《Sinbad: High King of the Seas》Chapter 5: "Qualities of a King!"
Advertisement
Hina gasps as he awakens in the Dungeon and he looks around shocked. He couldn't believe that a place like this could be as scary as Sinbad and Annalise described it. He gets bit by a bunch of butterflies before he jumps into the water to drown the butterflies. He gets out of the water as he was filled with determination.
Hina fights a crab monster and is almost killed when the kid, his companions and Drakon show up. The kid and his two companions were about to kill Hina when Annalise jumps in the way making the kid gasp in shock. Sinbad attacks to stop the kid's attack when he goes to attack her.
"Bararaq Saiqa!" Sinbad yells as he attacks and the three jump away from Annalise and Hina, "Annalise, what have I told you about running on ahead?"
"Sin." Hina says with a sigh.
"It's been awhile hasn't it Sinbad?" Drakon says, "Annalise, you are looking well."
"If it isn't our friend-enemy from the Parthevia Military." Annalise says.
"Uh, who is this?" Sinbad asks.
"SERIOUSLY YOU GIRLFRIEND KNOWS, BUT YOU DON'T?!" Drakon asks and Sinbad laughs.
"Good to see you too, Drakon." Sinbad says.
"SINBAD! I'm the one who gets to kill you! Remember that!" The boy says.
"But why? Annalise is the one who pissed you off." Sinbad says and the boy growls, "Oh, I get it. Annalise, you have an admirer."
"Eh, he's cute, but he's a little too young." Annalise says with a giggle.
"I don't have a crush on her!" The kid says. He and his companions start attacking the two and Annalise screams when she's thrown to the group. Sinbad goes to use Baal when Drakon shoots him with a weapon and the kid goes to finish Sinbad off. Hina stops the attack and Annalise gets free from the guy and throws him and Hina grabs Sinbad and jumps into the water and Annalise jumps after them. Annalise grabs onto Hina and he swims to safety with the two of them. Sinbad sneezes from the cold and Annalise wrings out her hair.

"Why did you two come for me?" Hina asks, "This is your fault I even have to prove myself!"
"Why are you after the treasure?" Annalise asks.
"You aren't really lacking in the strength department." Sinbad says and Hina's eyes widen as he gasps.
Later, the three arrive in the treasure room where the Djinn, Valefor was already activated. His eyes land on Annalise and whistles.
"What a beautiful babe." Valefor says.
"Uh, are you a fox or a cat?" Annalise asks.
"Who shall be King, or Queen?" Valefor says winking at Annalise.
"Ugh." Annalise says and hides behind Sinbad.
The guys all announce they are in and Valefor looks at Annalise.
"Well?" Valefor asks.
"Nope, I would just like to be able to leave this Dungeon." Annalise says.
"Alright, this is my offspring, mini form. You have to catch him." Valefor says.
"KITTY!" Annalise says shocking everyone as they didn't expect her to have a sudden outburst. She notices everyone looking at her and her cheeks turn pink before she walks out of the way after clearing her throat and returning to a blank expression.
Valefor gives the group a time limit and everyone takes turns trying to get Mini Form as time goes down. Annalise looks at Sinbad and the two nod.
"Hold it! We need to surround Mini Form! I'll stay out of this because I already have a Djinn." Sinbad says. Everyone except Annalise and Sinbad surround Mini Form and they got to grab him and he jumps. That's when Sinbad grabs Mini Form in the air and lands on a landing above them. The group gets angry and Annalise stares up at Sinbad with the others.
"It's not about who's right or wrong. But someone who had to obtain the King's power and I was the chosen one. Why? Because the one who desires the Djinn the most is me." Sinbad says and Annalise's eyes widen at him.

'This is it. This was the reason I felt the need to go to his village that day. I was drawn to him. He can move mountains if he wanted to with just his voice. How did I end up becoming his closest friend though? I'm nothing compared to him. I always have been.' Annalise's thoughts say.
"What were you going to do with this power anyway? I'm going to use this power to create a country that'll change the world." Sinbad says.
"A country?" Drakon asks.
"That changes the world?" Hina asks.
"I have dreamt about it since I left Parthevia. When Annalise and I got to Imuchakk, an allied nation, my goal was defined. I want to create a world where people and countries help one another, not attack one another. I'm going to create a country that connects them all!" Sinbad says.
"You are preaching a false promise!" Drakon says. Sinbad laughs and smiles happily.
"I intend to keep that promise. Sinbad, the boy who captured the first Dungeon that appeared in the world. He will change the world with his new country. How about it? Doesn't it excite you?! I'll make it happen... No matter what! I'll make a country that Annalise will be happy to call home!" Sinbad says and Annalise gasps with everyone else. She holds out her hands and places her hand on her chest. Sinbad had always had time for her. Regardless of what he was doing. She was his best friend. He wanted her to be happy. Annalise stares up at him as her heart beats quickly. Annalise looks up and she gasps as she sees the strange butterfly creature again.
"What's happening?" The long arm guy, Vittel asks.
'Sinbad's passion is igniting my own passion.' Hina's thoughts say. Annalise looks at everyone then back at Sinbad. Her eyes widen as she suddenly sees a shadow of an older Sinbad appear and she blinks confused as she wonders if she really saw it.
"I ask all of you, create that country with me!" Sinbad says.
'I want to follow this man! I have to!' Hina's thoughts say.
'Sin... You can ignite the flames of hope in everyone's hearts with just your eyes and your words.' Annalise's thoughts say.
"I'll need your help to make this work! Talented merchants, diplomats, and finally, spies. All those willing, join me on this adventure to change the world!" Sinbad says.
'This is the King's Candidate?' Drakon's thoughts ask.
"There is still ways to go before my dream comes true. I want even more power, treasure and support that the world has to offer. Annalise is my best friend and I want to share it all with her and I know she will remain by my side. Rally around me and let's get started!" Sinbad says.
"You aren't joking by letting us join you, are you?" Vittel asks.
"Of course, not." Sinbad says and jumps down and Annalise walks over to him with a small smile. The kid agrees then attacks Sinbad and laughs.
"Idiot! What makes you think I'd ever consider becoming one of your lapdogs?" The kid asks.
"You wouldn't be his lapdog! You'd be a treasured ally, a friend!" Annalise says and the kid looks at her with shocked eyes. His angered shocked eyes soften as he looks at Sinbad and Annalise moments before weird ooze starts coming from his eyes, mouth and nose. Vittel and the other guy also start getting it and Sinbad makes Annalise step back as the three merge into one giant monster.
"They turned into a monster!" Annalise says. Drakon goes to shoot the kid and Sinbad stops him.
"What are you doing?" Drakon asks.
"They are my treasured comrades!" Sinbad says.
