chapter 24

"Sukar!"

.

.

.

"Sukar!"

.

.

.

"Wake up!"

.

.

.

Someone is calling his name.

Sukar slowly opens his eyes as he's about to wake up. Then found himself in an empty room.

But he's not alone, which is Mele and Felisa.

"Mele? Felisa? What just happened? How did we end up inside of this room? And, where are the others?" Sukar asked?

"I'm not sure? I just woke up inside of this room." Said Mele.

"I remember that we were attacked by a dragon, and we got separated once we entered this planet of Dragons." Sukar recalled.

"I don't know how we ended up in this room. But if we're in the dragon planet, that means we won't be able to use powers."

"Not very well, as it would malfunction if we try to use it. But what matters is to look around where we are, and find the others."

"Yeah, about that..."

Mele points out that they are inside of a laser prison cell. When they look closer from the outside of this prison cell, this place turns out to be a prison where inmates are being held. Realizes that they were brought into prison while they were unconscious.

While they're discussing, Felisa hasn't said anything to them. Where she only sleeps in a literal cat position which Sukar tries to wake her up.

When she wakes up, Felisa makes a violent reaction where she angrily scratches him with her claws and gives a hostile hissing as she crawls backwards.

Sukar may have avoided getting scratched from her, they are confused on why Felisa is acting weird. Noticing she's acting like a literal cat.

"Meow!"

Felisa doesn't act like her old self and doesn't seem to recognize her own friends.

Sukar states it might have been affected by the energy crystals.

"Maybe, this might be the effects of the energy crystals that made her like this."

"How are you so sure? Wasn't that supposed to affect superpowers that make them go haywire?"

"But you do know that Felisa's powers are related to her own animal species, right? This would affect her own animal instincts as well."

"Oh... so we're stuck with that cat on our side, huh?"

"But let's just focus on how we could get out of this place."

Then, someone is approaching their prison cell. Which appears to be a Dragon, (in humanoid form), wearing a warden uniform.

Sukar: who are you supposed to be?

???: I am Jin-shu, I'm the prison guard.

Mele: a prison guard? Then, why are we in the prison?!

Sukar: how long we have been in here?

Jin-shu: about 5 hours ago. It all started when you three came out from the sky where you crashed land on the city. Since there's a law that outsiders like you are not allowed to step foot on this planet.

Mele: so what are you going to do? Kill us?

Jin-shu: Although we intended to execute outsiders, we'll have to bring you to the Royal knights for some interrogation.

Sukar: like what? What do they want from us?

Jin-shu: but you have to wait until royal knights would bring you there. But if you have nothing to give any information to the knights, they'll execute you on the next day, along with the rest.

They realize that the prison guard was referring to the superiors that they were trying to rescue. They demand where they are only to be dismissed as the prison guard leaves.

"Hey! You can't just leave us in here! Get back here!" Mele angrily tries to call out for the prison guard and attempt to punch her way out. However, the laser shocks her and she falls back.

Mele: ahhh!

Sukar: Mele! *approaches to her* you okay?

Jin-shu: *stops* it's no use. There's no chance to escape in this full proof cell. Even that keeps anyone from using their powers.

Mele: say what?

Sukar: we won't be able to use our powers?

Jin-shu: indeed. So it's best for you to remain silent and behave yourself, until the royal knights arrive *then leaves*.

Mele: what should we do now?

Sukar: I don't know...

As they are lamented with no where to escape,

"Meow!"

Felisa continues to act like an actual cat.

"Even this cell would keep anyone from using superpowers, the effects still mess up her head." Sukar said while he sweat dropped.

"Yeah..." Mele agreed.

.

.

.

.

.

Meanwhile...

Jericho, Yuri, and Lee-yu arrive at the place of the desert so no other dragons would find them.

Once they stepped foot on the ground after Lee-yu landed and shifted back to her humanoid form,

Jericho: you think there might be dragons around here?

Yuri: I can't tell.

Lee-yu: well, I don't see any dragons.

Jericho: but, are you feeling okay?

Yuri: I think so.

Lee-yu: I'm okay. I'm still strong.

Then, they ask Jericho on what device he had use to fend off the knight dragons. He explains that he asked Eelin to build the sword handle that can grant elemental powers from the gems he had collected, with the use of the crystal Eelin had collected from the hidden island. Since he has connections to them, Jericho decided to use them as weapons.

