Chapter 3: Behold, The Daughters of Valkyries! 

Boy, Aynia was having a lot of group fights so it was pretty hard for her as she was struggling each time and it drove her pretty much in a good direction for the Jawbreaker Battle Royale! It was fun as Aynia got to face a bunch of girls who were known as 'Daughters of Valkyries'. The other mean girls that Aynia dealt with were now banished because of the horrible things they done and showed no remorse for what they did. During the battle, Aynia got to looks at their memories in her head: Here she was, asleep again. 10 year old Elyssa Jacob dreamt for so long, even around morning. That's when she woke up with a start. Elyssa saw someone peering down at her, it was her 9 year old sisterr Medina. "Medina, what are you doing peering at me like that?" Elyssa asked in a groggy tone. "You were supposed to be ready, I was waiting for you to wake up. We were supposed to go to the Esaus' house, remember? It's Perissa's birthday." Medina explained. Elyssa groaned in disbelief, she couldn't believe it. She'd forgotten about that, it was Perissa's tenth birthday today! She couldn't believe she forgotten about it. "Sorry, tell Mom to wait for me. I'll be right down." said Elyssa. Medina nodded as she headed out. A few seconds later, Elyssa was dressed as she was walking with her mother and sister to the Esaus' house. It wasn't that far, it was just a short walking distance. They went to see their cousin, Perissa, as well as their aunt Diviana Esau. Elyssa and Medina's mother was Aphordita Jacobs as she was so beautiful however Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa were much prettier as they were. Aphrodita has curly, strawberry blonde hair and tall while her lips are full and red while her sister Diviana has billows of gently waving, caramel-colored hair. But the three girls are much more stunning and radiant: Elyssa has a very pale complexion that has pinkish undertones, she has long, wavy, dark brown hair, unique chocolate brown eyes and a heart-shaped face with a wide forehead. Her eyes are large and widely spaced. Her nose is thin and her cheekbones are prominent. Her lips are a bit too full for her slim jawline. Her eyebrows are darker than her hair and are straighter. Medina has long, lustrous mahogany hair and light skin as she is the most gorgeous young girl that anyone has ever seen. And Perissa has medium wavy blond hair, light skin, pink rosy cheeks, shell-pink lips, pale lavender eyelids, and pink palms. During the celebration; the family was under attack by a group of men, one of them attacked Elyssa and then there was a struggle between them, Elyssa tried to get the savage man off her however Aphrodita and Diviana protected them however they are tortured while stripped from their clothes and were killed before the three girls. 

Elyssa screamed, then she fainted from seeing the sight of blood. Medina and Perissa were so scared as they couldn't believe what they just witnessed, they were relieved Elyssa was OK but that was short lived when they found out that their mothers are dead by those perverted, violent men. These men were nothing ordinary, these were the male only group known as Neo Gargarean of Mundi Hominum. They were the enemy to Amazon and were the barbarians. Elyssa learns something shocking on a last will from Aphrodita: "My dearest Elyssa, I have to confess....You are not my daughter. I know this is hard to believe but I wanted to tell you on your twelfth birthday. You are the daughter of a Valkyrie name Chrysogone Valraven, Medina is your sister and Perissa is not your cousin--She is your sister too. Please forgive me, I hope you are not mad at me but it was the only way, I had to hide you away from the terror of Neo Gargarean. They are evil, pigs, loathsome to Earth Mother that respect by the evil Sky Father. Go to Neo Amazon, train yourself m'lady as you're the Valkyrie princess to save us all from the darkness of Mundi Hominum." After reading the shocking letter; Elyssa research on the feminine military squad, Neo Amazon, was located in Terra Feminarum. Medina and Perissa learn about Elyssa's intentions so they talk to her. "Elyssa, are you sure about this?" Medina asked. "I'm dead serious, I'm going to see if I can be part of this squad." Elyssa said enthusiastically. "Then, I'm coming along." Medina replied. "No. Way." Heyoka said. "I am!" Medina insisted. "I'm sick of being bullied all the time! It's high time I stand up and fight--Even if I'm pushed to the limit." "Me too." said Perissa. Elyssaa glared at her, "Nobody is following me anywhere! This is my burden to bare, not you!" "So?" Perissa said, "We're not coming with you by being concern for you, we got our own struggles to bare. I'm going to find out who would do such a thing to Aphrodita and Diviana." Elyssa looks at her and then she said, "OK. It's settled then, we're doing it together." Medina and Perissa  nodded at this. They were going to find their liberation from the male group of Neo Gargarean. But it looked like their lives was also going to change for good. 

