She slowly got up and dust off the sand off herself as he did as
well. She looked up to him and asked gladdly, "What are you doing here
Morty?" Her eyes flickered of waiting for an answer. Before he could be
able answer, a boy coming from down the street called the ghost pok`emon
gymleader. The boy had light mild smooth brown hair with a long front
almost covering half of his blue eyes. He was also average height and had a
black ring earring on HIS left ear.
'There he is,' he thought as he got closer.
'Aw, they look so kawaii together, Yuki!' a female voice in his head said.
'Sigh. Miko, sis, do me a favor and and KNOCK IT OFF!' he exclaimed and the female voice named 'Miko' disappeared completely. He finished walking to the guy. He looked at him then the girl. His eyes were cought in her spell of her soft glittering eyes. "My my. Who is this, Morty?"
"This is Crystalline Star," he told him. "The one I told you about."
"Ah yes. The undefeated former gym leader and elite of Suncrest City. I'm Miko Riyo," he said swiftly, grabbed her hand gently and kissed it acting like a gentlemen. "Still undefeated I presume? Ah yes, there's still no trainer nor gym leader or elites that's up to you standards since the gymleader's tournament a couple years back."
"Ah, no. There are excellent trainers, gym leaders, and elites that at my standards or higher. It's just that I came undefeated when I beat the best really," she informed him as she turned to look at Morty and lightly blushed. "It's all hard work, but I retired after year and half on the job 'cause I wanted to leave and do other things than being a gym leader. But I still have the privileges and I'm still am one even if I'm retired 'cause no one has replaced me at the gym yet." She let go of his grip and remembered something as her stepfather came from within the building. He stood behind her and Morty gasped.
"You're the guy who gave me that necklace with that little red sphere," he said at Shadi. Both Crystal and Miko turn and looked at him. He still showed no emotion and stood in his place as silence flew between them for a moment or two.
"Dad? Morty, what sphere and what about my dad?" she asked at the blond haired boy. Neither answered, neither showed weakness. This was making Miko peeved. He hated the silence and being locked out; good thing that voice that has the same name as his didn't make it worse as it is. Suddenly, the silence was broken.
"Hey Crystal!" Mokuba called as he ran up to them waving. He stopped right in front of her panting hard. It took some time for him to recover. "Crystal, we're leaving soon. Come on," He said. "And who are they?"
"Well, Mokuba I'll introduce them later when we get together. 'Kay?" she asked giving a smile to the long black haired boy. He nodded in agreement and leaded the way as the four followed. Morty, Miko and Crystal were chating as they went but the ghost gymleader couldn't get his attention and mind off the mysterious man. Somehow, he felt he should turn his back away him for a single moment just in case something was about to happen.
It took awhile to get to their destination and it was the DOCKS! The sea breeze that flew around was nice and cool compared to the town. Several sail boats docked at the pier as seagulls flocked acrossed the light blue colored sky. People went up , down, left, right to do their business they had to do for trade, transport, exporting, and importing, and daily food. Some parts were small beaches where some young kids happily played around with the crabs runing by their sides trying to get to shelter. The kids reminded Crystal the childhood she almost never had as they walked down the pathway. Morty was quite distrubed by the man with the trubin as he look right behind him as if stocking. Just think about. Some person stocks you while you know, it's very distrubing, but yet REALLY ANNOYING!!!!
After a while of Mokuba leading, they met up with the gang ready to aboard a steam engine ferry. Yugi was first notice them, and went up to them running. He soon hauled by the two stranger and by Shadi in the background, which cause him to be suspious of why he's here. One thing that popped in his mind about him: something to do with Yami's past and/or their destiny which they'll be in somesort of danger.
"Hey Yugi," Crystal greeted. Before the tri-colored haired boy said something, she interrupted. "I'll explian this when were on the ferry, 'Kay Yugi?" He had no choice than agreeing to her, he even notice that Mokuba didn't know about a thing about the two or Shadi altogether. She walked passed the two boys to where the others aboard the steam engine ferry waiting impatiently.
"Come on," Joey said bored half to death and decided to live things up. "Snails move 'lot faster than them!" Silence was the only answer to his tasteless joke followed by a hit in the head by the light brown hair girl.
"You better know a good hiding place soon, baka!" Crystal yelled in his ear causing him to jump a foot or two in the air.
"Why the hell you did that for!?" the blonde yelled rubbing his head as everyone aboard laughed at him, even the ones who got aboarded except Shadi.
