Charlie looks around them. They are in some kind of plains.
Legolas the elf took them here when they wanted to leave the Time Guardian realm.
Janus has refused to help them. Leaving them under the mercy of the demons.
Dante complaints, "Total hopeless. We shouldn't have gone there. Wonder if Luc..."
Claudia nudges him and it silences him.
He rubs his head and apologizes, "Charlie, sorry..."
Charlie forces to smile. She stares up to the sky. It's getting dark. The bloody moon is slightly visible.
She says, "Luc would be okay. He is one tough guy."
Claudia gives her a good hug.
She whispers, "Don't act so tough. Cry if you needed too."
"No. I refused to think he has been hurt. He would be okay. I know he would."
They are gathering firewood for their campfire when Kira suddenly howls.
All of them quickly draw their weapons.
Demons are swarming toward them. They are totally outnumbered when suddenly a group of warriors suddenly show up and help them.
With their help, the demons got slaughtered.
One of the warriors greets, "It seemed we arrive right on time."Claudia says, "Thanks for rescueing us."
"No prob. Saving a pretty woman is every man's job," says a fighter with a wink to her.
Dante steps in front of her.
He says, "We would be okay on our own. Time to go, ladies."
A fighter says, "We have a sanctuary. Won't you come with us? Our King would love to welcome you."
Dante is going to deny when Claudia holds his arm.
She quickly says, "Lead the way, Sir."
Dante is giving her a cold stare but she completely ignores him.
*****
Claudia says, "Thanks for receiving us, Duke Rochester."
A guard behind her corrects immediately, "It's King Rochester now."
