Eric's story: Jeff and Lisa
Rikko's story: Dureo and April

In a place far away from any of our worlds, in a mountain range where the the skies were always clear, stood the Grand Castle of the Emperors.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkSeUJHv-XA
(If anyone can find better castle music, please let me know. This just came from the top of my head.)

The castle was immense, twice as large as Cauis'. In the main hall, seven tall beings were looking into a much larger vision mirror. The seven beings were the Seven Monarchs.
Here's a pic and their names going from left to right:
Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch
Raiza the Storm Monarch
Zaborg the Thunder Monarch
Caius the Shadow Monarch
Kuraz the Light Monarch
Mobius the Frost Monarch
Granmarg the Rock Monarch
http://images1.wikia.nocookie.ne.../images/9/90/Monarchs.jpg

Kuraz: Impressive, these adventurers have quite the potential.

Granmarg: Yes, very good! I congratulate them on their efforts!

Zaborg: Looks like they will put in even more effort, look.

Zaborg pointed out Kracila's summons going after Chrome's group.

Mobius: Well we're about to simply stand here and let them attack without realizing the sheer force of The Monarchs!

Raiza: I say we gather our arms and assist them.

Thestalos: I second that motion!

Caius: Then we shall depart immediately.

*meanwhile with Chrome's group*

You know, I've never been on a train before, but at least I know what one is. Some of the group member's had no idea what a train was. Jinzo has been explaining to them what it was and what it's for, and he continued to stress that this one is the only locomotive that could ever run without tracks.

Jinzo: Now, is there anything else that anyone is still confused about?

Kurai: No Jinzo, we get it now.

RX then came into our car with Krystal and Covington.

Krystal: So, is eveyone enjoying their first train ride?

Jason: Yes ma'am. What about you...guys.

All of the mamonos where staring out the windows in amazment, watching the scenery go by.

Jason: Uh, well they seem to like it.

Krystal: Glad to hear it. ^_^

Faceless: So Krystal, why don't you take a seat and tell us about yourself?

Krystal: Oh, well...

RX: I'll be fine. Go ahead.

RX left with Covington following behind. They must want to check all of the cars, or something. Krystal decided to take a seat and chat with us. The mamonos redirected their attention to Krystal.

Faceless: So how do you know RX? Are you his girlfriend?

Krystal: No.

Faceless: Wife?

Krystal: No.

Faceless: Daughter? Sister? Cousin?

Skol: Faceless! Enough guessing! Let her talk!

Krystal: Well, he's kinda like a father to me, but we're not related.

Chrome: So how did you two meet?

Krystal: We didn't meet each other, he built me. I'm an android.

Takara: An android? Like what Chrome is?

Krystal: No, Chrome is a cyborg. Those are half human, or at least were humans in the past. Androids are humanoid robots.

Chrome: You're a robot?

Krystal: Well, sort of. I'm made of a kind of advanced morphing metal. Yours can change shape and repair itself, right? Well, mine can mimic the color and feel of human skin, and it can shape into a liquid form but still be harder than any steel.

Hmm, so she's like me and RX, but has a more advanced metal.

Jason: So, when you say he built you, you mean he created you in like a lab?

Krystal: Well...he did but...he sees me as more than just a lab experiment. I'm not treated like a trophy of his achievements. I'm treated like...someone very close to him.

I can see she has a stong emotional bond with RX. I never knew this was possible with someone like him. RX and Covinton then came back into the car.

RX: Well Krystal, I'm very impressed. You really did a good job fixing my train.

Krystal: Thanks RX.

RX: Something wrong?

Krystal: Uh no, I was just telling them about you and me.

RX: Oh, I see.

Melinda: YES IT IS WHEEEE!

Everyone in the passenger cabin turned to see who made that noise.

Dureo: ...hi? ...I-I'm Dureo.

Covington: Vat is dis olt person toing on dis train?

Dureo: HOW MANY TIMES MUST I SAY IT, I'M NOT OL...uh.

Skol was right in front of front of Dureo casting his terrifying shadow.

Skol: You'd better have a good reason for getting on this train uninvited.

RREEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Everyone became paralyzed with fear at the sound of this terrible screech.

Lich Lord: Do not harm this man!

When we looked up, Lich Lord, King of the Underworld was standing in front of Dureo and his Mimic mamono.

RX: (Lich Lord! What is he doing here!? Okay, stay calm, he must be here because Dureo isn't an enemy. I really hope he's not here to punish me.) Of course, where is our hospitality? I'm so sorry for that Dureo. Please, why don't we move to the passenger car behind this one?

Dureo: (What's going on here!? First I get caught hiding and now this bony, winged zombie is standing in front of me! Okay calm down, gotta keep your cool.) Uh, sure. (THAAT'S NOT KEEPING YOUR COOL DAMMIT!)

RX: Wonderful, right this way. Lich Lord, why don't you join us?

RX led Dureo, Melinda, and Lich Lord to the next car.

Jinzo: His mind sounded quite uneasy.

Recycler: ZZZZ...huh? What I miss?

Choro: *yawn* I was napping too.

*super epic facepalm gif needed*
http://www.downfallguild.org/node/6222

*in the second passenger cabin*

RX: Okay, let me get something very clear here first Lich Lord, you aren't here to punish me?

Lich Lord: RX, Voltanis has decided to forgive you since you are honestly helping these adventurers.

RX: Oh thank goodness. Phew. Okay, now what about you Dureo? Why are you on my locomotive?

Dureo: Well uh, I just thought this could be a nice ride. Besides, we're tired and we need a place to rest.

Melinda: Please shiny man, can we ride on this?

RX: Hmm, you know Rikko, don't you?

Dureo: Oh the zombie boy? Yeah I know him.

RX: Well, this train is supposed to take us to where he is. Why don't you stay with us until we get there. Maybe we could get to know each other better.

A voice sounded from the intercom.

engineer: Attention all passengers, we are about to cross onto the ocean surface, please remain calm, this train does have the ability to ride on water. This has been your engineer, ENJOY THE RIDE Y'ALL! YEEEE HAW!

RX: (Maybe I should reprogram the engineer's voice.)

Lich Lord: This can go across water?

RX: It can go anywhere.

Lich Lord: Impressive.

*meanwhile, with Kracila's minions*

Grace: Look, they're heading straight for the ocean! We'll catch them now! Heehee!

They were about to catch the train when it ran off the shore and onto the water. Grace and the Icefiend stopped before they fell in. The Death Knight, determined to catch the train, kept running and fell into the water. It couldn't swim, so it walked back to Grace. The swarm of Beelzebubs stopped, since they couldn't take on the group without the stronger summons.

Grace: W-What is this! How is that even possible!?

Orichalcos: I found you.

Grace: Huh!?

The summons turned around to see Orichalcos Shunoros floating above them.

Orichalcos: Now, you shall be sent to your lord, AS FAILURES!

A bright light enveloped Grace and the other minions. When the light went away, they found themselves in front of the Demon Lord himself.

Grace: *gasp* My lord! I'm sorry, I have failed you.

Demon Lord: Do not worry dearest Grace, all is forgiven. That machine was much too powerful. I'm afraid we'll have to set aside the cyborg's team for another time.

Grace: Thank you, my lord.

*back in the train*

After a while, RX came back with Dureo, his Mimic mamono, and Lich Lord. We spent a while talking with them. Those three actually weren't so bad after all.

.....

Choro: Don't you remember me?

Dureo: Nope, never seen ya before.

Choro: A long time ago, when I was a young kid, I met you and wanted to purchase something. I called you old and you refused to sell me anything. You disappeared after shouting at me.

Dureo: Oh so you were that annoying little kid! I guess it has been a while.

Choro: So how is your business?

Dureo: Well, those Temple Knights made me a wanted man, so now I gotta make secret shop stops now.

Shiruku: I'm glad those two are getting along. It's been a while since they last seen each other.

Kurai: They met for like ten seconds, and the merchant even yelled at him.

Shiruku: At least they remember each other.

Kurai: Right. -_-

.....

Chrome: So, you've been keeping an eye on Rikko?

