in tears. “Mommy, when will he stop?”
The woman sat next to Olivia and rapped her arms around the child. “I don’t know.”
“CASSANDRA!” a man called from inside of the house.
“Oh no. What does he want now?” Cassandra asked herself. “Stay out here. I don’t want anything worst to happen to you,” she told her daughter. She stood up and started to head for the door.
“CASSANDRA!” the man yelled again.
“I’M COMING, BOBBY!”


Ryoko and Leo were at the castle. Ryoko didn’t want to go into the castle. The castle was the last place where she wanted to be. She didn’t want to be anywhere near Magma.
“Come on, Ryoko. It’s your cousin’s birthday.”
“I don’t care.... I don’t want to be anywhere near that snobby....”
“Ryoko, watch your mouth.”


Russel and Jim were in the hallway of the castle which led to the throne and ball room. Jim welcomed anyone who had come to the castle and was there for the princess’s party.
Ryoko and Leo walked in and over to the king and the older bounty hunter. Leo acted like nothing was wrong, even though Ryoko had given him a hard time all day. “Ryoko, why don’t you go tell Magma happy birthday?”
“Whatever.” Ryoko went toward the ball room. She stopped and turn toward the three men. She just stared angrily at her father. She didn’t like her father, uncle, and grandfather. They were all evil to her and she didn’t want to deal with them. It didn’t help anything so she just turned back toward the ball room and left the hall.
“Leo, have you talked to Ash about coming back as a bounty hunter?” Russel asked.
“Yes I did, but he said no,” Leo replied.
Russel didn’t like to hear that. He was hoping that his other son would go back, but he didn’t. “I bet Chealsey has something to deal with this.” He sighed. “I’ll go talk to him.”
“He’s just going to say no.”
“If he says no, then I’ll just kill him and his wife.”
“What’ll happen to Zelda?”
“You’re her Godfather. You’ll deal with her.”
“Okay.”
“I better go.” Russel turned toward Jim. “Tell the child that I said happy birthday.” He left without another word.


Ryoko looked around the ballroom. She seen other children. Other girls who were invited to her cousin’s birthday party. Then her cousin stood in front of her. Her cousin looked Asian because of her aunt’s side of the family.
The young princess got everything that she wanted and was told that she was better than everyone else and believed it. She was all that and anyone who she didn’t like was under her, way under her. They were lower than dirt. She was one of Ryoko’s rivals. The only two reasons why the princess had invited Ryoko were because her parents told her to and so she could rub it in Ryoko’s face. “So, you came to my party?” the princess asked.
Ryoko didn’t answer.
“You don’t have anything to say.... You know what because I’m the princess, I’m going to get everything that I want.... So, Ryoko, what’s it like to be poor?”
Ryoko was starting to grow angry. It wasn’t fair that the rude child got everything and anything. “Shut up, Magma,” Ryoko warned her cousin. She balled up her fist and she was ready to pouch Magma.
“Shut up? Oh come on. What are you going to do about it?” Magma asked. She was trying to antagonize Ryoko and it was working.
Ryoko went to pouch her cousin when an Asian woman walked in. The woman was the queen and Magma’s mother. Ryoko placed her hand next to her side. “You better be glad that your mommy’s here because I would of pouched you.”
“Hello, Ryoko.” The queen had a fake smile on her face and Ryoko knew it. Her aunt had encouraged Magma to act like a spoiled brat.
Ryoko didn’t understand how she had to treat them with respect when they treated her like crap. It just wasn’t fair. “Hello, Auntie Lizabeth.” Threatened