"Figure that out, baka," she said logically. Seto was getting quite entertained by this and wonder what else was in stored from her insults to the over grown monkey. She walked passed Joey in his cluelessness position as a total frezee frame. She grinned evilishly for her own accomplishment as she walked passed everyone infront of her made way to the front of the boat. This made everyone start to think as her as a another Kaiba; there enough for one to have that personality, but two in the same place must be hell, especially for Joey. She might as well start calling him a puppy, a mutt, or a monkey sooner or later. He might want to jump off the boat and hope some hungry crocodiles eat him whole, but what about his little sister, Serenity with the two pervs? Back to the drawing board.
Once she reached the front, she leaned gently against the white metallic balcony as the cool sea brezee surrounded her. Yugi walked and stood about a couple of feet behind her thinking why she was acting like this not noticing Marik was right next to him.
"You better not talk to her or she'll go into a total rampage," Marik said causing Yugi to jump away from the dirty blonde. "I should know 'cause I experienced once, and once is enough for everyone." He chuckled. That reminded that day and it was long before she even got to meet Ishuzi like about a decade when they first met and just about five years before he had that damned tomb keepers initiation.
"Hey, Marik," Yugi said as he snapped backed to reality then looked at the short guy. ((Yugi: I'n not short! I'm lacking my growth spurt! / Sarah:In other words, you're a midget. / Yugi:-----___-----;;;;;)) He asked curiously, "I was just wondering, how did you and Crystal meet? Back there at the museum, it sounded you knew her alot longer."
His eyes widen abit and blushed shamelessly. He started then looked at the girl infront of him as her looked out at the river like if in a trace. "You see it was about eight or nine years ago when I first meet her. It's wasn't love at first sight because I was too young and I worried about the initiation when I get to be twelve. I didn't want to go though with it. I just started with I was playing with Odeon in a game of ball......"
~*Flash Back*~
"Here, Master Marik," Odeon said as he passed the ball to young 7 year old Marik. The ball went farther than he expected to be and it bounced then rolled way passed Marik. He called out that he'll get since he was closer the creamed colored ball. As he was about to grab it, he heard an extremely faint crying and stopped. Must be his imagination he thought. He picked up the ball and turned away. There it was again, the crying. It not must've been his imagination for sure. Odeon noticed that the dirty blonde boy stopped in his tracks and turned. So he went up the boy and gently asked, "What's the matter?"
"Did you hear it?" he asked curiously.
"What?"
"The crying," he reponded as he looked in the direction where he thought the crying was from down of the dark hall way that hasn't been lit for quite some time. He hastely dropped the sphere object and ran towards the faint sound. Odeon followed repeatingly calling him back.
He ran and ran into the dusky humid hall, slowly, slowly the cry grew and it was recognized to belong to a female. As he went a faint light appeared in the dark hallway leadenly grew as well. Soon he could spot three dark figures in the light. He was quickly stopped by Odeon as he feared something might harm the young one. One of the shadows stood up whiched appeared to be a shape of a dog, and moved closer to the two growling. Odeon hold tight on the child as the animal came closer.
"Houndour, where your off to?" the same female voice said gently as she got up and drew closer. As she drew close, Marik could see the details of the girl. She was about the same age and height as him, with shoulder length light brown hair and dark blue eyes that gleamered bright a lighter tint colour, and wore what appeared to be a delicate red Japanese dress with a swift golden stitched dragon at the bottom with its head held proudly roaring, and a red headband and shoes to go with it. (A/N:You know, they sort like slippers with backs for being outside.) Plus a collar holding together by a gold star-shaped charmed. The third figure stood up of a shape of what like appeared to be a baby fox running to its mistress as she stopped in her tracks.
Houndour, what was the black dog's name with some sort of what appeared to be white bones on its back, continued to growled in anger, bearing its sharp dangerous teeth. Marik clutched Odeon in fear of getting attacked.
"Down boy!" she ordered in fear he could harm them and obeyed instantly. She sighed in relief 'cause she has seen him what he can do when he gets angry, he could anout tear a person into shreads of paper. The two boysstared at her as she drew closer and stopped about a few feet infront of them. She asked kindly, "Um..... Can you help me?"
Both of them must've think she was being joking around like high and mighty turned into a child in need. "With what?" Odeon asked with a slight anger, not noticing the little red fox was rubbing its head against the young Marik's leg.