However, Jericho is feeling guilty for unintentionally killing the army of dragon knights. Feeling careless on not using the powers carefully and worries that he might hurt his friends or anyone else.

The girls try to reassure him that it will never happen and it was meant to protect them as he has no choice. But Jericho claims that there will be consequences for this actions.

"Don't mind them, Jericho. They're not worth it." Lee-yu bluntly convinces him not to bother about it.

Much to Jericho and Yuri's disbelief of Lee-yu's sudden change of her attitude, seeing how bitter she has become upon arriving on her home planet.

They remember when they first met Lee-yu where she had run away from her home planet because she was not happy living there. Which is exactly like the rest of the Dragons. Thinking if the king might be truly evil who has caused everyone to suffer from his control, since they witnessed the public execution just because of opposing against the ruler. Also has no one else to be with because she has lost her parents.

Seeing how upset she is,

"I think we should not talk about this" Jericho whispers to Yuri. "We should rest for awhile now."

"Alright. Also, you're all wounded. But I see a river nearby. So you need to clean yourself up, and wash off those wounds." Yuri suggested. Seeing blood all over his body.

"Okay. Just stay right there and wait until I come back."

"What? You think I'm gonna peep on you while you're bathing?"

"*Blushes*...!!! It's not what I meant! Geez...! What's up with your mind?"

Jericho calls her out for this, while Yuri doesn't react from it as she remains stoic.

"Nevermind. Just go clean yourself up."

"GRRR... Fine. Whatever."

Jericho is irritated and heads over to the river.

Elsewhere of the dragon planet...

It is located in the palace run by the ruler of this planet where the king of the dragons, who goes by the name Ri-yu, is sitting on the throne.

While a female dragon, who is the chancellor named Ler-na came and kneeled down to his highness to inform about the news. It is about the construction that their subordinates are working on, which it's almost done so they can use it tomorrow.

But that's not all, there are more outsiders brought to the prison and they'll bring them to this palace for some interrogation.

Then, someone came to the throne to see the king. Appearing to be wearing a knight dragon attire, which is the captain of the army. While carrying an unconscious person.

"What brings you here this time?"

"Your highness. The outsiders, they have managed to enter to our planet! I tried to annihilate them but they are all scattered." It turns out that the captain of the knights was the one who attacked Jericho's group.

"Hmmm... How many of them?"

"I'm not sure. They're a lot of them."

"I see. But, let me inform you that there are only three outsiders were brought to the prison after they crashed on to the city. And they'll be here soon for some interrogation."

"But I caught one of them" the unconscious person who turned out to be none other than Lumi! Being the only one to be captured.

"... Huh? Where am I...?"

Then Lumi starts to open her eyes as she's starting to wake up. "Your highness, she's starting to wake up."

"Let me have a look."

Ri-yu stands up to approach Lumi.

Once the captain put her down by her foot to stand up, Ri-yu gives a look at which she becomes intimidated,

"Ummm, hello. Who are you... And what place is this?" Lumi sheepishly asked.

Only to immediately anger the captain and the chancellor as they don't tolerate anyone to disrespect their highness.

"You brat! Do you not know who he is?"

"He's the ruler of all the dragons!"

The royal knights raise their weapons against her.

"What? Oh... Ummm... Sorry. I just..." Lumi doesn't know what to say as they are threatening her own life.

Then Ri-yu has something to say to her where his serious expression changes.

"You really are cute." He said casually with a smirk.

"Eh?!" Which only startled her.

"So what are you supposed to be?" he asked.

Before Lumi would respond, her body suddenly glowing.

"Huh? What's going-... Ahhh!!!"

Her body started to shoot hundreds of stars everywhere.

Making the king to step back to avoid being blasted. While the rest of the dragons shield themselves, but the stars wreck the entire throne.

Once Lumi has stopped blasting the stars, she realizes that it was the energy crystals that caused her powers to lose control.

"You brat! Were you planning to assassinate the king?!" The chancellor accuses her.

While the guards are about to charge against her. But Ri-yu halted them as he wanted to observe Lumi.

"So you can control the stars, huh?"

"Oh, I'm so sorry for this. I wasn't trying to attack you. It happened because-"

She was interrupted when Ri-yu ask Ler-na on what Lumi's species is. Only she does not known her own species.

Ri-yu becomes interested in Lumi's powers since it's connected to space, he orders the guards to send her to the dungeon and bring the scientist so they could experiment on her powers.

