Chapter 4-Capture Angel gasped and covered her mouth as she watched Percyous fall. Before his face fell face down Angel suddenly inhaled, closed her eyes, and smiled as she held her harp. Aizen, still tired from being used to draw out giant killing machines, simply groaned and closed his eyes. "What a pathetic group." A figure stepped into veiw as it bent over and pulled the knife loose. "I wonder why boss would want you, then agian you could be good for pleasure beutifull." The man kept talking as he walked closer to Angel. "What do you want?" Angel asked in a unwavering voice to the pirate who had a sword at his side, boots on his feet, trousers and a black torn shirt along with a black bandana wrapped around his head. "Im here complete me contract, got hired love. Now, why are you concerned about me and not your dead friend over there love?" was his reply as he stopped a few yards away from her. Angel stood and folded her arms at him and flashed him a smug smile. "Three things oaf. One, don't call me love. Two he's not my friend, he's just a servant. And three, he's not dead or even unconscious." At her last statement the pirate quickly tensed and turned around, as soon as he noticed the empty floor where Percyous had been he felt an arm around his neck as he was put in a headlock by Percyous. "Not the first time I've been stabbed rookie, next time try to go for the heart or the throught if you really want to kill. And check next time." Percyous said in a calm voice. "Now, either tell me who sent you or I'll snap your neck. Don't want to tell you boss in h*** that you failed do you?" "Didnt fail fool. Ever heard of a distraction?" The pirate grinned as Percyous immediatly figured out what he meant. He let go of the pirate and turned intime to see someone wearing a black cloth wrapped around their head and body so that the only part showing was his eyes and a strand of blue hair as his hands covered in a black glove covered Angel's mouth and the other arm wrapped around her waist. "Angel!!!!!!" Percyous immediatly ran towards Angel and her capture, his arm outstretched. But by the time he was able to reach them, the capture and angel had disapeared as shadows wrapped around them, and Percyous' fingers clutched the air. "No!" Percyous yelled as he clutched the air, however even as he slides to a stop part of the stone wall moved and broke away from the rest, it fell into the shape of a knight with it's helm down as it closelined Percyous. "Ugh....." He groaned as he managed to climb to his hands and knees intime to roll to the side and dodge a kick from the stone knight. He ended up next to Aizen who still hadn't made a sound. "You!" Percyous yelled as he picked up Aizen by his collar and pulled back his fist. "You could have saved her!" He yelled as his fist shot forward and knocked Aizen into the wall behind them. Percyous' hands were hidden in his cloak as he walked towards Aizen with pure hatred in his eyes. "A clan is another word for family! And you let her be captured! I'll kill you for abandoning you family!" Percyous' hand shot from under his cloak and covered Aizen's mouth and nose until he choked and fell still. "It's much better this way." He muttered as he was knocked unconscious by the Knight of stone.
Percyous groaned as his eyes opened and he began to take in his surroundings. He was currently in a wooden room with glass windows on every side and a door infront of him. However between that door and himself was a row of stone knights identicle to the ones next to him with their backs to the wall made entirely out of glass. Infront of the row of knights in the middle was another stone figure wore a cape, boo ts, chainmail and leggings, and had an expressionless face with hair that fell down one side of it's face emo-style. As Percyous opened his eyes the figure suddenly turned it's head to face him. It's "mouth" opened and it's deep voice called "Elzie!" and a girl appeared next to him. She had long greyish hair that fell past her knees, she wore long purple-ish boots that reached her knees and a light purple shirt. She also had bandages stained with blood wrapped around her hands and a brown eyes. "Yeah puppet?" She asked as she leaned her head to one side coyly and stared at him. "Thats puppetmaster to you, and why isn't the other one here?" "He's dead. And doesn't Puppetmaster sound dumb and braggy to you?" "First, it doesn't! Two don't get smug with me! The only reason we keep you around is because you are timelord's daughter! Now, shut up, and watch." at the mention of timelord a look of surprise crossed Percyous' face. "You are timelord's daughter? I thought he was just a myth." "How rude. You dare call my father imaginary?" Elsie crossed her arms, poured and looked away. "Er.... I'm sorry I-" "Silence!" The stone leader yelled and cut Percyous off. "Now Percyous, you know who I am don't you? Good. We can skip the evil ranting. Basicly, we'll kill you. Any last requests?" Percyous pondered the question for a minute before he answered. "Three actually, first, I want to see her power, I never thought i'd be able to see timelord's fabled magic. Two, I'd like to know what you have done to angel and why you want her. Three, I would like a bottle of ale." "Quite a