Lich Lord: That's right.

Chrome: And you've been teaching him new skills to help him on his journey?

Lich Lord: Yes. He seems to be very good with handling undead powers.

Chrome: So, can you tell me about Rikko's team? Who's in it? What are they like?

Lich Lord: Well...

Lich Lord told me all about Rikko's teammates and all of the adventures that they had. He told me about the places they've been to, they people they've met, and...the torture they suffered. I wish he didn't tell me about the suffering, but it only meant that it was even more important to get to Rikko's group.

A few hours passed, and outside the window, we saw...Labyrinth Tower! We were almost there! Oh I'm so exited! Were almost to Rikko!

Meanwhile, the Seven Monarchs had recently arrived in front of the school gates. They were confused as to where Chrome's group was. Caius brought up a Vision Mirror showing Orichalcos banish Kracila's minions.

Zaborg: Looks like we were a little late.

Caius: Great...alright then. I propose we travel to Rikko's team instead, and wait for everyone to meet there. Then we may reveal ourselves.

all other Monarchs: Agreed.

End of Chapter 17
Meeting Rikko in my next chapter.

In the last car of the train, RX was seated alone while everyone else was chatting in the first car. Krystal eventually walked into the cabin.

Krystal: We'll be there eventually.

RX: I know.

Krystal: What's wrong?

RX: ...You know about the harpy that was killed, right?

Krystal: You know you'll soon have to face her sister.

RX: I know that...but...how will she ever forgive me. A machine I sent took the life of someone dear to her. *sigh* It's all my fault.

Krystal: RX, please don't beat yourself up like this. It breaks my heart seeing you so down.

RX: But what if she won't forgive me? It's going to be a disaster.

Krystal: Don't worry. I'm sure we'll pull through. We've pulled through a lot together, and I'll stay by your side here too. That's why I came here anyway.

RX: ...Alright, thank you Krystal.

Krystal: Not a problem. Now, why don't you come back with us, everyone's wondering where you are.

RX: Alright.

RX got up and walked back to the others with the one person he can always count on.

Chapter: B, black market wipe out.

Eric and Ellisa both walk in a dork yard.

Mark: Hey, peacekeeper, long time no see, you are looking for chaos here?
Eric: Mmm-hmm.
Mark: You hear about cpt. Bladetooth?
Eric: ...*shake head*
Mark: Right, he sell mermaid blood to the black market, and the ship will stop here to night.
Eric: ......
Mark: I hear there is a rumor about a succubus kill him month ago, but i don't believe it because his men still transporting these mermaid blood to black market.
Eric: Yeah, what can i do...?
Mark: Simple, just burn his ship, there will be handsome reward.
Eric: I will do it...
Ellisa: Dad?
Eric: Take care my daughter for me...
Mark: Simple task.

At night, i sneak in the dork yard, i can see some men guarding the ship, drinking some alcohol drink and having some gossip.

(Hmm, 8 men here at the moment...)

I sneak behind one when another aren't looking, i grab him from behind and dragging him into the shadow...

"Crack"

Sailor: Where is John?
Sailor 2: He was there moment ago.
Sailor: John, you there? *walk into shadow*

I pull out the knife and stab him in the stomach, then neck break him.

Sailor: Ah! Ah! Help! "crack"
Sailor 2: Hey, what happen!?

He light up his touch and coming over here, i have my rifle ready.

Sailor 2: Who ar- "boom"

The gunshot alert the another sailor, i quickly run into another shadow.

Sailor: Kill any intruder that you see!

I aim up the rifle, shoot another guy in the head.

Sailor: I see him!

(Shit!)

They have me surrounded.

Sailor: Only one guy? I though 3-5 guy like last time?

I look around...

(2,3... 7 guy, one shot one kill shouldn't be too hard... the last guy should be spared and spread the new)

I take a deep breath...
*Dead eye activated*

I pull out the revolver, shoot else one of them in the neck.

Sailor: What the hell!!?

I charge toward him and kick him down, i arm lock him.

Eric: *whispering* Tell your boss, the name is peacekeeper...

