Chang'an city: Chinese Tang Dynasty
630 AD ( Tang Taizong emperor era)
Amelia Watson
Ame falling into some kind of giant hall that decorated with gold and red color. A dragon picture at the wall seemed to be looking at her and roar with its yellow eyes.
At first Watson didn't care much about anything but her hips that crashing against the stone floor. She touches it and winced when the pain rush in, hopefully she didn't break
anything down there.
Ame brushing her torn up detective coat to settled some dust on it.
Where is she again? Some kind of cinematic set from Chinese dramas?
When she finally pays attention at what around her. Amelia finally sees that there are almost hundreds of men, both old and young in some traditional Chinese clothes staring
slack jaw at her from both left and right.
In front of her, there's one badass looking old man sitting on his dragon throne with a surprises expression on his face. Looks like Ame just ruining their usual routines here.
" Hi!" Ame waves her hands, but nobody reacts.
" Anybody here can speak English?" She asked and get the same reaction from them.
Everything inside her screaming at Ame that this is probably not the movie scene. So, did she time travel into this Chinese emperor palace. Real huáng shang! Should I ask
for his photograph?
Ame beating her own brain cells to find anything useful, especially the forbidden memory of what she learn about Chinese language in her high school.
" Umm…Nǐ hǎo…wǒ shì Yīng guó rén…bù! Měi guó rén… f**k I am bad at this!" Amelia pulling her hair in frustration.
If she expect these Chinese aristocrat to said " Understandable, has a nice day." Ame is surely disappointed.
After blinking at her a few times. Old man on the throne shouting something furiously in Chinese language and then a dozen of guard in golden lamellar armor actually
running from behind the throne and pointing their crossbow at Amelia's face.
Ame quickly raised both of her arms in surrendering, but these universal signs seemed to not popular during Tang Dynasty, since those guards immediately pulled their
crossbow triggers as soon as Ame has raised her arms.
Amelia concentrates enough to stop her time in last minute, walking passed those floating arrows and let the world moving again as those crossbow bolts hit nothing but the
hall floor.
When the world is running again. The emperor blinked as Ame is yelling in his face.
" This is how you treat your guest? Unacceptable! Where's your manager!"
Imperial guards quickly running at her with their swords and spears.
So, Ame guessed that her playing time is over.
Amelia quickly moving her arms and legs in a self-makes exercises.
The flapping of her arm make one credit card falling from her pocket my mistakes, but nobody notices at the moment as Ame is running and disappears in thin air.
Around an hour later when one of the guards finally find this plastic thing laying silently on the floors. Emperor and his royal courts have no idea what the hell is happening.
So, they concluded it as some kind of witchcraft and forget about it not long afterwards.
Only one of the aristocrats is curious enough to draws the picture of the event, (which is just Ame dancing in the palace halls during their morning ceremony) and keep a copy
of that American Express card inside his home.
A centuries will passed without nobody know what that card is and who that woman are, at least before one British explorer will have a chances to look at the item and
remembered his own languages.
He couldn't make senses of what written on it, but giving the idea to the picture owner enough to changes his picture name into ' A guest from the future' or something like
that.
After the opium war, this picture will be transfer back to Britain without anybody realized in its values, the fact that credit card has been throwing away during the voyage
didn't help either.
So, it's just kinda rotten in one of wealthy British who thinks of it as a funny picture. Until Usada Pekora will find it by accident during the business meeting, copying the
picture into her flash drive and give it to Minato Aqua not long after.
That picture will be the evidence of how woman from Watson family can manipulating time. And become one of the main sources of how Ozora Subaru finally finds Amelia
Watson at last.
But the funny thing is that. Despite being the woman in the picture herself. Watson has no clues who that woman is, since it didn't happened yet.
…
Eurasia: 10,000 BC
Nakiri Ayame
Ayame sitting uncomfortably on the back of her six tails fox as she is riding it to checking the line of her Oni warriors.
Since Ayame is the one who damages Hachama enough to crippling her and retreat, plus the fact that One general has been killed in the battle with Hachama.
She should've expected that they will promoted her to be the leader of Oni soldiers.
