Chapter 4: Walk like an Amaran.
Echidna is at bottom of the ravine, searching for Leina, Kevin and John. "So this is where they took off." She said to herself, examining the footprints on the ground which belongs to Eric and Ivan, no doubt trying to save their friends with that strange yellow raft she never seen before.
Her snake returned to her, she crouches down to see if her pet got something. "So you can't sense their scent any further." She said as she stood up as the snake slithered back in its place; an underwear. She looks at the other end of the river. "We shouldn't get too discouraged, its likely that those three are still alive." She said to her pet snake. "Lets just hope that Eric and Ivan manages to catch up and save them."
Ruins of the Amaran Kingdom
Leina is dressed in a different clothing and lying on what appears to be some kind of altar, a woman is casting a spell or enchantment. The woman has black hair that reaches her shoulders and blue eyes, she wears an Egyptian style outfit, an elegant head golden headpiece with a cobra in its center, a jeweled breast plate that reaches only midway through her bust, she wears a striped panties below a cloth in her front and her arms are wrap with a white bandages. This woman is Menace, the Princess of Amara, some known her as the Ancient Princess.
After performing the Enslavement Spell, Melona appears. "Hello Menace, what cha doing." Melona asked.
"Making obedient slaves." Menace replied.
Melona went up to the altar and immediatley recognized Leina. "Hey! Its the whiny wench! Where did you find her?" She then realizes something. "Did you also found two boys with her?" She asked as she remembered watching the Queen's Blade orbs were it shows Leina, Kevin and John falling in the abyss.
It was Setra, Menace's living magic scepter spoked up, gaining Melona's attention. "Yes. I found them floating in the river, I would left those boys behind, but I figure that Mistress Menace would love to have male servants." Setra told her.
Melona turns to Menace. "So did you used that slave spell of yours to turn them in servants?" She asked, as she is planning on getting her revenge on Leina by stealing her boys.
"I did." Menace replied. "But for some reason, my Enslavement Spell isn't working on the two boys." She casts the spell five times already and each for those attempts, the dark spirits seemed to not want to enter their bodies, and the few that tried ends in being destroyed by some unknown force when they touch the boys.
"Really. where are they now?" Asked Melona.
'In the guest room. I was planning in convincing them once they're fully conscious." Menace said, there are many ways for people to become her faithful servant. When she take a good look on Kevin and John she saw how very handsome they are, when the Enslavement Spell isn't working she gives up on the spell and plans on different approach, by promising them wealth or make them her servants by force.
"Guest we have to wait for them to awake then."
In the middle of the desert
Tomoe and Shizuka is wandering through the desert, trying to find civilization, oasis, a well, anything that will shelter them from the raging heat and get a refreshing drink. "It's SOOOO hot!" Shizuka whined.
"Just bear with it Shizuka. It won't be long until we find a place to rest." Tomoe said to her ninja friend.
Before she could say any further, they heard two boys talking. "Are you sure we're going the right way. I don't know why the GPS is pointing in that direction, I thought they're being drifted by the river."
"I know, but chances are, someone must've found them in the river and take them to their place."
The two women heard the familiar voices, they went over the dune and saw two boys, each carrying two backpacks.
"Eric and Ivan." Tomoe said, remembering the boys from the broadcasting orb.
"So what should we do?" Shizuka asked her.
"Go and see if we can help." Tomoe replied as she went to the boys. "Hello there!" She shouted
Eric and Ivan turns to look at person who called out to them. "Yes! Desert people that we can ask directions." Ivan said.
"Um Ivan. These people doesn't look like desert people. Their garb looks more like japanese than desert clothes." Eric said, recognizing the Japanese shrine priestess outfit. He also saw the sword on her back, which means she's a fighter.
"Really?!" Ivan take a closer look at her. "Oh, you're right. And that one looks like the kunoichis from all the ninja movies." Tomoe and Shizuka were confused by the word 'Movie'.
Eric went to introduce themselves. "Hi, I'm Eric Hassleberry, and this is-"
"Ivan Emanuel." Tomoe Finished. "We already know who you boys are. We saw you and that boy Kevin fought Claudette on Queen's Blade orb."
"My name is Tomoe and this is Shizuka." she said.
