El Hazard: The Magnificent Sequel 
Chapter Two 
 
 
Mountain Fuji is a national landmark about 50 miles 
from Tokyo. Palnus Relrye woke up by the lower slopes 
of Mountain Fuji. Afura Mann who 
was still unconscious was lying a short distance 
away.... 
 
*A thin cool breeze* Afura Mann's eyes blinked open. 
*It feels like we're high up* Afura thought lazily. 
*OH wait....we are high up....the eye of god...Wait a 
second* Trees, rocks, shrubs, grass...a mountain?* 
"Trees, I've never seen trees like this before,"she 
whispered . 
There are no trees on the Eye of God. Wanting to get 
up but completely exhausted, Afura continued to lay 
there, and quietly pondered what was going on. 
*I must be dead* She decided finally. *Well there was 
a big flash of light, no tunnel, but hey I don't mind. 
I'm dead. I wonder if they'll miss me* Afura sat up 
slowly and shook her head. 
*No feeling of disembodiment, not what I expected at 
all, I wonder if there's a library around here...* 
Afura looked to her left and saw Palnus looking off in 
the distance. 
*Nooooo! This can't be heaven!! I must be in hell!!! 
Why me, check that, WHY HIM?? I knew I should have 
given more to charities! Okay 
now you're acting weird. Okay...breathe, rational 
thought* 
Afura laid down again. 
"Just where are we anyway?" 
 
Palnus had rubbed his eyes to make sure he was seeing 
things straight. 
"Where the heck am I?"he wondered. 
One of the last things he was able to remember was 
travelling to the Eye of God with his annoying sister, 
Alielle. Now he was lost in a completely alien 
environment. 
Palnus looked off into the distance to realize that he 
was on the slopes of some mountain. He stood there for 
a minute or two, taking in the sensation of the 
surroundings of this new land. 
Palnus turned to hear someone groaning behind him. 
Why, it was Afura Mann! 
"Afura, I didn't know that you made it here as well! I 
thought I was all alone! Hey, don't look at me like 
that, we're on a beautiful mountain. Why, it's sort of 
romantic up here, don't you think?" 
Afura blinked and the expression on her face seemed to 
tell him that she wasn't pleased to have him for 
company. 
 
********************* 
After the crazy turn of events that happened atop the 
Eye of God, Katsuhiko Jinnai awoke to find himself in 
some sort of abandoned 
mine. Looking around, he saw what was left of his 
Bugrom army standing about 10 feet away. 
"Hmmm...I wonder where Groucho is and Diva? Maybe they 
are outside somewhere." 
Walking a short distance, Jinnai looked around and 
couldn't believe his eyes. 
"Wait a second, I'm back in Japan. The others must be 
here as well. Everyone who was on top of the Eye of 
God. I need to think of 
something...something really quick." 
 
************************************** 
Tokyo Disneyland was a major tourist attraction. Even 
at night, there were many people around. Alielle 
Relrye woke up and saw a lot of people everywhere. She 
looked carefully and in the distance, she 
saw Nanami Jinnai and Kauru Taurus walking farther and 
farther away. They apparently hadn't noticed her. 
"Wait!" 
However, they had already disappeared, swallowed by 
the sea of people....... 
 
********************************** 
Shinjuku! The place to be! Miz was looking bewildered 
and was hanging on to the arm of her husband, 
Masamichi Fujisawa who apprently liked the 
surroundings. 
"Masamichi! Stop staring at those posters! What's the 
matter--aren't I good enough for you?" she dragged him 
away from the striptease posters, which he wasn't 
really looking at anyway, and attempted to steer 
him to safety. Red latterns bobbed in front of little 
traditionally shuttered shops, and these she avoided 
too. 
"The people coming out 
of here are drunk! Masamichi! You're not going in 
there! We have to find the others!" 
Teenagers in bright jackets kept trying to offer her 
packets of tissue, but Miz kept pushing them away. "I 
don't need any! I don't have a cold! Leave us alone!" 
At last she managed to pull him into an open square 
where the neon lights blazed down from tall 
skyscrapers and loudspeakers boomed out 
advertisements. On the ALTA building behind them, a 
giant television blared and flickered, hypnotizing the 
crowd below. 
Miz sighed. "Oh Masamichi, I've never seen so many 
people! How are we ever going to find the others?" 
She turned and saw that he wasn't paying attention to 
her. There was a beer commercial on the big TV 
screen..... 
 
************************ 
Anime is big business in Japan. Just ask the thousands 
of fans who 
have now thronged the Anime Convention Hall in Tokyo. 
A Bugrom named Groucho was shaking his head after 
waking up in the gardens outside the Anime Convention. 
A group of fans dressed as characters from 
'Moldiver' walked past him and remarked,"That's a 
strange costume. Wonder which anime he's from?" 
Groucho could hardly believe his eyes. Where was he? 
Was he dead? Was he at the point where several 
dimensions had collided? People of all kinds were 
around him. Some of them seemed more or less human. He 
saw several boys wearing uniforms similar to those 
Jinnai usually would wear. A lot of people were 
talking and staring at him. Surprisingly, he 
understood what they were saying..... 
 
******************************* 
A short distance in the suburbs of Tokyo stood an old 
but decent Shinto shrine. 
Sweep. Sweep. Sweep. Sweep. 
Shayla Shayla woke up to see an old Shinto Priestess 
sweep the floor beside her... 
 