"I'm lost," she reponded, and the two wondered how since they have never seen her 'til now. "I walking in the the ruins above looking and playing around, when until the stone floor gave way causing me to fall in here and some of the stones covered it up since it was fairly small. I didn't know that there were underground tunnels in this area. I move down this way since the other way was blocked to find an exit. Since it was dark, Houndour lit up some of the torches. After awhile I grew tired and started to lose hope if we can ever get out. So can you help me please?"
Odeon wonder if not to help the girl. Marik tough his clothing and said kindly, "Maybe we should help her, Odeon."
He nodded in agreement with the boy. "Alright. We'll help you."
"Thank you," she said happily. Meanwhile Marik notices the fox at his leg and gave a small yelp, causing it to run to its mistress. She pick it up gracefully and softly giggled. "Sorry for that. it's rare for her to get near strangers. Oh-yah this is Vulpix." The red fox yelped happily at the dirty blonde and he smiled abit as the older boy lead the way.
As they walked Marik wonder about the girl walking next to him still holding the fox, and asked, "I forgot to ask, what's you name?"
The girl looked at him and smiled, "Crystalline Star. Yours?"
He blushed. The name, the name was so smooth and sweet like a beautiful flower by the way she said it. He replied, "Marik Ishtar. So Crystalline," as he began his question, she interupted saying just Crystal will do fine 'cause it was mostly used than her whole first name. "Crystal, I was just wondering how did your black dog lit up the oil torches?"
"Uh? Oh yeah," she giggled. "I forgot to explain that he not a dog. He can use mostly fire and dark base powers. He's not the only one, Vuplix also uses fire base powers as well as physic power when she gets to evolve soon." This left him in puzzelment. Fire, dark, and physic base power? What does she mean. "I know you don't understand, so I'll show you. Houndour, please go abit ahead and use Flamethower to light our way." Houndour went to do what he was told and engulfed most of the tunnel before them in a single vicious attack making the two speechless. "Shall we may proceed?" She asked kindly.
*End of Flashback.*
".... That's how we meet. She may look all beautiful like a sakura, but she can be untanable at times. Sort of make Kaiba look good," Marik joked. It has been awhile since the ferry left the dock, they were about out of the town area and making way to his home under the ruins. "I'll take care of this, Okay Yugi?"
"Alright," he agreed. "If you need some help, just ask. See ya."
Marik turned to look at the girl as she she quitely gazed out at the beautiful unmentionable Egyptain scenery. He walked up next to her and chatted with her abit so time could pass by like the refreshing sea brezee. Soon it was time to dock at a peir that was closest to the ruins. There some of the tomb keepers were present with several white stallions to them to ride. Since there was not enough, Marik and Crystal rode together, and so were Joey and Mai. Kaiba tok Mokuba since he was young to control it. The two boys controlled the horses and the girls rode cluching onto the boys.
By the orange setting sun, they finally reached their destination. They got off the elegant creatures, Joey had some problems getting off his like his foot stuck on the pedal as the horse moved wildly; ending it him crashed onto the hard yellow stone floor as the stallion laughed as well as the boy's friends. Two of the keeper opened the wooden doors and walked into the darkness.
As group were about to enter, the earth trembled massively causing everyone to fall as well portions of the standing ruins. Joey, Tristan, and Duke trembled as cowering dogs. Kaiba chutched tightly onto his younger sibling shielding him from harm. The earth split with massive towers of sand standing in the air creating some destruction. Unknowingly, the earth split massively taking instantly sucking in Crystal, Marik, Yugi, Kaiba, Mokuba, Joey, Mai, Morty, Serenity, Ryou, and T`ea into the deep dark abyss. Their yells were nothing compared to their suroundings. The crack sealed up qiuckly before no one could notice.
After the earthquake ended, everyone that they we were gone, but how? They called their names out but no reponse. Where could they be? All of them thought in worry. Meanwhile they were blacked out, falling even deeper as they went. Unknowing what will happen to all of them, but they'll know soon enough slowly, hard, and painful.
