A few months after Kate and Corin married, Kate, as was said earlier, went abroad in search of adventure. As soon as Kate went, she found all the adventure she wanted. After a year of rescuing maidens (who were rather annoyed when they were rescued by a girl and not Prince Charming), destroying dragons (evil ones), vanquishing villains, walloping witches and such like, she became rather bored. So she decided to go back home where she was sure her faithful husband was waiting.
When she got back home to England, everything was in an uproar. Kate struggled through the crowds, trying to get to her house, where she would demand an explanation from Corin. But to her surprise, the closer she got home, the thicker the crowds became. When she finally got to her front door, she gasped. The windows were smashed, the roof was caved in, and there was a big board propped up against the wall. Kate read the message quickly. Written in a large, untidy scrawl, the message read: "Ha ha ha! We have captured your precious little man. He will be kept as our prisoner and husband to our leader. Don't bother looking for him. He's as good as dead to you now." It was signed, "The Amazonian Ogresses".
Kate was furious. Everyone in Not-Really-That-Merry Olde England knew who the Amazonian Ogresses were. They were a group of uncouth, immodest female ogres, who would occasionally kidnap men to marry various women of the tribe so that they could have daughters to carry on the duties and traditions of an Amazonian Ogress. If, however, the baby they gave birth to were a boy, the ogresses would kick both father and son out into a forest near their home, which was inhabited by vampires, werewolves, and the occasional imported cannibal. Incensed by the audacity of the Ogresses to kidnap her husband, Kate saddled up her horse, polished her sword, added a feather to her helmet, placed food and drink in her saddlebags, and set off to rescue her husband (again!) with a cry of, "Yayalahoooooooooooo! I'm comin', my darlin'!"
P.S. Sorry for the short chappy, but there'll be more coming! Do not despair! And do not let this stop you from reviewing!
