Love Lasts Forever
Chapter 7: One Hour Escape
Previously on Love Lasts Forever: Hamtaro and the gang are led to a place called Azilla Village by a shadowy hamster named Glacier. They feel comfortable here even though the townsfolk are suspicious. But when Hamtaro finds a note about an attempt to murder them that night, they have one hour to escape the Shadow Hamster village and run as far as possible. Will they make it?
"Bijou! Guys, get up!" Hamtaro shook everybody awake and told them about the note on the board. The all began to freak out, but Hamtaro got them all to calm down. They decided to travel light, and grabbed only things they needed. Now, they could run at their full speed. They exited their rooms and snuck out back. The villagers were already occupying the roads, chatting and sharpening their blades. They were almost ready. The gang snuck out of the village safely and then they heard a shout. Hamtaro wheeled around. The villagers had spotted them. "Run!" Hamtaro screamed. The gang bolted into the forest and the villagers couldn't go into the forest. It was beyond their borders. But then Hamtaro realized someone wasn't with them.
Daisy was in the middle of the field, scrambling painfully toward the forest. "My ankle's twisted! Help me!" she shouted. Bo flew into the middle of the field where Daisy was, and picked her up. She was grateful, but she was too heavy for Bo to carry a long way, and the villagers would catch them with their rope before they could do anything. Bo then said, "Run, Daisy. Don't worry about me, I'll hold them off." Daisy watched on horror as he flew back past the crowd, and as they turned their course around after him. Hamtaro ran out into the field and helped Daisy to her feet. As they stumbled toward the forest, she turned around and gasped as she saw Bo being tied up and beat with sticks.
"NO!!! Please, anything but him!" Daisy was in a state of panic. She could hear her heart beat fast for Bo, and she wanted to run out there and get him, but she knew that was ridiculous. The ham-hams thought that they were going to lose the only brightness left in the kingdom, when Hamtaro felt a hand on his shoulder. He shuddered. He didn't know who it was, but it was a bloody, dirty hand and the blood leaked down Hamtaro's shoulder from it. Hamtaro wheeled around. It was Bo.
Bo fell to the ground. He was in a bad condition, because his skin was bruised and cut up, and one of his beautiful wings was broken. Daisy ran up to comfort him, and brought him over to the campsite. "We'll have to find a way to help him, or else......." Hamtaro shuddered at this thought. Looking at Bo, whose breath was coming in quivering gasps, Hamtaro said, "Hey, you're going to be okay. We can't lose you. You're the ruler of Rainbow Land. Without you, you're kingdom will fall." Bo looked up at him and said, " You know I'm not going to make it. It's all over." Hamtaro saw that Daisy had heard these words, and she was about to burst into tears. Hamtaro said, " No, you'll make it! Y-y-you will....." Bo looked at the sun. Hamtaro glanced over too, and he saw that the sun was beginning to rise. The hours were beginning to pass faster because of the Shadows"The sun s-sets on my time," Bo said shakingly, "and rises on yours. I want you to be the heir to the throne Hamtaro. Never g-give up on my dream."
Hamtaro jumped back and said, " I-I couldn't be a king! I have no experience, I'm not royal, and I know you'll live!" Then, Bo quivered a little, and went white. He was dead. Hamtaro, Daisy, and all the others stared at the fallen Prince Bo in shock. Hamtaro then said, "Look guys. The sun is rising. We have to go, and I'm sure that if we leave now, we can get to the bottom of the mountain. Let's go." Daisy walked over to Bo and gave him one last kiss on his forehead, and said, " I wish you wouldn't go where I can't follow." And they left toward the mountain side.
Next time on Love Lasts Forever: Hamtaro and the gang reach a small city at the bottom of the peak, where they know is trustable because of the beautiful colors and buzzing excitement. But when the city sees the Shadow Hamsters coming toward their beloved city, they don't know what to do. Until Hamtaro decideds it's time for war....And they'll meet someone unexpected...
