The land of peace was now the land of grief,as Reed didn't spare anyone in the land.
His monsters seized all the peoples food,animals,even the farm land.
Reed entered into his castle,with his lion by his side,and his guards.
He sat on his throne with his lion beside him,as he smiles devilishly, saying,"Am back for good.And they all....thought they had gotten rid of me,...foolish ",he scoffs.He looks at BLUE, the lion,and says to him," Glad you're back right?",Blue nods and lays close to Reed.It didn't take quite long when a beast came in with an axe on his hand,bowed to him,and said, looking hungry, "Master?!,what about the slaves we carried?, should we kill them?"," No don't kill them.They're slaves,and they deserve to work and serve me.Now,go and give them some work to do"he ordered. The beast bowed again,and walked out.As the beast was going,the cyclops was coming in.His tummy was so huge,and he hand a hairy body.He bowed at Reed and said,"The prisoner has been locked","Oh yes!,the prisoner",he remembered, thinking of what to do,how to punish her.He then thought of something. He looked at the cyclops,who was scratching his hairy tummy,and said,rubbing both his hands,"Take her to the dungeon at the right,straight down","But master?!,that's where the Quake demon stays","Do it or else".Quickly, the cyclops rushed out.
At the dungeon, Deborah was feeling unhappy, because of what was going on.She leaned against the wall,thinking about her grandfather.Wishing he was alive.Just then,she began to hear strange noises inside the dungeon. She became scared,because the noise was close by.Scared,she walked slowly into the dungeon, and to her greatest surprise, she saw two skeletons that were arguing. They both saw her and welcomed her with open arms,"Welcome my Lady, sit with me",one said,dragging her close,"No with me",the other said,pulling her away.The agurement had begun again.The both of them left Deborah, and began to beat themselves up.Deborah quickly intervened, stopping the both of them from breaking their bones.She calmed them both and asked,sitting in their middle,"If I may ask,what's the main reason for this fight anyway? "," I'll tell you","No I'll tell","Easy,one at a time...OK you go first",she said to the one at her left,who suddenly turned emotional and said,"My Darling skeletal. The most beautiful lady in the world,was planning on marrying me.Then...",he looks at the other skeleton, and was full of rage,"...then you..,you took her away from me.She didn't even look at me once when this bone head came","Haha shut up!,who's the bone head you fleshless idiot.Skeletal wasn't planning on marrying you,because she wasn't even looking at your side before.Listen dear..",the one at the right got Deborah's attention, "...skeletal loves me.Every time I look at her with my dashy body,she always smiles at me like this", he then demonstrates it to Deborah, who shooked her head disappointedly and said," Now I get it.You two are fighting over a skeleton who doesn't even love any of you,not even a bit.You came to the conclusion that she wants to marry you, when she hasn't even looked at you or even spoken to you.And you Mr.dashy body,what you called a smile,wasn't a smile at all","Yes it was!,I demonstrated how she smiled at me","So does bending down,hiding your face in fear means smiling to you?",the skeleton thought about it and became sad,"No!,so she doesn't love anyone of us","That means we were fighting for nothing?",the other said.They both became sad,and apologized to each other.Deborah was glad to see two skeletons, hugging out and settling things.Suddenly, she heard a voice that said sweetly,"So cute!!,so we have a peace maker who has finally shot the both of you up".Deborah turned and saw the Cyclops, looking at her.The skeletons were afraid,as they held each other tightly.The Cyclops opened the dungeon and dragged Deborah out,"What have I done now?,let go of me?","I will,but not here",he said,locking the dungeon back and dragging her,"Don't worry my dear!,we're here for you!",one of the skeleton shouted.The other then said to the one shouting, "How long?"," I don't know".Deborah was dragged to a different part of the castle,another dungeon.She was struggling to free herself from the cyclops,who held on tight to her.He got to the dungeon, which was looking really ugly.He opened it and threw her inside.He quickly locked her up and chuckled deeply,"Have fun with your new friend.Let's see how you handle this one"He walks away.Deborah held the protector tightly, as if she had the strength to break it open.She was helpless.