little spoiled beat aren't you cousin? I guess out of kindness I'll grant you some of that. What we've done to her is none of your buisness. Why we want her... Well, of course now we no longer want her dead. Her family thought, if one Dragnor was able to help her run away, how well would all of them do in bringing her back? And as for her..... Go ahead." The statue nodded to elzie who suddenly disapeared then reapeared crouching infront of Percyous. "Im not as good as daddy, he can move time foreward, backward, and to a stop. I can only pause time. And I have my limits." Elzie was suddenly standing next to the statue agian as it continued talking. "As for the bottle......" at the moment a stone knight walked through the row of it's bretheren and handed percyous a bottle. "I can not believe a dragnor turned into a drunk. It is a good think Kane is the next heir and not you." The leader muttered as it watched percyous open the bottle, throw his head back, and drink. "Ah... Thank you. But I lied, I have one more request." Percyous said as he finished the bottle and slowly stood. "Hear me out." "The leader remained motionless as it watched Percyous begin to talk. "One, I don't get drunk. I have a high tolerence, two. I decided long ago what I would do if I was ever captured. This is a high cliff right? Judging from the thin air we are above the clouds. And wherever you are cousin. I would like you to know my descision. I decided, I would never be taken alive. Goodbye." At this last word Percyous pushed off and jumped backwards, he crashed through the glass wall and out into the open air. He then closed his eyes he offered up a quick silent prayer as he began to fall. And outloud the last thing he said was "I gave you a chance. Don't disapoint me, please do what I could not. Save Angel." and then he was out of sight and gone.

Chapter 5-The Dragnor Meeting The stone warrior marched down a corridor until it reached a set of thick wooden double doors. As soon as it came within a few feet of the doors the slowly but surely opened inwards revealing a red carpet with more stone knights lining the sides. At the end of the carpet was a row of living human beings, some had knives, some bows, some had swords strapped to their backs, etc. They were all kneeling with their backs to the door. Each of them faced a white screen that showed a single shadow. "Ah.... I am glad you finnaly made it cousin." A deep voice addressed the stone warrior as it took it's place kneeling with the others. "I am sorry sir, there were complications." The warrior whispered. "Oh? And what may they be?" "Well sir, Percyous managed to kill the other prisoner before I could knock him out. And he later commited suicide." "That's not a complication, that's a screw-up." "Im sorry sir, please forgive me" At this the warrior bowed it's head until it reached the floor, "I won't kill you for now, seeing that you command the stone army you are use full. But not irreplacable. And I find it rude that you never show up in person." "Sir, I am sorry, but you know that I prefer to use my puppets as my eyes, ears, mouth, and fists. In close combat I wouldn't be able to command them all and try not to get killed at the same time." "Fair enough-" The mysterious voice was cut off by the doors opening agian however this time for Mezelda. "Sorry i'm late, but I have importa-" "Silence. Now, as I was saying, this meeting is adjourned. Move to your pre-assighned posts and wait for further orders." "What do you want Mezelda?" Kane stood and stepped from behind the screen as he asked. "For one..... Is that any way to treat your wife?" Mezelda asked as she ran a hand down his muscular arm and smiled at him, "What is it?" Mezelda's smile fell as she momentarily looked away, then she leaned closer to Kane and whispered in his ear. "What!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I'll.... I'll...." "Please don't overreact, it'll be taken care of." Mezelda tried to calm down her husband and barely managed to keep him from destroying everything in sight. "It better be. I want the best on it, now." The identicle copy of Percyous withought his scar said angrily. "Hahaha, that sounds amazing. Can you please show me?" A muscular man with brown hair and brown eyes said to the tall muscular black eyed, bare chested, black haired man next to him. "Of course Terrance, but not now. We must get to our posts." The other man responded. "Yes Victor, you're right....." Terrance wore chainmail along with his helmet made of iron on his head. At his side was a one handed sword, he wore armour over his trousers and on his feet were iron boots. Victor was much taller so that he had to slightly stoop in the stone passageway as they walked towards an opening. He wore no shirt or helmet and only black boots and baggy trousers. On his back was a heavy two handed sword. "Oi! Who are you?" Victors called out to the man wearing nothing but a black shirt and pants. Terrance stepped foreward, grabbed the man by the collar and pulled back his fist "Answer him!" The man looked Terrance straight in his eyes and smiled. "No thanks, i'm good." Terrance immediatly threw a single punch aimed to crack the man's skull. Instead it was Terrence's iron gauntlet that cracked and broke.
