Chapter 5 - A Worried Princess and a New Plan

After they were driving through this peaceful neighborhood, they felt bad about the people living here will be in the middle of their problems if they stay so they kept on passing through. They then stopped as they heard a loud commotion nearby.

A woman yelled, "Are fucking kidding me!? Why would you…? Get the fuck out!"

A man shouts, "Ok, ok you crazy…"

After hearing that, Jack and Sarah felt uncomfortable.

Jack said, "Let's continue. I don't want to get caught in the middle of this…"

Sarah agrees, "Yeah. Whatever this is, it's not something that we should get involved with."

They kept on driving through until they arrive at a road that leads to a highway road.

Jack said, "A highway? That could be bad news if we get caught on here."

Sarah asks, "So, are you a bit scared of me?"

Jack answers, "Scared? Why would I be?"

Sarah said, "Because of that over-worldly power of mine?"

Jack said, "Nah! It's just another reason why I must do what I said I'll do… to protect you from those men."

She smiles as she places her hands on her chest happy.

Sarah said, "Thank you, Jack. I'll tell you what I know."

Jack asks, "Oh? Is it story time?"

She laughs at Jack's silliness as she gently pushes him with her left hand.

Sarah answers, "Yes, you silly boy."

Jack chuckled and she did too as they both are in a silly mood for just this moment then Jack turns right into the highway before she began with her story about her past.

A man No. 3 asks, "Mr. Stone, what are our new orders?"

Mr. Stone answers, "(He sighs as he raises his head then lowers it before he pulls out a cigarette from his shirt pocket and pulls one out into his mouth. Another nearby man lights it with a metal flip lighter as Stone took two puffs and then blows the smoke from his mouth.) We are going to get a special team to deal with the princess. We are outgunned by her magic."