But predicting things won't make it easier for her to do. Ayame missed the times when all she has to do is jumping in the middle of her enemies and killing them as much as
she can.
Now, she has to checking the supplying for her soldiers, remembering their names and even have to sit in the war meeting and discussing the plan of what to do next with
those kings and generals who seems to be as comfortable there as the time in their own living room.
At least she didn't have to wait any longer.
Radar said that Council army will reach this planet in a few hours.
Armies of Snow dwellers ( Nousagi/rabbit people), Hunter( Cat and dog person),Undead(Those who playing with corpses), Atlantean(Those who talks with their fish.)
Magician (Those with good magic trick!) Gravity people (Those with lots of strength, though not as much as her.)Sailor people(Space Pirate.) and many more is now standing
in their positions and ranking with their weapons in hands, ready for the upcoming battles.
All of them, including Ayame is just a bait.
Their real weapons, the only thing that may defeat the council.
Is now traveling through space and time toward council meeting room.
Wherever that place should be.
They get this position by reverse tracking signal, mixing Airani Iofifeen( Painter alien. A girl who very good at drawing!) drawing map with Magician space magic, inspecting
what left of Hachama's fleets in order to knows where it come from.
After pinpoint the location. A group of best known warrior in the galactic empire called 'Fantasies' consist of
1. Shirogane Noel(Soft spoken, muscular knight.)
2. Shranui Flare( Cool Elf's princess.)
3. Houshou Marine( Extrovert pirate who thinks just because Ayame bumps into her by accident during the meeting meant they are forever friends.)
4. Uruhu Rushia ( Shycromancer)
5. Usada Pekora( Rabbit girl who loves explosives.)
And the grandmaster Magician with his best students will travel there with portal magic, hopefully that all of them will be able to beat the remaining council member while the
rest of their army is busy fighting with ally armies of galactic empire on this planet.
Everyone in strategy meeting agreed that Hachama losing probably cause council members to killed or at least expelled her away.
That's mean there are only 4 council members left. Time, space, nature and civilization.
Okami Mio ( Black wolf woman, she is very kind.) Tarot tells that two members of the council will come here and the other two will waiting in their room, Magician crystal orb
and snow dwellers satellites also have similar reports.
So, they have to take that as a fact. Hopefully that the 'Fantasies' and their friends will be enough to defeat two council members in their room and the grand master Magician
and his students will be able to sealed then away with his space and time magic.
Stopping this war once and for all.
Despite knowing all that. It's still uncomfortable for Ayame to wait and see what the council will do next, relying on a groups of people she barely knew to stop them,
managing her Oni army and surviving from all of that during the war with two council members at the same time.
Ayame knows that she shouldn't complain too much.
After all, 'Fantasies' has to meet two councils members with nothing but five of them and bunch of Magician, while Ayame has the whole Galactic empire armies literally
behind her back.
Ayame sighed and looking at the green plain in front of her again, this is a beautiful planet after all, and she don't want to see council reducing it into Atoms. As they've
already done that with her home planet and so many race in this army too.
" Are you afraid?" Familiar voices make Ayame turns toward the direction. She sighed again, but in relieft when seeing that it was Okami Mio who caught her off guard.
Not some nitpicking generals.
As Mio is riding her silver wolf closer. Ayame is going to shake her head to decline the accusations, before realizing that her own hands is shaking.
Oni girl fell in silence for a moment and then slowly nodded.
" Good." Mio smiles as she is gently stroking Ayame's head.
" Only a fool has no fear. It will help us to be careful." Mio teaches.
" Is the Atlantean army ready?" One person interrupted their private time. He is Shirakami Rei, the white fox king, despite having a newborn baby yesterday.
He is still insisting on leading his foxes army.
" We will be ready in a few minutes." A voice coming from one of the invisible fish drones above their heads.
" I want to preparing the refugees ship, in case that my wife and daughter have to…" Gawr Girass, king of the Atlantis stop whatever he is going to speak, but everyone can
heard it with their own hearts.
In case that my wife and daughter have to running away after the council kills us all.
It was a miracle that they can beat Hachama in the first battles, but will Galactic empire win against two, if not four council members at the same time? Unlikely.
