Christopher's POV
Chapter four: Capture
"You can put me down now, I think I'm ok to walk." David broke the long lasting silence.
"Ok." I said as I let go of him causing him to fall to the ground with a THUD.
He rolled over and gave me an annoyed look.
"ooops sorry." I said innocently.
David rolled his eyes and stood up.
We've been walking for an hour and more nasty thoughts of what could be happening to April ran through my mind. Why did they take her? What do they want from her? I know she's beautiful but there were millions of girls in Everworld. Elves, nymphs and witches like Senna. Why did the have to take my girl away? I mean our girl of course! She's David and Jalil's friend too. A girl like April will never be mine.
I tried to imagine April and I dating. Although the thought was laughable it was kinda nice to think about kissing her and cuddling with her and-
Oh my god I think I might l-"Look!" Jalil interrupted my thought.
I looked around. The footprints were gone!
"DAMMIT!" I yelled.
"No not that." Jalil said looking at the ground. "This."
I followed the direction he was pointing and saw what he was pointing at.
It looked like the faint outlines of a very large building.
"Do you think she's over there?" I asked.
"Probably." David's hand was on the hilt of his sword.
"Did those people look like people who live in a castle?" Jalil questioned.
"No, But they could be soldiers." David Suggested.
"Yeah you would know." I muttered.
"Anyway, What have we got to lose?" David because walking toward the building we thought was a castle.
I followed closely.
"In this world… nothing." Jalil said before he started to follow David.

When we reached the building we found it was infact a castle. It looked like the one one from that Disney movie. What was it called? Aladdin? Yeah that sounded about right.
"Hay! Maybe we'll find a magic genie and wish ourselves inside!" I said suggestively.
Jalil rolled his eyes. "Christopher, there's no such thing."
"Not in the real world, but there could be in this one." I challenged.
"True. After all we have seen Dwarves, Elves and dragons, Why not magic genies? But if we did happen to find one we could just wish April never got kidnapped."
"But that would spoil all the fun." I said sarcastically.
Jalil rubbed his temples. I love annoying him!
David studied the castle. "How do we get in?"
"We could climb up April's hair." I suggested.
David ignored my comment. "There are guards everywhere." He looked at two large men who stood guarding the entrance.
"Then why aren't we hiding?" I asked when I realized we were standing out in the open.
The men turned their big, hairy heads to look at us.
"Behind that bush!" Jalil whispered.
"Do you think it was us they were looking at?" David asked as her got his sword ready to fight.
Just then a very large hand ripped David's sword out of his hands.
The three of us slowly looked up.
The two very large men were towering over us.
"Yup." I squeaked.
"RUN!" David yelled.
Before they could get up the men picked David and Jalil up off the ground.
While they fought to free themselves, I stood there watching. What was I suppose to do? I couldn't get caught or April would have no one to rescue her. I'm such a coward! That's why Ganymede was killed. Because I was a coward.
One of the men reached out to try and grab me, but I was too quick.
"Christopher run! Go save April!" David shouted.
"But-" I started.
"Christopher don't be an idiot! Right now you're the only one who can save her!" Jalil yelled.
The man tried to grab me again, but I ran.
I ran as fast as I could into a forest.
They came after me.
I wove myself between the trees hoping to lose them. No such luck.
I looked up to see a very tall tree with a thick shield of leaves.
I managed to settle on a branch just as they caught up.
"Where'd he go?" One of the men asked.
"You lost him!" The other accused.
"Well if you helped a little more then I wouldn't of!" The other shot back.
"That doesn't matter! We better not tell Sirin or he'll have our heads."
"And he'll be more angry with us for bringing him such awful news on such a wonderful day."
"Yes. The new queen he has chosen is a real beauty."
"He'll have some fun with her I'll bet you!"
Queen? Oh no April!
The mean walked away laughing.
Oh my god! April getting married to one of these people?! I think I'm going to be sick!
Just as I began to climb down the tree a noise from the branch above me caught my attention.
I tried to see what it was but there were too many leaves in the way.
When I went in for a closer look, something very hard hit me in the head.
"OW!" I cried.
Then everything went black.
