Morocc is a city that is located right in the middle or Sograt Desert. It is very sandy and most of the buildings are covered in sand. Many people believe that Morocc is an evil city, believing that there are many Assassins lurking in the city. There is a Pyramid which is located north-west of Morocc. The King of Morocc, Orisis, is buried in the heart of the Pyramid. There are many monsters in the Pyramid, and many people are scared to go in. Morocc is known for its Thief Guild.
"YOU BAKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" someone screamed from a room in a hotel in Morocc. The scream was so loud that the whole city shook.
"WHY DID YOU HIT ME FOR???" said another booming voice.
"You two, keep it down," said another voice. This voice had a sweet and calm voice.
"I'm telling you!! She can't go through Assassin training! She has to go through the Thief training!"
"Thief training is SO lousy… MY teaching is better that the Thief Guild…"
"Easy for you to say!! You took one month to complete your Thief training!!! One Month!! Everyone else took an average of 5 years to complete their Thief Training!!! Before you came, the record was 3 years!!!! I even had to take 2 years!!!!!!!!! She won't be able to cope!! She's having a hard time!!"
WHAM
"OW! STOP BASHING ME!!"
"SHE MUST GO THROUGH THE THIEF TEST FIRST!!" the person kept on bashing the other person. "YOU CAN'T TEACH HER LIKE THAT!!"
"AHHHHH!!!!! IT-HURTS!!!!!! HIKARU!!!!!! ARGH!!!!!! HELP ME!!!"
"Ryusuke… how can you teach? O holy father, please forgive that poor lamb, as she is being trained to kill by an Assassin… she doesn't want to follow the path of God, but a path of a murderer… O holy father, should I cleanse that poor lamb's soul? Her hands will be covered in blood, please help her… she is suffering, depressed, and lonely, her soul will bleed away if this goes on… I am unable to help her, O holy father. She's suffering because of a choice which my friend, Ryusuke chose, he NEVER makes the right choice…"
"You are not helping at all!" growled Ryusuke. "STOP PRAYING!!"
Indeed, it was Hikaru, Clarence and Ryusuke. Clarence and Ryusuke are having a big fight.
"FINE!!!" Ryusuke said. "I'll go tell her… tell her…" Ryusuke panted. "Just stop killing me anymore!!"
"Good!" said Clarence. She sat back on a chair.
"Daniel… why are we back here?" asked Luna. They were back in Morocc. All three of them were wearing rather grey ragged clothes. Wearing ragged clothes is a Morocc tradition. Morocc citizens do not believe in dressing nicely. They usually wear comfortable but ragged clothes. The people of Morocc think that Daniel, Rachel, and Luna were citizens of Morocc.
"We need to find Jeffery," said Luna. "He told me yesterday just before he was gone that he wanted to find Nina."
"He really cares about you, Rachel." Daniel put on his sunglasses. "You're really lucky to have someone like him even though you two just met."
"Thanks for helping me…" said Rachel. "But I can find him alone… I'm just troubling the both of you…"
"It's ok," said Luna. "Since me and Daniel are unable to go back to Geffen, we'll help you as much as we can. So, don't worry. That's what friends do right?"
Rachel kept those words in mind. "That's what friends do, right?" It reminded her of Nina. Rachel blinked her eyes a little and took her handkerchief and wiped her face. "I don't need to look for Jeffery."
Luna and Daniel stared at her.
"If he was here, he would tell me to go on and do what I've been wanting to do. The same goes for Nina. I want to explore the world; I want to be strong; I want to search for the Valkyrie."
"Valkyrie? No one in the world can ever find her!" said Luna. "The Valkyrie lives somewhere where no one can enter! Even thought you know where she lives, you be dead once you step into her territory. Rumour has it that her guardians guard her place 24/7. Even if you do manage to find the place, they'll kill you. "
"It doesn't matter," replied Rachel. "I want to look for her. I need her help."
Daniel rolled his eyes at Rachel. "What for?"
"I don't want to leave the way we are now. I don't want everyone to be rivals with each other anymore…"
"You mean… you want to…" stammered Luna.
"I… I want to end the chaos that happened 4000 years ago. I want to bring peace to this world!"
"That's… that's impossible!!" said Daniel.
"You'll need to take on the world!!" said Luna.
"But I cannot stand it anymore… I want to end this… on my own…" said Rachel. She started to walk off. "If I have to do this on my own, I must do it now…" Luna grabbed Rachel's hand and tried to stop her.
"I'm sorry…" Rachel said. She pushed Luna's hand away and walked off. A blue coloured stone was held tightly in her left hand. She threw the stone onto the ground and a jet of light appeared. Then she stepped into the light.