Ayame gripped her sword handles tightly, trying to calm her nerves.
" Mio, why don't you throwing your cards again? It might calm our soldiers down a little." Rei suggested.
The card throwing is one of the most famous kinds of fortune telling the Hunter race will used.
Unlike human civilization. Hunters are meat eater creature that living in completely hunter gatherer life even after they've evolved enough to have their own city and
languages.
Since they were living in the planet that everything is a great plain or dense forest and their digest systems didn't evolved for eating grain and fruit, that's mean hunting other
animal is the only way to ensure their survival.
In an uncertain life like that, those who able to predict the future of where the herds of prey animals would be is the highest of their society, that's why the shamanism has its
deep root inside these Hunter society even after spacefaring era.
Even now, Hunter society's still unable to finding their new highest religious figures: Elite Shrine Maiden of The White Mountain.
After the last one died during their war against the council.
So, there is always a teaching an art of fortune telling and how to predicts the future magic normally in Hunter's society.
Only those with high talented will be able predict the accurately future, and Okami Mio is one of them.
Mio looks around and seeing that everyone in staring at her with some sort of expectation, Black Wolf sighed.
" Okay! But don't expect too much. It's gone completely blank for a very long time." She picked up her Tarot card and closing her eyes, before throwing them in the sky.
Many cards showering on the ground again while Mio is still closed her eyes. She waits for the last one to falls near and grabbing it before the card will touch the ground,
using only her ears in order to find its location.
When Mio opened her eyes again and looking at her card, she tilted her head.
" Good or Bad?" Ayame asked after a long silence has passed.
" Don't know. It is very strange. Not good nor bad. It says only that the unexpected thing will come." Mio shrugged.
" Very well." Rei snorted. " I will going back to tell my soldiers about this good news. Though, unexpected things always happen when it have something to do with the
council."
" Ouch! Ouch!"
Before the white fox king could leave, something that shouting and rolling from the slope near them grabbed their attention.
It is one of those apes again, though this one is a bit different. She seemed to be wearing some kind of brown coat and white fabrics shirt underneath instead of their usual
animal skin clothes.
Maybe she is their religious figure or something.
As this ape rolling closer to their feet, Ayame tilted her head.
Her face it a little bit strange. Blue eyes and yellow hair suggest that she is one of those Neanderthal cavemen, but her jaws is kinda smaller than those ape, and there aren't
much hairs on her body unlike Neanderthal hairy fashion. Maybe she got a cancer or something.
Anyways, Ayame knows that Mio is watching. So, she has to give this strange creature a good Oni courtesy. Like what general will do.
Nakiri riding slowly on her nine tails fox and talking with the confusing blonde ape.
"Neanderthal line is over there. You coming to wrong army. This is Oni and Hunter area." Ayame talking gently, as if she is talking with children.
" What? Neanderthal! That rude! My name is Amelia Watson." Female ape gets up and brushing dusts away from her clothes.
Ayame groaned while Mio and Rei laughed.
These Monkeys always nitpicking every different between themselves like crazy despite's the facts that they are pretty much the same. As expected from underdeveloped
sentient beings, How can she tell the difference between these apes again?
Ayame holding her head as she thinks of what king Girass tell them about these planet-natives apes during the meeting.
Neanderthal have light hair color. Denisovans have darker hair color. Erectus have smaller body than them all.
After a while, Ayame looks back at this ape again and shook her head. " I thinks you are Neanderthal. Are you sure you are not hitting your head or something?" Mio and Rei
nodded.
" What the heck? I am Homo Sapiens Sapiens! Haven't you heard of us?" Amelia yelled again, making Ayame flinched.
Why do these apes always yelled when talking? Oni glad that Magician already drawing magic circle around this area so every race can talk with each other with an ease.
Or she has to learn about how these apes shrieking and squealing mean, which is probably unpleasant things to do.
After enough laughing, Mio finally come here to helped.
" Girass, are you here? Can you tell us which races this girl come from?" She asked the invisibles drones above her head and grinned as one of them cancelling their invisible
mode and flying toward her.
It is one of those Humboldt squid that has been genetic engineering enough to be flying in the air with Atlantean technology.
