There is Journey

In the deep reaches of an empty dessert in the Far East, a boy lay covered in sand. Unconscious till the strong winds had awakened him. The sand was stringy and not strong, it was weak enough for him to escape, but he hadn’t not the will to move.

“?Wha…? what happened?” the boy spoke.” “I must have been saved by the dust storm?” As he look around with a puzzled look on his face. There was nothing that could be seen, but sand. It was everywhere dunes and dunes of it. This sand was relentless. He was weak from battle, but he managed to pick his corpse up off the ground and began to walk a little distance. His walk was a slow pace, it couldn’t have got him too far, but he strived to move. He didn’t have much hope out here and with no recollection of what happened.
Still wondering “what was it”?
The sun was rising up in the sky. The sun became hotter and hotter as it blazed upon the desert. The boy was wearing merely rags, which couldn’t insulate his tiered body from the heaping ball of inferno. Yes it was hot.

He walked wearily, but as he did flashes came to him and with these flashes came pieces of thoughts. These thoughts were strange, but they were very familiar to him. He was coming to an explanation of how he ended up in this situation. His mind began to warp as these bits and pieces fell complete. They began to make sense, his being in the desert, his bruise body and the rags he had been wearing it was all coming together.

*flash back*
Inside the market place of a small village, a poor village, but it had people. These people were a friendly variety. They seemed to know this boy pretty well, everyone was so wholesome. He was out to get things like supplies and food. Seeing many of his friends he seemed happy until stopped, he heard a commotion behind him, there were dozens of people all over, so it was hard to make-out what was happening. As he looked all over he had this feeling take over him. And everything went quiet. Until he saw it was…

Her... this girl, she did not seem like just any girl. Her skin was very fare and not dark at all, which was strange in the parts of this town, but she looked very distraught. She was running fast. And it was from these big thugs description: and one assassin ninja description: from the guards of the palace, they where chasing her and catching up fast. She ran towards my direction and ran past me, but what was weird we both looked at each other as she past by, our eyes were inches apart and it seemed we both new something. It seemed minutes, but only seconds. While being chased she had a look of fear and anger. Upon her eyes laid a gentleness in her. Something about her showed me that even though she had been chased and that sense of ruthless about her it couldn’t have been true. That’s when I had this other felling seek in to me. I wanted to help her.
The boy couldn’t let this girl be left alone and taken under the wings of the guards. She ran towards him and he held out his hand frowning. His arm was in front of her as a form of shielding to get her out of the eyes of the guards. She was such a lovely rose and he couldn’t allow the guards to mangle and have their way with her, so he pulled her by her hand and ran away with her.

We managed to run into a small ally where the guards completely over looked them. The boy was amazed and proud for saving the fare maiden. I smiled his eyes gently looking her over. Her soft eyes were placed upon his body as well. She was extremely exhausted and out of breath. Looking back The boy said “you alright,” he paused and noticed something she was carrying. “you safe now, k.” . “I’m sorry for this; usually I’d just keep running. I don’t let others help me like this but thank you” she thought to her self “why did I take his hand, I never…” “Hey what’s your name” he asked she looked up “hu , oh its skittles.” he heard the noises of screaming and guards. “Well why don’t we go some wear else be for they put us both in prison mint.” He took her hand, led her through out a maze of back doors, pathways and alleys. Climbing up higher, he’d brought her too his place. It was a abandoned spot upon the rooftops. She looked around, thinking she was safe and the guards wouldn’t find them. She could rest for once with out worry.

She explained in a very soft and beautiful voice that she had to keep on the run, that she came from a royal family but she tossed it aside, …. She didn’t say much, she kept to her self. But I was determined to find out more about her. I invited her to stay in hiding with me, she didn’t like it at first, but I talked her into it. So did the fact running all night from the black dragon solders,

They went to his home and she was surprised and little bit intrigued that he lived on the roof. No other villager lived on a roof, but it was for the best. The roof would be a perfect place to hide.

After about 3 days of hiding out, they started to get to know each other. He found out
The only reason why she steal’s is because she lived a life by her self, alone. And she wasn’t very rich. Imagine a life ware you all alone with no one at your. And this life made her angry a most of her life. She told me her name skittles, yet she was known around the village as the dark mistress. For her slight mystique. And I told her what my name was ?“they call me herenizumu, but my real name is josh, please to make your acquaintance?.” Being a gentleman I took her hand and laid a gentle kiss on it.

A day later I awoke to find her missing, getting worried I throw on whatever I could find got my weapon and headed out to search for her.


