"Sarah, call the units up from barricade I'm going to keep the Mech back."

"Roger that, two of the combat drones have the archer we were able to get a detainment mask on him, but he ripped off of one of the combat drones arms."

"When I was inside of the vehicle, I didn't see the Princess. Have you seen her?"

"Not directly, but I saw a bed that looked like a coffin. It had heavy-duty springs on it and quite a few runes around it. I think it's what they used to transporter in order to keep her from moving around too much and getting more injured."

"I guess that leaves the unconscious Carol and Nola. Nola is some kind of mage, or she's gone out of the way to learn magic. Also, I'm sending you a recording." ("I knew you were going to be trouble Thief.")

This conversation between Sarah and me was taking place in less than an eighth of a second. So we had plenty of time to figure things out, While the combat drones made it to the disabled vehicle.

"The only thing we know you stole was an empty dungeon core from the god of chaos, Which were not really sure what that is but must be what he's talking about. Also, I think Nola is being controlled by the god of chaos or is the god of chaos, not really sure."

"Wonder if he's trying to kidnap Carol is some kind of revenge or if he's working for whatever family is trying to kidnap her."

"Cray, start running. There's some kind of dome shield over the two of them, and now Nola is making a hole in space."

I started sprinting with the Mech "give me a camera feed on the dome."

The camera showed me the Nola was standing in the middle of a dome that was 2 m tall. She was holding Carol in a fireman's carry and had both her hands raised up with a spinning disk that led out into dark stone room. The disc was only 10 cm wide and was slowly growing larger Nola was muttering to herself in a cracking voice. "Kingdoms two finest guards and warlord all take it down in less than a minute. No, I get to shadow demon things which even I don't know what they are staring at me, and I have to use up the last of my magic to open up a stupid portal. It just had to be a giant is the first healer and not be some random person. Anybody else, Any-body else. But no, had to be the first giant."

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

I aimed with the Mech planning on shooting out the top part of the shield to knock it out. "Sarah three seconds tell I can shoot."

"Two combat drones are standing just outside the dome ready for you to take control. They're both holding detainment mask."

Once the gun finished charging. I fired and immediately switched over to one of the drones. I watched as the round bounced off the top of the dome making cracks radiating outward from the impact, the dome held."Sarah, take the Mech and bring it over here and start attacking the dome with its arms and legs. I'll run in, the instant the dome breaks in capture Nola."

The Mech broke down one of the walls on the damaged vehicle and started punching the dome while the machine-gun on the second set of arms began firing at it, but it didn't have as much effect as the canons first shot. Nola starts muttering again." Well, there goes this deal. I'm not going to have enough mana to even talk once I go through the portal, which means three months of planning down the drain. At least I'm going to get a war out of this Maybe even two." Nola let out a sigh. As the portal finished forming Nola said in the crackling male voice. "Have fun trying to get her back from the king of Vanaheimr, thief." Nola leaped through the portal carrying Carol the portal closed, and the barrier faded.

The Mech stumbled when his arm went through the vanishing dome."Sarah, did you see anything on the other side? All I saw was a stone wall."

"Same here. I had four different camera angles all showing the same Stonewall, and it's not three-dimensional. I think it's a fake picture over the portal."

"So we don't even know if Nola took Carol to Vanaheimr?"

"We don't even know if she's on the same continent."