Then i elbow smack on his head and knock him out.

I walk into the ship, i discover some gun powder and some oil barrel, i take some gun powder, and pot the oil around, i fire the gun on the oil and light it up, i run out of the ship, after it burn some time, it explode and sink into the sea.

(Hmm, it ain't too hard...)

Mark: Nice, here is your 600 coin.
Ellisa: Dad, you okay?
Eric: Hmm.*nod*
Mark: See you next time.

I continues walking down to the street, i see the Dureo marking.

Eric: Dureo? I need some piece of lead...

Succubus that Lilith send sitting on the tree far way.

Succubus: 8 men today...

......

???: You seen to grow some hatred in you.
Eric: Who... are you?
???: I had been watching you since you arrive this land, your kindness, your mercy seen to be decrease from the more you kill.
Eric: ......

Chapter B end.

???=Caius
Voice= a girl keep appearing in Eric dream

Extra information
Eric will not talk if there is more than 2 person with him, when a stranger ask for his name, he will reply him as "Peacekeeper", Eric have some hatred toward the one who hunt mamono, such as General Dango and Mamono hunter group.

Eric- Show no mercy

I hope it does not effect your story too much.

Dont worry RX, Well hols her back if she gets angry at you while you explain, though she still wont like you...but at least she'll understand more. Just dont mention Avir to Karien too much because she gets sad and cries when someone talks about her.
......................
"Thanks lord, I'm glad you forgive us...but how can we fight when someone banishes us back?" Grace asked while rubbing her lords PINGAS. (i just had to do that :P)

"haha, Fear not, Im sure the Prof. has built some things up, we give him the supplies, he gets a rightful place in my army" The Demon lord said with a smile. "Shall we go see what hes made?" all the summons nodded, they followed him out towards the new science department deep in the their realm.

They could hear Muxley building things and commanding homunculi and other, new servants around. They walked into the very large lab, Muxley was making lots of machines in a very quick time, he was using an assembly line style of building.

"Alright love put that over there, ok now...Oh my lord" He bowed. He noticed Grace. "hehe wouldnt mind doin a lil experiment with this one myself now!" Grace smiled and blushed and both Muxley and the Demon lord chuckled. "Ah hehe...so what brings you and your lovely girl here to my lab sir." He was building something in his hands while talking.

"Have you anything that can counter unwanted teleports and banishments, AND improve power a hundredfold?" The Lord asked. Muxley smiled. He led them to a table that had many syringes full with a glowing purple liquid.

"Inject these into yourself, I made em myself with help from your other gals, their magic is in this, should buff all ya up and give you immunity to unwanted teleports and the like" He handed one to the death knight, he looked at the Icefiend for a second. "...hmm i quess youll just hafta inject into yer bones." he ordered a mass of tiny syringes for the beelzebubs. Everyone injected it into themselves, within minutes of it getting in their systems, The knights muscles grew and tightened a bit. Graces stomach tightened and her tone became more prominent, her horns and wings thickened a little and her tails point grew sharper. The icefiends bones thickened up and the beelzebubs bodies grew a little and they looked stronger just by looking.

"This serum is designed to stay in you until either I TAKE it out or you die, bring some to those pirates if you will ok?" He handed some to a homunculus who then proceeded towards the gate to hell.

"Before we continue I'll tell you something. Muxley, remember an old homunculus you left abck at that small town?" The demon lord asked. Muxley stood thinking for one second.

"hmm...OH #426? I remember her, boy what a fail that one was, she was even clumsier than the rest and messed up a lot of things, ditched that inferior model and brought the others along" *points at all the other working homunculi* "what about her?"

"She is with a group of adventurers now, she grown much stronger than many of your other girls, if we kill this group, would you like her back?" The demon lord pulled out a glass ball showing still images of her with Rikko's group, and how much damage she was capable of dealing out. Muxley smiled.

