Old Razz Finds Symbol of Hope
"Aw, such a lovely day to pick some fresh berries, right Broom?" An old lady asked her broom as she walks through the forest, talking to her broom.
This old lady called Madame Razz, no one on Etheria knows much about her and even to those who do have either forgotten or passed away due to her being strangely more than a thousand years old woman.
"Oh, I wonder if I should make something different than my usual pies? Perhaps some cupcakes though I'm not sure if I have any sugar." Razz tried to think of what to bake today.
She walk past some trees until she arrives at a large ruined structure sight of what appears to be a building made of crystals and seems to be some advance technology, but she doesn't really care about that as she only came here to pick some fresh berries that are in this season. Just as she was about to pick out one berry, she heard footsteps and saw a woman holding something in one arm walking so weak that she could fall at any moment.
"Must… must get him… somewhere… safe…" The woman panted.
"Oh dear, that looks troubling." Razz said as she walks toward the woman.
"Are you alright, dearie?" Razz asked.
"Please, help me…" The woman begged and her legs final gave out as Razz hold the woman in her arms.
"Easy, you don't look like a spring chicken anymore. Although, neither do I." Razz joked.
"The… the Horde, are they still following me?" The woman asked worrying.
"No dearie, you are in the Whispering Woods. No Horde will find you here." Razz answered, comforting the woman.
"That's good to hear, but I'm afraid I don't have much time." The woman said.
Razz look down at the woman's right side of the torso seeing it stain with so much blood and her colors are becoming pale, the old woman knew this woman's life is far beyond saving and there is nothing she can do to help her.
"At least, they didn't hurt my son." The woman showed the thing she has been carrying in her arm is a baby boy who is sound asleep.
"Such tragedy, those Horde would take everything away even the life of one who are parents leaving the child all alone." Razz sighed, gently stroking the baby's head.
"His name is… Deku, he is only one years old. Please, please care for Izuku and make sure he lives a good life." The woman begged as she hands her baby son to Razz.
Razz looks down at the baby who is starting to wake up showing his emerald eyes seeing the old woman for the first time, the reaction is a smile and a little giggle as Izuku raise his tiny hand to Razz's face as she smiles back at him.
"Tell me, dearie, what is your name?" Razz asked.
"I'm Inko, my husband was Hisashi… he fought in the Rebellion with great courage before he was killed not too long ago. He always said about wanting to be a hero, I wonder if Izuku will become like that." Inko looked at her son stroking his cheek with her fingers.
"I can already tell this boy will do great things for Etheria, perhaps beyond that." Razz believed.
"That actually sounds wonderful, please raise Deku to be a good boy and to help others as well." Inko asked one more time as she can feel her life fading.
"I will, you can count on Madam Razz to watch over this little one." Razz promised.
"Thank you." Inko smiled and her hand fell on the ground.
Inko has died, leaving her son in the care of Madam Razz as Deku cries if as he knew his mother is never coming back.
"Sleep well, Inko, may we see each other again in the next life." Razz prayed for dead woman's soul to be in Heaven reuniting with her husband so they can watch over Izuku together.
"Come now, child, Madam Razz will take good care of you from now on. And who knows, maybe you'll be able to meet Maria someday, she's a good friend." Madam Razz said at the still crying Izuku.
Madam Razz got back to picking berries and headed back home with her new adopted grandson starting a new life of parenthood, and the start of a fated counter.
"You know, I get the feeling you and Maria will do goo together." Razz said.
(Seven Years Later)
Madam Razz is seen doing a little swiping in front of her little hut while humming a song that she just thought of in her head having a nice day.
"Grandma Razz!" A little boy's voice called out.
Razz turn her head to little Deku grown a little bigger with head full of his green hair as he is eight years old, he wears a light green shirt with black shorts and red shoes. He run toward her carrying a basket full of berries that he was picking out for the day and he seems to be more excited as the reason is not about the berries.
"Look, look, I picked out some fresh berries just like you told me to." Deku showed the berries to her.
"Yes, they all look very good. Good job, Deku." Razz patted her adopted grandson's head.
"So, does that mean you'll take me someplace outside of the Whispering Woods now?" Deku asked hoping she would keep her promise.
"Well, consider how much berries you brought back… okay, we'll go on a fieldtrip." Razz nodded making Izuku shout cheering.
"So, where are we going to go? A huge city, the ocean, a village, a secret headquarters of a superhero?" Deku asked exciting.