"Its nice to meet you two." Ivan greeted as they shake hands.
"So everyone in this country saw our fight?" Eric asked, Tomoe gave a nod for a reply.
"Wow! That means we're famous." Ivan said. "Sweet! We've been here for a few days and we're already popular."
Shizuka was amused by his enthusiasm. "No kidding. I heard a lot about Claudette the Thundercloud General, that she's one of the strongest warriors in this continet. And the fact you and Kevin fought Claudette to a stalemate, is reason enough to gain fame." She said as she is interested in the boys.
"So anyway." Tomoe said changing the subject. "Where are you boys going? I thought you're looking for your friends near the river." She said as she saw what happened.
Eric show them the GPS gadget. "We are. Until this GPS is pointing in that direction where our friends are." Eric said, pointing the way. "My guest is that someone saw them floating in the river and take them there. I hope they're okay."
Tomoe and Shizuka were curious about this GPS thing in his hand. "GPS? What is that." Shizuka asked as she has no idea what that is.
"Global Positioning System." Eric answered, he went on and explains it function, he shows them his and Ivan's watch and said that in contains a tracker chip, in case they got lost or someone got lost, they can use the device to find their friend or find a way back home.
Due to the fact that there is no satellite in this world resulting in the GPS can't mapped the Continent, therefore Eric is using its second function as a compass like tracker were it will point to the direction where the signal from the tracker chip is coming from, So Eric just tell them about the second function.
The two women are amazed by their gadget since they never heard about it before, they think just how useful to them the GPS, since they always got lost, a lot.
"Hey. Do you mind if we can tag along." Shizuka asked as she has a dozens of question to asked them. Tomoe was curious too about the boys and wanted to travel with them.
"Sure thing." Eric replied.
"Yeah, and maybe you can show me one of those ninja moves." Ivan said excitedly.
"If you don't mind, do you have any drinks? I'm dying of thirst here." Shizuka said, very dehydrated.
Eric grabbed a bottle with a blue liquid inside from his bag. "Here, this will do it." He said as he hand out the drink.
"What is it." Shizuka asked, curious about drink he was giving her.
"Its Gatorade, it's a sports drink, its great in quenching your thirst during a very hot weather. Try it."
Accepting the drink, Shizuka first take a small sip, once she tasted it, she then take three big gulp."Where did you get this, it taste good."
"In a place you'll find it hard to believe." Eric said as they continued their journey.
The group has been traveling for hours now, during walking they talked and they learned alot from each other. Eric and Ivan learned that Tomoe and Shizuka from a land known as Hinomoto, a place that is very similar to Japan in their world.
They also learned that Tomoe is a Shrine Priestess from the Masakado Shrine, she tells them the tragic event days ago were the Kouma ninjas attacked the shrine, she is the only on left, she suspected the culprit behind the attack are the corrupted officials in the royal court, she was given a quest by the Head Priestess to participate in the Queen's Blade tournament and to become queen so she can rid the country of corruption.
And then there's Shizuka, surprisingly, she's used to be a member of Kouma ninjas, the same group who attacked the shrine, she defected from the group though which is fortunate, she and Tomoe became good friends after her defection.
Tomoe and Shizuka also get to know more about the boys, the boys explained that they comes from a different world, a world with technologies far advance then there own. Naturally both Tomoe and Shizuka were skeptic about it but that change when they showed them the advance technologies like the PSP,Ipad, stereo and an Iphone which Ivan used to take a selfie with the two warrior women, they even show them videos were they saw airplane and cars. They also told them about their life as a boyband were they are very famous for their talent in singing.
Then went to explained how they got here, and the events from there on out. "So you four have been hiking on the mountains and you found this 'military experimental teleporter'." Shizuka said.
"And this 'machine' is activated and you've been accidentally get sucked in and sent here." Tomoe finished, amazed by everything they said, even this teleporter prove powerful to create a passageway between their world and the Continent.
"You got that right." Eric said.
"You said you have millions of admires and fans because of your talents. I wanted to hear what kind of music you guys sing." Shizuka said very curious as to how good they are.
"We'll always sing together, other with different tones in singing." Eric stated. "But we can do solos and duets."
"Oh! I know what song to sing."Ivan said as he is the first one to sing.
