Hello everybody, it's been a while since my exams ended.

I had my result and they weren't great, so i will have to work harder from now and won't have a lot of time make updates.

but here is the next part. Enjoy

"GROUAAAAASSH"

Was the sound that came out of that terrifying monsters mouth who is made out of heated magma and rocks while it was trying to crush them. Asia avoid it with some difficulties. Blue wasn't crying anymore but he was laughing. did he really find the fact that they nearly died almost crushed to death by a monster who is two times bigger and taller than Asia amusing?!

'Is this brat is sadist or what?' Asia thought.

She was here because of HIM. HE was the one who had entered that tower and got them in this mess and HE was laughing about it. If she wasn't trying to get the both of them away from this monster alive and unharmed, she would have give Blue a piece of her mind.

But for now she had to focus on the monster. Unlike how he looks like, heavy and slow, he was the opposite. He however is light and was fast. I didn't found any logic in that, not that I cared about it. Right now I need to have her two arms if she had to fight it, but with Blue who she was carrying under her left arm. It was a bit complicated and luck wasn't on her side today.

At first she wanted to set Blue behind her, but chose to keep him under her arm when another magmatic monster appear behind them. From the corners of her eyes she saw more monsters started forming and coming their way.

"Why me?" She asked herself. Since the moment she had met Blue, all she got was nothing but a lot of trouble! Luck didn't seem to be on her side...Not that luck was often on her side, it was the opposite, she was rather unlucky. It wasn't long before they were encircled by the monsters and then started to get attacked from different directions. Asia had trouble trying to keep her rhythm dodging left from right keeping her feet steadied. She really needs her two arms to get them out of this safe...she took the risk to look above her and it caused her a hard hit from the monsters arm swing right at her.

CRACK.

One of the monsters had hit her hard enough to break her right arm. She was pushed to the side nearly bumped into one of the monsters getting more complicated for an escape. With only one arm left to protect herself and Blue it won't be a piece of cake but from her observation, there wasn't any monster in the air. Meaning that it is a safe area for a bit, the time she can look for an exit. She was taken out of her though when she heard the monsters groan and preparing for another attack ready to charge at them again at any moment. She didn't wasted another second as she crouched her body down and then pushed on her legs up, jumping high into the air.

From where she was, the magma monsters looked like angry leaves on the ground. She placed Blue who was still under her arm on her back, hoping that he would stay there and not let go and fall off. The monsters arms didn't take long enough to reach them, but it was only a question of time before they would fall back. Asia looked back at where they came from. The entrance that had led them here wasn't there anymore, meaning she has to find a way to get out of here. She was still in mid air when she felt gravity again pulling them dowards now both of them falling with Blue grabbing onto her long dark brown hair. She knows that if she didn't find an exit soon then they were as good as dead. And she wouldn't allow it. Now that she knows that there are people looking out for Blue, she was going to give him back to them. But first she had to look for an escape. She could feel herself fall at a alarmed speed and seeing the ground coming closer, she had to find the exit and fast. Unconsciously her brain began to work two times faster for her view to be sharper than it was already. Something like this had already happened to her.

In order to survive, her instinct would take over. It was her instinct taking over that had allowed her to survive, to cancel the pain and strike back when it was needed, to feel the danger and to avoid it. On her right she saw what looked to be a pile of rocks that in the form of a big door. If she could break it, maybe there would be an exit. Asia didn't wasted any time before to turn on her right, in the direction of the pile, and was prepared herself to go there.

She only needed to have something where she could propels herself and she could get there and the only thing she was on hand were the monsters. She hoped that Blue would grab her hair tightly enough to prevent him to stay behind. As soon as Asia felt her feet come in contact with one of the monsters head, she pushed so much force into her legs that would allowed her to be projected towards the pile of stones, she was fast enough so that their arms were no match for her speed to even manage to land a hit on her. She managed to get herself in the right position again and prepared to punch without holding back aiming to punch the rocks. With the speed and the strength she put in to break the rocks, they crack and eventually crumble on the ground.

~Meanwhile~

"YOU LOST HER ?!" The cries of Hinahoho could be heard in all Narpolia. The four of them had to cover their ears from Hinahoho's crying.

