Chapter 19
Kidnapped again for Diana
When she woke up, Diana found herself in the most sophisticated cell possible. It was made of metal, and there were glowing bars surrounding the whole room. Beside her, David was awakening from his slumber. He was moaning and groaning, but he seemed okay. Diana helped him up, and he was as equally shocked when he saw the cell he was in.
"Man, am i in metal world? This place is sweet! " he squeaked. Diana glanced at him. " We are prisoners here. I don't enjoy being one, you know. "
David just stared at her. His stomach was churning every 5 milli seconds. That was surely a record. He never felt this weird with anyone. "What kind of hideous place is this, anyway? " he asked her.
"I don't think it is hideous, just hi-tech, that's all."
The two of them started, and twirled behind. There, a very pretty pixie stood tall ( or should i say short ) and glared at both of them. But she was no match for Diana. The three of them stared. Then Opal began to speak. " I should think you like this cell. It is the only one without cameras, and you will be isolated from the rest of the building, because i know you cant escape. "
Diana scowled. It was true. None of the elements can endure lasers. "So, i shall leave you two to yourselves. You shall like that, right? " Now David scowled and tossed an air 'ball ' at Opal. But when it touched the lasers, it reflected back right at him! "Tut tut," Opal said, after David recovered from his own attack. "You have under estimated me, everyone does, " and she walked away, leaving the two teens helpless against their situation.
Artemis was suffering from a weird type of hypertension. He was feeling so weird that he could not describe it. He was nervous to get the element back, he also had to get the heat sensor pop-up to load much more quickly. And that made him feel much worse. He did not want to do this, to be honest, but the power was irresistible. It was, well, powerful. But it had to be removed in an extremely painful way.
Butler and Holly were getting Mulch. They had to use him to break into Koboi labs again, this time for a much more important reason. This considered 2 lives, two very young lives.
After a few hours of stomach aches, Artemis finally saw them return, with the infamous, big, fat, 'hilarious' MULCH. "Hello Mulch Diggums, we meet again. " But without waiting for an answer, Artemis continued. "I am sure you know why we brought you here? "
"Not really. Captain Short said I get big rewards if I completed it. From you, especially." Artemis scowled at Holly, but nevertheless, continued to brief mulch about his mission. "You are here, my friend, to rescue someone of utter importance to the ancient world. "
"Ancient?" groaned Mulch. "And why would Opal want to kidnap people who are ancient? " he asked, with a twitch of suspicion. Artemis almost grinned. "Simply because they hold such magnificent power that even you are no match for them. " Mulch's eyes widened, and he nodded. "Yeah, I will do it, but what do I get?"
This is where Artemis gets thunderstruck. "Isn't that obvious?" he snarled, and he left Mulch's heart to melt on its own.
Diana was not pleased. She was out of magic, and David was so sleepy he had fallen asleep already. She had to get out of here. And quick. The laser heat was not good for their health. She was already feeling uneasy. And obviously David was too, he was waking up.
"Oh my giddy aunt, what's happening to my stomach? " he groaned. Diana smiled and helped him to sit up. He smiled back at her. The two of them just stared into space, sometimes at each other. Then finally, David sighed. "I'm bored, doesn't that pixie have video games or something?" he complained, and all Diana could do was shake her head in utter irritance.
