Chapter Two
The girls soon met up with each other and were grateful that none of them was seriously hurt or killed in the process.
"Are you all alright?" asked Tea, voice full of concern. She looked at each girl and found that they were covered with mud, scratches and bruises. Then, she realized something.
"Rita, why did you use your secret item?" asked Tea, watching Rita fiddle with her item.
"We're too out in the open for me to tell you. Let's find go back to the…school…"she didn't continue her sentence, realizing that they were far, VERY far from the school, and continued, "Okay, never mind the school. Let's find a shelter or cave to stay there for the night."
"Wait. Not go back to the school? We already missed the school assembly, the school tour, the school meeting and we still need to get our books and stuff from the head office!" exclaimed Stelle, being the smart one in the group.
"We have no choice but to stay put until morning. We can't go find the school in the dark now can we?" replied Natti, agreeing with Rita.
"They're right you know. What about those demons and other creatures out in the forests that appear in the night? They might attack us. I don't think I would like to take that chance. Besides, remembering those boys this morning? They might attack us too, if we try to find the school," said Naomi.
With a look of concern, Stelle gave up and decided to look for the school the next day.
"Fine. But tomorrow, we have to hurry. Classes start tomorrow, and we still need to unpack our things, get our books and timetables from the head office, and also find our dormitories." Exclaimed Stelle, as she looked around her and tried looking for a nearby shelter.
"Nerd…" The other four girls whispered.
"I HEARD THAT!" Stelle said angrily.
The other girls giggled. What great friends I have, thought Tea happily.
"We should find a cave now, it looks like it's going to rain," said Natti, looking at the grey sky. They flew around the sky and for about an hour and a half later, found a deserted cave.
"It's getting cold. Tea and I are going to find some wood to start a fire," exclaimed Rita, and soon, both girls left, leaving Natti, Naomi and Stelle alone in the cave.
"I should go look for food. I don't want us to starve throughout the night. I'll be back later. Tell Tea and Rita ok?" said Stelle, and the remaining girls nodded. Stelle soon left too.
"Soo…How did you handle that boy you fought?" asked Naomi, trying to start a conversation.
"He was weak," Natti replied, with a smirk on his face, "All he did was talk and talk about his life and problems and what he was good at. It was kind of annoying."
"At least he was easier than my opponent. He looked like he was going to kill me. He's very fast and very strong. He practically killed me when he punched me in the back. That really hurt too." With that said, she rubbed her aching shoulders.
"Wow. I guess I was lucky after all. All I did was lying down there and listen."
The two giggled at one another. Soon, the girls that left returned with wood and lots of food.
"Hopefully, we have enough to last until tomorrow," said Tea, wiping sweat off of her forehead with the back of her hand.
"Hopefully," agreed Rita, putting down the broken branches and twigs she and Tea had picked up earlier.
They prepared food and got the fire starting and soon ate. After they ate, they sat there thinking.
"Hold on. Rita, didn't you say that you were going to tell us why you used your item?" asked Tea with a confused expression.
"Oh, yea… Well, you see, the boy I fought, he had scroll that had an uncommon writing on it. Like it's written on a different language. Here, look at this," she said, and took out the scroll. It said:
Αυτό είναι η αρχή του ταξιδιού σας,
Καλή τύχη σε όλοι σας.
Πρέπει να βρείτε το αιώνιο κλειδί,
Γιατί θα σας οδηγήσει στις απαντήσεις επιδιώκετε.
Υπάρχουν πολλά μέρη στο κλειδί,
Πρέπει να το βρείτε όλα.
Έφερε τη χαρά και την ειρήνη,
Πρέπει να το φέρει ακόμα μια φορά.
Έσωσε τον κόσμο μιά φορά,
Μπορεί να σώσει τον κόσμο πάλι.
Εάν το κλειδί δεν βρίσκεται,
Η γη θα πάρει μια μεγάλη πτώση.
Εξετάστε τα κλειδιά που έχετε ήδη,
Αλλά το χρησιμοποιήστε πολύ σοφά.
