Okay I know I said I would have this one up soon. Sorry it was a bit late last night so here's that chapter now.
Chapter 3: Princess
"It took a long time. But finally I am close to her. She within these ruins. Now I just have to find her." I thought as I made my way down a hallway.
It's been two years…
How will she look now…I wonder.
Well Older…but that a given.
But…
More than anything I'm worried about her health.
"Sara…" I whispered out loud. But quickly stopped in my tracks seeing pieces of broken ice lying on the ground.
This was her work. No one could use the guardian's magic as well as she can.
Wait…If she uses magic that…mean monsters are in here?!
I quickly took off running.
This place isn't safe.
Damnit…She's so reckless.
I was blown away…
What could I say?
What the hell is she thinking? I wondered as some Jabberwocks appeared before me.
"What the hell…are these kinds of monsters doing here?" I asked. A group of them quickly ran toward me.
These are from Deus Ex machina. But monsters like them shouldn't exist any longer! Deus Ex Machina was destroyed two years ago!
This doesn't make any sense!
It all seemed to make sense…
You've taken away everything…
"Damnit…what the hell…fine whatever!" I yelled as I took Airget-lamh into my hands.
It doesn't make sense!
It doesn't!
And these monsters are weak to Ice. That just great…
And I can't deal without…
"A…Accelerator!" I yelled as I raced toward the monsters.
These pieces of crap…can't stop me now. Not when I am this close!
I try to see the good in life…but good things in life are hard to find…
"Get…Get out of my…way!" I yelled as I hit the last jabberwocky down.
My past…
And my future…
I…exist for only the reason I wish too.
And…I wish to exist for her.
I'll blow it away, blow it away…
Can we make this something good?
I slowly put my Arms away as I tried to catch my breath.
I think I over did it.
But…I don't get it. What the hell is going on?
Well I'll try to do it right this time around…
It's not over…
"Is? Is something happening again?" I asked myself.
I didn't know.
Would…she even know…the answer to that?
Who knows…but no matter what. I have to find her, I thought as I took off running again.
Why…do things feel the same as they did two years ago?
Nothing changed huh?
I'll try to do it right this time around…
It's not over…
We stop Beatrice…and what did we get for it? A price on are heads.
We are seen as monsters that killed the ark of destiny's leader. Not hero who saved all of Filgaia from the dream demon Beatrice.
Everything is so…messed up.
There's a part of me that's dead and in the ground…
Soon I could hear footsteps getting closer and closer. I quickly hid. Could it be…Sara? I wondered.
But soon I saw it wasn't. I couldn't believe how I saw.
"You sure she's in here…Dario?" Romero asked. "Of course, I'm sure! Now we can't mess up! Remember we told the 'boss' we found her!" Dario quickly said. "Yeah I know. I mean how hard could this be! She by herself! Catching her should be super easy!" Romero quickly said.
These jokers are still around?!
Wait…catch her? Are they after Sara?
This love is killing me…
But you're the only one…
"Yeah well…let's do it!" Dario yelled soon the two jokers disappeared.
Damnit. I have to hurry and find Sara before they do!
--
A bit later…in the inner part of the ruins.
"Wow…this place is so huge! I have been here for hours now." I slowly sighed. "I still haven't found anything. This is disappointing." I whispered to myself. Before I knew it…I came to a dead end. "Huh? Uh…opps…this way was a dead end as well. I wish I had a map or something…I'm only getting lost in here." I said talking to myself.
It's not over…
I've taken all I can take…
"There she is!" I heard a male's voice yell. "Yep!" another one yelled. "What?" I asked as I slowly turned around.
"Romero? And Dario? What in the world are you two doing here?" I asked them. "That all you can ask? After not seeing us for two years?! Talk about being cold!" Dario yelled.
And I cannot wait…
We've wasted too much time…
I felt my eye twitch a bit as I looked toward the two.
I could remember why I didn't like them. They are just jokers as drifters.
"We are on a mission here." Romero slowly said. "I see…well then you can leave and finish your mission." I said waving my hand toward the two of them. "Sorry. But we cannot do that." Dario said with a grin across his face.
Being strong, holding on…
Can't let it bring us down…
"What?" I asked.
Jet quickly doubled his speed as he ran. He felt it. A bad feeling…and it worried him.
"Our mission is to return with you! Sara Lynn Maxwell…or should I say Princess of Filgaia?" Romero asked me.
I stood there giving them a shock look.
Princess of…what?
