The village of Koraro was almost like a ghost town. Very soon we found a woman hiding. "Stop! Don't hurt my family," cried the woman. "Chill out, ma'am. We don't attend any harm. We're against the Hyskos," I said kindly to the woman. "Did you say 'Hyskos'?" The woman asked. "Yes, ma'am," I said. The woman came out and introduced herself. She was Ogechi. Three of her children came out of her hut. One of them had a cleft palate and it was a boy. That sight surprised my party. "That's one ugly lip," Genis said. Raine popped her brother in the head for saying that. "Genis, that was SO rude of you. That poor child probably has a medical condition or something," Natalia scolded. "I'm sorry, uh…" Genis said to the boy with the cleft palate, but he didn't know his name. "I do accept your apology and my name is Lekan," said the boy with cleft palate. He had a brother and a sister. His brother was Paki and his sister was Nia. Nia was the oldest. She was about 15. Paki was 12. Lekan was 9. "My husband Dakarai has been kidnapped by the Hyskos along with most of the other villagers," Ogechi said. "The Hyskos must have been turning people into monsters," Ryo said. Then the kids freaked out. They spotted something. "What is that thing?!" Nia cried. An exsphere monster appeared in the village by walking in. "Look out!" Ogechi hollered. Then warriors speared the monster to death. And a chief stabbed the monster in its head, killing it. "Chief Emeka," said Ogechi. "We have to fight off whoever's causing the village trouble," Chief Emeka said. We went to the Hysko camp. I we split into groups like we did at the Honolulu Hysko camp. My side even found a torture room. We saw a Hysko nailing a prisoner upside-down on a pentacle. There were more than just a Hysko and a prisoner in there. There were a couple of prisoners being tortured. One of them was brutally dismembered and another one was being injected by something that was very deadly. The injection had killed the prisoner right before my eyes could blink! We killed the Hyskos who were torturing the prisoners. Soon we went to the captive room and freed all of the prisoners there. We soon found Ogechi's husband, Dakarai in the captive room. When he saw Ogechi with my party, she told him that we were going to free him. "Thank goodness you guys are here!" Dakarai said with joy. Then Hyskos came in the room. My party fought off the Hyskos. We killed them and freed all the prisoners, including Dakarai. We lead the prisoners to the exit of the Hysko camp, where we met the rest of my party. After all of the prisoners got out, we found the leader. "Hey, you. What are you doing to these innocent villagers?!" I asked the leader. "I'm Phineas. I was sent to exterminate those fools so I'm a Hysko leader and I'm proud of it," the leader said. "You shouldn't torture of captivate anyone who's innocent," I said. Phineas had a blonde Mohawk with a ponytail. He also had an eye patch. "Prepare to die, fools!" Phineas said to my party. We fought him and we defeated him. Chief Emeka speared Phineas in the heart. Lekan got curious and pushed the self-destruct button. Everyone in my party, Ion, Mieu, Tenebrae, Chief Emeka, and the family got out quickly. I got out, too. The Hysko camp exploded and all of the prisoners were very happy with us. The sun god was setting after the camp blew up. We went back to the village. Raine was a bit disappointed that we couldn't go to the ruins on the same day we fought the Hyskos. When I heard laughing, I got surprised. It sounded like a hyena's. I ran out of Ogechi's hut and saw a pack of hyenas. They started attacking the villagers. "Oh, no," I cried. I grabbed a hyena off of the villager and the hyena started to attack me. Chief Emeka speared the hyena to death. More hyenas came and attacked my party and the village. When Mieu tried to communicate with one of the hyenas, it bit him in the ear and tried to snatch him away for food. "MASTER!" Mieu screamed. Luke came to the rescue and killed the hyena that tried to eat Mieu. Tear came to help Mieu by healing him. She was upset that Mieu got hurt. Mieu was actually bawling. Poor thing. I wanted to comfort him, too, but too many hyenas were attacking the village. Tenebrae didn't