Chapter 9: Dustfinger to the Rescue
When Dustfinger saw Basta, his face turned white and he stopped abruptly. Oh, please help me, thought Resa. Oh, please.
But still Dustfinger just stood there staring. Then he did something that surprised even Basta. He very calmly, as expressionless as ever, said, "Basta, would you please let Resa go."
Basta stood there dumbfounded, not paying attention. He accidentally loosened his grip on Resa. That was all she needed to get away. She stomped on his foot, causing him to completely let go of her. She hurried to Dustfinger's side.
He mockingly smiled at Basta and said, "Why thank you, Basta. We'll just be on our way now." And with that, he and Resa disappeared around the corner.
Sorry, I know it was kind of dumb. But I think it turned out OK. Anyway, only one chapter after this!, ilovefi123