For you I'd write a symphony

Is she out there? Is she out there?
Is she out there? Is she out there?
I just need somebody to love
Once they've finished, Tomoe clapped her hands. "That was amazing"
"I'm impressed." Shizuka said never hear anything liked that before, she liked the way they sing and the lyrics is simply awesome.
"Glad you two liked it." Ivan said.
"And that's just the tip of the iceburg." Eric stated, which makes the two women think that they have many other songs, Shizuka wanted to hear more of it.
When they get on top of dunes, they saw a huge ruins of an ancient civilization. Eric's GPS is pointing on the ruins which means their friends is in those ruins. "They're in there? That can't be right." Eric said out loud, finding it hard to believe someone would live in a ruins.
"Maybe the people who rescued your friends lives their." Tomoe said to him.
"Guess we'll have to find out." Eric said, unsure of it.
They walked through the ruins trying to find their friends, but the place is obviously deserted. "Um. Guys, I think there's something wrong with those cloud." Ivan pointed to the sky, unnatural dark cloud is covering the sky.
"Be careful! I sense a wicked presence here." Tomoe warned. "Quickly! We must..." Tomoe was interrupted when a strong sandstorm suddenly started, blowing Shizuka, Eric and Ivan away.
"Shizuka!" Tomoe cried out when she saw them blown away, she couldn't do anything because of the sandstorm, she suddenly sense someone and quickly turned to the direction the presence was, she saw Leina standing on top of a ruined statue, she is surrounded by a strange and evil aura. "It's that Leina?! Her aura is the same as the sandstorm." Tomoe said to herself.
"Kneel before the power of Amara if you wish to live." She said as she draw her sword and charges at Tomoe.
With Kevin and John
Kevin opened his eyes and scanned the room, she saw John laying on a bed. "Hey John. You're awake?" He said to him.
Hearing Kevin's voice, John groaned and slowly wake up. "I am now." He replied. "Man that was a nasty fall." He hold his head to feel if there's any injury, thankfully he's fine.
Kevin sat up and takes a good look in the room. "Where are we?" He asked.
"Hello?" John called out. He then saw the ancient Egyptian like writings in the wall. "Egypt? We're in Egypt?!" He touched the writings, He and Kevin didn't notice the Runes on John's head are started to glow faintly
"So you're saying we're back in our world?" Kevin asked as he observed the room, surely enough the room is filled Egyptian hieroglyphics.
"No, we're not. We're still in the Continent." He said as he reads the writings. "This place is called the Kingdom of Amara." He said as he continues reading. "Now this is an interesting history, according to this writings; the Kingdom of Amara was destroyed thousands of years ago. The princess, Menace is destine to inherit the throne, but the princess was too distracted by her luxurious lifestyle, leaving all the politics and responsibilities to her adviser named Anarista her loyal vassal. But Anarista is a spy from a neighboring country, Menace was too gullible to fall for her tricks and by the enemy attacked, it was all too late, Anarista quickly joined the enemy and kills all the citizens of Amara. Menace suffers an untimely death."
"Wow. I didn't know you can read this writings." Kevin said as he didn't know that John can read ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics.
John thought it was strange too since he didn't studied anything Egyptian before.
Before he could say anything the door opened and a girl in a pink dress entered with a tray of food. "Have any sweet dreams?" She said as she places the tray on a small table near them. The girl in question wears a very provocative pink outfit, she has pink hair and blue eyes, but what caught the boy's attention was the rabbit ears, and the hair in a shape of a hand covered her breast. "My name's Melona." She said. "And you don't have to tell me your names. Everyone already know who you boys are."
"Wait, what? How?"
"Your fight with Claudette was broadcasted." Melona answered. "You're pretty famous now."
"Wow. We became famous just by fighting Claudette." Kevin said. "Well that escalated quickly, I mean, we didn't even win."
"No man has ever fought Claudette and live. You may not win but you did fight her to a stalemate. That's enough to gain some fame." Melona stated.
"Okay. Thats sound reason enough." John said.
"You know, I can't help but ask; Whats with the bunny ears?" Kevin asked.
"My what?"
"Those things on your head." He said pointing at her head.
"Oh you mean this, its my style."