Everybody is getting used to it now, except this ape.
" Woah! This is so cool! Can I ride it?" Blonde ape asks as the Humboldt squid is flying closely to inspecting her.
" Wait a seconds. Let's me open my Webcam." A voice coming from the flying squid body, before it will be releasing its ink that turning into a projector instead of normal
liquid.
After a while, they can clearly see Gawr Girass sitting in his room and looking through the camera. He is one big muscular man with silver hair and blue eyes who wearing a
blue shark hoodie. Legendary blue trident of Atlantis is laying near his desks.
For some reason, blonde apes who keep calling herself Watson gasped when seeing his face and weapon.
" Is that-" However her voice is being interrupted as Girass start talking.
" Her hair looks like those Neanderthal, but her face isn't… Maybe she is a Sapiens. I will ask my wife- Ouch!"
While he is still analyzing, something slimy and small is crawling on his back and pulling his hair.
Atlantean king hold his cries and picked the thing up. It is a shark girl that is not bigger than small cat. She is saying some unintelligible word as her father swore.
" Get out from the water tanks again. How could you…"
" Oh! Is that Gura? Hey! Goomb." Watson waving her hand at the baby shark and, to everyone surprised. Shark girl actually looking back at the ape through the camera
before opening her mouth.
" Aaa.." Baby shark said, before coughing nonstop as if her throat is suddenly dry.
" Sh*t! Her lung is not ready to breathe on land yet. Wait a minute! I will call my wife." King Girass disappeared from the camera for a few seconds before coming back with
beautiful black hair woman who dressed in leather tunic standing beside him.
The reason why everybody called Girass whenever they have problems with these natives' apes is due to the fact that he actually married with one of them. So, he is willing
to learned about them more than almost anyone in this armies.
Anyways , his Clovis tribes wife probably know which tribes this apes belong to.
" What did you call my daughter again? I haven't even named her yet." Girass asked.
Amelia suddenly coughed too as if she couldn't breathe properly.
"I mean… isn't she looks like that Gura, Goomba, George…"
She then quickly changed the subjects. " The beautiful lady beside you must be Gura's mother, right? Damn! Is she single?" Amelia wiped saliva off her mouth while
everybody else look uncomfortably at her.
The lady smiles and squeezing Girass's shoulder. " I am with him." Ame sighed in disappointment.
The lady then turned her head toward Girass. " She looks more like our clan than Neanderthal, but her hair is like them. Maybe she is hybrid or something.
Are you sure this girl is not coming out from one of your scientists' labs?"
" I never put these apes inside our lab. So, no." Girass snorted.
" Anyways, we couldn't leave her walking around and disturb our armies. Let's bring her to Neanderthal army first." Rei concluded.
" Follows this drone. Watson, I will lead you there."
Girass agreed, his drone start flying up again but slower, gesturing at Watson to follows.
" My fate must has something to do with cephalopods." Watson muttered somethings but followed the drone anyways.
…
Manta moving Castle : Atlantean army
Gawr Girass
After seeing his wife putting their daughter back in fish tanks. Girass thinking of what that mysterious ape talking again.
" Gura is not a bad name at all. Should we named her like that?"
" You are just being lazy." His wife snorted, but rethinks after recalling the memory of Atlantean person's name she uses to see.
At least it is better than Terra Del fuego or something like that.
And the G is matching with Gawr family name too. She wondered again why that woman can come up with such a good sense of naming despite having such a strange name.
What is it again? Armayria WaadSun? Even her own Clovis tribesmen have shorter name than that like Ahmik, Minda and such.
" Well, if our daughter like it. Then it is okay." She shrugged and putting her hand inside the fish tanks, smiling when her daughter quickly swimming to play with her hand.
" Do you like ' Gura' name." She asked, shark girl wagging her tail in an excitement before swimming back at the tanks floor and coming back with one of decorated seashell,
handing it to her mother.
" There. There. Good girls." After patting her daughter head a few time, she then turning her head toward Girass.
" Looks like she love that name!" Tribes women grinned.
Girass snorted in disbelief. "She is not growing up enough to understand that."
" But she did said 'A' word with that Watson woman.
