Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters. If I did, well, this story would actually been published. But it's not.
This story will alternate between what's going on with Lina, Doon, and Lizzie. Maybe other characters as the story continues. Idk.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Me: Hello again! If you've read this far, then that means either you're mentally retarded, you were only curious to see what other girl would fall for Doon, or you're actually enjoying the story.
Lina: My guess is the second one!
Doon: …I would have to go with…idk…the third one?
Me: aaaawwwww…*Blush*
Lina: Hey! What's in this chapter? Please tell me there is more Fluffiness!*eyeing Doon and slowly inching toward him*
Me: Maybe…*Pulls out small remote and pushes top button*
Lina:*Leaning in to kiss Doon* OOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!*Jumps up in pain*
Doon: Thank you.
Me: No problem. It's kinda fun. Now on with the story!
Chapter two- Pain and planning
Lina picked up the pace a little when she neared the bottom.
"Lina, dear, please slow down just a little. We don't have your energy!" Dr. Hester exclaimed, panting next to Doon's father. She looked back and saw Lizzie leading the tired pack of people make their way slowly down the end of the slope.
"Hurry, we're almost in the City. We just have to-"Lina stopped short as she remembered what they had to do. She wished Doon were here to help her get over that dreaded bridge. Those two measly planks that stood over those who died and were thrown into the trench. Lina gulped.
"What was that Lina? I couldn't hear what you said." Lizzie called from behind. Lina stopped. She had reached it. Those two planks. She was scared out of her wits. "Okay, we just have to make it over these planks. Then we will be in the City." Lina said.
She took a deep breath, looked straight ahead, and thought only two things. Don't look down. You have to save Doon. Don't look down. You have to save Doon. Slowly, she made her way across the bridge. "Come on!" Lina called. "Just don't look down and everything will be okay."
Lizzie was just starting to take her second step when she heard Lina say that. And of course, because she said that, Lizzie just had to look down. We all know what she saw. All those bones just barely visible with small shadows quickly darting over them. Rats. Bugs. And who knows what else. Even though she saw this, Lizzie had a stronger stomach to these things than Lina so she gulped and pressed forward. For Doon and Lina, she thought.
Soon everyone was across the bridge. As soon as Lina saw that the last person had made it over, she set out at top speed towards the City. "Hurry! We don't know what kind of torture they could be putting him through!" Lina called behind. Everyone rushed along to catch up with her (even if nobody could). She counted the doors and tried to follow the pulsing light of the giant fire in the middle of the city.
Eventually she came across Doon's pack that he had dropped when he was captured. She took hold of it and stuffed it in her own pack. She rushed back to the group as they followed somewhat slowly behind her.
"Okay everybody. We have to be quiet now, or they will take us and put us in Doon's position." Lina explained.
Going to Doon…
Doon had started to head in the direction tat Trogg had pointed out keeping his distance from Kanza as he did so.
"Doom! Get over here! You think I'm stupid enough to let you go over there?" Doon stayed silent." Well, I'm not. You are such a stupid boy." Trogg chuckled to himself. He turned his back on Doon.
"I do think you are a little stupid." Doon said under his breath so no one could hear. "What was that?" Trogg said in a dangerous tone."
"Nothing. I said nothing." Doon said a little too quickly. "You little liar!" Trogg said terrifyingly and struck Doon across the face.
"AAAAAHHHHH!!!!" Doon yelled cringing to the ground holding his face. Tears blazed in his eyes.
Back to Lina and Lizzie…
"…and then Doon will be safe. Got that everybody? And if anything goes wrong, then split up. The only way of communication they have is their voices so if we split up and go in different directions; they won't be able to catch us all. "Lina explained. The group nodded and started to go back to surround the square. That's when they heard a loud yell; clearly Doon's. Lina heard Doon's father gasp and start muttering to himself. Lina went the other way and got into position.
Me: Sorry. That was a little long. And btw, when ____ appears, that's when the chapter begins or ends. When you see ~~~~~ that's when the scene is changing.
Doon: Coolio.
Lina: yeah…Happy!
Me: what is?
Lina: I don't know.
Doon: (Rolls his eyes) Lina you are so weird.
Lina: Thank you! You know…it's good to be weird. (Weird smile on her face)
Doon: (backing away from her) yeah…
Me: Don't make me Lina.
Lina: Don't make you do what?
Me: (Whips out remote and smiles evilly)
Lina: uh-oh
Me: Prepare for pain! (I press top button laughing maniacally)
Doon and Me: (while watching Lina being shocked in blue light)…
Doon: this is kind of fun to watch…
Me: yeah…well! Pleeze review! And don't forget the mini convos! (Doon walks away in one direction and I walk away in the other while Lina is still being shocked in blue light)
