The King and His Queen Part Two
By Brittney Keith
"Neru, do you think Meiko and Vicky are okay?"
"Yes, Teto, I think they are just fine."
A short girl with pink, curly piggytails stared at a map of West England. You could tell very easily that she was worried for her crewmates, Meiko and Victoria. On the other hand, a tall girl with a long, Blonde ponytail on one side was getting very irritated with young Teto's questions.
"Neru-" Teto began but what cut off by Neru, who was busy writing a letter.
"Yes, Teto! Yes, they are fine! They should be back ANY SECOND NOW!" Neru screamed at Teto. Behind Teto, there was another tall girl, but she had long gray hair, and she was getting almost as worried as Teto was.
"Neru-san, don't you think you should be a little nicer to Teto-chan?" Asked the girl behind Teto.
"She is annoying! And no matter what you say, Haku, I will not stop! Maybe when she's quiet and leaves me to write my letters by myself, and not with her constant whining and pleading and-"
"Neru! Neeeeeruuuuuuu!" Came a male voice from outside, "Neru, help me up!"
"M-Mikuo? Is that you?" asked Neru.
"Who else? It's definitely not Gumo, remember, he bailed. And Luki is a knight now, so, yeah. Oh, but we still have Honne, wherever he went off to today..." Mikuo started. He was almost exactly like Miku, except male and with short hair. "Oh, and the leader Big Al!"
"Mikuo, shut up and get in here!" Neru yelled at him offering her arm down to help lift him up. They were in a giant ship and the window to their quarters just happened to be right by the doc, so it was accessable when someone helped to lift you up through the circle window that could fit even Big Al, who was a particularly tall and husky man.
"Teto, are you almost done with those maps? We need to set sail in two days." Haku stated.
"Almost, Haku-san! Just a few more paces and I should be finished. But, I really wish Meiko and Vicky were here. Because I wouldn't be worrying so much, so I could finish faster..." Teto said with wide puppy-dog eyes staring at Neru and Mikuo.
"Oh my God, fine Teto, me, Haku, and Mikuo will go find Honne, and then me and Haku will search for Victoria while Mikuo and Honne search for Meiko." Neru gave in. Mikuo, who wasn't very happy about having to leave out the window after just entering through it, strongly disagreed.
"No, no, no! I will stay here with Teto, you, Haku, and Al can go find Honne, Meiko, and Vicky! I was just out there getting chased by gaurds, so I'm certainly NOT going out there again!" Mikuo stated.
"Wait, wai-wai, wait! You were being chased?" Neru questioned Mikuo, rather loudly.
"Well, you see-" Mikuo began.
"I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT! DID THEY FOLLOW YOU HERE?" Neru questioned again, rather loudly... again...
"I don't know!"
"Mikuo, YOU LITTLE-" Neru was suddenly, and unfortunately cut off by voices outside. Not just any voices, but voices of gaurdsmen. Who, indeed, did follow Mikuo there, and happened to catch up at just the right time.
"Haku! Quick, come help me fight them off!" Neru shouted.
"Bu-but, Neru-san! I don't wa-"
"HAKU!"
"Okay!" Haku grabbed her knife, and followed Neru who... had a pen. Why, the answer is unknown, so don't ask. Please...
