The Beast and the Sword Book 3: A Koi's Journey

Page 51: An Open Mind

-Magic Knight Headquarters; Courtyard-

The moon started to rise over the Clover Kingdom. Everyone had been either closing up their shops or getting read to open up. Though many were feeling either anxious or agitated. Especially with a certain Captain.

"What do you mean, you're not telling us where you are?!" Yukiko exclaimed as there had been a holographic display of Yami on a device.

"Ana Latta--Are you serious?!" Cadfan exclaimed. "This is serious! You realize how long you've been missing?!"

Yami told them as they saw him take a puff, "I know, trust me. I know what I'm doing."

"Foreigner, you are testing us." Nozel said with a look

"How can we trust you if you can't tell us where you and the princess are?" Charlotte asked

"Because I'm the most trustworthy guy?" Yami said as he shrugged.

"THIS ISN'T A GAME, MEATHEAD!!" Jack shouted as he didn't smile.

"Can you at least bring Prism back here?!" Yukiko asked, "You know, like you were supposed to!?"

"No." He replied immediately, shocking them.

Yukiko had a twitch before shouting in another language and eleven before forming a cloud with lightning nearly striking the floor but hitting Solid as he screeched.

"Hey, whoa!" Yami said recognizing the language to be his own, "Easy with that sailor mouth! You want your kids to learn that?"

"NO!? WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO!?" Cadfan shouted.

"Look, if you saw what I saw while in that cave, the last thing Lizard Girl needs is you two and any more stress." Yami said, "So I made the decision to take her on a much needed vacation."

"Yami, if you don't bring the Princess back here---" Nozel said.

"Glad you understand, so I'm gonna go before you wake one of them up with your yelling--" Yami said, "--Kay see ya, bye!"

"WAIT WHAT DO YOU MEAN WAKE THEM---" Cadfan started to yell before Yami hung up. He gasped, "---HE HUNG UP ON ME!"

As he hung up, Yukiko had a twitch before shouting in more of the language as she formed more could before more lighting appeared as Solid shrieked and ran for his life but not before they struck him.

"Cadfan, your wife please!" Rill said as he protected himself with his sketchbook just as rain began to form, "She's starting to make it rain!"

Nebra only had a twitch as the rain was pouring on her. "Please for our sakes."

Solid was heard screaming as more lighting struck down on him.

"How can that damn foreigner be this reckless?!" Nozel said, "He was supposed to bring her back here, is that SO damn hard!?"

Jack said as he had gotten his magic out, "KEKE--THAT'S IT! I'M TAKING THE LIZARD GIRL FROM THAT BASTARD!"

Yukiko soon shouted, "I'M GOING AFTER HIM!" More Cloud began to form as Solid gave a screech trying to defend himself using water snakes. Though it didn't help as it made the lighting worse.

"....Barbados." Nozel asked.

Cadfan sighed as he said "Honey, If you stop using your magic indirectly hitting Solid. You'll get your treats!"