"Wouldnt you rather have someone on the inside sir?" Muxley said, he pulled out some sort of remote, the #426 on it. "I have one for each of my loves, lets me see through their eyes, see what they see." he pushed the button, the screen on the tope turned on and they saw the group fighting with Dango. "Ill give you a personal screen to watch my lord"

"Thanks, this will help me plan out, and soon she (Exca) will be in my harem...I wonder" The demon lord waved his hand over the controller, the magic seeped through A.M.E. without anyone knowing. He was ensuring there would BE NO cure for Exca'scondition. "Hmmhmm not even all the gods can cure this ancient forbidden curse, and it took me A LOT of work to find it, now, I must return to my watch, I await your succesful return Grace, Go, ambush the train when the time is right, you can get in now, I'm sure of it, if not..."He opened a portal to the desert near the knights castle. "...you will not be in my harem for the rest of eternity" This gave Grace reason to win. The summons and Grace stepped through

"...well then, I'll be sending these out!" Muxley pointed to several, small spiderlike machines, each forged with metals from the depths of hell itself giving them an orange tint. He pushed a button on another controller and they activated, they went through the portal before it closed. Muxley and the Demon lord laughed together and then continued to do what each was doing beforehand .
*Just outside Hells Gateway*
"Ah thanks undead one, now we feel even stronger!!! LET THOSE WEAKLINGS COME, WE SHALL KILL THEM ON SIGHT!!". Cpt. Bladetooth was beginning to look like his younger, much stronger self...with major benefits. Several homunculi were commanded to be there for backup and to help keep the pirates satisfied. The machine was still on itspatrol route through the Decaying Forest and Swamp around the Gateway, Its dark slimes in tow, now in even greater numbers due to a fool band of female adventurers who made it through the Zipangu Mountain Caves (Well be going there once we obtain our final Ally, (Hint: If you sleep, it will come).

The last to receive the serum was Kracila who was practicing her magic, it was improving, she was almost the same level as Dureo, soon to be higher if she kept it up. The serum to her was just...extra.

Evil was getting stronger by the minute. And Kracilas powers are growing by the second.
...........................
TA - 35 Goodbye's to new Friends

Lashra had recovered and stood by the generals side, She had pulled out a new crossbow from the weapons o the back, it had a large, Gatling gun like stock. It fired in rapid fire and reloaded with large circles of arrows. She was firing it at the group. "Die, The powers of Good shall prevail criminals!" She yelled. "One day you will all be sent back to heaven or hell!" She was reloading. Karien dived at her but was knocked away by Dango's fist.

"Sorry bout this Ex-general" Rell said. His group of inexperienced fighters charged at him. Within half a minute, three were knocked away and the other was dead from impact. Exca was angered by this and fired fire at the general, then she felt something strange, like a spell from an unknown entity had changed her structure. It faded out and she continued fighting. Mir'la was firing Gurasu Shurikens (Grass darts) at dango but his armor reflected them. Longshots Bullets made him turn his back though.

"Now!" said Rockefeller, with Razor on his hand. Razor leapt off and slashed down the back of Dango's plate armor, the leather straps split apart and his armor fell off, revealing his body. It was riddled with scars and heavily muscled and toned. Exca's succubus side kicked in and she was mesmerized. But the feeling faded soon and she struck at his bare skin. He still blocked and threw her to the side. Longshot fired several shots into his flesh but they didnt even faze him. Everyone was soon forced to dodge another flurry of bolts.

"Im going in" said Rikko, his shield raised, he charged through the arrows and jumped up into the air towards Dango. Dango turned and put his arm up. Rikko landed with his mouth around his arm, accidentally biting down and tearing out a piece of flesh. Everyone in his group who knew looked in shock and backed up as far as they could. Vespisect and April backed up even though they didnt know what was going. The rest saw this and did the same.

*Muxley's Lab*
"getting this lord? looks like the zombie boy likes bloody human meat." Said Muxley while watching through A.M.E's eyes

"Prepare a feast of human flesh for when they arrive, if properly tamed...he could join us, be the one to help keep Exca with me, IF either joins me, the other surely will."

"Yes lord"

*Castle Throne Room*

"S-so good...MORE MORE MOAR MORE!!" Yelled Rikko, Dango shook him off and he landed on Lashra. Dango then proceeded to focus on the others. Rikko flipped over to find himself on top of her, he licked his lips and bit into her shoulders.

