Torture
"Where am I?" said Ember 2. She found she was talking to herself. She was in the dark gem cave; also no other soul was around her, yet. Being the adventurous sort she decided to explore.
After hours of searching the place for somebody to talk to, she thought that she should find a way out. She searched for a little while longer, but there was not a crack of light in the cave. Ember 2 felt so alone. She felt afraid and cold, yet there was no wind or breeze. A picture of a dragon flashed briefly through her mind. An image of Smoke. She found a loose manacle around her wrist and slipped it off. Then something/someone shot a current of electricity through her body. Ember 2 gasped at the pain.
"Hey you, come with us," commanded a grey dragon that was accompanied by a navy blue dragon.
Ember 2 followed the two strong dragons into a chamber, where at the end sat Red with Burn.
"You! You tricked me!" she snarled at Burn, running at him. The dragons shocked Ember 2 again.
"I'm so sorry Ember!" Burn exclaimed.
"You ba!" Ember 2 screamed, sinking her teeth into one muscled arm. The dragons shocked her again and she then saw they were using long, sharp metal poles, purple electricity buzzing at the end.
"Okay girly, I want some answers, that might help me in my plans, no meddling!" shouted Red.
"Or?"
"Or we shall make you tell us," he said smiling evilly. Burn felt guilt inside him. It was something painful and guilt was something he had never felt before, along with love. Yet he could not rush forward, for chains tied one of his front legs up.
"Right, where does Spyro live?" demanded Red.
"At the lake," Ember 2 lied. The dragons stung her again.
"Don't toy with me, we've searched there!"
"Okay, he lives with me!"
"Not enough information!" shouted Red, signalling for the dragons to shock her yet again. She knew Red was going to say that.
"I'm not going to tell you!"
"Then we will have to question you later," Red said calmly, trying to keep in his rage. The unnamed dragons electrocuted her for a longer time.
When she was released, Burn was able to go over to her. She lay on the cold floor, her eyes wide.
"I'm so sorry," he whispered kissing her cheek.
"I don't want your pity!" she snapped, jumping up and running out of the chamber.
The professor just arrived back from spending a few nights at Blink's house and began to continue working on new inventions. Then he noticed broken glass on the tiled floor and large dragon footprints everywhere.
"Oh…my…god! Red's escaped!" exclaimed the mole, dropping his notepad…
