I have to say the Amish were very pleased that they didn't have leave Wal-Mart early and I'm also very happy to introduce my second chapter! YAYA! Wahoo!
Chapter Two: Shiro City and the Castle
"Whoa," Otto said speechless.
"My words exactly," Gibson said.
"This is Shiro City, the castle is just beyond here," Kirei explained.
"Who knew such a lovely countryside could lead to such a magnificent city, Antauri said.
"Yea, pretty sweet huh? This is just one of the many other cities like it, here in Tohruu" Kirei asked.
"Yes very," Gibson said.
"So where is the castle?" Nova asked.
"Once we past Krasnai street we can take the bus to the end of the city then it's only a mile to the castle," Kirei said as she skipped ahead of them leading the way.
"Interesting little monkey isn't she?" Sparx asked.
"Yes, but what interests me is how a monkey of her age knows so much," Antauri said.
"I'm sure we'll find out soon," Chiro said.
The hyper force followed the little pink monkey into the city. It was a large city with sky scrapers and buildings everywhere. The only thing that was missing was the people. There was no one in the streets, no cars, no nothing anywhere.
"Where is everybody?" Nova asked.
"Inside hiding...Princess Tsuki forbids anyone to be out," Kirei answered.
"This princess don't sound so nice," Sparx said.
"She's not, didn't you hear me say earlier that she was evil?" Kirei asked as she stopped at a crosswalk and looked both ways.
"Unh, why are you doing that?" Chiro asked.
"My big sister always said to look both ways before crossing the street," Kirei said as she continued to look both ways.
"Um, if everyone is confined to there homes why would you be looking both ways?" Gibson asked.
"Yeah, no one's out here remember?" Otto asked.
"Eh..." Kirei stammered. "Oh right! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" she said as she playfully smacked herself on the head. "Silly me, come on then!"
The hyper force shrugged at each other and followed the pink monkey across the street and onto the sidewalk. "Here we are at Krasnai street, now where's the bus?" The hyper force sighed and shook there heads.
"There's no one out remember?" Nova asked Kirei.
"Oops, oh yeah, I don't remember me ever being this forgetful," chuckled Kirei.
"That's because she forgot," Gibson whispered to Sparx. Sparx smiled and snickered softly.
"Guess we'll have to continue to walk, bummer," Kirei said.
The sky was already beginning to get dark and by the time they reached the castle nightfall had vanquished the day. Crickets were chirping in the countryside around them and the glow from the windows of the castle guided there way towards it.
"Ok, we'll have to sneak into the back then all we have to do is find a way to get in," Kirei said.
"Why are we sneaking around? Can't we just go in the front?" Chiro asked confused.
"No! Unless you want to die," Kirei said with a cheery smile.
"Unh...ok then...no" Chiro said confused.
Kirei sighed, "Do I have to go over everything again?" she asked.
"You never went over it to begin with," Gibson argued. "At Least not very well."
"Really? Hmm...I guess I forgot," Kirei said. Gibson rolled his eyes.
"Princess Tsuki, who lives in this castle! Has taken all control over Tohruu! She's evil! And she especially hates outsiders," Kirei said.
"Ok, so if she's evil why are we here?" Nova asked.
"To save my sister of course! Didn't I tell you?" Kirei asked.
"No," Otto said.
"Oh I must have forgot" Kirei giggled. Gibson sighed annoyed, "Alright, Alright, let's get a move on."
"Wait your sister, is she a robot monkey also?" Antauri asked.
"Of course silly, what else would she be?" Kirei asked with a smile.
"She smiles way to much," Sparx whispered to Gibson.
"Your telling me," Gibson sighed. Once they reached the back of the castle Kirei searched for the any secret ways in.
"Bummer, looks like we'll have to go through the back door," Kirei said.
"Is that safe?" Chiro asked alarmed remembering her comment from earlier.
"I dunno, but I guess we'll find out," Kirei said as she opened the wooden door.
"Wait!" Antauri warned.
"Hm? What?" Kirei asked as she looked back at him then looked inside. Inside was a sink and kitchen like setting with a warm glow coming from the fire place on the opposite side of the room. "Coast is clear," she reported as she walked in.
"She did that without thinking," Antauri said. "She could endanger us all."
"Aw, I wouldn't worry about it she's so adorable," Otto said.
"Her appearance may be deceiving us," Gibson said.
"You mean she could be working for that evil princess," Nova suggested.
"Or this princess might not be the evil one," Gibson said.
"Hey you guys gonna come?" Kirei asked innocently batting her baby blue eyes.
"Unh...yeah," Chiro said as he stepped in. "Come on guys." The rest of the hyper force reluctantly followed their leader into the castle. Kirei lead them out of the back kitchen and into a long hallway with many doors.
"Ok, I heard through the grapevine that the prison cells are somewhere around here" Kirei said.
"Hey you! Stop at once!" a voice yelled.
"Huh?" Kirei asked as she turned alarmed.
