A young lady was riding her white horse through the green Ireland forrest. The lady kept watching around her as if she knew her life was in danger. When she reached
Kells, she heard an unusual voice hidden behind large leafy bushes. She quickly grabbed her bow that was strapped on her back. The she pulled out an arrow that was strapped on the horse's saddle. She squinted her gray-blue eyes as she shot the arrow. It was a perfect shot, because she heard the voice scream. To make sure she captured the mysterious beast, she shot another arrow. The suspicious lady slipped off her horse and led him around the other side of the bushes. She found a young man nailed to a large tree with arrows. The young man was Angus. The young lady growled, "Who are you?"
Angus yelled, "I am a Mystic Knight."
The lady asked rudely, "Well, Mystic Knight, what are you doing here?"
Dark haired Angus couldn't help himself from smiling, "What?"
The angry lady repeated herself, "What are you doing here?"
Finally, Angus answered, "What does it look like? You got me stuck to this tree."
After he noticed the young maiden getting ready to aim another arrow at him, he quickly
replied, "I live here." Then Angus asked, "Who are you, by the way?"
As the young woman gave him a dirty look, she said, "How can I trust you of giving my name?"
The Mystic Knight of Earth asked, "You are not from around here, are you?"
The dark haired lady questioned, "Who wants to know? Are you a Temera spy?"
Angus waved his hands, "Me? No... Look, I am part of the Mystic Knights, and
we fight Temera to keep them away from Kells. I can see you are an enemy of Queen Maeve. If you wish, I can take you to the castle of Kells, and you can meet all of Maeve's enemies."
After thinking for a few seconds, the maiden responded, "Lead me to the castle, I
would like to meet these people from Kells."
The young Mystic Knight asked, "Before we go, can you unnail me to this tree?"
The lady pulled out all the arrows out of the tree to release Angus. Then Angus asked as
the lady jumped back on her horse, "Can I get on your horse with you?" With an ugly stern frown from the young woman, Angus knew the answer, "Okay...okay."
Minutes later, Angus and the young lady entered inside the Kells castle. They interupted a small meeting between Rohan, Princess Deidre, Ivar, Garrett and King Conchobar in the throne room. The meeting stopped immediately, then Rohan looked at Angus with anger, "Were have you been?"
Angus shouted with guilt as he shifted his brown eyes over to the strange lady, "I was nailed down with a few things in the forest." Then he announced, "I met this girl over there. She asked to see you, my king. Her name is...her name is..." He looked at the young maiden with confusion, "What is your name?"
The lady walked closer to King Conchobar, "People often call me Lady."
Angus smiled foolishly, "Lady? That's it?"
Without looking back at Angus, she growled through her teeth, "Yes, that is it!"
King Conchobar was still sitting on his throne as he asked Lady, "So, what brings you to Kells?"
Lady mentioned, "Many weeks ago, Queen Maeve from Temera and her men came to my kingdom and destroyed everything. They killed most of my people -including my parents. Half of the people that have survived, have been taken away to become Queen Maeve's slaves. The other half are still in my kingdom cleaning up the terrible mess the Temerans made. I am here to save my people and my brother. I am on a quest to find Queen Maeve's castle."
King Conchobar gave Lady a warm smile, "These are the Mystic Knights, and they are also here to defeat Queen Maeve. You may stay here and help the Mystic Knights."
As the young five male warriors were studying Lady, Deidre was getting very jealous, so she stepped in between the young men, and announced, "Hello Lady, I am Princess Deidre... Princess of Kells, I am also a warrior - Mystic Knight of Air."
Ivar smiled, "Yes, and I am Prince Ivar - Mystic Knight of Water."
Garrett patted Lady's shoulder, "I am Prince Garrett, my lady. I am Mystic Knight of Forest. We will help you get victory for your land."
Rohan stepped in, "Rohan... Mystic Knight of Fire."
King Conchobar added, "Rohan is also Dragenta."
Lady smiled at Rohan, Garrett, and Ivar until Angus glided closer to her. Before anything came out of his mouth, she roared at him, "I know who you are!" Then Angus quietly stepped back and Lady turned to King Conchobar, "I would like to go into battle right away."
The King replied, "It will be soon, because Maeve always has something new to fight us with... I assure you, it will be anytime soon. In the meantime, you are free to do whatever you would like."
Nervous Lady bowed, "Thank you, king. I would like to find a place to stay for the night.... If you will excuse me."
