A/N, I have decided that every ten chapters will be one story arc. So with a story arc with each version of Shadow (with exception of 'emotion') as the main villain. That would equal... Four story arcs. This means forty chapters unless I place some chapters after the end of all the Shadow story arcs to sum up what has happen. To the story.
Chapter 14: Escape
Lilly woke suddenly when she heard something hit the ground next to her. She looked to see a passed out goon of Hans' army. She spied several keys attached to a ring on the man's belt. She tried to move the keys with her feet seeing as they were not tied or bound in any way. She sighed deeply as she managed to get the keys to the floor. She was hoping that the key ring had the keys to her gauntlets that stopped her from using her powers. She tried to drag the keys to herself but accidentally kicked them away from herself. She suddenly heard voices outside the tent she was held in.
"Did you hear? Shadow and Hans are going to execute the prisoners in front of the world by Shadow's portals. Soon the world will see not to fuck with those two" the first voice laughed.
"Yeah. They are going to kill those they agreed upon to who they can kill. Shadow with those none humans and that one-armed bitch of a princess. Hans has the others" the second voice explained.
"You two are the two biggest idiots I know. Do you guys think they will let us watch" a third voice cried.
"Why not" the two others laughed in unison.
"Because we are the grunts. The ones who do the dirty work for nothing" the third replied.
"Bullshit we aren't getting nothing outta this. We get to have fun with the girls before tomorrow. Shadow said so himself, as long as no-one touches the queen and her daughter" the first voice protested against the third's argument.
"I am with him" the second agreed with the first.
"You two disgust me. Get me after you finish being pigs" the third shouted as he seemed to walk away.
"Look, the queen's daughter is here. Why don't we just have fun with her? Shadow will never find out" the first voice exclaimed, completely shrugging off the fact that their third member was against them.
"You have my undying attention. I love it when the sluts scream" the second agreed.
Lilly's heart stopped as she heard the two criminals' plan. She swore she was about to cry when the two grown men walked into the tent. One was solidly built and wore peasant clothes as he walked up to the princess. The second was more slender but his clothes resembled a more posh background. They had sickening smiles on their faces as they eyed the underrated princess with preying eyes. Lilly didn't know what to do until she heard knives enter the back of both men's necks. They both fell to reveal a navy blue skinned humanoid holding two bloody knives in each of his hands. At first Lilly was relieved. She had escaped torture. Her relief quickly left her when she saw the scar on the humanoid's cheek. T'paki had warned her of this demon. This demon had the mark of the Timeline Assassin. The assassin's trademark scar was on his cheek. The scar was a burn mark with a letter being burnt into the cheek before the burn scar even appeared. (Makes perfect sense). The demon took one look at Lilly before kneeling.
"Hello Princess Lilly. I am B'iworit-Kageth A.K.A. The Timeline Assassin. I believe you know my future son, Snipes" the humanoid introduced himself.
"Why did you save me" Lilly asked.
"Because you're the only one who can kill the Shadows" The Timeline Assassin answered.
"What makes you say that" Lilly eyed the demon closely.
"Simple; I am the one who is gonna help you. I have traveled through time to know what is going on in the past before I even go there, if that makes sense" the demon answered with a more quieter voice.
"Spoiler much" Lilly huffed as she heard this demon.
"Sorry" T.A. laughed.
"Can you get me outta here" Lilly asked, completely forgetting what T'paki had said to her about him.
"Tell me where you accidentally kicked the keys" T.A. asked in return.
"There" Lilly pointed to the spot in which she kicked the keys.
"Thank you" the demon replied as he fetched the keys.
He used one key to release Lilly's hands. He then used another key to unlock a wooden chest on the other side of the tent. Out he pulled Lilly's katana. He went to the right side of the tent next and collected a set of armour and cloak for Lilly. On the left side of the tent he picked up a map of the Arendelle kingdom and quickly drew out the camp on the map. He gave Lilly all these items before stepping outside. Lilly quickly put on the armour and cloak. She was grateful for having armour and a cloak that fitted her. She placed her katana by her hip so that it was easily reached when she needed it. She took a look at the map and saw the locations of all the tents. She stuffed the map into her pocket on the cloak and raised the hood. She walked out to see the demon whom saved her standing around.
"I'm ready to rescue my friends and family" Lilly whispered.
"Trust me. Don't rescue them tonight. I have seen many a universe and saving them tonight leads towards a dark future for you. You need to get outta here before then. Okay" the demon softly replied before slowly walking to a large tent.
"Dickhead" Lilly spat.
"Just come with me and you and all your friends and family live for longer. Shadow and Hans won't kill unless you all are there. You can rescue your loved ones after I train you so you can kill Shadow" the demon replied.
"What makes you so sure" Lilly questioned.
"I trust you" the assassin replied.
"Not exactly the answer I was hoping for but good enough for me" Lilly responded before walking off with the demon.
A/N, nothing to say here other than please review, follow or favourite the story. Bye.