Pluto was a planet which was miles away from Blaze. While Blaze was the fire planet, Pluto was known as the ice planet because of how cold it was. The ice king was a kind hearted and good man, unlike the evil fire king on Blaze.
This King wasn't a fan of the pirates but he didn't believe in killing them. He believed that if a pirate was captured, then they should be placed in jail. That was where the space police came in. See, the police worked under the ice king and his queen. When a man or woman became a cop, there was a list of rules that they had to follow and if they didn't follow those rules, then they would have to be watched like a hawk. The second time, they were sent on suspension. The third time, well, they were kicked off the force.
The police understood that just because they worked for the law, that didn't make them above the law. They knew that there were consequences, when they broke the rules.
Now, the good king was in the dinning room of the ice palace. He sat next to his ice queen. The dinning room was filled with icy decorations. The king sat on the side of the long table which sat ten people, that way he was next to his lovely queen.
The queen had icy, blonde hair which matched her icy, blue eyes, and her lucent personality. The king had blonde hair as well with a pinch of red and blue eyes. He too had a lucent personality which was what had brought them together.
“King Artic, Queen Breeza,” a man with nicely, brushed, wet, kind of long, black hair said as he walked into the room. This man was the head of the police. It was a honor for him to work for and to serve under the good king and his queen.
“What is it, Craig?” Artic asked.
“Well, your honor, we had just brought a shipload of pirates and we thought you should know.”
“That is good news. Are they jailed yet?”
“My men are placing them in jail as we speak, sir.”
“Wonderful.”


A day had went by. Russel knocked on a door. He waited for his youngest son to answer or his son's wife. He was there for a job. He wanted to persuade Ash to be a bounty hunter again, but he didn't know how Ash would react. If Ash said yes, then everything would be right between father and son, but if he said no, then Russel would kill him and his wife. Now, Russel didn't have a problem with killing his own family.
The door opened. “Dad?” Ash asked, surprised. He wasn't expecting his dad to be there. “What's going on? Why are you here?”
“I'll explain everything, but first, can I come in?”
“Of course,” Ash replied.
Russel walked into the house.


Chealsey and Zelda walked downstairs. Chealsey heard Ash talking to someone in the kitchen, but didn't know who he was talking to. “Come on, Zelda. Let's go something to eat.”
“Okay, mommy.”


Ash was leaning on the counter next to the sink, while Russel was sitting at the little, round kitchen table. Ash listened patiently to what his father had to tell him, but he strongly disagreed.
“Dad, like I told Leo, there's no way I'm going to become a bounty....”
Chealsey and Zelda had walked into the room.
“Daddy, can you hand me a plate, please?” the child asked as she walked over to Ash.
Ash grew quiet. He didn't like to talk about the deadly job in front of his five-year-old daughter. He reached into a cabinet and grabbed a paper plate, and handed it to Zelda.
Chealsey pulled out a jar of peanut butter then she walked over to the refrigerator and pulled out a jar of jelly. Once she was done making the sandwich, she put everything away. “Come on, Zelda. You can eat outside.”
“Okay, mommy.”
As Chealsey walked past Russel, she kind of glared at him. She despised her father-in-law. She knew that he was evil and she knew that Ash didn't want to live that life any more.
Ash waited 'til Chealsey and Zelda had left the room before continuing. “I don't want to be a bounty hunter anymore, dad. I hate the job okay. I'm happy as a school teacher.”
“But---”
“No. You can't persuade me to change my mind. Alright?”
“No, it's not alright.” Russel jumped out of his chair which fell back. “If you don't, then I'll kill you and Chealsey. Zelda's going to go to stay with Leo and his wife.”
“Do what you want to me, but leave Chealsey and Zelda out of this.”
“To late.... Once you turn your back on us bounty hunters, then you put your family into this.... You and Chealsey are dead.... I'll murder you and her in front of the child.” Russel left without another word.
Chealsey walked into the room and ran over to Ash. She seen the sadness in her husband's eyes. “I heard the whole thing,” she said as she hugged him.
“He's going to actually kill us,” Ash said, shocked. He knew that Russel met what he said. “Find a hiding place for Zelda.... I have a bad feeling that he's going to come back tomorrow.... Chealsey, I love you and I want you to leave, then come back for Zelda and get off the planet.... I don't want anything to happen to you.”
“No. I will not leave you alone with that guy.... 'Til death do us part.... I don't care if he kills me.... I will not leave your side,” Chealsey protested. 

Runaway

Ryoko sat outside on the porch of the house. The party had ended an hour before because it was a slumber party and now she just sat looking up at the stars. The seven-year-old was thinking of a way to escape from the planet. She wanted to leave the house forever and she didn't want to deal with her father anymore. She looked over at Leo, who was checking the oil to his black, little, family car. Russel was leaning against the one car garage which was built a couple feet away from the house.
Ryoko couldn't help but ease drop on their conversation. Even though,
