A heavy punch hit my body. Slowly I open my Eyes. I must be falling asleep by reading my book. I stretched and yawned and looked back in my book. It was an Adventure roman. About Cowboys and Indians and such Adventure stuff. My live was there not really exiting. I came out a rich family. My Dad owns a lot of Crystal mines and such stuff. Really boring. My rule was to play the nice little girl. But that was not really my dream of live. I want Action, Adventure and May a love story. But until now I could only have this all in my books. If I had there know what happened in the next days. I didn't had believe it. But back to my story. My name is Piper. I am 16 years old. To time I travel for my Dad to his newest Project. He found a new Island in the See. He called it Terra Sahrar. Because it was a only occurs. So he instructed a company called the Cyclonies. To build a infrastructure and start with the reduction of the Crystal but now they were 1 moth over the time plan and so I had to look what went wrong there. I looked back in my book. It wa snow really exiting. The Heroes was short before save the prices from the bad guys. Until the door opens and my maid come sin.
"Milady. The captains says we arrived in ten minutes. Do you want to make yourself fresh?" she asked polite. I looked up and lay the book away. I looked short at the clock which was hanging over the door. it was 11 o 'clock am.
"No thanks." I only said short.
"Do Milady need something?" she asked again in this polite voice.
"No thanks." I smiled. Then she left." I stand up and looked out of the window. On the horizon I could see the desert. A desert. Why in goddess name must be this crystal in a desert. I mean it is impossible that this idiotic things appeared at a place like Tropica?. No the appeared on the worst places on the planet. I moaned and went back to my couch. I hope this travel would be only half so boring than expect.
The ship entered the harbor. After the sailors make the ship save. I leave at first the ship. Followed by my maids and butlers. I send my maid away which was followed me with a sun umbrella. I looked around it was one of the dirtiest harbor I had ever seen. It smells like Rum and too much man's how did wash often. Then I saw a man. He went direct to me. He carries a big black cowboy hat a long black coat. On his belt I could see 2 big black guns. His Eyes were fire red and in his mouth he as a small cigarette.
"Miss Piper?" he asked with a rough voice.
"Y….Yes!" I stuttered. Because I was not sure what this man wants from me.
"My name is Dark Ace. Or only Ace for you. I was send by Misses Cyclonis. To protect you by your travel to the mine." He said and swift his hat with his finger a little bit up. So he could see me better.
"Good. At least something that she makes really right." I snapped at him. Ok it was not my nature but I was really tired after this one week trip over the see. I noticed he was not happy with my answer. I think he had expect something like me. A rich girl from the city which was familiar with luxury and glamour.
"Good our train well leaves this city today evening. We have a room for you in the Saloon. When you want to follow me Miss Piper. I show you the way." He said polite. But I noticed it was really hard for him.
"Thanks but I think I am able and old enough to find the way my own. James follows me please with my suitcase I want to change my clots." I said and start to go. Ace only looked shocked at me. I think I was his Absolut nightmare. I smiled as I was out of his view range. I love it to make people down which are unsympathetic for me.
I arrived late at the Train station. Ace looked impatiently at his clock than back to me. He noticed that I change my clothes. I put this long blue dress away. I mean. I had to wear it because my dad mean I have look always like a princes but now I was miles away an di wan t wear something with more comfort. So I wear blue jeans. Sleeveless blue and orange Leather jacked long blue cloves. Also a brown cowboy hat and brown boots. He looked at me.
"Miss Piper I have to say you like quiet better in this outfit." He said gently. I fell that I was getting red. Never before i get such a charmed compliment from a man.
"thanks!" I only said. But then I noticed this Hugh army of man behind him. He looked a little bit stunned at the many cowboys.
"Don't be worried. That's all my men's. They her only to protect you." He said.
"And for what? When it is allowed to asked." I asked.
"Get in a di tells you the whole story." He said with a dark smile. i did it. We go in the nice wagon of all. I sat myself to a widow. Then the train starts slowly to move.
"So why you need an Army to protect me. For what. And why you are a moth behind the plans of my dad?" I start too asked.
"We have a main Problem with some bandits. These guys think we destroy the Land her and now the fight against us. Also they convinced the indigenous that we are bad. And now the fight also against us. We are under attack every day." He said worried. I looked a little bit questioned at him.
"But I though you pay the indigenous a fair price for their land?" I asked.
"Yeah. We did. But now they want more. But you can trust us. Misses Cyclonis know what see do. And now please stay her I have to check every think." He stands up and go away. It was a little bit confused for me. I mean this guy was sure ten years older than me but he was charming. Also I ha never seen such a natural men. He doesn't play an other part. He only do what he want. He was a really adventure man. Slowly I start looking out of the window. The landscape was terrible. Only sand and some small bushes. Slowly I feel that I was tired again. Then I start to sleep.