"I know it looks pretty scandalous right now but she must be out of the city by now and if she indeed has Kikiriku, then she must have left him somewhere where he couldn't get away right ?" Says Vittel.

It was for him the most logical explanation if she does indeed have Kikiriku. It didn't seem to calm Hinahoho at all. He walked right passed them and grabbed them by the back end collar of their shirts and drag them like they didn't weight anything.

"Where are you dragging us, Hinahoho ?" Asked a confused Sinbad. 'Wasn't he just scolding them two minutes ago?' Sinbad thought

"Looking for this girl. If she left my son somewhere, it must be near the town. So we are going to search all this fucking forest if we need to, but we will find them." He respond in a still pissed tone.

The four boys had answer a quick 'yes' before they gulp in fear. He could be scarier than Rurumu when it came to their son's well being. Not long after that he let them go and they ran to the closest city gate and asked the guards if they didn't saw a girl with a weird bag ran through the door. And fortunately for them they did.

''Well there was this girl. She looked to be in a rush.'' Said the first soldier.

''Yes and I think I saw her dragging some fur.'' Said the second soldier. The five men looked at each other. Luck must be on their side today for them to find evidences so quickly when the day before they had found no clue of where their little Imuchackk could have been.

''And do you remember in which direction she ran off ? '' Asks Sinbad. They nodded before to point in the direction of where the strange girl went. And after having thanked them they took in the direction that they had told and began to look for her footprints. They were lucky that it had been raining the night before and that the ground was still a bit muddy.

"Here!" Cried Ja'far after some time of searching. They all went where Ja'far was and looked at the footprint left in the mud.

" Are you sure Ja'far?" Asked Hinahoho doubtfully. How could he know that it was indeed that girls footprint.

" It is smaller than ours. Women have smaller feet because they aren't as tall as men. So, they need smaller feet to have a better balance of their body. While we needed bigger feets to balance our body. And by the looks of it she didn't looked to be that heavy and if she was indeed running, it would have slipped a bit, like here. " Answer Vittel in Ja'far's place.

Mahad nodded in agreement while Hinahoho and Sinbad looked to understand what they meant.

"Back then, we had to track our targets and needed to know the difference between individuals." Added Ja'far. With this said the five men continue their search by following the footprint left by the girl. And it wasn't a long time after that they stopped in front of a old hut whose door was wide open. Sinbad quickly noticed a yellow fruit in front of the hut.

"Look! It's one of the fruit she had with her." He quickly said before to rush in the hut. The others did the same and what they saw was the proof they needed. In a broken crib was a familiar headband. It was the traditional headband of Imuchackk. They also took notice of the fruit on the ground with two other animal skin.

" You were right Sin. She was the one looking after Kikiriku." Said Hinahoho.

" Yes, but the question now is. Where are they?" Says Ja'far.

"More like, where did Kikiriku ran off?" Said Sinbad. The four other looked at him with a confused expression.

"What?" Let Hinahoho out. Knowing that they hadn't had an encounter with her like he did. They hadn't seen her reactions.

"That girl went through a lot of trouble to get these fruits. And she is going to just abandoned them like that. Plus the crib is broken and look." He began to explain to them as he walked near the broken crib." The wood is rotten. It is easy to break it." And he took a piece off of the wood like it was a tin piece of ice.

"So, in my conclusion. Kikiriku broke the crib and went out of the hut and went who knows where. And when that girl came back and saw he wasn't here anymore, she let the fur with the fruits fall and is mostly out looking for him. If she didn't already found him." It made sense for the rest now. They were shocked to see Kikiriku's headband that they hadn't thought about it.

"She would have let some traces if she went to search for him. Following them is the best option we have right now." Said Ja'far and he went out.

"Then let's get started immediately. " Added Hinahoho as he followed Ja'far out of the hut with the three other men after him. This time they noticed the footprint faster than the previous time and began to follow them.

~elsewhere~

" And fuck." Asia crushed, it was definitely not her day today. She just had escaped the magma monster just to enter another room who had some type of vegetation growing randomly and you could see the magma on the walls. It was a weird sight, but it was quite beautiful. Asia would maybe have stayed and admire the view if it wasn't for another monster to attack her. At first she thought that the humanoids creatures made of magma had followed her, but it seems like the hole she made had mysteriously vanish. This tower was definitely weird. And what was 'weird' was usually dangerous Asia noticed.

