The Escape

Captain Rasel grinned, "are you really going to fake a letter...." he said walking over to her, "this I have to see....."

Jason looked down, "its true...." he sighed, "and I personally don't like it....the people who have taken over...should be stopped but what can we do...."

Will looked at Elizabeth and then Aqua, "yes Kay and I came from a town not far from here....we heard about the rumor....and are planning to head back to our town soon...."

 

"Mmmmm, maybe," Naomi said showing one of her claws, "I just need to perfect her hand writting. But that might take too long too do. I should just use what I have and save some time," she said showing some dry blood on them, "Just some mixtured, a couple of spells, and hearts will shatter."

Aqua glanced at William, "Soon? but the people who go in there are already haveing hard lives. They cant leave," she looked at the castles way, "I heard of that too."

 

Captain Rasel grinned, "whose heart....Jason's.....Isabelle's.....or both?" he laughed.

Jason sighed, "if people don't want to fight....then why should they care....." he said leaning against the house.

Will shook his head, "its not that they don't care.....they just aren't trained to fight.....right Aqua....or are you quite a good fighter?"

 

Naomi laughed hard, "I was thinking about breaking squire boy and the sisters but thats even better! I'll just do over all, but I need blood samples for that," Naomi said.

"I'm sorry, I dont fight. I dont know how and I dont like to kill, no matter who it is," Aqua said.

"Thats understood, we just need people who are willing to might do it," Elizabeth said.

"I'm willing to help though, bring supplies back and forth, even spy a bit," Aqua said glanceing at Elizabeth.

 

Captain Rasel thought, "blood samples....from Isabelle and Jason...?" he said looking over at the stairs, "well I could get the sample from Isabelle...."

Jason smiled, "thats good....thats what I like about you Aqua....your always nice and kind hearted...." he turned to Elizabeth and Will, "do you think we should let her help?"

Will was still a little uneasy, "she can help....but me and Elizabeth don't reveal our identitys until we know we can trust her more...."

 

"Oh Rasel, now didnt we say we wouldnt hurt Isabelle to those fools?" Naomi said sarcastically, "I have some blood from her, but it dose need to be fresh."

"Elizabeth?" Aqua said, "As in Elizabeth Starling?" Elizabeth froze then took off her hood laughing.

"There gose my identiy," Elizabeth said joking around. Aqua froze.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I didnt recognize you before your-"

"Its ok, you dont need to finish that," Elizabeth said standing up, "I dont need any special treamtent. I'm already being foce to be put up with that."

"Oh of course," Aqua said nodding nervously.

 

Captain Rasel pulled out a tiny dagger, "oh come on Naomi....I wasn't going to hurt her that bad....just make a small cut...." he grinned, "I want to see this plan in action...."

Jason looked at Elizabeth, "look I'm sorry for trying to show a little respect...." he sighed before turning to Aqua, "Aqua please....promise me you won't let anyone know about her being here...."

Will sighed, "well that lasted long...." he said, "I guess we need to wait before people leave to start talking about our plans....thinking I'm a knight I should know that....."

 

"Rasel, what are we going to do with you now?" Naomi said getting up and heading to the cell, "The cut cant be small anyway, plus if anyone is going to give it to her, it might as well be me."

"I wont tell anyone, promise," Aqua assured them, "I dont want any more trouble."

"Your really kind. Believe me, this will end soon," Elizabeth said smiling.

"I'll try to be the best help I can," Aqua said.

 

Captain Rasel handed her the dagger, "fine...." he said sitting back down at the table, "just tell me when your finished...."

Jason smiled, "excellent another friend to add to our team....."

Will nodded, "we will need all the help we can get....and not just from fighters...." he smiled at Aqua.

 

"Heh," Naomi said walking out and into the cell, "Now how have we been?" Isabelle was still sitting aganst the wall.

"What are you going to annoy me with now?" Isabelle said coldly.

"Now why be so harsh on us?" Naomi said, Isabelle glared at her, "Oh my, what a gruged."

