Strena The Voyage Part Nine

 Docking It was a week after the ships came and they could see the sand of the Desert Planes. Strena felt a smile on her face. She felt her heartbeat increase as every cell in her body teemed with excitement. She was finally retiring home. She was really returning home. Her eyes lit up with a sense of nostalgia as she looked at the pyramids. Then the buildings and the people. Yet, as she looked at them, she noticed how dark their skins were darker than her’s. Maybe my skin will become as dark as it ought to be. Yet, as she looked at Zaryb she remembered the truth. Then she felt her excitement turn to focus. After all, she knew that this would help her learn more of the truth of her father. She also knew that she would have to be careful too. She could not afford anyone recognizing her. She also knew that this would be the place where her identity would most likely be exposed. “Are you-” “No. Just fealing……I don’t know.” Her eyes narrowed. “Not scared, but…..” “Concerned.” She nodd...

Strena The Voyage Part Eight

 A Defended Ship It had been a month and Strena had been training her magic and violin skills. Yet Zaryb covered her fighting skills and made sure that they were all at their peak for her age. During this time at night she wrote down all that they did and enjoyed her time with Bash. Bash had shown her how to truly laugh again and, even though she could tell that the girl was far from a feminine girl by nature, how to be a girl again. To not be this emotionless killing tool and weapon but a real girl, the version of herself untainted by her upbringing. Which, she found, she loved most. On the other hand, when he was not teaching her violin, Cerpheres played tag, hide and seek and all other childish games. This made her feel like an ordinary child again. These things she treasured dearly as she knew that her time in partaking in such things was running out. It was one of these mornings,when Cerpheres was playing tag with her, he tagged her and, as she chased the man to the downstairs...

Strena The Voyage Part Seven

 Magical Training Strena was still practicing on her violin. She finished her piece when she saw Chashathrophogh and Bash walking on the deck. He had a determined look in his eyes. She tried to ignore this as she put her violin away.  “Right, time to train you two!” He called. “You need to strengthen your magic.” Strena felt her ear prick. She wanted to stay and watch but she knew that the longer that she stayed the more suspicious Chashathrophogh would become. Then the more suspicious he would become, the more likely it would be that he would figure out what she was. Then it would be only a matter of time until he would kill her. So she walked to the door and reached out to the doorknob. “That includes you, Strena!” She closed her eyes in dread as her heart beat increased. Yet she thought that she could not out of this by playing like she did not know what he was talking about. “What?” She asked as innocently as she could. “Oh come on, you’re a child born out of wedlock.” “Wh...

Strena The Voyage Part Six

 Taken Ship It was late at night when Captain Loofahtuom woke up from his long nap. Which, for him, was quite unusual. After all, he never fell asleep on the wheel. No, the last thing that he remembered was sailing, then he felt a powerful and overwhelming tiredness overcome him like a tsunami. Yet he resisted the drowsiness, but, regardless of how much he tried, he could not resist it for long. After all, the tiredness became worse and worse and worse and more powerful. It built until his eyes closed and sleep overcame him. Yet, all in all, the Navy should have killed the Prince Captain. Yes, there will be no pirates or rumoured pirates of the sort on his ship. Over his dead body he would tolerate something like that! Who knew what a troublesome man like that would bring? “Good night Sir Captain!” Purred a voice in his ear. He went to thrust a hand back as he looked back. He looked ahead in bewilderment as his eyes rested upon none other that the Prince Captain himself! “What! You...

Strena The Voyage Part Five

 The Prince Captain  Versus  The Navy Captain  Strena put her violin to her chin as she stood there with Cerpheres as she played her tune. It was long and steady. He was teaching her to hold long notes and how to play slowly. This was to help her to change the notes that she played. She found that she quite enjoyed the slow and sombre tune. It brought her clarity of mind and thoughts. This also helped her notice the ship in the distance. She noticed the navy blue sails with the main sails with a main sail with a white ship at the top. Then Cerpheres saw it and put his violin away. “What is it?” She asked. “A Navy ship.” “And?” He smiled and looked drunk as he liked his lip. He suddenly looked more dangerous than ever. Suddenly Strena did not want to be near him. “I have a sweet little date!” She frowned as she instinctively took a step back. The ship came closer and closer. She felt her heartbeat increase as she could sense the hand of death coming closer and closer ...

