Book #1-Dragon Knights: The Alternate Sky Knight
Chapter 4- The Mission, Dresses and Killing Demon Pratice
SG: O.O...don't ask about the title...I just ate ramen and it decided to pop up...^^anyway...disclaimer is the same so let's get going
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While Ruwalk was helping Kimi find a sword for Sky, Lykouleon took Rune into his office to talk
to him.
"I've been thinking on what Kimi said about finding the portal to her home....you know anything
about it?"asked Lykouleon.
"Yes...before she made her choice, she showed me a map of her world. She said it's called,
'Earth'...it almost looks like our world...just with more water...."
"Really?"
"Yes...but on the map that she showed me was quite...colorful and had different sections that
were countries....and capitals.....that's all she really showed me of Earth...."said Rune,
relaying what Kimi showed him back in her room.
"Hmmm....but about the portal....I think their might be more than one...."
"On a different subject...the Sky Dragon.....isn't Sky and Wind the same?"asked Rune.
"Similar...but different...Sky Dragon is for the sky and beyond...while the wind...can do storms
and bring things back to life....infact, the Sky Dragon and the Wind Dragon are sisters...."
"Wha!"
"Yes....they are..."
"But...the wind dragon is dead...killed by her own Dragon Knight....though...I'll never consider
Nadil a Dragon Knight....."
"That is true....there are some dragons are hidden to the day that either the Fire Dragon, Water
Dragon, Wind Dragon, Earth Dragon or Light Dragon are destroyed....they replaced them to keep the
balance alive...it's the same thing for the Sky and Wind Dragons...."
"So that's why the crystal was brought here...."
"Yes...when the Wind Dragon was killed, the crystal prison that the Sky Dragon was in appeared
near the faerie forest....for a year or so...waterlights were able to let people in so they can
see if they really are the missing Sky Dragon Knight....just I never expected to be a young
girl from a different world...."
"Yes...it took me by surprise too..."
"So...here in a few days...I want you, Rath and Thatz to accompany Kimberly to find the 2nd
portal...."
"Wah!"
"It should be good...in the mean time...you can show her how to ride the Sky Dragon..."said
Lykouleon as he smiled. Rune just gave a shocked look and said, "Okay..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later on that day....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So why do I have to stand like this again?"asked Kimi as she was standing on a footstool with
people measuring her.
"Wow! I can't believe it! She has the same measurements as you, your highness..."said the
measure girl to Rasleane. The measure girl ran out for a few moments and then came back in with a
pile of clothing. "Uhhhh...."Kimi said as they were placed on her arms. "It's your uniform..."
"Wha!"said Kimi as she gave a surprised look. "People outside of the castle might thing you are a
demon with the clothes that you have...."said the measure girl. Kimi gave a stare at her for
remarking her clothes. Raseleane turned to her and said, "Ready?"
"Yep!"said the measure girl. Kimi gave a confused look to what might happen next.
~~~~~~
Kimi was wearing a dress. "Wow! If her hair was longer and different...she could pose as
you!"said the measure girl. "Yeah!"said Raseleane with happiness in her voice.
*I hate dresses....*Kimi said in her head.
~~~~~~
Now Kimi was in the Dragon Knight uniform. It was a 2 piece and almost looked like a kimono with
the colors of black and purple. No dress part, just pants.
*Someone please help me escape from this nightmare of...trying on clothes....*said Kimi as she
watched Raseleane and the measuring girl compliment. *They both remind me of my
mother...(Sigh)I'm so glade that I didn't take up modeling....* Kimi looked over at her clothes
that she wore before. Her blue jeans with the flowers on it and a blue shirt that almost resemble
a Chinese top with some touches of gold. Next to them was the sword that Ruwalk helped her find.
*What I wouldn't give to see the final season of Rurouni Kenshin right about now....or at least
surfing....* Soon there was a knock on the door.
"Come in..."said Raseleane as Rune entered the room, dragging Thatz along with him.
