Sorry Thal's I couldn't help it... I caved. You win. I lose.I updated before lent was over. But on the bright side, the others get a new story.
The defenders that day had acted like their normal selves, irritable towards each other. 7 of the eight defenders were eating was in his lab and Gildar was doing his hair. Knightriss was getting annoyed. Shaiden was drinking her tea and was thinking about something else. Wrong move.
"SHAIDEN!" Knightriss suddenly screamed causing the young ninja to jump and spill a bit of her tea. "Go get your brother and the viking!"
The ninja nodded and got her brother. She then went down the red team corridor. She coughed when she entered the hall. It smelled strange. Probably hair snuck right behind Gildar's door and with a confident flip of the ponytail, she yelled.
"GILDAR WE'RE OUT ON THE MOAT TODAY! GET OUT HERE!" She smirked with she heard a small scream and a brush clatter. Then she heard a loud huff of breath and out came the viking.
"Shaiden!" He looked around and couldn't find the young girl. He turned around to find her right behind him smiling. He jumped and huffed his breath again.
"You know I hate it when you do that! It almost made my hair stick up. Now we're out on the-...what is that smell?" He asked cutting himself off suddenly. Shaiden shrugged, rolled her eyes and walked out, but not before saying, "5 minutes because Knightriss is on edge today."
The attackers were acting odd. That's the only way to describe it. They kept smiling at the defenders which confused them, and even one told Shaiden to just wait to see what they had in store. Later that night the smell had flooded the entire castle, causing everyone to cough.
"Do you think they filled the castle with some sort of gas?" Croc asked.
"No, but if they were smart they would." Everyone glared at Kook for him saying this. "What they would be!"
Thorne rolled his eyes at this. Shaiden soon stood from the table and left the room. Suddenly Tinkor came running into the dining room where the rest of the Defender's were.
"Fire! Everybody needs to leave! That's what the smell was! C'mon let's go!" He yelled through a panicky voice.
Everyone stood up immediately and ran for the doors and left.
They saw the smoke and ran even farther. Each one coughing and breathing heavily they realized what had happened. Those evil little twerps set the only place they found comfort and security on fire. Thorne's face was flushed with is until Knightriss called roll.
"Shaiden? Shaiden! Once more, Shaiden!" Knightriss heard no answer. Everyone looked around with wide eyes. Thorne's eyes instantly widened as his jaws dropped and his face paled. Another new discovery was made. She was not the only one missing, Gildar was too.
Shaiden was in the zone while she was training. She would have stayed in it if she hadn't heard a cry for help. It came from Gildar's room. She sprinted over when she realized how impossibly hot it was. She tried to open his door but it was locked. No matter how hard she tried the door would not open. Not until she kicked it. It flew faster than Kook on taco day at the castle. She saw Gildar trapped beneath his biggest mirror. Oh the irony. She pulled the mirror off of him and pulled him up. He thanked her and ran out the door, accidentally shutting it. This causes it to be impossible to kick from the inside where she was trapped.
I apologize for the shortness, but this'll be my last update for a little while.
