Let's Find Our Way Back Home!
CALL FROM DR. VIVIENNE
It was a usual morning for Liza and her friends Max and Tyler.
Liza
*yawning*
good morning
Max
You finally woke up huh?
Max
It's almost noon now. That's what I mean
Tyler
Liza you should change your sleeping schedule.
As there's a saying "early to bed, early to rise"
Liza
*in a daze* It's noon already.....
I was planning to have a Biking practice....
Lakeisha
Ya! Liza! woke up, I see!
Lakeisha
Stop daydreaming and come down here to have your breakfast 🥞. I made breakfast for you.
And you're late! As always..
So do compensate me later
Liza
Thanks Lakeisha! Only you make breakfast for me whenever I wake up late(╥﹏╥)
Liza
As for compensation, what about having a Biking practice together with me?
Lakeisha
Mountain biking is it again?
No Liza. You know I've run out of practice. I'll definitely lose my balance over critical objects in my way
Tyler
No. You won't be going for your biking practice today. Dr. Vivienne called, asking us to come visit her
Liza
she called?
Usually she doesn't even have time to call as she's always busy... Is it something urgent?
Tyler
Probably. She sounded excited on call.
Must be one of her new little discoveries
Max
What does that matter? Eat, quick. Let's leave early.
You're not only slow in eating but dressing up as well
Liza
Dressing up??!?? When did you ever see me dressing up Max! It's called "getting ready"
Tyler
c'mon you too. Now's not the time for this
Liza
Tyler! You tell him what's the difference between "dressing up" and "getting ready to go out"
Tyler
Well... It's almost the same thing...
Lakeisha
*by the kitchen basin*
Haha these besties never change.
I wish I had my own friends like that as well
NOTE: LIZA, MAX AND TYLER HAVE BEEN FRIENDS SINCE THEY WERE KIDS.
TYLER IS THE OLDEST ONE AMONG THEM (HE'S 19)
MAX IS IN THE MIDDLE SINCE HE'S 17
AND LIZA IS 16
THEIR RELATIONSHIP MAY SEEM KINDA COMPLICATED FOR OTHERS TO UNDERSTAND BECAUSE AT ONE MOMENT THEY'RE LIKE TOTAL SIBLINGS BUT THE NEXT, THEY'RE TOTAL BEST FRIENDS
Liza
We'll be going then, so bye Lakeisha.
Take care!
Lakeisha
Be careful on the way you guys!
AFTER MINUTES OF TRAVELLING BY BUS 🚌
THEY REACHED AT DR. VIVIENNE'S PLACE
Dr. Vivienne
Yo. You guys came?
Tyler
You called early in the day asking us to come to here
Max
So we thought that it might be something urgent
Tyler
So, what did you ask us to come here for Doc?
Dr. Vivienne
Ah, I asked you to come here to check my new invention
Liza
A new invention? really? that's awesome Doc!
Can we have a look?
Dr. Vivienne
That's the sole reason I asked you guys to come over
LIZA AND MAX: WOAH! It's a time watch!?
Tyler
What's this time watch for Doc? the designs on it are complicated
Dr. Vivienne
It's a time stopping, time travel, super exclusive watch!
Not just some mere time watch
Tyler
Scientists definitely suck at naming things...
Max
They either name Their inventions after them....
Liza
Or use the word "exclusive" before anything incredible.....
Rashmi
Haha! You children seem to not like the name
Rashmi
How many times have I told you to not call me that! I'm still young and beautiful! Call me Miss!
Liza
Eyy??!!? But calling you Miss is so weird
You're literally a mother figure to us-
Miss Amanda
it's tea time!
Max
oh I love tea time.
Don't you as well Tyler?
Tyler
I just like the cookies
Miss Amanda
and since Liza doesn't like tea...
I made green tea for you. Your favourite
Liza
Yay! Thanks Miss Amanda!
She's Doc Vivienne.
She's a scientist but she likes to be called a doctor (there are reasons)
She's 27
She's Miss Rashmi.
She's an Indian. She might seem like a nut tough to crack but she actually has a soft spot for her "children" Liza, Max and Tyler.
As Liza said, she's like a mother figure to them so they call her Ammi.
Her age is - 29
Miss Amanda - she's American and likes to dress up like in the 50s or 60s. She has a taste in clothes.
Her age is 27 as well
AUTHOR'S NOTES: ALL THESE PICTURES AND GIF ARE NOT MINE. THEY HAVE CREDITORS.
I TOOK THESE FROM PINTEREST
They were enjoying their tea time. And there was a crow sitting on a tree branch right beside the window
The crow flew right in and swooped over the tea cups that still had some tea left in it.
The tea fell on the time watch and Liza tried to grab it. Max was just after her
The time watch was now ruined by the liquid that fell on it and an indescribable electric sparks could be seen coming from it
It engulfed Liza, Max and
Tyler who was after his friends trying to protect them from it
Max
Wh-
Liza! Tyler! Grab my hands!
whoosh! Tyler disappeared!
