At the Battlefield…
The artifact was in their hands, they could finally save the General.
They trudged through the brambles and burnt land as they rushed home with what could finally save their homeland once and for all. The magnificent object from a world of magic was truly a thing to be held as the horse galloped harder than any horse has before. Her rider was proud as they would soon reach home, reach the general, become the heroes in their storybook. Rider arranged for the artifact to be placed with her horse as they charged for home. Adrenaline was massive as it was forcing them to keep moving forward with dangers lurking around them.
"Hang on Dad, we're coming… We gotta keep going girl. We're almost there." Rider breathed as her horse neighed.
Soon, the pair would be met with terrible monsters as they two were on the hunt for the relic! The Horse and Rider were not afraid as they charged into battle! The pair fought bravely on the battlefield as blades and hooves proved effective weapons. Yes, the daughter of the General proved her metal and showed her bloodline while her horse proved she was a worthy steed.
But soon they would be overrun!
"Come on Horse. We need to regroup!" Rider gasped as her steed already began to search for a place to retreat!
She dashed with her Rider as the hordes were following her with intent to close them off. But Horse was cunning and tricked the monsters to run pass them.
"!tcatni eb yek eht tub tsum uoy fi Llik !ekats ta si noitavlas s'Gnik Ruo !meht rof wol dna hgih Hcraes" A gibbons general monster with one eye ordered the troops!
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
Horse and Rider breathe as they were safe for now… Though they still hear the chants in the distance.
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
Night soon came and Rider set a fire for the two of them to rest. With some hunting and foraging skills… they were able to stock up with food for the remainder of the trip. Her father probably figured out what happened and where she went off to. Hopefully, this artifact will be more than enough to get her out of too much trouble. Rider gently touched it as she looked at the strange markings that were etched into the hoof shaped item.
Ut unum agere sed plures esse, foraminis separati sumus.
Facti sumus eterni et uniti ex magica generate.
It sounded like a spell. When she touched it, a small spark came from it!
"Ow! What was that?" Rider gasped as Horse neighed quietly with concern, "I think there is still some magic here. We better not mess with it until we can get it to Dad."
The horse nodded in agreement as they still hear the sounds of the soldiers.
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Ew tsum dnif meht! Raet siht dehcterw ecalp trapa fi uoy tsum!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
Horse huffed as Rider cuddled up to her singing their lullaby…
Slowly drifted to sleep.
The moon rose again when they were attacked!
A spear hit the ground that caused them to wake up! The monsters were coming again!
"Yeht evah eht yek! LLIK MEHT! GNIRB OT EM EHT YEK!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
"Rof Eht Gnik fo Erehwon dna eht Truoc fo Llun!"
Rider and Horse were soon riding off as they tried to escape! The creatures were fighting tooth and nail for them to be captured! While trying to protect the artifact and themselves, they couldn't see the cliff they would be running towards!
Someone noticed this and saw this as an opportunity which will not, please the creatures. With a cannon from odd materials that created it, fired at the ground of the Rider and the Horse, causing them to fall into the abyss!
Their screams and emotions… activated the reserved power of the artiface.
Ut unum agere sed plures esse, foraminis separati sumus.
Facti sumus eterni et uniti ex magica generate.
The markings glowed red!
In the Witch World…
Click! Click! Click!
Rider groaned as she heard the odd sounds around her. It was moving in rotation as she heard whistling sounds and other machinery. She looked around to see that she was no longer on the battlefield or anywhere near the kingdom.
It was a world made of brass and metal… hovering in the sky…
"What-what is this place?" Rider questioned as she felt disoriented and confused.
Then she realized something…
"Horse? Horse!" Rider called out as she tried to whistle for her steed, "Horse!"
"Oi, quiet down up there! We're trying to sleep!" A gruff voice demanded from above.
Rider looked down to see a strange-looking man in a house below her.
"Excuse me, sir. But where am I?" Rider questioned the man.
"Are you daff? You're in Brazebuilt Alley, Witch World's den of street rats. Judging by your clothing you're no different from them. Be gone with you!" The man ordered but then took a look at her, "Wait… what's with the armor and funny attire?"
"I am a soldier, you Twit! I am a soldier of the Last Kingdom of Humanity!" Rider countered the man who gasped.
"A human? In Witch World?" He gasped in horror, "Gardieni! Gardieni!"
Suddenly, flying from the sky were men in metal wings with dual swords!
"Atenție, atenție, ființele umane nu trebuie să se întoarcă în Witch World sau să deschidă ușile din ordinul marelui Suveran Dauntless Donegan. Trebuie să vii cu noi imediat." The odd men demanded but Rider didn't need to understand to know that means trouble.
She noticed something, a machine of sorts. Maybe…
"Atenție, atenție, nu încercați să evadați sau vom fi forțați să folosim forța."
"I don't know what you said but I'm not going anywhere with you." Rider coldly informed them before leaping away onto the ship, her pursuers not too far behind.
In an alleyway…
Another woman was being chased as well for different reasons.
Cursed the Sovereign for turning their world into the dump it was. Now with the restrictions, it was hard for a witch like her to find any work without getting hounded by the police.
"Alright, I think I lost those Șobolani măgar. Just gotta get back to Al's and we're having chicken tonight." She declared with a smile stretching her arms in the sky.
Suddenly, she spotted someone dodging the Guardians of the Sky.
"Ce? What's this?" She questioned as she used his gloves to create binoculars.
Was that-? A human? She had never seen one before.
Woah.
This chick was tough.
Hmmm… A human could do better in this world since they aren't easy to track.
"I think Alphonse would be able to get that extra help after all."
On the rooftops…
Rider was breathing hard as she was running out of the road.
"Atenție, atenție, nu încercați să evadați sau vom fi forțați să folosim forța." He repeated.
"Look, I don't know what you're saying but I need to head back to my world and find my horse!" Rider shouted at them.
"You're friends with an animal? Talk about Ratat!" A peppy voice joked as an odd pink feathery hair woman with an odd hat and clothing appeared in between the human and guards.
"Atenție, atenție, haiduc Kiki the Combustible! Sunteți arestat pentru folosirea magiei neautorizate, dezertare, furt, trădare și folosirea și transferul de obiecte ilegale..."
"Yeah, yeah, if we go through it all, we'll be stuck here for a year, Porci. Why not just get to the part where I kick your butt and take the human?" She smirked then activated a spell with her gloves, "Sora, appear!"
With the summon of her spell a magical tiny jellyfish with a cute face appeared.
"Familiar!"
"Yep, and you know what that means… boom."
Combining both their strengths, electricity, and fire became a powerful magic!
BOOM!
Alphonse Shady Company…
Run by Alphonse Shady himself who was being the register.
Imagine his surprise when his employee came in with a knocked-out human.
"Look who's on our crew~?" Kiki cheered.
