Hello guys! I had an idea and I am going to share with all of you. I plan to write all my chapters ahead of time, so you don't have to wait too long.
Now... enjoy this chapter :)
Chapter 7- Surprise!
Cody's P.O.V
I awoke to the sound of sword clanking against each other. I groaned. Where was I? Then I remembered. Liz, the boy and his cronies, and then passing out. I looked down to find myself in a chair, handcuffs attached to my wrists. I struggled, but it was no use.
"I wouldn't try too hard." a voice said, warm breath brushing against my ear.
I looked over to find the same boy that had hit me, his black eyes staring right into my mine. "What do you want with me?" I asked, still struggling.
"I told you before. Information." he said, taking out his diamond sword and admiring it. "What kind of information?" I asked, looking at my surroundings. At least a dozen men were standing around, some talking, others fighting each other, probably practicing.
The boy looked at me with amusement, it filling his black eyes. "First, let me tell you my name, Cody." He said with a smirk. My eyes grew wide with fear. How did he know my name?
He saw my expression and laughed, an evil laugh that sent chills down my spine. "My name is Hunter. Your probably thinking, 'How did he know my name?' We have someone who... likes to give us information. Just like you're going to do" Hunter said, his eyes grinning.
"I won't tell you anything." I growled. A malicious grin spread across his face. I couldn't deal with this dimwit and his ways, so while he was standing in front of me, I spat on the ground in front of him. (If you guys don't know, when you spit on the ground by someone, it means your disgusted)
Hunter's expression turned cold. "I see it won't be easy." He leaned in closer to me and said "We can do this the easy way or the hard way. Your choice." He then walked over to one of his men, his posture high, and whispered in his ear. The man then ran to a room and came out with something.
I couldn't make out what it was because Hunter walked back over to me, blocking my view.
"I want to show you our inside person. So you can understand how we work here." he said, grinning. "I don't tolerate uncooperative people."
The man brought over the figure I saw before, but when I actually saw who it was, I gasped. It was a girl, but this was no ordinary girl. She had the same clear blue eyes, and blond hair.
Hunter smiled and said, "Cody, meet Cadence. Your long lost sister."
Liz's P.O.V
When I had stopped at the village to eat, I noticed that most of the villagers weren't wearing the traditional robes. Some of them had their hands showing, while others didn't. Also, their attitude wasn't the same, and the blacksmiths had piles and piles of weapons by the door, where anyone could pick one up.
"Something's wrong here" I muttered, walking into the bar, munching on a piece of steak. "I agree." said a girly voice. I look over to see a girl, around 18 or 19, with hot pink hair, an electric green jacket, and black jeans. I smiled at the sight of someone different.
She stuck out her hand. "Hi, I'm Nat." she said while shaking my hand.
"I'm Liz. Nice to meet you. Why do you agree with me?" I asked, while she stared at me with her intense gray eyes. I shivered. "The villagers just seem out of place. Like they don't know what to do. It isn't normal." Nat replied, looking around.
"Yeah. Do you think something's wrong?" I said, eyeing a villager who had walked past me.
"A couple nights ago, bandits raided a village not too far from here. They took hostages, and many of the hostages are relatives of these villagers. The bandits then went and looked around some more strays outside the village. The last one they took wasn't too far from here, so I'm sure that the villagers are nervous that they might die. I would too if my family was kidnapped and then I was threatened." Nat explained.
After she was done, something came to mind. "Nat, where was the last place that the bandits went?" She looked at me questionably before answering. "I think it was a cave about half a mile from here." Before I could answer, I fainted.
Kay's P.O.V
I woke up with a start. Sweating, I sat up and thought back to my dream.
Notch's sister? How is that possible? I'm 17! He's almost 30! (I do not know his exact age) It must of been a trick. Or a prank. Getting up, I walked downstairs to see if the pigmen were still they're.
I stopped at the landing when I saw all 4 pigmen laying on the floor, groaning.
"Wh-o wh-a-a" I mumbled, looking at the cuts and bruises on the pigmen's bodies. "Who's there?" I asked quickly, hoping no one was there. Someone stepped out of the shadows and I screamed.
It was the figure from my dream. But it no longer had its hood on. I saw the smiling face of a boy around 18, his brown eyes looking at me with concern, a diamond sword at his side. I almost fainted, but he caught me before I could drop to the floor.
"Whoa don't faint just 'cause I'm here" he said, smiling down at me. "Uh, Wha-a-t are you doing here? Who are you?" I asked, still in his arms.
"I'm Jake, a worker for Notch. I have powers so I can do... other things that other people can't."
"Bu-t-t what are you doing here?" I asked, shaking a little.
"I am here to be your knight in shining armor. Or to save you from these pigmen" he answered, gently putting me back on the ground.
Author's Note [again]: Guys, I want you to know that Nat is NOT going to be a repeating character in this series. Neither is Cadence. Jake, maybe, but Nat and Cadence are just a fill in. Hope you enjoyed!