Work on ^

I was walking through just about a dozen people it was morning but for this time its not usually busy like this, walking down the main streets of the marketplace. It was definitely more crowded then usual. Skittles wasn’t there when I awoke witch lead me to think “I hope she didn’t get in trouble again. But by the time I spotted her, she was in trouble. Or getting her self into it, it seemed. The Black Death solders were trying to taking her away. They said she got caught stealing a necklace. I picked it up off the ground and said I’d pay for it. However one of the solders knocked me down. I put the necklace in my pocket as I got up and done something I shouldn’t. I drew my black bladed katana sword and shouted “hay!”
One solder said “all right you lookin for a fight you got it.”
I said to myself; screw you breaking the lock on the shackles she was imprisoned in. I yelled “Go through me or would you prefer to pick on little girls all day.” looking back at her “you better run now“. The grads stated to attack like they haven’t seen any action all day. “Go to the docks Skittle were my friend travish owns his air ship you can get away,” trying to hold them back, with the sword in my bleeding hands. I thought “I knew something like this would happen, good thing I talked to Trav about this”. She said nothing but tried, but I told her “go now hurry!” Skittles ran as fast as she could down the path. Looking for the ship but being chased it was hard to keep her thoughts from what josh did. But she kept running.
There in the opening she saw the vessel. It was hard not too find it not to many had them in this part of the world.
It was huge, and to be filled full of a crew with sky pirates to her shock this couldn’t be right is it. But these were the good type, ones that would help you. Help friend with no questions asked. She could tell. She looked up at the top and saw a rope ladder thrown down too her. There was a big heavy set man with the wind blowing in his face he yelled come on. She stepped on and he and the other crew pulled her up as they were taking into the sky. So she ran up. And looked back. It was the right ship but she was badly wounded and in need of medical help. As she was getting fixed up in some part of the ship she couldn’t remember wear Travish showed up to check on her. Well you looked banged up little lady, what’s the damage”. She replied “I’m fine” but still in pain. “You sure about that” he sighed.
Minutes after, she told travish of the story what had happened. Of who she is, how she met that boy that saved her, but kept something hidden, and Travish saw it in her eyes. He also tried to explain to her Josh needed them to help her get away from hear. And how she be lucky to find someone who’d take her life before his own.
Then it was silent for a moment. Travish told her “well I think he’s a good man for tryin to save a pretty little thing like you.” she smiled slightly and replied “I never depended on any one I guess until now. I’ve changed so much as I met him. I wouldn’t even let someone help me hide away with them the day we met. But there was something in his eyes for that split second… hmm.”
“Well then I guess we’d better hurry before they come after looking for you hear”. travish chuckling. Got up, “Lets find the old pirate.” He said with a smile. Skittles asked with interest he was a sky pirate. “Ha!” Travish replied along with the crew laughing .“ he was the best fist mate I had!” and said with a softer tone “and also the best friend I had”, “back when we started as pirates it was us against the world, dam the s**t we got into.”

*end flash back*


Next thing I know I’m stranded here in the middle of who knows ware. Suddenly
an enormous gust of wind and sand comes building up towards me. Out emerged a mighty ship. It was travish and with skittles on-bored. I was so relieved. Out they tossed the giant rope ladder. I climbed up, got over rail and skittles ran up to me and gave me a hug, with tears on her face, I could tell she’s was worried then she yelled called me stupid and stormed out angrily. “? Hay wait??” I said before I could run after her my friends pushed me into the kitchen to have a party. I guess I just don’t get that stuffs. Everybody was hear all my friends. Travish put his hand on my shoulder he said “well you’re not dead so lets party ha-ha? ^-^ .”

About 2 ? hours after I had been saved.

I’m looking around seein’ every one around me. Drinking merrily and having so much fun. yet there was something troubling me. Travish went out on a large balcony wear skittle’s was on. Travish: what’s wrong. Skittles: oh nothing,*wipes tears from her face*
Travish: come on something’s bothering you. Skittles: well? maybe there is. I don’t know why, but for first time I was worried about someone but different. Usually people treat me like I?m a poor criminal,?but not him. He was willing to risk his life for me, and I only known him for about a month. Travish: ?are you in love with him. Skittles: I guess I realy don?t know. I?ve never felt this way before. *I walkout from the party on to the balcony.*
Josh: Travish, could I speak to her alone. Travish: oh ya sure go ahead. Ill just leave you two alone *leaves* Josh: Hey. Are you still uh?still made ?er. Skittles: um no I guess not. I don?t even know why ? ah never mind. *walks up to her* Skittles: isn?t the sun set beautiful. Josh: ya, but that?s not what?s so beautiful. *my head turns to her* * We lean closer?*

Suddenly a loud ruble shook the entire ship. Skittles confused What was that.?
Travish came up and told us we were under attack. I didn?t hesitate. Josh: ?come on, this way.? We started to run off the balcony, when from behind a giant mech warrior came and snached skittles. she yelled ?noooo? help!? Josh: ?Skittles!!!?

I stood up,
