Chapter Six
As they're settling in for the night, a shadow on the wall opens its glowing white eyes. Shadow Demon had been evesdropping all night long and heard every word that was said between the young adventurers and their new friends. As soon as he's certain that he won't be seen he slips out of the ancient mansion and seeks out his master, Venger. He soon finds Venger sitting astride his nightmare and tells him all that had transpired.
"So," says Venger, "they plan on returning to their own time do they? Well if they're going to travel to this Ariel's stepfather, then we are going to be there to greet them."
And with that, Venger and his trusted steed soar through the air to find the wizard Sabian, with Shadow Demon following close behind. Some time later, the wizard Sabian is sitting on his throne in his throne room and eating grapes being fed to him one at a time by a slave girl dressed in a torn and ragged skirt and blouse. Just then his chamber doors fly open and the robot guards he had stationed outside hurtle in to lie in a broken heap on the floor. In strolls Venger with hardly a care over the havoc he had just wrought. Sabian glares at Venger with vile contempt.
"How dare you barge into my inner sanctum!" He growls, "GUARDS! Eliminate him!"
Four concealed doors open and several mutants come charging out. Venger throws out his hands and with hardly a thought sends the mutants flying back to crash into the walls and fall unconscious in a crumpled heap. Sabian lifts a hand and shoots a bolt of magical energy at Venger from the palm of his hand. Venger deflects the blast with his palm. Sabian shoots two beams of energy at Venger, one from each hand. Venger deflects these too.
"Enough!" Shouts Venger, "I have not come here to fight you!"
"Who are you then?" Asks Sabian, "And what do you want?"
"I am Venger, mightiest wizard of my world...or yours. And I am here to offer you an alliance."
"And why should I ally myself with you?" Asks Sabian.
"Because," says Venger, "your stepdaughter and her friends are on their way here."
"Ariel?" He asks, now very interested, "Coming here?"
"Yes," says Venger, "she and her barbarian friend, together with that great beast will be accompanying six children into your stronghold. They intend to send the children back to their own time, to Old Earth."
"And you think I need your help to defeat my stepdaughter, a barbarian, a mok, and bunch of children?" Sabian asks in an incredulous tone.
"Do not underestimate these children," warns Venger, "They may be young, but they are formidable adversaries. Each of them carries an object of power which makes them all very powerful opponents."
"Suppose I agree to this alliance," begins Sabian, "what do I get out of this partnership?"
"You get your stepdaughter back, and eight new slaves," says Venger.
"And what do you get?"
"I get their objects of power," replies Venger, "all six of them."
"Very well," agrees Sabian, "we have a bargain. I'll even let you keep Thundarr's Sunsword. As a sign of good faith."
"Agreed," and with that, Venger and Sabian shake hands.
