Chapter 5: The Laughing Witch and the Dragon Lady

I stayed almost half the night to see if Sam woke up. I was determined to blackmail her for all the pain she caused me here. And also, I really really hated her for calling me Mew Mew! But thanks to that dragon and that dream, I fell asleep. Of coarse, I got a rude awakening from you-know-who.

"WAKE UP MEW MEW!!!" yelled an annoying voice, as I jumped up and grabbed onto a tree branch. I looked down and saw the one and only Sam; bright, bubbly, and annoying as ever. Now, I knew how my internet friends feel around me.

"Did you sleep well?" she asked, as I let go of the tree branch and landed on my back. 'God of this weird world, please let this work.' I thought, as I stood up.

"I wasn't sleeping; I was just resting my eyes. It's different." I lied. I did made a pretty good combat though. "So, what about you, Sam? I'm SURE you're well rested from that battle with that weird dragon."

Sam looked surprised. Then, she bowed her head and asked, "So, you know I'm a Phoenix? Last one of my race." I nodded my head, although I was going for firebird. I heard her crying and started to feel sorry for her.

I waited for an answer like, "I can't follow you and call you Mew Mew anymore." But then, I heard giggling from the phoenix girl. In fact, she lifted her head and began laughing.

"Finally, someone else who knows my secret that is from another world." Sam said, before grabbing my hand and started to head for the road. I was confused now because this wasn't going to plan.

"Mostly everyone here knows I'm a Phoenix." explained Sam, while dragging me along. "And some of them are okay with it. But just wait 'til we get to the next town! Everyone will want to meet you and-."

My face turned blanked from what Sam explained. My plan just backfired because of the Baka no Phoenix (I put some Japanese words in it just because I was bored). 'Damn.' I thought, before I remembered.

The four people that were also here never seen Sam before. So, they wouldn't know what a phoenix is or what Sam looked like. I giggled because I had all my plans back on track.


Sam and I made it to another element town that had its houses painted purple and on top of wind mills on top of them. Sam told me this town was Wind Village. But I guessed it before she told.

Anyway, that girl told me a lot about this region's culture and history. The division was known as the Mana state until the Bandit problem came. It was also a mining core for all the other countries in the Outer Realm of this world. Also, they made special weapons from the ore that this land was rich in. Plus, Sam told me that the town's people were given special powers.

The Phoenix girl also told me about the shops and languages. The signs that had Pentagrams on them were magic and potion shops for the sorceress and wizards. The ones for the axes or other weapons were the weapon and armory shop, for the knights and Paladins. The ones with the food on them were restaurants and the ones with the barrels on them were Taverns to stay in.

We ended the tour by stopping at another light house that looked like the one in the 2nd Golden Sun game. At the top, I saw a bright purple light pointing towards the south of here.

"Is that the Jupiter Star up there?" I asked Sam, before pointing to it. 'Jeez, that's a dumb question.' I thought, before mentally slapping myself.

Sam nodded and said, "Why do you ask?" I didn't know how to explain it to Sam. I mean, all the monsters and fantasy-like creatures are fake in the world. Right?

All my thought got a little bit out of track when something entered my ears. Something that I hoped to never hear again.

"OH-HOHOHOHOHO!" laughed someone from behind me and Sam. We both turned around and saw... How should I explain it to the public? The most obnoxious, weirdly dressed lady I have ever seen!

The woman had long, silky, black hair and blue eyes that were kinda like a snake's. She was also as tall as my dad when he was standing up. Also, she was wearing a bikini that almost covered her really big... I'm not going to say this because I'm not a pervert like some guys.

I closed my eyes and covered my ears because my mom told me never to see a almost naked woman walking the streets. I didn't want to listen to her stupid laugh either but it was really really hard.

I came up with a really good plan. I will shut that gal up by punching her. So, I moved towards where I last saw her, putting a hand out until I can feel leather or skin. Which ever came first by the way.

I put my hand on what felt like a stomach, and I moved it down to feel leather-like swimsuit. Then, I pull my arm back and punched whoever I got. The laughing stopped and when I opened my eyes, I saw the woman that was laughing like a lunatic on the ground, with her nose bleeding.