The years later show 17 year old Perissa screams and wakes up to the sunrise, relieved that it was all a dream. And she was in the the bedlam house. Poor Perissa. She's lost her grip on sanity. She's stark raving mad. This was no hospital paradise, no sleek modern psychiatric facility with freshly-washed sheets. No nice nurses or friendly doctors. There was nothing she could do. Perissa couldn't take it anymore with the shock therapy, the bloodletting, and other horrible experiments. She fights back, and the nurses tried to restrained her however something inside Perissa was burst out from her. Once the bottle of her superpowers is opened, it can't be sealed again. And water splashed from her hands. Later; Perissa is sitting on the ground, she slowly begins to stand up and makes her way through the deserted hallway. Perissa then sees a nurse in a room who's stricken with fear and closes the door, realizing that she is the cause of the damage. As Perissa makes her way outside the school building, a police car arrives and the nurse rushes outside to tell the policeman about Perissa, who then quickly rides a bicycle home to pack her things. While at home, she sees a news report about the incident, causing her to quickly gather her things to flee. Several policemen then appear outside the front door of Perissa's house, while she tries to escape through the back door. Perissa realizes that the door is locked so she uses her powers to grab the keys from the kitchen bench. The policemen then enter the house to find that Perissa is gone. Perissa running away from a team  who has been hunting her in the woods. Perissa is caught by one of the men who pushes her to the ground. Perissa uses her supernatural powers once again to push the men away in a burst of power. After that, she faked her death and escapes to the life of the summery life. However, she can hear a voice in her head saying to her: "My sweet girl, I only hope ou find your way back to me love." Meanwhile on the road where the beaches are, where 18 year old Medina haven't seen it in a long time. They arrived at the two story house that looked ancient and broken as if untouched by time. Medina gird herself as she headed up the stairs of the porch and entered inside the house. 

There was a woman who looked middle aged with grayish black hair and wore a robe as she embraced her, there is also overweight, grayish brown haired woman who had age spots on her and also a liver spot seem on her. A woman who look like she's in her late thirties and early forties appeared with dark brown hair and was a younger version of her grandmother. Getting away from the scene of her annoying aunt and her jaded grandmother as well as her weary, gross third cousin--twice removed; her grandma and aunt were there while Cassandra was trying not to talk to them however there was a bickering discussion among the two. At dinner, tension grew and grew. A drained, pale, and seemingly sick grandmother sat at the table as Medina appeared but her grandmother got so angry that he dropped his plate deliberately on the floor. Argument begins to attract the family relatives as Medina activates her powers and scares the others when they saw blood from her hands. Medina was so shocked that she left and she found herself on the deserted road but she could hear a voice in her head, "My sweet girl...Come home, I wish to see you....my dear." In the meantime; Elyssa is in her early 20's as she lives alone and at a job she hates. Her boss annoys her and they are driving her crazy. Elyssa struggles with the fact that he is a high school graduate who is not going to college. Two weeks later; Elyssa move away to the cold winter wonderland. While on the 19 hours and two minute drive; Elyssa is bored of the long journey and she soon falls asleep. She wakes up and finds out that she has been fired after she was drunk and drived away moving without telling anybody. Elyssa and her boss used to be friends however her boss was a delusional, mean-spirited, and selfish so called expert on helping people that failed to work. Elyssa cuts off communication from her former job, she goes to sleep but she woke up to hear a voice in her head, "My little princess...I will wait for your return soon."  Elyssa decides to go and see her sisters Perissa and Medina. However, they've begin to experiencing telepathic visions of a woman's voice: "My sweet girls, my little princess...Please give me a moment of your time. I know it seems like I'm not offering you much guidance but you're going have to do a lot of this on your own. I asked that you trust me and I will get you through this alive. Follow your instincts and I will see you soon...I'll be waiting for you." Then, one day; Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa saw a sun ray coming down and there was a blinding light as they vanished. 

Just then, the trio found themselves faced to face with a commander officer of a woman. Elyssa smiled a little weakly, "Am I dead?" She asked. The female commander chuckled a little, "Not really." She said. The woman introduces herself as Commander Chrysogonee Valraven, as she welcomed her daughters home to Terra Feminarum. Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa were amazed, thrilled to see that they finally meet their mother. The three of them are given a tour by Una. Una showed them the bunks of their cabin, they were shown the training area & the mess hall. Elyssa looked around however she accidentally bumps into someone. "Hey! Watch it!" snapped the person, she looked leaned and tall but she was glaring at Elyssa, which surpried her. Once that girl was gone; Elyssa asked, "Who's that?" Una looked and replied back, "Ah, that is Mirabella. She tends to speak his mind, which gets her in trouble. Don't mind her." And they moved on but Elyssa looked back, she rolled his eyes and sighed. She was already making enemies, just a great way to start her first day here. Nice. However; Elyssa and her sisters are introduced to the other ladies: Britomart, Cymodoce, Amoretta, Belphoebe, Palladine, Florimell, Cambina, Hellenore, Canacee, Pastorella, and Serena. The next day; Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa were at the training grounds of the military where they learn how to spar with one another. They learned how to attack and archery. How to use weapons in combat. Drill exercises were difficulties for Elyssa, who would fall behind from the others as Mirabella begins to taunt her, "Try working harder, newbie. Not so easy isn't it?" She really looked arrogant, white hot anger filled Elyssa's chest as she used that to get stronger so she kept pushing. And pushing. Soon, Elyssa improved better in the drill exercises while Mirabella struggle. Elyssa laughed at the irony, she got better and stronger. While things were looking up; Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa discovered their powers: Elyssa has many powers such as psychokinesis, enhanced speed, enhanced agility, enhanced speed, telepathy, accelerate healing, and to absorb powers as well as memories from others through physical touch. Medina has the ability to control blood, to maneuver it into any shape or form. And Perissa can control the element of water--either freeze it, boil it, or manipulate its form in many ways. 

