Wow... sorry it took so long but I've been busy. So enough chatter, this is a key point in the story. If I explain it it will spoil it for y'all so lets just get on with the story.

Chapter Three: Shadows

Freya opened her eyes to find herself in a dark gloomy cavern. The air was still and she felt her head a , she glanced to her side. There was a door and the owl that rescued her.

"Hello? Sir where are we?" Freya's voice cracked, her throat was dry like a desert drought. The barn owl turned her way

"Hi, I see you took a nasty hit to the head, we might need to get that looked at... if we weren't in this god damn hell of a hole!" He kicked the door. Freya looked at him, his feathers were much like hers, a good shade of brown. She looked up

"Are you a tyto?" She asked and walked closer. The owl gazed at her his eyes were a dark green, almost black.

"Yes, I'm Zach... but I go by a different name." He said looking up at the ceiling. Freya looked a him raising an eyebrow

"And what name is that?" She sat back down. She was trapped, by now she guessed by the Pure legion. Zach looked at her

"Zephyr..." He looked down and he also sat down. Freya knew this was an owl the Guardians wanted to interrogate... but if he was so bad why hasn't he done anything harmful to me? She questioned herself. Zephyr saw her eyes flicker with fear, he put a wing on her shoulder. Freya drew away with a look of deep thought. "Yes... I know Ga'hoole said I was murderer.. but if so why haven't I killed you? Like my brother, I was famed for a crime that never happened, like my brother we know it was him..." He looked at Freya as if he wanted to know if she believed him.

"Zephyr, I see you have a reason to be in this place than, trying to kill the Pure Legion leader." She said laying on the ground, she looked at at him

"Why would you say I'm here for a reason... I saved you." He replied eyeing the door. Freya nodded slowly

"Yes... but honestly... this is NOT how I want to die!" Freya punched the air. Zephyr went over to her and patted her head.

"I understand... but I have a plan to get outta here." He said, Freya looked up

"And how is that?" She asked Zephyr smiled

"Well, they're going to interrogate us, we escape by running away." He said, Freya shook her head and stood up

"Its not thought though enough." She replied Zephyr shook his head as well

"We can always improvise..." He said with a shrug. Freya paniced

"Were gonna die!" She yelled at him. Zephyr moved back

"Then why am I not dead?" Zephyr asked Freya sat back down

"You make everything so hard." She said Zephyr smiled

"You trust me, I know tyou do." Zephyr replied Freya looked at him

"You speak Krackish?" Freya asked Zephyr nodded

"Learned it some time ago." He replied. Freya shrugged

"Well I guess you know where I'm from?" She asked, Zephyr nodded

"You have a very Krackish accent in your tone. I like it actually." He replied, Freya felt weird at his complement.

"Okay you've-" She was cut off by the door opening, a Pure Legion Guard stood at the entrance.

"The High Tyto needs to see you." He said giving both of them a glare. Freya looked at Zephyr he winked then jumped the Pure Legion guard. THe took his weapon and sliced his throat.

"Well.. I'll follow you then." Freya said, Zephyr turned around

"Shhh...! Its complete silence from here, understand?" He said, Freya nodded. Zephyr beckoned with his wings to come forth. Freya followed him though the windy passage way covered in a dark colored stone. The air was musty and the ground was damp. The sound of foot steps drew close a patrol of five Pure Legion Guards were coming closer.

"On my mark we attack... one, two-" He was cut off by two owls breaking apart for the group and stabbing the others in the necks with what Freya could tell were Ga'Hoolian daggers.

"Come with us!" A male barn owl said grabbing Freya's wing and pulling her forward.

"Let me go!" Zephyr yelled as a female barn owl pulled him away too. The male barn owl felt along the wall the pushed a stone door open into the light. Then the two Tyto's pulled them under a bush.

"What the hell are you doing!" Freya yelled

"My name is Issac, I'm a Ga'Hoolian Special Forces Master Chief." Isaac said, Freya wiggled free. But Isaac grabbed her again

"Let me go!" She said as the female put a sack over Zephyr's head.

"Good job Emily, now, owl. I'm not going to harm you, But who is the other owl with you?" He asked Freya stated to struggle

"HELP!" She cried her panic instinct kicking in. There was rustle in the bush and a barn owl wearing a Relingian Mask with black tinted glass

"Better let this one go." He said Isaac turned to him

"Who are you?" He asked

"MY name is empty since you drained away the love." He replied Freya got up

"No really, tell me now!" Isaac said the owl

"My may is.. The Shadow." Zephyr moved around in the bag

"Hyrum! Help!" He said The Shadow looked at Emily and Isaac

"What have you done with my brother!" He roared, Emily looked at him.

"He was compromising our mission." She replied, Hyrum kicked her face and punched Isaac

"My name is revenge and I'm here save my name.." Hyrum said Isaac got up

"Bastard.. why haven't given up!' He said Hyrum turned to face him, drawing his sword.

"Because, your king and Queen... they're time is up." Freya stepped back at his dark tone. What have I gotten into...
