So Sam and Flora are breaking out! Will they succeed in their Sweet Escape? I know it's short, but it's gonna get good! You'll see how!
"What? Breaking out?" Flora exclaimed in disbelief. "But Soto is going to kill you for helping me! Literally!"
"Don't worry, he and the others are on a hunt anyway." said Sam. Plus, he did have a pretty decent escape plan, he just wasn't going to let Flora know everything about it.
"I'm not so sure." Flora stepped back reluctantly. "Like I said before, Soto is going to kill you and I don't want to make it happen."
"You're worrying too much. Don't blame yourself over something that's not going to happen."
"Sam..."
"Come on Flora, don't you want to get back to your family?"
Sam did have a point. But still, she didn't want to take any chances in something happening to him.
"Flora, we don't have a lot of time." Sam told her. "We gotta run now."
Giving in, Flora nodded and squeezed in through the opening, and ran out with Sam. She was so excited to finally get outside after two weeks of imprisonment that she sprinted, leaving Sam struggling to catch up to her.
"Flora, slow down!" Sam breathed heavily from running after Flora.
"Sorry. I'm just glad to be free!" sighed Flora happily, skipping back to Sam. "So where are we going?"
"You'll see in a minute, but you gotta trust me."
"Why can't you tell me?"
Sam merely answered with "all part of the plan" which annoyed Flora, but nevertheless, she followed him.
…
"Come on, we're almost there!" Sam lead the way.
"Almost where?" questioned Flora. This place was still unrecognizable to her. "I've never seen this place before. Are you sure this is a good place to hide out?"
"Why do you ask?"
"It 's such an open area. Anything out there can find us and do who-knows-what to us in broad daylight."
"The further we go, the more hidden it becomes."
"Sam, I don't think that-"
"Just trust me Flora."
Knowing that this was her only way back to her family, Flora had to listen to Sam. They made their way to the more hidden area, but they got an unpleasant surprise.
They gasped when Soto, Lenny, Oscar and Zeke jumped out and circled them.
"SAM!" gasped Flora, hoping that he didn't set her up again, but looking at his fearful gleam and thumping heart, she knew that he was as shocked and fearful at the moment as she was.
"Traitor!" Oscar snarled in Sam's face.
"Oh would you look at that, the wimpy, little kid is risking his life to save his girlfriend!" mocked Zeke. "How sweet! And pathetic!"
Soto, with a furious look on his face, faced Sam.
"I should have known that this would happen. Putting you on guard duty was a big mistake."
"I made my choice Soto. I caught on your actual plan. You were going to kill Flora all along and I will not make it happen!" Sam stood up to Soto once again.
Flora gasped.
"Pity." said Soto. "I warned you what would happen if you helped her escape." he glanced at Flora and pounced on her hard, pinning her to the ground.
"Get off me!" snarled Flora.
"Now, now, let's not be so rude." teased Soto. He motioned for Oscar to do the same to Sam and within a blink of an eye, Sam was shoved to the ground.
"If you care so much about your lady there Sam, I think it's best that you join her."
"NO!" cried Flora. "Don't you touch him!"
Soto was about to strike a blow to Sam that will cost his life. But once he was an inch away from killing him, he noticed an orange blur leap at him, knocking him off of Flora. Oscar was also attacked by a whitish, grayish female saber. Flora couldn't be any happier as to who her rescuers were.
"Mom, Dad!"
Yay! Diego and Shira arrived at the nick of time to save Flora and Sam! What will happen to them next?