"Hmm, let me think…" Razz started thinking of any place she could take Deku to, somewhere not too dangerous but not too boring either. Then an idea came to her head as a firefly shines its light over her head.
"Okay, Madam Razz know just the place to take you, little one." Razz smiled.
"Yay!" Deku excited.
"Now, go pack some snacks. We'll be leaving soon." Razz said.
Deku nodded and quickly made his way into the hut finding his backpack and putting some food like apples, some berries, and bottle of juice. Seeing that he got everything he need for the trip; he closes his backpack and ran outside where his adopted grandma is waiting for him using her magic to swirl her broom in the air until Deku came back.
"So, what place are we going to visit?" Deku asked curious.
"Well, knowing how much of a smart boy you are, I believe this place would tickle your fancy. I think the place is called Drei or was it Driel, we'll find out once we get there." Razz stated.
The two started walking together through the woods as Deku is excited to be out of the Whispering Woods for the first time in ten years, he always thought what the outside world would look like seeing the different places and different things with his own two eyes as he only manage to see something outside of the woods like tall mountains and a long path. As they reach the edge of Whispering Woods, Deku gasps when seeing the landscape being a big wasteland barely seeing any plant life around and saw one broken down tank on the left.
"I know, dearie, what the Horde has done to the land destroying things what they cannot control and just take what they want." Razz sighed sadly.
"How could they do such a thing?" Deku asked, picking up a dead leaf and it shatters in his palm.
"Their cruelty keeps on making others suffer and the princesses who once worked together to protect our world, but now they only care for themselves and their kingdom. Including the current princesses who are probably around your age or a little more." Razz explained.
"But why, the princesses must know how much damage the Horde has been doing to our world." Deku asked. He learned about the Horde a few years ago after he came across a destroyed village with Razz and she told him about the Horde as well.
"There was an accident that caused the princesses the disband their alliance and never involve themselves with each other ever since, but I believe the day the princesses will join together by a great hero who will bring peace back to Etheria." Razz stated fateful.
"Like Maria?" Deku asked.
"Like Maria." Razz nodded.
"I always like that story, especially about the She-Ra part you always talked about." Deku complimented his grandma's story time.
"Oh, trust Madam Razz, you will meet She-Ra one day. I know it." Razz grinned. It almost sounds like she can predict the future, but Deku doesn't think she has that kind of power besides Telekinesis and being able to live for a really, really long time.
(Dryl)
"Wow, we're really high up." Deku commented as he and Razz are walking together on the side of a mountain.
"Yes, I visited this place sometime ago seeing as it was starting to become a kingdom." Razz mentioned.
They walk on the path and along the way, they see a man holding up a device like he's trying to find some kind of signal or something.
"Excuse sir, are you from Dryl?" Deku asked getting the man's attention.
The man a tall man of an average build, with notable wrinkles on his forehead and defined nasolabial folds and tear troughs. He has small sky-blue eyes and short, unruly honey brown hair with two prominent tufts curving outwards from the top of his forehead, a short goatee on his chin and wide-rimmed square glasses on his face. He wears an explorer outfit complete with a hat.
"You could say that, my name is David Shield and I'm a scientist from Dryl." David introduced himself.
"Hello, I'm Deku and this is my grandma Madam Razz. We're here to visit Dryl, it's my first time outside of my home." Deku greeted.
"Is that right, then why don't I escort you two to Dryl so you can see the kingdom yourself." David offered.
"Are you sure, weren't you just doing something right now?" Deku wondered.
"It's fine, I was just about finish anyway. Now, let us go." David gestured them to follow him.
Razz and Deku follow David from behind walking through the path for a few minutes until they see a tall pointy tower surround by a big wall.
"Razz, Deku, welcome to Dryl." David said showing them the kingdom.
"Wow, it's so big!" Deku amazed.
"Wait until you see the inside." David smirked.
They walk to the large gate door that is open and a guard is seen standing by.
"Your majesty, I take it you're done with your scans?" The Watch Guard saluted.
"Yep, everything seems to be normal so far. Oh, and we got a couple visitors too." David showed the guard Deku and Razz.
"Very well, have a nice day, King David." The Guard said.
The three walks into the kingdom and Deku's eyes are widen of shock that he just learned something today.
"YOU'RE THE KING?!" Deku gasped.
"Yeah, sorry I never told you about that. I just don't like being treated like I'm above others, that's not what being a king is about, I use my mind to help my people and our closest friends as well." David explained.
"Does that include fighting the Horde?" Deku asked.
