Chapter 1
Return Trip to Albion on Halloween

Looking around the dark wooded area that surrounded the neighborhood and the tar streets, Anthony let out a bored sigh for another time. It was nearly night fall as the sky was becoming dark, mixing with the orange tints of sunset that was behind them and covered by the hills and mountains that surrounded the desert-turned-town area. There were a few "trick-of-treat"ers out, but not as much as the past few years. Everyone was growing up and leaving the area of La Puente, going on with their lives and leaving their childish antics in order to make a living.

"Are we almost there?" he heard Elias whine out. Turning to his friend who was dressed as a modern ninja with little black wings, he said, "We would be if you didn't stop at every freaking house for candy!" The younger teenager let out a nervous laugh as Anthony looked ahead, recognizing the park from the last time he came here with his friends for a random session of recording antics. As they reached the intersection of the street that separated them from the park, they saw a few groups of kids in costumes and casual. There was a large group that walked towards them at the same time they crossed the street, all the little boys dressed as Iron Man or War Machine. There was a duo of girls in a very indiscreet version of the two mechanic heroes, winking at them as they passed each other. The two would have stayed still to watch the girls walk off if they hadn't been honked at. Quickly running to other side and flipping off the driver, they resumed their trek to Lisa's house. It was going to take at least seven minutes to get there as they started to chat about what plans their friend has in store for them.

However, their conversation was interrupted when a bright light appeared before them, causing them to stagger as Anthony covered his face with his black hood and Elias fell back on his butt. Once the bright light lessened, they soon saw what looked like a circle of light which held a familiar design. A familiar elderly woman faded in front of them as she greeted, "Hello again, Anthony and Elias."

Izzy: … What the fuck, Lisa?

Lisa: What?

Izzy: Isn't it a bit too early for Theresa to appear in the story? I thought it would at least reach page 4 before she appears, not on page one!

Lisa: Hey! I feel like it and I am adding more shit to this, so sit down and shut up… and keep that door locked. We don't need Enstranz coming in here and—

Enstranz: Hello.

Lisa: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-!

It took the two at least ten seconds to react to this, and they reacted rather negatively as the two shouted simultaneously, "What the fuck are you doing here? You evil conniving bitch!" Obviously, their comments and questions were ignored as she simply said, "You are needed once again." Anthony narrowed his eyes as he was about to snap at her, but Elias beat her to the punch and shouted, "Why the fuck should we do anything? Last time we saw you, you fucking high tailed out of Hero Hill to leave everyone to either kept kidnapped for a ritual or be shot and killed by Lucien!"

She simply replied to this, "Your friend's past self and the others are quite alright and have lived their lives, but the peace that Sparrow has fought for will be crushed if you do not return back to Albion." The two just stared at her with disbelief as they simply answered, "No." They turned to continue their walk to Lisa's house, which were just a couple of houses away and a turn of a corner. However, the ground suddenly felt like it was fading beneath them as they tried to keep their balance. The two turned to Theresa as she said, "I'm sorry, but whether you want to or not, I must send you back to help the next Hero." As she waved her hands as if she was a Jedi, the ground beneath the two disappeared as they fell into the familiar abyss from two years ago. Their screams were unheard as Elias took a note of the neighborhood before the ground was above their heads.

At a nearby house, there were a couple of kids walking away from it as one of the children was floating in midair, as if just jumping from the step. Another child was throwing a candy bar in the air which floated simply. It quickly clicked in his head as he thought on simple idea.

Our world… our time… it's stopped…

The smell of fresh air that hid the hint of smoke and melting metal slowly filled his senses. His eyes soon opened to see a canopy of a rich luxury king bed. The comforter and thin blankets hung loosely on him as Anthony groaned, his head aching from what felt like hitting the ground so hard that it should have killed him. The events before waking up were a blur to him as Anthony closed his eyes, trying his best to remember everything.