"We came to get Kimi...we kinda need to tell her something....and..."started Rune.
"Stuff..."finished Thatz.
"Oh...okay...maybe we can finish this off later..."said Raseleane.
"Yeah..."said Kimi, kinda glade that she didn't have to try on clothes again. The measuring
girl helped her down from the stool as another one handed her the original clothes, the sword,
and a dress.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Soon as Kimi, Thatz and Rune were far away from the room, Kimi said, "You guys have the most
perfect timing....."
"Why? Did you want to finish it?"asked Rune.
"NO! I'm glade you got me out of there! 1 more dress and I would've scream...no offence to Queen
Raseleane....I'm not much of a person to try on dresses...."said Kimi, trying not to offend
Raseleane. Rune and Thatz smiled abit to what Kimi said.
"Anyway....we came to tell you that we're leaving here in 4 days...."said Thatz.
"What! You guys are leaving me here?"asked Kimi with a bit of surprise in her voice.
"No..."said Thatz.
"Lord Lykouleon has a new mission that includes you...he wants us to help you find the portal
back home...."said Rune.
"Really! AWWW YOU GUYS ARE THE GREATEST!" said Kimi as she wrapped her arms around both Thatz's
and Rune's necks.
"But first, we have to give you some training...."said Rune.
"Training?"asked Kimi.
"Like, how to work your sword...how to fly on Sky....and...other stuff...."said Thatz.
"Uhhh...."said Kimi.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Our friend, Zoma and the Dragon Knights have agreed to help to help you with this
exercise...."said Kai-stern. They were our in the middle of the backyard. "All you do block all
their attacks...and insure victory...just...don't kill them...get to the red flag and come back
with it..."
"Uh...okay..."said Kimi as she headed for there. *Like I know what in heck I'm doing...* All she
had with her, was her sword, herself and her surfboard which was strapped to her back. There was
a forest like area. As she was walking, she heard something that made Kimi stop. *crap...what was
that*
"YAHHH!!!"yelled Thatz as he came out of no where with his sword to attack her. "OH CRAP!"yelled
Kimi as she moved out of the way.
"I'm a demon ready to eat you, you stupid human girl..."said Thatz, making a crazed face.
*Okay...that...was creepy...*Then Thatz ran straight for her and she moved again. *what to do
what do...duh! My sword!*Kimi uncovered her sword and was able to block Thatz's next attack.
"Not bad...little human...."said Thatz, trying to imitate a demon.
"Heh...you ain't seen nothing yet...."said Kimi as she trust her foot forward and...
"OHHHHH!!!!!!!!!AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"Thatz yelled that
caused the birds to fly up.
"What was that?"asked Raseleane to Kai-stern and Lykouleon. The two men gave sweat
drops...thinking what Kimi did that they think she did.
"WHAT IN THE HECK DID YOU DO THAT FOR!"yelled Thatz, curled up in a ball.
"Uh...defeated you..."said Kimi.
"Demons are not doing to die, just by kicking them there! What if one of them is a girl!"
"Uh...."said Kimi as she gave a sweatdrop to the Earth Dragon Knight. Thatz recovered and stood
up. "You see.....demons are not going to just give up so quickly just by kicking them...you have
to learn to use your will and your sword..."
"Ohhh....that's how I usually defeat surfers who were so arrogant that they were beat by a
girl..."
"*Sigh* This is not a surfing thingy!! It's a demon exercise! Now....let's try
this...again..."said Thatz as he lunged himself towards Kimi. Kimi blocked it again. *I wish it
was surfing again...I missed how I could predict some moves of the waves and create the
trick....wait! duh! What if I do that in sword fighting....* Kimi then kicked Thatz in the leg to
give her so distance. *Now think..Kenshin Himura....speed...style...and speed attacks....* Soon
as Thatz lunged at Kimi, she jumped right over him. As she did, her foot knocked his sword out of
his hands and landed on the other side and had her sword point at the back of his neck. "Care to
try that again?"Kimi asked.
