Okay! Here it is! Part two of my world gone hay-wire! And it's longer
too **gasp**!

Title: Drakan: Order of the Flame 2/?
Author: Kakyuu Maxwell
Rating: PG-13 **shrug**
Warnings: Giant mutant spiders and thing's that look like catfish but
act like Bitch Boy!
Note: Okay... Since I just remembered that the gundam pilots grew up
in space (duh!) and I don't recall ever hearing about them ever
knowing how to swim except for Duo in this one non-fanart pic I've
seen, it's perfectly logical what happens to Heero!
Disclaimer: Part one applies...

Drakan: Order of the Flame 2/?

Heero's eyes snapped open, filling with warm sunlight. He looked over
and saw everyone except Duo and Kujo awake. Kaori smiled. "Morning
Hee-chan."
He smiled back. "Ohayo Kaori-chan."
"Heeeeeeeeey! _I_ don't get a good morning!?" Shi whined teasingly,
waving her glaive in the air.
Heero looked around. Everyone else seemed to have disappeared except
Trowa.
"The other's went on ahead over the ridge. I gave them the book so
they'd know what they're doing. Just hope they know how to swim." Shi
grinned, walking over to Duo's sleeping form. "Hey sleeping baka!
Wake up before I find something sharp for your hair to give it a nice
Haruka style!"
Duo jumped up, his eyes wider than usual. "I'm awake!"
Shi sweatdropped. "I can tell..."
"Is there any chance Wufei will steal the book and ditch us all?"
Trowa asked.
Shi shook her head. "Nope, the only way to get anywhere in this game
is going back through this clearing, unless he goes along with the
river to the ocean and takes the way we'll take later."
"I feel sorry for Kasumi!" Kaori grinned. "She got stuck in his
group!"
Yelling could be heard and Kujo snapped awake suddenly and
stretched. "Nice nap!"
The others looked up on top of Scavenger's Cave and saw Kasumi
beating the crap out of Wufei. Shi and Kujo got into cheerleading
uniforms, while Quatre tried to stop them. "GO KASSIE! GO KASSIE!
IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY! IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!"
Kasumi gave him a good kick in the crotch and Wufei fell from the
ledge they were standing on. Mostly everyone died laughing.

****

"Okay, we'll go into the same groups as before. Kasumi, take the book
and go into the inn and follow the directions. Don't go into the room
with the barred door till after the Orc's are dead. Wait for us, then
open it. We'll be on the other side of the room." Shi said.
"Why aren't we taking the book?" Kujo asked.
"Because I know where everything is." Shi retorted.

****

"Ooooooooooookay, Shi was right, I think we should wait for them."
Kasumi blinked as she watched some mutant sized spiders take down an
Orc and start to feed on the carcus.
Quatre turned a shade of green and started retching off to the side.
"The book says there's a weapon nearby..." Wufei muttered. He looked
at Kasumi. "Onna, go get the mace on the loft."
Kasumi snorted. "What am I? Your personal slave? Get it yourself if
you want it so bad."
Grumbling about onna's who pms twentyfour-seven, he jumped from crate
to crate, trying to get high enough to reach the ledge. Finally he
did, and picked up his newfound weapon. Wufei jumped back down and
handed it to Quatre. "Here weakling, you can hold it while we wait."
Quatre just stared at him in suprise, but Kasumi grabbed the mace and
threw it at Wufei's feet. "Look Fag! We're not your servants, so hold
your own shit before I kick you again!"
Wufei boggled at her for quite some time after that.

"Ne Kory!"
"Hai?" Kaori looked down at Shi while she swam around as she
carefully slid down into the water beside her. Shi pretended to have
fangs and swiped at her with her arm as she backed out into Duo.
Kaori laughed. "So this is where they are!?" Shi nodded. The other's
looked confused.
"Where's what?" Kujo asked.
Shi grew an evil grin. "You'll soon see."
Trowa winced. "I don't like the sound of that."
Shi picked up a mithril sword leaning on a treasure chest. "Sword
anyone? Armor peircing, 100 hp!"
"Did you memorize that book?" Heero pulled Kaori out of the water.
Suddenly Kujo screamed and pointed in a cave. Everyone stared at her
with the what's-your-problem-look. "Over there!"
Everyone turned and saw 4 pairs of glowing red eyes. Shi
shrugged. "It's just the resident mutant spiders, nothing to worry
about... SPIDERS!"
"EEK!" Both shrieked, Shi from realizing how big they were, and Kujo
from fright. Shi jumped into Duo's arms, as Kujo leaped onto Trowa's
shoulders and hid her face in his hair.
Kaori looked at Shi. "You didn't seem afraid of them last night!"
"I didn't realize how big they were!"
The guys looked at each other and rolled their eyes.
"Get down Shi, this is your game and you know how to beat 'em." Duo
sighed, trying to pry Shi off of his shirt.
"Demo-"
"If you don't get in there and kill them, I'll take you by the hair
and pull it all out Shi!" Heero interupted.
Duo gasped as Shi nearly wacked him in the face as she grabbed her
knee length black hair. "He used an exclamation point!"
"Shut-up Duo..."
"Fine..." Shi resentfully got down and picked up her glaive from
where she had dropped it. She took a deap breath and walked up to
where the shadow started, slowly croaching down. Too bad the spider
saw her. It hissed and jumped at her, but Shi rolled out of the way,
slicing its head off and slashing another's abdomen as she went. Two
down, two to go. They went down just as easy.
"See, that wasn't so hard." Trowa said as Kujo climbed off his back
finally.
"Yeah, but you were just standing there kisama!" Shi yelled as she
started to walk away. The others caught up with her as she started to
dive in the underground lake. Once she surfaced, she shook her head,
spraying the other's with water.
"Hey!" Kujo exclaimed. Shi grinned. "What? You're getting in
anyways!"
They all sighed and got in except for Heero. Kaori turned
around. "Come on Hee-chan! It's not cold!"
"It's not that..." Heero blushed.
"What? Can't swim?" Duo asked with a grin.
He became even redder. "I'll go wait with the others, k? I saw which
way they went."
Heero turned around and jogged out of the cave, then started to climb
up the steep slope to the village.

****

Shi looked at the others once they all reached to other side of the
cave and were exiting the water. "One of us has to teach him to swim,
otherwise he's done for. 1/4 of the game includes swimming."
"Maybe my sister can?" Trowa suggested.
"Yeah! That'll work! Kasumi loves the water!"

****

Kasumi leafed through the enemy's section of the guide and stopped at
the beginning. "It says here that Orcs like to beat up things weaker
than themselves... Sounds like you Wu Wu."
"MY NAME IS WUFEI!"
Quatre looked over her shoulder. "Looks like a catfish."
"Are you a catfish Wu Wu?" Kasumi puzzled.
"WUFEI!"

TO BE CONTINUED!

**blink blink blink** Ooooooooooookay, I know this is getting only
slightly stupid and weird. And not to mention kinda boring. I'm just
going to skip a few parts till they reach the Dragon caves. The Wu Wu
thing was pretty funny though, ne?