Aqua smiled and nodded. "I'll be the best I can."

"great, so now that thats out of the way for a bit, want to walk around. These two have been making me sit the whole time," Elizabeth said.

"Of course you-um....that is, Elizabeth," Aqua said hesitating a bit and Elizabeth laughed.

"Dont worry, you'l get use to it," she said.

 

Captain Rasel sat at the table contemplating what the plan was going to be like.

Jason sighed, "we never made you do anything....I just didn't want you going with Naomi....."

Will looked at Elizabeth, "yes your highness...." he said jokingly, "we never forced you to do anything...."

 

"If your going to make me stay here against my will, then cant you at the least leave me alone?" Isabelle said.

"'Fraid not, you are a little uncontrolable for us to let you move around," Naomi said glancing at the shakles. "Besides, you father and sister would want you to confort them."

"then why not take me to them?" Isabelle said acidly.

"Mmmm, nope. dont think I can leave you all together," Naomi said as Isabelle glared at her coldly. "Oh, and speaking of painful," Naomi kicked the cell door open and walked up with her claws showing. "Would you perfer a small scratch with venomouse claws? Or a deep cut from a dagger?"

"What are you-?" Isabelle said about to get up but Naomi cutted her with the dagger down her arm. Isabelle screamed in pain.

"That should be good," Naomi said, "You shouldnt lose so much blood. The cell is filthy enough," Noami said laughing and walking out.

"So true will, you forced me to do nothing," Elizabeth joked while walking with Aqau around the house. Dust caught up to them.

 

Captain Rasel stared out the window from the table.

Jason sighed, "let them walk....after everything we have been through it will help get their minds away from this for a little bit..."

Will sighed, "fine....but if Elizabeth ends up getting captured too....." he said shaking his head.

 

Isabelle dropped on the floor bleeding on her arm. "so much for no pain," she said angerly.

Naomi through the blood off the dagger into a container abd went up with Rasel. "My that was pleasent."

"So are things really going well?" Aqau asked when she petted Dust.

"Depends really," Elizabeth said. *fast forward story* "So things arent going like planned but atleast things cant really get any worse."

"Im so sorry about it," Aqua said.

"Dont worry, it'll be fine," Elizabeth said.

 

Captain Rasel grinned, "so I take it she took it well...."

Jason sighed, "so you said you have a secret spot where all the knights are supposed to meet if theres trouble..."

Will nodded, "yes....but I'm not supposed to tell...I can only show the spot....once we get Isabelle back we can head there....."

 

"You could tell huh?" Naomi said. "She thought it was very generouse that I didnt stab her in the heart. Then again, it might have been a little less painful then what I have in mind."

Elizabeth yawned, "I'm a little tired, I'll see you someother time. Ok?"

"Sure thing," Aqua said, "I have to head back anyway," she turned to Will and Jason, "I'll visit again soon."

 

Captain Rasel laughed, "and what exactly do you have in mind....your stalling Naomi...." he said.

Jason heard Elizabeth and Aqua, "ok....and thanks for helping us Aqua...." he said before turning to Elizabeth, "I can get your bed ready my lady if you want...."

Will shook his head, "you never learn do you...." he sighed.

 

"Stalling? Mwa? Your getting the wrong impression Rasel," Noami said teasly.

"Bye," Aqua said. She went back to the shop and setted up for bed.

Elizabeth shook her head, "I can handle myself, thank you," she said walking in, "Wake me up if anything happens though. And I mean anything." She walked in and went to bed. Dust hung around Will and Jason so did Nova.

 

Captain Rasel grinned, "how about you just tell me more specifically about this plan of yours...."

Jason nodded, "yes my lady...." he said getting Dust into a stall and Nova a nest like structure out of hay, "there we go..." he smiled.

Will yawned, "I'll you all tomorrow.....back to the pub for me....night Elizabeth...." he said walking off.

 

"Maybe in the morning," Naomi said, "Like I said, my mind isnt completly made up. Plus I need to know what reason the lord wants the princesses."

Dust was struggling to get in the stalls.