"Aghh AGGHH" Lashra was screaming and was in a position where she couldn't get him off. Rikko kept tearing into her flesh and eating her alive. The others were too focused on Dango to stop. Dango noticed however. He shifted towards Rikko, just as he bit into her jugular vein. Dango swung at him but Rikko moved off the now bleeding to death Lashra. Vespisect stabbed into Dango's back. Her spear injected venom to stun him. He swung around and hit her on the previous wound he gave her. Rikko jumped on Dango's back and bit into his neck.

"mm delicious!" said Rikko as he swallowed. He tried again but Dango pushed him off then kicked him in the back of the head, knocking him out. The MF5 and the remaining ex-knights stood up.

"Go!!" yelled Muddy. "We will keep him away from you! GET OUT OF HERE NOW!" Everyone looked at them, they were dead serious.

"B-but what if you die?" Asked Mir'la.

"Oh we wont die!" Said Mace "Not all of us at least."

The group nodded and left out the window the MF5 had broken through. Rockefeller lifted Rikko's unconscious body up as they ran. He was squirming and muttering something about a horse, girl, scythe, and shyness. They didnt have time to listen. As they left Exca looked back to see Rell dieing from a stab wound. She casted one last spell to hurt Dango then ren. Her fireball hit and burned his back a little but Dango was too focused on the rest.

They ran towards the desert. Rikko still muttering. Vekii went with them as well.
....................................
TA - 36 Morning Desert, Rikko's "Nightmare"

*Throne Room*

"Retreat" yelled Muddy. The MF5 quickly fled the castle, wounded badly by Dango, who had killed the other knights. They fled closely after Rikkos group.

"...Lashra...They will be executed in your name." He said kneeling by her. She had bled to death. Dango closed her lifeless eyes. Several knights came into the room. "Go get the horses, CHASE THEM DOWN...ugh" Dango couldnt move, he had taken too much damage from the last fight. He passed out and fell asleep as the knights left to give chase.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0GbJAITK0s&feature=related
The group had reached the start of the desert, the sun was rising and they were sleepy and tired from all the fighting, training, sneaking, and running. They looked back to see a small dust cloud coming from the castle. They knew it was the knights.They continued running. Hands and stingers of Girtabilu kept trying to sting them from beneath the sand but they moved too fast and didnt stop.

While dodging the group didnt see a horse ahead.. They all ran right into it, It was sleeping standing up in the shade of the nearby tree, It was still morning though so the desert was still quite cool. (sun hasnt Risen entirely yet)
They all flew back and landed in the sand. They looked up. It wasnt a just a horse, it had a scythe in one hand, dark blue hair and dark purple fur. It was a nightmare. They noticed she was mumbling too in similar fashion to Rikko.

"Wake up horsie lady, Wake up in the name of...stuff..JUST WAKE UP HAHA" April yelled as she smashed a apple pie in the Nightmares face. Both the nightmare and Rikko woke up at the same time, both startled. They looked at eachother.

"Hey its you" they both said at the same time. The nightmare got scared, turned to run, and smacked right into the tree. A.M.E. found this familiar somehow. (remember back when fighting the Matango Mayor :P). She fell over out cold. The knights grew closer, though fewer in number as some had been taken by the Girtabilu's.

"Well we cant leave her to let those knights kill her" Said Exca. A.M.E. Understood and lifted her up over her shoulder with her unbroken arm (yes its STILL broken, they dont heal fast you know). and Longshot picked up her scythe, It was rather large. It was gleaming silver and Gold encrusted with rubies, the handle had a large amethyst. They continued running. April heard something like a whistle in the distance.

"I hear...Turkeys? no I hear...a whistle thing" She turned around. "Stop look, big dust cloud coming to eat us!" Everyone turned, there was a larger sand cloud approaching even faster from farther away, the sun had rose just enough for them to see it was some sort of vehicle. It barreled the knights over and was headed straight for the Group. They all moved out of the way...Except for april who stood there watching. She wouldnt move.

