Excerpt:

A blinding flash of light.

Gabe awoke with a start. Sitting bolt upright, she gasped and looked around. She was panting. Her heart was pounding in her chest. What was going on? Where was she?

Taking in her surroundings, she realized that she was in a room that looked like a scene from a historical television drama, with wooden floor, furniture carefully designed with intricate carvings, and a boy dressed in robes lying on a big, grand bed, asleep. Where on earth was she? Wait, was she even on earth? The last thing she remembered was getting knocked down by the car, and she thought she was dead.

Gabe looked down at herself. Her clothes were stained with her blood, but standing up and testing her legs gingerly, flexing her fingers, she realized that she felt fine. She must be dead. She must be in heaven. But if she was dead, why could she feel her heart pounding?

Time Swap

By now, Togon was really desperate. It was already nearing nightfall and he was having a really hard time getting people to take him seriously. He was so desperate that he was even willing to go nearer to the monstrous zooming objects just to find more people.


Togon had already tried asking for directions a few times, but everyone he asked eyed him strangely, like he was crazy, and then left as quickly as they could.


He had stumbled into a group of teenage girls, who were chattering and laughing loudly.


"How do I get to the palace?" He had asked them in a regal manner, sitting high up on his horse, his back ramrod straight.


"I have no idea, your Majesty," one of them had replied, curtsying.


Finally, he had thought, he might have some luck when at least someone recognized him as a prince, not a crazy guy on a horse.


However the girls had only burst out laughing, and Togon realized with disappointment that they were just joking.


They then asked if they could take a "picture" with him, whatever that was.


"Will this picture help me get back to the palace?" Togon had asked.


"Yes, Your Majesty!" They replied, giggling.


So Togon agreed, and one of them whipped out a rectangular object, and he saw his own face in it! Togon was so shocked that he almost fell off his horse.


After that, they tried to leave, without answering his question.


"Wait, you haven't told me how to get to the palace yet!" Togon called after them.


They only giggled some more before leaving him by himself.


"That guy's such a joker," one of the girls giggled after they were a distance from Togon.


"He's so handsome, I'm so glad he agreed to let us take a picture!" another girl squealed.


Soon, his pictures were uploaded on social media, with the captions: "Spotted this gorgeous prince along Farfield Lane today!"


Within moments, it was circulated all over social media, which was how the police were alerted of his location.


Soon, a particularly eye catching big monster pulled up beside him, with lights flashing above it, and producing an unbearably loud wailing noise.


"Police! Stop right there, young man!" A man stuck his head out through a hole and yelled from inside the monster.


"Aaahhh!!! Gallop away, horsey!" Togon shrieked.


However, the horse unfortunately had to choose this critical timing to disobey him, and began prancing about like a raging bull. It was trying to buck him off!


"No! Stop!" Togon clung on as tightly as he could, but it was difficult, especially as he was riding bareback and did not have a saddle.


Togon began to slide off, and landed on the hard pavement with a bump. The horse galloped away, towards the direction they came from.


"Noooo!! You betrayer!" Togon yelled after the horse.


People began getting out from the monster and rushing towards him. One of them clicked a hard metallic object around Togon's wrist. Togon was too tired to resist.


The people bundled him towards the scary monster. Togon figured that the monster would not do any harm to him as all those people got in and out of it without any incident.


Soon, Togon was inside the monster, and it began moving.


Togon clung on to his seat so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He realized that he could actually see outside the monster through a transparent film of material, just like the material from the water skin he discovered back in the palace!


"Wow!" Togon gasped, fascinated as he watched the surroundings outside flash past in a blur. Togon felt like he was in a fast moving carriage that did not bump about at all, and instead moved so smoothly that the only way he could tell he was moving was by looking outside.


After awhile, Togon found himself nodding off. He soon fell asleep inside the monster.
