Chapter Thirty-four

Susan, Tomy, Kevin, Brian and Alan followed the spies at a safe distance to make sure they were alright. But Susan and Tomy still weren't sure why they were there. The truth was they were decoys once the spies found the kidnappers Susan and Tomy would go in and pretend to be on their side. But that didn't quite work.

Anna was leading the group when they found some of the kidnappers and decided to follow them. They followed them all the way into caves that apparently lead up to a large house where the leaders stayed. Once the men they had followed stopped Anna motioned for Susan and Tomy to come forward and told them what to do when… CRASH!"

"Keri! You just gave us away! Run!" Some of the spies and all but one knight and his squire got out before….

"Well, well, well it looks like we found ourselves some spies…"

"Chase! Eryk! What's all the noise?"

Susan and Tomy had to stifle gasps when they saw the source of the voice… Rachel!

"Tomy, lets move slowly and see if we can get out." Susan suggested in a whisper.

Tomy nodded and together they crept backwards until Susan tripped over a rock and fell.

"OUCH! Crap."

"What was that?" Rachel asked and Eryk walked towards them to see what was happening.

"Tomy run get out of here." Susan whispered Tomy shook his head and helped Susan to her feet just as Eryk got to them.

"More spies I think."

"Bring them here."

Susan and Tomy walked back to where the others, Anna, Samara, Rhian, the traitor Keri, Alan and his squire Brian, were.

"Well, well, well I didn't think I'd see you here."

"Rachel thank goodness we found you… we were getting worried weren't we Tomy?"

"Yeah real worried."

"Come on you weren't worried you just want to save you selves."

"Rachel what's… who are these people?" Nic had come down to see what was taking so long.

"No one… spies I think except those four she said indicating Brian, Alan, Tomy and Susan."

"Well who are they?"

"Those two" Brian and Alan, "are warriors from Tortal, he… well he's from my world but we don't get along and she is a friend, she was with me just before I got here."

"Well then, take the spies and the warriors and the boy to the back of the cave and Rachel, would you mind showing your friend around? I need to talk to Eryk.

"Of course not, come on Sue," she said in a cheery voice.

Once they were out of ear shot Susan turned to Rachel and asked, "Why didn't you help Tomy too?"

"He broke up with me which clearly means that he doesn't need my help."

"Why did you help me then?"

"I didn't want anything to happen to you… you didn't care that I wasn't going out with Tomy anymore you talked to me and helped me anyway."

"Oh, well thanks."

"No problem you'd do the same thing for me I'm sure."

"Yes of course."

"Come on, I'll get you something to eat."

Susan followed Rachel down the hall to the kitchen and accepted the fruit offered to her.

Meanwhile in the cave

"I can't believe she would do this to me!"
"You expected Susan to…"

"Not Susan, Rachel!"

"Oh I thought you broke up with her."

"Yeah… and? I still went out with her."

"Fine I obviously don't know what I'm talking about."

"You're right my friend."

Now please review.
