Feeling hurt and betrayed, Olivia was shoved rudely under the blackening, inky sky, occupied with dealing with the massive swirling thing. How could he betray all of them? She gritted her teeth angrily and stumbled into Emma.
Emma gasped with pain as the guards snapped on cuffs to her ankles and hands. Her wrists and ankles were starting to redden with pain and she felt the pain shooting up her feet and hands every time she moved them, the worst were her feet.
Charlie tried to think something up but he's easily distracted. He needed the idea train to come on time or else his time will be delayed.
"Come here," a guard said gruffly.
Charlie, dragging his feet because of his chains, obediently stepped up with a heavy heart. The others followed suit, looking at Charlie with a pained face.
"Good, in a few minute's time, the Mighty One will then choose your fate. Don't, move." he said coldly as he sidestepped Charlie and walked away, leaving the empty area to the kids in chains.
Now's the time Charlie made a plan, and he better do it now or else…bad things will happen. He felt the extreme heat blazing around and soon, the fire would have to stop for there was nothing else to burn, except if you include human beings.
(WOO! Sorry but I HAD to put this on! For me, it's May 21st and the last day of school! Yes, I finished school for now…back to the story.)
Think Charlie, think. he thought anxiously. Then…
"HEY, BARFBRAIN!" Charlie yelled to Mrs. Johnson.
Mrs. Jonson didn't stop walking off, in fact, she was pleasantly smiling.
"HEY YOU! YEAH, YOU! WITH THE UGLY WIG! I'M TALKING TO YOU, JOHNSON!" Charlie yelled.
"What are you trying to do, get yourself killed?" Olivia asked in disbelief.
"No, I'm saving us," Charlie muttered.
"By insulting the enemy? Oh yeah, real nice! Let's go insult the enemy so we'll be safe! Nice going Charlie!" Olivia snapped impatiently.
"Just follow my lead," Charlie muttered back.
Olivia opened her mouth to say something but she couldn't manage to spit it out so she just groaned and glared.
"WHAT ARE YOU, CHICKEN TO TALK?" Charlie mocked. He then made rude loud chicken sounds.
Mrs. Johnson stopped and spun around, grinning. "I know what you're doing Mr. Charlie Bone, and I must say that you need work on it." And with that she turned away and kept on going as if Charlie didn't do anything at all.
Charlie looked around and spotted a rock chunk. He slowly reached down and picked it up, throwing it up and down a few times before proceeding with the plan. He looked at the guards; they were all busy fingering their spears, checking if it's pointy enough. Charlie looked at his target and back at the guards. He glanced at his friends who looked at him with a look, which meant 'Don't do it or you'll get us killed in one of your "brilliant" plans'.
Charlie paid no attention to those looks and he raised his hand a bit and threw with all his might.
He watched anxiously for the rock was his only chance. The stone flew through the air and thumped Mrs. Johnson at the back of her head with a loud thump. She stopped and turned, hand flying up to the now forming bruise.
"You," she murmured ebilly at Charlie.
Charlie didn't smile back but in his mind, he was grinning broadly. "Yeah, me." he said simply, looking around as if looking for anyone else who could've thrown the stone. "I did that, now what are you going to do with me?"
"Nothing, I was just wondering," Mrs. Johnson said with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh yeah? Well…your husband told me that you stink!" Charlie said, trying desperately to upset her.
"About time his nose went all messed up, I've been waiting to get him a nose transplant," Mrs. Johnson said.
"Is that even possible?" Charlie asked Billy who shrugged.
"If you don't have anything to say, then don't say anything at all!" she scowled.
"I THINK YOU'RE A WEAK UGLY WOMAN!" Charlie roared.
"I think so too," she replied.
"You're nosy!" Olivia pitched in.
"Yes, and I'm proud of it!" Mrs. Johnson said, smiling.
"You're a nincompoop!'' Charlie yelled.
"Nincompoop?" Dannielle said, staring at Charlie.
"What? It's not too bad and it's not too good, is it?" Charlie said defensively.
Dannielle shook her head, smiling a little.
"YOU'RE A HORRIBLE, EVIL, HAG!" Olivia shouted.
Mrs. Johnson took a tiring sigh and said, "You're not going to stop, are you?"
"No we won't!" Charlie barked.
"Then I shall leave," Mrs. Johnson said curtly.
"What, wait, no!" Charlie said in alarm. "You can't!"
"Why not?" she asked in a bored tone.
"Because…I am about to call you a…a…bitch!"
Everyone who heard stared and Mrs. Johnson scowled. "You take that back!"
Charlie, knowing that he succeeded, stuck out his tongue.
She gasped and then she picked up the rock Charlie threw and hurtled it back. She missed and it hit Charlie's chains. The woman threw it so hard, that the chains broke. "Temper, temper…" Charlie said, smiling broadly.
Mrs. Johnson screamed with fury. "What?" Charlie said, shrugging. "All I called you was a female dog!"
Tancred made a funny sound, more like a laughing sound.
Charlie ducked as Mrs. Johnson threw her shoe at him. "I'll be back later guys!" Charlie said quickly. He ran to who knows where. He went over people, around trees, dodging guards, keeping a keen eye on Mrs. Johnson once in a while.
He knew he was safe if he went back in the woods…the Flames would protect him…but wait, where are they???