Once the guards comply with his orders, they all surround Lumi just to bring her into the dungeon. She couldn't think of a way to escape and find the others, now that she's surrounded by dragons, aware that they're known to be powerful to face against. So Lumi has no choice but to follow the guard's order without protesting against them.

Elsewhere, where it's located in the jungle.

Eelin and Magi have already found each other and explore around the jungle to look for everyone else.

But they are so fascinated by the environment that they got themselves distracted where they took pictures and collected the plants for an experiment once they would return home.

But then, they hear a rustling sound that comes from the trees and bushes.

"*ROARS!!!*"

They hear a terrifying sound which they realizes that there's an incoming threat that's coming for them.

Causing the two to make a run for it.

"Ahhh!!!"

.

.

.

.

.

In the prison where Jin-shu and the rest of the prison guard brings out Sukar, Mele, and Felisa so they could take them to the Royalties. While they put them on chains so they won't escape,

"Meow!"

Felisa, still acting like an actual cat, violently tries to fend off the guards.

"Felisa, stop! Calm down!" Sukar pleaded.

Until all of the guards pinned her down.

"Hey! Leave her alone!" Mele shouts out.

They even put muzzle mask on her mouth.

"Now get moving!" Jin-shu ordered.

The three are forcefully dragged by the guards by the chains. Which also has an anti power device on it to keep them from using their powers.

As they go through the hallway where they reach the elevator, Sukar begins to beat off the guards as he plans to escape.

One of the guards uses a spear to give a strike, but Sukar grabs the spear by his teeth and uses it to fend off the guards. Then breaks the handcuffs off Mele allowing her to take down all of the guards in a single blow, which causes them to be sent flying through every wall.

Once Mele tears off the handcuffs including the muzzle mask, only when Jin-shu quickly comes back for them. But Felisa instantly tackles the prison guard which she brutally attacks him by using her claws to give him a scratch on his face.

"Gah! Got off of me! You filthy creature!"

Forcing Sukar to grab her and flee.

"So what's the plan, Sukar?" Mele asked.

"Well, it's not just us to bail out from this prison, it's someone who needs us to bail them out. That's why we're here." Sukar respond.

Jin-shu now has scratches on his face, sets the alarm to alert more troops to recapture the prisoners.

Even Sukar's group noticed the alarm which they are in big trouble.

They have to think of a way to hide before they would get caught. Until Sukar spotted a security room nearby and decided to hide in there. So Mele uses her strength to open the door then closes the door shut after they get inside, at the right time to evade the guards.

They thought they were safe...

"Hey you! You're not supposed to be here!"

They ended up encountering the security guard.

Only Felisa immediately jumps towards the guard to give a scratch.

But when the security guard angrily shoves her off, Mele gives a powerful blow that sends him flying through the walls.

After that, Sukar tries to search for through the footages to look for the top superiors. Until he learned that they are at the bottom of this building which is at the sixth floor.

But when the prison guards try to get the door open as they attempt to barge into this room just to search for the escape prisoners. Once they break into this room, there's no one inside but with the hole on the wall.

It turns out that the trio have gone inside of the air vent to escape.

While Sukar is taking the lead, Mele struggles to push Felisa forward while avoiding her claws that Felisa tries to scratch her.

"Hey! Quit it already!"

"Hiss!"

Until Sukar noticed something below at the air vent as there's light.

"Guys look what I found."

So they went down to check it out, which there's no one in this room but filled materials being placed. Seeing that the materials are all weapons, gadgets, etc., They realize that this was a storage room for the confiscated materials that once belonged to the criminals, including their own belongings.

As they proceed to retrieve their belongings, Sukar has found his and tries to use his Alpha license to contact others. But to no avail since it doesn't have much power from the energy crystal since it suddenly disappeared.

"*Crash!*"

Sukar hears a ruckus and turns around to see what's going on. Only to see Mele using a laser pointer and playfully makes Felisa chase after a glowing dot. Which she ended up causing a mess around this room while chasing after it.

"Meow!"

"Hahaha!"

"Hey! This isn't the right time to mess around-"

Sukar tries to give a lecture but his eyes start to open wide open as he suddenly freezes. A moment later, he screams in pain while holding his head.

"Hey! Hey! Sukar! What's wrong?"
Mele wonders what's wrong with him.