=+=+=+=+=
A better cliffie YET! And this is the longest chapter YET as well! Yes, Miko(Yuki) and Miko are from the fiction I mentioned last chappie, 'Miko Alpha.' So both are MY OCS!! COOLIES!!! I'M SUGAR HIGHIE!!! *Goes and blow up several fire hydrants with fireworks from the dollar store and maybe some help from gunpowder.*
I know that bit of background info is stupid(Except for Marik's cuz that's how they met), but it'll come into effect MUCH later when she battling..... Oops! Not suppose to tell ya! . If I did tell ya, then there's almost no reason to read if you know what's going to happen, ne? I know it took longer than the others to get it up, cuz I'm working on a timeline and I'm up to chapter 15, but it's too young! V.V Em, In other words, it's not far in time to this chapter cuz well get sort of different views of the gang. Wouldn't you believe the next five chapter are in the same day, but in different areas? Shit! I told you guys something! Arrrg! *Crashed on the hard floor along w/ her chair.* x.X
Elda Aranel:I SHALL AND I WILL AND I QOUTE FROM LAST CHAPPIE, "This is just the START!"
Sakura-san & San-san:Like Marik recalled, Shadi is her stepfather. She calls him 'Dad' because he was like the only family she had at the begining after the incident. I think it was mentioned before. Neat, I just got that idea from a faint spark awhile after I watched Card Captor Sakura The Sealed Card(the second movie). I thought if the Items had dark power, wouldn't there be something to counteract it? Then Bang! It hit me. Not really. (If it did, I would be kicking someone's ass right now..........either way someone's ass is going to be kicked by me sooner or later in WAY less than two days tops.) Like in the movie, the Hope Card counteracted to the Clow Cards, but after they were turned into Sakura Card. Then it was going unbalanced. One way or another. But my idea was taking it away, not transforming it. Whew! @.@
Kitty:Well, duh it is. And it's going to get better.
Tammi:That sucks. *Looking in dictionary.* Engrossing, Engrossing, Engrossing, here we go:To occupy the complete attention of; aborb wholly. *Closes dictionary.* THANKIES!
PS. Think so far it's good? Think again. Wait until next chappie! That's where the REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY GOOD STUFF(which I mostly referrer to call JUNK! Cuz it sound good! ^______^ *Reader's animedrops.*) STARTS TO HAPPENS!!!! NO CRAPPENS!(FYI: Crap+Happens)

~*Preview of Miko Alpha*~
"You're going the wrong way, Miko!" a beautiful woman cried out as she gashed a massive jaguar-like machine with her sword with a clear blade, a gold and sliver handle embedded with three emeralds and one large sphere diamond on the middle emitting bright color everywhere. Other people were trying to protect the young ones. Massive amount of smoke and fume filled up the purple night sky. Many homes and buildings were already demolished and crumbled. Sounds of machine guns filled the air. Already now, the machines were over powering them as many drop to the floor dead filling the floor with a red substance.
All the children were all safely hidden but this one. He just hid behind a mild thick purple herbal bush in fear of what will happen to his mother as she fought and yelling at him to run. He couldn't leave his mother, he was just too... young. His eyes wide in fear, fear of them losing, and he didn't notice one of those machines was right behind him with it's mouth opened and it's eyes glowing deep red.
'There he is,' he thought as he got closer.
'Aw, they look so kawaii together, Yuki!' a female voice in his head said.
'Sigh. Miko, sis, do me a favor and and KNOCK IT OFF!' he exclaimed and the female voice named 'Miko' disappeared completely. He finished walking to the guy. He looked at him then the girl. His eyes were cought in her spell of her soft glittering eyes. "My my. Who is this, Morty?"
"This is Crystalline Star," he told him. "The one I told you about."
"Ah yes. The undefeated former gym leader and elite of Suncrest City. I'm Miko Riyo," he said swiftly, grabbed her hand gently and kissed it acting like a gentlemen. "Still undefeated I presume? Ah yes, there's still no trainer nor gym leader or elites that's up to you standards since the gymleader's tournament a couple years back."
"Ah, no. There are excellent trainers, gym leaders, and elites that at my standards or higher. It's just that I came undefeated when I beat the best really," she informed him as she turned to look at Morty and lightly blushed. "It's all hard work, but I retired after year and half on the job 'cause I wanted to leave and do other things than being a gym leader. But I still have the privileges and I'm still am one even if I'm retired 'cause no one has replaced me at the gym yet." She let go of his grip and remembered something as her stepfather came from within the building. He stood behind her and Morty gasped.
"You're the guy who gave me that necklace with that little red sphere," he said at Shadi. Both Crystal and Miko turn and looked at him. He still showed no emotion and stood in his place as silence flew between them for a moment or two.
