Chapter 7
"Take him to his cell," Katsuro said turning away from me.
I dangled weakly from my captors arms as they dragged me back to my prison. I hung my head so they wouldn't see me smiling. When Katsuro had turned away from me I had seen a sparkle of silver glint from his chest. There was a key on a chain around his neck. It had to be the key to the manacles! I simply had to figure out had to get Katsuro close enough to pickpocket it and I was home free!
"You can bite me Katsuro," I thought as I was thrown into the room, "I will not be here much longer. You can count on it."
I think I have been here for seven or eight days now. I had tried on several occasions to get Katsuro's attention ever since I had discovered the key around his neck. If I could trick him into thinking that I had accepted "my fate in life" then maybe I could lure him into trusting me so I can get him closer. I could then get the key without him being the wiser until its too late. Unfortunately, I had not been able to get Kitty Kat to let me out. He must have been all wrapped up in his "world domination" plans.
This sucks! When I don't want his attention, the man shows up all the time. When I do want the mans attentions, he decides to ignore me. Now what do I do? I've got to get that key! I went to the door and started pounding on it again.
"Katsuro!" I yelled, "I want to see you! I need to talk with you! Please!"
I stopped and listened for any movement on the other side of the door. Nothing.
"Damn!" I cursed to myself allowing my arms to drop and then started in surprise.
My hand was resting on the doorknob. Since I had arrived here a shielding spell had been placed on the door that would not allow me to touch the lock or doorknob. This meant that Katsuro's concentration was elsewhere at the moment. I wasted no time on picking the lock. I was free!
"Now to find the way out of here," I thought to myself easing the door open.
I noticed right away that it was very late at night. I stealthily crept down the hallway making no noise at all. Thank God for being a trained ninja. Unfortunately, I had no idea where I was going and became miserably lost. Hiding in some shadows, I thought of my options. What would Donnie do in this situation? Or Leo?
"That's it!" I thought to myself when I noticed the windows, "Donnie and Leo would try to find a point of reference and then go from there."
I looked out of one of the windows to try to get an idea of where I was and what size building I was in. I was able to study the lay out of the fort or castle to a point. I seemed to be up on the third level. If I could find my way down to the lower levels, I was sure I could find a door outside. I jumped in surprise when I heard a familiar, loud voice ring out throughout the grounds.
"MICHELANGELO! I KNOW YOU ARE STILL IN HERE. GIVE UP BEFORE I GET ANGRY. YOU BELONG TO ME NOW."
"Fat chance!" I thought rushing down a flight of steps, "I belong to nobody but myself."
I ran as quickly as I could and was able to get down to the lower levels of the structure before I ran into a group of shadow warriors. I turn and ran in the opposite direction knowing that the manacles would keep me from being able to defend myself. I skidded into what looked like a kitchen and slammed the heavy door shut and locked it. When I turned around, I saw paradise. There was an open door leading outside! I ran to freedom when a flash of light and a hard jerk to my hair sent me tumbling backwards. An enraged Katsuro stood above me.
"You are mine!" he shouted hauling me to my feet by my hair, "And I have been patient with you long enough."
"Let me go!" I shrieked trying to get away from him, "You have no right to treat people this way! If you cared at all for me, you wouldn't do this!"
"I will do as I please!" Katsuro bellowed in my face, "All people will bow to my will, including you."
Katsuro dragged me by my hair all the way back up to my prison and punched me in the face knocking me to the ground in a daze. With a whispered word the door to the room transformed into a new door with no lock or doorknob facing the inside where I would be trapped.
"You are mine," he growled and slammed and the locked the door behind him as he left.
"What's going to happen now?" I thought holding my aching jaw.
To be continued.
