Day 2

San Francisco, California

11:00 am

Clarice and her twin brother Charles were walking along the street, admiring a new world from their home in England. The two Brits were having a family vacation and were looking around the streets to buy some souvenirs.

"Hey Charles!" his sister called, "how about this teddy bear? It's really, really cheap!"

Charles gave her a strange look, "You really miss Razshine if you were thinking of buying that bloody teddy bear."

"I do miss him brother," Clarice replied as she looked around the teddy bear, "how about Reishade? Do you miss her?"

"I miss her," Charles replied, "but not the part when I was controlled and she was bloody evil at that time."

"Charles! Mind your language!" their mother called out

"Sorry mum!" Charles replied quickly

"Let the lad be," their dad said, "it's a sign that they are growing up."

"Growing up!" their mother said in a shock, "Why I never... Jameson Youngson, you should be ashamed of yourself!"

"It's natural and you swear a lot too honey," the husband replied, "you swear a lot more than all of us combined back at home."

On no Dad... Clarice slapped herself in the face

"DONT CHANGE THE SUBJECT!" her mother roared at the husband

Parents... Charles groaned, I will never understand them...

"But Gertrude-!"

"Dont Gertrude me-?"

But then all of a sudden, a huge explosion appeared a few blocks away from them. It causes the people in the streets to panic cause confusion. The two felt that they have to follow that explosion, so they separate from their parents, left the teddy bear and runs off to see what caused it. When they reached the area, there stands a huge round crate on a highway where in the middle was a huge smoke. There were some cars that were tossed over to buildings, telephone wires were barely hanging up as sparks begin to fly and caused some cars to explode. Then as the smoke begins to fade they were in for a shock.

Two people, four mamodos. Two of the mamodos were familiar to the twins.

"It can't- Razshine?" Clarice chocked

"Clarice!" one of the mamodo calls out

Clarice gave Razshine a huge hug when Razshine rushed towards her. Reishade did the same to Charles. The twins then lighten their embrace and looked at their mamodos, happy and confused.

"What in the bloody world are you doing here?" Clarice words were a shock to the three since she never heard her say 'bloody' before

"Did she just said 'bloody'?" Reishade said to break the silence

"You must really miss us for you to say that," Razshine chuckled, "I never thought we would meet you guys here."

"I thought you guys live in London?" Reishade followed, "and this is San Francisco."

"We're on a family vacation," Charles replied and still overwhelmed with joy, "why are you guys here?"

"We're on a mission," Reishade replied, "to stop a possible war."

Then all of a sudden the sky begins to rain maces in the sky. Everyone runs away from the attack and move back from the crate.

"This is not looking good Lance…." He replied back

"What is going on here?" Charles asked Reishade

"Trouble." She replied calmly

Then out of the smoke were two mamodos and their partners. One was the teenage looking mamodo Maruss with his partner Rembrant, famed for his metal spiked spells and beside them were the giant Kikuropu and the English gentleman (whose name is still unknown).

"I didn't expect their partners to be that pathetic." The gentleman scoffed, "and to think I've wasted a good tea party for this?"

"This battle should be a cakewalk," Maruss followed, "let's finish this Rembrant!"

"Yeah!" Rembrant shouted, "The sooner we finish this match, the sooner we can claim the bounty!"

"You have a lot of nerves calling us weak you old coot!" Charles shouted back angry and his fist facing forward

"Let's take them down!" Sandir followed

"You ready Reishade?" Charles asked his mamodo

"Ready when you are!" Reishade followed and gave him the spell book from her purse

"Let's go Travis," Tiko called, "I need to take down that spoiled loser Maruss!"

"Like that will ever happened?" Maruss chuckled, "I'll make sure Ember's going to suffer slowly and painfully after this match is over!"

"Don't laugh…" Tiko growled, "You're going to regret saying that in front of me!"

I know that look, Sandir muttered "do you think you can handle this one by yourself?"

"Yeah," Travis replied, "but can you guys watch our back?"

"Yeah," Lance nodded, "good luck."

"The Crimson Prodigy doesn't need luck," Sandir said, "when he is fighting for his girlfriend!"

"Ember is just a good friend," Tiko replied with a slight hint of redness in his cheeks, "and I will not let any harm come to my friends Sandir!"

"But we're rivals."

"We'll settle that match after the mission is over," Tiko said with a grin, "Ebony Flame."

"The time for talk is over!" Maruss then called out, "you weaklings should have stayed home because now, you're in a world of pain!"

"We'll see about that!" Travis called out as Tiko's spell book starts to glow and casts the first spell, "SHAKAI!"

Tiko then opened his mouth and blast a flamethrower towards Maruss, but then was blocked when Kikuropu moved towards the attack as a shield.

"Is that the best you can do kiddies?" Kikiropu's partner called out, "Then I'm afraid it's all over!"

