Retaliation

By FallenGatekeeper

"Deadlox, we're almost there! I've got the boats!" Sky called as they leaped towards the ocean.

The Warden was still inside and hadn't discovered their escape. They knew this because the prison bells weren't ringing.

"YES! FREEDOM!" Sky shouted at the top of his lungs as he placed his boat and began paddling away with Deadlox slightly behind.

The horizon began to turn a multitude of colors and then the sun perked up. The prison bells began to sound and the duo began laughing and cheering. Neither one noticed that the water was becoming stained with a black hue. The waves began to pick up.

"Woah, Sky, something hit my boat. Do you see anything?" Deadlox asked before he felt something hard against the wooden planks below.

"No, the water's too dark. Wait, no I see-!" Sky began before the boat splintered knocking Deadlox into the frigid water.

"Sky help! Something has my ankle!" Deadlox cried out as he swam towards Sky's nearing boat.

Sky dropped his paddles and reached for his friend. Through his black shades he could see the tentacle wrapped around Deadlox ankles. Squid Army. He thought bitterly before he almost was in reach.

Deadlox was pulled under harshly. Sky cried out as he watched helplessly as the squid stole his friend. They had no weapons or any way to fight. He pulled out his walkie-talkie.

"Guys, Deadlox has been taken by the Squid Army." He announced before leaving the device on his boat. He dived into the water after him.
