lessons to teach today.

I stand, I have the staff of Imperial Office still in my hand. I speak softly this time and say, Peoples of the Known Universe as Explored by Man, I am Emperess. I have absolute authority second only to Thomas Anton the first who is the Emperor. I decree on this day that interplanetary war is forbidden to you. I do not care how you run your prospective worlds, nor your current empires. If the cry of persecution and death begins on an interplanetary scale and becomes known to me, I will utterly obliterate the aggressor. If there be those among you who are foolish enough to believe you can attack or kill Thomas or myself … Behold!

I point my finger at a large open space … a huge blue white flash and a rumble like many thunders … the entire room shakes. A new sun is born where the Thrnoxian system used to be. There is silence in the chamber.
The multitudes begin receiving communications from their individual star systems. A miracle has happened. A new sun was born where the Thrnoxian system sun used to burn. Massive pandemonium as this knowledge becomes known to the masses of people in the chamber.

I sit back … I am silent … I watch the impact I have on the Universe. I grieve for all the lost souls I had destroyed. I truly had no idea I was capable of this in anyway.

When order finally returns to the chamber I look at David and say, Imperial Grand Vizier, what is the next grave business that comes before me on this day? he turns with a sharp precise heel click. He approaches with the next order of business for the Universe.

I am sick within my soul. I cannot live with the knowledge of what I have done.

This day is finally over. I am being escorted back to my room. My head hurts and I am truly tired in a way I had not been before. I am ill. I am sick in my soul at what I have done.

I finally enter my room. Nana is there waiting eagerly for me to return. She runs to me and picks me up and hugs and kisses me tenderly. She exclaims, Miki baby I missed you so much!

She knows something is badly wrong. I am not my usual happy self.

Nana asks, Miki baby, whats wrong?

I look at Nana for a second, I wrap my arms around her neck and cry hysterically. My heart breaks in grief for the lives I have destroyed.

Nana holds me tenderly. She is totally lost as to what to do. She has never seen me in this condition before and is totally unable to console me with anything she tries. She takes a small object from her pocket. She touches my collar with it, My mind relaxes and I sleep. I am released from my soul deep grief and find peace in the soft darkness of sleep.
