Disclaimer : It's been a while I didn't say it so here it goes. I don't own anything of perfect dark and never will. If I was the owner of perfect dark, the ending of the game would have been better than that (I thought that the ending completely sucked).
A/N: Okay let's answer to the reviews at the beginning cause I wanna be sure to not tell to myself at the end of this chapter 'damn I'm too tired I wanna go to bed so I won't answer to reviews it's too long'. So here it goes :)
Spider-bear: It's always reassuring to know that some people are interested about what I'm writing :) And true…Jon will regret his words someday :D
Peachrocks: Yeah…Probably more arguments will happen because of the very different point of view between Jo and Jon about religion and other stuff but I'll try to not make so much arguments anymore cause it begins to be kinda…repetitive (lol).
Viewtiful John: I'm glad that you still like this story :) But I cannot really use special weapons like pheonix. Probably the only futurist weapon I'll use is the falcon 2 but there's going to have a lot of bow/sword/axe/andanyothermedievalweapon stuff later.
Fantasy Chick3455: (big grin) Yes, Jo and Jon shared the cape…there is a beginning to everything somewhere after all (even bigger grin) Don't ask me the meaning of this sentence (cannot be a bigger grin cause it's already at its biggest). !!! Do you have a horse? Tell me I wanna know! Also if you give me his/her name, I'm gonna give the same to Jon's horse :) I don't have any name for Jon's horse and it's annoying me.
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR REVIEWS
Chapter 4: Meeting with Lord Carrington.
To Joanna's disappointment, she woke in the same place she fell asleep the evening before. It was very early in the morning but Joanna was sure that she was going to sleep again. It was too sunny and she was too anxious. Everything that was in front of her didn't look like it was a dream. Joanna began to believe that she'll never return to her own world. Jonathan was already up and was apparently in the forest because he was nowhere to be seen.
"I hope he isn't hunting because there's no way I'm going to eat a rabbit or a deer" commented Joanna.
Joanna lazily stood up and shivered. The chilliness from the night was still present. She took Jonathan's cape and covered herself with it.
"HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!"
"AAH! What the…Promise me that you'll never do that again!" exclaimed Joanna as she turned herself to see Jonathan.
"Hehe…I was sure that you were going to react like that…Anyway, I found some fruits in the forest" responded Jonathan.
He showed her a bag made of clothe full of something unknown to Joanna and opened it. The bag was filled with all kinds of small fruits.
"Phew, I'm reassured. I thought that you were hunting and that I would be obligated to eat a piece of meat for breakfast" commented Joanna.
"I would never do that. It's too long to find and to prepare after. If I had killed something this morning, the meat would have been ready for dinner tonight" replied Jonathan.
"Well, I'm glad you brought fruits… I'm not really hungry after all. And are you sure that those fruits are all edible?" asked Joanna.
"Of course I am! If I didn't knew, I would get sick very often! I'm often obligated to find food by myself so I'm an expert for this" answered Jonathan with a proud tone.
"Well, I'm happy to hear that. Now give me those fruits. I'm hungry!"
"Wait a minute, I thought that you were supposed to not be hungry…"
"Aw come on Jon. Just give me those damn fruits and shut up!"
Jonathan grinned and gave her the bag. She was as fun to annoy as the other Joanna he knew.

The road wasn't very long anymore. They were arriving to Carrington…ahem…Lord Carrington's castle very soon. Finally, the castle became visible.
"Is it Carrington's castle?" asked Joanna curiously.
"Yes, it's LORD Carrington's castle" answered Jonathan.
"I have so a big butt ache, I'm happy to see that we're finally arrived" said Joanna.
"I suggest you to keep my cape for now. It will hide your not really suitable clothes inside Lord Carrington's castle" suggested Jonathan.
"What's wrong with my clothes?" asked Joanna.
"I don't know what kind of clothes the people from your world are wearing but the clothes you are wearing right now aren't really suitable for a woman" answered Jonathan.
"You mean that those women are all wearing the kind of dress that are so puffy that they cannot cross a door?" asked Joanna with an arrogant tone.