Sukar states that it felt like his head starts ringing like his senses are trying to alert him that there might be a serious threat, but doesn't know as he only felt that it's everywhere which overwhelms his head. Only to realize that it's because of the effects of the energy crystals passing over which happens right now.

Mele is about to approach to help him, but she also got effected as well. Like something has unleashed her powers. Which her body is surrounded by orange energy. As she's surprised to see her powers start to generate into four energy arms behind her back.

Although Mele is stunned by this new ability that she has not known, it started to lose control where the energy arms uncontrollably start to punch everywhere, which wrecks around the room.

"Woah! Woah! Stop it!"

She struggles to stop her powers from causing damages including harming the others, only to end up smashing the wall to make a hole in it.

Then the smashing won't last when the energy four arms start to vanish as it wears off.

Including Sukar who no longer felt any headache. But becomes surprised to see the wreckage of this room.

"Mele, what did you do?"

Before she would explain.

"Gasp!"

They all turn attention when they hear the voice, which is one of the prison guard dragons upon seeing through the hole on the wall. Causing to alert the rest of the guards, which they all quickly enter inside of this room to confront the three.

Now they're surrounded, one of the guards attempts to pursue them.

Sukar has to think fast before it's too late. He grabs one of the confiscated items to defend themselves which is a metal staff.

When he tries to counter the attack where he swings the staff, it creates an energy wave to give a blow to the guards.

Sukar is surprised as he never thought this weapon had a special ability.

So he decided to use this staff to fend off the guards which the staff can make the attacks much stronger whenever he gives a strike.

With the prison guards being knocked down unconscious, the trio exited the room. Unfortunately, more army of prison guards are in the hallway.

They have to find a way to escape, which they see the door open. But it's way behind the army that they have to go through them. Only when an irate Felisa instantly attacks the army to scratch their faces once again, then pursue the rest.

Before Mele would join, however, her powers still malfunction with the energy of four arms appearing behind her back since it's still malfunctioning, causing the arms to punch uncomfortably once again. Only to become handy when Mele gives the whole army a blow.

As Sukar raises the staff to prepare to fight, he drops the staff because his powers lose control as well as his senses start ringing non-stop which he's unable to focus on from the headache.

Which gives opportunity for one of the prison guards to capture Sukar by putting handcuffs on his hands.

But then, Sukar no longer felt any headache anymore as his senses stopped ringing. He realizes that the handcuffs have anti-power devices on them.

Mele came over to knock out the prison guard in front of Sukar. Even though her powers are still out of control, she is going to use her strength to take off the handcuffs. But Sukar declines because this can keep his powers from losing control and giving him headaches.

So Sukar picks up the staff to fight off the army after assuring he can still wield this weapon even if he has handcuffs on. Then charge towards the army to launch an attack.

They managed to over power the prison guards where they have reached the door, but it's going to shut close. So Mele carries Felisa as they rush towards the closing door where they slide under the door, right before they manage to escape from being captured by the prison guards.

Now they are in the other place as the prison guards couldn't break through, however...

A laser guns that aiming at the three and is about to fire at them.

"Oh no..."

.

.

.

.

.

In the royal palace of dragons...

The royal guard dragon came to pick up Lumi in the dungeon which is a laser prison cell.

However, the royal guard sees through the laser cell that there's no one inside the cell.

"What the-"

So the royal guard uses the key to shut off the laser cell and enter inside to check if there's any trace of the prisoner.

While looking around, unbeknownst to the guard, Lumi is hanging over the ceiling.

Once the guard faces the wall, this gives Lumi a chance to jump down to the ground and exit the cell.

Causing the guard to turn around and becomes shocked yet is angry for the deception.

"Stop!

Then starts to charge towards in attempt to catch her. But Lumi switched the key to turn on the laser cell, that's when the guard ended being electrocuted and passed out.

Lumi retrieve her belongings that was placed, then takes the key and uses it to open the door so she can leave the dungeon.

She tries to look for a way out but has no idea where she is in the big palace.

But noticed that there's a group of knights coming over in this hall and tries to hide from them.

As Lumi tries to stay quiet...

"Huh? What's happening?"

Her body suddenly glows gold, because the effects of the energy crystals happened right now.

With this, she transforms into a form of shooting star once again. Unable to control this form, Lumi ended up zooming extremely fast as a light where she flies around the hall uncontrollably. Which she accidentally bumps on to the royal knights.