Our girl must understand at least something in order to doing that.
She is growing up enough!" His wife insists.
" Knows what? You win. Now pack your things and bring Gura out of here along with the injures, women and children.
Our Manta moving castle will flying out of this solar system in five minutes. You and Gura will come back only if I…" Girass stopped when seeing tears in his wife eyes. "
When I reported that the war is over. Is that clear?" He asked, feels a little better when his wife finally nodded.
…
Okami Mio
After finish relieving Ayame from her panic states and sending Rei back to his fox army.
Mio finally have time to checking the positions of everyone in galactic empire armies.
She opened her ' Hololive' communication device, which is just a triangle things that can help them communicate with each other, coming out since Star people era.
The map option is kinda cool too. If you know how to use it.
Right now, Mio is operating the device and look at holograms of every armies in the area. Just to checking their position and confirm that everything is stand where they
belong to.
She then contacted every leader in their army to confirming their presence.
" Elf's army. Can you hear me?" Mio asked, before hologram of one elf general open in front of her.
" We already reached the position. What do you need?" Elf general asked.
Mio nodded when seeing from her hologram picture that they are already spreading in the forests and hills. Five armies of ' Fantasies'
are a bit nervous today, because their usual leader is going out to fight the council. But it's seemed that their second in command is still be able hold their own quite well.
" Just checking. Carry on whatever you do." Mio changed the frequency and talking with snow dwellers army instead.
" Are yours weapons ready?" She asked, when a hologram of blue hair man in white uniform appeared in front of her.
" All is ready for the action. Pekora probably cries from jealousy now because she will miss the best rocket shows in this galaxies." Pekora's big brother replied, he is still in a
good mood enough to make a joke. So, Mio guessed that they are doing just fine.
" Any sight of council?" Mio asked sailor people vice commander from where he is sitting inside the spaceship near this planet orbits.
" No. But we will surely see them. If they are coming within our sight." He answered.
"Finished preparing the ritual?" She then contacted undead army, knowing that no other species really like them that much, but Mio believe that every beings have good and
bad side.
And those who willing to help them here probably good enough.
Hologram of one undead general open in front of her. His red hair told Mio he probably came from Kureiji family. One of well-known undead aristocrats.
" Our Necromancers is ready, though they are not as good as Rushia.
We can only 'revive' no more than hundreds for each Necromancer." He reported.
Mio sighed, undead don't want to call what they are good at, which is basically controlling corpses as such. They use the word like revive instead, although what coming back
is always a walking death body, not what it used to be.
" That would be enough." Mio reassured him, even though she is not so sure. There probably not much left for corpses of those who fighting with the council.
So, they may never need that much of corpses controlling anyways.
Mio shuddered when remembering the time when Uruhu Rushia controlling everything 's corpses, during their fight with Hachama by merely make her eyes glow red and
waving her hand.
Sometime, she wondered again what will happen if they have to fight against undead army.
Mio checking her hologram map again, looking for gravity armies whereabouts.
" Does anybody home?" She talks through her 'Hololive' equipment when she couldn't find them where they army should be.
A hologram of dragon face popping out at her like a jumpscare box with a big roar, Mio flinched.
"… Get the camera over here!" Someone yelling as the picture move again and Mio finally see a usual face.
Himemori Hermione, queen of gravity people is dressing in her usual Star people orange uniform with brooch sword on her clothes.( A few thousands years later.
Takanashi Kiara will steal this costume from the mannequin in Hololand planetarium. But that's another story.)
She is also riding on one of the biggest dragon Mio ever see, perhaps this is…
" Kiryu Kazama! I never know you would let someone ride on you like that!" Mio burst out laughing while the dragonian king is shaking in frustration.
" That's what we want to tell you about!" Hermione explained, she sounds cheerful enough for someone who lost their son and husband by the council not long ago.
" We want to merge gravity army and dragonian together. We will have more powerful airstrike power this way."
" Dragon and knight? I thought you guys keep hating each other for like millions of years!" Mio exclaimed.
" Last time during the heat of the battles. Some dragons let our knight to riding on them. And the results are very good. I think it time to throw away a little quarrel away
when the real threat is coming.
