Ch.1-The Naked Cowboy and The Village People

Sara woke up feeling like something was missing, but she couldn't tell what it was. The WitchBlade glowed a bright red confirming her feelings. She looked down at the floor, and saw Babykins asleep in his bed; she smiled and slowly got up.

*It's a beautiful day, glad I don't have to work. *

She walked over to her window and glanced down at the street, it was pretty quiet for a Monday morning.

*To quiet, wonder what time it is. *

Sara shuddered a little when the clock on her nightstand read 11:11. She decided to not let it get in they way of her good day, she shrugged it off and walked into the kitchen to make breakfast. On her way to the kitchen she almost tripped on her bike helmet, which she had carelessly dropped on the floor last night after she got home. Luckily she caught herself from humiliation, even though no one was in the house besides her and Babykins.

"Very graceful Sara, very graceful." Danny said laughing a little

"Thankyou, I try" Sara said not totally startled this time at his popping up…or in

"What are you going to do on your day off?" he asked a little curious

"Maybe go in and get some paper work done" she said looking through the cabinets for something for breakfast

"Why go to work on your day off Pez" he made the question a statement not to be ignored

"Good point, maybe I'll…somewhere." She said getting out the coffee maker, and now looking for coffee

"You really have to stop being so damn unconfusing!" he said sarcastically

"You need to work on your confusion tolerance." She said using his own line on him

"Yeah, Yeah, ok you win" he told her giving in

"Well I am out of coffee, and need to go get some." Sara was still looking in her cabinets when she half yelled so Danny could hear

"What? How can anyone ever be out of coffee? That's a sin!" Danny said popping out

"Danny, Danny, Danny. What would I ever do without you?" Sara questioned looking up at her ceiling

Sara walked over and gently patted Babykins to wake him up.

"Come on sweetie, let's go to the store." Sara said smiling as her puppy woke up and yawned.

She showered, dressed, and fed the baby dog. She put Babykins in his leather jacket, put her leather jacket on, and made sure they had their matching WitchBlades on. When all this was done, she headed out the door.

"Heal." Sara told Babykins in the sternest voice she could muster.

Babykins fell in step with his owner, though he was running and not walking. Sara let out a slight chuckle at this, seeing her puppy running along side her. She forgot about the feeling she had this morning, it was nothing but a thought shoved in the back of her already past full mind. She was going to walk to the little mini-mart around the corner of the block. It was only about a half an hour walk nothing big, she had walked more on the job. Sara got some alone time; to think about anything she wanted, which wasn't the Blade, Nottingham, or anything connected with the Blade.

*Everything's connected. *

She laughed at herself; she couldn't even walk to the store without thinking of something that had to do with the Blade. It was getting that bad, but was it really bad? She had no clue what it was.

*Its both good and bad, I guess. I mean could be a lot worse, right? *

Sara decided and turned the corner to the store and glanced down, Babykins was still there trotting along trying to keep up. She walked into the store with Babykins at her side, and started looking for some coffee…she really needed it in the morning.

"Excuse me miss, we don't allow dogs in here." Said a skinny teenager from behind the counter

"Um…seeing eye dog in training" Sara thought quickly and spat out

"Ok, that's fine." The girl went back to looking at her magazine

Pezzini started looking at the coffee again, and thought about what she wanted that morning.

*Decaf…no way, mocha…maybe…French vanilla…sure why not *

She reached out and grabbed a package of French Vanilla flavored coffee and walked up to the counter to pay.

"That'll be $3.11" the girl told Sara

"There ya go, bye." Sara said as she put the money on the counter and walked out.

She walked out into the sunshine, and checked to make sure Babykins was there…he was.

"Good boy." Sara praised her puppy as he waged his tail

They began to walk home, Sara lost in her thoughts of nothingness and Babykins working to keep up with Sara's pace. That was hard work, after all he had little legs, and wasn't used to running these distances. He did have the blood of champions in him, after all. If Babykins didn't love Sara so much, he would have just stayed at the little convince store. But he knew he couldn't do that, because he loved her too much, she needed protection and the affection that only a cute, cuddly, lovable Pomeranian could deliver…and that was his job. They had turned the corner on to their street when this man almost popped up.

"AH!" Sara screamed from being startled

*He is wearing…nothing!…No wait…there is a God…he is wearing…skin colored underwear? *

"Pleased to meet you Ma'am. I am the Naked Cowboy." The man tipped his hat, strummed his guitar, and waved to something. "And they are the village people."

Out from around the corner of the building came 6 men. One was dressed as an Indian chief, one as a hard hat worker, one as a cowboy, one as a cop, one as a sailor, and one as a biker.

*…ok…I'll have to report these guys when I get back home. This is just a little weird! *

"Uh…nice to meet you guys. I need to get going home before my puppy dies of thirst." Sara tried to make an excuse and walk around the odd group

"I am sorry, Miss. You can not go home now." Said the naked cowboy as he nodded to "The Village People"

What happened next was all a blur for Sara; all she knew is that the WitchBlade didn't come flinging out and protect her.

*The WitchBlade abandons its wearer in her darkest hour *

The words rang in her head so loud she thought she was going to pass out. Sara had to get to her puppy, make sure he was safe, that was all that matter, Babykins's safety. Then Sara saw what happened, she couldn't believe her eyes, or ears for that matter. There was a sound like the WitchBlade fling full body armor on its wielder. She turned her head in time to see Babykins in full doggy armor with blades coming out of his side to stab people with. As the dog ran around "The Village People" trying to kill them with his blades, the sun caught on his armor and the metallic shine took The Biker and The Naked Cowboy away form her, to help the others. That's when it happened, the armor stopped working, and went back to being a normal collar. Sara couldn't move to help her dog, then she realized that the Indian Chief was still holding onto her. The others grabbed the now defenseless puppy and ran off with it.

"Good Night, Princess" Said the Indian Chief as he hit her on the head with a steel bar.

Sara fell senseless as the men ran away with her puppy and his WitchBlade. She tried to fight away the dark that was closing in on her…but it was no use, she couldn't fight it any longer. Pez panicked a little as it took her over, but then felt nothing as the black cloud took her away to a world of nothingness.