Strena The Voyage Part Four

 The Lesson Before Sailing Strena, Bash, Chashathrophogh, Zaryb and Cerpheres walked onto the ship. It seemed smaller than the one that she boarded when she was seven years old, but it was large and it was made up of the same wood as her violin. At the front was silver writing. The Quest Voyager It was called. She walked onto the deck and looked back to Cerpheres walking up to her. He helped her adjust to the violin. She was soon able to stroke it well. “Right, time to start on notes. Now move your fingers like this.” “I’m not going to read them?” He chuckled. “Not yet my dear! Right now, you need to learn the motion first.” “How come?” “Did your dear Uncle Zarry teach you the names of fighting moves before he taught you them?” “No.” “Why is that?” “He told me what I needed to know and do the moves before I learnt their names.” “Then this is no different.” She nodded. He soon taught her how to place her fingers on the neck and stroke the strings. Soon he went on to tell her the nam...

Strena The Voyage Part Three

 A Battle For Tickets  They soon entered the City Kingdom. It was lively with an energized crowd walking to and from. Strena suddenly was reminded of Jotellen, just this place did not have a dark shadow about the place. No, this place was a very light and bright place. Her eyes darted about the place, looking at the bright and lively colours with people having happy smiles like none had a care in the world. Then she saw families and children laughing and playing. Suddenly she looked away as she felt a pain in her heart. It suddenly hit her, she had forgotten the last time she played like that and she never will know nor have a chance to know. No, in fact, she hardly remembered the last time she was even allowed to be a child! On top of that, she was going to be an adult soon. It seemed like as soon as she could be a child she had to put away all childish things. To her, it seemed to be a joke! She then felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked back to see Cerpheres too close to ...

Strena The Voyage Part Two

 Relieved Revelations “So what now?” Zaryb and Strena asked, wiping the last of their sleep out of their eyes. They all waited until they could focus their cloudy minds. They spotted Bash, Chashathrophogh and Cerpheres close their eyes. At first, Strena was afraid that they had fallen back to sleep. Yet when they opened their eyes, they looked relieved. “He’s still there.” Both Chashathrophogh and Bash sighed out of relief. “But it’s been a year! Why would he still be there?” Strena asked. “I don’t know. I guess we will find out when we get there.” He said, splashing his face with ice cold water. “Anyway!” Yawned Chashathrophogh. “We need to go!” So they all walked on, building their strength. Yet Strena, to her utter shock and confusion, noticed that Chashathrophogh looked cute when he yawned. She felt angry at herself for forgetting who he was, when she realized that. She, who did not like the fact that she was starting to notice the man had sternness to his handsome features. So...

Strena The Voyage Part One

 A Time Lost 4th Thursday Foutmoon 516 Years After The 5th Age Of Legends  Sorry for the lack of updates over the past year as I could not put down what I had been through. After all, it was a year ago when we were attacked by Dark Lady Grasharlo. We all were put under one of the many sleeping spells out there. This caused Wolfox some discomfort, which was hilarious. Then we were separated in a cave in the Dreamworld we were trapped in. There I was tempted by the Dark Lady herself! I was shown Uncle Zaryb in chains, along with Bash and Chashathrophogh. She told me that if I killed them all then I would end my nightmare and finally return home. There, I would be safe. I did not believe her, of course, Uncle Zaryb has trained me better than that. Also, I do not think that after learning all that I have about Father, I do not think that I want my throne nor do I think that I will ever be safe. Also Mr Chashathrophogh still scares me even though I do like him. He seems more and mo...

Bounty Hunter Bash Sleep Lock Final Part

 The Time Lost Bash woke up. She noticed that they were surrounded by overgrowth. She could feel that her clothes were all tighter. She felt the clothes around her chest were even tighter. She slowly pushed her body up and snapped several vines as she pushed the growth off her. She felt exhausted. Then she looked to the left and the right. She saw the others woke up. They looked at her and the one thing that she noticed was that Strena’s clothes were far too small for her too. She noticed the small curve at the chest. She noticed that Chashathrophogh and Zaryb were the same. Even though she and Strena showed signs of aging, they did not. The first thing that she did was sense where the location of Dark Lord Gajellidor Darcrogh was and he had not moved at all. “How long have we been asleep?” She asked. “Judging by your clothes and how much you have aged, I would say a year at least.” Then Zaryb looked at Strena with a shocked and pale face. “What?” Both girls asked. “That means that...