******************************* 
Yokohama harbor is the busy port of Tokyo. There are 
usually a lot of ships which carry on a lot of 
import-export business. A mysterious hooded figure, 
Kalia and several Phantom Tribesmen suddenly appear in 
 a burst of light. 
The hooded figure looked around Yokohama harbor. He 
was tall and he removed his hood to reveal a handsome 
face that seemed to have a strange touch of evil. 
He was the half-brother of Galus. His mother was a 
powerful sorceress and he had inherited his skills 
from her. Since young, he had always looked up to 
Galus, whom he believed would liberate the Phantom 
Tribe from the oppressive Roshtarians and the menacing 
Bugrom. 
He hated the Three Priestesses for killing Kiriya, 
whom he was engaged to marry, at the Hot Springs. He 
hated Katsuhiko Jinnai for foiling Galus' plans at the 
Eye of God and he hated Nanami and Makoto for the same 
reasons. He also hated the demon goddess, Ifurita, for 
firing the lethal blow to Galus. 
The day before, he had a major argument with Nahato as 
to what they plans should be. He admired Nahato's 
ambitions but thought Nahato was 'too soft' in his 
approach. 
Kalia said,"You realize that we are no longer in El 
Hazard?" He replied, 
"I sense that the people we are looking for are in 
this world. Very soon, we will find them and when I 
find them, I will...." 
Kalia interrupted. "Seems like the humans in this 
world are weak. They have no special powers." 
"We could be very powerful with no one to oppose us," 
he smirked. 
 
(Author's notes: Remember when 
 the 4 Earthlings crossed dimensions to El Hazard, 
they were able to 
 speak and understand the El Hazardian languages so I 
thought it would 
 make sense for the El Hazardians to acquire the 
ability to speak and 
 understand Earth languages when they crossed the 
dimension.) 
 
 
Ifurita and Makoto were walking together in a park in 
the outskirts of Tokyo. It had been a pleasant day and 
a nice breeze was blowing. 
It seemed like nothing could go wrong today. 
A strange light appeared in front of them. Ifurita 
blinked in surprise. Makoto was even more surprised 
when a cat ran towards him. 
"Ura! But how?" 
A short distance away was Diva who was craddling her 
baby. She seemed astounded. She looked around in 
disbelief. A moment earlier, she had 
been on the Eye of God, but now she stood in some 
strange world. Lord Jinnai was nowhere to be seen, nor 
the Bugrom warriors, not even the Roshtarians who had 
been following her. She was surprised to see Makoto 
and Ifurita. 
It was all too much. Diva took a step back fearing for 
her sanity. Then she realized something that brought 
her hope back. She could understand what Makoto was 
saying! 
Yes, Mizuhara's words were as clear as the demon 
goddess' now! Diva stood up straight, and chanced that 
he could understand her. 
"Makoto Mizuhara! What trick have you used to bring us 
here, and what have you done with my Lord Jinnai? I, 
Diva, Queen of the Bugrom Empire, 
demand an answer!" 
Ura crawled towards Diva. "Diva afraid. Diva no need 
to be afraid. Makoto take care of everyone. Nyaaa!" 
Ifurita walked towards Diva and said,"I remember you. 
You were with Katsuhiko Jinnai, right?" 
Diva stared at Ifurita and the others as the soft hum 
from the insects in the surroundings soothed her like 
a lullaby. The great cat was rubbing up against her 
leg, purring. She wanted to believe them. She was 
tired 
of running. And their faces were so kind. 
She felt very tired though and her legs began to give 
way under the weight of her own body.... 
 
 
Makoto had to carry Diva to his car while Ifurita 
cradled. While 
driving, Ifurita decided that she would let Diva and 
her daughter stay at her apartment for the time being 
while Makoto would take care of Ura 
in his apartment... 
 
Diva was recovering in the sofa of Ifurita's living 
room. Ifurita was pouring some tea for her. Diva 
sighed and reached for one of the white roses in a 
vase by the open window. A gift from Makoto, Ifurita 
said. 
The flowers symbolized purity. So many flowers and 
hidden meanings, thought Diva. Do any of them 
symbolize hope? 
As she lifted a rose to catch its fragrance, she heard 
a soft, whispering voice. "Why have you left the hive, 
my Mother?" 
She blinked and drew back. Instinctively, she looked 
at Inari, but the baby was still cooing happily on the 
floor. Besides, Inari's mind was not developed enough 
for thought transfer. Diva shook her head. It had been 
a bitter blow to discover that her mental link with 
the Bugrom had vanished since coming to this 
world--but what was that voice? 
"Your scent is stonger than ever, my Mother. Stronger 
than the scent of this rose. What has happened?" 
Then she looked down at the rose, and into the 
shimmery, compound eyes of a honeybee. 
Diva's heart beat faster. She knew these creatures on 
El Hazard but could not speak to them. Yet here, 
somehow, there was a link, and a strong one at that. 
Diva took a deep breathe and martialled her thoughts. 
"I seek those who have strayed from the hive,"she 
answered silently. 
"I need you to find them." 
"Whom would you have me seek, my Mother?" 
"Others like us, very large, who walk upon the ground, 
and a human male who is with them. They must be found, 
for the sake of the hive." 
The bee's answer came, soft as falling petals. "I will 
tell my brothers and sisters. I go." And it buzzed out 
of the window.
