Chapter 2

(Meanwhile Maya was still targeted by Tecumbalam and the warriors. So she quietly climbed down from the tree, because she could here the men talking, but she stepped on the leaves which made a sound so that Tecumbalam can hear it. Maya knows that she is in danger. She started to run away, then the men spotted her. Tecumbalam, too.)

Tecumbalam: After her!!!!

(As they got to where she was hiding, she was gone, but Tecumbalam's weapons were still there. Now he's ready to kill her. Meanwhile, at night, the conquistadors were camping out. Trowa, however sneaked out of camp, and started to wander off. He looked around until he reached the bottom of the waterfall. Then he saw a figurine in which it got bigger and bigger, then the figurine turned out to be a girl, running away from the mob, which is Tecumbalam and his men. He watched as she ran away so quickly. She can run but not as fast as they are because she was a little chubby at the time, then she ran into Trowa, and they fell.)

Trowa: Ow! Hey, you, watch where you're...

(With amazement, he looked at the helpless girl that he bumped into, then the girl looked at him, and he looked at her. He noticed that she was in pain.)

Trowa: Hey, are you okay?

Maya(raising her head): Huh?

(Then the two saw the mob men, including Tecumbalam.)

Tecumbalam(pissed): There you are! (the grabs Maya by the wrists) You think you're going to get away from this? eh?

Maya(scared): Um... Let go of me!

Tecumbalam(pissed): NOT UNTL YOU TELL ME WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO!!!

(Trowa didn't know what to do next, but he didn't want Maya to get hurt so he came to her rescue.)

Trowa: Let her go.

Tecumbalam: Eh? what's this (then he let's Maya go) A meer boy I presume?

Trowa: Don't you see what you did to the girl?

Tecumbalam: Of, course I do, She's a thief!! A rebel!!! A disgrace to the entire city, and the empire!!!

(As he was about to kill Maya, Trowa blocked his way.)

Tecumbalam: Get out of my way!!!!

(He pushed Trowa out of the way to take Maya's life away, but he heard a noise coming from the forest. An arrow hit one of Tecumbalam's men.)

Tecumbalam: The Aztecs!!!!

(Then they started to retreat.)

Tecumbalam: I'll see you next time, boy!

(Now they're gone. Trowa saw the girl trying to get up, so he helped her to her feet. As she started to look at him, she backed away, and hid behind the bushes.)

Trowa: It's okay, he's gone.

(Maya still doesn't want to come out.)

Trowa: Look, I'm not going to kill you, I'm not even one of them! I just wanted to talk, that's all.

(Maya heard what he just said, then she started to come out, and then she ran to him and hugged. She began to cry. Trowa tries to cheer her up.)

Trowa(hugging Maya): It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you.

(Then they slept all through the night, at the bottom of a waterfall. At the crack of dawn, Maya woke up first and sat up, then Trowa woke up and asked...)

Trowa: What's your name?

Maya(turns around): Huh?

Trowa: Your name?

Maya(silently): Maya.

Trowa: What?

Maya: Nevermind.

Trowa: No. Wait! You promise to say your name if I say mine.

(Maya nods)

Trowa: Well, then I'm Trowa, and you are?

Maya: You don't want to know.

Trowa: Come on, now! You promised.

Maya: Do you really want to know?

Trowa: It will be best to know.

Maya(sighs): Okay... My name is Maya.

Trowa: Maya, eh? You have such a beautiful name.

Maya: No I don't.

Trowa: Yes, you do! I think it's beautiful... Just like you.

Maya: Oh, no, I'm not beautiful.

Trowa: Don't say that, You're beautiful, see?

Maya: You think I'm beautiful?

Trowa: I don't think you're beautiful... I know.

Maya(gasp): Really?

Trowa: Don't they have a mirror here?

Maya: Only the water.

(Trowa looks down at the water, then he sees Maya's reflection on there.)

Trowa: See that?

Maya: See what?

(Then Maya looks down to see her reflection.)

Maya: Oh.

Trowa: I told you.

Maya: Well don't.

Trowa: Huh?

Maya(walking away): I'm going back to the palace.

Trowa: Wait! When can I see you again?

Maya: Soon. I think.

Trowa: I'll be seeing you, again!

Maya: Ok.

(Then Maya walks away, Trowa sees amazement when he saw her, then he heard someone calling his name.)

Quatre: Trowa!

Trowa: Over here!

Quatre: Where were you?

Trowa: I don't know.

Quatre: Well you better get out of here! There are might be warriors in there!

Trowa: Warriors?

Quatre: Uh... Yeah!

Trowa: Oh.

Quatre: So what were you doing over there?

Trowa: Looking around to see if there was gold.

Quatre: Hm... Okay, that works for me

General Kushrenda: There you are, lads, here's your shovels and start digging! We have no time to lose!
