"Welcome back to tonight's MMM Show," Malgath said towards the audience and crowed before he continued, "We are joined by Xer-verse influencer extroudanare, Eri. Hot movie and holoshow actress, and I don't just mean hot in looks, Kasumi and once again, the Diva pair who keep popping up on the show and who we are always happy to welcome, Divas Lorelie and Rowena."
"Influence extroudanare?" Eri asked in surprise.
"Hot in looks?" I'm not sure your wife will approve of such comments.
"Keep popping up?" Rowena asked before adding, "Kasumi is correct, Ulesse is definitely going to have words for you later."
💫💫💫
In Malgath's large mansion on Solarian Alpha, Ulesse frowned when she heard Malgath's comment about Kasumi before saying, "He dares to flirt with anyone other than his princess wife?"
After saying that, she accessed her uni-band before sending a message with an evil smirk, before saying "hmph".
💫💫💫
"It was an introduction, just an introduction," Malgath said defensively.
"Your wife, Princess Ulesse, doesn't seem to think so," Rowena suddenly said with her signature smirk while looking at her uniband and reading a message she just received.
"What do you mean?" Malgath asked with obvious concern.
"I just received a message from her saying," Rowena replied before reading allowed, "Rowena, please inform that husband of mine that since he finds Kasumi so 'hot', he can enjoy her performances alone on the sofa tonight, where he will be sleeping."
"Ugh," Malgath groaned as the audience burst into raucous laughter, and the four female guests all chuckled at his misfortune.
After the audience finally calmed down, Lorelie asked while still wearing an amused smile, "So, why don't we leave Malgath to think of a way to earn his wife's forgiveness, while Miss Kasumi explains why she thinks it is so surprising that my boyfriend gave me such a gift."
"Please, Diva Lorelie, of all the people present, you least of all need to address me as Miss. Not only are you the hottest celebrity in the universe currently, but you're Rowena's friend, which makes you my friend," Kasumi replied.
"Very well, Kasumi, please elaborate," Lorelie said with a kind smile.
"Well, as someone who has had a string of failed and bad relationships, I can honestly tell you that finding a man who is willing to give you something so valuable when you have only been dating a week is rare.
Your boyfriend has given you a completely new type of tech never before seen in the known universe. I can't even comprehend what he could have earned if he had sold the design to a tech company."
"I see what you mean, but I am honestly not that surprised by his actions, after all, this is not the first amazing gift he has given me, not to mention he gifted something to Rowena also," Lorelie replied.
"Your boyfriend gifted something to Rowena? Is he trying to woo a second Diva besides you?" Malgath suddenly asked with interest.
"I would focus on trying to think up a way to get Ulesse to forgive you rather than asking foolish questions, Malgath", Rowena replied with a slightly raised eyebrow, making the audience laugh again.
"To answer Malgath's foolish question, no, he didn't do that to woo Rowena; he did it because Tephe wanted a gift and because she felt left out of the fun. Rowena also asked for one." Lorelie explained.
"AH!" Tephe suddenly cried out, which everyone in the studio audience and watching on the universal subspace network heard before they heard her say to Adam.
"I need a new gift, Adam, the one you originally planned to give me is no longer suitable."
"Hmm, I guess that makes sense," Everyone heard a male voice say as they watched Lorelie and Rowena looking off to the side.
"Did you have anything in mind, or would you like me to find something appropriate again?" The male voice asked.
"You find something appropriate, your gifts are always amazing, I mean, you gave Lorelie the ability to change her outfit on stage, Stacey a missile launcher and Rowena fifty per cent of Erkath's company," Tephe replied happily.
"Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait," Malgath suddenly said with a look of shock, one shared by Eri and Kasumi, before he asked. "Your boyfriend gifted Rowena the fifty per cent of Erkath Fashion she now owns, as well as giving Stacey a missile launcher? Which Stacey, your granddaughter Stacey?"
"Opps, that wasn't for me to say. Sorry, Rowena," Tephe suddenly said apologetically.