When she felt the air around her change, she didn't hesitate to duck. Blue had landed on her side and fortunately for him, because an unknown flying creature had missed Asia's back just by two inches. When she looked at what she saw passed the sky, she saw tiny dragons made of stones and metal binding them together. They have paws composed of three toes made of metal that were really really sharp claws.

"Uh oh." She thought as she rolled on her back and grab Blue on the way to avoid another aerial attack of the dragons. She quickly got up and started to run with Blue in her only available arm. On the right, then left, again the right and duck. It was all what her instincts were telling her and she did. But it was getting more difficult every time they would try to land a hit on her. When she ducked the claws had brush her arm, cutting a bit of her flesh. Blue was on her left side because she would have crush him under her otherwise. She had only the time to see one of the dragons going for Blue that she felt a sharp pain in her back.

"Aaaarg." Her body had moved on his own and placed himself above Blue. Her white dress is slowly stained by the blood coming out of the three long freshly cuts in her back.

"Sis! Sis!" Said Blue with worry as he saw the pained expression on her face. Sweat drops were beginning to form on her face. Blue's eyes became teary, he didn't wanted to see her angry or sad or hurt. And it was making him sad. The cries of the dragons became louder and Asia knew that it wouldn't be long before they attack again. She gets up and took Blue with her left hand before to go find a hiding place in the weird vegetation. When they were finally out of sight of the dragons, Asia let herself fall back on a long leaf. She let out a pained moan when her back touched the leaf. Blue was on her lap and was surprisingly quiet. Asia took the time she had to sum up everything that had happened to her since yesterday that had gotten her into this mess.

She had come across Blue, took him with her, he had burned everything down and she had to go in town to steal, she had bumped into a purple haired boy who looked to be the same age as her and he was looking for Blue. And then she hadn't any other choice but to escape town only to discover that Blue wasn't where she had left him and now because of that she had to enter this weird and dangerous tower where she had to fight magmatic creatures and stone like dragons. And now here is she, hiding from these dragons with a broken arm and a very severe injury on her back with Blue on her lap.

"God, I can't continue like this or we're dead." She says. And it was true. If she got hit by every creatures that lives in this weird tower, then she won't last long and Blue would direct be killed. She had to think. Think about what to do to get out of this deadly fucked up tower. From where she was, the dragons couldn't see her. She needed to use it to her advantage. She tried to get up, only to feel a lot of pain in her back and feel dizzy. She was losing too much blood. She looked all around the area she was in for an exit. She saw one, it was smaller than the one she had made and the dragons attention were fixed on where she was before. She needs to be careful and needs Blue stay quiet. And lucky for her, he seemed sleepy and began to fall asleep.

"It's only now you think about taking a nap!" She exclaimed vexed. From all the places he had to take a nap, it was in the most dangerous one. So once she didn't felt dizzy anymore, she began to walk towards the exit. Making sure she was still hidden by the vegetation and Blue in her only available arm, the left one. She carefully and quietly took little steps. But it was painful and her back was hurting like hell. She had a bit underestimate the gravity of her injury. She was nearly there when she heard the dragons cry, they had found her.

But it wasn't time to hesitation and Asia sprinted towards the gate. One claw had cut a strand of her hair when she passed gate. She let herself fall on her knees before to muffle a scream of pain by screaming in her hand. It was only now that she noticed how much the muscles of her back were used, and it wasn't a pleasing way to discover it. She had wished it was the last weird environment she has to go in before she could see the sun once again and leave this fucked up tower. But fate wasn't on her side and wanted to toy with her a bit more.

Now she was stuck in a small room as big as the cave she was currently residing in. Meaning about fifteen square meters. There was a hole in the roof, letting some light out and the light was going on a coiled rope, but in this case it was stone. There was a big door with a round like form graved in it and the door had a lot of small and detailed drawings graved on. She had put Blue on the right side of the door and with her hand she traced the drawings.

