Chapter 8
Al, Roy, Winry, and Izumi were hanging helplessly on the the side of the cliff. They had all stopped, hearts racing. So many things happened at once. One of the other cages some distance away, broke and fell to the bottom of the cliff. Al started crying after that. One of the villagers had seen the whole thing and knows now that they're trying to escape.
Izumi heard someone from the other cage yell "MOVE!" She held on tight and started to pull up. "LET'S GO!!" she yelled to the other three.
All three of them let out a groan and started to climb up.
Meanwhile...
Ed and Jack still hung from the poles over the fire place.
"You know, lad. If you hadn't shown up I could've been long gone by now." Jack said, struggling to get free.
Ed was doing the same. "Oh, so this is my fault?" he said, attempting to get some rope in his mouth and started to pull.
A villager came running up to them holding a torch. "AHH! Fie Fie!" he yelled and the others repeated what he said.
Both Ed and Jack looked at the shimmering flame before them like a fly attracted to the light.
A village boy came running across the bridge, yelling and pointing to where the cages were.
There was a moments silence then Jack spoke. "Well, go on! Go get them! Mon licky licky!"
In response the crowd yelled "MON LICKY LICKY!" and ran off, dropping the torch beneath Ed and Jack.
"That's not good..." Ed said, seeing the flame form beneath them.
Jack was already trying to blow out the flame and Ed joined him.
Meanwhile...
Izumi, Roy, Al, and Winry got to the top of the cliff. "We need to cut the rope!" Al said trying to find a way to break it.
"Move!" Roy said, pushing Al to the side a burned the rope with his alchemy.
Winry sighed. "Al, you think you can get us out of this cage using alchemy?" she asked.
Al smiled. "No problem!" he said, ready to clap his hands when he saw the tribe running across the bridge.
"No time!" Izumi yelled, pulling Al forward. "Roll the cage!" she said and pushed the cage forward. They then started tumbling down the hill close behind the other cage which was also rolling down the hill.
"I'M GETTING DIZZY!!! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!" Al yelled as they went flying off a small cliff and crashed into the other cage.
The people in the other cage looked up at them surprise. They too looked extremely dizzy. Izumi was about to say something when they heard the villagers heading their way. "Move!" Izumi heard one of the men say and they picked up the cage like a skirt and started to run. "C'mon!" Izumi said and stuck her legs through the holes and picked up the cage.
Roy sweatdropped and started to run along.
Meanwhile...
Ed and Jack were still furiously trying to put out the flame. Jack was bouncing up and down and his poll fell off and he hit the ground. He kicked up his leg and struggled, getting his legs free.
Ed was still struggling. "HEY!! WHAT ABOUT ME!!?" he yelled, also bouncing up and down until his poll fell off too and he landed ontop of Jack. "Sorry..." he said and rolled off him.
Jack got up, the poll still tied to his back, and he ran across the bridge.
Ed's eyes grew wide. "Don't leave me behind!!!" he yelled and untangled his feet, then scurried after Jack with the poll still attached to his back as well.
Meanwhile...
Al, Izumi, Roy, and Winry's cage was rolling once again. All four of them were yelling their lungs out. The cage swirled and spun then crashed into a boulder and fell into a river, the cage breaking into pieces.
"We're free!" Winry cried happily until she was jerked back by Roy, an arrow barely missing her. "Yieeeeeee!!!" she screamed.
Izumi dove underwater and swam, following the people that were in the other cage. Roy, Winry, and Al did the same while dodging arrows.
Meanwhile...
Ed stuck close behind Jack.
Jack seemed to pay him no mind. Instead he was trying to get the rope and poll off of him. "Bugger! Bugger! Bugger!!" he muttered, having no luck at pulling the rope off. He looked up and saw a villager holding a fork and a knife. He inched sideways tword the villager and grabed the knife and the villager ran away.
Ed didn't have any more luck than Jack did. He started rubbing against the tree hoping it would cut the rope.
Jack ran forward tword two villagers yelling his head off like a maniac. He ran past them and the end of his poll stuck inside two coaconuts. He swung around, one of the coaconuts flew tword one of the villagers who caught it in time before it hit his face. The other coaconut flew tword Ed, barely missing the top of his head but cracked against the tree and the coaconut milk spilled on top of him.