However; they are called in by Una, who has a special mission. When they got there; Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa are seated in a meeting room. "What the hell is taking her?" Medina groaned. "Patience, Medina. Una moves in mysterious ways." Elyssaa assured her. "I wonder what Una has for us this time." Perissa said. "We'll find out soon enough, girls." Elyssa replied. While waiting; they heard a female grunting and incoherent complaining as they got louder. Then, Una came in with a large box and placed it down. "Phew! Talk about a lot of designed costumes to deliver can give someone quite a work out." She said with a sigh and huffing. Una smiled at the girls, "Good Morning, ladies! Sorry for making you wait but I want to show you something..." She said, "Your mission is quite interested. This world is known as a land you never dreamed of. It is my pleasure to introduce you to this special mission.....Introducing--Operation: Playact Superhero!" Elyssa and the sisters stare at her with weird looks. "What did she say?" asked Perissa, "What was that last part?" inquired Medina. "What is Operation Superhero Playact?" questioned Elyssa, "And what is the meaning of it?" "It's an undercover operative assignment!" explained Una, "You are to observe this city known as Caesar City for it has a good setting." Una gave the girls their so-called superheroine costumes; Elyssa's outfit was of skin-tight suit that has a rose design on the abdomen with long matching gloves and heels. Medina has a red catsuit with red roses that gave the illusion of being bloodied. And Perissa's outfit has sea blue and ice blue clothing, the style was a dress. The girls were also given superheroine personas: Elyssa is Valkyrie, Perissa is Aloja, and Medina is Agrona. This was going to be the most epic, weirdest mission but Operation Superhero Playact was commencing the mysterious land. All suit up in ther costumes of their undercover superheroine alter egos; Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa were ready to go! "OK, getting ready for teleportation for agents..." Una said, pressing buttons and pulling switches to activate the portal. She continued to talk while typing, "Operation Superhero Playact is commencing.... Destination locating..... transportation begins in 10...9...8...7...6...5, 4, 3, 2, 1!!!" "Let's goooooooooo!" Elyssa hollered. And the agents jumped into the portals. Una watched them disappear, "Good luck agents." She said in a soft tone. 

Elyssa smiled triumphantly, "All right ladies, let's go! It's hero time!" She said. "You mean 'Heroine Time', right?" Perissa corrected. "Whatever!" Elyssa laughed but got serious and said, "Assemble and GO!!!" And off they went! There were  Neo Gargarean terrorizing the folks in the downtown city, Elyssa and the other girls rescued civilians from the sexist and violent men! But things got crazier when debris was falling from buildings and crumbling from the weight of mass monsters. They were about to fall on Elyssa, who didn't noticed at the time, until the debris turned to ashes! Now that caught her attention and what she saw surprised her! A figure looking wolf costume. Elyssa couldn't take her eyes as the guy looked at her, "Are you all right?" The guy asked. Elyssa nodded, "Yes, thanks. You did pretty cool." She said. "Heh! No problem. But you look like you're new here so tell me--Who's your sponser?" The fire guy asked. That confused Elyssa for a moment, "Um, what are you talking about?" asked Elyssa. "You don't have a sponsor?" The wolf guy asked, looking at her in disbelief. Elyssa looked morified, if that guy could see which he couldn't! "Um, I don't think I--Am I supposed to?" Elyssa asked. "Well...Who are you toots?" The wolf guy inquired. "My name's Valkyrie and you are?" asked Elyssa. "They call me....Beowulf!" He said, "This is how I roll. I mean, Savior Station comes up with this stuff..." Elyssa had a weird look on her face, "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! What are you talking about? What is Savior Station?" She asked. Beowulf glance at her, "You don't know? Uh, Savior Station is a TV show where crime fighting is mainstream entertainment broadcasting." He explained. Elyssa couldn't believe it. "You're trying to tell me WE'RE ON TV!!!!" She cried. Beowulf weakly smirked, "Guess you didn't know, did you?" He teased. Elyssa let out an angry screech, she tackles Firestarter to the ground as his flames don't bother her all that much. 

"You mean to tell me we're on TV and I didn't know about it?!" She demanded. Beowulf look at her solemnly, "Welcome to Caesar City, Valkyrie. The whole world is watching us heroes." He answered. Elyssa lets go of him, "Terrific. Well, let's get to work." She replied darkly, and the two head off! Meanwhile; Medina was overwhelmed by the attack of Neo Gargarean soldiers and managed to fight them off with her powers. Another try to sneak attack on her until someone hold him back. She heard from someone behind her. She turned and saw Vincent applauding, "Huh? Have you been there the whole time?" asked Eulalie. "Well, well. You're not so weak after all." said the hero. "No way. Who the hell are you?" The hero turn to her and said, "The guy that saved your life." "Um, thank you." Medina replied, it sounded confused like a question. She seemed interested in this guy, "So...One superhero to another, who are you?" She inquired. "Valentine. Just Valentine." said the guy. "Valentine..." Medina said, that name gave her chills, "Wait! Do you have a secret identity?" She asked. "Don't have one." said Valentine. "Oh crap! Why am I getting all shivering about?" She thought. "By any chance, are you aware of the circumstances?" Valentine asked. "You got some sponser?" Medina was perplexed, "Um, what now?" She inquired. Later, she was alone after the disbelief of finding out that she was on TV live of Savior Station! Valentine told her the same thing that Beowulf had told Valkyrie/Elyssa. It was beyond her belief. However, Medina is helped out by Valentine however she is concern about who he really is. In the meantime; Elyssa learns the whole story about how this whole thing wasn't a fake. However Beowulf had to ask, "What's your deal here, Valkyrie?" "Just helping out but don't want tobe noticed while being BROADCAST LIVE!!!" Elyssa exclaimed. 