The crowd around me blinked and started to clap for my victory. "Thank you, thank you. Muchos Graius. Kids, don't try it at home." I said, while bowing. Of coarse, it didn't last.

"OH-HOHOHOHOHO! How dare you hit the Great Naga!" said a voice behind me. I turned around to see the lady I punched, standing up, and glaring at me. Boy, did she look really pissed.

"Well... You were kinda disturbing the peace, so I had the right to hit you."

The woman smiled wickedly and said, "Really?" I was kinda confused, so I answer back, "Yes! Now can you please stop laughing?!"

The woman nodded her head and said, "Sure... After I hit you back. OH-HOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!!" Then, she put her hands in a bow-and-arrow position and started to make an ice arrow. Then, it hit me. She was a sorceress like Lina.

"Help! Help! Help! I'm being tortured by a big-boob Lady!" I said, while running around. Sam shouted, "Used Magic, Mew Mew-chan!"

I stopped, then deathglared at Sam. "How should I use magic?! I don't know how to!" I said, before I heard ringing in my head. I turned back to the Naga-lady again and put my hands and arms in the same position hers was. "East wind that blows, have you as their source. Gather into my hands, ignite all the force!" I chanted, when a fire-like arrow appeared, getting bigger by the minute. 'I can do magic.' I thought, before yelling, "FLARE ARROW!!!"

I let go of the fire arrow and the woman let go of her ice arrow. And they started to fly for each other. Mine shallow up the lady's one and gotten a little smaller. Then, it landed near the Sorceress and exploded.

"AHHHHH!!!!!!!!" yelled the let-great Naga, as she flew into the sky, really high. I was still confused because one, I came for a world of technology and two, how did I do magic in a world that might not be real.

'Ohhh... Great, not only will my internet friends get mad at me for not showing online for the last couple of days. But, they'll be really jealous if they found out I can do magic.' I thought, before hearing clapping again. I turned around to see the crowd cheering me and Sam running towards me. Then, she hugged me, really really tightly.

"I knew it! I knew it! You are one of her knights! I knew it and I was right!" the phoenix said, while hugging me tightly. I could have said something but I heard footsteps coming, really fast.

I looked to where I heard the footsteps to see a dust cloud. And in front of the dust cloud was a tiny figure that looked almost like Amelia... 'Holy Crap!' I thought, 'That IS Amelia!'

The sorceress princess went passed the crowd, knocked Sam to the ground, and starts to hug me, really tightly. Okay, Amelia is worst than my mom. Not only that, I was losing air.

"Oh miss, I'm glad you're safe. We saw flashing lights where me and Mister Zelgadis were staying and Zelgadis commented that the monster looked like a dragon and it was and dragon and I was so worry that you might be in it and..." she said, babbling on and on about how she saw the fight. The people around us sweatdropped and started to move away.

It wasn't long before Zelgadis ran up to our group and flopped onto the ground. By my point of perspective, he looked exhausted from chasing after Amelia. Sam was right next to him, KOed by the princess.

'How fast was Amelia running?' I thought, as Zel got up from the ground. He looked at me, then Amelia, and then Sam lying on the ground.

"Excuse me, Amelia..." he said, before poking her, "Are you sure she isn't a bad guy." I was thinking he asked that because of Stupid Phoenix girl.

Amelia let go of me and said, "Of coarse she isn't a bad guy! A bad guy would hurt someone for their own sake!" Now, I was thinking that the princess was a total justice freak who was clumsy and dumb.

"Then, why is there a girl knocked out, on the ground, next to both of you." He said, before pointing to Sam, who was now awake and confused.

Amelia blushed with embarrassment and picked her up. Then, she started to say apologizes and stuff to Phoenix Girl. As for Sam, she was still confused. And I didn't blame her. Sam was one of those dumb blonde-types, except her hair is red with yellow streaks, not all blonde.

Anyway, Zelgadis was glaring at me and Amelia was still apologizing. 'At least things can't get any worst?' I thought, before hearing an explosion.

Suddenly, the blonde knight came flying out of no where and landed near us, on his face. He looked battered, beaten up, and who knows what else. And, on cue, came Lina Inverse, Most Irritated Person on this world.

