Objects of a Forgotten Past.
Chapter 2 - The Escape with a New Friend
The air was cool, she stood where she was wide-eyed, 'how could a place like this be in a cave?' She thought as she looked at the around. There were many streams and the trees that looked like they could reach heaven. She looked at the sky, it was a greenish- purplish color.
'was she dreaming or was there three suns and five moons out at the same time. She hit her head, "Wake up!" She yelled as she did so.
"That hurt..." She said.
"I don't think this is a dream miss." A voice said behind her. She turned her head and seen a blond guy with blue eyes staring at her.
"Who are you?" She said as she looked at him.
"My name is Zech's Marquise." He said as he bowed, there was a grin on his face. Relena was a little unnerved about it.
"We haven't had any visitors here for a long time miss." He started to laugh insanely and then three people grabbed her arm so she couldn't move. One hit her on the head and she collapsed into darkness.
She woke up in a muddy cave. No one was around her, she couldn't go anywhere because of the bars that kept her in the corner of the cave.
She saw no one but the dirt beneath her and the stone walls that surrounded her. She stayed in the 'prison' for hours, trying to escape, yell for help. But none came. Then she heard some people walk in.
"Oh, your awake are you." One of them said.
Relena looked at them as if they were being warned not to mess with her. They were talking to themselves and looked at her. She knew they were talking about her. Maybe saying. 'Shall we kill her now, or shall we kill her later.'
What they were really saying. " Hey she's pretty cute. Maybe we could go in and have... a chat with her." One of the men said.
All of them smiled and looked at her again and nodded.
"Hey little girl, you wanna have some fun." One said to her. They unlocked the barrier and let themselves in. Don't you wanna go make us some nice scrumptious food after we had... a talk with you." Another guy said. Relena looked at them as if they were crazy.
One of them tried to kiss her. She kneed him, (where it hurts) and punched him in the face. He went to the floor yelling.
She ran off and locked them into the cell as she left. The cave seemed to last forever. She came to a 't' and stopped. (that's when you have more than one option to go.) "Which way." She kept on muttering under her breath. She heard some muffled sounds, one way and someone talking in the other. She ran to the way of the muffled sounds because she could hear people coming in the other way. The walk way was lit by torches. Then she saw what made the muffled sounds. A prisoner, like herself. Except she wasn't it a cell, her arms were tied up with rope to a chain that stuck out from the walls. She was weak. That was obvious considering the way she slouched on the ground like the way she did. Relena tried to think of something. She didn't have a knife. She walked toward her to see if the chain was loose.
"Who... who are you." She gasped as she awoke from her sleep.
"I'm here to help you." Relena whispered. The chain was steady, it didn't even move an inch from all the pulling Relena did. Then another thought came to her. Fire. The grabbed one of the torches and burnt the rope. The strange girl was free. Relena helped her up. "May I ask what your name is?" She said
Relena smiled. "My name is Relena... Relena Dorlian." The girl managed to bow to her rescue. "My name is Hilde Schbeiker, and I thank you for coming to my rescue."
They ran out of the cave with no surprises. Which was astonishing to Relena. The light seemed to blind her at first but then she became use to it. "Where are we?" She asked. Hilde dragged Relena with her. "Don't worry. My boyfriend lives in these woods. As long as your with me, nothing could happen to you here."
Relena looked around, "Are you sure you know where your going?"
Hilde nodded, "Of course I do."
The seemed lost in the forest. Soon day became night and it was getting pitch black. The stars were hidden because of the massive trees that lined the sky.
"We need to set up camp." Hilde said.
They both gathered fire wood and set a fire in the middle of the 'camp.' "Are you sure this is safe?" Relena asked a little unsure.
Hilde rolled her eyes, "Of course I am. I know this place better than anyone that I ever knew. Well except for my boyfriend."
"Your boyfriend?" Before she could say anything else she heard a voice from the distance. " Hey, who's there?" Someone was calling out.
Fearing that it was one of Zech's soldiers she ducked. Relena looked for the person and started waving her hand. Obviously recognized the voice.
"Hey Duo, It's me Hilde. I'm back!" A face appeared, it was a boy, no older than the both of them. He had a long braided hair and blue eyes. He smiled once he seen Hilde's face.
Hilde hugged him once he was close enough.
" How did you escape?" He said with a grin on his face. Still holding her tight. Hilde pointed to Relena. "She helped me. That was the only way I even got out." Duo took notice that there was someone else there but them.
"Who is she?" Duo asked.
"Her names Relena," Hilde said as she hugged him tight. They separated and Duo extended his hand to Relena.
"Thank you so much for saving her."
"I suppose I should be thanking you." Relena said with a smile on her face. "We should go if we want to make it back before nightfall." Duo, Hilde and Relena went in the direction Duo came from.
