Compiler's Note: This side story takes place sometime during #32 of the YvtW storyarc, in the YvtW (downgraded) version of the Chroniclers Universe from a fanfic by Pellcia/Mr.Sandman. Since time flows at a much faster rate in the Chroniclers Universe, the entire adventure effectively takes place "between panels" in respect to the mainstream YvtW storyarc.

Pellica stared with unblinking eyes at young Ishtar, who stared back and was waving her arms about the air.
Pellcia: Hey! I can't talk baby ok.
Ishtar:........*Waves arms*
Pellcia: Oh......perhaps you want your bottle or something.....hold on...
Pell steps out of the room to find a baby bottle. Ishtar begins looking around the room with curious eyes......she crawled across the floor and started picking at random objects around the ground. She sat down with a small ball and began pushing it around the floor....smiling while she went.
The ball away from her and hit the far wall of the room....Ishtar reached out with her hand to grasp the ball. Suddenly....there was a sparkleing in front of her hand.....and a glowing gate opened in front of her. Ishtar......Suprised at the funny looking portal, crawed towards it.
At that moment Pellcia came in through the door carrying a bottle.
Pellcia: Hey Ishtar. Got a nice bott.......What the??
Pellcia looked up from the bottle and could only watch as little Ishtar climbed into the portal.....and the portal vansihed in a flash of light.
Pellcia:.......This isn't good.....

Pellcia: Hey......I got an idea.
She tried using her power......but she could not seem to pick her up. Then.....a thought occured to her. She pulled a small device from her belt and Flicked it on, there was a small *beep* and Pellcia's face lit up. Lucky she had played it smart and put that special tracking device on her........She clicked the device and in a flash it opened a direct gate link to the little device on Ishtar.
Pellcia Walked slowly through the gate.......
On the other side Pellcia appeared in a small clearing, there was small berry patches scattered around and the cries of strange Multi-colored birds echoed all around.
Pellcia all around but there was no sigh of her.....She turned her head to the ground and spotted the small device sitting on the ground at her feet......it must have fell off when she came through.
Pell looked all around.....but her eyes suddenly came across a few set's of footprints......human footprints. But her gaze quickly moved away from the fottprints and made eye contact with a set of glowing red ones that now emerged from the nearby trees. A huge dog like beast came out into the clearing.....followed by three others. Each looked at her and emitted a strange laughing sound. In a flash all three rushed towards her....With nothing to defend herself with she quickly D-ported out as fast as she could.
Back in the temple.....She looked around and shook her head.
Pellcia: Hmm......No.....She can't be dead......I saw footprints.....*sigh*.....Perhaps I'm goin gto need a little help on this one...

Messenger Vince(Quietly): What are you talking about? When she called you were just about out of money.
Messenger Bob(Quietly): Well.......I have more in my pocket.
Messenger Vince(Quietly): Sure you do.
While the three Messengers argued black and blue over nonsence Pell stared into space. She could just hear CBYeoman now, laughing his head off.
Pellcia: Enough!
Pell looks down and slams her fists against the desk....The room went quiet.
Pellcia: Now........I need you to inform the other messengers. I have a very important assignment for and the details are written here.
Pellcia reaches in her desk and hands out three folded pieces of paper.
Pellcia: I trust you can do this?
Messengers Bob, Joe and Vince: Yes Miss Pell!
Pellcia: Good! Now hurry up, it is very important that you get this done fast so use the Chronosphere.
All three nod there heads are run out the door. Pellcia Get's up and silently leaves the room behind them.

Messenger Bob:........Um........Mr.MunchKING is it..
The MunchKING turns around and stares down at the small messenger.
Messenger Bob: Um.....I'm here at the request of Lady Pellcia. She wishes to request your assistance and is willing to pay a great deal for your help. She is gathering together a little group to find her daughter and would like your assitance.....That's if you would be willing to give it.

She will be willing to pay a great deal for your services as well as provide anything else you would request. So.....Would you be willing to take this job?
The messenger waited for a reply.

"I haven’t the time for rescue missions right now, I’m sorry to say.
“Tell you what. Have your “Mistress” send over a documented history of her past actions, possible enemies and I’ll think about it. Seeing as this request is highly irregular, I’m going to ask for the Engineer’s nanites from Wildstorm Earth, the X-O Manowar from Valiant Earth and the personal light sabres for Yoda, Darth Vader, Count Dooku and Mace Windu.
“Accumulate these, and I’ll give it thought.”
The Messenger nodded, and begun to take his leave.
"Of course, realize that these items will be scanned thoroughly, and checked for any external tampering or modifications. I want none of these. If these somehow appear, you run the risk of annihilation - I do not appreciate being tricked."