"GOURRY! I'M GOING TO HURT YOU FOR THAT!!!!!!!" she yelled, as veins popped out. My eyes widened as I looked towards Zel, who said, "He just called her a kid..." That's wasn't why my eyes widened, I widened them because I'm was still a criminal to them!(Remember Chapter 1 when Emma had the bounty on stealing the Mayor's Sword and Lina finding out about it...)

I rushed behind Sam and hid behind her. It seemed like they knew each other by looks, Lina, Gourry, Zelgadis, and Amelia.... Sounded familiar to me if anyone asked me.

My plan of hiding didn't work, because the stupid swordsman went up to me and said, "Have I seen you before?" 'Doom...' I thought.

"No, I one of those familiar faces, Gourry." I said, before realizing the mistake I made. Sam looked at me and said, "Wow! You know Gourry! Cooool!" I was so glad that Stupid Sam had my back on this.

"Hey! How do you know him?" Lina asked, before looking at us, suspiciously. I had a feeling I was busted.

"Well, I uhhh..." I said, before the short-tempered sorceress grabbed my arm and pulled me out. Lina turned pale, and Amelia and Zel blinked in confusion. It was a few minutes of silence 'til Gourry said, "Hey, you're the girl we met in Earth Village!"

"Miss, what's is going on?" the princess said, while looking at me. I was frozen, unmovable, and mostly dead.

"Miss Emma, I presumed..." said a male's voice from my mind. I looked around to see no one, so I thought I was going crazy. And... It felt like time was standing still. "If I were you, I would run away from them before they find out your secret..."

I blinked before saying, "What are talking about?" "Oh, please. You're wearing the clothes you wore on Earth. Obviously, a mere child can tell you're from another world!" I blinked, while thinking, 'He knows.' "My lord would like to speak to you... If he could find where you are right now." he said, while hearing laughter. "Who are you?" I asked, while feeling the rage to pummeled him. "Oh, Emma Emma Emma... You'll find out soon." Then, a maniac laughter ended the conversation.

I cam back to reality staring into Amelia's face. She looked really anger, like I did something bad to her. "What?" I asked, before looking into the anger faces of Gourry, Lina, and Zelgadis.

"Who are you and why did you steal a sword?!!!!" she yelled, causing a commotion. :The others came up and Lina said, "Yea, who are you?" Then, Gourry, "We met so many times, we deserve to know." Then, Zel, "So, tell us your name and your purpose..."

I stood there, thinking for a moment. There are some fights you can win and some you can lose, and this is one of the losing ones.

"/Sighs/ I'm Emma..." I said, before Sam butted in. "But I called her Mew Mew." She said, before I punched her in the face.

The gang looked at me and sweatdropped. "And that's Sam..." I muttered, before kicking her now lifeless body.

"Wow, Emma... That's original..." said Amelia, who looked at me with a worried face. I growled before yelling, "OH YEA! Well, it mean Evil Mutated-Menace Abomination!"

Now, everyone around me was worried. Okay, my name meant whole or universe in German, but they didn't know that. I wanted them to leave me alone because that's how I like it. I didn't feel so good near immature crowds at my school.

"Really?" said Sam, who was now up, with a bandage on her nose. "I thought the two M's meant Mew Mew." (And thus, that's where the nickname came from for people who wanted to know) BAM! I hit Sam in the face again and she fell onto the ground.

"Well, since you know our names, I guess there's no introduction. And we'll forgive you for stealing that sword again." said Lina, who was holding her hand out. I looked at her and thought, 'Two reasons not to go with her. 1. A cheapskate. 2. She stills thinks I stole that dumb sword. I didn't even wanted it.' Suddenly, my train of thoughts were interrupted by clapping.

"So, you DO have a name, Miss Emma." Said a very familiar voice. "I quite say, back at Earth Village, I thought you were a nobody. But after speaking with my master, You ARE somebody."

Lina and the others, including me, looked around. Sam got up and pointed to a figure on one of the roofs. He was sitting on the rooftops, carrying a staff and had kinda short, purple hair. Suddenly, it all clicked into my mind as I yelled, "OH MY GOD! It's you!"

"Xelloss!" answered everyone else, as I facefaulted. "That's his name." I muttered, before standing up. A million questions came into my mind to what this guy is. Like, what was this guy and how did he find me after being away for a couple of days?

