"Excuse sir" Chance said as polite as possible " Could you kinda move your out of the way for us please" Chance said as Felina and Jake say the girl running in the fields outside the gate Felina was get pissed off cause the merchant didn't want to move.
"Sorry Kid I'm not moving while I'm selling wares its a free country so to bad" Said the merchant as chance continued to plead him but his answer was the same as felina pushed chance out of the way she picks up the merchant collar.
"Listen you old fool were in a hurry so kindly move your stuff so we can get through points claws at his neck and no one will get hurt got it!" Felina saidas the merchant shook to get free felina threw him into a hay bail and all the bystanders was scared and ran away. Chance and Jake was shocked by this Felina looks at them with a goofy look on her face.
"Comma guys we gotta get our stuff back from that brat" Felina said as Chance and Jake nodded in agreement they step over the merchants stuff and ran out the gate and towards the field the girl ran to.
Meanwhile the little girl is running from her pursurers as the dust flew from her feet she stopped to rest her feet she looks back and sees nobody behind her as she walks over to a nearby tree she sits down and her staff flys around her as she breathes a sign of relief.
"Meow I didn't think they would follow me so soon Meow" Callie said as she falls on the green grass beneath her she starts looking at the clouds as they flew by. Callie was happy to see the puffy marshmallow looking clouds go pass her she get up and looks at the book she got from chance.
"SO Meow this is the the legendary alchemy book that master manx wants meow" Callie said as she tries to open the book with her hands. "Stubborn huh meow" Callie said as her staff came to her as she stood up she waved her right hand up and her other hand up and down in rythnm.
"Unlock Meow" Callie said as a green light came from her wand but to her dismay the book didn't open still she became disappointed
"Huh Meow it didn't work...oh" Callie moaned as her ears twitches and she sees her prusrures she hurries up and packs the stuff and runs away. Chance and the other see her running on the path.
"Hey" Chance yelled " You give back my book: Chance said as he ran faster and faster Jake and Felina was also running as fast chance as they try to catch up to the girl callie ran to a cave entrance and went in. Chance and the others caught up to the cave entrance and stopped for a minute to rest Chances feet was thumping like a heart beat as sweat came from his forehead jake kneeled on the ground as all three of them sat down to catch their breath.
"Thats one fast little brat...how are we gonna catch her" Felina said as Jake looks up and walks to the cave
"Don't worry I have an idea on wheres shes going" Jake said as Chance and Felina look at him with curious expression jake turned around and pointed his thumb towards the cave.
"This place is called Iris resting place..." Jake said as Chance got up and was amazed from his response and ran up to him.
"You sure jake this is the resting place of the famous Alchemist Iris...I can't believe it with my own eyes this is so cool I wonder if theirs any mana items left in their" Chance said as he rambles on and looks at the form of the entrance little did he notice that felina stood their in a daze looking at the cave.
"Come to me come to me daughter of Iris " Said a voice in felinas head the voice was enticing as felina walked slowly towards the cave while her eyes was just standing in one position as she walks past chance and jake they noticed something was up.
"Felina you okay?" Chance said as he walks besides felina but he didn't get a response from her at all it was like she was a machine obeying a command as chance begins following felina as Jake stands their taking notice of her behavior.
"I figured as much shes reacting to the place I better keep close watch on her" Jake thought as he walks through the cave.
Ahead Callie is walking through the dark cave with her staff Luminating a bright light so she can navigate through the caves safely as she walks through the cave she can hears snores coming in front of her she runs over and looks down and sees a bunch of monsters moving around and sniffing for live prey for them to feast on callie backed up slowly and tripped over a stone on the ground landing on her butt.
"Meow that hurt Meow" Callie said as she rubs her backside and gets up "I must get back to my master hes counting on me Meow" Callie said as she raised her hands in a fist while looking at the ceiling. She walks over to the pit and begins chanting a little spell as a blue aura surronded her the monsters took notice of this and saw thier prey all of them was growling and got ready to attack. Callie opens her eyes as she finishes her spell.
"Sleepy Bye" Callie said as her staff went up and released a smoke colored mist as it slowly covered the field the monsters was starting to slow down and pretty soon all of them dropped like flys as they begin snoring callie jumped down in the pit and tipped toed quietly as to not wake up the monster as she gets to the end of the pit the monsters started to wake up. Callie made it just in time and went inside the ruins more.
"Meow I'm almost their home sweet home here I can Meow" Callie said as she smiles over her accomplishment as she walks in a confident manner.
Meanwhile Chance was stilling follow felina who was still in a trance for some odd reason was walking towards the pit she suddenly stops allowing Chance and Jake to catch up to her. Chance looks down at the pit and say a whole bunch of monster getting up from callies sleep magic chance was shuddering from all the monsters as Jake looked at them and sighed.
"Any ideas Chance" Jake said as he shook his head no and then turns to felina who had her arms out and leaned forwards and fell in the pit head first as chance and jake ran to catch her they was to late ,but felina landed on her feet and all the monster started to growl and ready and attack her chane and Jake jumped down to assist felina. Chance pulled out his staff.
"Nows a perfect time to use the new mana item" Chance said as Jake slashes a couple of monsters and kicking a few.
"Any time now chance" Jake said as he cuts up another monster Chance closed his eyes and the blue circle appeared below his feet as he swings the staff a bright light appeared before him and revealed a card with the sleep powder on it.
"Sleep Powder Form now" Chance yelled as he moves his staff back and raised it up towards the sky releasing a clear smoke knocking all of the monster on contact as the last monster fell Chance withdrew his staff and put it away and noticed felina was sleep to jake and chane run over to her body.
"Shes sleeping chance" Jake said as he picks her body up as chance was was embrassed but as long felina was safe it didn't matter as they walked towards the exit of the mine many thoughts came to chance.
"Why did felina act like that what is her connection to this place...does it have something to do with Iris and her...bracelet" Chance thought to himself as they say a light at the end of the tunnel. They walk out of the cave and see a house in the middle Chance and Jake was wondering what is a house doing out here.
"I figured as much that girl is in league with the legendary sorceror Richard Manx" Jake said as Chance had a bewildred look on his face
"You mean the Manx of the legendary mana linege I thought that blood line was gone" Chance said as Jake set felina down gently and shook his head no
"That would be the case unless he passing all he knows to that girl were looking for" Jake said with a smile chance was looking at the house
"Well lets go then alright we can find out answers their.." Chance said as Jake picked up felina and they went towards the house to what they find inside could change on how they think about one of their own.