Whoosh! Max disappeared as well!
Miss Amanda
Liza! grab unto our arms
Rashmi
Kid! Listen to us! Grab-
And with that. All three of them disappeared
Dr. Vivienne
Oh no.. What have I done..?
Miss Amanda
no, don't blame yourself for it Vivienne. It wasn't your fault..
Dr. Vivienne
I'LL FIND A WAY TO GET THEM BACK!
Liza
WHERE THE HELL AM I?!???
WHERE AM I?!!??
Liza
Damn... I definitely time travelled.... No doubt.
Liza
But why China?? It literally looks like China! no, wait-
IT IS CHINA!
I mean God I love China but I don't understand Chinese! now how am I gonna survive?
Liza
I gotta look for some ancient Chinese clothes first.. Otherwise, who knows I might even get caught by the royal gaurds for wearing suspicious clothing
Qian
Hey little lady, what are you doing out here in the streets alone?
Liza
You.. You're not a human.
A fox spirit?
Qian
Hmm..Anyways you don't seem to be around here, are you from the grasslands?
Liza
ah yes yes! I'm from the grasslands..
(I'm not sure, but during ancient times they used to call Mongolia as Grasslands)
Qian
You need to change your clothing. They're way too suspicious. Even for people from your land
Liza
..... But I don't know where to go..
Can you take me?
Liza
Please? *begging eyes*
{I did say that I don't understand Chinese but that's only when it comes to writing and reading! I can speak fine!}
Qian
* troubled sigh* what's your name?
Qian
.. Fine, Come with me. I'll take you to a place where you can change your clothes
AT THE SHUYU
(A HIGH END BROTHEL)
Qian
I apologise for taking you here..
But here's the only place where I can get you clothes to change to
Liza
It's alright. Atleast, I got to change
Liza
Thank you for helping me out there and not abandoning me *bows*
Liza
And thank you very much as well, Miss. You helped me out by giving me clothes to change into *bows*
Huang Fēn
don't bow *making her stand up*
It's nothing. I'm glad I could help you out
*smiles*
Qian
What's up little girl?
Liza
her smile is so pretty *gasping*
Qian
That's it?
I thought you saw a ghost or something judging by your expression
Liza
are you telling me that ghosts roam here?
Huang Fēn
Haha... There aren't any ghosts here and thank you so much for the compliment*smiles*
It means a lot to me
Liza
I was just telling the truth *smile*
Huang Fēn
Oh it's Nothing.
{she kind of looks like my older sister but...}
Qian
Fēn. Can you let her stay with you? I know that this place isn't good for a young girl to live in. And you live all by yourself at your home, so I thought maybe you could..
Huang Fēn
*punches*
You only ever think about gambling and roaming, don't you?!
Qian
I don't gamble! *massaging his head*
Ow.... it hurts
Huang Fēn
but I'm willing to let her stay with me.
But are you okay with this little girl? If you feel uncomfortable or think that it's too rash then you can tell us
Liza
it's totally alright!
I've got no place to go anyways and I can also help you out with your household chores or with the cleaning of the floors and walls of brothel
Qian
Are you sure?
A young girl like you working on a high end brothel like this will make people misunderstand your situation
Liza
it's alright!
as I can see, Jiejie Huang Fēn only works as a cleaning maid. I can do that too. Besides I need to earn my own money (╥﹏╥)
Huang Fēn
I'll protect you so you don't have to worry
Liza
{I will too}
*smiles*
Qian
*sigh* you girls
Fine. Take care. And if anyone harasses or bullies you two, you have to let me know
Huang Fēn
We will. bah! Now get out
Qian
Fine Fine Jiejie
*jumps out the window*
Liza
You're older than him?
Huang Fēn
we are like siblings to each other
Liza
{I wonder where Max and Tyler are...}
WHAT A MARVELOUS KINGDOM
LIZA, MAX AND TYLER GOT SEPARATED AND THE TRIO WERE SENT TO DIFFERENT PARTS OF A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ERA/WORLD.
HOWEVER, WHEN SEEING THE PLACE, THINGS, THE WAY THE PEOPLE DRESS, THE RULES THEY LIVE BY,
THEY NOTICED THAT IT'S NOT VERY MUCH DIFFERENT FROM THEIR ORIGINAL/MODERN WORLD.
THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES THE WORLD COMPLETELY DIFFERENT IS,
IT'S FILLED WITH FANTASY!
FANTASY CREATURES CO-EXIST, MAGIC EXISTS.
MYTHS EXIST HERE.
LIZA IS IN (PHANTASY WORLDLY) CHINA
NOW WE'LL KNOW WHERE MAX AND TYLER IS
Max
*processing*
*getting up*
my friends!