John notices something odd about her. "Your ears seemed connected, and you kinda glow. What are you?"
"I'm a slime, I change forms. I was called the Protean Assassin."
"Change forms, can you give us a demonstration?" Kevin asked.
"Sure, why not." She transformed into a perfect replica of John. "Scared?" She even copied John's voice. She was expecting them to be scared since many people fear her, she didn't expect however that instead of frighten faces, they have amused smiles on their faces.
"That was incredible." John remarks.
Kevin was more impressed than John. "Oh man, that was awesome! You got an amazing power there."
This surprises Melona, no one has ever compliment her abilities before. "Um. Glad you like it."
Kevin then remembered something. "Leina! Where's Leina? Did your friends also found her?" Kevin asked her, very worried.
"You don't have to worry. Leina's fine." She lied since Leina is now Menace's slave. "She is with my friend. I'll take you two to her, follow me." She said as they exit the room.
Moments later they reached the throne room were they saw Menace laying on an Egyptian couch. "Oh! You all awake." She greeted, happy to see them. "I see that you two are doing fine."
"Yeah, thanks for asking." John said blushing at her outfit. "I'm John P. Truesdale."
"And I'm Kevin C. Ridgewell."
"I'm princess Menace the heir to the Amaran throne." She introduced.
The boys were surprised when they hear her name. "Wait a minute! Isn't princess Menace died thousands of years ago?" Kevin said out loud, remembering the story that John read on the wall.
"I did." Menace replied. "And I was resurrected , and now I am planning to restore the Amaran Kingdom to its former glory." She said in a dramatic villain like tone. "My kingdom was destroyed because I was betrayed, I'm enslaving people so it won't happen again. I already enslaved Leina with my spell."
"What!" Kevin cried.
"Wrong..." John muttered, this caught their attention. "You're doing it wrong! Do you really think your plan will work? Enslavement will just earn you more enemies!"
"But its necessary to..." She said until John cut her off.
"It'll end up in a rebellion and another Betrayal! Trust me, it will." John assured. "I read some bits of history of your kingdom, and I know for the fact that you were not betrayed." What John said surprising Menace. "Your 'faithful servant' Anarista didn't betray you, truth is that she was never loyal to you from the start, in fact she is a spy from another nation, you unintentionally let this happened, you're the reason why your kingdom fell."
After he said this, they can sense the dark aura from Menace. "Are you saying that it was MY fault that my kingdom was in ruins." She said in a dark tone.
Melona watches the drama from the sidelines, interested in what would happened next.
John gathers his strength and speaks up. "Yes! Think about it! Do you even at least did some of the responsibilities you're entrusted to?" He asked her.
This got Menace thinking, as much as she hate to admit it, he has a point, she didn't do most of her duties as royal princess and the future queen, she give all of those duties and responsibilities to her advisors, mainly Anarista. "Then what do you want me to do to gain servants and rebuild my kingdom if I'm not allowed to used enslavement?" She asked.
"It's not that hard but it's not easy either, find people who are WILLING to serve you, earn their trust. Start from the bottom, try to look out for enemy spies and focus on your responsibilities and your people's health, gather and manage your resources wisely." John advised. "It'll be a slow progress but it will be worth it."
"I'll think about." Menace said, although she got to admit, John had some a pretty good advices, maybe she can convince him to be her advisor.
Kevin then realizes something. "Wait! Where is Leina?"
"I think I know where she is." Melona said gaining everyone's attention. They turn to where Melona's looking at, they saw the Queen's Blade broadcasting orbs showing Leina fighting a woman in what appears to be a Japanese shrine priestess clothing.
After watching this, Kevin turned to Menace. "Okay can you please free Leina from your spell."
"There is only one way." She replied as she went to a chess, she took out a gold medallion. "Here. this is all you need, all you have to do is pressed this on her head or chest and it does all the rest." She hands him the medallion.
"Thanks, thank you very much. C'mon John, lets go!" He rushes towards the exits.
"Got to go. And remember what I said."John said as he exits the room.
Melona went to Menace' side. "They're an interesting bunch. Don't you think?" She said to Menace.
"They're sure are." Menace replied.
"I liked the blonde one, what do you think?"
"I think I possibly found my new king." She reply.