Asia was wondering how someone could create a so dangerous and yet beautiful place. But whoever made this place was certainly crazy, Asia decided. She tried to open the door with the strength she had left, but it wouldn't move even an inch. When she stopped, she began to breath heavily. The blood lost was making her weak and dizzy, her view was getting weaker too. She needed to rest, she knew it. But nothing says that another creature will try to kill them in their sleep. She turned around and let her back fall against the door, making her groan, and she let her fall on the ground. That tower was tiring her out both mentally and physically. And all she wanted to do right now was screaming all the air out of her lungs or till she didn't had a voice anymore and beat the pulp out of the guy that had created this fucked up tower. She was still taking big breaths when she heard a cracking sound coming from the stone.

"Great. Another damn fucking monster." Said Asia. She had to get up, to protect Blue and to fight what was about to appear and find a way out. The stone began to unroll himself to reveal a long snake with two horns that was going backwards and like the other creatures there was magma veins. The snake eyes were jewels that were looked at here with a burning rage. She took a step on her left, farther from Blue who was still sleeping and the snake was following her with his eyes. He didn't seemed to have noticed Blue, good news. She took one more step. But this time the rock-like snake jumped on her with his mouth wide open. Asia barely avoid it and the snake mouth Enter into the wall, where it was stuck.

She began to walk further away from the snake, but her view began to blur and her legs began to fail her. She was shaking. The snake freed himself before to lunch himself at her. She only had the time to step back that the snake had attacked her and had hit her left leg, cutting some muscle in her knee making her leg nearly useless. She needed something to smash this snake head. She couldn't use her legs anymore, she would go off balance and fall letting her side open for any attacks of the snake, she had only her left arm that could move correctly. But the blood lost was making her weaker. The snake was once again stuck in the wall and was trying to get out. With now only her right legs working correctly and her left legs barely useful, she walked away from the wall till she felt something that had the same height as a table touch her lower back. She didn't turned around to look what had made her stop, her eyes were still fixed on the snake that tried to freed himself. With her left hands she began to feel what was behind her, maybe she could find something useful to end that rock-like snake. Asia was still feeling what was behind her when the snake got free and looked angrily at her. This make her panicked a bit and her hand began to search more hurriedly and her hand touched something round. The snake got ready to jump at her when Asia grabbed the orb behind her and smashed the snake head when it had launched at her. The snake body dropped on the floor with the fragments of the head.

"That was close." She breathed out as she let her arm holding the orb. She took a look at the door, it was a few steps away from where she was, but couldn't see Blue.

She limped to the door where Blue was still sleeping peacefully. It annoyed her somewhat, she has just escape death who knows how many times today because of him and finding the cause of all this sleeping peacefully when she has to get rid of that snake wasn't making her happy. Still with the orb in her hand she eyed the door before to take a good look at the orb in her hand. The orb had multiple colours that looked to be dancing together. Then she looked at the hole in the door, it had the same shape as the orb. She placed the orb in the hole and something unexpected happens. The colours that were in the orb went into the gravures of the door and spears on the whole door. Asia was amazed at how the colours would stay in the gravures till all the door was full of colours. The door was opening on his own which was surprising and annoying Asia. She didn't understood how a simple orb could open a door she couldn't even open herself.

Was it the last? Will she be able to finally leave this place? Or will I die trying? That was the question that ran in Asia mind as she walked through the door with Blue. And before she knew it, she was transported in a empty city. The houses looked like the ones she had seen in the city. But all they could hear was their own breath reasoning all over the place. She slowly started to walk toward one house. There was nobody inside, only a few furnitures in it. Asia took the curtain off and began to wrap it around her wound on her back. It took some time because having only one arm available wasn't playing in her favourite to bandage herself. It wasn't perfect, but it was enough to stop some blood from leaking out. After having bandaged herself she continued her walk with Blue in her arm. She didn't know where her legs where guiding her, all she knows is that every step she takes seems like she was about to collapse. She didn't know how much time went by when she was in front of the door of a manoir.

"Why did I walk here?" She asked herself. She had nowhere to go in this weird tower. All she wanted was to get out of here, but she didn't even know where the fucking exit was. She was only a step away from the door when it opened on his own. And she had just walked past the door that everything went black. She didn't had any energy left and fatigue had caught up to her.