Messenger Vince:Hmm.....Miss Pellcia said I could find her around here somewhere.......but where?
Vince looked down at his small map that Pell had given him, this was the city she was usually found in alright.
Vince walked ahead while looking at the map and as he moved around the corner he smacked head on with another man.
Vince: Ouch.....Hey! Watch were your....
Vince looks up to Zel-Yeoman........and looks quickly down at his paper.....and then back up at him.
Vince: Excuse me sir......your name wouldn't happen to be CBYeoman would it?
Zel-Yeo: No...Why?
Vince: Hmm......No reason.
Vince looked the man up and down and thought to himself. If he could get some extra help for Pell then perhaps he'd get that raise he had been asking for. Zel-Yeo picked himself off the ground and prepared to leave but Vinve jumped out in front of him.
Vince: Excuse me sir. If you would hear me out....I have a job that you might find very interesting. My boss Miss Pellcia is looking for a few good people to help her find her daughter, and she is willing to pay any price for it. Would you be interested?

Nemo turned her head and noticed Pellcia standing nearby.
Pellcia: *Looking from side to side* Hmm....Where's that little boy toy of yours. Ah well.......I can find him later.
She jumps through the air and lands besides Nemo.
Pellcia: So Nemo......I see everything is going nicely around here........
Pellcia tries to smile but she can't. At this distance Nemo can see redness down Pell's cheeks, such that she had been crying recently.
Pellcia: Listen Nemo...........I'm............Really sorry about the whole monster thing........I didn't mean for it to turn out like that. In fact, I didn't plan on any of this......*A tear falls down her cheek*.....I'm really sorry....Really......I just.............wanted you to respect me again.........And I only made thing worse.

Seth runs down the small hill and takes a moment to stare at the place. Several large tents are set up, rides and food stands are spread out all over the place and crowds of people wander around in giant swarms.
Munchy followed behind Seth....mostly to make sure he didn't get into any trouble. Seth ran up a nearby food stand and ordered something called....Trubbles.
Two men that were passing by suddenly caught seth's attention.
Man: Hmm.....did you hear who's back again this year..
Other Man: No...who?
Man: Mad Maska......she has another of her crasy inventions put up near the main tent.
Other Man: And they let her do it?! Last time she showed off an invention it burned the main tent to the ground....as well as blowing up Normans candy shed.....
Man: Ha.....anybody who actually values there life better stay away from there..
Other Man: You got that right.....Hahaha
The two men walk off.
Seth: Hmm....How sad. This poor Maska person isn't going to get any people to see her invention. It can't be that bad..*Turns to Munchy* Hey Munch....how about we go over there and take a look....Please..

There was the sudden sound of huge footsteps outside the small house. The sound alerted Nemo and Lina who were still in the house.
Outside.....from the trees came several Giant Mecha, each with a symbol of a moon and sword painted on. Eack stood about 15 meters tall and had cannons at various parts of there bodys. Each Mecha walked on 8 legs like a spider and from the waist up had a humaniod appearance.
From the lead Mecha, Which had a gold symbol, came a sudden booming voice.
Lead Mecha: Alright, we know there are people in there.....come out now and give yourselfs up or we shall destory you.

All the mechs arm there forward blasters and begin fireing on the two.
At that very same moment the door to the house swings open and Pellcia runs out with an angry look on her face.
Pellcia: ALRIGHT!! Can't you keep it down out here! I'm trying....
Pellcia looks up at the Mech.
Mech pilot: You there! Give up or be destoryed!
Pellcia:....Hmm....Now that isn't very nice is it.
Mech Pilot: Huh...
Pellcia: You shouldn't be out attacking poor defenceless girls like me....
Mech Pilot: Er...Well....
Pellcia: Because you might get Hurt.....

Pellcia: Hehehe...this is going to be fun.
The Mech turns towards the others and fires, blowing the head right off the nearest mech.

Seth and MunchKING made there way across the park towards the main tent, stopping for brief periods to buy candy. Finally thry arrived at small area besides the tent that had very little people around. There were several odd mechines littered all over the place.
Seth: Hmm.....where do you think that Maska per..
*Bang*
A sudden sound came from a large humaniod robot that was standing nearby. Seth slowly walked towards it and checked all around untill a small door caught his eye.
Seth: Hey...there's a little door here.
*Bang*
The sound was even louder now. Seth bent over while the MunchKING walked behind Seth the get a good view...Seth looked over the door a little and noticed a small lock was stuck in place. He slowly undid the lock....
*Bang*
The door flew open and a human flew out, hit Seth who flew back and hit Munchy as all three fell into a pile a spare parts.
After a few seconds a green haired girl poked her head up from the pieces of metal and looked around...
Maska: Oh....thank goodness! I though I was going to be stuck in there all day!
She jumped out of the metal and grabed the two, pulling them out as well.
Maska: Hmm......Well, Thank you very much for helping me.

Zira then stepped froward through the door.
On the other side was a vast void, glowing orbs moved this way and that giving light to the small platfrom they were standing on.
Zira: Great Goddess of Chaos! I have the child here!
The orbs of light stopped, and gathered on the platfrom in the shape of a small girl.
Jenella: At last, You have brought me a worthy offering. I sence divine power flowing from this one.
