Chapter 1 - A Strange World

~Somewhere on Hak~

[Lucas]

I woke up feeling extremely exhausted and in extreme bodily pain all over. The ground under me was all rubbles; aftermath of destruction, I had no idea where I was, what had happened or even who I was?

As I tried to gather my memory and pick myself up from the ground, a flash of memory hit me.

~On Earth: Tokyo, Japan~

[Flashback]

"You guys do have a beautiful kid" a nice lady said as she passed two good looking guys walking with a young girl eating ice cream between them.

"She is not our..."

"We are not…"

Both Lucas and Han tried to explain at once, as they have been trying with little luck to explain to every person they had passed that thought that the little girl of three, Lilly, who was with them, was their daughter, and that they are a couple. They are not. For one they are both guys and neither is gay.

"Alright, that's it, we have to get this girl to her family" Lucas said as he started the Hummer Jeep, he had gotten last year. He is the rich one of the pair you see.

"Right, because you have suddenly discovered how we can get her family" Han sarcastically stated.

"Shut up" Lucas replied

~Elsewhere on Hak~

"Rise to your feet, scoundrel!" a huge man yelled as he raised a leather whip onto the back of Han who yelled as he crawled away from the man and his whip. Han rolled onto his back, feeling pain all over him, what the hell happened and where was he?"

"Get up, bitch! Do I have to drag you up?!" the man yelled again about to raise his whip, but that wasn't what Han was bothered about, who does this nasty hulk of a guy think he is to call him a bitch, he is a full-grown man just like him, although not as burly.

The whip was about to land across him, but it didn't, even though he waited, expecting it. Another huge figure blocked the sun and light and stopped the whip. Han tried to raise himself up a bit from the ground to behold his hero in shining gold armor. Gold armor? Who the heck still wears full body armor in the twenty first century? Just where the heck am I?

"Leave her to me" the hero in golden armor said. Now that Han got a better look at the man, he was a real-life Adonis, sculptured to perfection and at least seven foot tall.

"But Commander, the bitch has refused to work"

"I said leave her to me"

Han began looking around for the female they were talking about until the hero dude stretched his arm to him to help him off the ground saying, "Forgive my man, he has no idea how to treat a lady"

What? How could they have mistaken him for a lady? They must be crazy he is obviously a man

With shock and confusion on his features he looked down at his body and the sight he saw caused him to scream, and as he did that he sounded nothing like a man.

Lucas coughed out dust as he finally got himself off the ground, looking around to survey his surroundings. The land around was full of debris, red dust, crumbled walls, it seems there was once some structure on this waste land that is now destroyed. The more he looked the more he realized he was miles from home as this was definitely not Tokyo. If he could even say he was still on earth, he wasn't sure.

[Han]

Han was still in shock two hours later when he had been carried away from the quarry mines cleaned and now seated in the servant quarters of the house of the man in gold armor, who just happened to be someone of great influence this part of the world, if the gold finishing of his house and the massive hosts he commanded was anything to go by.

"I am a woman" he said still not believing it, as he looked down at the twin protruding mounds on his chest.

Another maid passing with fresh beddings heard Han's statement of the obvious and looked at him weirdly, wondering what was wrong with the new lady brought in.

"You there!" an elderly thin tall woman dressed in pressed high-collared dull black gown with grey hair severely tied back one would think she had no hair from the front, called out to the maid that was staring weirdly at Han, "Does the lord pay you to hang around? Get back to work!"

The maid nodded, shaking as she scampered out to get back to her duties

"And you, why are you seated in the corner like some reject? Go put on your dress and get to work!" the matron woman yelled in command to Han who began shaking like the maid who had earlier scampered away. He had no idea where he truly is, but it seems other than the golden armor lord that brought him in, this woman is the one in charge here.

"And why are you still there, girl?" the matron asked when he was yet to move from his spot.

"I… I" Han stuttered, his voice shaky. Steadying himself and trying to sound more like himself than the scared girl he is, he tried speaking again, "I have no maid's dress to put on and neither do I have any assigned chores, ma'am"

"What?" the matron questioned before realization hit her, "Oh, I see, you are the new girl the lord brought in today, from the quarry"

Han nodded, he believed that was his story.

"What are you called, girl?"

"Ha— "He blurted then stopped midway. Here, wherever this place is, he is a woman for some reason and until he figures out what is going on perhaps it is best not to throw his actual name around, and besides he is a girl now.

"Do go on, child, I don't have all day" the matron urged impatiently

"Hanna. I am called Hanna, ma'am" he did an inward face palming as the best his dumb brain could come up with was Hanna, of all names it had to be the one just two letters from his real name.

"Alright, come with me" the matron said and began walking away without checking if Han was following.