"You're crazy. I am no Princess. Where the hell would you get a crazy idea like that? I asked them. "Are boss said you is. Boss is never wrong about this kind of thing." Dario told me as he pulled out his Arms.
They're boss…they couldn't mean?
No! No way…it couldn't be.
Because…he's dead.
My life with you means everything…
So I won't give up that easily…
"You're boss…you're not talking about?" I started to ask backing up a bit. "We only call one person boss! And that person is…Janus Cascade!" Dario yelled.
No…there's just…
No way!
He can't be alive!
Siegfried took his life.
"But that's…that's importable! The demon knight…Siegfried took his life! He can't be alive!" I quickly yelled. "That what we thought! But we both saw him with our own eyes!" Romero told me.
I'll blow it away, blow it away…
Can we make this something good?
"That enough talking with her. Let just do what we came here for." Dario quickly said nodding toward Romero. They…think they can take me back that easy?
I quickly pulled out my arms and pointed it at them. "Whoa! That's right! I forgot she had an Arms!" Dario yelled. "It would be easier on yourself if you just came peacefully." Romero told me. "You think I would come…peacefully to see…a boss as crazy as yours?!" I yelled. "Think again!" I yelled as I fired a shot toward the two of them. "Whoa! Why does boss always like the crazy women?" Dario asked Romero. "How should I know?"
Cause it's all misunderstood…
Well I'll try to do it right this time around…
This isn't a problem. These guys are jokers. I just have to do some damage to them then I'll make a break for it. I quickly kept on shooting toward them. As things stood now…I would be out of here in ten minutes.
But I don't get it.
How did Janus live?
And why is he after me?
Let's start over…
I'll try to do it right this time around…
I just don't…I started to think as I quickly coughed up blood. I slowly looked down at my hand. "No…not now…" I whispered to myself. I was not feeling well again. The room felt like it was spinning.
"Yo Romero. Something wrong with her!" Dario quickly said. "I see that." Romero quickly said. "What do we do?" Dario asked. "Nothing. She will be easier to grab this way." Romero said as I felt myself fall to the ground.
Why now?
Why?
It's not over…
There's a part of me that's dead and in the ground…
"Grab her!" Dario said as I heard the two of them getting closer and closer. But…I couldn't even lift my Arms.
Why at a time like this?
Why?
They soon stopped before me. I could hear them getting closer and closer. But just as one of the pair was about to grab my hand I heard a shot fired. "What the hell?" Dario asked looking behind him toward the doorway. "Step away from her." A male's voice said.
This love is killing me…
But you're the only one…
"What? Don't butt in! This is none of yours business!" Dario yelled to the male. Another shot was fired. "I told you to step away from her. I will not ask nicely again." The male's voice said again.
I could see someone covered by a brown robe. I couldn't tell what the person looked like under it. I only could see black jeans and shoes.
Slowly Romero and Dario backed away from me. The robed person quickly ran over to the front of me. "Who are you?" I asked. "We don't really have times for questions. Can you still fight?" The robed person asked me. "Yes, I should be alright." I told him slowly getting to my feet again.
It's not over…
We can't let this get away…
"Good. I'll help you." He told me. "But this isn't your fight! You don't have to do that!" I cried. "I…I want to help. Plus people like these two give drifters a bad name." He quickly told me. "Alright…then please help me." I whispered to the robed person. He quickly nodded to me. "Oh boy. Now what Romero?" Dario asked. "Now what? Even with another here. We still must bring that girl back with us or boss will be pissed." Romero quickly said. "Yeah true. But now…we have to deal with two!" Dario yelled.
Let it out, Let it out…
Don't get caught up in yourself…
"…These guys are jokers." The robed person whispered to me. "you're telling me…" I said with a sigh.
Let it out…
"How hard could it be? It's only even now!" Romero yelled.
Ten minutes later…
"Oh no! Run for it!" Dario yelled. The two quickly raced out of the room.
It's not over…
I slowly shook my head watching them run for it. "Losers…" I quickly said with a sigh.
We'll try to do to it right this time around…
It's not over…
Slowly I turned toward the robed person. "Thank you for your help. I was starting not to feel well…and those losers when after me at that point." I explained to him. "Think nothing of it. Really I was just passing by the room when I heard yelling." He told me. "Ah, I see…oh I didn't get your name…" I quickly said. "Oh…I'm J…" He quickly cut himself off.
"What?" I asked.
I have been searching for two things.
One answers about the demons.
And the other…
"Adam. My name is…Adam." He quickly told me.
I have been searching for a person named Adam Kadmon.
Could this person be him?
