Author's comments- I decided to talk a bit before every chapter. Please feel free to not read this.
I wonder how many people even read my story. Anyways I'm hoping to get the story moving
sometime soon. I really want to get to the chapter which explains why Elmina joined the
demons. Also I did fix a big mistake in ch 4. I forgot an important word "not," and I'm trying to
keep up with really bad chapter names and characters, and everything. Enjoy ^-^
Ch 5: Let us all go to Adlehyde
Jack, Rudy, and Cecilia readied their weapons shortly after Zed jumped ahead. Milama was
oddly quiet. "ELMINA!" Jack yelled and he quickly ran towards the pub. Cecilia, Rudy, and Zed
followed behind.
A bloody ribbon containing a few small patches of green caught Jack's eye a few feet from the
pub. It was next to a body so maimed it couldn't even be identified. He walked over to get a
closer look while Cecilia and Rudy went to investigate the pub.. "No, this can't be," Jack cried.
He knew that the ribbon belonged to Elmina. The melancholy swordsman bent down and cried
while holding the crimson stained ribbon. Hanpan crawled out of Jack's pocket and nudged him
with his nose.
Zed who had been watching Jack from a distance came and sat by Jack. "Uhh.. Listen I know we
don't like.. You know.. Get along. Well anyways, I'm sorry she's dead."
"Thanks Zed." Jack smiled a bit. "You know, you aren't that bad when you're not being a jerk."
Rudy and his wife who was now eating a hamburger walked out of the pub. Cecilia swallowed
the food in her mouth and announced "The walls and furniture are dripping with blood, and a
few bodies are on the floor. However the burgers are still warm." She took a bite out of her
burger and noticed Jack kneeling by a body. The queen swallowed the chunk of burger and
gasped "Oh.. Jack. I'm so sorry."
Jack stood up and lifted the bloody carcass. "Just give me a few minutes to bury her. Afterwards
we should probably head back to Adlehyde." He then walked away to the outskirts of the town.
"Hey, Cecilia." Zed called out. "How the hell are we supposed to get to Adlehyde? Magic still
won't work."
"There's a cave east of town." She replied sadly. "Did any of you noticed anything weird? I
couldn't bring myself to say this to Jack, but I don't believe that was Elmina's body."

The demon prophet walked down the prison corridors pulling a chain. On the other end of the
chain was a demon woman with long green hair. She wore a very revealing purple top and a
medium length purple skirt. A sword was strapped to the demon woman's back. "C'mon
Prophet, let me go. At least let me tell Yezer that it was all a big misunderstanding. I didn't
mean to hit him with lightning. It was all an accident."
The demon prophet ignored the chatter of the woman and continued on. "If you let me go, I'll
give you something good Mr. Prophet." They approached a cell and the prophet took off the
woman's chains and threw her in. He then quickly walked down the prison hallways.
The demon woman got up and yelled as loud as she could. "You bastard! When I'm the beautiful
queen of Filgaia you'll wish you never ignored the great swordswoman slash singer slash
ultimate crest sorceress slash the most perfect in everything Zeta."
Zeta turned around and sat down with her back facing the door. She noticed a human woman
wearing a pink dress in the corner. The demon woman jumped up "Whoa, I didn't know there
was somebody else in here." She ran towards the human woman, "I'm Zeta, but you can call me
Your Majesty. You're a funny looking human. What's your name?"
"I'm Emma." The human replied.
"You look like I can trust you Emma. I'm gonna make you my official servant." Zeta pointed
towards Emma, "don't worry I'm not mean like most demons are. Don't listen to the rumors of
demons switching human and animal body parts and performing experiments. Only Alhazad
does that."
Emma who was trying to sound polite despite her disgust from hearing about Alhazad said, "it's
a pleasure to meet you Zeta."
"To show you how great and wonderful I am I will get us outta here. As a great sorceress I will
put a spell on myself to make me a million percent stronger. Please observe" Zeta held her right
hand above her head and mumbled some words. She yelled, "Ultimate Strength!" She then
grabbed her sword and slashed the gate. She fell backwards on her back.
There wasn't even a scratch on the gate."Now that's funny that blow should've knocked the gate
down. Hey human it just got really hot in here. Oh shit! I'm on fire." Zeta pulled out two crest
graphs and cast the spell on herself "I think these two are muse cards." A little bat appeared out
of nowhere and started flying around. "Oops wrong spell"
She pulled out two more cards "now these are the right ones." Instead of freeze being cast the
protect spell covered the demon woman's body. Zeta could no longer feel the damage of the fire.
"Oh yeah! I'm the best crest sorceress ever. Don't you agree human?'
Not knowing what to say Emma just nodded. Just then she heard some low voices from down
the hall "Hey Myst, I sense humans are cursed down here. Let's attack them."
Another woman's voice replied "I sense it too Blade. Are you up for a battle Wendigo?"
From the shadows a demon woman emerged. She had a human form and angel but she was
covered with gold tipped feathers. There was a javelin in her right hand. Behind her stood two
demon men. One of them was slim and wrapped in old cloth much like a mummy, but he had a
long lizard tail and bat wings. He wore some lightweight armor and a sword-like blade on his
back. The other one was bulky much like the demon Belselk, except he was covered in heavy
armor and he held a battle axe.
The bird woman, Myst, approached the cage. "Well if it isn't Zeta. You're the one who always
sucks up to Zeikfried. Why did he throw you in here?"
"For your information Lord Zeikfried didn't throw me in here. That bastard Yezer did. He had
that guardian bring Lord Zeikfried to him, then Yezer killed him. I tried to heal my Lord but I
missed and hit Yezer." Tears started to form in Zeta's eyes, "at least I thought it was heal."
The demon with the long blade signaled the big demon, Wendigo, to break open the cell door.
Blade spoke "Come escape with us Zeta. That guardian wasn't supposed to revive that demon.
Lord Zeikfried was trying to make Filgaia our home, this demon is trying to annihilate the
world."
"We are planning to talk with the humans. They can't defeat him on their own, and we need a
home." Myst added. "Hopefully the rumor is true that one demon is coexisting with the
humans."
"Um excuse me." Emma interrupted. "But there is a demon that has been living with us humans
for years. He even has a daughter with a woman. If you help me get to Adlehyde I'm sure the
king and queen will allow you to stay."
Zeta jumped forward and pointed at Emma, "How come you never told me you knew royalty?"
Myst shoved the green haired woman to the ground. "Come human, we will go to this Adlehyde
you speak of. Teleportation magic doesn't seem to work, but don't worry Blade and I can fly. I
should be able to hold both you and Zeta and Blade can support Wendigo."

The queen, king, Jack, and Zed were sitting around the dining table. They had just arrived two
hours ago. The whole time Cecilia was trying to contact the guardians, but couldn't reach them.
Zed leaned toward the Tear Drop and yelled into it, "stupid guardians, just talk to her already."
"Zed, stop it. I'm trying the best I can." Cecilia snapped at him.
"Everything seems to be going wrong. My wife and kid disappear, the airship crashes, Jack's
girlfriend dies, and your mute husband still sits there not saying anything." Zed complained.
A soldier rushed in. "My king and Queen, there are demons headed this way. It looks to be five
of them, and they are flying here at an alarming speed."
"Finally, something to do." Zed added.
Rudy stood up, "if there's only five I can shoot them down with my ARM." He grabbed a
medium sized cannon from his belt. "Let us go to the roof."
