Chapter 6
The earth began to shake.
Quickly, as a reflex, Miley hugged herself to Jake so they wouldn't get separated from each other.
"AHH!" they both screamed as the force of the earthquake brung them down to ground.
They release from the hugged and look at their surroundings. The black spot covered half the sky. The other half of the sky was dark gray so it looked like a hurricane was about to hit. The wind was blowing strong. Miley grabbed on to Jake's hand as the earth began to tremble yet again.
"I think we are too late," Miley says loudly over the rumbling earth.
"Me too," Jake says equally as loud.
Armies of skeletons were marching towards them with swords at hand. They were coming by the thousands.
"Miley, I want you to know that-," Jake began, but was cut short because those armies of skeletons were now surrounding them.
"That what Jake?" Miley asked.
"That-," he said while two skeletons came and each grabbed on to one his arms. "That I love you!" Jake yelled as the skeletons dragged him way with more to follow.
"I love you too Jake," Miley cried.
She tried to take his hand, but as soon as she touched it, a sword was pointing at her, inches away from her face. They skeletons continued to dragged Jake forward. Miley was frozen in fear as the skeleton pointed the sword at her. Tears pored from her face while she watched Jake be taken away from her and she could not do anything about it. When she couldn't see him anymore, the skeleton lowered its sword. One of them took Miley's newly possessed bag way from her, only but one cookie spilled out. Luckily, the skeletons didn't notice. Miley quickly put it in her pocket.
"You are coming this way," a skeleton said. Miley was a bit shocked because none of them have said anything before. It seemed that the few minutes that Jake has been gone; the world had been in mute.
She just nodded silently and followed the group. She knew if she didn't listen to them, they could slather her in a second. They took her to a large old looking building. Turns out that it was a dungeon. They threw her in one of the cells and locked it. Then they all left they building, leaving Miley alone. The cells were made of cement brick. There was a small window in the cell, but it had metal bars, just like it's entrance. There was a dog-like zombie creature patrolling the hall. The zombie dog had a large ring in its mouth. Keys were hanging on the ring. Miley remember that she still had that cookie in her pocket. She pulled it out and broke it in half. She put half back in her pocket and stuck her hand out between the bars and waved the cookie around to get the dog's attention.
"Good dog," Miley called as the dog trotted down the hall. It dropped the keys and grabbed the cookie. Miley quickly grabbed the key set and pulled her hand back in cell. When she found her cell's key, she locked the cell and carefully looked around. There weren't any skeletons, so she quietly snuck out.
"Ouch!" Jake yelled as skeletons threw him in a cell identical to Miley's and locked it. They left Jake locked in his cell alone. The skeletons marched out of the dungeon, going somewhere else.
Miley crawled into a crack in earth. It was about 4 feet deep and wide enough for her to fit in. She was hidden from the skeletons that were all marching into a building between the two dungeons. As soon as all skeletons were in the building, she got out of the crack and ran towards the other dungeon, which she was guessing was the one Jake was in.