"It's fine, dear, the look on their faces makes it all worthwhile, and I doubt I could have sprung it on them better myself," Rowena replied with a chuckle before asking, "And yes, Malgath, by Stacey, I mean my granddaughter."
"Why would he gift you fifty per cent of a successful clothing company like Erkath Fashion?"
"Why shouldn't he?" Rowena replied playfully.
"Because it makes no sense, if you were in a relationship with him like Diva Lorelie is, then it would make sense, but you're not," Malgath said in confusion before thinking of something and adding, "Not to mention, isn't it you that owes him something, not the other way around?"
"Oh, you're right, maybe I should have him use the favour I owe him to take me as his new lover," Rowena said as she shot Adam a suggestive wink.
"Really now, Rowena," Kasumi said with a sigh while shaking her head, something Stacey copied while saying.
"Grandmother."
"What, I'm only kidding," Rowena replied with her signature smirk, though if anyone looked closely, they would see that the smirk didn't quite reach the level it normally did.
Just before Malgath was about to speak, he, along with everyone else, suddenly heard a voice they didn't recognise coming from the Diva's holographic screen.
"We have arrived at Oceana Five and are dropping out of FTL."
"Ah, it appears we have arrived," Rowena commented before Spector suddenly spoke up in a much more urgent tone.
"ALERT: an enemy ship has locked onto us and is firing weapons."
"Activating condition red"
Adam's HUD was suddenly flooded with the usual notifications.
[[Activating Condition Red]]
[[Weapons systems online]]
[[Defensive systems online]]
[[Shields to maximum]]
[Launching stream.]
[[Stream description below:]]
[[Stream Title: Attacked after arriving at Oceana Five.]]
[[Mission Parameters: After dropping out of FTL at Oceana Five and while Divas Lorelie and Rowena where doing a live call-in to The MMM Show, Spector was suddenly attacked by an unknown ship with unknown intentions.]]
[[Missions Goal: Defend yourself and those aboard Spector.]]
[[Syncing Stream with The MMM Show call-in.]]
Just as the notifications appeared on Adam's HUD, a new holographic screen suddenly appeared next to Malgath's desk in the studio that showed a ship firing weapons at Spector.
"What's this?" Malgath asked in shock while everyone in the studio focused on the new holographic screen, and the director and producer backstage started asking who had brought the new screen up.
"What an amazing-looking ship, is that what Rowena and Diva Lorelie are travelling on?" Kasumi asked as she stared at the holographic screen with sparkling eyes.
Eri didn't comment, but if one paid attention to her, they would see that she was also paying close attention to Spector.
"Why did your stream just appear on The MMM Show?" Everyone suddenly heard Stacey ask in surprise.
"I need to get to the bridge," Adam replied before rushing out of the mess hall and towards the bridge.
"Can someone tell me what's going on?" Malgath asked as he, along with everyone else, continued to watch one of the ships fire on the other.
"It would appear that we are under attack," Rowena replied calmly.
"You don't seem to be concerned," Kasumi noted.
"This isn't the first time it's happened; the last time was the TISF after all, if even several of their ships couldn't do anything to our ship, what hope does one lone ship have?" Rowena explained.
"I see your point," Kasumi replied before Malgath started to address the audience in the studio and all those watching on the universal subspace network.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is something we have never before experienced on The MMM Show, but it appears that for the first time in the show's history, we will get to witness a live space battle between two ships.
I honestly can't think of any other show that has ever had this privilege besides Newscasts, so The MMM Show is once again making history.
While we don't know the reason why this unknown ship has attacked the frankly amazing-looking ship carrying the two Divas and her friends and family, neither Diva Rowena nor Diva Lorelie appear to be concerned about the attack, which leads me to think that this battle wont be long-lasting.
A question that we will need to ask Diva Lorelie's boyfriend once the battle is over is how he managed to somehow sync his stream that was just mentioned with our live broadcast here on Solarian Prime.
We have mentioned his stream before on The MMM Show and how it is almost impossible to watch, so viewers take this chance to witness Diva Lorelie's boyfriend and his ship in action, as we may never get to witness it again.
Oh, and don't worry, we will not be taking any advert breaks during this battle."