"Where's you pathetic king now?" Maruss followed

"You have a lot of nerves calling his majesty pathetic when he's not around!" a voice called out

Everyone then looked behind Rembrant and saw a team of eight, four human teens, three human-like mamodos and one lion cub mamodo, standing on top of the rooftops. Sandir is starting to find people popping out of nowhere annoying, Tiko, Travis, Lance, Clarice and Charles looked at each other confused and the mamodo twins sighed with a big relief.

"You're late!" Reishade and Razshine muttered

"I can't believe you dragged me into this Shayne!" the mamodo growled at his partner and shudders at Xavier and Griw Ver 'fighting stances'

"It seems that your friends are in trouble Arisha," the girl said in a whisper like tone to her mamodo, "do you think we should help them?"

"If we're not going to fight, can we please find some shade?" Arisha said to her partner, "my eyes hurt."

"Dude," Xavier whispered Griw Ver, "Don't vampires usually get burned when there is sunlight?"

"Yes," Griw Ver replied, "but the burning at the sunlight part doesn't apply to vampire mamodos. Her eyes are used to the darkness in Ever Night Forest and being exposed out in the sun for so long makes it hard for her eyes to adjust the brightness of the sun, I can see no reason why she is looking for shade."

"Alright," Mikoro said and faced toward Cici and the lion cub mamodo Nariko, "um…?"

"Yes Mikoro?" Cici asked

"Me and…" Mikoro said shyly, "we'll be-."

"It's alright," Nariko interrupted seeing Razshine nodded at her, "We'll come with you too. We'll just get in the way of the others."

"Thanks…" she muttered back

Mikoro and Arisha nodded and as the four rushed towards a nearby wall that was used to be a house, Ragedo and Shayne are thinking of backing out this fight too.

"This is not going to be a challenge at all," Ragedo muttered, "these brats can take on these old geezers."

"Alright," Shayne replied to her mamodo, "and to think, they said this was going to be dangerous."

"Hey dude!" Xavier called out to the two, "How about working as a team here? You know the saying, there is no 'I' in team!"

"Please stop Xavier," the tree mamodo Griw Ver replied, "you're making a fool of yourself."

"This is starting to annoy me!" Maruss roared with rage, "Rembrant!"

Renbrant then opened the book, "GARON!" causing to shoot out a battering ram from his hands and towards Tiko

"Not yet," Travis muttered to his mamodo as the battering ram is getting closer towards them, "NOW!"

Tiko jumped up and dodged it by a hairline as the attack went straight towards a broken down shop, shattering it to pieces. Travis on the other hand didn't move at all, even though he felt a touch of the battering ram, he was still focused. Tiko landed on top of the battering ram and start running towards Maruss. Annoyed, Maruss then moved the battering ram up towards the sky, tossing Tiko in the air.

"It's over!" Maruss called out, "Use the second spell!"

"GANZU GARON!" Rembrant shouted out loud, making Maruss shoot out maces from his hands and towards Tiko

"I don't think so," Travis called out, "RISHAI!"

Tiko counters the attack with multitudes of fireballs out of his hands, cancelling the attack and caused a huge smoke between the two. Then when Maruss was about to attack, Tiko emerged from the smoke and tries to punch Maruss, but Maruss dodged it and Tiko slammed his fist to the ground.

"That was predictable," Tiko grinned, "Travis!"

"TAROKAI!" Travis shouted, causing Tiko the ability to melt the ground and immobilizing Rembrant's and Maruss' feet. Rembrant was about to call out another spell, but Tiko quickly jumped out and kicked Maruss in the head, causing him to fall down from his back. Tiko then stomped Maruss' hands before the ground hardens and then bends down on Maruss.

"Let's end this," Tiko said to Maruss, "Travis!"

"It's not yet over!" Rembrant was about to cast another spell until Travis then throws a rock at Rembrant, knocking him out from a direct hit in the head and caused him to toss the book up in the air.

"SHAKAI!" Travis called out as he pointed towards Maruss' book. Tiko's flamethrower was a direct hit and cinders the book in seconds.

"You idiot!" Maruss called out to his partner as he starts to fade away, "You're going to pay for this Tiko!"

"How does it feel like to get beaten up by a weakling?" Tiko muttered

"AH-!" And just like the wind, Maruss was gone

"Looks like I have to do everything myself," the gentleman muttered and his book starts to glow, "EMRON!"

The spell caused Kikuropu's fist to light up and stretched his arms out. But it is not towards Reishade or Charles. The target was Cici, Nariko, Arisha and Mikoro.

"You coward," Charles shouted, "Reishade!"

"Look out!" Xavier shouted to the girls

"Ragedo!" Shayne called out to her mamodo even though Ragedo was already running to defend the girls.

Even though Ragedo was there to block the attack, Reishade blocked it with her bare left hands without any challenge.

"You have a lot of nerves doing something that cowardly in front of me," Reishade muttered and faced back to the others, "is everyone alright?"

