Chapter Seven

Michael normally would have found this funny, except he could not bring himself to laugh at a time like this. How would they get away and save Robert? Maybe the captain already knew about Prince in the woods. They would need a miracle now to save them.

The fire died downed after a while and most of the heartless started towards their tents. Prince was hiding with the trees looking at the scene below. "Getting that kid out of the tent is going to make it more difficult," he thought, "Nevertheless this should be easy." He slowly made his way to the encampment, so not to catch anyone's attention. He crept up to the tent where Robert was kept. He could see the shadow of the captain being cast against the side. He seemed to be getting into some sort of bed he had made.

Prince waited for a while until he was sure that the captain was asleep. He looked around to see if anyone was in front of the tent. He pulled open the flap and entered. Robert wasn't there. He saw the captain curled into a ball trying to keep warm under his blanket. Suddenly Prince heard a small scratching sound. He looked to his right and saw a chest. Keeping his eye on the leader he went over to it. He flipped open the lock and opened the lid. Robert was lying there all tied up and gagged. Prince put his finger to his lips and began to untie him.

They both started to creep out of the tent when they heard a groan behind them. They both turned around to see the leader sit up and open his eyes. The captain immediately knew what was going on and yelled for his soldiers. Prince and Robert both ran as fast as they could. They came up upon Michael and Mario. Prince took out his knife and cut the ropes. He helped both of them up and they escaped into the darkness.

"No!" they could hear the leader yell behind them along with many obscenities. They four of them kept running as quickly as they could no longer see the encampment. Suddenly Mario ran into something. "Ouchie wa wa!" was all he could make out before he was knocked flat on his back. Michael looked up and saw what had hit Mario. It was a large plant type thing with a top that opened up to reveal several rows of sharp teeth. The plant lunged forward to bite Michael but Prince pushed him out of the way. He fell to the ground and hit his head on something hard. His vision started to darken and the last thing he saw was Mario smashing the plant's head with another hammer. "Where does he keep getting those things!" Michael wondered before he slipped into unconsciousness.

))))))) The eighth chapter should be done soon and I think it will be pretty good. Now, that I'm writing more and more of this story I have a better idea of where it's going and I might not be able to put in all the characters you want. Sorry! Still, feel free to tell me where you think they could go and I'll try my best to put them in the story, even if just for a few lines. Also Clockwerk, I know exactly where Fayt is coming in now, and I can tell you that he'll be there soon! One more thing, if you could check out my other story called "Dead Night" and tell me what you think that'd be great! Anyways that's all folks and don't forget to review the story people!
