Sue Ellen was in bush country, she was in a thatch hut with these strange… yet intelligent creatures, her weapon was broken as well, it didn't seem like a problem she wanted to get out of this nightmare as soon as possible. She was looking around for some clothes; the robe was a dead giveaway she managed to change out of it in a nearby bush, cover her chest and waist with some leaves successfully and came out. No one could see her private parts or anything. This outfit of leaves was… strange very strange indeed.

"I will stay here…" she stated truthfully, she did seem content here. But the sad truth was Fern wouldn't like it because they should really think about going home.

The older creature sighed; he figured 'what was she doing?' "If you are, then you better watch out for the poachers."

"Poachers?" Sue Ellen asked.

The faerie explained, "They hunt us with crossbows."

Sue Ellen was now officially scared she could only communicate with those who spoke English, which was known as… Basic, if she were to adapt, she needed to learn the language of these creatures, as many of them didn't speak English.

She turned to the elder, "I need help learning the language."

"Well, it is one word, but many different meanings depending on how you say it like yelling 'Kupo' in fear means something is wrong and you need help."

After many hours of explaining and studying she had mastered most of the language… it was a small vocabulary, but she was speaking it in a broken dialect but luckily they managed to understand her.

"I actually think you are part of the prophecy here," the older moogle shown her the old book, "It states here that one day peace will come when the cat girl who falls from the sky shows up."

"Uhh... thanks I guess..."

"Ku po ku ku po Kupponian..." the creature replied; loosely translated he said, 'try it in Kupponian.'

She tried, "K-kupo ku po-po"

He chuckled, "Excellent, you are very welcome."

Back at the mage village, Fern had traded her robe for the traditional black mage outfit, the mages gave her a solid oak wand with a polished gem at the end of it, "I need to look for Sue Ellen."

"You don't know how to use the wand, the village is a few clicks away from here which I assume your friend has landed, but be careful, they are high strung," one of the mages warned he looked at her nervously as she looked at the wand with wonder, "I can teach you."

Fern pointed the wand out, but nothing happened.

"Not like that," he grabbed the wand and pointed it out, within moments the gem glowed mysteriously an eerie yellow color and a fireball came from it, "What you do is you think of what form of magic you want to use and it will happen, this is a starter's wand usually handed to those starting their venture to becoming a dark mage," and he handed it back to her.

He straightened up his pointy hat. As they had walked down the road with two of the mages, it was pretty much an unpaved road with fields of a strange fruit on both sides, when they have made it to the village, Sue Ellen was there; Fern was shocked, "Sue Ellen? Do you realize what you are wearing?"

"Leaves?"

All Fern said was, "Yea…"

"I am going to stay here with them; they will raise me as one of their own…"

"You can't, stop getting these crazy ideas! Do you know how long it will be if to be brought back to civilization? We need to get back to Earth, the handmaidens are gone!" There wasn't really no way going past Fern, the brains behind this operation, she actually knew what she was doing, she was thinking Sue Ellen had lost it; the cat girl in fact was wearing leaves and was communicating with the strange creatures, "We need to find a way to get home! And you to get some suitable clothes; frankly I am embarrassed of you right now; you look like someone who has lost all their clothes and had resorted to wearing leaves!"

Sue Ellen sighed, it wasn't the best outfit, but she needed to make due, "Why must you criticize me? I want to stay here; before the poachers come they need protection..."

Fern lowered her head, "You will get hurt, I worry about you," Fern looked down at Sue Ellen's stomach, she was forming a small belly, "You should probably lose some weight."

Sue Ellen was shocked, "I only gained five pounds! It is these stupid pills…"

Sue Ellen was lying, Fern knew it, "You haven't taken any; when you are ready to leave, meet me in the dark mage village."

Fern and the two mages accompanying her turned around and walked back towards the other village. Sue Ellen on the other hand went back into the hut, with the elder, she had sighed in disbelief and sat on a stool. This was a huge fight between the two girls, Fern out of nowhere criticizing Sue Ellen's actions; the cat girl was doing this by choice.

Sue Ellen had eaten some of the fruit, the town elder was a bit worried, "Don't eat too much of that, it isn't good for the non-faeries."

"Why?"

"Well it may make a non-faerie sick, for the faeries it keeps magic levels high."

Sue Ellen looked down nervously, was this path for her to take? Did she want to throw her life away by eating the fruit and getting very sick? She had nervously finished up the fruit, and got up, "It is delicious."

"No more fruit for you, we do eat some foods that humans can survive on though…"

This wasn't what she needed, she threw the fruit down, there was an extremely sour taste in her mouth and she was getting an upset stomach, but she shrugged it off as this wasn't right, she didn't want to resort to this, she needed one thing… and one thing only… to get Fern and get to a space port to get off this planet and back to Earth. Sue Ellen got up and went to sleep in the next room.

This was happening for the next week and a half; Sue Ellen and Fern were on 'no speaking terms' the cat girl was living with these divine creatures by herself. There were a few close calls with poachers but she managed to scare them off by making a home made slingshot and shooting them with some marbles and rocks. She was speaking Kupponian fluently now as the language had such a small vocabulary but was easy to learn all the words.

