13.
Dougie, Harry and I were sneaking through the halls of the palace. Dougie kept us invisible, I didn't know he could turn others invisible as well but that just makes it cooler. Anyway we kept extra quiet while passing guards or soldier, looking for Danny.
It was really weird how we could just walk by without them noticing because we could still see each other. .
We searched and searched but there was no Danny to be found. Just when all hope was about to be lost we heard screaming down the hall. It was Dax, but we couldn't understand what he was saying so we followed his sound.
We came to a weird bright white room with no windows. The door was half open so we carefully went in trying not to touch the door. Once there we found Danny still chained by hi feet and standing before Dax. There was a hurt man as well, It looked really serious and he clearly was in a lot of pain and there was another guard who I hadn't seen before.
I had to hold myself in to not jump at Danny the second I saw him. I was so happy we found him and that we found him alive. But my happiness was interrupted.
'What do you mean you can't heal him?' Dax yelled at Danny.
'I haven't got any energy left to give to him' Danny replied. And now he mentioned it he looked exhausted and was trembling on his feet.
'Just do it!' Dax said angry and took Danny his hair and dragged him to the hurt man. 'Go on, heal him'
Danny sighed and laid his hand on the wound. He took a deep breath and his hand started glowing. He pressed his eyes together when the light was starting to fade. He was trying to keep it glowing as long as he could. But it was no use.
Danny had to hold himself up by the table, he was that exhausted. Dax looked down on the hurt man and saw that his wounds had hardly healed. He abruptly turned around and held out his hand to Danny. Danny was thrown against the wall and struggled to breath as an invisible force was chocking him. This is Dax's power? He's so powerful!
Dax raised his hand causing Danny to lift from the ground and hanging in the air as far as his chains let him while being strangled.
'N..' I wanted to shout "no" but Harry covered my mouth and Dougie gestured I should stay silent. So I started struggling. He can't do that to Danny, he's killing him can't they see!
But what is the use of struggling with someone who has super strength as power? That's right.. it's no use.
To my surprise my attempt to shout remained unnoticed and Dax carried on. In the mean time Harry was still holding me.
'I didn't go to all that trouble to catch you so you could just say you're out of energy!' Dax said with his teeth pressed together.
Danny had been hanging there for quite some time now and he was getting out of breath. I could see how his attempts to get free were losing force and he was getting paler and paler.
Suddenly Dax lowered his arm and Danny fell down on the ground coughing and gasping for breath.
'But you're even less use to me death..' Dax said while turning around and stroking the wounded man's head. 'You'll be better soon Rima, I promise'
Rima managed a nod a weak smile before passing out. I could see how Dax's face turned into rage and turned to Danny again.
Danny, who was still lying on the ground recovering, saw what was coming this time and created a shield around him.
I had expected Dax to be even more outraged by Danny's act of self defense but he just smiled. He just smiled evilly and his bright green eyes were up to no good.
He took a step aside and this is when the guard came in the picture. He walked to Danny and when he came to Danny's shield he just went through it, it had to affect on him. Danny looked shocked and quickly got on his feet again.
Dougie and Harry shared worried looks with each other. They hadn't seen that one coming.. After the shock was over I started struggling again, as hard as I could. If Harry and Dougie had interfered we could have been out of here already!
'Calm down' Harry whispered in my ear. Easy for him to say, if it was Dougie out there instead of Danny I bet he couldn't just stand there as well..
The guard, who was really big two heads bigger than Danny, bended over and whispered something in Danny's ear. Fear was taking over Danny's face. I never saw him so afraid and the look on his face alone was killing me. His terrified blue eyes looked in my direction, almost right into my eyes and that killed me even more.
'Go save him!' I said to Harry
'Ssssht' he said to me but Dax was too busy enjoying the moment to notice anything else.
'Danny is the strongest on the planet, he just doesn't know he has these other powers. It's time that he figures that out'
'But how? How is he supposed to figure that out?' I whispered this time
Harry wanted to answer but the guard took Danny by his belly and threw him across the room, against the wall and fell on the floor, not moving at all.
Harry was still holding me so I couldn't move but I saw his shocked face. 'Come on Danny, get up' he whispered.
For Dougie it was also getting hard to just stand watching. He had turned his hands into fists and he was biting his lip. Danny is Dougie's best friend, and seeing him being beat up like that was getting too much.
We all looked at Danny who still hadn't moved at all. In the mean time the guard was walking towards Danny for the next round.
'Please Danny, get up' I whispered as a tear was falling down my face.
Sorry it took so long to update!
