Chapter Five- Another World

As the two pounded through pressure and blackness, Cody dared to open his eyes. He found that Keria had her's open, too. She, in fact, was staring at him. In her eyes were fear. Then she spoke over the sound of wind rushing past.

"Cody, I've been in a lot of scary situations, but this is the worst." Cody only nodded and squeezed her hand. They just kept on spinning. Suddenly, Keria lost her grip.

"I can't take the pressure!" When she said that, Cody only felt more pressure, pressing him, and he wondered if the Witch Princess hadn't just said a spell to kill them slowly and painfully. Cody grabbed her hand with his, and held it firmly.

"Please- Keria, don't let go! I don't want to lose you, not now..." And then Cody went unconscious.

When he woke up, he found himself resting on a pillow of leaves. He tried to stand up, but was dizzy and collapsed back to the ground. Keria saw this and rushed over. She had apparently been sitting a few feet away.

"Cody! You're awake! Be careful, don't rush yourself." He blinked.

"Keria- wha- what happened?"

"The pressure made you pass out. I held on to you through the ride, but it wasn't much longer. When we got here, I put you down on some leaves." She explained patiently.

"Oh... any sign of the Goddess?" Cody was a little embarrassed for passing out in front of Keria, but he had to get to the point, to find the Goddess.

"Not yet..."

"Oh. It's ok, let's go look around." Keria helped Cody up, and she supported him as they looked around. They soon learned that this world that the Witch Princess transported them to was full of forest. After a little while Cody was able to walk without support. After about two hours of searching, they were getting discouraged. They stopped for a rest and ate some of the food they had packed. Then Cody realized something.

"Keria?"

"Yes, Cody?" She said curiously.

"Umm, I was wondering. HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET BACK TO FORGET- ME- NOT- VALLEY!?" Keria's eyes widened.

"Why- I don't know! The Witch Princess must have banished us forever- just for a joke!" She said, frightened. Cody thought about it for a moment.

"I think... well maybe the Goddess can help us. But we have to find her first." So Cody and Keria continued to search for the Goddess. A while later Cody heard a humming noise and stopped short. Keria stopped, looking confused.

"Hey, Keria. Do you hear that?" She stopped and listened.

"Yes. Let's follow it." She said calmly. So they did. As they got nearer the sound grew stronger. Finally Keria caught sight of something grey- sticking out of a bush! She pointed and Cody followed. The sound grew louder then ever. Cody cautiously poked the grey thing. Then he pushed the bushes brambles aside. There, in the middle of it, was the Harvest Goddess herself. But something was wrong with her. SHE WAS PETRIFIED. Turned into stone by the Witch Princess. At the sight of this Keria started to silently cry.

"It's too late... the Goddess... my friend..." Tears poured from her silver orbs. Cody gave her a hug and tried to comfort her. What a disaster. All of a sudden, a blinding light flashed before their eyes, and POOF! There was the Witch Princess. She looked angry at the sight of Keria in Cody's arms, but willed herself to speak calmly.

"Well... I see you two made it. I suppose you need to get back to Forget- Me- Not Valley, don't you. Well, unless you want to save the Goddess first." She said, looking down at the petrified Harvest Goddess. Cody nodded, still holding Keria to him. The Witch Princess took a deep breath and said some kind of spell. Then she clapped her hands. Nothing happened. Then the Witch Princess took out a book. On the cover it said: Spells, cures, and potion- making for witches. Then she flipped through the book. She stopped on a certain page and looked over it.

"Darn!" She said suddenly. When she got two confused looks from this, she explained.

"I need a light orb to complete the spell to make the Goddess back to normal. But I don't have one." By this time Keria had stopped crying and she jumped up.

"I can make light orbs! Fire and water combined makes a light orb." She said quickly. The Witch Princess was shocked.

"You... have powers!?" Keria covered her mouth with her hand.

"Oops." The same reply she had given when Cody had asked. Then Keria spoke.

"Yes, fire and water. That is what helped me survive in the Third Mine. That and my pet phoenix, Swift. But please don't tell anyone." Keria said quietly. The Witch Princess nodded.

"I won't." She said reassuringly. Then Keria started to work her magic. She placed her hands in complicated motions and seemed to be concentrating really hard. All of a sudden, she yelled:

"Fire!" And out came fire from her left hand. And then she yelled:

"Water!" And the aqua liquid came out from her right. Then she made a circular motion with both of her hands and the two elements formed a yellow-ish circle. Then Keria seemed to relax.

"There. A light orb." And she picked it up and handed it to the Witch Princess, who's eyes were wide. She nodded her thanks, still amazed, and said her spell. Then the light orb seemed to move over to the petrified Goddess at the Witch's spell. Then the Witch Princess stopped. The orb melted into the Harvest Goddess' stony body. A few seconds go by and a blinding light fills the area. When the three regain vision, there was the Harvest Goddess.

"Taa-daa!" She said annoyingly. "I'm back! Thank you for rescuing me, farmer Cody, Princess Keria."

"And Witch Princess. She's the one who saved you. All I did was give her something for the spell." Keria said, not looking over at the Witch, who was shocked to be stood up for by someone for the first time. It had seemed that Keria had finally forgiven the Witch Princess. The Harvest Goddess looked surprised at first, but then nodded her approval.

"I always knew that there was some good left in you." And then the Goddess clapped her hands together, and there appeared all 101 Harvest Sprites. Then the Harvest Goddess clapped her hands once more and she disappeared with the Sprites. Then Cody, Keria, and the Witch Princess all smiled. The work was done. The Witch Princess then said a spell and transported the three of them to her hut, again going through blackness and severe pressure, but this time it didn't last as long or seem as bad as the first time. When they got back, the Witch Princess said good- bye while Cody and Keria walked back to Cody's farm. When they got there, Cody offered Keria dinner, as it was late. She accepted and they had pasta. Then Keria spoke.

"You know, I think I'll spend the night at the Inn. I don't want to go back to that dreadful cell on the 225 floor, and I'd like to meet the townspeople. The only problem is, who should I say I am? If I told them I was the Mine Princess, they would be suspicious. You and the Witch Princess were exceptions, but I don't know anyone here." Cody thought about this.

"You could say you're my cousin, here for a visit." She seemed thoughtful.

"I think that would work! Thank you for dinner, Cody. I'll be going now." And she trotted out of his house, after he had given her a map of Forget- Me- Not Valley, and towards Ruby's Inn. Then, Cody changed and went to bed. It sure had been an exhausting day. As he drifted off to sleep, he realized that he thought Keria was more then just pretty. She was his dream girl. He decided he had to break up with Muffy tomorrow.

A/N So how was it? This one is REALLY twisted from the game. But I just had to make Keria use her powers- it was fun XD. Anyway, I appreciate all reviews!
