Chapter 2:
MEANWHILE
Chaco sees a book up high on the shelf. To high for him to reach!
"Hey Sasuke would you get that book down for me? I think it's the one we need to read!"
"Oh brother, you have wings Chaco."
"Oh yeah…..I forgot!" Chaco flaps his wings and fly's up a bit to grab the book. In doing so he knocks a bunch of other books of the shelf.
"Got it!"
"Idiot" Sasuke says quietly.
Chaco opens the book and places it on the table. Sasuke reads it as well.
"So…This is the book huh? Okay let's see if there is anything interesting!" Sasuke said. "Hmm…..It says here the Crystal Sword is in the land of Kameo! Where is that?"
"Hell if I know. I've never heard of it."
"Let's ask an adult…"
Sierra suddenly appears behind Sasuke "Hello!"
"Ahhh!" Sasuke spins around and sees Sierra. She is smiling
"I know where Kameo is. It's a hidden land from our part of the world so that the True Rune there cannot be found."
"True Rune!"
"Yes. However I will bring you there under one condition."
"Anything!" Said Chaco.
"I need you to escort me to the castle of Toran."
"Toran….But how do we enter Toran? The only way is Banner pass and it's always being guarded"
"I can get you past the Pass. Just promise to escort me all the way!"
Sasuke laughed. "That's it! That's so easy. We can do that right Chaco?"
"I dunno…Why do you want to go to Toran?"
"…..That is none of your concern! Just bring me to the castle okay."
"Yeah okay!" Chaco agreed.
Viki teleported the three to Banner Village. From there they had to travel north up Banner Pass then to Toran.
"The pass can be dangerous" Sierra said "So make sure your prepared!"
"Of course we are!" Chaco said being very Cocky. "I can handle anything!!"
Sasuke sighed "Yeah I've traveled through here many times."
"Okay boys! Which one of you will hold me?"
"Huh?"
Sierra pulls out a large seat made of oak. "This is my seat. I will sit in it and you will carry me!!"
"W-What!" Yelled Sasuke. "No way!"
"I can't do it" Chaco said "My Wings are in the way!"
"I'm only 13! That thing will break my back!"
Sierra sighed "You don't think I was going to walk did you?"
"Maybe I can help!" A voice from behind them said.
They turned to see a young boy around 17-18 standing there. He smiled. "My name is Kai. I would love to carry a lovely lady like you!"
"Really! See boys this is one who knows his manners. Then you may come with us!" Sierra said. "We are going to Toran Castle. These two boys are escorting me."
"I'm Chaco!!" Chaco said proudly.
"…..Sasuke"
"Right nice to meet you both. I didn't want to walk through there alone so I'm glad to have met all of you."
The group met very low resistance at first. Only Mountain Tigers. The group came to a large clearing.
"Whoa…" Said Kai. "What's that?"
A little green guy was standing there blocking the path. He whistled and suddenly a large amount of monsters emerged from the trees. Sierra jumped from her seat. "What is it you want!?" She yelled.
The green man smiled. "Your deaths. I must stop HER from getting power!"
"Her?" asked Chaco.
"Die fools!!"
The monsters with the green man were all large insect like creatures with wings and long legs. There were 5 of them.
The first one jumped at Chaco. He dodged and stabbed it in the back with his spear. He flew into the air to combat one that was high above using Flaming arrows on the group. The creature noticed Chaco and started firing Fire Balls at him. One came straight at Chaco but he deflected it with his spear and it smashed into the enemies face launching him into the trees below.
Sasuke was attacking from a distance and Kai was in front using his Scythe. The creatures were growing in number and attacking quite aggressively. Sierra started looking angry. "This is a waste of time!!"
A dark aura started to surround her. She cast Black Shadow destroying more then half the enemies attacking the group. "Weaklings" she taunted.
The green guy freaked out "Ahhhh! Retreat! Retreat now!!" They all ran off leaving Chaco, Sasuke, Kai and Sierra very confused.
"That was rather weird" Said Kai.
"I have a feeling we will be seeing him again" Said Chaco. "Don't you?"
Sierra took out a Mega Medicine and used it. "Hmm….Yeah I definitely think so. We should be on the alert from now on."
The group continued up the mountain path and arrived at a cliff with ladders that had to be climber to make it up. They climbed easily until the last one. Chaco somehow managed to pull a rung off and fall down landing on Sasuke!
"Ow! You idiot get off me!"
"S-Sorry Sasuke!" Chaco jumped off ashamed. "Maybe I'll fly the rest of the way up!"
Later the group finally found their way to the checkpoint. Varkas stood in front of it.
"Hello Varkas" Said Kai. "How are you?"
"What do you want?"
"We….We need past. And I'm not talking about Greinmeyer."
"What! Are you nuts??"
"Not even for a beautiful lady?" Sierra asked.
Varkas noticed Sierra glairing at him. "Just this once? Do we look like terrorists?"
"Well umm….I'm not…I can't…"
Sierra jumped off the Chair and stomped her foot. "Why must you people make things so hard for me?"
"Wait Sierra…" Kai said. "Varkas remember that time I sharpened your weapon for you for free? Because you ran outta money?"
"……"
"Well I need you to do this favor for me and let these guys go by!"
"Arrg….Kai you…..Okay fine! But don't tell anyone about this."
"Thanks Mr. Boarder guard!" Said sierra
"Uh…Call me Varkas okay?"
"Okay!"
The three went ahead through the gate into Toran.