Samarina
Hey Hey, you haven't fully recovered yet. Take rest and don't get up from your bed
Max
Who are you? where's this?
*recalls*
WHEN THEY GOT SEPARATED,
AND SUCKED INTO THE ABYSS,
MAX, WHEN OPENED HIS EYES, FOUND HIMSELF IN AN ICY COLD LAND.
WHERE COLD WIND WERE BLOWING AND THE WHOLE GROUND WAS COVERED WITH SNOW ❄️
THE TEMPERATURE WAS SO COLD THAT HE COULD FEEL HIS WHOLE BODY GOING
NUMB.
HE WAS ON THE BRINK OF PASSING OUT, LYING COLD ON THE GROUND, WHEN HE SAW A PERSON GETTING DOWN FROM THE BACK OF A WOLF AND WALKING TOWARDS HIM
Max: I can't do this anymore... *closed eyes*
AND THE LAST THING HE SAW BEFORE PASSING OUT WAS
Max
So it was you
{Liz and Tyler weren't there with me. Could it be that they're in different parts?}
Samarina
yes, and if I hadn't shown up, you'd be dead
Max
Pretty Miss, I thank you from my very soul for saving me back there. I would have died really.
Samarina
Why soul? And why not heart?
Samarina
Because males don't have a heart?
Max
What? No.
That's not what I meant and was trying to say.
Max
that's because if I'd died there my soul would have been gone and you saved me back there so I thank you from my very soul cause you saved my life
Max
{I know it sounds stupid, but I'm tryna make her laugh even just a bit.
Liza I swear, your reasonings are always stupid}
Huang Fēn
When did you catch a cold?
Liza
No I don't think it's a cold 🤧
Someone's probably talking bad about me.
{why do I feel like Max is calling me an idiot right now? Feels fishy}
Samarina
pfft that's such a stupid reason
Max
you look tough but you're really cute
Samarina
you should have something to fill your appetite now
Max
but I don't really have an appetite right now *stomach growls*
I, ,,, I think I should
Samarina
You're funny.
I heard your stomach growling all while when you were still lying on the bed
Max
now that's embarrassing // //
Max
by the way, where is this place? And where exactly am I?
Samarina
*fingers slowly sliding through the glass window*
You
Samarina
Are in our kingdom "Frost of the Lost"
Max
that's a pretty nice name for a kingdom covered with snow and Frost *thumbs up*
Samarina
..what does *doing the same* mean?
Max
Oh it just means "nice" or "good"
Samarina
*doing it again* I see..
Max
{oh my words, Liza, Tyler, I'm being asked out!}
Max
{I know I'm handsome but I never thought I would get a girl this quick just by my looks}
Samarina
I could show you around
Max
eh?
{••••••••caw caw••••••••}
Max
Oh.yes, please. I would love that
Max
{god, this is so embarassing (个_个)
Thank god they're not here, otherwise they would have teased the shit Outta me}
Max
your kingdom is marvelous.
Everything here is frozen
Max
I- I mean in a good way
Samarina
I know. You don't have to be so nervous about everything
Max
{that's because a girl like you is with me right now // //} *peeks*
Samarina
*turns around* oh. It's you,Owen
Owen
yeah, I came back yesterday and I wanted to meet you as soon as I arrived
Samarina
I see. so how was your trip?
Max
*staring through behind her*
Owen
Who's this yellow bee?
Max
yellow bee? *smirk* that's a rude way to ask someone's name, carrot
Max
*smirk*
What a creepy forced smile *provoking*
Owen
Coming from a bee guy who's giving such weird smirks.
It's giving me goosebumps
Max
Same goes to you *smile* 💢
Max
{a love rival? I'm not backing down}
Owen
{hmph. Just some blondie who's probably thinking that he can get Marina but no, he's wrong}
Samarina
you two... (・_・);
Samarina
Max, Owen is my childhood acquaintance and we often used to go hunting together, so we quite know each other well
Samarina
*turning to Owen*
Max was found wounded in the Frost Grounds and I'm the one who brought him back, so I'm taking care of him now
Before things could get worse, just then Owen's father had sent someone to call him back so he went back after saying bye to Samarina
Samarina
Hey.. It's okay now. You don't have to be so guarded against him
Max
Your smile is so natural
Max
When you blush as well
Owen
{I came back to give her the present I brought back for her but...}
Owen
{I'll give it tomorrow}
For the night, Max was learning about the kingdom. Its all sorts of rules and listened to Samarina telling its valour and stories
Max
*lying on bed*
It's my first day here and I already got to learn so many things about this place
Max
And one thing is for sure, it revolves around magic and logic
Max
*taking a look at his hands*
I wonder,
It was snowing,
snowing snowflakes and magic
Max
*looking out the glass window*
If I'm able to do magic as well
Max
I need to find my friends.
Max
Tyler.Liza.
wherever you two are, stay safe.
I'll find you guys. No matter what.