Kevin and John were running through the halls finding Leina. When they take a left turn, they accidentally bumped into someone, they identify that it was the same woman who fought Leina accompanied by Nanael. "Kevin and John!" She said.
"Sorry about, um, who are you?" John asked.
"I'm Tomoe. I already met your friends Eric and Ivan."
"They're here?! Where?" Kevin asked.
"We got separated by a sandstorm, my friend Shizuka is with them." She told them. "You don't have to worry, Shizuka is a skilled fighter."
"Well I hope they're alright."
Shizuka, Eric and Ivan
Shizuka was unconscious laying on the stone floor. Someone splashes some water on her face causing her to wake up. "Its working! Ivan, do that again." She isn't fully awake. Ivan has water in his palms and splashes on her face.
"I'm awake!" She said as he sat up. She looks around her surroundings. "How did we end up in here?"
"Don't know. We just woke up in here." Eric told her. "And we saw this thing groping you and saying things only a pervert could say." He points toward a tied up ornate black staff with a cat like head.
Shizuka look pissed when she heard that.
"So what now?" Ivan asked.
"We keep moving. And bring that stick thing." Shizuka said, with the staff giving an angry muffled voice.
Shizuka pick the staff up and removed the gag. "Alright talk. What is going in here?"
"And what did you do to Leina?" Eric asked since he heard the the scepter talking about Leina while he was toying with Shizuka.
"Alright I'll talk! And my name is Setra and I'm a living scepter by the way."
"Good! give us all the info we need, and a way out of here." Shizuka said with an intimidating voice.
The other group were walking carefully through the hallways, until John stepped on a stone tile that activated a trap, releasing giant boulders that rolling straight at them. "RUN!" Kevin shouted as they run like there's no tomorrow.
Tomoe spotted a alley that seemed large enough for them to fit in. "Take cover in there!" She said to the others.
Nanael was first to squeezed through the alley then John and then Tomoe. Kevin has to throw himself so he can fit in the alley, It's a tight squeeze.
Seeing the boulders rolled by, it reminds of a movie. "That trap is sure like one from Indiana Jones." Kevin remarks.
"Indiana Jones? Who's that?" Nanael asked.
"He's an adventurer. Fictional that is." Kevin replied.
"John, what do you think?" He asked but John didn't reply. Due to the tight spot and Kevin's back is in them, he can't look back to his friend. "John?"
The reason why John didn't answer is mostly because he and Tomoe had an accidental kiss. Because Kevin throw himself in to avoid the boulders, this resulted in Tomoe being pushed against John were their lips made contact. they're were so surprised that their brains is having a hard time processing what happened.
Soon enough they snapped from their shock, the two quickly pulled away from each other. "Uh. Sorry about that." John said.
"Don't blame yourself. It's just an accident." Tomoe assured him. Luckily for them, Kevin and Nanael didn't saw what happened.
Kevin notices that there are no longer any boulders rolling by. "Hey, I think the coast is clear." Kevin said as he got out of the tight spot.
The other followed after Kevin. "Just how many traps in this place?" Nanael asked since that is the fifth trap they encounter.
"We should be more careful, we might seriously get hurt if we're not careful." Tomoe said.
They continued on, hoping they are no traps in the way.
Back with Shizuka, Eric and Ivan. With them is Setra who's just finished telling them about Menace's story. "And now my mistress will restore the kingdom from the ashes." The living scepter finished.
"So she plans her kingdom by enslaving people. This won't last long." Shizuka remarks.
Setra got angry by what she said. "Hey! Don't you dare insult my mistress and her goals!"
"I agree with Shizuka here." Eric said gaining their attention. "Enslavement will earn you lots of enemies. She'll doomed her kingdom if she keeps putting everyone in a slave spell."
Their conversation was interrupted when Ivan activated a trap door on the floor, he fell inside and a splash is heard.
"Ivan!" Eric shouted as they went to looked down the trap to see if he's okay.
"OH NO! It's one of those traps with crocodiles or piranha!" Ivan shouted from below making Eric and Shizuka worry. "Oh wait! Pause alarm! They're dead, just skeletons of animals."
Eric and Shizuka sigh in relief knowing that he's fine.
"Guest you need to feed this animals everyday huh." Shizuka said to Setra.