~back to Sinbad and company~

It hasn't been less than 20 minutes since they began to walk in the direction of where the mysterious girl had supposedly ran off to go search for Kikiriku.

''It's weird. The more we look at it, the more it looks like the footprints are farther away from each other.'' Said Sinbad. ''Is this normal ?'' The five men had followed the footprint left by the girl. But these were rather far away from each other, like one and half time the length of Hinahoho's spear.

''No, it isn't. Even by running she couldn't have take so big steps. Her legs aren't long enough for that, even Hinahoho or Rurumu haven't legs long enough to go that far by walking or by running.'' respond the young ex-assassin. While Ja'far was trying to find some logic in this, because he is sure that the girl had average legs, Vittel looked to have found the answer.

"Maybe it could be the impulse. That girl has enough strength to break my arm with one single punch and she didn't use all her strength." Said Vittel After rubbing his broken arm who was limp, they didn't really took care of it because they were in a hurry to find the girl.

"Maybe, but this girl must have a monstrous strength then." Replied Hinahoho.

"Do you think she went far?" Asked Sinbad. Hinahoho said that he didn't know and Vittel and Ja'far looked unsure while Mahad stayed quiet.

"Probably." Answered Ja'far after some thinking. And after having let out a heavy sigh, the went back to their search.

~back to Asia and Kikiriku~

Asia didn't know how much time passes when she was unconscious. All she knew is that it was still day time because of the sunlight coming from the door. Her view was still a bit blurry and she didn't saw Blue anywhere. She began to panic a bit. If he wasn't in the same room as her, who knows what kind of dangerous situation he could have gotten in and even when they are in the same room he cause a lot of trouble. She slowly got up, her feet took some steps backwards as she was trying to get her balance. When doing so, she felt her foot touch something soft. She looked at were her foot had touched it. At first she could not really tell what she saw because of her still blurry vision. But knew that it was something blue. After her eyes had adjusted and could see clearly again, she noticed that the blue thing she saw was Blue. And he was taking a nap. Asia let out a sigh of relief, at least he did not cause any problems while she was unconscious. She bends down to pick him up when she suddenly felt dizzy.

"Crap. I lose too much blood." She thought. But then she noticed that her back wasn't bleeding anymore, at least for now. And so with her only available arm, she took Blue in her arms. And since the first time she had enter this room, she took a good look at her surrounding. She noticed that the whole room was full of items that looked to be rusty. At the other end of the room was one particular object that was more putting in valor than the other. Asia took small steps toward it to have a better look at it. It was a cup with a lot of pattern on it. There were skeleton head graved on it and other things that symbolized a brutal death. Asia wasn't someone who liked fancy things, she found them rather troublesome and useless. After all, did you already see a bear with a lot jewelry when he is in the wild or hunting?

Well the answer is no. It will only slow him down and tiring him faster out and it was the same reasoning for Asia. It was the reason she hates to wear jewelry except for the necklace of her late mother, other than this she hates jewelry. The cup was certainly intriguing, it reflected perfectly what the tower was. Her middle finger merely touched the cup when all the rust disappear and it was the same with all the other objects.

" Kukuku.Finally."A feminine voice came out of nowhere. Asia looked everywhere, but without success, she didn't know where the voice was coming from. And suddenly a woman came out of the cup. Blue skin, long wavy brown hair with rocks and gems in it, orange eyes that seemed like a wild fire and wore a provocative bikini that was pushing her boobs against her chest.

"Who the hell are you?" Asia let her though out when she saw the Blue skinned woman appears.

"Oh, well it is an expected question I got here." Said the Djinn as she crossed her arms.

"I am Gaia. The Djinn of Hate and Rage. So, will you be my queen?" She asked Asia. When Gaia looked at the human girl in front of her that held a blue human child in her arms, she noticed that her face looked just like how 'hers' would have looked if that tragedy hadn't happened.

"What?" Asia didn't understood a thing. All she wanted was to get the fuck out of this place.

"I am a Djinn. A being immortal created by our great king Solomon. I am a being made to chose people who have the potential to become king. And this place is to test if you have the potential to become a king." Gaia answer honestly. She said only what was necessary and didn't went in the details, there were things she couldn't talk about after all.