Once the effects wear off where Lumi stops and went back to normal while she falls on the floor, however, she ends up being exposed to the knights.

"Hehehe..."

Lumi laughs nervously while seeing the serious expression of the Knight's faces as she's in big trouble. So she tries to flee from getting herself recaptured again.

"Ahhh!!!"

.

.

.

.

.

"Ahhh!!!"

Both Eelin and Magi run for their lives as something is chasing after them.

When something burst out from the woods, it appears to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex like monster.

They have to think of a to take down the T-Rex monster, but instead, they both admitted that they can be both incompetent when it comes to physical combat.

Magi has always been depending on her sister while she needed her support. Eelin only relies on her intelligence and her inventions, but now they're all useless now that they're stuck in the dragon planet.

But with the T-Rex monster is now closer and almost pursue them, Magi panic as she uses her powers for self defense.

But instead on the T-Rex monster, it cast on the trees and something is happening.

"Magi. What did you do to those trees?" Eelin said in grimace as she noticed that the trees started to gain glowing eyes and made a creepy looking expression that makes her feel uneasy.

"I think... I brought them to life..." Said Magi as she realized what she had done when she transformed the trees into a living monster.

Although they are frightened by their monstrous appearance, the trees started to attack the T-Rex monster. This gives them a chance to escape.

However, one of the tree monsters grabs Magi and tries to eat her.

"Eelin, help!"

"Hang on!"

Eelin subdues the tree monster by using her scarf to give a whip just to make the tree monster let go of Magi.

After she's released, however, more tree monsters block their way as they're about to pursue them.

Only when Eelin grabs one of her gadgets which is the grenades and tosses at the tree monsters. Which they all blow up to ashes while the girls takes cover from the explosion.

When they see that the paths are cleared out, they proceed to escape.

Once they hid themselves in the middle of the woods after fleeing as far as they could from the monsters, they noticed that this area is filled with wreckage of the machines all over this place.

As they wonder where they come from, the piece of metal suddenly begins to fly towards Eelin and sticks on to her.

"Huh?! Hey! Got off me!"

She tries to remove, more pieces of metals fly over and stick all over her body. Even she couldn't remove them as well. Eelin realize that her technopathy powers are now malfunctioning that causes her to attract metal like a magnet.

"It's stuck, I cannot get them off me." Eelin said while struggling to remove the pieces of metals.

"Maybe I could try to use my power to remove them." Magi suggested.

"You don't need to do that. We can't use our powers in this planet." Eelin declines. But another piece of metal begins to stick on her face. "Nevermind... just get those things off me. I can barely breathe. Just try to be careful."

"Okay, I'll try to give a shot. I hope..."

Magi starts to use her magic in attempt to remove the metal off Eelin. But it backfires.

"What the... ahhh!!!"

It ended up turning all the metals into snakes!

With the snakes wrapping all over her body,

"Ahhh... Magi, do something!"

"Err... right."

She tries to use her magic once again. But this time, the snakes turn into cockroaches!

"Ahhh! Get off me!"

Now with the cockroaches swarming all over her body, this freaks out Eelin where she runs around screaming. Then drops herself and rolls her body on the ground to get them off.

Magi is stressed out on thinking of a way to help out Eelin. Until she hesitantly gives one last shot of her magic. Which she cast to disintegrate the roaches to bits.

Eelin may be okay only Magi sheepishly apologizes to her many times.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm just doing my best to-"

"Nevermind now! Just... get rid of those metal so they won't get attached to me."

Magi complies and she casts magic to get rid of all the metal objects around this area. Because of the effects from the energy crystals, she turned into something else, rather than make them disappear that she was supposed to do. Like turning into bubbles, flowers, small alien creatures, etc. But at least Eelin won't get attached from the metal.

They thought that they were safe, however...

A binding vine appeared in a massive speed as it instantly captured Eelin and Magi. Which turns out to be a giant Venus fly trap like monster that came out as it was the one that captured the girls and it's going to eat them.

They try to subdue the monster where Magi attempts to use her powers. But the plant monster started to blow some kind of a powder on her face, which she suddenly fell asleep after.

"Hey Magi... what's wrong with you? Wake up! Wake up! We're about to be eaten! Wake up!"

Eelin tries to call out for her upon witnessing the plant monster uses sleeping powder to make Magi fall asleep.

She tries to do something, but the vines tighten up that suffocate her.

Now they are left helpless from the plant monster...