Even though it's mean we have to working with something that uses to be our pet." Hermione laugher has been muted as the dragon under her is roaring loud enough to
make Mio ear go deaf.
But she is also laughing too. Dragonian and gravity people hatred is well known for everyone in galactic empire.
Both races always claiming that each other are just some kind of pet or slaves that somehow break free and dare fights against their rightful master.
They even requested that they don't want to see each other whenever they were in combat positions, or else they would be fighting each other instead of the council.
Mio and other generals having a headache every time they have to schedule those two races away from each other.
For Mio this is a real good omen. If dragon and knight is willingly to fight together. Whatever miracle could happen too, including their chances of surviving this war.
" Rest your army in that hills." Mio points her finger at the hills in the hologram. She then looks at gravity people's queen for the last time.
" Thank you." She said, before they cut the connection.
Before Mio could decide which one she should contact with first. Magician suddenly call her through the crystal orbs.
" Hello! This is Ayunda Risu. You might want to hear this." Squirrel magician said.
" What is it?" Mio asked.
" There is a big meteor, around three hundreds miles wide. It is flying straight to our planet. Iofi and I saw it in her map and my crystal orbs."
Mio quickly check the message from sailor people's scout ship. They said the similar thing.
" Is that Speaker of space?" Mio asked, not exactly at which person.
" Not sure. Will send drone… shit!" Pekora brother swears as a dozen of his drone is suddenly gone as they are closing in.
" Look like it has some kind of protection system. Auto lock missiles, if you let me guess." He reported after looks at the footage that being sends before his drone is gone.
" So… Guardian of civilization?" General Kureiji asked.
" One of them is." Vice commander of sailor people said, looking at the mechanic thing on the object that is clearly not natural meteor.
" Retreat now. All of your ship." Mio said at the sailor people before turning her head toward Pekora's brother. " Any idea of how to stop them from crushing this planet?"
He shrugged. " I will use drills head missiles. Sailor people have their atomic cannons. If magician will help us slowing them down…"
" What do you want us to do?" Risu asked.
" He wanted your people to use space magic, slowing that item down before it will falls on our head." Mio explained.
" Understood!" Risu said as she is summoning her nuts.
Pekora's brother checking everything before clicking the button, releasing hundreds of carrot missiles without bothering to looks up as they are flying higher up in the sky.
Sailor people vice commander, ordered every spaceship within ranges to be shooting their cannons at the meteor that still moving toward earth.
"Block this!" He snarled at the picture of the meteor on his monitor.
Elves's soldier using their spacefaring arrows and aiming at the sky, ready to shoot at the space debris that will surely come if the meteor broke apart.
Drills missiles hitting their target even though some of them is being destroyed by the laser from meteor, gamma beam from sailor people cannon is also keep burning it too.
Thanks to magician gravity's magic, the meteor is moving slowly enough to being hit by their weapons without much of resistance.
It finally gave up and broke apart, sends useless space debris to be floating uselessly in the dark universe.
Pekora's brother clenched his fist, while bunch of nousagi dancing around when seeing that the three hundreds miles wide meteor is reducing to an Atom by their weapons.
" Don't get cocky yet, quickly reloading our missiles tube first!"
He ordered
" Nice shot." Sailor people vice commander praised the crews as they are seeing that the meteor is gone from the radar.
He is going to says more but realized that there are still some parts of that meteor left, and they are flying toward earth with super speed.
"What's that?"
…
" Not bigger than 1 mile. But I can't get the exact sizes." Risu reports at what she saw in the crystal orbs.
Two smaller meteors are flying toward this planet with super speed even after passing their gravity magic.
Elves soldier shot their space faring arrows and they hit the targets too, but nothing could stop these two from keep coming at this planet.
Sailor people trying their best to followed, but their big spaceship movement are too slow. And their scouting ship that can matches meteor speed doesn't have big gun
enough to stop these two objects.
" Still not done yet?" Pekora's brother punching the table in frustration as his soldier is still unable to finish reloading their missiles pot.
He then quickly open his electric tab when seeing that they couldn't have done it in time.
" Using nuclear fusion missiles. We will try to slow them down by bouncing them back." He ordered.
…
