'BAM!!!' loud crash was heard the moment they landed. "Ow... Gwenevive, you okay?" Zack asked as he looked over at Gwenevive who was lying on her back.
She sat up and replied "I'm fine... I think..." As she looked at herself.
Zack looked around the wooden hut. It looked like nobody stayed there it was totally empty with only cobwebs all about. "Er... Where... Are we?" He then asked Gwenevive.
"I have no idea... The only thing I remember was that I went through that weird portal with you... The next thing I was here..." Gwenevive replied looking confused.
"Oh great! Now we don't even know where are we!! It's worst then the situation we were in just now..." Zack replied, as he tried to recall what had happened.
"Were we in a situation?" Gwenevive then asked confused.
"Erm... Well... I..." Zack replied trying to think of an
answer.
"Who goes there?!!" They then heard several men say as they were trying to bang the door down.
"Uh oh, I think we're in trouble..."Gwenevive said to Zack.
"I know!! Come, let's hide!!" Zack replied looking around.
"Erm... THERE'S NOWHERE FOR US TO HIDE!!!" Gwenevive shouted getting more and more frustrated by the minute.
"Hide beside the door!!" Zack said pointed to Gwenevive the left side of the door for her to hide, while he went to the right.
"I count one to three and you give the guy a punch while I give the other guy a kick!! Get it?" Zack said the plan to her.
"One, two, THREE!!!" Zack shouted the moment the people came in.
"HIYA!!!" Gwenevive shouted as she give the man on the left a surprise punch right in the face.
Zack gave the other man on the right a powerful kick right in the face. "Gwenevive, you didn't have to be so dramatic." He said dully facing her.
"Gives me more spirit!!" Gwenevive explained, smiling.
"Okay... Fine, whatever you like. Well, we slugged them, let's get out of this place and ask the other villagers." Zack replied looking at the two men lying on the floor.
"Okay. By the way, just call me Gwen. It's easier." Gwenevive replied as she crossed over one of the man.
"Okay. Gwen." Zack answered smiling as he, also crossed over the man.
"Hm... I wonder... How many years do you think we went back?" Gwen then asked thinking.
"Well... All I know we went back a few hundred years... Even their attire is different." Zack said looking at the men once again.
"A FEW HUNDRED!!!" Gwen shouted, eyes wide open with
shock.
"Well, my dad said that I'm supposed to get some Nacklace Of Fate. It was destroyed a few hundred years ago."
"Oh no... What if... What if... What if they look at us and thought we were some aliens due to our attire?" Gwen then asked feeling scared.
"Nah, I don't think so... We have two eyes, one nose, one mouth... We look exactly the same as them except our attire... Just say we're from another country or something..." Zack replied.
"Well, let's pray that will work... Come on,let's go... Do you think they have calenders or something, so that we know how many years we are back?" Gwen then continued asking.
"I don't think so... I don't think they invented that yet... Maybe they carved it onto wood or something... We'll go to the village and ask... They know better than us." Zack replied, thinking, 'Why must these complicated things happen to me? Why can't it happen to someone else? Oh, just my luck!!'
"Anyway, why did we have to go back in time? Is the Necklace Of Fate that important for you?" Gwen asked.
"I'll tell you once we reached the village." Zack replied as he continued walking but at faster pace.
When they reached, the villagers looked at them with fearsome stares and started whispering with each other. "See, I told you they'll think we're aliens or something!!" Gwen said as she looked at them.
"Come on, let's go ask one of them." Zack said as he walked towards a girl with back hair, brown eyes, wearing a light blue long sleeved baggy shirt and a long blue skirt to match.
"Hi, erm... Sorry to bother you but... do you know what year it is?" Zack asked feeling rather dumb.
"I... I... I... don't know!!! Please don't hurt me!!" The girl stammered with fear as she started to retreat and soon ran away.
"I told you, they are scared of us." Gwen said as she walked towards him.
"Who are you people?!! Tell us!!" One of the man said as he drew a knife at them.
"Please!! We're not here to cause trouble!! We're not bad guys!! We just... need to ask you some questions!!" Zack said hurriedly trying to calm them down.
"You can ask me any question about this village!!" A man of old age suddenly stepped out.
"But... Governor!! They may be spies!!" The man replied.
"I don't think so... I don't think spies would just walk into our village so casually and with such attire that will draw so much attention..." The old man replied as he started to observe them.
"Now... What would you like to know?" The old man asked smiling showing a set a teeth which was all crooked.
"Erm... We just wanna know... What year it is..." Zack replied feeling rather disgusted by the old man's teeth.
"Oh! This is the year one hundred and eighty five!" The old man replied.
"Erm... Zack... We went two hundred years back in time!!" Gwen calculated tepping Zack on the shoulder.
"Oh great... two hundred... I don't even know whether paper was invented..." Zack replied feeling rather hopeless of any chance finding the Necklace Of Fate.
"No, paper has already been invented..." The old man replied.
"At least that something to be happy about... We can write letters!!" Gwen replied trying her best to feel optimistic about their situation.
"I don't quite feel like smiling now. Gwen. We're in hot soup!!" Zack replied.
"Just trying to feel happy in such a hopeless situation..." Gwen replied as her efforts of feeling optimistic failed.
"Come, let's come to my house and have some tea and I'll tell you more!" The old man replied pointing to the direction of where his house was.
"Thanks..." Zack replied following the old man to his house.