King Conchobar said without hesitating, "Nonsense! You will stay in the castle until you get your brother back - save and sound." Princess Deidre quickly gave her father a disturbed look, then Lady thanked Conchobar. The king continued talking to Lady, "I'll have one of my servants show you to your room."
As the servant led Lady out of the throne room, Angus followed. Deidre rushed up to the king, "Father, I can't believe you are letting her stay here..."
The king gave Deidre a half warm smile, "There's nothing to fear of, daughter."
Garrett agreed, "He's right, Deidre." Princess Deidre frowned until a loud noise of arguing was carrying on outside of the throne room. Angus returned back inside upset and yelled, "I don't like you either. I wish I hadn't met you. What do you think of that? Ha?"
Ivar asked, "Was that Lady you were arguing with?"
Angus nodded his head, "Yeah."
Rohan chuckled, "You like her, don't you, Angus."
As Angus pounded his fist on the table he growled through his teeth, "Yes, I do."
Everyone laughed, except Deidre and Angus. Deidre questioned, "Don't any of you care what I think? I don't like this girl."
Rohan, Ivar, Garrett, and King Conchobar didn't answer, instead they kept on laughing. Angus couldn't tell who they were laughing at, so he whined, "It's not funny, people."
Princess Deidre continued to frown, and Aideen, the fairy, flew over to her and asked, "Jealous, princess?"
Deidre looked at Aideen, "Jealous? No. I don't like Lady one bit."
Aideen smiled, "By the looks of it, it looks like you are jealous."
As Princess Deidre stormed off, she ordered, "Not now, Aideen."
In the dark castle ofTemra, Torq rushed over to Queen Maeve, "My queen, I just found news that a girl has entered into Kells. She is looking for her brother - one of the men we took in for one of our soldiers."
Queen Maeve jumped off her throne and screamed, "No! That can't happen. That means that Kells will have another person for battle."
Torq questioned, "What do you wish, queen?"
Maeve answered as she was thinking, "We'll go to Kells and meet this girl."
The assistant of Maeve bowed, "As you wish, queen."
Queen Maeve ordered as she nervously sat back down on her throne, "Leave. I want to think."
Torq bowed again and left the throne room.
The next day, one of the soldiers from Kells rushed into the throne room and gave King Conchobar a scroll, "King, this arrived in Kells. I think it's from Temra."
The king thanked the soldier and Rohan grabbed the scroll. He unrolled it, and read it, then announced to the rest of the rest of the Mystic Knights, "It's Queen Maeve, we are to meet her in the forest. C'mon."
Ivar stopped Garrett and Deidre, "Where's Angus and Lady?"
Deidre carelessly answered, "Angus followed Lady into the forest."
Before Ivar said anything, Garrett stated, "Don't worry, Ivar, we'll find them."
Princess Deidre was getting worried about Rohan being alone outside, so she grabbed both Ivar and Garrett wrists. Then the three of them ran as fast as they could to join Rohan.
Angus and Lady were standing in the middle of the stream tied up against each other, and they were trying not to fall into the water. Angus tried his hardest to get himself untied, and Lady was working on getting away from Angus. She cried, "I can't believe you made a bet with a fairy and lost. Now we are tied to each other and can't get ourselves out of here!"
The goofy Mystic Knight mentioned, "I have been dreaming of this day."
Lady growled, "Angus!"
Angus yelled, "What? I was joking. I'm trying me best to get us out of here."
The impatient young woman mentioned, "Well, you are not doing a good job."
Suddenly, Angus and Lady heard Rohan's voice calling out for them. Angus quickly announced, "That's Rohan, we must go."
As Angus bent forward to rush through the stream, Lady's legs flew up into the air, and ended up on Angus' back. Lady whined, "Oh Angus!"
Rohan and the rest of the Mystic Knights met Angus and Lady along the side of the stream. The Dragenta laughed, "What bad luck did you get yourself into this time, Angus?"
Angus ordered, "Stop laughing, will ya, and get us untied."
Garrett offered to help and grabbed his sword and cut the rope. Lady thanked him. Rohan handed Angus and Lady's weapons to them that were laying beside the stream. Rohan announced, "We must be ready when the Temrans come. Everyone stood in their places that were planned. Then Rohan smiled, "You: Angus and Lady will be together over there."
