Chapter 19: Ghostly Encounter

In the year 600 AD, Goku, Frog, and Magus landed in a nearby town. " So this is the Middle Ages. I wonder if they have any food?" Goku thought. Frog and Magus said nothing. They were staring at each other, ready to fight. When Goku stopped thinking about the food he said, " Come on guys we've got a job to do remember." The two rivals looked at Goku, then put their weapons away.

They walked up to a near by castle. The castle was mostly in ruins. " Of all the places in time, why have I come here again?" Frog said. Goku looked at Frog confused. " What do you mean by again?" he asked. There was a long pause. Then Frog answered Goku's question. " My best friend's grave is here. He was slayed by Magus." Frog explained to Goku.

As Goku, Frog, and Magus entered the castle they noticed an eerie feeling. " Why do I have the feeling that something or someone is watching us?" Goku thought. Suddenly, the door to the castle ruins shut tight. " We are locked in." Frog said. Magus approached the locked door. " Do not use your magic or any kind of power, it might disturb the spirits here." Frog told him. " I don't have to take orders from slimy amphibians. Maybe I should have destroyed you along with Cyrus." Magus said to him. Frog took out his sword and challenged magus again. However, Goku stopped him. " Look I know you both have a lot of things to fight about, but we've got to put a stop to Lavos." Goku said,

Before anyone could say anything they heard a voice calling them. " If you wish to stay alive. Come to the top floor." the voice said. Goku, Frog, and Magus headed upstairs to the top floor. There was only one room. Inside the room was a tombstone which reads: " Here is the foolish knight Cyrus, that challenged Magus and perished. Frog walked up to the tombstone. " That's strange, I hath never seenth the tombstone with this kind of writing." Frog said. " What do you mean you've never seen this writing before?" Goku asked,

Suddenly, there was a heavy breeze in the room. After the wind died down there was a ghostly figure standing in front of them. " Welcome mortals. This will be your final resting spot." the ghost said. The ghost paused for a moment and looked at Frog. " An odd figure, but you will be easliy dealt with." the ghost replied. Frog looked at the ghost in awe. " Cyrus! Tis' me Glenn." Frog responded. " What Glenn? What happened to you?" Cyurs asked. Before Frog could speak, Magus answered the question. " I gave him a more suitable form after I destroyed you."

Cyrus floated towards Magus the said, " You again. I will enjoy having my revenge on you." As Cyrus took out his sword and attacked, Frog counterattacked with the Masamune sword. " That's strange how can a ghost sword touch a mortal." Goku thought. Frog looked at Cyrus. He knew something was wrong. He knew that this wasn't his best friend. " Thou woulds't never hurt anyone. Even if it is our enemy." Frog told him. Cyrus's voice slowly began to change. It sounded like two children.

" Darn it Masa. He found out." the voice said. " To bad Mune." the other voice said. The ghostly figure of Cyrus faded and revealed two familiar creatures. " Huh? Aliens in the Middle Ages." Goku said. Masa and Mune floated towards Frog. " Interesting little weapon. Come on Mune, let's show him." Masa said. " Okay Masa. This time we'll show 'em." Mune said. Together the two strange creatures combined their strength. Before they could complete their transformation, Frog threw the Masamune sword in the air.

There was a flash of bright light which filled the room. After the light faded the true power of the Masamune sword was finally revealed. " So this is the true power of the Masamune." Magus said. Masa and Mune finally knew that the Masamune sword was finally handed to it's rightful owner. The legendary hero. Frog. " That was fun." Masa said. "Sorry we impersonated your best friend." Mune said then the two mystic creatures disappeared in to the mist. " I knew there was something strange about this place. Come on let's leave." Goku said.

Goku, Frog, and Magus were about to leave when there was a small breeze. " G...le...en" a voice called out. " Not another ghost." Goku complained. " No this ghost is real." Frog told him. The ghost was real. In fact it was Cyrus. " Glenn, thank you for making the journey here." Cyrus said. Frog walked over to the ghostly figure. " Thou must think ill of me." Frog said.

Cyrus looked at his friend. " No my friend. You have grown to be a worthy swordsman. Continue to be kind hearted as you are now. Do not hold your grudge against Magus as much. You never know, the worst of enemies can become best friends." Cyrus told Frog. " I must leave now. And remember to look after Queen Leene." Cyrus said. " Wait! Do not go!" Frog pleaded. The ghostly figure started to fade away. " Take care my friend. Farewell." Cyrus said then faded away. " CYRUS!!" Frog yelled and fell to the ground trying to hold back tears.

" Come on, Frog." Let's go." Goku reassured him. As they left the room, the tombstone now reads: " Here stands a noble knight. Avenged by his best friend Glenn."

Goku, Frog, and Mgus were out of the castle ruins. " I can feel a very strong power a few miles from here." Goku said. " It must be Ozzie, Flea, and Slash." Magus said. " Those cretins are still alive." Frog said. " It is time to take those Mystics down once and for all." Magus said.