Beowulf held up his hands in defense, "Sorry, I wasn't aware." He affirmed, "What kind of superhero are you?" Elyssa smiled and said, "One of a kind!" Beowulf looked at her with amazement, "You surprise me." He said. Elyssa gave him a look, "Anymore surprises I should know?" She queried. Suddenly, Beowulf's communicator beeped and he gasped. "'Snap!" He cursed. "What?" asked Elyssa. "Gotta go." Beowulf said, "Catcha later!" He flew away as Elyssa watched him go. Later, in a skirt with the hem falls just above her knees and a blouse with leather boots; Elyssa found the building of where she meets Savior Station's producer Julocke Bittan, and her crew of the station--Curtis Sirius and Cuward Harley. Julocke gave her a package and ask her to deliever it to a guy name Orson Sansnom, which Elyssa obediantly complies.. As she looked around, Elyssa looked around however she didn't see where she was going and bumped into somebody else. "Oh, I'm sorry--!" Elyssa apologized. She looked to see a tan skinned man there that had black hair, he wore a long-sleeved woven shirt with a faded red plaid pattern and two front pockets, black jeans with a low rise and a slim, straight fit, and boots with black suede upper, capped suede toe, 7 eyelet lace-up front and a side zip on the inside panel. He seemed pretty friendly when he said, "It's OK. You all right?" Elyssa smiled, "Uh huh, I'm fine." She said. The guy noticed Elyssa has something in her arms, "You delivering something?" He inquired. "Um, yeah. It's for someone by the name of Orson Sansnom." said Elyssa. The guy looked at her before smirking, "Oh, I believe you've found him." He affirmed. Elyssa look at him in shock, "Huh?" She asked. Orson and Elyssa enter his house but the place had bottles, papers, and stuff everywhere. "Sorry, it's a mess here." Goram said with a shameful look. Elyssa shrugged, "It's all right." She claimed.  Just then, the phone rang. Orson jumped up, "Hang on, I'll be back." He said and ran off to answer the phone in the next room. Elyssa looked around and whispered to herself, "Mary Poppins, do your magic." Immediately; the bottles and other stuff was immediately clean up the rest as the pigsty was turned into a tidied up house. Smiling; Elyssa said to herself softly, "Work that, Beowulf." 
Orson return to the living room, "Hey, sorry 'bout that...Whoa! You cleaned the place." He said with surprise. Elyssa turned to him and beamed, "I sure did. Glad I could help." She said. "Thanks, any chance you can clean my place while I'm away?" Orson replied. "Sure." Elyssa answered, nodding. "And I'll pay." Orson added. Elyssa look offended, "No, I don't want--" She said. Orson insisted, "Please, I insist. I mean, you clean faster than a janitor." He remarked. Elyssa looked at his face and smiled, "All right, why not. Thank you." She answered. As she telekinetically clean Orson Sansnom's place; she stop to take a break and dig up her research on Beowulf but she learns Beowulf and Orson Sansnom were the same person. "Figured you out, Beowulf. Let's see if you can figure me out." Elyssa said to herself. She did her homework on the other heroes: Orvar is Orson's best friend name Bruin Ursus. Cleopatra's secret identity is Hermeline Tokala. Cleopatra's partner and best friend, Bradamante, however her real name is Belen Ramm. The ever once so popular Strong Styrbjörn is really Leonard Nobel, Starkad is the shy and insecure but quirky yet good hearted Tybalt Katz. And effeminate Palnatoke is the intersexual Grimbeert Badger. Now things were about to get interesting for Elyssa and the others with these heroes. In the meantime; a loud, hot blooded, and ungrateful bastard name Korbes who loved to hear himself talk. "Who is Valentine? He's a demon, that's what he is!" barked Korbes. he was a loud, hot blooded, and ungrateful bastard, he loved to hear himself talk"A seducer, a menace!" He continued to rambled. "Medina! We have to find out about Valentine and his intentions of being a threat to us all!" Medina sighed as she gathered her stuff, "All right, yes sir." She said. "Good, get out of here!!!" barked Korbes. Later, Elyssa and Orson were attending some sort of the arrival of Valentine Naimon. Orson offered, which left Elyssa so curious as she agreed to come along. "So, I get to meet the Valentine Naimon huh." Elyssa said. Orson looked annoyed but he smiled, "Yeah but don't get too excited." He warned. Elyssa look confused, "Why would I?" She asked. Just then, a familiar voice called out: "Hey, what's going on?" Elyssa turned around eagerly, "Medina! Where have you been?" She asked. Medina shrugged, "Oh, I've been around and about." She claimed. 

