Chapter 19
Link Saves Chrysalia
Raven swung around at my urgency wondering what I saw. To my surprise Raven didn't run away from Dark Link instead she purred and started rubbing against his legs. "I heard there was a few unwanted guests down here," Dark Link said. "How did you know that," I snapped angrily.
"Because she told me," Dark Link said picking up Raven. "You mean Raven told you!" Pip exclaimed. "Yes," Dark Link answered, "I sent her with you just in case you tried to help Chrysalia escape." "Quick Pip distract Dark Link," Sari said, "I'll get the keys and unlock Chrysalia's cell."
But Pip wasn't listening to Sari, "Why Raven why did you betray us." Raven was feeling worse and worse turning against her friends. "Now," Dark Link said stroking Raven, "What to do with you two?" "Just let them go," I said, "I'll stay here I promise." "Oh but they know where my castle is," Dark Link said, "And they could tell Link and I don't want that to happen."
I frowned, "Link won't understand what Pip is saying." "Yes but Sari could still tell him," Dark Link explained. "Damn I thought that would work," I muttered. "Oh now I know what to do," Dark Link said. "Don't kill them," I said desperately. "I'm not going to kill them," Dark Link said.
A moment later Pip was in my jail cell with me and Sari was in a small cage hanging from a chain connected to ceiling. "Raven you stay here and make sure they don't escape," Dark Link said then left. "What do we do now?" I asked myself. "Well we could try to convince Raven to let us out," Pip answered. "Are you stupid," Sari shrieked from her cage, "Raven betrayed us so she'll most likely not help us escape."
I glanced at Raven who didn't really look like she was paying attention to are conversation. Raven's head was facing the wall and was avoiding any of our gazes. "Shut up I'm going to try anyways," Pip hissed at Sari. "Pip still hisses at you right?" I asked. "Yes," Sari muttered crossly.
"Raven," Pip called, "Please Raven help us please." Raven's ears twitched but she didn't move. "Please Raven," Pip said sounding desperate. Raven looked down at the ground and closed her eyes then Raven stood up and opened her eyes. Raven walked over to the keys on the wall and jumped up and knocked them down with her paw. Raven then picked them up in her mouth and walked over to our cell.
"Here you go," Raven said dropping the keys right outside our jail cell. "Thanks Raven," Pip said, "I knew you couldn't have betrayed us." Pip picked up the keys and rushed over to me. "Thanks Pip," I said taking the keys, "Now let's get out of here."
I unlocked my jail cell and got out and unlocked Sari's cage. "Great that's everyone let's go," I said rushing to the steps. "I'm not going," Raven said. "What but Raven," Pip started. "I'll just tell Dark Link I fell asleep and when I woke up you were gone," Raven explained breaking into Pip's description.
"But I love you," Pip blurted out. "I thought there was something going on between them," I said quietly smiling. Raven turned away from Pip, "I'm sorry Pip but there is still the small chance I could betray you again." "But if you stay with Dark Link the chance of betraying Pip again will rise," I explained.
"You're just saying that," Raven said. "No I'm not and besides Link and I are planning to get rid of Dark Link," I explained, "So you won't have to work for him anymore." Raven got up and walked to the steps, "Okay then let's go I know the way out of this castle."
"Do you really know the way," Sari demanded Raven while we were walking through the maze of hallways, "This seems longer then usual." "That's because we went through a hole and not the entrance," Raven replied. "Wait this way," I said going down this random passage. "But Chrysalia that's not the way to the entrance," Raven called. "I know," I called back, "There's something I need to get first." "Hey Chrysalia wait up," Pip called rushing down the hallway after me. Raven and Sari glanced at each other then ran down the hallway after Pip.
"Okay mister locked door," I said to a door, "You like to play tough." "Um Chrysalia that's a door," Sari pointed out. "I know that now shut up!" I shouted. "I see your attitude hasn't changed," Sari muttered. I zapped the lock but nothing happened and there was silence for a moment.
"Um isn't that supposed to do something?" Raven asked. "Okay then my anger point has reached its limit," I said then shouted, "Take this!" I kicked down the door and everyone was stunned for a moment. "I don't think I want to get on her bad side ever again," Sari said.
"Hey Sari this room looks similar to that one where we got the last power crystal," I said my anger gone. "Your right," Sari said looking around. "Oh there it is," I said and rushed to an alter with a dome over a crystal. "That looks terrifyingly similar," Sari said. I took the dome off and got the crystal.
"Quick let's go before Dark Link notices," I said holding the crystal. "I think it's a little too late for that," Dark Link said appearing behind me. Raven jumped at Dark Link, "Quick get out of here Chrysalia I'll distract him!" "You little traitor," Dark Link said grabbing Raven and throwing her.
Raven landed near Pip and didn't get up. "No Raven," Pip said desperately. Dark Link appeared by them, "Are you two ready to die." "No!" I shouted. I ran toward Dark Link, I took out my glowing sword, and blocked Dark Link's sword just as he was swinging it down at Raven at Pip.
"How are you using your necklace powers," Dark Link said surprised. "My friends were in danger," I explained, "But my sword is not at its full power if it were it would have gone through your sword." "You want to fight me," Dark Link said. "Correct," I said but then my glowing sword disappeared, "Oh no I used too much magic."
Dark Link pushed me aside, "Now your furry friends will die." I got up and ran in front of my friends as soon as Dark Link began his swing. "I can't stop in mid-swing," Dark Link thought. I closed my eyes and waited but I heard a clang. I opened my eyes and Link was blocking Dark Link's sword with his new sword. "Long time no see Dark Link," Link said.
