Muroku walked nervously down the hallway with Muu in front of her. How long was it been since she actually had human contact. 300 years.......
Muu looked back behind him and couldn't help but eye her. She looked familiar but couldn't figure out where he's seen her. Not to mention his younger brother will be in huge trouble. 4 damn months he's been missing. The stopped at Lady Scheherazade's door. He knocks and hears a soft voice say enter. They go in and a small smile came onto Muroku's lips.
"It's been 200 years, has it not Scheherazade?" Muroku smiles.
Scheherazade turned around and her eyes widened when she saw her.
"M-Master?" The Magi walked up to her still in shock.
Muroku nodded and patted her apprentice head.
"I see things haven't changed, however you are not the real Scheherazade, am I correct?" She smiled and the Magi stiffened.

Muu grabbed the hilt of his sword bit......

"WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING BACK HERE?! AND WHERE'S KIMI AND CARIA!!!???"

And immediately Muu faced palmed. The loud mouth of his brother must of just woken up. And a great chat he will have with him. What's more, they need to find out if it was him, or the other four that conquered the dungeon raised by Lady Scheherazade. She is still upset for the dungeon that she raised about a year ago, was stolen by someone unknown. All she was able to tell was that it was a woman.

"I'll could tell you if I want to, but I won't. But she didn't steel it out of I'll intention. She wants to become stronger because something evil is coming in the future. But I'll give you one clue, she is a princess on the run."

That damn Yunan didn't help at all. What more with the alliance with Sindria in the process, things have been stressful. Muu excuses himself as he does to see his younger brother.

Alphonse kept running from room to room looking for his friends. He needs to get Kimi to leave Reim immediately, because it is most likely that they have revived the news that the Ren Princess is on the run. And also, Scheherazade will have her head for stealing two of the dungeons she's raised. A complete set she now has. Two from Yunan, two from Judar, and two from Scheherazade, and Kurumi chose to become her djiin at free will.

7 djiins.....

Kimi is now as strong as Sinbad....

If not.....stronger.....

SHIT!!!

Yup....definitely needs to get out of Reim.

"Found you!" Alphonse yells as he found Caria's room.
"I'M AWAKE! I'M AWAKE!!" Caria shot awake from her sleep.
"Huh....wha?" She looked all around confused.
She was in a nice fancy Greek style bedroom. She looked to the door and saw Alphonse, and it hit her. They are in Reim.
"So......explain to me how we ended up in your home...?" Caria said as she got up.
Alphonse sighs.
"We need to find Kimi. It's possible that they have already received the news that Kimi is on the run. I found a poster of her, and I used Stolas to get rid of each and every single one in Reim." He said.

In Kimi's room, she woke up and looked all around. She sighs in relief to see her kids sleeping next to her. She doesn't know where they are but she gets her metal vessels and hides them in a space. She touched the crown her forehead and smiles. She is now Shido's master. She then touches the amulet that was given to her by Sheba.
"Ancient rukh of the great king and queen and his followers, answer my prayers and lend me your strength. Come forth and awaken oh great divine staves!" She said and the amulet began to glow.
She smiles as she touched the staff. It was her father's staff. A gold tritant with a purple jewel, and on her neck, the lotus blossom necklace her mother gave her. She's upset that she never found the other half though. She stood up and wanted to test out if she could do magic.

"Let's try something simple...." she thought.
She tapped the tritant gently on the floor and closed her eyes. Her feat slowly began to lift off the ground. She opens her eyes and grins. She floats back down. She touched one of the rukh and sensed Alibaba is in Reim now. She used her now new magic to change her appearance.
Dark blue hair, with a gold jewel crown, she now wears a blue black dress. Her eyes, color pink like a Fanalis.

She wakes up Crow and Kanna.
"You kids what to go visit Alibaba?" Kimi grins.
They immediately recognized the mischievous grin. It was their mother but she must of used magic to change her appearance. They grin, and Kimi used her staff and they teleported to the Coliseum.

- Kimi POV -

Well aren't I Sinnamon roll? No way am I gonna get caught. But I'm glad Alibaba is now here. We walked towards the coliseum and I see people talking about a new person.

"Did you hear about that new guy?"

"Amazing he is!"

"He's so cute!"

I smile and I spot a familiar blonde horn. The eyes of a hawk I have. I run towards him and Crow and Kanna behind me.
"Alibaka! Alibaka!" I yell.
I see his horn point up and her turns towards my direction.
"It's Alibaba! Ali-----!! Who are you?" Alibaba looked at me confused.
"Ufufucfufu~ Alibaba boy~ don't tell me you forgotten about me?" I giggled.
He then looked behind me and saw Kanna and Crow, then it hit him.
"KOUG------!!!" I quickly covered the idiots mouth before he screamed my name.
I pulled his ear down.
"You idiot! Keep it down!" I whispered scream in his ear.
I let go of him and he nodded. He motioned us to follow him. We went down to the bottom of the stadium. We went in the infirmary room and he closed the door. I undid my spell and turn back to normal.
"It's been awhile?" I grin.
"What happened to you?! Your hair is short! A-And what happened to your eye!? And why did Kou declare you a traitor and why is Sinbad after you?!" He kept asking questions and I smack him on the head to calm him down.
"Calm down geez! First take a deep breath and sit down." I said and he did just that.