Halloweeeeeeen special 1: A trip to the past Byercyous' twin and some of his little brothers. A few weeks earlier: "We're here." Percyous said as he stepped of the small boat. "Finaly!" Aizen stood and walked down the plank with an excited smile on his face. Angel opened the only cabin on the boat that had also served as her room on their journey. "Why are you so excited?" "Because I hear that there's a fish you can only catch here. They say it tastes like heaven......." Aizen began as a dreamy look began to spread over his face, "Figures. It's just like you to be thinking of meat on our mysterious vacation Percy brought together." Angel replied as she laughed and motioned towards the stony faced man who was currently carrying Angel's suitcases down a small path. "What's wrong with him?" Aizen turned curiously to Angel. "What do you mean?" "Nothing......." "Well, let's go," Angel and Aizen then walked off the boat and down the dirt path. The three stood infront of a large wooden house that stood about four stories high and overlooked a large lake. A few minute's walkfarthrr down the path that had brought then was a village. "It's been a while since we were last here, right Percyous?" Angel turned to him with a smile but was met by nothing more than a nod as he walked inside. "To our new vacation!" Angel raised her glass cheerfully and clinked it with Aizen's. "You gonna join in Big P?" Aizen tilted his head questioningly. "Dont call me that. No, I won't. I'm tired. I just want to drink my ale and be gone." He replied with a grunt as he leaned back in his chair and raised a bottle. "Wait......" He quickly began as he stopped, the liqued centermeters from his lips. However it was at that moment that Aizen bumped the table causing Percyous to accidently swallow the ale. "You idio-" Percyous began as he stood, but he immediatly collapsed to the floor. "Oh no......." Angel gasped as she bent next to him. "Are you sure this potion will work sir?you haven't even seen them." Angel asked the man whos long white beard reached the ground of his hut in the village. "They both drank the same ale correct? Same symptoms? Then this will work." His weak voice filled the air as he reasured her. "Thank you very much kind sir." Angel paid him, took the money, and left. "Was my acting good enough for you?" The old man's beard shrunk back into his chin as his bald hair grew blond hair and his wrinkled black eyes filled with life, seeming to grow younger and wrinkle free as they changed from black to blue. His back straightened and he grew taller as his white rob melted into his skin and was replaced by black trousers, a riped black shirt, and belt along with a cloak/cape. His short staff also straightened and grew from dark to light brown as he leaned agianst a wall. "Yes yes, you did very well." someone wearing a black cloth wrapped around their head and body so that the only part showing was his eyes and a strand of blue hair replied as he stepped out of the shadows and ran a gloved hand ran across the surface of a desk in a corner. They both had one thing in commen, they were two of the people who had been watching percyous when he beat up the goon in his resteraunt.
