"HEY!! LET GO OF ME!!" Miyoko exclaimed as the knight continued to carry her. "HEEEY!!"

The woman was moving at amazing speeds. Whatever magic power she was using for her movement was impressive, which was saying something as Miyoko's Dragon Born ability was quite involved in speed. 

Miyoko would've tried fighting to get free, but something told her this woman wasn't trying to harm her.. rather.. she seemed to be frantically trying to save her from something.

"We need to get you out of here.. before he finds you.." the woman panted. "I'm sorry..please bare with me a little longer.."

"YOU KNOCKED ME OUT AND KIDNAPPED ME!" Miyoko roared. "COME ON!! Those were my FRIENDS you just kidnapped me from!!"

The woman skidded to a halt and stared at Miyoko. "Wh.. what? Your.."

"FRIENDS! Yeah.. not followers of Frieza or whatever... my friends.. whom my PARENTS trust.. who might I add are part of Fairy Tail!! Does that mean anything to you!?"

"yes.. it does.." said the woman, moaning in frustration as she set Miyoko back down on her feet. "My... my deepest apologies.. I have been running for months... and.. "

The woman suddenly groaned, clutching her arm. "I need to get back to my world.. I've been away for too long.. she's relying on me and Mordred to return.."

"You're hurt..." said Miyoko quietly. "And.. wait.. you know Mordred?"

The woman looked up, and once more, Miyoko glimpsed how strikingly similar this woman and Mordred were in appearance.  "Yes.. have you met?"

"She just popped up one day.. we've been looking after her.. me.. my sister.. Mom.. " said Miyoko.

"Right.. your mother.. is the version of Misaka that resides in that Magically Dense world.. " said the woman.  "You are her daughter Miyoko.. correct..? One of the Ordained."

"Yes.. I'm a Numensapien's kid.." said Miyoko. "And you..who are you?"

The woman bowed her head. "I am known as Saber.. but my true name.. is Arturia Pendragon.. others called me Arthur in a past life.."

"Pendragon... Arthur... NO WAY.." said Miyoko, her eyes widening. "No wonder Mordred knows you.. y.. you're King Arthur! The ACTUAL King Arthur! And you're a woman!?"

"Yes.. many express surprise when they learn of my true gender I suppose." said Saber.  "I am also.. myself.. a fellow Ordained.. daughter of Venvetta, who took the form of a human woman when my father Uther happened upon her.. "

Miyoko stared with amazement. "You're... an Ordained like me..?"

"As far as I know.. " said Saber. "I was hunted by Frieza.. captured by his wretched allies. But I escaped with my body barely intact. When I heard you were of particular interest to his plans, I vowed to stow you away to safety.. it appears in  my haste to protect you I might have acted a bit.. erm... hasty.."

"Hasty is an understatement." said Miyoko, frowning. 

At that moment.. the trees in the woods around the city shook.. as a sudden strange breeze whipped through them.

In that instant, Saber's eyes went alert and a sword made of transparent whipping wind exploded into her armored gauntlets. "Who is there..?"

"Ohohohohoho.. now now.. don't be so hasty to slash and hack at me.. not when I have such a glorious proposition for you.. Ordained children.."

"That laugh.. " Saber said. "It.. can't be.."

"No.. the voice sounds slightly different.. it's not Frieza.." Miyoko said.