Elyssa nodded and made the introduction: "Orson, this is my sister Medina. Medina? This is Orson Sansnom." Orson held out his hand, "What's up?" He said. Medina took his hand and shook it, "Hi." She said. Then; Medina learned what was going on: "Oh, wait a minute. Some of those highbrow upstarts are coming here? Great, those overindulgent lavishly and crummy people whoare nothing but ungracious, haughty, foolhardy bastards that are--" She ranted. But when she saw who it was, she stopped and ended it by saying, "--So hot!" He seems to be under or over age 20,  a slender, graceful figure, lacks facial hair, dark flaxen/light blonde hair and emerald green eyes. Elyssa wasn't lovestruck however she remarked, "Wow, thanks for the warning." Orson looked over at her, "Not crazy 'bout him huh?" He asked. Elyssa shook her head, "Nah, but I have to give him a compliment--He's so handsome!" She answerd. Orson breathed a sigh of relief. Medina squinted her eyes at Valentine and then her eyes widened in amazement, "Wait, it's him!" She thought. Then she begins to recite the poem of Leda and the Swan in her head: "A sudden blow: the great wings beating still above the staggering girl, her loins caressed by the dark webs, her nape caught in his bill, he holds her helpless bosom upon his chest. How can those terrified vague fingers push the feathered glory from her loosening loins? And how can body, laid in that white rush, but feel the strange heart beating where it lies?"  She got distracted by his attractiveness and felt her heartbeating but he was gone after she took the snapshot. Medina cursed herself, "Dammit! That was too close!" It was all that Orson and his friend Valentine could talk about. "Valkyrie...Agrona...They seem new, how come I never heard of them?" Valentine asked. Orson soon noticed his friend's strange behavior, "C'mon Val, give them  a chance. Just don't do something crazy." He warned. Valentine looked at him, "Like what?" He asked. Orson replied back, "Go off the deep end?" 
The Neo Gargarean Army from the Mundi Hominum; their leader is Alessandro Temple with the ranked lieutenants who are known as 'brothers'--Sechem, Karna, Gwydion, and Ammon. These bastards are victim blaming, piggish, and have no respect for the women in Neo Amazon's Valkyries. Unlike the commander and its top ranked soldiers; other soldiers show great respect for Neo Amazon: Redcross, Timias, Artegal, Calidore, Marinell, Scudamor, Triamond, Cambell, Satyrane, Malbecco, Guyon, Cymochles & Pyrochles and Colin. They noticed Alessandro Temple and the rest are teamed up with a bunch of bad people: Isengrim Nashoba, Katria Batts, Baldwin Cuthbert, Talus, and Ferragus Pepin. There are many lives going on in Caesar City--Reynard Faust is the detective and also has a double life as a dark vigilante. Meanwhile; Orson Sansnom visit his daughter, Fazon, and the grave of his deceased wife Clerimond. And separately where Medina is walking by a cemetary but she is surprised to see Valentine there as she reads the engraved on the tombstone that reads: Bellisant and Alexander Naimon. While battling with the Neo Gargarean; Medina gets attacked from above by one of them who scratched her back. It also caused her top to be torn to shreds almost and it falls off. Humiliated, Medina covers herself as her symbiotic powers save the day as it made a top for her to cover her breasts and lets out a big sigh of relief. Later on; Medina was getting her wounds stitched up when Perissa noticed something on her back. There was hair-like strand from her back. Perissa learned over and told her that the red plumes she plucked at and told her that it wasn't human: "Something went wrong, Medina. When you were attacked, something went wrong." Perissa whispered. Medina is terrified, Perissa continued to talk to her: "You're changing, Medina. Everything about you is changing, what's happening to you?" She asked. "I don't know, am I dying?" Medina said back with a panic in her voice. "I don't know." said Perissa. 

In the meantime; Valentine pulled out some papers he research on them, "Sonny, do you have a minute? Look, there's no trace of them on this research. No results." He explained. Orson groaned, "Val, c'mon! Don't be so paranoid!" Valentine look at his partner, "All I'm saying is this, Orson. I'm being serious and very certain about the facts. And that Medina here knows about them, she's hiding something!" He insisted. "It doesn't mean she's not a heroine." Orson said. "And she's not even from here!" Valentine argued. "She exists! They don't need to be looked up!" said Orson. Valentine realized what time it was and decides to cut this short however he is not going to let this go. At the gathering, it wasn't so loud as Abela Petrov feared. But she seemed shy, looking around for someone to talk to. She found people talking and laughing with some friendly looking people. Abela is fascinated in the young man who looked handsome. Abela felt something in her heart, something so warm and it made her heart go crazy by this beauty. She was curious how to approach this but she fears of disapproval, to be judged for her flaws. "No, never again. Don't let them in." She told herself. The young man look back to see Abela, who turned away quickly blushing. Then she heard her father calling her name, "Abela! Come and say hello to Valentine Naimon." He said. Abela shyly approaches him, she makes her head look up and gave Valentine good eye contact. However she recognized something familiar by Valentine's look and said, "You remind me of someone I used to know." Valentine looked at her perplexed, "I do? Like who?" He asked. Abela felt like an idiot. She looked away, "I...Sorry, not important." said Abela quickly. "Great, just great! My first impression is that she reminds me of him! Ugh, why the hell I have to go and say that!" She thought. "No, no. You can tell me." assured Valentine. Abela looked up at him hopeful, Was he trying to be nice? Or was it just an act and then be rude to her later? She didn't know. "If you don't want to, it's OK." Valentine assured her. Just then, He was told of another business at hand. Valentine turned to Abela and said, "I'll see you later then?" Abela brightens up, "Um, OK." She said. As Valentine left, Abela feels like maybe...Just maybe, he could be her 'protection'. 