"Dad? Morty, what sphere and what about my dad?" she asked at the blond haired boy. Neither answered, neither showed weakness. This was making Miko peeved. He hated the silence and being locked out; good thing that voice that has the same name as his didn't make it worse as it is. Suddenly, the silence was broken.
"Hey Crystal!" Mokuba called as he ran up to them waving. He stopped right in front of her panting hard. It took some time for him to recover. "Crystal, we're leaving soon. Come on," He said. "And who are they?"
"Well, Mokuba I'll introduce them later when we get together. 'Kay?" she asked giving a smile to the long black haired boy. He nodded in agreement and leaded the way as the four followed. Morty, Miko and Crystal were chating as they went but the ghost gymleader couldn't get his attention and mind off the mysterious man. Somehow, he felt he should turn his back away him for a single moment just in case something was about to happen.

One of the shadows stood up whiched appeared to be a shape of a dog, and moved closer to the two growling. Odeon hold tight on the child as the animal came closer.
"Houndour, where your off to?" the same female voice said gently as she got up and drew closer. As she drew close, Marik could see the details of the girl. She was about the same age and height as him, with shoulder length light brown hair and dark blue eyes that gleamered bright a lighter tint colour, and wore what appeared to be a delicate red Japanese dress with a swift golden stitched dragon at the bottom with its head held proudly roaring, and a red headband and shoes to go with it. (A/N:You know, they sort like slippers with backs for being outside.) Plus a collar holding together by a gold star-shaped charmed. The third figure stood up of a shape of what like appeared to be a baby fox running to its mistress as she stopped in her tracks.
Houndour, what was the black dog's name with some sort of what appeared to be white bones on its back, continued to growled in anger, bearing its sharp dangerous teeth. Marik clutched Odeon in fear of getting attacked.
"Down boy!" she ordered in fear he could harm them and obeyed instantly. She sighed in relief 'cause she has seen him what he can do when he gets angry, he could anout tear a person into shreads of paper. The two boysstared at her as she drew closer and stopped about a few feet infront of them. She asked kindly, "Um..... Can you help me?"
Both of them must've think she was being joking around like high and mighty turned into a child in need. "With what?" Odeon asked with a slight anger, not noticing the little red fox was rubbing its head against the young Marik's leg.
"I'm lost," she reponded, and the two wondered how since they have never seen her 'til now. "I walking in the the ruins above looking and playing around, when until the stone floor gave way causing me to fall in here and some of the stones covered it up since it was fairly small. I didn't know that there were underground tunnels in this area. I move down this way since the other way was blocked to find an exit. Since it was dark, Houndour lit up some of the torches.

Odeon wonder if not to help the girl. Marik tough his clothing and said kindly, "Maybe we should help her, Odeon."

As they walked Marik wonder about the girl walking next to him still holding the fox, and asked, "I forgot to ask, what's you name?"
The girl looked at him and smiled, "Crystalline Star. Yours?"
He blushed. The name, the name was so smooth and sweet like a beautiful flower by the way she said it. He replied, "Marik Ishtar. So Crystalline," as he began his question, she interupted saying just Crystal will do fine 'cause it was mostly used than her whole first name. "Crystal, I was just wondering how did your black dog lit up the oil torches?"
"Uh? Oh yeah," she giggled. "I forgot to explain that he not a dog. He can use mostly fire and dark base powers.

"I know you don't understand, so I'll show you. Houndour, please go abit ahead and use Flamethower to light our way." Houndour went to do what he was told and engulfed most of the tunnel before them in a single vicious attack making the two speechless. "Shall we may proceed?" She asked kindly.
*End of Flashback.*
".... That's how we meet. She may look all beautiful like a sakura, but she can be untanable at times. Sort of make Kaiba look good," Marik joked. It has been awhile since the ferry left the dock, they were about out of the town area and making way to his home under the ruins. "I'll take care of this, Okay Yugi?"
"Alright," he agreed. "If you need some help, just ask. See ya."
Marik turned to look at the girl as she she quitely gazed out at the beautiful unmentionable Egyptain scenery. He walked up next to her and chatted with her abit so time could pass by like the refreshing sea brezee. Soon it was time to dock at a peir that was closest to the ruins. There some of the tomb keepers were present with several white stallions to them to ride. Since there was not enough, Marik and Crystal rode together, and so were Joey and Mai. Kaiba tok Mokuba since he was young to control it. The two boys controlled the horses and the girls rode cluching onto the boys.

