CHAPTER 2: Only The Beginning
The huge wooden doors were slowly opened by two of the knights in armour. I glanced sidelong at Kizanae and she nodded. She had always been my best advisor whom I had always gone to for help, I wasn't about to do something without consulting her, especially something of this manner. She smiled slightly and shot me a glance saying, "play it cool." We slowly walked in and the Crimson Knights followed us in. That is when we spotted her. With her back to us stood a woman about 6 feet tall, small frame and teal hair staring out a sunny window, axe in hand. My eyes widened like a child as I had the urge to yell, "Oh my god!" But, somehow I held back. I heard a scrapeing noise which I realized was the turning of someone's heel. It was her, Subaru. She turned, she had a wide close-mouthed smile on her face and her amber eyes shone in the incoming sunlight. Her baby blue dress slowly swayed as she walked toward us. She came right up to us, only about 7 feet away and said curtly, "Hello." As she did, she bowed slightly. Kizanae and I both bowed simultaneously. "How may I help you?" she asked kindly. I tried to answer ut all that came out was a stuttering jumble of misshapen words. Kizanae held her long-fingered hand limply in front of my mouth and stepped forward. "Lady Subaru," she started, bowing deeply. Subaru bowed a bit and then said, "Yes? What is it?" Kizanae took a breath and then said, "Lady Subaru-" "Just Subaru." The woman said as she smiled embarrassedly. "Subaru, my friend Mitsune and I have come across a...portal if you will. We wanted to inform the Crimson Knights and the leader, being yourself. This passageway I believe is against regulations or perhaps completely unbenounced to the system admin. " Kizanae's eyebrows were knitted together as she herself tried to undertsnad what she'd just said. "I see..." Subaru started, turning slightly toward the window. "Would you...Would you like to show me this portal?" she said looking as equally confused as myself and Kizanae. "Why, Subaru, we would be honored." I said without thinking. I quickly clapped my hand over my face as I realized how stupid I must've sounded. "I'm sorry, I don't have a way with words." "Oh, do not worry about it, neither do i." She said. This caught me off guard, my hand dropped and I h=gave her a look of question. I could tell Kizanae was doing the same as her smile dropped and she gave us each a look of knowing. "Silver Knight, I am leaving with these girls for a certain area. No procrastination." She said walking past us. We turned and stared. "Well?" she said smiling. "Are we going or not?!" she swung her axe over her shoulder as her hair bounced. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------Once we were at the field, she turned and said, "Let's go." Kizanae nodded and started to walk away. Subaru cleared her throat. Kizanae turned. "I'll show you the REAL portal. This one is a decoy." She said gesturing towards the plateau. Kizanae blushed as she gathered near us. Subaru warped out, without a chaos gate... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------We ended up in a strange looking field. It was simply a level 3 grass field. I arched my eyebrows and looked around. "Hold on." She said as she grabbed my hand. She put it up on one of the pillars holding up a windmill-like contraption. She then did the same with Kizanae's hand and then with her own. She then instructed us to close our eyes. We did so and I felt a strong wind. "Open your eyes." She said loudly. I did so and realized we were now in a strange dungeon. It was none of the existing elements. It had geliatin-like walls that coursed red and silver under the gel surface. The ground was made of rose petals. They scattered all around us and the aroma surrounded me. There were bright silver orbs floating in midair giving off a bright glow. She smiled. "This way." She walked slowly. We went to the left and the straight forward. What I saw next...would change my life forever.