"Not necessarily. Of course, you need to wear a dress inside Lord Carrington's caslte but it's not obliged to be that puffy! And Lord Carrington is very tolerant to women. He allows them to fight like men if they want to. Women inside Lord Carrington's castle must absolutely wear a dress but outside, you can wear what you want he doesn't really mind" answered Jonathan.
"This Lord Carrington looks pretty nice with women compaired to what I've heard about middle age at school" commented Joanna.
"Middle what?"
"Oh…nothing…"
"Lord Carrington considers women almost like an equal to men so I suppose that you'd better respect him a lot. I'm not sure I know any other men who can be so nice with women" commented Jonathan.
"I agree with you, he looks pretty nice with women…well…100 times better than you" replied Joanna with a smile.
"You're wrong miss. If I am as terrible as you descibe me, it wouldn't have taken long before I correct you for your bad behavior" retorted Jonathan.
"Good thing you never tried because if you dare to touch me, you will have your ass kicked" responded Joanna.
Jonathan just sighed and rolled his eyes. This woman can really be a pain sometimes… The other Joanna was better than that…

Inside Lord Carrington's castle.
Everyone inside the castle greeted Jonathan warmly. He seemed to be very known by the people living the castle. The reaction when they saw Joanna wasn't exactly the same. Some people looked surprised when they saw her and others looked litterally scared. It's like they were seeing a ghost… They arrived in a very big room where a lot of people were standing to the border of a red carpet in the middle of the room. Lord Carrington was standing on the red carpet and was apparently waiting for them. Joanna was amazed to see that everyone in the crowd had the same face as an employee of the Carrington Institute. She even seen her father in the crowd. They all looked dazed when they saw Joanna. They finally arrived in front of Lord Carrington who was friendly smiling. Joanna noticed that he looked the same as her boss.
"I am glad to see you again Jonathan. Everyone in the castle were worrying, you are late. Now I see the reason of your lateness. You brought a mysterious woman with you" commented Carrington as he looked curiously at Joanna.
"Yes, I met this lady in the area you asked me to investigate. I didn't destroyed the dragon, she did…with a kind of very powerful weapon" answered Jonathan.
"Oh really?"
"Yes, it seems that she is not part of our world. She comes from the cursed well" explained Jonathan.
There were a lot gaps of surprise coming from the crowd. Lord Carrington raised an eyebrow.
"…Are you really sure of what your seeing. Is this the truth, lady" asked Carrington to Joanna.
"Yes, I come from a parallel world…In my world, I fell in a well and I was brought here"answered Joanna.
"It seems that we finally solved the mystery of the cursed well. Everyone who fell and disappeard in it were brought in a parallel universe. But lady, may I ask you another question?"
"Yes?"
"How can you be certain that the world your coming from is a parallel universe?" asked Carrington.
"It's very simple. Everyone in this room, including you and Jonathan, have the same face as people I knew in my world. And you all seem to have the same personality as those person I knew" answered Joanna.
"Oh…I see. So you my face and the face from each person in this room match with the face of those people you knew?" asked Carrington.
"Yes"
Everyone in the crowd gasped again in surprise.
"Can you give us example?" asked Carrington.
"Of course. The face of the archer next to me match with an agent working in the same institute as me. He has the same jokey and annoying attitude" answered Joanna.
"Yes and do you have other examples?" asked Carrington with a slight smile.
"Yes. You look exactly the same and have the same attitude as my boss, Daniel Carrington. He's the leader of the Carrington Institute, the place where I'm working" answered Joanna.
"Oh really?. You amaze me young lady. And I must admit that you look exactly the same as a female warrior who already protected this land. I have a last question for you. What is your name?" asked Carrington.
"My name is Joanna Dark" answered Joanna.
"…God lord…" was the only reply of Lord Carrington.
End of chapter 4
A/N: Sorry for this cruel cliff hanger but this chapter is long enough. I try to make short chapter for this story if you don't noticed yet. It took me more time than I thought to update this story because I changed my computer (passed from a 300 to a 2.8 gig YAHOO!) and I had some difficulty to install microsoft word. How much time will it takes before next update of this story? (big grin) It depends of your reviews so REVIEW PLEASE!!!