As group were about to enter, the earth trembled massively causing everyone to fall as well portions of the standing ruins. Joey, Tristan, and Duke trembled as cowering dogs. Kaiba chutched tightly onto his younger sibling shielding him from harm. The earth split with massive towers of sand standing in the air creating some destruction. Unknowingly, the earth split massively taking instantly sucking in Crystal, Marik, Yugi, Kaiba, Mokuba, Joey, Mai, Morty, Serenity, Ryou, and T`ea into the deep dark abyss. Their yells were nothing compared to their suroundings. The crack sealed up qiuckly before no one could notice.
After the earthquake ended, everyone that they we were gone, but how? They called their names out but no reponse. Where could they be? All of them thought in worry. Meanwhile they were blacked out, falling even deeper as they went. Unknowing what will happen to all of them, but they'll know soon enough slowly, hard, and painful.

A better cliffie YET! And this is the longest chapter YET as well! Yes, Miko(Yuki) and Miko are from the fiction I mentioned last chappie, 'Miko Alpha.' So both are MY OCS!! COOLIES!!! I'M SUGAR HIGHIE!!! *Goes and blow up several fire hydrants with fireworks from the dollar store and maybe some help from gunpowder.*
I know that bit of background info is stupid(Except for Marik's cuz that's how they met), but it'll come into effect MUCH later when she battling..... Oops! Not suppose to tell ya! . If I did tell ya, then there's almost no reason to read if you know what's going to happen, ne? I know it took longer than the others to get it up, cuz I'm working on a timeline and I'm up to chapter 15, but it's too young! V.V Em, In other words, it's not far in time to this chapter cuz well get sort of different views of the gang. Wouldn't you believe the next five chapter are in the same day, but in different areas? Shit! I told you guys something! Arrrg! *Crashed on the hard floor along w/ her chair.* x.X
Elda Aranel:I SHALL AND I WILL AND I QOUTE FROM LAST CHAPPIE, "This is just the START!"
Sakura-san & San-san:Like Marik recalled, Shadi is her stepfather. She calls him 'Dad' because he was like the only family she had at the begining after the incident. I think it was mentioned before. Neat, I just got that idea from a faint spark awhile after I watched Card Captor Sakura The Sealed Card(the second movie). I thought if the Items had dark power, wouldn't there be something to counteract it? Then Bang! It hit me. Not really. (If it did, I would be kicking someone's ass right now..........either way someone's ass is going to be kicked by me sooner or later in WAY less than two days tops.) Like in the movie, the Hope Card counteracted to the Clow Cards, but after they were turned into Sakura Card. Then it was going unbalanced. One way or another. But my idea was taking it away, not transforming it. Whew! @.@
Kitty:Well, duh it is. And it's going to get better.
Tammi:That sucks. *Looking in dictionary.* Engrossing, Engrossing, Engrossing, here we go:To occupy the complete attention of; aborb wholly. *Closes dictionary.* THANKIES!
PS. Think so far it's good? Think again. Wait until next chappie! That's where the REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY GOOD STUFF(which I mostly referrer to call JUNK! Cuz it sound good! ^______^ *Reader's animedrops.*) STARTS TO HAPPENS!!!! NO CRAPPENS!(FYI: Crap+Happens)
R&R!! And here's the preview of my latest fiction, Miko Alpha! And I'm doing the manga for it! Yipee! Only a few pages done! ---__---;;;; When I get a site and do the stuff for it, you guyz and gals will enjoy it! I know cuz I showed it to some of my friends, and enjoyed it and can't wait what will happen next!

It'll be out in late December like at X-Mas! It's a present for you reviewers to enjoy!
~*Preview of Miko Alpha*~
"You're going the wrong way, Miko!" a beautiful woman cried out as she gashed a massive jaguar-like machine with her sword with a clear blade, a gold and sliver handle embedded with three emeralds and one large sphere diamond on the middle emitting bright color everywhere. Other people were trying to protect the young ones. Massive amount of smoke and fume filled up the purple night sky. Many homes and buildings were already demolished and crumbled. Sounds of machine guns filled the air. Already now, the machines were over powering them as many drop to the floor dead filling the floor with a red substance.
All the children were all safely hidden but this one. He just hid behind a mild thick purple herbal bush in fear of what will happen to his mother as she fought and yelling at him to run. He couldn't leave his mother, he was just too... young. His eyes wide in fear, fear of them losing, and he didn't notice one of those machines was right behind him with it's mouth opened and it's eyes glowing deep red.