"Warp Portal…" There was a brighter flash and she was gone. Luna and Daniel were stunned. They tried to look for Rachel but there was no sight of her. Daniel turned to Luna.
"What was THAT?" he asked Luna.
"She's gone," said Luna, ignoring her brother. "I wonder where she went… hope she's all right."
"Right…"
"Ow, it felt liked being sucked into a thing or whatever…" Rachel groaned. "Where am I?" she looked around. There were many trees surrounding the area. It was very cool. Rachel felt as if she was in paradise. She placed her bag under a tree, and took out a piece of bread. She took a bite of it.
I wonder what place this is, she thought to herself. Suddenly, a figure passed her and her bread was gone. Rachel turned and saw a young boy holding her piece of bread. The boy saw her and ran off. Rachel took her bag and tried to chase after him.
"Hey, that's my lunch." She tripped and fell into a deep pit. "Oh!" She heard some voices and everywhere was silent.
Her eyes snapped open. She was trapped in a metal bar cage. There were many people looking at her. Some of them were pointing at her, and some looked frightened. Rachel tried to free her by bending the bars with her bare hands but it was too hard.
"Make way, make way!!" Someone said. The people went to a corner and a figure came. He had long black straight hair until his waist. Rachel could see her own reflection through his silvery misty eyes. He looked very surprised when he saw her. One of the people grabbed Rachel's hair and gripped it tight.
"We do not welcome outsiders!!" said the person. But the guy pushed the person's hand aside and he released his grip. The guy bend down and went nearer to Rachel. He took her chin to get a good look at her as Rachel's hair was all over the place. He smiled.
"This girl won't mean to harm us," he said loudly. There were many boos and shots. Another person came to the scene. He was holding a long weapon – a bow. His long purple hair was tied into a ponytail and he looked very handsome.
"Are you sure?" the person said to the person with the black hair. "I mean, this girl came from Prontera? Can she be a spy or something? There have been many spies hanging around Rune-Midgard… can she be one of them?"
"I don't think so. Free her, it's the only thing we can do now."
"What! If the head hears about this, he'll kill us!! This is such a good opportunity for the people of Payon. Prontera will sure-" The person with black hair cut him off before he could finish his sentence.
"She's mine. I want her. I'll report to the head after I'm done with her," he said. Many people cheered, but Rachel wasn't quite pleased though.
I'm his!? What in the world is her going to do on me? Rachel thought. She started thinking. Why does he want her? Maybe he wants her to be his girl, or maybe he wants her to do something, or maybe even…
The guy opened the cage and carried Rachel off. Many people were cheering, and the girls were blushing when they saw him. He blew a kiss to the girls and they felt excited. "Hey! What are you doing to me? Let me go!" Rachel tried to free herself.
He guy then whispered in her ear. "You are mine now. So you'll have to do whatever I say." He smiled. Rachel was dumbstruck as he brought her off.
"Would you like some tea?" the guy asked politely to Rachel. Rachel shook her head. "Water? Orange juice? Soft drink?" she shook her head again and again.
"Why are you keeping me like this?" Rachel asked. She was wearing a pink-whitish Kimono. They were in the guy's house. He was reading the newspaper while drinking tea. It was raining at that time, and it was very cooling. Rachel felt sleepy, but she had to stay alert. The guy kept on looking at her nearly every minute.
"Why do you want me for??" asked Rachel. He was pissing her off.
"Because," he chuckled. "You're so cute and I want you to be my wife."
"WHAT!!??" said Rachel. She stood up and grabbed her Club. "No way! You id-" The guy closed her mouth.
"Ha ha! I'm just kidding!" said the guy, laughing. He offered her some sushi. "Eat," he said. "I got something important to discuss with you."
Rachel took the sushi and ate it. It was delicious. "Do you know me? Where is this place? Why did you capture me for?"
The guy smiled at her. He slid open the side door. Everywhere was full of trees and the buildings were hardly visible. "Welcome to the Mountain city of Payon, Miss Rachel." He shook Rachel's hand. "I'm just a resident here, you see. I'm the head of the Archer Association." Rachel didn't take her eyes off him.
"Aren't you going to tell your name? How do you even know mine?" she asked.
"Well," he replied. "I won't tell you my name and why I know your name, it's a secret." He laughed even louder. "I am only known as 007." What a funny name, thought Rachel.
Tzusuki: I don't know how I suddenly gave a character a weird name, so don't ask. Please R&R or I'll reaaaally feel very sad... Gets very depressed
