Chapter 3

"So who are you then?" asked the fox that they had walked over to.

"Hi, do you know where to find Bonnie Anne?" asked Horace

"Well she was over there," said the fox pointing to the bridge the goes from the fortress to the troggie's ground "but now she moved to somewhere else."

"Welllll where did she go?" asked Horace.

"Right where I'm standing because I'm Bonnie Anne." said Anne

"Well sorry for not knowing but we need your help to find Fin." said Horace.

"Well if you're going to fight Fin you'll need to defeat some of the troggies and cuttroaths." said Anne

"We'll do it." said Horace

"Okay, said Anne "report back to me when you're done."

Horace and Subodai walked along the trail, killing the troggies and cutthroaths they met farther up the trail. But there was one battle they couldn't win.

"*cough*We can't take much more of this." said Subodai, not noticing the shadows hidden behind the trees.

"Yes we can, let's keep figh-." Horace started to say but was stabbed in back.

"CAPTAIN!" yelled Subodai before he started running towards him but was stabbed before he could get to him.

The last thing Horace saw before he passed out was Subodai fall to the ground and a puff of smoke.

Meanwhile on Skull Mountain

Two unknown pirates were fighting off the last of the cutthroaths making sure none of them got to Horace and Subodai.

"Let's get them get the bunk," said one of them "they'll be safe there."

"Okay," said the other one.

When Horace and Subodai woke up they realized they were in one of the bunk houses in Avery's court.

"FRANK HE'S WAKING UP" yelled one of the two pirates.

"Really. Okay Hank I'll be right there." said the pirate whose name was Frank.

"Who are you two?" asked Horace.

"Well I'm Hank and this is Frank." said Hank.

"Hello Horace." said Frank.

"Here let's go to the Kraken Skulls and get you a meal." said Hank.

As they walked through Avery's Court and down towards the tavern they saw a rat run out the door with a piece of paper in its hand. As they walked into the tavern they saw the place was a mess. They went over to the barkeeper and asked him what had happened.

"It was terri-," began the barkeeper who stopped mid sentence "umm Hank, who is this?"

"Pete this is Horace. Horace this is Pete." said Hank.

"Horace, as in Horace Ashburn," began Pete "ohh, thank the heavens he's alive."

"UHH what's going on?" asked Horace.

"Oh didn't they tell you, they're your brothers." said Pete.