David became silent as his eyes is covers by the white shine of his glasses.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ask that!" Deku apologized.
"It's fine, I was just remembering the horrible things the Horde have bone to Etheria. And to answer your question, yes, I have been helping the Rebellion to fight against the Evil Horde, but we have only been focusing on defense than fighting back." David explained.
"Why don't you fight back?" Deku asked.
"Well, the leader of our Rebellion kinda gave up fighting after happened years ago but we still protect innocent people." David answered.
"Papa!" A girl called out.
"Oh, Melissa." David smiled, seeing his daughter.
David's daughter, Melissa has wavy blonde hair that is tied into a ponytail and aqua-blue eyes. She wears a red-pink dress shirt with white pants underneath and brown shoes.
"Papa!" Melissa jumped into her father's arm as he holds up her.
"Hey Melissa, everything doing well while I was gone?" David asked.
"Yes sir, but we have a problem." Melissa informed, then she saw the old lady and a young boy next to her dad.
"Papa, are they new to the kingdom?" Melissa asked, pointing at them.
"Yes, they are. This here is Madam Razz and her grandson, Deku." David introduced them as he put Melissa down.
"Hello, it's nice to meet you, Princess." Deku bowed.
"No need to be so formal, you can just me Melissa. I hope you enjoy your visit in Dryl." Melissa smiled.
Then suddenly they heard an explosion coming from the Crypto Castle fortress.
"What the heck was that?" David shocked.
"Oh, that's right, I almost forgot! Papa, Entrapta and Mei are messing around in the lab again!" Melissa informed.
"Seriously, I keep telling those two not to take their experiments to the extreme." David pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Is that them coming down with a parachute?" Deku pointed up at the two girls coming down slowly.
"And that little sister is the reason why you should never try to make atom bombs, we were lucky to it didn't destroy the whole fortress." The older girl said cover in smoke dust.
"Yeah, lesson learned." The shorter girl laughed, also cover in smoke dust.
The two land right in front of the four, they are Entrapta and Mei Shield, also daughters of King David.
Entrapta, the oldest daughter, is a short and stocky woman with olive skin, magenta eyes, and long, lilac-colored hair, which she can move and control at will like a limb as they are take her parachute off. She wears a purple long sleeve shirt with a breaker on front and green chemicals inside, brown-red pants, and violet shoes. Breasts sizes: CC-cup.
Mei, the youngest daughter, has salmon pink hair, which is generally shoulder-length and her eyes are wide and sloped upwards with some notably long upper eyelashes, their irises yellow with a cross in the centre, making them look somewhat like scope lenses. She wears a dark-blue shirt, black skirt, and pink shoes.
"Girls, what have I told you about blowing up the lab?" David scolded.
"Oh, hello dad, did you get any good data?" Entrapta asked.
"Don't change the subject!" David yelled.
"Hey, are you guys outside from Dryl?" Mei asked Deku.
"Don't ignore me, young lady!" David yelled again.
While David scold his daughters save Melissa, a large part of the structure from the tower starting to crack as it is about to fall at any moment now.
"And Entrapta, don't forget you're going to be the next ruler of Dryl as the oldest Princess, you need to take responsibility for your actions and set a better example for your sisters." David lectured.
"You said that science is about taking risk." Entrapta pointed out.
"But you also must be careful or else someone might hurt because of that recklessness." Melissa stated.
"I'm sure it would have been okay." Mei said.
"Listen Mei, you"
Melissa never got to finish her sentence they heard hear a loud crack sound as they look up with their eyes widen of a large debris falling toward them, the people around them were becoming scared as they try to run away.
But something unexpected happen to Deku, his heart was racing, his blood rushing, and then he started glowing light green aura with electric sparks. His body move of its own free will shot Deku up to the debris much to everyone's shock and the next thing he knew is hold up his fist and shouted a single word.
"SMASH" Deku punched the large stone into dust saving everyone, then fell unconscious as his body fall.
"Razzle Dazzle!" Razz chanted using her magic to pull Deku toward her and slowing down his fall.
"Whoa, what just happened? How did he do that? Has he always have that?" Mei asked a bunch of questions.
"My, this seems to be something unexpected. Mind if I do a little test on him?" Entrapta asked holding up a scalpel. With her hair.
"Entrapta!" Melissa shouted.
"That power, it was just like…" David paused as what Deku did reminded him of someone who knew years ago.
"(Toshi… could this be your legacy?)" David thought asked.