Ταξίδι πίσω στο χρόνο,
Και βρήκατε μέρος του κλειδιού.
"Are any of you familiar with this language?" asked Rita, looking at each and every girl.
"I-It's like a riddle, a poem," muttered Tea, looking very closely at the writing.
"What does it say?" Asked Natti eagerly.
"The first paragraph says, 'This is the beginning of your journey, good luck to all of you. You must find the eternal key, for it will lead you to the answers you seek.'" Said Tea, taking the scroll from Rita's hands.
"There are paragraphs?" asked Naomi dumbly. The others shook their heads.
"The second paragraph says, 'There are many parts to the key, you must find it all. It brought joy and peace, it must bring it once more.'"
"The third one says, ' it saved the world once, it can save the world again. If the key is not found, earth will take a big fall.'"
"The last one says, 'Look into the keys that you already have, but use it very wisely. Travel back into time, and you found part of the key.'"
"Well, that sounds…interesting…" muttered Natti, but continued, "But what does it mean?"
"Something's going to happen, and we're the only ones who know it. Let's try to figure out the first one. This is the beginning of your journey, good luck to all of you. All of you? That means whoever wrote this, he or she knows there will be more than one hero. Anyway…You must find the eternal key, for it will lead to the answers you seek…erm…okay…So, there's a key." Concluded Stelle, giving the scroll that she took from Tea to Naomi.
"Here's the second part. There are many parts to the key, you must find it all…it sounds like it broke or something…It brought joy and peace, it must bring it once more…so, something wrong is going to happen, something bad," continued Naomi, and handed the paper to Natti.
"This is the third part. It saved the world once, it can save the world again…you know, I think Naomi's right. Something bad is going to happen… If the key is not found, earth will take a big fall…okay…now I really think something really bad is going to happen" said Natti, giving the scroll to Tea to read.
"Here's the last part. Look into the keys you already have, but use it very wisely...Is it talking about the secret items?...Travel back into time, and you found part of the key."
Rita sat there thinking. Why would he be carrying something like this with him? She thought and stared at the scroll, Was it meant for us to solve this riddle, or is it a joke to fool us?
"So, it's like a quest we have to take," said Naomi, thoughtfully.
"Yea! It might be a quest for us!" exclaimed Natti, looking at the girls.
"Maybe…What if…What if the scroll is a big joke?" asked Rita, with a serious look on her face, "After all, I did get it from that boy. Maybe they wanted us to find it so they can fool us."
"She's right you know. Maybe it's all a lie," agreed Tea, although she did want to go on her own quest. The others looked at the fire that cracked in the quiet night.
"We just have to wait and see," said Stelle, breaking the silence, "Let's get some rest. We'll need it for tomorrow." The others agreed and went to sleep.
"Wait. Also, I need to tell you guys who these people are. They are soldiers of the west. Soldiers of B.K." said Rita, looking down at the floor.
"Who?" asked Natti, looking confused.
"No way! They can't be! Can they?" exclaimed Stelle.
"Oh my god…" whispered Naomi, with a shocked expression.
"Who?" asked Natti, but unfortunately, everyone ignored her.
"Are you serious? I guess that explains their abilities to fight," said Tea.
"WHO?" asked Natti loudly, getting angrier by the moment.
"Fine! We'll tell you! Jeez! B.K. is the worst gang in the western areas. B.K. stands for Bloody Knights. Whoever stands in their way, they will kill immediately. No one messes with the B.K. and I mean NO ONE," explained Rita, looking at Natti.
"But, didn't we just kick their ugly behinds just now. Didn't we?" asked Natti, with a questionable look on her face.
"You know, she has a point," said Tea, nodding her head, "We just kicked their ugly behinds…hard."
The girls agreed with Tea and Natti. It was true after all that they…and when I mean they, I mean girls…had beaten the Bloody Knights for the very first time. Oo
"We must remember this moment!" exclaimed Tea, and they laughed together.
A/N: That sucks for the BK alright! Anyways, R&R!