Lady gave Rohan a dirty look, then grabbed Angus' hand and dragged them to their spot. Finally, Ivar heard the Temerans getting close to them, so he exclaimed, "They are coming!" The Mystic Knights were getting their weapons ready and Lady was getting anxious to see her brother again. Ivar suggested, "We must call for our armor!"
As the five Mystic Knights called for their armor one by one, and magically changed into them, Lady couldn't believe her eyes. She whispered out loud with amazement, "Wow!"
Angus noticed her expression, so he bragged as he pointed at his silver armor suit, "Very impressive, don't you think?" Then he sniffed loudly and continued, "Yep... This is one impressive armor suit I got on. This thing has powers, you know." Lady tried not to laugh or smile, so she turned her head away from him, but Angus already caught her cracking that smile, so he said with excitement, "Aw, you do smile. Well, that is nice to know."
To break the friendly moment, an ugly voice from Queen Maeve said in front of Lady, "You must be the young lady that has joined the Mystic Knights. I hope after this day, you will join my kingdom. I'm sure your people that are now working for me will be pleased to see you again."
Lady growled through her teeth, "NEVER!" Torq was standing next to Maeve giggling with an evil tone, then Lady continued, "Where is my brother? What have you done to him?"
Queen Maeve answered, "That all depends on you; if you leave Kells forever, you will be with your brother forever."
Before Lady gave her answer, Angus stepped forward, "You can forget it, Maeve. She's not going to be your servant."
Rohan walked towards Queen Maeve, "Be gone. You don't belong here."
Torq growled, "You'd be advised to be quiet, Rohan." Then he yelled at the Temera soldiers, "ATTACK!" As the soldiers were charging after the Mystic Knights and Lady, Rohan swayed his sword in front of him and a line of fire blazed between the Knights and the Temerans. The soldiers feared for their lives after seeing a line of fire barely touching their toes, so they ran back to the kingdom of Temera, Torq screamed, "Where are you going, you Temeran swines?"
Lady watched the soldiers run and noticed her brother, she charged after him and yelling out his name. Rohan ran after her and grabbed her by the waist. He pulled her away, but she was fighting him, "Let me go! That's my brother!"
Rohan shouted, "No! You can't go to Temera.... Not yet. This is a bad time."
Angus added, "Don't you worry, we'll get your brother back."
The dragenta looked at Queen Maeve, "It looks like you didn't win again."
Maeve frowned, "It's not over yet, Mystic Knights."
After Maeve and Torq disappeared into thin air, "Princess Deidre noticed two lonely horses with saddles on them, "It looks like Temerans left some horses for us."
Lady's eyes widened and cried, "That horse on the left is my brother's..."
Garrett suggested, "Lady and I will ride them back to the castle of Kells."
Rohan nodded, "The rest of us will meet you later in the castle."
Then Angus, Princess Deidre, and Ivar followed Rohan back to the castle. Garrett helped Lady up on her brother's horse, and he got on the other horse. The they rode off through the green forest. It was a great chance for them to get to know one another. They couldn't keep their gray-blue eyes off of each other. Minutes later, Lady realized what she was doing, so she turned her head away as if she was being shy, and asked, "So, how do you know how to ride horses so well?"
Garrett smiled, "In my kingdom, everyone knows how to ride horses. We would practice fighting on them. I, Prince Garrett, was the best."
After Lady gave out a smile, she announced, "Almost my whole life, I have tamed horses." She patted her brother's horse's shoulder blade, and continued, "I love these creatures."
The Mystic Knight of Forest admitted, "I, too, have a love for horses."
Lady and Garrett looked into each other's eyes again and minutes later, the horses stopped right in front of the castle's gate. They didn't realize the horses stopped. They were already lost into each other's soul. Garrett's horse turned his head and started nibbling on the Mystic Knight of Forest's ankle. After Garret jumped, he realized where he was and what he was doing, so he acclaimed with embarrassment, "We have arrived to the castle, my lady."
As Lady looked around her and realized where she was, her face turned bright red, and didn't dare reply back. Garrett got off his horse and helped Lady get off her brother's horse. Then she finally said, "Thank you. I'm glad to know that some young men in Kells are not like Angus."
Garrett responded, "Nobody is like Angus."
Both Garrett and Lady giggled as they walked into the castle. They entered inside the throne room, and King Conchobar mentioned to Lady, "I am sorry you did not get your brother back. If you wish, you may stay here in the castle longer."
Determined Lady stated, "Thank you, my new king. I am not going to give up fighting to get my brother back. I `will' get him back safe and sound. You can count on that."