Angel sat next to Percyous' bed as she dabbed his forehead with a wet cloth and put a cup of water next to his bed incase he woke up. She pulled from her robe the half full potion bottle. "He should be better by now, Aizen only needed a quarter of this before he got better........" She murmered to herself as she telted his head and poured another quarter of the potion down his throught, waited until it went down his throught, then stood and left the room. "I remember that....." Angel said as she walked into the room where Aizen stood wearing black boots and trousers along with an open black buttoned vest staring at the picture that hung on the wall of four boys and three girls. All smiled happily as they held their arms around each other's shoulders. "Really? Who are they?" Aizen sat in a chair near him and turned curiously to Angel as she smiled and got a distant look on her face. As she also took a seat she sighed and said The one with the curly hair farthest to the left is hunter, beside him, the girl with the long black hair is Harmony, next to her with the black wavy hair is James, next to him with the red hair is Mezelda, next to her with the gloomy face and black hair is Kane, next to him is me, and next to me is Percyous." "That can't be Percyous, looks nothing like him. This kid is actualy smiling. And hr doesn't have a scar. And he looks happy. And non-homicidal. And-" "Can you stop that? I'm begining to feel uncomftorable keeping him around." "Sorry.... Anyway, how do you know those people?" "Well... Harmony is my cousin, Kane is Percyous' brother, James and Hunter are Percyous' friends, and Mezelda was Harmony and I's friend." "Why do you say was your-" Aizen stopped in midsentenve when they both heard a loud BUMP come from upstairs. "It must be Percy, he must be awake. Stat seated Aizen, I'll go check on him." Angel then rose and ran upstairs. "Percy! You're awake!" Angel exclaimed happily as she hugged him only to be met by groans of pain. "You look pale, stay in bed, I'll go get you some food." Angel turned to walk away but her wrist was grabbed by a cold hand. "Give.....it.....to....me...... I can..... Heal.... Myself....... Please....." she heard Percyous croak weakly as he slowly moved to a sitting position. Angel, too worried to detect the change in him and his voice, immediatly produced his soul seemingly out of thin air, handed it to him, and smiled. "Feel better?" She asked. Percyous smirked and stood as he held the weopon in his left hand and moved towards Angel. "Of course I do. But I have one thing to say to you." "What is it?" "You are a fool." He smiled wickidly as his hand shot out towords her. Aizen opened the door stating "I heard something, what-" Instead of the heartwarming scene he expected to find he was met by Percyous with his weopon (that had grown to the size and shape of a katana and who's hilt and sheath had gone from pure white to pitch black) straped to his belt and an evil grin of pleasure on his face. Angel, who was had turned blue and looked like she was about to pass out, had a look of shock on her face as her hands desperatly clawed at Percyous' hand right hand that was wrapped around her throught and caused her to dangle a foot above the ground. As soon as he saw what was happening Aizen wasted no time, in a matter of seconds Percyous disapeared through the door covered I scrapes and bruises, Angel lay in a heap on the floor, and Aizen stood victorious with a single cut across his stomach.
Aizen quickly picked Angel up, carried her downstairs, and gently placed her on a cough. "You feelin' ok?" he asked Angel as he handed her a glasss of water. "Im fine. Now, let's go catch him." she replied as she sat up and put the glass on a table. "No." "Why not?" "You're hurt." "No I'm not! Anyway you don't have a choice, I'm coming." At her retort Aizen sat in silence for a few seconds with his usual blank look on his face. "Ok." He finally said as he got up and left the room. "You sure he is in this village?" Aizen whispered to Angel as his bare feet walked down the stone path winding through the village. "I already explained it to you, there's no way to know exactly where he has gone. We can only guess. And this is a logical-" Angel's explanation suddenly stopped as a man wearing a three cornered hat, a black coat, black trousers, black boots, and a loose red shirt walked out of a large stone building as he waved goodbye to two girls smiling and waving back at him. "See you next time I'm in town girls!" The man smiled, winked, and started walking down the road. As he walked past someone with a black cloak, black boots, and a black hood that hid their face, the hooded person joined him in walking. "James? Is that you?" Angel suddenly blurted out questioningly. The man wearing the hat stoped and turned. "Hey Angel! How have you been?" James asked with a smile. "He went bad eh? I knew it would happen one day......." James said with a grim face as he, Angel, Aizen, and the mysterious person sat at a table inside a tavern. "Yeah..... Anyway, will you help us find him?" Angel asked. "I could never say no to a lady as beutiful as you love." James said as he smiled at Angel agian. "Um.... Who is the shadow?" Angel asked curiosly as she motioned towards the silent, hooded person sitting across from Aizen. "Ah.... Well don't be shy, go ahead and introduce yourself!" James exclaimed as he nudged the hooded figure. The person leaned foreward, ignoring Aizen who at the moment was digging into a plate full of meat, and held a hand out to Angel. "Names Alexess, but you can call me Alex. I'm this idiot man's first mate." Alex pulled back her hood to reveal an atractive woman with blond hair and electric blue eyes. "Im Angel, it's a pleasure to meet you." Angel replied as she reached out and shook the hand offered to her. "Yeaaaahhhhh Alex here doesn't like men very much." James said with a nervous chuckle as he leaned back. "Your friend, who you are about to try to kill, said it best when he told Angel, "All men are scum."." Alex replied crossly as she folded her arms and looked away. "How did you know he said that?" Angel stared at Alex curiously until James finally said "He sends us letters every few weeks. Didn't he tell you? That's why we're even in this village. We just got here today after we were asked by him to come." "Yet you've already become a member of their carberet club." Alex said suddenly. "Hey, those girls are nice, and is it so wrong to support a local buisness and a growing economy?" James replied defensively. Alex only replied with a huff as she continued to stare away. "Well, back to the point, you have my ship, my crew, and my life Angel." James suddenly turning serious. "Thank you, but I'm not in charge. He is." Angel said with an amused smile as James rollers her finger to Aizen who was in the middle of stuffing three turkey legs into his mouth at the same time. "You have my sympathy." Alex said quietly as Aizen looked up blankly at them, lost concentration, and nearly choked.
