2 We saved the citizens!

"Ashley, wake up!" Zeolite said shaking her shoulder, "zzz…" Ashley snores lightly, "Wake up. Now!" Zeolite shout on her ear, "Ouch! Ow ow! Who's shouting?!" Ashley said surprised, covering her ear. "Good. You're awake. We've got companions." Zeolite said, he unsheathed his swords, "what do you mean by companions?" Ashley ask stretching her body, "look around." Zeolite reply. She obeyed immediately, and began to look around, their surroundings is filled with skeletons army.

"Soo, we're fighting?" Ashley ask, cold breeze lingering around her fists, "Yea, we'll just gonna defense ourselves until these three come back." Zeolite said, before using his spells, "hah, what were these three doing anyway?" Ashley ask while punching the skeletons, "I see them running to that tall building, they say they have to destroy the core of the barrier." Zeolite said, slashing the skeletons afterwards.

"So we can't get out before they destroy it?" Ashley ask again, kicking the skeletons heads. "Yea, it's pretty much like that." Zeolite reply before finishing the last skeletons. "All clear. How about you?" Zeolite ask, his sword rest on his shoulder.

"Done. Wait, someone approaching…" Ashley said looking at their back, a man approach them, while clapping his hand "Well, well, well. Quite show you guys put huh?" he said smirking. "Who are you?" Zeolite ask taking a battle stance. "Greetings, my name is Dan. A member of the dark guild you're looking for." He said bowing a little.

"Zeo, take care of that guy, I sense another presence." Ashley whisper, "How much?" Zeolite ask "I think…three along with him." Ashley said. She turn around suddenly and said "Ice Barrier!" her barrier nearly broke, a spear fall off of the barrier.

"Oh, we've got a sharp lady here." A woman who launch the spear said, "two. The other one must be…Zeolite! Behind you!" Ashley said, Zeolite quickly turns around and block the sword, "Hahaha! Pretty good!" He laugh before jumping backwards. "Tch, this is bad." Zeolite muttered.

"Haaa!! Theresa! Go now!" Hector shout while blocking the enemy swords, "Y-Yes!" Theresa quickly run upstairs, "Your not getting away young lady!" the man who fought with Hector said, he proceed to run after her, but Hector grab his hand, "Your opponent is me, not her!" Hector shout headbutting him, Hector raised his face and shout "Arkus! Help her!" "Aye, Aye Master!" Arkus nod, transformation circle appeared around him, light engulfed his body, when the light go down, it revealed a big fox. Arkus run near Theresa, and bowed down a little so she can ride him, she quickly sit on his back, Arkus immediately run upstairs, until they arrived at the highest floor.

"There it is!" Theresa said, she jumped off of his back, and run towards the core, "look out!" Arkus shout, pushing Theresa body aside, "Ouch, that's hurt…" Theresa groan rubbing her head, she look in front of her, Arkus body falls on the floor, "Arkus! Are you okay?" Theresa ask she quickly approach him. A footsteps is heard behind her, "Who are you?" Theresa ask turning around, "My names? You can call me Kami, cause I'm the god itself!" A woman laugh.

"I see…you're not as devine as I thought, "Kami"." Theresa smirk, fire casts around her fists, "How dare you?!" Kami snapped, "I'll show you my greatness!" Kami shout.

"Come then!" Theresa said, she punch her enemy guts, Kami stumbled a little, Kami look around for her opponents, but Theresa is nowhere to be seen, until she look up, Theresa fist contact with her head, because of the force, Kami face immediately hit the floor, and cause a craters to create. "You dead yet?" Theresa ask, Kami body responded with a shivers, Theresa nod, and goes to the core, she punched it, the core released a white beam, blinding her for a while, "I'm nearly go blind." She said shaking her head, she goes to Arkus, and shook his body.

"I know you're awake, You're shifting before." Theresa giggles, Arkus grinned and snuggled into her, "It's relaxing to not being ordered around." Arkus said, "oh, we should get back, I'm worried about Hector." Theresa said patting his head, "Yeah, yeah, hop on." Arkus said he bow down a little, "Thank you Arkus." Theresa smile, "no problem, just give me a meat later!" Arkus laugh.

"My god, you're troublesome." Hector panted, "Hahaha…your pretty good kid." His enemy laugh, he's been badly injured, but somehow, he can still laugh. "Man, can you stop laughing? It's making me sick." Hector groaned, the man just laugh louder, "Haa!" Hector shout slashing his enemy, "Slow! Slow!" His enemy taunted.

Hector ignore him, he use his leg to kick his head, his enemy knocked across the room. Hector sigh, and wipes his sweats, "Hector!" Theresa voice called, Hector turns towards the stairs, these two stops near him. "You guys done?" Hector ask, his hand on his hips, "Yea, we should hurry." Theresa said she get down from Arkus back, as he transform back into a fluffball. "Master!" Arkus said jumping to his shoulder, and snuggled his head to his cheek. "Stop it!" Hector protest.

"You're late." Zeolite said who is sitting in the beaten enemy, "Sorry, meet some crazy dude before." Hector said, "Citizens! The barrier is no longer active, you can come out!" Ashley said, the citizens slowly come out, when they see that barrier is nowhere, they cheered happily, shortly the mayor quickly approach them.

"Young adventures! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" He bowed, "um, sir, you don't need to bow." Theresa said feeling uneasy when he bowed, "No! No! Thank you! We've been trapped here in a weeks! Here earn this! This is the prize we promised!" The mayor said shoving the bag of shards to Zeolite. "Thank you sir, we're gonna go to the dark guild now, please take care." Zeolite bow, "Be careful young man! The cursed forest is dangerous!" the mayor said warning them, "We'll take our leave now." Zeolite said.

Someone suddenly tugged on both Theresa and Hector, the two turns around and see a kid, "what's wrong?" Theresa ask, kneeling down a little, "Are you two a couple? You seems close to each other." The kid ask innocently, when the two hear this, Theresa blush furiously, while Hector look away, "There you are son! I'm sorry! Son! Don't say that randomly! I'm sorry!" the mom of the kid said apologizing, and dragged her son with her.

"Errr…this is awkward…" Hector said scratching his neck, "um…yea. We should get going." Theresa said, Hector look around for his friends, but they're nowhere, until Theresa called him, "They leave. I guess it's just the two of us…" Theresa said while holding a letter, the letter is:

'If you two are reading this…we'll already leaving to the dark guild! Ask around the citizens if you want to come! Since you two are being lovey-dovey and we can't just interrupt, so yeah, come get us if you want. Later!'

-Your very dear friend, Ashley, Zeolite and Arkus

"I can see the smirk on their face..." Hector said a tick mark appeared on his head, "Uhh, I'm going to ask the mayor, would you help me out?" Theresa ask, "sure, right behind you." Hector said holding a thumbs up.