"I can beat this new monster thing!" She stood slightly shaking with her jesters staff pointed out. She took her hat off and it started to make a helicopter sound as it spun around. The strange vehicle made a loud screeching sound. It was slowing down. April readied herself as it came closer, It stopped just before it ran her over. She hit it with her staff and it did nothing, it was then she decided something. "AH HELL ITS A GOD RUN!!" she hid behind Rikko. They heard the doors begin to click open. Despite bieng tired and sleepy, they readied themselves for what may happen now. (Take it away Mastermind).
........................................
Woo desert heat is no fun, especially when you have to carry large Nightmare around, good thing A.M.E. is strong. This Nightmare is the final ally to my group. Her name will be...Riewa because...its the first thing that came to my mind.

However I do have a need to split with your group for a short time later, just remember that much. :P (There is NO cure for Exca...yet, Rikko and friends will find it after beating her.)
.............................
*Train*
"I was there earlier Choro" Said Dureo pointing at a large rock with his sign on it.

"Oh, so thats a hidden shop place of yours huh." Replied Choro while watching. They passed by camp in the distance, it seemed to be in an uproar, the sun was coming up and many of the fires were being put out. They soon saw A castle, on its front and along the walls was the temple knights symbol. Choro heard Dureo mutter spell then saw the symbols on the castle rust and break apart, then he heard Dureo laughing. Choro couldnt help but snicker as well.

They soon were in a desert. Before they knew it they passed by several knights on horses in pursuit of something. The train began slowing down. Then it stopped. They heard a girls voice shouting outside and a sound of metal hitting the train.
.................
:P

Now we need to find the right moment to pick up Eric "Peacekeeper"

No not really Considering *Spoiler alert* Dango dies later in the story anyway, but only after he learns the truth about his "Lord" hes been so loyal too.

Lol a girl appeared in Rikko's dream too, A nightmare. Our final Ally.

Okay, let me tell you how Eric act when Rikko lust for fresh of human.

Rikko grab Eric and begin to ripe his fresh out and feed on him.

Eric: Hmm!

Soon Eric quickly grab Rikko's head and give him a nonfatal neck break.

Rikko's partner: Yo-you kill him!
Eric: No, i didn't...

XD

Eric: You set me up...?
Oh, sorry...

zzz... *wakes* ..ow...my neck hurts *gets milk*

Chapter 3: Incoming attack and partner.

(Cindy seen like a unfitting name to a blonde hair girl, so i will just give her Astraea.)

Astraea: Peacekeeper will be get past this area, set the trap quickly.
Knight: We found a underground cave!
Astraea: We can use it against him, dig deeper so he can't get back up.
Knight: Yes, ma'am.

......

Ellisa: Dad, what wrong?
Eric: Nothing...

I feel something in my head is trying to taking over. A succubus is sitting on a tree nearby and talk to herself.

Succubus: I failed again, but i have another chance...

Knight: I see him, He is coming!
Astraea: Don't male any move until i tall you to.

She has her bow ready, her arrow is soaked in some kind of poison.

Astraea: I see you...

Astraea hide beside the tree and ready to shoot a arrow on me.

Eric: ......
Ellisa: Dad?
Eric: You wait here, i will go ahead...
Ellisa: Okay...

I continues walking down the path alone, to scout ahead. I walk into the spot where the trap was set.

*release*"Cu"

An arrow she shot hit me on the right shoulder, rendering my upper half body paralyzed. I kneel down.

Eric: Hmm!
Astraea: I though you could dodge that arrow, that is disappointing...
Eric: ......
Astraea: Now i am not here to kill you, my father want to meet you in person.

I grab the arrow that is in my shoulder, trying to pulling it out.

Astraea: What... what are you trying to do?
Eric: Hmmm! "cha"

I pull out the arrow and stand up, she is a bit of frighten.

Astraea: Activate the trap now!

The spot where i am standing on collapse , i could not get out of there. But look like she is falling for her own trap.
(Where is that epic facepalm gif when you need one?)

Astraea: Ah!

I do a quick landing roll, unfortunely, she butt land on my back, almost crushed my spine with her butt.