"Ookayy. And what do it has to do with me? I didn't even wanted to come in this place and all I want IS TO FUCKING GET OUT OF HERE!" Asia shouted at the end. She had to fought monsters and got heavily injured because of it and only to discover that it was all a fucking test. That was the last straw.

"I understand. But for you to leave this place, I need to find my king vessel. And since there is no one other than you in my dungeon. Then you don't really have a choice, brat." Replied the Djinn to Asia as she was on the verge of breaking everything in the room, not that she could in her state. But then Gaia noticed something weird about the girl, the rukh were different.

"I DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU NEED OR WHATEVER IT'S CALLED, YOU WILL GET US OUT OFF HERE." She shouted at Gaia before to take big breaths and to start talking again, but in a much more treating voice. " Or I will crush." Her eyes were different, her sclera was red.

It gave Gaia chills. The rukhs and these red eyes means one thing, that girl had fallen into depravity. And Djinn didn't lend their power to the one fallen into depravity, it was one of the rules, but it didn't scare her.

"You know what brat. I like you and your temper. So, I will ask you again. Will you be my queen? " She asked with a smirk on her lips.

"And if I do, I could get out of here?" Asia asked a bit wary of the Djinn.

"Yes." The said Djinn replied. At this moment Gaia knew that Asia would accept to become her king vessel, fallen or not and she has her own personal reason for this girl to become her king vessel.

"Then I accept." She says. If she could get out of here than, she would accept this Djinn conditions.

"Good, but before you officially become my kings vessel. I have to warn you about something." Gaia said. Better tell the girl that she had fallen and the cruel destiny that would await her.

"About what?" Asked Asia. Blue was still sleeping in her arms. And surprisingly hadn't woke up by the yelling that had been done a few moments ago.

"You've fallen into depravity. And before you ask me what it is, let me explain. When someone crush his fate with all his might, his rukhs become black and fall into depravity. And we Djinn mustn't accept someone that has fallen, but I will make an exception. But be aware of this, the one fallen into depravity doesn't have peaceful death." Explain the Djinn to her queen to be.

"And what. I may not have a peaceful death but that won't stop me. I will not die till I see this country burn under my feet." Said Asia. She doesn't care if she has fallen into depravity or not. Because she will still be breathing.

Tomorrow and the day after and the day after this one to...

"Hmmm. I like that fire in your eyes brat. Now one last thing. May I know the name of my queen?" If she was to acknowledge the girl, she would need her name. And the fire in her eyes when she talked about that country were clearly flames of rage, hate and wrath. In a way, it was like how she was before joining Solomon.

"Asia. My name is Asia." She said without hesitation.

"Then it's settled. I, Gaia, give you the power of the kings." And with these last words she vanished in the necklace. The oval Ruby has now a eight pointed star graved in it. And under Asia's feet appears the same eight pointed star, but bigger and teleported them and everything in the circle away. This time Asia noticed that there was a world behind her and that she was in something that looked to be a tunnel that was pushing her always from this world that held many tunnel-like things. It wasn't long before this view disappear and she was in the center of a hole where the tower was before.

"W-we are back." She says her thoughts out loud. But something was bothering her, the sun hasn't moved much since she had enter the dungeon. And she is pretty sure that hours has passed since she had enter the dungeon, even thought she had lost consciousness, but still.

"My queen, the time in a dungeon is relative. You don't know how much time passes in this world while you were in dungeon." Says Gaia in Asia's head. Asia who hadn't expected Gaia to talk in her head like that, let out a shriek.

"Couldn't you give me a warning before to do that." Asia half yelled at the necklace where Gaia was in.

"You don't need to yell, brat." Answers a annoyed Gaia. She only gave Asia a short explanation to what had happened and she nearly gets yelled at for that. So she was not really happy about this.

Asia let out a sigh before to start walking.

"Whatever, let's just go back to the cave." Asia didn't take the same way she had used when she came, Blue had taken a longer way to come here. So Asia is taking a shortcut. It took her more time to get back since she is injured and walking. After about 30 minutes she saw the cave, the fire and smoke wasn't there anymore, but it had a strong smell of smoke coming from it. But Asia didn't cared, all she wanted was to have some rest. Once she was inside, she laid down and set Blue close to her before to let the darkness come and get her.