"Ehhh....no....you have my sword far way from my hands and you have the pointed part at the back
of my neck....I say...you win...if I was really a demon...you would've killed me...right?"
"Uh...yeah...I guess....is that what I'm suppose to do?"said Kimi as she removed the point. Thatz
nodded. (What is with this girl?)
"Well now...1st stage cleared...I'll go back to Kai-stern....good luck with the others...you
really are going to need it"said Thatz as he picked up his sword and headed off. Kimi waited till
Thatz was gone, before heading off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She was still in the woods and it seemed never ending. "Okay...I love trees...but this...is the
final straw...."said Kimi, removing a fallen leaf from her hair. After a few moments, there was
rusle in the bushes and Kimi couldn't believe her eyes...it was HERSELF!
"Okay! Now what's going on here...."said Kimi, looking at the double.
"Dunno....maybe you know..."said the Double Kimi. Kimi looked up and down at the double self and
noticed 2 flaws. The clone had 2 short swords instead on hers which was like a Japanese sword.
And the hair was tad bit shorter.
"So...you trying to be a Kite version of me?"said Kimi. The double self gave her a strange look
and said, "Kite version?"
"Heheheh....only the real me knows about the .hack video games....let me guess...you're
Zoma...."said Kimi, grabbing the handle of her sword.
"Heh...and what if I am?"said the Double self.
"Uh...that part...I have no clue.....^-^...."said Kimi. Zoma gave a weird look and changed into
his real form.
"Oh you're good..."said Zoma.
"*giggle*Thanks...."said Kimi.
"Well..you past part of the 2nd stage....figuring out your opponent while they are looking like
someone else or yourself...think you can defeat me?"asked Zoma.
"We'll see..."said Kimi as she unveils her sword. Zoma soon charged right at her as well as Kimi
did the same. But with shortness, Zoma had a small advantage over the 6 foot tall Californian
Surfer. He was able to slide under her and attack her from behind. But with Kimi thinking about
all of Kenshin's moves, she was able to block with point blank. She also wanted to protect her
surfboard.
"I'm surprised that you're not using your shield you have strapped to your back...."said Zoma as
he was trying to break off Kimi's block.
"It's not a shield...it's a surfboard....for riding ocean..WAVES!"said Kimi as she was able to
fend off Zoma's attack. *What's that fast move again...* Kimi then put her sword back in it's holder
and waited. As Zoma was charging at her, she flipped it over and then pulled it out, tackled him
and was ontop of him with the blunt side near his neck.
"Think you can kill a demon with the blunt part of the sword?"asked Zoma. Kimi's answer was
flipping the blade. "Okay..maybe now....you could kill a demon.....you win...you passed the 2nd
stage...."said Zoma, but Kimi was more poking his horn.
"You really are a demon...are you?"asked Kimi.
"Yes....but don't kill me....I'm here to protect Cesia...."said Zoma.
"Are you sure..."
"yes...if I wasn't really part of it, I would be in pain due to the Dragon Lord's shield around
the castle...."
"Ohhh...I think...oh well...here you go..."said Kimi as she got up and helped Zoma up.
"Uh thanks...uh..."
"It's Kimi..."
"Okay....by the way...why was Thatz screaming about back there?"
"Heh...you really don't want to know...."said Kimi as she gave a fake smile. Zoma gave a confused
look at Kimi was walking away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
few moments later....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Can we have alittle more trees around here!!!!"Kimi yelled at the top of her lungs to the sky.
"What I wouldn't kill to see at least see a skyscraper or the ocean......instead of tress...."
As Kimi was walking alittle bit more, the silence of the woods was getting more quiet. Kimi
stopped in her tracks.
*Why do I have this WEIRD feeling that I'm about to be attacked?*As Kimi was thinking that, she
felt something at the back of her neck.
"You loose, Kimberly....."said a voice behind her.
