"Well, well, well. Look what we have here!"
Kodos, Naugus, and Julian are thrown to the ground by the respective guards holding them. "You selfish son of a-," Kodos is kicked in the back before he can finish. "Mind your tone, Kodos," the King said, "despite your treachery you all still serve me!"
Julian rebutted, "We wouldn't serve you even if you were the last king on Mobius!" "Bold words for the one who built an army for me," said the King to Julian.
"Don't you realize what your doing to this land," Naugus called. The king replied, "I know exactly what I'm doing, Naugus. I'm doing what all my ancestors didn't have the spine to do!" Naugus continues, "We won't let you get away with this you despot!" "Really now," said the king, "Naugus, you and your troupe are already at my mercy, do you really think you stand a chance?"
Suddenly, Nagus disappears and reappears behind the king and knocks him to the ground. He then uses his crystalline magic to trap the the guards that were holding him and his comrades down. "Run fools! I can only do so much without my wand!"
Kodos grabs Julian and Naugus and carries them on his shoulders. Kodos runs out the throne room while King Acorn gets up to compose himself.
"Deploy the SWATBots. I want them to scour this whole city and bring me back those traitors."
"But sir-"
"That's an order! If you fail to act I'll have your head on a stake in the front of the castle!"
"Sir, we can't move…"
King Acorn sighs as he walks out of the room, "If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself." On his way out King Acorn pulls out his phone and makes a call.
"Charles! Deploy the SWATBots!"
"What for, your highness?"
"I want them to raid this whole city and find Kodos, Naugus, and Julian! I don't care who gets hurt, I just want those traitors executed!"
"Understood, your majesty!"
Charles hangs up the phone and turns in his chair to face his computer. A young boy stands next to him and asks, "Uncle Chuck? What's happening?" "N-nothing, sonny boy," says Charles, "Just stay here and I promise everything will be okay."
On his way to armory, King Acorn sees his daughter in the halls, carrying a large sword. "Sally, my dear," the king calls out, "whatever are you doing here? And with the Sword of Acorns no less!"
"D-daddy, I-"
"Now, now dear, no need to explain yourself. Just hand over the sword and I'll-"
"No!"
"What!?"
"I said NO!"
"Come on sweetie, just give me the sword. I-"
Suddenly, Sally disappears in a cloud of smoke along with the Sword of Acorns. The king is struck dumb, until he comes to a realization. "What in the… oh Naugus you scum!"
Outside of Castle Acorn, it's complete pandemonium, as the SWATBots have already began breaking into innocent people's homes and hurting anyone that stands in their way to look for the traitors. Little do they know, that Sally is leading them, and various other citizens to the safety of Knothole Village, previously only known to the royal family. This would be day her life, and the life of all her friends, would change forever. This day would be known as the birth of the original Freedom Fighters.