However, before he could begin memory searching, the sound of a door opening caught his attention as did the feeling of an extra weight going on the bed. Looking, he saw a woman dressed in a maid outfit as she was about to dab his forehead with a wet towel. Her hand shadowed over her face until she was shocked to see that he was awake. Lowering her arm, her face was shown as Anthony narrowed his eyes and asked, "Michelle?" The girl looked at him with a confused face as she said, "I guess Teacher was right about you mistaking people for others. My name's Susan, not Michelle." The teenager nodded his head as he heard the door open once again and hearing a voice he hadn't heard for two years.

"How is he, Susan?"

Turning his head, he saw the familiar face of Lee staring down at him and Susan. She wore different attire from the last time he saw her. It reminded him of the one that blonde woman had worn from the second movie of those pirates, minus the pirate hat and weapons. The Michelle look-alike stood and bowed to her while Lee just waved her hand to stop her midway. Going to Anthony, she sat on the side and simply asked, "Are you Nassir or are you Anthony?" A long pause came between them as Anthony soon answered, "I better pray that I'm not in the mansion in Bloodstone or so help me, I'm going to kill myself." This made the girl smile as she said, "It's good to see that you are alright, Anthony. It's been fifty years since we have seen you and your friend." Shock filled his face for a second before he then realized where he was as was the plot for this. However, he pushed it out of his mind as he asked, "Where's Elias?" Seeing the uneasy look on her eyes, he assumed the worse.

In truth, however…

"Strike like your life depended on it!"

Letting out a battle cry, Elias brought down his sword as it parried with Rook's magical one. As the two fought, Rook then commented, "Your skills have weakened the last time we sparred, Elias." Hearing a laugh, Elias gave a glance to the man who looked like his friend, Michael, whose name is Cyconyeal as he wore a simple scholar outfit. Rook wore what looked a bit regal for him, but simple in the current timeline that was a mixture of the Industrial Age and the Renaissance. It still gave off a sense of magic, but it still didn't stop the fact that he was getting his butt kicked by a mage. As the man disappeared into thin air once again, Elias groaned angrily as he shouted, "Stop cheating and fight like someone from the fucking 21st Century, God Dammit!"

Hearing a chuckle, he turned to the only door to the room and saw his friend, Anthony, up and dressed in a simple shirt and pants with brown boots. Before he could say his name in relief, he suddenly felt a fist connect to his fast as if it was coming from a bullet train. As he rolled across the floor and was embedded into the wall, he heard laughter as he looked to see Rook fade back into view with a smug look on his face. "Man, you suck, Eli," Anthony stated as he walked to him and pulled him from the wall. Elias just grumbled as he brushed off the wood dust from his shoulders. Telling him to be silent, the two turned to Rook as he now stood before them with Cyconyeal behind him. "Well, that was a good warm up for the trip," he stated as he said to Cyconyeal. "Get our things ready. We leave in an hour." The two teenagers looked at him oddly as Rook answered the question that wasn't spoken.

"We're gonna go on a trip, that's all I need to say," Rook simply said as he then motioned Cyconyeal to follow him out. As they watched the two leave, the two noticed Lee enter the room after bowing to the retreating man and bidding him farewell. They saw her get pulled into a hug before she was pushed out of it while Rook seemed to say something to her, but they couldn't hear it. They then bowed to each other before she bowed to Cyconyeal and watched them leave. Deciding to take this moment to walk towards her, Anthony asked, "What's that all about?" The girl turned to look at them as if to answer, but was quickly stopped when the sound of running footsteps were coming down from the hallway. The two boys had no time to react when they were suddenly pushed back into the armors that stood by the fireplace, the metal coverings falling with them when they hit the ground on their backsides. Looking up, the two saw that a girl looking at least the age of fifteen stared up at Lee frantically as she began to spout words that held a tone of desperation.

"Where is he? Did he take him away? Tell me!" the girl shouted as she shook the maid violently. "Where's my dear Baby Cy?"

"Whoa… she looks familiar," Elias stated as he stood up, taking off the helmet that was on his head due to being thrown into the suit. Anthony looked forward and noticed that the woman's attention was now focused on them. In almost a millisecond, she was standing in front of him and shaking him violently, shouting, "Where is he? Where is my Baby Cy?" Elias just stared fearfully while he watched his friend getting close to getting his neck broken when Lee stood behind the girl and said, "He and Rook just left, Haroin!" She quickly covered her mouth, as if she made a mistake as the girl dropped the now unconscious teenager on the floor before slowly turning her head to the demon maid.