"They have found him. If we hurry we can catch up." James said as he strapped two shotguns to his back. "Make sure everyone is ready Alex." He said over his shoulder as he strapped two swords to his waist. "Understood." Alex replied calmly then raised her hood and climbed up the ladder. "Wake up!" James sudenly turned the kicked the hammock that held a snoring Aizen. As James' foot connected with Aizen, Aizen let out a loud snort as he toppled out of his hammock. "But moooooommmmyyyyyyyyy..........." He began as he lay on the floor still half asleep. "I got this one." Angel said as she smiled, stood and bent over near Aizen and whispered "Bacon." at this word Aizen's head popped up as he became fully alert and asked "Where?" Angel smiled at her success then turned and walked back over to her couch where her harp lay. As Angel began to gently strum the strings James reached into a closet and brought his hands back out holding a fiddle and bow. "For you." He said as he handed it to Angel. "You still play?" he asked quietly. Angel smiled, put her harp down, put the fiddle to her shoulder and held the bow to the strings. She quickly brought the bow across the strings and played a string of notes that seemed to float in the air. "Apparently I do." She replied with a smile. Percyous stood on the left side of and slightly behind a throne made of wood. "What are my orders sir?" He asked with a blank look on his face as he adressed the man cloaked in black who sat on the throne. "First of all, it's Master to you. Second, we wait." He replied solemly as the blond man armed with a staff who stood on his right began to shift his weight. "Getting bored are we?" The hooded man asked withought turning around. "Of course not Blad-" "That's LORD Blade to you. Or King. Either way they will come, Jake." Blade interupted him as he closed his eyes, raised five gloved fingers and counted "Five, four, three, two, one, aaaaaand...... Boom." his eyes opened as part of the stone walls to the large building collapsed and Aizen, Angel, James, and Alexess steped into veiw through the dust. "It is as I said Jake. Now, you, Percyous and the others can go loose." Blade said with a bored tone as he rested his chin on a closed fist. "But..... Lord..... Blade. Four isn't enough to-" "Four? Try two hundred." Blade said just before the dust cleared to reveal James' crew all armed to the teeth. "What can I say? We have a big boat." James said with a smile as he grabbed the hilt of one of his swords and took a step foreward. "Alright men! There's only three of em! All the gold they're sitting on is ours after they die!" James yelled motioning towards the huge pile/wall of gold that sat behind the throne. At this Blade chuckled behind the cloth/mask that hid all but his eyes from veiw as he raised his right hand and snapped. "Who said anything about it just being us three?" He laughed as Knights marched through two open doors and formed rows between the pirates and Blade. "Knights?!?!?!?!?!?!?" James exclaimed questioningly. "What's the governement doing here?!?!?!?!?!?" "Apparently a lot." Alex replied as five colima of soldiers wearing all red and with muskets with boyanets attached marched until they reached the back of the lines forming a final defense from the pirates.. "You came here for a fight? You are going to get one." Blade said calmy as he stood and walked a few steps foreward. At this Jake and Percyous began to walk foreward until they were nearly at the front of the lines. Percyous wore Chainmail, black trousers, and his weopon while Jake wore a simple black robe. "Ready?" James whispered to Angel. When she noded in reply James yelled "ATTACK, DESTROY AND PLUNDER!" as he and his army ran towards the knights. James turned, caught a shotgun that was being tossed to him, turned back to face the haldberd carrying knight infront of him, and pulled the Trigger. That shot brought with it the sounds of murder, death, destruction, and pain.