Eric: Argh!
Astraea: Ah! Aw, aw, aw, that hurt... *look up*
Knights: *attack by something else* Help! *run*
Astraea: What happen?

There is not response, she begin to frighten.

Astraea: Wwhe-where are you, peacekeeper?
Eric: ......
Astraea: Hello?
Eric: Under you...
Astraea: Ah! I-i am sorry!

She stand up and move away from me.

Eric: ......
Astraea: Where are you going?
Eric: ......
Astraea: Wait!

I begin to looking for a way to surface, i need to get back to my daughter. The cave just like a maze, i am getting tired.

Astraea: Please don't leave me alone here.
Eric: *coughing*
Astraea: You okay?
Eric: ......
Astraea: At least give me some response.
Eric: What are you? Just now you try to get me, now you try to get nice to me?

My response totally give her a surprise.

Astraea: No, it just... i used to think you are my hero when i was kid. But these year, they said you begin to kill these innocent.
Eric: They aren't innocent...

Day is becoming darker...

Astraea: Oh no... please get close to me...
Eric: Why... are you scared of darkness?
Astraea: ... I-i only tell you, please keep it a secret, promise?
Eric: Hmm... *nod*
Astraea: When i was still kid, a incubus... sneak in my room when i was sleeping... he blow out all the candle in my room and... raped me, i was lucky, when he is about to turn me into one of them, my father rush in and fight it off, so from that day, i am scared of dark, pretty funny isn't it?

Eric: Do you have a dagger?
Astraea: I have one.
Eric: Give it to me!
Astraea: What are you doing?
Eric: Climb up! Do you want to get out of here!?
Astraea: Yeah.
Eric: Then... hold on to my back!

I use the knife and dagger as climbing pick.

Eric: Hmm! Mmm!

The more i use my strength, more blood split out from the wound.

After some time, i finally come out from underground. My right hand lose it feeling due to blood lose, i am feeling dizzy...

Astraea: Finally...
Eric: Ellisa? Where are you!?
Succubus: Here she is... what a cute little girl you have there...

Ellisa: Daddy...
Astraea: Where is my men gone?
Succubus: You mean these knight? I turn them into my servants.
Astraea: Huh?
Succubus: Go get them! My servant!

These knight begin to pull out their sword.

Astraea: What wrong with you guy? Snap out of it!

I take out the revolver with left hand...

Astraea: Don't kill them!
Eric: Once they adsorb the succubus power, there is no way back!
Astraea: ...Huh...? No...

I begin to kill them all, just for their own sake...

Succubus: Hmm, look like my servants is no match of you peacekeeper.

Succubus: Don't fight back or i turn her into one of us.
Eric: ...... *walk closer*
Astraea: I got it... right... *pulling the bow*
Succubus: I warned you! Huh? A, a tail!?

Astraea giving my a eye signal to ask is it okay to shoot her arrow.

Succubus: Your daughter is a mamono!?
Eric: Now!

Astraea shoot her arrow on the succubus, cause her to release Ellisa at mid air, Ellisa is falling, i run as fast as possible to catch her.

Ellisa: Dad!!

I dive to the spot where Ellisa will land and slide to she, i catch her.

Eric: Gotcha!
Ellisa: Dad! I was so scared!
Eric: I knew... *faint*
Ellisa: Dad? Dad!!
Astraea: He lost too much blood!

Succubus: Si! I failed again, i bet Lilith will punish me for this! *fly away*

......
Voice: You did well.
Eric: I... died?
Voice: No, you are not the kind who die easily.
Eric: ......
Voice: I knew you are tired of these, but please don't give up...
Eric: I won't...

......

I wake up, Ellisa and Astraea is taking care of me, i look around, we are in a cave nearby...

Ellisa: Dad!
Astraea: You make me worried...
Eric: What... are you doing?
Astraea: I am making medicine for you, if i knew some magic, healing you won't be a problem.

Astraea: I think about it again and understand you are not so bad like they are talking about, so i am following you, i will learn how is that face under that rag look like and what is your name, then i would like to take you to my father.
