Chapter 13 Hex's POV

The gates of Caverns were quite impressive. It was a medieval style gate with two spires one on each side. At the top of each spire there was a diamond block. In front of the gates stood two guards. We approached the guards but they crossed there spears in an X blocking our way. "None shall enter Caverns without permission!" Hollered the first guard.
Angel spoke up "We are just tired travelers looking for a place to stay."
"I don't care no one shall enter." said the second guard.
I had an idea. "We are demigods!" I said making my knife glow with power, Angel spread her wings, and Kalum summoned a flame. The guards moved their spears without a word. We stepped through the gates and they quickly shut them behind us.

We traveled down the long dark corridor. The tunnel expanded into a huge cavern. The city looked almost exactly like Azure City but underground. There lots of people milling around looking at shops, talking, or moving quickly from place to place. I remembered my mission. I checked around the area for pendants or anything suspicious. My thoughts were interrupted by a silver wolf rushing past me. Oh god that was Kayla's wolf! The wolf was being chased by two guys. One had spiky red hair as if someone had rubbed a balloon all over his head. The other had dark skin and long black hair. He was carrying a sword. It glowed red. Just like my arrows I thought. He wasn't leaving a trail of gray though. The dark skinned boy who looked to be about 16 stopped and asked Kalum "Do I know you from somewhere you look really familiar?" Kalum couldn't answer before the kid with the spiky red head yelled at the dark skinned boy "Come on Rico we don't have time to talk to fans." Fans? Where those two famous or something? I heard Rico tell the red head "Sorry he looked really familiar." Kalum looked skeptical.
"Do you know those guys?" I asked him.
"No. I never seen them in my life." Strange I thought. Maybe it was just a coincidence.

Rico's POV

"Tell me again why we are following this stupid wolf."
"God Rico how many times do I need to tell you. That wolf is from a child of Arcala they can summon silver wolves." Alex answered. I was reluctant to help a child of Arcala though. We only knew a few from Caverns and one had helped kill Argo. Soon an obsidian building came into view. I had only seen one before and it was one of Herobrine's outposts. Alex and I had snuck in and freed some townsfolk from one once. The wolf stopped at the gates and barked. There were no guards at the gates which seemed very strange. Alex raised his hand and lightning shot out. The screws holding the iron doors in place exploded and the doors fell to the floor. Still no guards. "Alex this might be a trap." He sighed "I'm quit aware of that." He replied.

The wolf ran into the outpost. We didn't really have a choice so we followed it. It went around twists and turns. I had no idea how it new where it was going (If it knew where was going.) The wolf stopped several meters in front of us. A hand reached out and pet the wolf's head. It began to grow fainter and fainter shades of silver until it was gone. I walked to over to where the wolf disappeared. I looked through the bars. "Oh my Notch! Alex look at who needs our help now!" Alex walked over and saw the pathetic sight.
"Oh my how ironic." He said.

AN: Two cookies to whoever guessed who it is. :)

Kayla's POV

Oh my Notch! Out of everyone on the entire planet who could come help it had to be Alex and Rico! Alex was the son of Tesla the god lightning and Rico was a son Helix like Hex. They where Argo's best friends. We had killed Argo. Well I had actually been the one to kill him. It had been my arrow that killed him. What if they did to me what I had done to them? What if they took my best friend away. I looked over at Streak I could tell he was having the same thoughts. I stood up trying to look as menacing as I could.

"Well well well. Look who we have here." Teased Alex. They both laughed. I must have looked pretty pathetic. I was tired, beaten, thirsty, and underfed. "Kayla and Streak." said Rico "What makes you think we are going to save you?" I managed to reply
"Cause we are *cough* on a mission to *cough* save Notch." They both broke out laughing. When they recovered enough to speak Alex said "Well you have done a hell of job! You got your self trapped in a prison congratulations!"

I decided to tell them the truth about Argo. They wouldn't likely believe me but it was worth a shot. "Look. I know you will never be able to forgive us but we probably saved your life. Argo was working for Herobrine. We had found the pendant around his neck when he died." Alex and Rico exchanged looks.
"I believe you." Said Rico.
"Same." Alex said. I was shocked they just believed me. Why!? I wouldn't have believed myself. Alex pounded the doors of the prison with a bolt of lightning. The bars broke apart from the force. "Argo had acted funny in his last few days." Alex said. It looked like he was fighting back tears. "You still killed our best friend. You were right we never can forgive you. But you were also right about Argo. We are only helping you for the good of Minecraftia."

I helped Streak to his feet. He was hurt really badly and could barely walk. He leaned against my shoulder to stay standing. "Crap! This was a trap!" Rico yelled "We are surrounded!" Guards were pouring in from both sides. Armed with swords and bows. Arrows where flying by Streak and I were so weak we couldn't fight. We just pressed ourselves against the ground and hoped we didn't get shot. Rico was parrying arrows with his sword. Whenever he swung it a shockwave of red energy flew out of the sword cutting 3 guys in half each time. Alex created an electrical field around a group of guards. If they tried to get out they would be electrocuted to death. An arrow hit Alex in the shoulder. He cried out in pain but pulled it out and kept fighting. A steady flow of blood was pouring out of his cut. Rico's sword was running low on energy. The blade's red glow was steadily getting fainter. "Alex!" Rico yelled "I'm running low on power we need to escape now!" Alex nodded his head. He spread his arms apart wide. The electricity field mimicked his motions and expanded greatly. Most of the guards on Alex's side died. "Thats it I'm out of mana!" Alex yelled over the noise of the battle. Rico abandoned his half and ran to the exit. Streak and I got up and walked slowly after them. I picked up a bow and a quiver from a fallen guard. I began picking off guards. I summoned my wolf to hold off the guards as long as possible. We hobbled slowly to the exit. We ran out the doors to meet some familiar faces. Angel, Hex, and Kalum were waiting for us. "We got here as fast as we could." said Angel. I didn't have the energy to respond. Streak and I walked over to safety and watched the others finish off the guards. I felt so pathetic not helping but I couldn't help. Angel lifted up the knocked down iron doors and smashed them into guards faces. Kalum made a of wall of fire at the exit so if they came out they got burnt. Hex was firing arrows through the fire hitting guards at random. Soon no more guards came through. We were safe. For now.

Yay long chapter! For more about Argo, Alex, and Rico check out my new book The Azure War. Please review. I have gotten some complaints about grammar so I went back and revised all my chapters. Man! My grammar really was terrible! Thanks for pointing that out you rock.