"Yeah." Cici and Mikoro nodded

"Reishade…" Arisha called out, "sorry for-."

"Don't be sorry," Ragedo called out to her, "just rest up and be ready next time!"

"Ragedon…" Shayne chuckled lightly

"Let's end this!" Charles called out, "DARKAR!"

Reisahde then points her right hand towards Kikuropu and blasts out a beam of dark energy. The attack was a direct hit at the stomach, but wasn't able to pierce through the armour.

"Is that the best you can do?" the gentleman laughed, "You can't break Kikuropu's armour with that weak attack!"

"Who said we're breaking through the armour?" Charles called out, "DRAKAR!"

The black beam then burst out a second wave of energy with intense speed, pushing Kikuropu towards his partner, crushing him to the ground.

"Nothing makes me mad more," Charles muttered, "than the likes of you because give us Brits a bad name! Reishade!"

"Understood!" she replied as she jumps up in the air

"The second spell!" Charles called out, "NEBUKAR!"

Then Reishade opened her mouth and fires a potent black orb of energy, causing major damage to Kikuropu and also burning the book in the process. Reishade sighed heavily as she landed gracefully to the ground.

"Is everyone alright?" Reishade called out to Arisha and Ragedo

"You really like to show of," Ragedo spits out a piece of gum, "captain."

"If only I'm used to the sunlight," Arisha complained, "I would have not been so useless."

"Don't worry about it," Shayne replied, "and besides, it's a waste of your talents to beat that guy!"

Arisha nodded and replied with a smile.

"Thank you." Miroko said quietly

"What are team-mates for?" Shayne followed, "but you should try to speak up a bit. You're among friends here."

"Who are these guys?" Clarice asked Razshine

"Captain!" Nariko called out as she rushed out from the shelter, "Captain Razshine!"

"Nariko!" Razshine waved back, "I see you found your partner! That's great!"

"I guess… We have to introduce ourselves to the captains partners."

"Again with the introduction?" Ragedo groaned at Griv Ver, "You better not suggest using the circle of introduction or I will kill you!"

"What's the circle of introduction?" the twin humans replied

"Me and my big mouth..." Ragedo grumbled

As the group huddle together and the twins introduce themselves to the mamodos and their partners. But then it was interrupted when they heard the sounds of sirens. The groups were about to hightail their way out of there until a limo stopped them. Then the door opened, revealing a rich teenage girl. She has long blonde hair, blue eyes and wears a white dress.

"Get in!" she called out

"Sherry?" Shayne chocked, "what are you doing here?"

"There is no time for that! We have to go!" she replied

Everyone rushed inside, surprisingly everyone fits inside with room left to spare.

"This is huge!" Tiko said and opens a small fridge besides him, "Vod-ka?"

"Dont touch that!" Travis quickly closed the fridge and pulled back Tiko

"Step on it Albert!" Sherry called out as the limo begin to speeds it's way to the streets

"What's going on here?" Charles said confused and frustrated

"Can someone please explain what is happening here?" Clarice followed

"After a year of peace in the Mamodo world, a war broke out between King Zatch and Zeno's followers," Razshine said in a serious tone, "but to make things worst, this guy named 'Ancient' appeared and held a tournament that involves the Ssu Ling Stones."

"The Ssu Ling Stones?" Cici and Clarice asked

"They are dangerous relics that should not be tampered with," Sherry replied, "I was told that if these were to break from their seal, there will be a possibility that it will cause an imbalance to both worlds."

"So… are you saying we have to stop this tournament?"

"Yes," Sherry replied, "but before we do that, we have to contact General Brago that you are safe?"

"You know General Brago?"

"No duh," Ragedo scoffed, "she's his human partner."

"That was rude Ragedo." Griw Ver called out

"I have my rights you twig hugger!"

"What did you say you Brago defect?"

"That's it!"

"Shut up!" Sandir shouted, "there's something ringing…"

They all stopped talking and heard Sherry's cell phone ringing. She picked it up. There was complete silence. It was so quiet that the voice on the phone was heard very clearly.

"Sherry, I need you at Brazil as soon as possible! I found out that there is a mamodo that is holding a Ssu Ling Stone and so far, the seal has not yet broken. When you meet the mamodo that has the stone, don't make it nervous! The stones have a mind of its own and will react when the mamodo and the partner feels threaten. Sorry for the short information, but I'm afraid that the enemy might be tracking this as we speak I have to go now!"

The phone was hanged up before Sherry could even reply back. She stared at the phone for a few minutes until she closed it and put it back to her pocket.

"Albert!" Sherry called out, "We need to go to Brazil as soon as possible!"

"ALRIGHT!" Griw Ver called out "We're going to Brazil!"

"It just have to be somewhere that invovles trees..." Ragedo groaned, "this is such a drag."

And so it begins... Razshine thought as he stared outside the window as they crossed the golden gate bridge

Great... Charles and Clarice thought, How are we going to explain this to our parents?
