Hey, its been forever since I posted, and I'm sorry for that, I've had MASSIVE writers block, but I just broke through it and I will be posting again. Special thanks to JoseMaster1 for the reveiws, its really appreciated. This is a smaller chapter, but I really wanted to get it out. The next one will be up soon!
Silica went for her sword and began to move forwards, I put out my hand to stop her.
"We don't fight yet, let him take us in, we attack from within, if he fights us here we'll kill him, he probably knows that." I whispered, explaining my actions.
"Come out slowly with your hands up, I don't want to have to kill you." Josh ordered.
"Alright, we're coming." I answered.
I got to my feet and walked out, my hands in the air. Silica quickly did the same.
"I'm going to take your weapons off of you, any sudden movements and I put a blade in one of your bellies." Josh said, eying me down heavily.
I looked to Silica. "Just let him, we're nothing right now."
"He's right." Josh replied aggressively.
As he took my scythes a group of bandits ten strong came around the corner, weapons drawn.
"It's alright guys, I got them captured!" Josh said, pulling my arms behind my back and binding them. "Can one of you bind the girl?"
"Sure." One of the bandits said, sheathing his sword and moving to Silica, who looked uncomfortable and angry, but did not resist.
"Where are you taking us?" I asked, looking to Josh.
"Why are you asking me questions? Do I look like I'm taking you? They decide, I'm going to make sure you didn't bring friends." Josh practically spat the words out. He looked frustrated. "I'm going to go get Keith, the lunie."
"Yeah, these guys are barely a threat." One of the bandits said grabbing me by my right arm. "The fuck?"
The bandit moved some cloth behind my back. "Hey, language!" I said.
"What is with your arm, and don't order me around." He barked at me.
"Clearly, it's made of metal, one of your friends helped that happen." I answered.
"Damn, that sucks for you now doesn't it." He said, and pushed me in a direction. "Move."
Soon the group had us moving around the camp. We eventually came to a gate on the side of the fort, it was wide open, and there were people who were standing ready with weapons. They eased when they saw us bound and being pushed around. We were brought to a one story building pushed through the doors. Inside there was a few metal beds with constraints. I felt my bonds undo and I looked to Silica. She looked panicked and glanced at me, her eyes were looking for answers.
"Don't resist" A bandit said to us, and I nodded to him to answer Silica.
Quickly, I was raised off my feet and dragged to the table. They span me around and slammed me to the table. I heard Silica grunt in pain to my right. Quickly, my hand and feet were strapped to the table.
"This idiot isn't even wearing shoes!" A bandit shouted.
I looked left to Silica, who was looking at me, fearful, and confused.
"Well, we did it, we caught that prick on the river. Let's celebrate!" A gruff bandit said, and they all left.
"Idiots." Rain said in my head. "Tell me when."
"What now?" Silica said to me.
"We escape." I answered.
"How?" She questioned in return.
"I have tools." I said.
(Would the armblade work?) I asked rain in my head.
"Yes, now?" Rain replied.
(Mhm.)
Suddenly, I heard a blade sliding against metal, and the blade erupted horizontally from my forearm, slicing through the leather bonds on the table with ease. I saw Silica jump.
"What the heck? Where did that come from?" Silica asked.
"Pocket dimension, Rain made the blade in my arm, and the pocket dimension it's stored in. Enderman magic I think." I answered.
"As far as I know, that's true" Rain confirmed.
I got on my side and went to cut the left hand bonds, and then sat up to look around. The room was small, and took up the entire building, the only entryway was the front door. I heard a bell begin to ring outside.
"They're coming." I said, and went for my feet bonds.
"Who's comi- oh, the rest of us… Well hurry up then!" Silica shouted.
I quickly got up and went to Silica, cutting her bonds and getting her on her feet.
"We need weapons, let's go." I went to open the door.
"Where do you think we'll find anything?" Silica asked.
"No clue, but we can look for those guys that took our weapons" I said, opening the door.
Immediately on the other side there was a group of bandits, the same ones that bound us, they stopped right when they saw me.
"They're gettin' out!" One of them shouted.
"Well, there's some weapons." I said, and charged at them.
I made a swing at one of them, and he dodged backwards. A couple of them dropped their weapons and turned to run, fear in their eyes. Silica quickly took the advantage to grab one of those swords, and I protected her in the process.
"Where did he get that blade?" The leader of the small group said.
"I don't know, His arm?" Another stated, confused.
"How does that work?" A third, more confused than all of them.
"I'm right here you know." I said, and I grabbed Silica's hand. "Hold tight!"
I turned to the main building and sprinted, Silica let go of my hand and jumped on my back, would be easier that way. The bandits quickly followed in suit.
"He's running!"
Over the fort, in the sky I saw fireballs, and quickly those balls began to rain on the fort. I was forced to dodge people and hail of fire, great. When I was maybe ten yards from the main fort, which stood two stories tall and had a balcony. Convenient. I jumped, packing an explosion in the bound, and grabbed onto Silica to make sure she didn't fall from my back. We landed on the balcony and I made for the door.
"We should wait for the rest." Silica said
"We don't have much time, I want to end this with as few casualties as possible.
I opened the door, and felt a click, like a tripwire or a pressure plate.
