"Sarah are you alrioght?" Sarah opened her eyes to see two boys hovering over her. The one talking sounded like Yves. "Oh Rowen she's wakin' up."
"Great!" The other exclaimed.
"Wha..What happened?" Sarah sat up with Rowen's help and looked around to see nothing but darkness. The only light was coming from the candles flickering out side of the barred room. "Where are we?"
"Some where deep in teh Dynasty is my guess." Rowen replied.
"The Dynasty? What is the Dynasty? Everyone keeps talking about it."
"Well, the Dynasty is an evil place. Almost like Earth, you see," Cye explained sitting beside her cross legged. "But it's evil. Those goons we were fioghtin'? They were part of tha Dynasty."
"Why do they want us though?"
"I know why they want us, but you sweet heart, I have no idea. Probably to make your friend mad. She was the Prince of the Dynasty after all remembah."
"John would never be the Prince of such an evil place. Never. She's real good."
"Why do you keep calling her John?"
"It's a joke we've been playing for about five years." Sarah pulled her knees to her chest tears forming. "I'm her kitten. Her Jakie. Jake and John are two dancers and we just took their names and used them as our nick names."
"'Ey don' cry, love." Cye wiped her tears away. "You will see her again. I promise."
"First we 'ave ta get outta dis poor excuse fer ah hotel room. They really need ta hire ah new decorator." Rowen was already on his feet examining the bars that held them in.
"The Dynasty neverah was one for style, Ro." Cye agreed standing.
Sarah stayed on the ground and watched the two as the surveyed the situation. "Who are you guys anyway?"
"Oh my name is Cye. And this is Rowen. We're Ronin Warriors. The people who are idiotic enough to fight this evil."
"Idiotic or brave, Cye?"
"I've wondered reallah lately."
"Such a vote of confidence, water boy."
"Water boy?" Sarah inquired standing.
"Yes, love, my element is water. Rowen's is the air around us." Cye explained.
"In otherah words when 'e shouts 'Super Wave Smasher' dive some where safe."
"Um right." Sarah held out her hand to shake both of theirs. "My name is Sarah!"
She smiled at them and Rowen stared not sure what to say back. He wasn't used to being cheerful in the Dynasty except with his fellow Ronins. Cye however took the initative and shook the small hand. "Nice to meet you Sarah."
"So um any luck on finding out how to get out of here?" She asked.
Rowen turned back around to the steel bars in front of him and grabbed two of them pulling at them. "Unless you can cut through metal, I think we are stuck."
"Great. Leave it to tha Dynasty to randomally get brains and actually use them." Cye groaned flopping back the floor.
Sarah stared at the bars and walked over to them. When she touched her her hands went right through them. She yanked them back wide eyed.
"Woah, how did you do that?"
"I duh know- man that's weird."
"Do it again!"
"Um ok..er..let see.." Sarah put her hands to the bars and this time nothing happened.
"What happened that time?" Rowen asked walking over to her.
"I dont know Rowen. I just walked over and was thinking of getting back home with Yves and I went through the bars."
"Try it again thinking of her."
Sarah nodded and closed her eyes. "Right here goes." She reached forward again thinking of her friend. When she touched the bars her hands went through them again.
"Do they teach you guys magic overah in America now?" Cye inquired standing with new excitement.
"I don't know." Sarah stammered.
"It's ok, calm down. This new development is good." Rowen grinned enthusiastically. "Just sit and rest and I'll come up with a plan to use this to our advantage."
Sarah sat down beside Cye quietly and the two of them watched the blue Ronin pace back and forth. Sarah looked out the one window and sighed. "John, don't worry about Jakie, I'll be ok."