"Easy!" said a voice behind me, "I just followed Lina and I knew I would run into you!" I turned around to see Xelloss, playing with me hair. I didn't know how he got here and I was so surprised, I jumped into Sam's arms, and we both fell down.

"Ow..." we both said, before looking at the Priest guy. Right now, I really wanted to hurt him because of his stupid smile. But right now, I'll wait.

"Xelloss! Why are you here?!" said Lina, who was looking really pissed off. Her fellow travelers, except for Gourry, were also glaring at him. Thus, leading me to the conclusion they met him before.

All he did was raised one index finger to his lip and said, "That is... A secret." All of us near him groaned, and Sam and I stood up. "He always says that." whispered Amelia, who was right next to me.

"Okay, anything else I should know?" I whispered back, before looking at Lina trying to claw at Xelloss, while Gourry tried to hold here back. "Yea," the princess began, "He's a Mazoku Priest and General for Beastmaster Zelas, a dark lord. Not only that, he killed the whole golden dragon race with one finger. And I heard a rumor he 'might' be doing it with a friend of ours..."

'Oooo... A nighttime party for time.' the sick side of my mind said, before I muttered, "Shut up." I was still getting used to the term of what a male and a female do in the bed.

It wasn't before long the ground started to shake. I looked around and saw another dust cloud heading towards us, but this time; it was a blonde female. 'What the...' I thought before hearing her battle cry.

"XEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" she yelled, before stopping a few inches from the priest's back. The woman had blonde hair, determined blue eyes and was wearing a pink dress and white cape. She also wore two big golden earrings that looked like Christmas ornaments and a pointy white hat. And her weapon of choice she was holding, an iron mace.

Everyone seem to know her, but me, she looked like someone from dream or memory. There was another awkward silence before Xelloss broke it.

"Why, hello Filia." He said, while twitching a little bit, "What are you doing on this side of th-." "Don't you dare talk to me! Nagamonai!" interrupted the now angry woman, "You trick me the other night and now I'm the laughing stalk of the Golden Dragon community!"

Everyone blinked except for Xelloss and the woman dubbed Filia. Lina looked at her and said, "So, it is true."

"Yes! It is! And thanks to him, I'm now pregnant and I'm going to have a Mazoku/Dragon Child! I thought going on vacation will relieve me of the stress but now the Nagamonai had to be here! Not only that! I was attack by a girl wearing weird clothes!"

I blinked and said, "Who are you? Why are you yelling? Why do you think my clothes are weird?" That's when Sam grabbed me and pulled me away from the group.

"Mew Mew, do you know who she is?" asked Sam, before I shook my head. She facfaulted and stood back up. "That's Filia! An ex-priestess for the Fire Dragon King Shrine and a golden dragon. I heard she quit because her own race killed a bunch of Ancient Dragons..."

"Okay... So, if Filia is a dragon, why does she look human?" I asked, while looking at her. Sam was about to answer it, before someone scream out, "NAGAMONAI!!!!!!!!"

The phoenix and I turned around to see Filia, trying to swing her mace at Xelloss, but accidentally hitting Gourry and a few other passerbyers.

Xelloss was sitting on a rooftop, smirking even bigger. "Come on, Filia..." he mocked, "I thought you would have done better with the practicing you did with the dummies!"

"THAT WAS A SECRET!" Filia yelled, as a golden, dragon tail with a pretty pink bow popped out. 'Nice bow,' I thought before realizing something. 'OH CRAP! That's the same Dragon that tried to clobbered me last night!'

I turned pale, moved my body away from the group, and then started to sprint as fast as I can. If Filia can remember what I was wearing, then she can remember then she could remember what I look like. I think Lina looked at me and called out, "HEY! Where are you going?!!!"

I looked back at Lina and yelled back, "I have an appointment with someone here! And you are slowing me down!" I still ran from them and never look back. I really wanted to go home now due to the weirdness level here.

Dragons, Sorceresses, Chimeras, Princesses, Swordsmen, Golems, Dragons, and Mazokus, this now sounded like a fairy tale to me now. 'Hey, what did the Xelloss in my dream mean about being one of her knights?' I thought, while running. But that was another question for another time.
