Chapter 3- Ambush

I was praying for Zammorack at his church when it was time. We had to meet Alexis for information. I went to the house and saw Katrine. She was waiting for Alexis. I sat down on the smith shop's roof. For cover, I could swing down into the shop, if a bowman would try to shoot me. I could easily jump from this roof to the meeting roof. Everything was fine.

Finally Alexis came. She walked casually to the house, then Katrine let down a rope. Alexis climbed up, and they started talking. Then everything happened at once.
There was a fire in the general store. Then three Phoenix members jumped onto the clothing shop and started lighting and firing fire arrows with their crossbows. They hadn't seen me. I jumped over to the house and threw Katrina into our trapdoor. Then I blocked an arrow with my light black armor. I pushed Alexis off and ran into the potion shop. I hid behind a desk with Alexis.

"You traitor!" I snapped.

"No they followed me for some reason! I didn't know!" Alexis started sobbing.

"O gosh, tough up!" I snapped again, but soon crossbow bolts hit the window. I went through that window and ran to the fountain with Alexis. I pushed her in the fountain and jumped in my self. There, the crossbows would lose their fire and become harmless to my light but tough armor. I swam and pulled Alexis to the other side of the fountain, but then she took control. She threw me out, and ran north. I caught up with her, then we ran more north. "Where are you going?!"

"To the only place I know!" Alexis yelled, running harder. Then she turned east, and I did not follow her. I knew she was running to hide in the Lumber Yard. I turned back, to get Katrine. But what I saw was different. Five Phoenixes were right next to me. They started shooting. I ducked in the house estate guy's house, and then raced to Katrina on the rooftops. When I got there, Katrine was fighting with her bodyguards. The Phoenix gang had practically taken over Varrock, in gang wise. Most of our thieves were just getting out and fighting. It was chaos.

"Katrina! It's too late! Just get out!" I yelled. She looked at me, then raced northwest. I was cornered with twenty Phoenix gang members boring down on me. They all fired at me. Suddenly I saw Straven. He snickered at me.

"Did you think you could defeat us?" Straven said. "Now I have the 2nd in command. Ha Ha Ha!" He flicked his fingers, but I was gone. I was headed toward the lumber yard. When I finally got there, I saw Alexis with a crossbow pointed at the city. When she saw me, she sighed. She climbed down.

"Are you ok?" Alexis asked.

"Yes, I'm fine you?" I answered and asked.

"Ya. I'm sorry about the phoenix gang and all that." She said. I started walking towards AlKarid. She followed me. "Where we going?"

"AlKarid" I snapped, then realizing she had never been outside the city, recoiled. "AlKarid is a different kingdom, so we would be safe there. Ok it's just a desert. Really hot. Tell me if you need to buy some water."

"Ok" Alexis said, enjoying the sites until we got to AlKarid. We got in, and we started right through the middle, for I easily killed the scorpions. Alexis was easily dismayed, for she was used to a humid climate.

But everything happened again. Twenty scorpions closed in on us. Alexis was too weak to fight, and I was exhausted. I didn't know if I would get out of this…