In the meantime at night as Valentine slept; Abela's dark brown hair a flow and wearing white. It was a strapless, flowing dress and wears no shoes on her feet. She looks over at Valentine who slept so peacefully. She walked over and wrapped her arms around him. Caressing his hair as she whispered, "So, the angel sleeps tonight. In the world, this mighty world of heroes....Is where these warriors have traits of swift, force, strength, and mysteriousness about themselves." Abela watched as Valentine's chest rise slowly up and down as he slept. "He may sleep like a human but I know he has a beating heart within that body of his." rasped Abela softly. Then, she leaves Valentine for a moment and said, "And you...Once I have you....You'll be all mine! All mine." Abela muttered quietly. But she hits the sides of her temples as she said in a soft groan, "Urrrgggh!" She calms down by telling herself in a soothing voice, "OK, OK. I'm fine, I'm all right." Once more while watching the interviews of Valentine, Abela was observing all this as she becomes even more obsessive. She turns away and goes to her room where she close the door and lied on her bed for a moment; the faces of him are haunting her. Her hands fumbled under the covers and she begins to...Jerk. She looked like she was crying, thinking about Valentine's face in her head. Thinking and in tears, Abela begins to moan softly and gasps while remembering when she thought of him, his emotions, and his beauty is so haunted. She cannot get him out of her head. Later, she is in the bathroom, washing her hands. "Ugh, I gotta stop with the Ruddy Mitts Treatment." Abela said to herself. She dried her hands as she said in a timid like voice, "But he's so hot...." Deep in some sort of secret place; Abela is printing out pictures of Valentine. Valentine Naimon. Abela kept them all these photos in tribute collages and under lock & key! However, she fears that they will be found. And when that happens, she is scared of being laughed and rejected. She idolizes these people, she wants friends. To be loved, that's all she ever wanted.

For the time being; Orson learned about Elyssa's disguise and her true identity but then, strange things were going on with Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa. Being half human, half Valkyrie; they begin to notice strange changes to themselves. Their beauty made them look more and more gorgeou, of some sort of enhanced condition, enhanced combat, enhanced spearmanship, enhanced swordsmanship, and weapon proficiency. And what's worse, their shoulder blades growing abnormally large and then a pair of wings sprouted from them. They also experience an aura glow shine upon them their hair and body to make them look like angel-like beings for a moment. Valentine couldn't believe it, he was amazed to see Medina glowing like the light she was. "An angel...." whispered Valentine. Medina looked at him funny, "What?" She said. Orson was shocked, "Elyssa, is there something you want to tell me?" He asked. "Yeah, guess I haven't told you this but I'm a Valkyrie." said Elyssa, "Well...half Valkyrie but the daughter of one who runs a feminine army called Neo Amazon." Orson couldn't believe this and he became quite close to Elyssa after learning about her troubled past and the dangers of Neo Gargarean. Later, Medina is escorting Valentine away from the battle however Valentine couldn't take his eyes off her and it made Medina suspicious. "Why are you looking at me that way, Val?" Medina demanded. Valentine didn't say anything for a moment but then he said, "Medina, you're so beautiful." Medina blushed at his words, she looked down but then she giggled and remarked: "Did you hit your head or something bro?" But Medina could hear their mother's voice who tries to assure them that she is watching her and making sure she will come to no harm. 

Late at night; Medina was sitting at the front desk, looking at her computer. It was the night shift and she was here in case someone came to her desk. When she looked up; she looked annoyed to see Valentine strolling up to her desk. "Oh, it's you." Medina said in a monotone voice. Valentine smiled down at her, "Hello Medina." He replied. Medina adjusts her glasses, "Yeah, I remember you." She said. "I see." Valentine replied. Medina gets up from her chair, "Excuse me." She said, Medina was walking away when Valentine blocked her and she was startled as she leaned against the wall as she looked at him, "Hey--!" protested Medina but found herself looking at the beautiful young man, who says in a seductive tone: "Wanna hook up?" Medina smirks at him and slips under his arm that was blocking, "Nice try." She remarked and walks away. Valentine pretends to be offended: "Oh, that's cold." He said. However he is surprised when Medina said, "I know why your here, follow me." And Valentine did. Medina got onto the database, she begin typing up and click with the mouse. Then out printed a piece of paper and handed to Vincent. "Keep with you, it might come in handy." explained Medina. Valentine nodded, "Thanks. That wasn't so easy, and I didn't have to seduce you." He remarked. "Oh trust me, I am immune to seduction dude." said Medina with a small laugh. Valentine was stunt, he had to chuckle however he thank her and her, eft. "Thank you for the offer." Valentine remarked, he smiled at her flirtatiously. looked at him with disgust, "Tch, womanizer." She muttered. Valentine watched her, "You pretty flower." He murmured. Medina looked at him, "Sorry?" She inquired. "Nothing." Valentine said. Medina pursed her lips and responded by saying, "Maybe you shouldn't look at my ass, Mr. Charmer." She said. Valentine looked at her, "What's the matter? Shy?" He teased. Medina almost laugh, "I'm not shy, I just hate being lied to." She claimed. Valentine looks at her, "You do huh. I like you, you're pretty...witty, smart, sweet." He flirted. Medina looked at him with a cynical glance, "I bet you say that about the other girls you flirt with." She remarked. 