As the woman started to spout out words of anger about this, Elias slowly crawled to his fallen friend as he asked, "You okay, dude?" There was no movement at first before he saw the blonde lift his arm up and made a gesture that showed he was okay; well, the gesture was more like a slap to Elias's face, but it still showed that he was alright. Touching the now reddening cheek, he looked to see that Lee was trying to readjust her clothes from the shouting as she looked back to the two and said, "It seems that I do not need to introduce our assassin." This caused the two boys to gawk at this new development as they two shouted, "That is your assassin?" Lee just laughed nervously as Anthony heard Elias mutter, "I hate to meet their spies."

"Aren't assassins like spies?" Anthony asked innocently before getting a glare from the younger teen.

Watching the two bicker, she let out a small giggle but stopped when she heard a rather quite voice from the hallway. Heading towards the source, she saw Susan looking rather disturbed. Walking towards her, she asked, "What is the matter?" Seeing the complete worried look on her friend's face, she didn't need an explanation as she sighed and said, "I'll go see to him right away." With that and a quick order to escort the guests back to their rooms, she headed towards the Throne Room. Once she stood before the King of Albion, she went down to one knee and lowered her head. "Your Majesty, you summoned me?" she inquired.

"How are our guests faring?" he asked. Lee glanced at Walter who stood on the throne's right side, looking as stoic as possible. She then stared down to the ground as she said, "They have seemed well aware that they have arrived in a different time, King Logan. The one named Nassir, also known as Anthony to his close comrades, has seemed to still have his power over lightening." The crowned scowling man narrowed his eyes and asked, "How is it that you know this man so well, Lee?" The woman stood up slowly and placed her hands together in front of her, but tried her best not to stand so similar to the one that had guided the Queen all those years ago. She then stated, "He still has a future as a Keeper, even so far from his time, My King. I can still feel that the power he held is still there and will slowly grow in the coming days."

King Logan scratched his chin, slightly brushing his goatee, as he then seemed to notice something behind her. The woman turned to see a frail man in peasant clothing that was bloody and torn due to a scuffle. Seeing Walter subtlety move his hand as if he was shooing her away, she took that as a sign to leave. Doing a quick bow, she quickly left the throne room, closing the doors behind herself. Letting out a sad sigh, she noticed Jasper walking towards her as she bowed and said, "Good evening, Jasper." She then saw that he was holding some sort of parchment. He seemed deeply worried as he then handed to her and said, "This was dropped off by a courier. It is addressed to you, my dear." Slowly taking it from the man, she looked at the envelope and immediately recognized the seal that held the envelope closed. Her hands slightly shook as she smiled gently and stated, "Thank you, Jasper. I'll tend this personal matter later."

"Seems rather restless at night," Elias commented as the sound of thunder echoed through Bowerstone, its flash of light bursting into the room to cast shadows that the fire couldn't do so. Sitting with them was Susan as she was fixing their small dinner they were given, placing the well-done steaks on their own plates with homemade stuffed Portobello mushrooms and baked potatoes filled with cheese and bacon bites. Balancing them well on the serving tray, she placed it on the bed. Elias's attention soon averted to the delicious meal, his concentrated look turning into one that looked as if Thanksgiving had come early. He literally floated towards the plate and started to scoff down the steak. Anthony felt a chill of fear as the way his friend ate the steak was like that deleted scene from YuGiOh.

Note: If you don't know what that means, just go to YouTube and look up "Bakura" and "steak". It makes me hungry for a steak every time I see it, and I don't know why. XD

A thought went through his mind when his attention averted back to the sky. Reaching towards the sky, some of the rain dripped on to his fingers, giving small dabs of cold to his nails. He then reached towards the cloud that had been erupting out the flashes of light. He concentrated the best as he could as his hand started to be covered in small sparks and streaks of light. Although curiosity was growing even more, he pulled his hand away so that he doesn't become a lightening rod and muttered, "Guess it isn't over for us…"