She learned many things, including climbing a tree really fast, to get the poachers with rocks, and using the pits of the fruit in a slingshot she made.

She was in the bush, some aardvark and alien poachers who wore camouflage as they were of average height and build as they had fully loaded crossbows. Sue Ellen looked at them, they looked at her, they were curious about her clothing as if someone abandoned her.

"Young girl?" The aardvark poacher asked, "Where are your parents?"

"K-kupo po-po..." Sue Ellen said as she spoke some of the creature's language, loosely translated she said, 'I live here…'

The poachers were speechless, and the lead poacher said, "Ok, we need to get her into town, but now to kill some of the moogles."

Sue Ellen picked up a rock and loaded a slingshot she made and shot a couple rocks at the poachers, this had shocked them and they had run off as they were almost caught by the animal protection guards in that part of Terra.

Sue Ellen ran back into the bush unscathed.

A few hours later she had come back and more poachers came, she saw the crossbows and she was shooting them with the slingshot, but the one guy shot a crossbow at her and she was almost hit, "Kupo, Kupo!" She screamed and ran off while the poachers soon got detained.

"There is a girl in there shooting us!" One of the poachers exclaimed as he was hassled by a guard, "I think her parents abandoned her and she was raised by the moogles!"

The security guard chuckled, "Well, you will have some explaining to do with this regions animal protection agency."

The guards confiscated the crossbows soon after.

And in those two weeks Fern was sitting in the hut, she was beside herself, she was far from impressed with Sue Ellen, she was wearing the traditional dark mage outfit, with the pointy hat, and dark blue clothing. She didn't need this, she didn't want to baby-sit her either, and it was a step forward losing the hand maidens even though they were lost somewhere. She was also hungry, the black mages had cooked her a dinner, it didn't have the faerie fruit in it, she nervously ate the vegetables, "I still can't believe this…"

"I hope your friend doesn't eat the faerie fruit…" one of the mages commented nervously.

Fern really wasn't in the mood, "Why? She should be divulging a plan to get back to Earth, it is her fault dragging me into this, and I don't really care what happens right now."

And Fern continued to eat dinner then she paused, as she lowered her head in sadness, "Perhaps I should cut her some slack and apologize to her…"

As Fern got up from the wooden table and she left the hut, she walked down the road; Sue Ellen was picking some berries with some of the strange creatures.

"Sue Ellen?" Fern asked as the cat girl was still wearing the leaves.

"I am sorry …"

"We need you to bring you back to civilization; it has been two weeks... going on three."

"…Fine." Sue Ellen replied.

She went back to the village and changed into the robe, it was the only piece of clothing she had.

The moogles and mages had that covered, they had taken them to the nearest city with a way to get back to Earth, and it was a bustling metropolis. But there wasn't much time to sightsee.

Sue Ellen was looking at things a bit differently, being in the bush for those few weeks changed the way she looked at the nature of things, and she essentially had learned the basic survival skills.

A half hour later they were back on Earth in Elwood City, the mood wasn't great, Fern looked like she was a dark mage of some sort, and Sue Ellen looked like a Jedi this was far from Halloween.

A sleek black car drove past them, the car was driving to the mansion the Crosswires lived at, Giorgio rolled down the window sat on the door next to Salvitore, and yelled, "Take this!" and the Benneditto's started shooting their machine guns towards the mansion shattering windows and putting bullet holes in brick and wood. They drove off as quickly as they could.

Police were quickly called and had arrived there shortly.

Sue Ellen and Fern followed the police cars as they heard the shots and ran towards the mansion; they had both walked down the familiar street Muffy lived on lined with big houses and oak trees in their yards, they had seen some police cars parked at Crosswire mansion.

Sue Ellen and Fern were shocked, Sue Ellen was almost scared, "Oh no… not here… not now…" she was almost losing it; she was almost going to shock seeing all the needless destruction from the distance.

Fern looked at her as Muffy, her parents and Bailey walked out, Fern looked at Sue Ellen and she snapped her fingers "Snap out of it…"

They had ran up to the mansion for closer inspection, bullet holes riddled the front windows, luckily no one was injured from this. Sue Ellen was hyperventilating; she was almost going to go into shock.

Buck came by he had a gruff expression on his face, he looked at Muffy, "They are after us…"

"Who?"

"The Benneditto's"

"Oh god Starla! She is going to die!" Muffy shrieked, "But that isn't possible… You killed Tony… Sonny is in jail."

"I seen Tony, he is as alive as that peach tree in your front yard, and you forgot Sonny, Giorgio and Salvatore Benneditto." Buck paused, "As for Starla and her mother, don't forget months ago she was in witness protection that is why no one has hardly seen them both."

Buck called Tony's wife and within moments his wife and his daughter Starla came by, the poodle girl was distraught of course, "What do you have planned?"

The dark mages who had accompanied them offered some help, "Come with us, get off the planet, they will give up once they don't find you," after a quick yet inept decision they had both went with the dark mages Fern and Sue Ellen handed them their weapons of the order, they didn't need them anymore.

"Guess we won't see them both for a while…"

"They fixed them for us..."

"Should we go home?" Fern asked tiredly.

"Yea."

They both had walked home with both results with their parents being shocked this was totally unexpected.

To Be Continued.
