Chapter 2 : the search for the Trident with A family twist
Recap Time- Caedmon met Bianca when she was injured and he treated her injuries. As they were together, they had a child named Maya, and Bianca hoped that she would take the mantle of Queen of Atlantis with the help of her friend's son, Joseph, to become the King of Atlantis alongside Maya. During their days, they discover Atlantis and Maya realized her mother had been killed off by an evil king known as King Anpu. Now where they left off, 20 years later, Maya soon begins to become AquaWoman as she is now looking for the trident with the help of Maddie and Joseph. Will she be able to find it in time?
Let's begin!
(Author's POV)
Where we last left off, Maya and Joseph made it back to the beach after what happened in the sea. "Whew, that was close… Thanks, Mom, for having my back," Joseph told her. "You're welcome, my son. They fuck with you, they fuck with me," she said sternly. "Damn, never knew yo' mom cuss like that. I dig it," said Maya. "She really cares about me, and when someone tries to fight with me, she'll join the fight no matter what happens," Joseph said while winking. "Heh, nice. Anyway, I just had a weird vision of a golden trident and you surrounded by a bunch of murderous sea creatures," She said. Joseph and Maddie looked at her in shock like she is crazy. Except Joseph knew what she was saying. "Ah. My mother knows where King Atlan's trident is, as he spoke to Maddie's great grandmother about it," he said. "Really? Well if that's the case, where do we start looking for it?" said Maya who took out a beer from her bag she carries with her at all times. "Really. Bringing beer JUST for the occasion. You're gonna get so intoxicated. XD" Joseph said and Maddie chuckled. "Actually, I never went to the hospital due to alcohol poisoning due to my immune system at all but there is one time…" she admitted. The one time that she didn't go to the hospital just for drinking beer, but actually going there to help her father after that bitch threw the tsunami at the lighthouse, Joseph said in his mind. "Anyway, let's go look for the trident. I'll lead the way," Maddie said and Joseph gave Maya a tracker. "This tracker can help you find us," Joseph said and Maddie went to go for the trident. Joseph followed her and Maya started following them later.
Meanwhile, with Lorana, she was on her way to the remaining kingdoms. Joseph will pay for everything he's said and done to me, she was thinking in her mind. The first kingdom she's going to was the kingdom of the mermobians, which look like the mobians on the surface but they have mermaid tails and breathe underwater and their ruler was a blue merhog named Sonic. Sonic saw her coming and she asked him, "hello king sonic, how are you?" "I'm doing very well, Lorana. What brings you here?" he asked her back. " I want to unite all 7 kingdoms including yours to wage war on the surface," she said, but Sonic shook his head. "I'm sorry, but I cannot join your cause. What's your reasoning for wanting to wage war?" he asked her and she simply said, "Because my half breed bitch sister is the reason why my mother is dead and I want to make her pay by destroying everything she loves, that's my reason," she said but Sonic shook his head again. "I'm sorry, but you're on your own. Try and keep it in your family if you're this worked up," he told her. Lorana just glared at him and said "Well then, you'll be so sorry that you didn't join me when the surface attacks your kingdom. Mark my words, rat," she said, but he just laughed it off. "Pfft. They're welcome to try," he said as she left. But as Lorana left, she went to her ship and look at the contacts she has and she found the one she is looking for. "Heh, time to make a deal with the devil," she said. Meanwhile, with our heroes, they were on their way to the city of Sicily. Maddie was on the right track to finding the trident and Maya kept following the two while drinking her beer she bought from the bartender. "So how much far is this place?" said Maya. "We're almost there, Maya. We have 1 minute to get there," Maddie told her. "Ok then," she said. They get there and the trident was sitting right there. "Is that it? Well, that was easy, let's go get it," Maya said. But when she was about to grab it, a red plasma beam almost took out her hand. "WHOA!! What the hell?!" she yelled and then she saw Lorana. "Son of a bitch…" "Hello sister, I see you found the trident, but no matter, if you're wondering, do you know a jackal named Zero who goes by infinite?" she said and Maya realized who she's talking about. "Ah, shit…" she muttered as she took out her own mother's portable trident, as she kept it as a memoir to Bianca for 20 years. Joseph got his trident out, which was the Trident of Heaven. "Heh, time for a mini war before the real war" said Lorana as she called her assassin