As Medina tried to find out more on Valentine and his mysterious past; Neo Gargarean soldiers try to assault her but then in the struggle; Medina was knocked out and one of them wanted to strip her. However, someone knocked them out and scared them off. The person responsible was Valentine! He looked at Medina, whose body was scraped and her clothes were torn. "Silly angel, do you think you could fool me that easily?" He said, staring down at her unconscious body. After a while; Valentine sipped red wine as he listened to softened opera singing in the background; he glance over at Medina, who was still unconscious, on the sofa and Valentine placed his glass down to examine her. "You know this opera? It's called Aida. It was by Giuseppe Verdi. You probably don't know it, do you...Medina Valraven?" Valentine said, "Angel....Valkyrie...Whoever you are, you are something more different....This song is about a young warrior name Radamès who wishes to be chosen as a Commander of the Egyptian army. He dreams of gaining victory on the battlefield and also of the Ethiopian slave girl, Aida, with whom he is secretly in love. He start to trace her lips with his index finger gently, "Celeste Aïda, forma divina, Mistico serto di luce e fior, Del mio pensiero tu sei regina, Tu di mia vita sei lo splendor. Il tuo bel cielo vorrei ridarti, Le dolci brezze del patrio suol, Un regal serto sul crin posarti, Ergerti un trono vicino al sol." Valentine recited. He was grazing her cheek with his knuckles. He then noticed a mark of the Valkyrie wings birthmark on her chest above her bosom and right where her heart is, "What is that?" He thought. In the sunny morning of a new day; Medina stirred and felt someone on her. She woke up slowly to see someone wearing comfy pajamas pants with elastic drawstring waist and single button fly. He wore a robe and corduroy slippers. 

Medina could see that it was Valentine, "Morning sleepyhead." He greeted. Medina looked at him and yawned while stretching, she looked around the room: "Huh? Hmm...." She said but when Medina realized where she was, she started to freak out. "OH MY GOD!!!!!" She screamed and flustered and thrashed about violently until Valentine seized her shoulders, "Will you relax? You're gonna wake up the entire neighborhood in this complex!" He said. Medina looked shameful, "Sorry!" She said. Valentine leaned back to look over at her, "So, you're a Valkyrie." He said. Medina looked at him, "...Yes." She responded. "Knew it." Valentine said with a dazzling grin. Medina blushes, "No need to rub it in, huh?" She said. "No." Valentine said. Medina was getting irritated, "Why did you save me? If you want to expose me as a fraude, then do it!" She demanded. Valentine looked at her, he then shook his head and responded: "No, that wouldn't be right of me to do so." "Why?" Medina asked, looking at him with disbelief. "Because your something special, really you are." answered Valentine. Touched, Medina couldn't help but smiled. "Thanks." She said. Valentined nodded but he had to ask Medina about these 'female angels' so Medina explained about the history of Valkyries: They were a nation of all-female warriors to have lived in Terra Feminarum, here they formed an independent kingdom under the government of a queen named Chrysogone. Valentine was intrigued by this as Medina told more about the Valkyries, but then there was the evil males that treated them like slaves and made them do the most vile deeds ever done. Leaving the Valkyries in the dust after being deflowered and bloodied; they got their revenge and almost wiped them out. The Valkyries never trusted men again and they made a country of their own and if a male was filled with perverted thoughts towards women; they were beatened or giving a worse punishment if they try to attempt. Medina explained on what are the Valkyries are like, "Valkyries... they are pure white chastity of Elaine, they have filial devotion of Cordelia and the iron will of Boadicea...Elaine, Cordelia, and Boadicea....They were her sisters."  

There was danger downtown so Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa recognize Neo Gargarean is among these enemies as they have a young lady held hostage. As the heroes and Valkyries head over; Isengrim taunts them before he turned around to Abela, "And what about you, Abela? You got a thing for Valentine?" Isengrim taunted. "What?" Abela asked, concerned. Isengrim reached into his coat pocket while muttering, "Hmm, let's see...Where did I put it....?" Then he pulls out a book that was dark blue, "Ah-ha! Here it is. A journal." He pulled it out and begins to read them as Abela looks at him suspicious: "I really wish Valentine would have feelings for me. As I stand outside of my crush’s house, the reflection of myself on his window makes it look as though I'm inside the house, than looking out. I long for the day when I'm his and welcome inside the house rather than lurking outside of it. Night, a physical conglomerate of time and space, is here set next to time itself. But night it is predominately experienced visually by a blind infamous man name Borges, 'Through the course of generations, Men brought the night into being. In the beginning were blindness and dream, and thorns which gash the bare foot and fear of wolves.' I don't feel welcomed amongst people outside in the buzz of every day life due to my known average of unattractiveness. I want to try to convince Valentine that it is truly best to stay tucked away in the cellar, away from the harsh judgments made in the light of day outside. Things of silence is what you need in this life of isolation. Trying to move on but my past is distracting me. The crystal ball doesn’t work so well for looking ahead- but hindsight is always 20/20. Collecting celebrity gossip pages, girls like me seem to love a man with pretty things.....'" 