"Sorry...it's just....I'm glad to see you again. After that letter you left us, we were really worried." He gave me a small smile and I sigh.
"Sorry....the empress of the Kou Empire declared me a traitor because she wants me dead. She and I have never gotten along. As for Sindria, I don't know why the King is after me. I don't remember meeting him at all." I sighed and ruffled my hair a bit.
"Mama....you have met the king, remember?" Crow said.
I shook my head.
"I don't have any memory of ever meeting him, I swear.(turns to Alibaba) Alibaba, is it true?" I asked him and he nodded.
"Out of curiosity, how many djiins do you have now?" He asked and I smirked.
"7 Alibaba, 7." I burst out laughing at his face.

We then hear the door about to open and I quickly change my appearance. The one that came is Toto. I smile and wave at her. She looked at me confused.
"Alibaba, who is this?" Toto asked him.
"Sorry. Toto, this iiiissssssssss.......Lissana! This is Lissana. She's a friend of mine I made in Balbadd." He said and I sweat drop.

Really Alibaba, Really?

"It's a pleasure to meet you Lissana. I'm Toto. And who are the the kids?" She asked.
"This is my daughter Kanna, and my son, Crow." I said and she looked at me shocked.
"So young! Are you here to participate in the gladiator fights?" She asked.
I thought about it. I plenty of money thanks to all the treasure I have, but I can use it to free people.
"I'll fight one. Besides, it's been forever since I had a fight." I grin.
Alibaba walked up to me and whispered in my ear that I can't use metal vessels. I gave him a deadpanned look and he sweat drops.

As I head to the front desk to sign up, I see Muu speaking to Myron. They look my way and I smile. But....

"Filthy brat! Get up!"

I stop and turn around. A man was whipping a slave but I froze. It was a child. Blue pale eyes, white hair with two small braids, part of it shaved. He wore a gold purple toga. He kept trying to stand up. He was Aladdin's age.....

Right when the man was about to punch him again.
"WHAT FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING TO HIM?!?!" I screamed in rage as I caught his wrist.
The man looked shock. Kanna and Crow run up to boy and help him. I look back the man and glare.
"I was just teaching him a lesson." The bastard smirked.
I crushed his wrist and he screamed in pain. I take off my eye patch and use Kurumi's power on him, trapping him in a illusion of eternal pain. The man passed out and his eyes blank.  I put back my eye patch and stomp over to where Kanna and Crow are with the boy. I knelt down to him, he flinched but I gently places my hand on his back and began healing him.
"It's alright. You're safe now." I said softly.
He was still trembling.
"What's your name?" I asked.
"Sliver..." he mumbled.
I heard footsteps approaching us. I look up and see it is Muu, along with Myron and Lo'lo. Myron smiled at me and Lo'lo smirked. The kids got scared and hid behind me. I stand up.
"That was quite the show you put. Are you here to enter a fight?" Muu asked with a smile.
My eyes darkened and he backed away a little.
"After what I just saw, I changed my mind. I'm taking the child with me. And that man that is knocked out, he was sneaking in drugs." I spoke with venom.
The guards came and took the man away. I then saw Caria and Alphonse from far away. They are making signals.
"I must leave. Good bye." I said.
I grab my staff and make the kids flow next to me. Muu and the others looked at me shocked and I quickly teleported us to where they said to meet.

I teleported us to a temple far deep in the mountains. A beautiful temple surrounded my flowers and statues of a girl. I recognize her, Muruko. Caria and Alphonse appear along with Muruko.
"Let us go inside. I worry someone may here us." Muruko said and we go in.

I had Kanna, Crow and Sliver head inside a space rift, where they'll be taken cared of by my djiins. As for the rest of us, we were taken to a room where there were many crystal balls floating in the air. Muruko turned to us.
"Scheherazade wants to meet all three of you. She wants to know who conquered the dungeon. Also, the King of Sindria will arrive to Reim in three months for negotiations to be finalized for Reim to be allies with Sindria. I will be there with you three just Incase things get out of hand. Kimi, as for you, you must appear in in your real appearance. And as for Alphonse, you're not escaping your brothers wrath." Muruko said.
Alphonse went to sulk in the corner. I feel sorry for him. Based on what he told me, Muu is pretty scary when pissed.
"As for the Spirit King, we are glad you were chosen Kimi. His wife, Touhka, will come and vist you soon. Now, let head back to Reim." She said.
God I'm nervous....