Meanwhile, the maidens and young men that were captured,where kept inside a different dungeon. They were all panicking on how to escape.It turns out that the prince was among them,as he tries his best, with the help of some strong men,to break the protector,but no luck.Lucy who was there,began to feel uncomfortable, as she pushed whosoever that was near her.As she was pushing and helping herself, she saw her two friends, who were happy to see her.They came close to her and began to chat.Other's felt like beating them,because how can they be chatting in the dungeon, when their lives are in danger.Her friends asked her,in a low tone of voice,"Did the monster's drag you away from your mother?",they looked sad.Lucy looked round,then drew them even more closer,and whispered to them,"No,I allowed them to take me,even my mother agreed","But why?","Shhh!,softly.Well...",she blushed,"I did it because of Reed","Reed?!",they asked,still wondering why.Then she said with confidence, and her eyes filled with love,"You girls need to see the way he looked at me inside my house.He stared at me,as if...as if we were meant for each other. So I couldn't help myself but to get myself captured. No matter what I have to do,Reed would be mine".They giggled together, annoying the others even more.That's when the beast,that had gone to see Reed earlier, came with some other beasts,to them out to work.The prince had planned with some men,on how they'll escape.So as soon as the dungeon was opened, the prince and the men,charged at the beasts,fighting them all.The girls all ran out of the dungeon too,supporting the prince and the others,by saying,"Beat them!,kill them!".When they were done binding the beasts,they all turned to leave,but became dumbstruck on seeing Reed in front of them.Fear gripped them all,except the prince,who was ready to fight him.Reed looked at the beasts on the ground,then shooked his head sadly,looking at his prisoners, "I must say,this fools don't even know how to do their job well,right?"," Yes!!!",Lucy and some girls shouted,so that they could be noticed.The prince frowned at him and said,standing tough,"Enough talking Reed.Now is the time for action.I'll make sure I send you back to where you came from",he positioned himself.Reed just stared at him,shrugged his shoulder and said,taking his position too, showing off his muscles,"Action speaks louder than voice Mr".The way he said it,made some girls shriek out of excitement and others whistle.The prince charged at him,but became surprised when he found himself on the ground, "How?!", he wondered. Unknown to him that Reed was fast.He stood up, and threw a punch at Reed,who dodged it,grabbed the hand and threw him to the ground. Quickly, he stood up again,threw a punch,a kick,a double punch and a lower kick.But Reed dodged it, with his hand at his back,as if it was nothing.Then,he didn't want to waste his precious time with someone like the prince.So,he set himself and gave the prince a huge punch on the face,that sent him straight into an open dungeon. The others were flabbergasted, as they couldn't believe their eyes.They turned back to look at Reed,who rubbed his palms together, with anger and said," Anyone else?!".Without wasting time,they all rushed back into the dungeon. Lucy gazed at him, as he walks out of the place majestically.
At the other part of the castle,Deborah was sitting close to the protector, wishing she hadn't open the book,"Everyone's facing different problems, all because of my stupidity. I shouldn't have listened to my step sister.Now she's even denied ever telling me to open it.Oops!,sorry,like I don't know what she's capable of doing.God!!",she rubbed her face,resting her head on the protector. She wasn't even done pouring out her anger,when she heard a slithering noise inside the dungeon. She paused for a minute,to hear the noise again,which she did.It was coming from the dungeon, the one she was in.She thought of moving forward, to see what was that.But luckily for her,she saw what was there,before moving an inch."Oh my God!!",she exclaimed, seeing the mighty worm,with a hundred razor sharp teeth's and horns all over it,facing her cunningly. Deborah held on the protector, trying her best to break it down,but almost got eaten by the quake demon.It charged at her,as she quickly dodged, rumbling the whole place.Reed,who was walking back to his throne,with Blue beside him,felt the rumbling noise,and knew that the quake demon was at work.He had a little curve on the side of his lips,as he turned to Blue and said,"Let's see if Our guest can handle her roommate for long".He walked towards his throne and sat down,still feeling the vibration everywhere.
