2 Wheel
Dark Sarah
The wheels are burning
The world is turning
Dragon
We keep on driving
Despite the warnings
Dark Sarah woke as the sky began lighting with morning; Dragon was still sleeping as she carefully left his embrace and warmth. She was standing on a hill as the Sun rose and revealed the strange new world to her.
It wasn't long until Dragon was beside her and gave her some bread that had nuts, and berries baked in. As Dark Sarah ate; she asked curiously: "What is this place?"
Both
Hold on tight, this frantic ride will lead us right towards
Our fight!
"This is the Upper World; the Gods rule this world with an iron fist," answered Dragon matter of fact as he prepared to leave.
"Do you really know the way to the Gods?" Dark Sarah inquired and Dragon replied simply: "Yes...The Upper World was my home!"
He gave her the wooden staff and began walking, and she ran after him. It wasn't long until they spotted some people standing on boulders near some cliffs and were dressed as pirates.
Dragon pushed Dark Sarah behind him and took on a protective stance; Dark Sarah gripped her staff tightly as they watched their silent observers. But just as mysterious as they had appeared, they also vanished into thin air.
Take a bow for yesterday
That led us to today
Take a bow for yesterday
And dream away!
"Where did they go?" Dark Sarah asked as she looked around feeling confused. "Who were they?"
"They were ghosts, they are the guardians of the air ships hidden in the desert and they live in desert camps;" explained Dragon with a frown. "We must be careful for it is especially bad for you; mortals are forbidden to enter and walk this world!"
Dragon knew that they may have been spotted and they needed lots of luck to avoid being captured. They decided to travel by night and found a cave to hide in; Dark Sarah and Dragon tried to rest as they waited for sunset.

"You know what, Dragon;" began Dark Sarah feeling a bit awkward and Dragon mumbled in sleep: "What?"
"Did I ever tell you how I ended up in both the Underworld and here?" She asked and he answered with a tired sigh: "No!"
Dark Sarah told Dragon about Sarah and how she was betrayed by love, and how she was tricked by the Queen of Serpents. She explained how she was created, separated from the light, Sarah's soul stolen and her struggles.
Then she told him that Sarah's Fate decreed a test in order to be made whole and time reset. Dragon listened silently and it felt like deja vu but it was different; he understood her blight but he will not voice his thoughts out loud.

The wind flirts with my hair
We speed as lightning flare
I feel fire in my blood
The stream is burning hot
The wheels are burning, streaming and howling!
"I must set things right and make Sarah stronger;" said Dark Sarah with a sad sigh. "Even though Light and I are apart of Sarah; I still see Light as weak!"
"There will always be light even in the darkest places;" said Dragon as he blew steam rings from his mouth. "One cannot exist without the other, there must always be a balance!"
"You said that you once lived here;" said Dark Sarah as she sat at the entrance of the cave. "What did you do to cause the Gods' ire and caused you to be cursed!"
"This isn't the first time I brought a mortal to the Upper World and it's not the first time I was banished;" said Dragon with a touch of sadness. "I committed the same sins over and over again, and my wings were cut more then once so that I could not fly!"
"Before I was casted to the Underworld once more; the Gods decided to give me one last chance to redeem and learn a lesson," he continued. "I must learn to love and earn the love of a mortal maid who has remained pure, and true; but the only thing I ever wanted are my wings and my place with the Gods again!"

"We'll find a different way to break the curse, get your wings back, and, make you and me whole again;" said Dark Sarah in comfort.
Dragon was in the same predicament as Dark Sarah; he wanted his wings back to be made whole and she decided to trust him. Night had fallen and in safety of the darkness; they left the cave and made their way into the desert, Dragon whispered: "The ghost people have outposts scattered through the desert that bunker special desert cars; I know the location of one and we can steal a desert car!"

They found the outpost; it looked more like a worn out barn and there were no guards about as they entered the building. The desert cart was shaped like a Gypsy wagon with a touch of steampunk; the driver side was a small porch in the front before the sliding door of the wagon, the driver controls the wagon while standing and there were different levers to turn, control speed, to start and stop.
Dark Sarah entered the wagon to find a large trundle bed attached to the back with wide low cabinet below. There was a small stove in the left corner near the door, a small connected kitchenette table connected to the left wall below a window with drawer-like cabinets under the kitchenette table and attached to the right wall under another window was bench-like cabinets filled with weapons and cushions on top for sitting.
Dragon
The desert rose is back, the gods will pay back! I will
Help you with your task and all that you ask
Dark Sarah
Aaaah!
Dragon came and placed two crates filled with cans of fuel below the driving control panel; there was a tube that led to the engine at the end of the panel. Four cans of fuel to fill the engine and get the desert car started; another can gets it moving as Dark Sarah opens the barn doors and hop in.
It wasn't long until they were gaining some speed and with the feeling of wind in their faces. Dragon and Dark Sarah gave whoops of joy as they sped into the desert night.