The other villagers that were there started throwing fruit at Jack, which were being impailed at the ends of his poll. The rest of the fruit was thrown tword Ed who was still up against the tree trying to cut the rope.
Meanwhile...
A village boy came up to the rest of the tribe telling them that their gods have escaped. They all scurried away, leaving a confused Izumi, Al, Roy, and Winry behind.
Izumi looked behind her and saw the other men where there, staring at the four of them. "I see we're in the same situation, huh?" said one of the man, panting.
"Looks that way." said Izumi, a little unsure.
"I'm Will Turner." he said. "This is Gibbs and Cotton." he said pointing at two other men.
Izumi pointed to each of her companions. "Al. Roy. Winry. And I'm Izumi."
Al tugged on Izumi's jacket. "We have to go find brother, teacher!"
Will looked at them all. "Did they by any chance take someone from you thinking that they are a god?" he asked.
Roy nodded. "That's right! How did you know?"
"They took someone from us, too." he said and started to climb out of the river.
The man called Gibbs started to run for the ocean. "C'mon, Will!"
Will and the others followed.
Meanwhile...
The villagers were still throwing fruit at Jack and Ed.
"STOP IT!!" Jack yelled.
Ed finally got free of the ropes but was covered in fruits.
The villagers stopped throwing fruit and looked at Jack.
Ed ran over to try and untie Jack but Jack started running to the side of the cliff and flipped over to the other side while pulling Ed along who was holding onto the rope for dear life. Jack landed on his feet at the edge of the other side. The weight of Ed hanging onto the rope and the fruit that was impailed on his poll, pulled him backwards and he fell off.
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" they both yelled.
Ed let go of the rope and fell, hitting bridges on the way down and falling through everyone of them.
Jack's poll got stuck between the two cliffs and the rope started to unwind him, leaving him hanging upside down.
Ed hit the ground finally, looking up to see a little speck hanging from a string which was suppose to be Jack.
Jack's poll then started to slip free. "Bugger!" he muttered then started falling through the same bridges Ed fell through, yelling his head off on the way down.
Ed still lie sprawled on the ground, looking at Jack who was getting closer.
Jack finally hit the ground and heard a loud "OOF!!" when he hit. He then realized that he landed ontop of Ed. "Sorry, mate." he said and rolled off.
They both looked up to see the poll heading their way and landed right in between them, fruit landing all around them.
Meanwhile...
Izumi, Al, Roy, Winry, and the rest were heading tword a black ship on the shore.
"I won't leave without Jack!" said Will.
"And I'm not leaving without brother!!" Al said ready to cry.
Will looked down along the shore to see two little figures emerge from behind the mountain.
"BROTHER!!!" Al cried happily.
Their eyes grew wide when they saw at least 50 villagers chasing right behind them. Ed and Jack were pushing each other out of the way to get away from them.
"Time to go..." Will said quickly and climbed on the ship.
Izumi pulled Al's arm and helped him onto the ship. Roy and Winry got on after them.
Ed and Jack were both yelling their heads off, trying as best they could to keep a good distance between them and the villagers and get to the ship safely.
Jack was the first to get to the ship and he started to clinb. Ed was right behind him. "I never said you could come onto my ship." Jack said looking down at Ed. "Stay behind so they will leave me alone!"
Ed growled. "You think I would be stupid enough to stay behind to save your life?" he said pushing Jack aside to get furthur up just as a wave splashed ontop of them both.
Izumi stuck out her hand and helped Ed up.
"BROTHER!!!" Al yelled, flinging himself into Ed's arms. "I was so worried about you!"
Winry was happy too that she dogpiled them both.
Ed sighed. "Yeah, I'm fine." he said then stuck his hand in his pocket. "Now that we're all together, I think we can leave this place." he said pulling out the remote from before.
Roy looked at it and blinked. "That's right! I've forgotten about that!"
Al, Roy, Winry, and Izumi gathered around Ed. Ed pushed a random button and they were teleported somewhere else.
Jack looked at the spot where the five of them stood, shocked. "Uh...Mr. Gibbs."
"Captain?" said Gibbs.
"Make sure that I don't drink rum for at least another 24 hours!" he said, shoving a rum bottle into Gibbs' hands and walked off, leaving Gibbs behind confused.