know what to do, so he howled, scaring some of the hyenas away. Tear stopped Mieu from crying and he was ready to fight. Mieu breathed a fireball that scared some more hyenas away. "Fire, that's it!" I cried. "What's it?" Sally asked. "Most wild animals might be afraid of fire," I cried. Emeka got the idea and told his villagers to create torches. They obeyed him and scared the hyenas away with the flames. Soon, it started raining. Then a huge hyena jumped on me, attacking me. It was biting at my face. I hollered with fright and scratched at the big hyena. When I scratched it in the face, I escaped from between its legs and I ran. Then the hyena bit my scarf, pulling me down to the ground. I was so scared that I started to flash again. I wound up caterwauling like a bobcat. Then everyone froze and looked at me like I was crazy. The giant hyena backed away from me a bit. A pack of caracals have come. They might have come to the rescue. Thank the gods because the village was completely under attack by hyenas and we needed help. The biggest caracal in the pack of caracals heard my vocalization. It rubbed me in the shoulder. It attacked the giant hyena. The hyenas must have declared war on the caracals because they were fighting. Soon the big hyena was weak from its wounds. Mieu came up to the hyena leader. It spoke cheagle to it and the hyena growled. "The hyena leader says, 'I accept this defeat. But I'm severely injured and I want to live'," Mieu said. The big caracal hissed. "The caracal leader says, 'I should make sure that hyenas never attack the village again. I'm glad we heard that caterwaul for help'," Mieu said. The big hyena laid on its side, heavily breathing. I couldn't look at it without wanting to cry. I stroked it and Raine healed its wounds. The hyena got up, laughing and licking both me and Raine. I was happy that the hyena was happy. When it was morning, we went to the ruins. Raine was in her "ruin mode" again. We walked and looked around the ruins and found the alabaster lotus, but we were stopped by a spiky-haired elf a braided lock. His hair was black. He had a shark tooth collar on. "Well, look who made a bunch of friends," said the elf. "Jack! What are you doing here?!" Ryo cried. "Why, were childhood enemies," said the elf (who I assume is Jack). "Childhood enemies?" I asked. "Duh, stupid girl!" Jack said to me, pulling out a pair of tonfa. "So, you're ready for a fight?" I asked, pulling out my machete. "You know it," Jack said. "I'll have my own back for your sadism," Ryo cried to Jack. We fought Jack until he was defeated. He was very angry when he was defeated. He was so angry he started drooling. 'Oh my gods, this boy's crazy! Could he have rabies?' I thought to myself, referring to Jack. "I'll get you and your friends next time, Ryo Lufti!" Jack screamed. He jumped out of a window and we heard a splashing noise. He must have jumped into a swamp nearby the ruins. "Okay…," Zelos said. "What's HIS problem," Sheena asked Ryo about Jack. "I think Jack must have gone insane. He used to pick on me all of the time, especially when he went crazy," Ryo said. Jack really reminded me of Dist because I think they're both crazy. "I assume that Jack might have a serious mental illness," Jade said, pushing up his glasses. "He reminds me of a shark because of his insanity and he attacks like a shark that's in frenzy," Entari said. "You know him, too?" I asked Entari. "Yes, he used to pick on me, too," he said. "I wonder how he went crazy. I can probably diagnose his problem," Jade said. "You're a doctor and a colonel?" I asked, confused. "Well, I have studied as a doctor," Jade said. "I think Jack had rabies because he was drooling," I said. Then I heard King Tutankhamen's voice again. "Kaede, I'm afraid you're going to have to leave planet Earth to go to Planet Auldrant. You must help someone in Engeve," King Tutankhamen said. Lloyd's group, Ryo, Zeke, Entari, Aizriel, Sally, and I were surprised. Everyone in my party got curious. "How would we go to another planet, do we go outer space?" Sally asked. "No, there's an unusual monolith in the United Kingdom that made us appear on planet Earth," Jade said. "That must be the Stonehenge," Sally cried. I figured that, too.
