AUTHOR'S NOTE: Another chapter with only 2 reviews... oh well. I like writing this story so so what. And the person who keeps reviewing seems to like it, so that's another reason...

DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything or anyone except for Jennifer, Sammie, Damion, and Kyle. Man I'm gettin sick of writing that.

CHAPTER FOUR:

THE MURRINATOR

"Ow my head," Jennifer muttered, rubbing her head. Why is my bed so stinkin uncomfortable? She sat up and looked around. "Whoa!" Everything was 3D like, and she was sitting on a small wooden bridge. Definitely not my bed or room.

"Sammie?" Jennifer muttered. Her friend was nowhere in site. "Huh?" Jennifer scrambled to her feet, searching for Sammie, or Damion and Kyle, or anyone she knew. Noone. In fact there was noone on the street.

"Hello? Anyone?" She shouted. A gruff chirp answered her. A purple in color pidgeon wearing a hat poked up it's head and gazed over at her. "Hey there little guy," she said, holding out her hand. She withdrew it quickly when it came closer to her. The pidgeon was as tall as her little cousin Justin (which is about 3 feet) and it was wearing a green hat and coat. "What the?" Jennifer said. The strange pidgeon peered at her, then let out another one of it's loud squawks.

Six other pidgeons appeared, along with three huge dogs wearing masks. The dogs fired their guns at her. "That is the signal to beat it!" Jennifer said outloud to herself. She turned and started running, pass a house with a street lamp by it's door and pass a town clock. She glanced behind her. The dogs and pidgeons were far enough behind for her to slow down and catch some breath. Just as she did, a fat purplish hippo rammed smack dab into her, knocking her four feet backwards.

"Oh my goodness, I am so so--- GUARDS!" The fat hippo yelled as he charged into the group, killing most of them and leaving others severely wounded. He finished them off and came back to her. He held out his hand for her take and as soon as she took, he pulled her to her feet. "Sorry bout that," he apologized, smiling sheepishly. "I was just trying to find my friend Sly and I didn't see you until I rammed into you. Are you okay?" Jennifer mutely nodded her head and brushed herself off. First dogs with guns, now a talking purple hippo?

The hippo watched her. Then held out his fat, gloved hand. "My name's Murray, what's yours?" Jennifer slowly took his hand. "The name's Jennifer." Murray smiled at her. "Hey Jennifer. I've never seen your kind around here before. What are you?" "A human." Jennifer said, looking at him funny. "Oh, I've never heard of those before. Where you from?" Jennifer shook her head.

"First you tell me where I am." Murray looked at her. "This is Paris, France. What, were you kidnapped or something?" Before Jennifer could reply, Murray struck a "heroic" pose. "If you are, then "The Murray" can save you. Where are those varments?" He said, looking around. "Uh, excuse me, The Murray, I wasn't kidnapped, I was just..." Jennifer stopped. Should she tell him about the storm and the huge beast? He was a stranger to her, and he was a talking, purple, walking-on-2-legs hippo.

Murray looked at her expectantly, waiting for her to finish. "You were just what?" He asked. Jennifer shook her head. She didn't care who he was, she had to tell someone, and Sammie was nowhere in sight.

After she told him, he gazed at her thoughtfully. "A strange, sudden, violent storm and a huge troll-like beast, huh." His eyes suddenly lighted up. "You are one of the Holy Blade carriers!"

"Huh?" She asked. Murray was very excited, nearly jumping up and down. "You are one of the Holy Blade carriers! You and another one were chosen to weild the Holy Blade and save our world from torment caused by the evil Los Illuminados!"

"Holy Blade carrier?" Jennifer asked confused. But Murray wasn't listening. He was now jumping up and down, causing the ground to slightly shake. He's really excited about this. He's probably peeing on himself.

"I need to tell Sly!" He suddenly shouted, turning away from her and heading back the way she came from. "Hey!" She shouted, running after him.

NOTE: Since I can't think of anything else yet, and because I don't get alot reviews I'm gonna quit this story... for tonight. I might go work on my other suckish story called In Jak2. Read and review if you feel like being nice.