Dear Solomon...give me strength...

She teleported us in front of a door. We went in, and there I saw.....

OH GOD, JA'FAR!!!!

He must be a representative of Sindria! I quickly hid behind Caria and Alphonse. She must of noticed this, cause both spit eyed when they saw Ja'far. And he's not alone.....
Masrur is with him. I don't know why the king is after me but I'm to young to die! But luckily for us, Scheherazade sent them to leave and all three of us sigh in relief when they are gone.

We walks forward and all threw of us did the Attack on Titan salute. Muu sighs, cause my guess, Alphonse does it. Lady Scheherazade stood up from her seat.
"My name is Scheherazade, the Magi of Reim. Rise." She said and we put our hands down.
"Alphonse, I want you to tell me where have you been these past three months. Talk." She said.
Alphonse stepped forward and held out his sword.
"These past four months, I went to travel in hopes of becoming stronger. I ran into a dungeon. For I am now the master of the Djiin of Birthrights and Conquests, Stolas." He states seriously.
Gasp and mummers were heard all around the room. Muu looked at his brother with shocked eyes.
"During my journey, I ran into a old friends of mine. Also, I gather information regarding Al-Thamen with them." He said and nodded towards Caria and I.
Caria stepped forward and bowed.
"My name is Caria Takeruhiko, Princess of the Kina Kingdom. Alphonse is a long childhood friend of mine and we have worked together and have helped each other for many years. I am also a dungeon capturer. Djiin of Determination and Lust, Foras. We soon ran into our other friend." Caria said and nodded at me.
I stepped up and bowed.
"My name is Ren Kougyoku, former 8th Imperial Princess of the Kou Empire. I am a dungeon capturer of 7 djiins." I said.
Everyone went into shock.

"What is someone from the Kou Empire doing here?! Explain this Alphonse!" Muu said angrily.
Nobles pointing and yelling. They all then shut up with Muruko's glare.
"Former Imperial Princess? Why were you declared a traitor to Kou?" Lady Scheherazade asked.
"The Empress, has been wanting me dead for a long time. 11 years ago, the great fire took place. My cousins, and myself over heard her plans with the organization. Because of this, she ordered our assassinations. Unfortunately........" I trailed off and gritted my teeth.
"She succeed.....in killing my cousins......." I was barley able to say.
Kougyoku's memories replayed and I was on the verge of crying. Caria and Alphonse placed their hands on my shoulders.
"As for me......I survived....but was greatly injured and went into a comatose state for 6 months." I said.

Everyone looked at us shocked. Alphonse them walked up.
"You now know why Lady Scheherazade. She speaks the truth. The Kou Empire is not the enemy, nor is Magnostadt, it is the organization." Alphonse said.
Lady Scheherazade stayed silent.
"Tell me......are you the one that conquered two of my dungeons?" She said and I instantly stiffened.
"Yes.... I am the one that conquered Eligos's and the Spirit King's dungeon." And the room exploded.

Muu glares down at me murderously and Alphonse stepped in front of me, ready to fight.
"SILENCE!" Muruko yelled and everyone shut up.
Scheherazade looked back at me and then at Alphonse and Caria.
"All three of you have stolen dungeons. Care to say who?" She said.
And Alphonse began to tip toe away but me and Caria grab him by the collar of his shirt.
"Hell no! You ain't leaving us to take the blame jerk!" Both of us glared at him and he cried anime tears.
"The dungeon I took was from the Magi Yunan." Caria said.
"I stole one from Judar....." Alphonse said and all the life drained from Muu.
"All three of them." I bluntly said.
Oh how much everyone in Reim wanted to murder me.
"Sigh.......I looked at your rukh and you are not lying. You speak the truth. However.....I want to know why Sindria is after you?" She said.
"Lady Scheherazade, as much as I wish I had an answer. I do not. In all honesty, I did stay in Sindria but..I never met the King before or have committed any serious crime. I think the only crime I ever committed was sneaking into the kitchen to steal a snack cause I was hungry." I said.
"Pft! Haha! You still have that habbit?!" Caria began laughing.

SMACK!

"OOOWWWW!!" She screeched.
I smacked her on her head to shut her up. Muu and Alphonse sweat drop.
"As I was saying........" I turn back to Lady Scheherazade, "I don't know why. I feel....how do I say this.....I've forgotten something important...but no matter what I do to make it come back to me....it won't...That's all I can say....Forgive me" I said.
"It is possible that your memories have been tampered with or erased. But you speak the truth. I will not turn you in to Sindria, however, I want to stay here in Reim until the King of Sindria arrives. There, you will face him. But as a representative of Reim." She said and the rest of us choked on air.

OH FOR SOLOMON'S SAKE, WHAT THE HELL DID I GET INTO?!?!