"He's lucky that these animals has been dead for years." The scepter replies.
"Don't worry Ivan! I got some ropes." Eric said as he took some ropes from his backpack.
Soon enough Ivan was out of the crocodile trap, then carry on. It didn't take long before they got in a large room with a bridge were they reunite with some lost friends.
"Shizuka! I'm glad you're okay." Tomoe said.
"Kevin! John! Am I glad to see you." Eric said to them.
Their reunion was cut short when Leina appears from the other side of the bridge and is approaching them. "Leina! Are you okay?" Ivan asked as he approach her.
Tomoe quickly grabbed hold of his arm to prevent him from going further. "Ivan, don't! She's not the Leina you knew!
"She's right. Leina is been possessed." John said to him.
Kevin started walking towards Leina. "Don't worry. I got this."
"Kevin. Be careful." Tomoe said.
"We got your back." John added.
Kevin nods as he approaches Leina. "Leina. Its me Kevin."
"K-Kevin." Leina muttered.
"That's it Leina! Fight it!" Kevin yelled as he readied the medallion in his hand, he charges at her
The dark spirits gain full control of Leina again, making her attack Kevin. Kevin manages to dodged it, but he accidentally dropped the medallion were it fall in the water under the bridge.
"Aw come on!" Kevin whined as he look down in the water.
Leina who is trying to fight it, rushes at Kevin with the blade raised. Kevin saw this and quickly grabbed his shield block her attack.
"Okay! I need some help now!" Kevin shouted as he parry a sword thrust.
Tomoe went to help him while John jumped to the water below. "C'mon! That medallion is the only thing that can save Leina!" John told them.
"Go help him. I'll help Kevin and Tomoe." Shizuka said as she went to help. Eric and Ivan jumped in, trying to find the medallion.
"Wait! What should I do to help?" Nanael asked.
" You just float there and look pretty." Shizuka said as she uses a chain that is attached to her Kusari-gama to wrap Leina to immobilize her.
"That was cool." Kevin compliments.
The possessed Leina accidentally tripped crashing with Kevin, they are on the floor with Leina on top of him were their lips made contact.
Tomoe blushes at the awkward scene, this reminds her moments ago with John, Shizuka and Nanael chuckles although Nanael notices the Rune on Kevin's hand is start to glow, she knows what this means. Kevin blushes madly that this happened, he then felt some warm energy coming from his mouth.
Kevin immediately break the kiss and stood up. Leina screams as the dark spirits comes out from her body. the spirits fly around wildly like a bullet, making holes in the wall, some of them destroys the bridge causing Kevin and Leina to fall in the water below. Tomoe and Shizuka manages avoid the crumbling bridge.
"Are you all right?!" Tomoe asked them.
"Yeah! We're alright." John replied.
"Is Leina still possessed?" Eric asked.
"No. I don't know how but she manage to forced the spirits out from her body." Kevin said who didn't realize that it was his power as a Holy Knight that freed her from the spell.
They didn't notice however, is that a trapdoor at bottom opened, were it starts draining the water, and just their luck, water is pouring from the wall like they're being flushed down, it's like a toilet.
Once they notice the whirlpool in the middle. "Get out of the water!" Eric shouted as they tried to get out.
They're not quick enough they get sucked in, Tomoe tried to help them but Shizuka grabbed hold of her shoulders preventing her from going down there. Nanael fly down and try to help them, grabbing John and Eric's hands, but she ended up being sucked in by the whirlpool instead.
"Lady Tomoe, we should get out of here." Shizuka said urgently as she saw the place crumbling because of the holes.
Tomoe prayed that they're would be okay and hesitantly left.
Later that night.
Menace is watching the full moon. "What a shame. All of them left." She said.
"Forget about them. We can find many more servants, beautiful sexy servants." Setra said pervertly.
"I guess so." Menace reply. She is thinking about what John said. "Setra."
"Yes mistress?"
"Do you believe in 'True Love'." She said as she can't stop thinking about John, a guy with a handsome look, smarts, and with some helpful advices, she blushes every now and then when she remembers their little confrontation, no doubt she's starting to fall for him. If she's patient and with the right motivation, maybe she can convince John to become her top adviser or even better... her king.
