Melody and Madoka had made it up the towers spiral stairs and now stood outside of the princesses room. Madoka was visually more on edge than Melody, who stood confidently. "Melody, do you really think she'll come with is?" Madoka whispered.

"Who knows, all we can do is try. And if she refuses we'll just have to take her by force." Melody reached to turn the doors handle.

"Wait! Who said we were going to kidnap a princess!?" Madoka's voice rose above a whisper.

Melody hushed her. "Listen Madoka, I don't like the idea as much as you do, but if we have the princess the queen will have no choice but to give into our demands." Madoka was about to speak again but Melody pulled the door open. Melody steeped in, failing to notice Hiro emerge from the shadows where he hid "Prin-" She felt the guard she knew as Hiroshi tackle her from behind.

"Get out of here Calypto!" he shouted while trying to pin Melody down, which was rather hard being that Melody did everything she could to get him off. Calypto ran past the two and out the room.

"Don't let her get away Madoka!" Madoka ran after her, leaving melody and Hiro alone. I have to make this quick so I can go after the other girl and Calypto Hiro raised a fist to strike at Melody, but he hesitated to actually hit her. She noticed his hesitation and took it as an opportunity to jam her foot into his abdomen. Hiro grunted and found himself pushed off of her. Melody pushed herself up and went to grab her flame sword from her belt, but it wasn't there.

Of course it wasn't there because when she was captured the queen had personally taken her sword gave her, gave a speech of how long she had waited to take the The Flaming Sun Goddess from her. She spewed some words about Melody's parents and left. Melody found the whole thing was pointless at the time. She hadn't realized then that she wouldn't get her father's sword back so easily.

So instead Melody grabbed one of the three old throwing knives she had found earlier. They were kind of rusted from age, but melody would have to make due. She aimed for Hiro whileshe rose to his feet catching his breath. He hadn't had a chance to look up before he felt the blade stick into his shoulder. Hiro shouted in pain, he almost fell forward onto his knee but keep an unsteady balance. He had enough time to look at his wound before Melody bolted out of the room.

Frieda hadn't come up with anything while exploring the castle. All she had really found was a family of mice in the library and selves of useless books. She had found the library in hopes of finding something maybe important or even a map of the place, perhaps she also hoped for some kind of sign that could get her out of the underground. The worse part of the place was the grumbling ceilings that seemed to want to fall on her.

She left the hallway and began to walk down the hall. The walls were made of the same dark stone as the floors were and there was a old, dusty carpet running down the hall. Frieda wondered why it was there since none of the other halls had it. The hall finally led her to a set of large dark oak doors. The wooden doors had a grand design etched in which gave a hint that the room probably was important. It took Frieda a moment of using all her strength to pull one of them open. She steeped in and looked around.

It was a large room with several large windows that gave very little light. The walls had been decorated with dark faded blue wallpaper with a white trim, it was torn and falling off by now; showing dark stone underneath. The floor was in better shape. The wood was dusty and caving in at some places though. A large bed was more towards the corner of the large area. There was a lot of bookshelves lining the walls on the far right, but almost all the books were on the floor. Besides other little things such as tables and papers scattered about the room was, more so used to be, fit for a king.

There was a fireplace parallel of the doors. It was an ordinary looking one, besides aoke pieces were chipping off. There was a nest of old blankets placed in front of it, something was placed in it. Though the weird part of the whole thing was that a fire was light and by the looks of the wood it hadn't been set aflame that long ago. Frieda walking closer the the blankets to inspect the object. But before she could decide on what it could be a male's voice spoke up.

"What do you think you're doing?"

The boy stepped into the room. his white-silver hair was combed downwards like a v shape and a strange red chinese dragon spiral print was present on his bangs. His eyes were a silver color. His skin had a pale tone, he was tall,and had athletic build. He was wearing a white vest with a red dragon picture on the right side of his chest he wore a dark blue t wears a pair of long black pants with silver chains underneath and a pair of white sport shoes with black laces.

But the feature that stuck out most was the dark blue dragon-like wings that were on his back. They were open and stretched out in alarm.

"Oh, hello there I didn't know anyone else was here. Do you by any chance know the way out of here?" Frieda asked, but was ignored by the boy.

"You didn't touch the egg did you?" His asked, walking quickly towards the layout of blankets.

"Egg?" She watched him pick the item in the blankets up. It had an oval shape like an egg, but was much larger. It was about the size of your average household cat. It was a cream color with pale green spots.

"It's a dragon egg, probably the last one." He put a hand atop of it. "It should hatch any time now!" He said excitedly.

"What are you doing with it, uh what your name?"

"Brendan Yangmeng and I have it so when it hatches it won't be all alone and left to die!"

Freida looked at him for a moment, well, she looked at his wings more than anything. "Well that's really kind of you, it makes sense for a dragon to want to help out another."

"What are you talking about? Unless you're blind I'm clearly a human." Brendan gave her a questioning glance.

"Well, what I meant is that you have a dragon wing, so I just thought that you were some kind of hybrid or something?"

"I've always had these, I'm not sure how I got them so I don't really know anything about not being all human...anyways you said you were looking for a way out of here? Follow me and I'll take you back up to the surface, my brother is waiting for me so it won't be a problem leading you."

"Thanks alot! I would love to get back up to the city and find the girl I was with."

Brendan nodded and slipped the dragon into his bag before leading Frieda out of the room.

Well that took me longer to write than I expected. Anyways I hope you all enjoyed it, I know the last chapter kind of sucked...anyways I like how this chapter turned out and I hope you do too! :)
