(Tweedledee and Tweedledum)
January 13th, 1907*
*Queen Zixi's Palace*
A few hours passed and it was nighttime as Dorothy, Betsy, and Keiko were getting ready for bed with Flynn already asleep.
"What a day! I'm glad Queen Zixi allowed us to stay for the night." Dorothy uttered in exhaustion, collapsing on the bed while Betsy nodded in agreement, lying on her respective bed.
"Same here, and we've got a long day tomorrow. Searching for a sword that chooses you is challenging so you'll need plenty of rest." Keiko responded, brushing her long hair as she had taken it down for the night.
Soon after, Keiko gently placed her brush on the table before lying on her bed.
"Oh, I should also tell you a few things before we go off to sleep for the night, care to hear them?" Keiko spoke to Dorothy again, hoping she'd agree to hear this.
Of course, Dorothy nodded, signaling that she wanted to hear whatever Keiko had to tell her.
"Of course, I'm all ears," Dorothy responded, sitting up on the bed, eager to hear whatever Keiko was going to say.
"Are you familiar with Battle Powers, Dorothy? If so, what are they?" Keiko asked Dorothy, waiting for a response as she saw the confusion on her face.
"No, I'm afraid not, what are Battle Powers?" Dorothy responded, shaking her head in denial while Keiko nodded understandably.
"No worries, I'll explain it to you. In short, It's how strong you are based on a numeric rating. Wanna give it a try? Keiko explained to Dorothy while getting up and walking over to her bag to take out a small device.
The device was a small advanced scouter that had a small button on its side.
"Sure, and that device looks quite interesting.." Dorothy responded, waiting for further answers from Keiko as the girl smiled.
"Good, now stay still while I get this thing working." Keiko responded, putting on the device she began to use to read Dorothy's battle power.
Soon after, the device's sounds began to ring, reading the power of Dorothy, and soon after, It stopped at a number.
"Wow, you have a healthy power of 13,000. Quite strong indeed." Keiko spoke to Dorothy, smiling at her while this surprised her as she began to speak.
"Wow, I didn't know the number was going to be that high but I'm glad to know I'm quite strong, also, Mind if I try it with you?" Dorothy responded, feeling proud of herself while also wanting to know Keiko's battle power.
"Oh, you don't need that since I can tell you, It's 50,000. Yeah, I'm strong as heck." Keiko responded confidently, smiling with confidence as this shocked Dorothy.
"50,000?! That's quite astonishing. No wonder why you've knocked me out with only one attack.." Dorothy responded in a surprised manner while Keiko smiled.
"Exactly, and don't worry, I've not forgotten about our training, okay? Now get some rest, we have a long day ahead of us," Keiko responded sternly while getting up to turn off the lights.
Soon after, Dorothy nodded, laying down as she did.
"Good Night, Keiko." Dorothy spoke to Keiko while getting comfortable in her bed.
"Good Night, Dorothy. We have a long day tomorrow so get plenty of rest." Keiko responded in a soft voice as she got in her respective bed.
And so the night passed peacefully, our heroes resting for their big adventure tomorrow
January 14th, 1907*
The next day arrived, and everyone was finished getting ready and freshened up for their adventure.
The gang stood outside of the palace, getting ready to depart from Queen Zixi's palace.
"Alright, so where exactly are we heading to? Is my sword at a certain location or do we just have to get lucky?" Dorothy curiously asked Keiko, stretching her arms while waiting for an answer.
"To the person who forged me and Flynn's sword. Her name is Rose, and this might shock you but she's the sister of the Wicked Witch of the North, Mombi." Keiko responded as this revelation shocked Dorothy and even Betsy.
"Mombi?! The same witch that tried to kill me as a cat, The same witch who tried to take over Emerald City, manipulated Jinjur and her friends, and was killed by Ozma?! Man, I didn't know she had a sister.." Dorothy responded in a surprised voice while Betsy nodded in agreement.
"Don't worry. She's not as wicked as her sister. But let's move on, her place isn't that far from here." Keiko responded, moving north while this was followed by everyone else doing the same.
And so, Dorothy and the gang started their adventure by walking away from the palace.
"So, about last night, how is that scouter able to read everyone's battle power?' Dorothy asked Keiko, waiting for an answer as she continued to walk, and of course, Keiko responded.
"Well, It reads your power, strength, speed, aura, and everything else in between, then it gives you a number, your battle power." Keiko responded, continuing to walk while Dorothy let out a nod.
During this, Flynn heard the conversation and he began to speak.