Humiliated; Abela couldn't believe and heard the enemies laughing but not her friends. Abela was filled with anger, hot boiling anger inside of her. All of a sudden; she felt the pain inside of her. Then, she snapped. Abela's hair turns mahogany hair and pulls a double axe weaponry as she laughed maniacally and sliced the entire Neo Gargarean soldiers and the enemies, shocking Elyssa & her sisters as well as the heroes! They could see her anger and hatred. But the only one who remained is Isengrim and Abela was going to kill him. In her rage of madness; Abela peers at the sun, with hatred, wanting it to go away. When people stare at the sun, they will burn their retinas, and all will go black. Revenge is what a bitter person means when they laugh, but, there’s nothing funny. Abela's heart is so polluted, that she is going to see everything tainted and her rejected love will be avenged. But in reality, Valentine is unaware of this. Abela goes from seeing a bright and cheery red door, and paints it black, to wanting everything to be black, for everyone, and by blotting out the sun, it is all over for every living thing, and she’ll get her revenge. Elyssa could hear Abela's thoughts as she thinks she's being rejected by Valentine because she's a 'freak' and someone as gorgeous as Valentine would never love her. Abela's thoughts are rambling with tears and fears as Elyssa learns from her memories of humiliation and rejection. Elyssa and the others research on Abela; it turns out she was a successful student however she had no social skills because of her emotional condition, however she deals with people and crushes who humiliate her as well as reject her in the painful way. The last straw came when Abela wrote a story about her former crushes and was the laughingstock. 

Then, Abela ran away in tears and was involved in a freak accident as it turned her dark blonde hair into mahogany red hair and made her into an unstable anger that is threatened to turn violent. Valentine is shocked by her past, as he known her as a nice girl but now he knows that she has a thing for him. So, Valentine comes up with a plan. He vows to find her and he search all over as he found her at a warehouse, with Isengrim on the ground as he struggles to get the axes away from him. "Abela, is that you?" Valentine called out to her. Mortified and uncomfortable to see him; Abela looked away from him, "Please, go away." She said darkly. "Let me help  you, Abela." Valentine coaxed, walking over to her carefully. Abela begin to weep, "Why can't you people leave me alone?" She demanded through her sobs. Valentine hold back his own tears, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you went through so much pain." He said. Abela chuckled darkly with no humor and said, "That's the thing...You forget, you don't know anything about me." "I am not going to let you go after him by yourself." said Valentine. "Oh really?" Abela said, holding her double axes. "Valentine, what are you going to do to stop me?" She demanded. Before Valentine could say another word; Isengrim open his big mouth: "You are nothing, you couldn't be strong enough to admit your feelings and you are such a freak!" taunted Isengrim. Abela shuttered, she couldn't believe it and she lost control of herself. She begin to stab Isengrim repeatedly while screaming hysterically. When she snapped out of it, Abela was shocked as she saw that her hands were dripping with blood. She begins to cry uncontrollably, "Di--di--di--Did I do that?" She spluttered out. Abela try to slice herself with her ax and attempt to take her own life until Valentine stop her. Abela is shocked, "Get off me...get off me....All that stuff I wrote, it was a lie. All a lie...." She insisted. Valentine didn't say anything and managed to get the axes away from her before she could take a strike at herself. Then, Valentine gives Abela a liplock kiss, then the lips departed as Valentine's voice whispered against the gasping Abela, "Did you like that? I really hope you did. Because I've been wanting to do that all this time."


Abela felt her face turned red but she got angry and pushed him away as she said, "STOP IT!!!!" Valentine looked at her with surprise, "What? What do you mean?" He asked. "Stop trying to trick me, I know what you're trying to do." Abela said, glaring at him after she got away from him. "I'm not, I think you're different from all the girls and maybe I want you by my side as my friend." insisted Valentine. Abela turned back to him, "You--you mean it?" She said. Valentine nodded, "Yes, I'm not going to reject you again. I know because I had hardships in my life and I'm willing to help you if you let me in." He said. So Abela did, and had her first real friend. Elyssa, Medina, and Perissa were touched to see this as Abela she found her key of happiness that lies inside of herself as well as Valentine and other people. But Elyssa and her sisters were approached by the remains of Neo Gargarean came along: Redcross, Timias, Artegal, Calidore, Marinell, Scudamor, Triamond, Cambell, Satyrane, Malbecco, Guyon, Cymochles & Pyrochles and Colin. They apologize for the trouble of the other ranked officials and would like to start peace which the trio of sisters agree. In the meantime; Abela found out that living for others and sharing love, time and other good things in life with people is what truly brings fulfilment and happiness. She believes that life is much more than just a physical plan, and what makes her happy is doing the right things. She believes in the possibility that everything will be fine, because whoever is watching over her will protect her. Heart was like nuclear, blood boiling to the marrow, and adrenaline rushing through every hair on her head. Aynia lets go and defeats the Daughters of Valkyries. Her defeated opponents were good sports before they left on good terms. In the meantime, Sakuya reveals herself as Etain and she wants to get revenge but Bryce apologizes for what he caused. However, Etain doesn't believe him. Before she uses her new powers, the Dearg Due monsters try to kill however Bryce protects her from them. Shocked, Etain is stunt and touched by this.