who appeared beside her. "So Long that i've waited to kill the AquaWoman who didn't save my family…" he said. "Who the hell are you?" Maddie asked the assassin. "I used be called Zero but i'm known as Infinite, The Great Illusionist and that woman there left my family to drown in that US vessel 2 days ago..." Joseph recognized him, but didn't have time to talk as Infinite went after both Maya and Joseph. But Maya attacked first, as she swung her trident at Infinite in rage. She hit him with a lucky shot and Lorana went after Joseph to make him pay for breaking up with her. "I'm going to kill you!" she yelled as she attacked. "You're definitely welcome to try, woman!" Joseph said as he side-swiped her in the face with his trident. Little did they know, a mysterious figure was watching them fight but it was looking at Maya. "You only want to wage war, Lorana, which is why I should've never loved you in the first place! WAKE UP TO REALITY!" Joseph yelled, but she got even more pissed as she tried to attack him. But a scream was heard as Maya got stabbed in the stomach by Infinite who wore a victory smirk. But Maddie stabbed him after Maya got stabbed. "Argh! You bitch!" he yelled. "Ha ha! Jackpot!" she said as she kicked him away. As Maya was about give Maddie her hand, she suddenly was whisked away by the mysterious figure as the last thing she saw was a silver crown before she closed her eyes. "MAYA!!! Mom, I'm going after her! Think you can handle them on your own?!" Joseph asked her and she smiled. "Son, your own mother took down an army! I can handle 2 like hotcakes! Be careful!" she said as he nodded and whisked away to save Maya.
Later on, Maya woke up in some cave with crystals on the walls. "Where am i, what is this place?" she said. "Welcome to my lovely cave," said the mysterious figure as it took off its hood. "What the…..Mom…??" she said in a whisper and she was about to cry. "Yes, my little flower~ It's me…" Maya ran up and tackled her with love. "I thought you were gone!!" she cried. "I was never gone. I was sacrificed, yes, but it turns out I was teleported to the hidden sea in the center of the earth," she explained to her. Bianca sensed someone friendly coming and it turns out it was Maddie's son. "Well I'll be, hello Joseph," she said. Joseph stopped short. "Your Majesty…" he started to say, but Bianca finished it for him. "I know, I'm alive, but we need to hurry, we have to find the trident for that one was a illusion conjured by that Jackal," she said and then something was glowing in the distance. "Hey i think i see something, guys," said Maya. Joseph knew that the glow was not an illusion. It was the real trident of Atlantis. "That over there is the real trident but it's guarded by the creature known as the Krathen" said Bianca. Maya knew she had to do this for she had no choice because both of her worlds are in danger. She looked at Joseph and he nodded. "Give that creature hell and get that trident," Joseph said and she smiled. "I sure will," she swam to the trident and as she was about to grab it, a tentacle slapped her from the trident. "Aw, hell no! Not on my watch!!" she yelled and she fought the creature. But she realized the creature was too strong so she has to think of something and fast then she got it. "Krathen, STOP!" she yelled as the tentacle stopped in mid air as like it heard her. And it spoked in a male voice,
No Mortal has ever tried to speak with me since Altan….who are you?
Maya got it's attention and she said,
"well, i'm no queen, that's for sure….i don't think i'm here because i thought i was worthy...i'm here because i have no choice...because my home is trouble and i have to save everyone for it's my destiny," she said to it.
No Mortal has ever been able to make it this far….You may proceed, Young One…
Maya understood and as she swam, she grabbed the trident and suddenly, the power of the trident went coursing through her body.
The mighty trident was now hers to own. And she is now sporting a new outfit.
She returned to Joseph and Bianca with the Trident in hand. "Alright. Now that you got the power, Maya, I think it's time for you to defeat your sister and King Anpu," Bianca told her and Joseph nodded. "You're gonna be the new queen of Atlantis for sure," he said. "Right but we need to make sure your mom is ok," she said.
They swam to where Maddie is at and she looks ok but Lorana is gone. "Mother, what happened?" Joseph asked her and she said, "I scared 'em off. Ha! They won't be messing with us for a while!" she said. Maya wasn't sure. She feared that Lorana was going to do something awful. "Where did my sister go?" she asked. "Oh, back to her father's kingdom," Maddie said. Maya knew that Lorana is going to try to force those kingdoms to join her side, so she said, "We need to stop her and Anpu and pronto but we're going to need the kingdoms' help first," she said.