"And you can increase that power as well. You've probably already known this but getting strong is one of the keys to increasing it." Flynn chimed into the conversation, giving Dorothy advice while Keiko smiled, clapping her hands together.
"He's right! That's where the breathing and heart rate techniques come into play. Mastering those while using your sword will benefit you in the long run, see? I haven't forgotten about that." Keiko continued to speak to Dorothy while Dorothy nodded, giving her a thumbs up.
"I understand, and thanks for the advice, also, how are we going to find Zorya as well?" Dorothy responded once more while also feeling curious about their mission.
Of course, Flynn spoke up, answering for Keiko.
"We have to wait until she strikes. She's good at hiding and masking her presence so It's going to be challenging to find her directly.." Flynn responded in a serious voice while Dorothy nodded.
"I see.." Dorothy simply responded, continuing to walk alongside her friends.
There were a few moments of silence as everyone continued to walk across the beautiful grassy fields and unknowns to them, Alice was watching them.
"I wonder where they're going. Wait! Don't tell me they're also looking for the Sword of Oz?! I refuse to allow them to interfere with Zoraya's plan!" Alice spoke to herself, thinking about how she could stop them until she had an idea.
"Ooh, I know! Mr Swody! I summon Tweedledee and Tweedledum!" Alice commanded the sword in a cute voice, raising it into the air in hopes of summoning her friends.
Soon after, two short yet large men appeared, wearing shorts and a large t-shirt with a bowtie.
Tweedledee and Tweedledum: Battle Power: 55,000*
"Say, Alice, what's the job this time? Is someone bothering you? I can deal with them" Tweedledee asked Alice, cracking his knuckles while Tweedledum nodded in agreement.
"We'll always protect you, you know. You're our special Alice." Tweedledum chimed into the conversation while Alice smiled.
"Of course, both of you are my special friends! Now get out there and make Alice proud!" Alice responded to her friends with a smile, pointing in the direction where Dorothy and her friends went.
Soon after, Tweedledum and Tweedledee nodded before going out to take care of the heroes.
Back at the grassy fields, Dorothy and the others continued to walk a few distances until it was interrupted by a large crash.
The sound was enough to cause a small crater to form from inside the ground, and there, Tweedledum and Tweedledee emerged from the crater.
"W-What is that?!" Betsy cried out in shock while Flynn and Keiko quickly raised their swords, protecting their friends from the upcoming threat.
"Allow us to introduce ourselves. I'm Tweedledee." Tweedledee introduced himself to the heroes, bowing before them while Tweedledum was next to speak.
"And I'm Tweedledum. We're here to stop you from interfering with Zoraya's plan. Alice had sent us to dispose of you people." Tweedledum greeted the gang, cracking his knuckles while Dorothy began to speak.
"It seems Alice is a big fan of Alice in Wonderland. It's best to leave us alone or we'll have no choice but to fight." Dorothy had warned the two men, transforming into her super form, ready to fight alongside Keiko and Flynn.
After hearing this, Tweedledee and Tweedledum laughed at this before speaking.
"Oh no, we can't disappoint Alice, It's time for everyone to die!" Tweedledum responded before charging directly at Dorothy.
Tweedledum charged directly at Dorothy, using his fist in an attempt to punch his opponent; however, Dorothy quickly blocked it, using her hands as a crossarm.
"Wow, that's quite a punch!" Dorothy spoke in a surprised voice, smirking at her opponent while she quickly flew backward with Tweedledum charging directly at her.
During this, Betsy quickly found a small hole to hide in, unable to help her friends.
"Good Luck, everyone!" Betsy thought to herself, hoping her friends would come out in victory. Back at the battlefield, Flynn and Keiko battled against Tweedledee.
"Rose Petals: Rośe banquet!" Keiko cried out, swinging her sword at Tweedledee.
Soon after, a beautiful bouquet came rushing toward Tweedledee, hitting him in the process, knocking him back while he looked over to see Flynn leaping in the air, ready to attack him.
"Hurricane Blitz: Typhoon Impact!" Flynn cried out, swinging his sword directly at Tweedledee, causing a huge gust of wind to appear.
The gust of wind smacked Tweedledee in the stomach, causing him to be knocked down; however, he easily got up.
"The both of you are quite strong...I'm glad this little warmup happened.." Tweedledee spoke with a smile while Keiko laughed at this.
"Oh, I was going to say the same thing.." Keiko responded, forming a stance along with Flynn, ready to continue the battle.
"Now, Let's get serious." Keiko spoke to Tweedledee once more, charging directly at him.
