Ch.22 Rescue - part.2

Ruby and Sapphire ran as fast as they could back to Darkriver village.

Sapphire: (panting) Tell me again... why are we doing this?

Ruby: A whole village got captured last night, and we're suspecting the UnMythics did this, and now we're trying to find them!

Sapphire: (panting) How are we going to do that?

Ruby: In theory, We're going to "borrow" a blood hound and track them down!

Sapphire: (panting) That's nice... can I catch my breath now?

Ruby: No time for that! What are you, an UnMythic?

Sapphire: You'd be quite surprised...

Ruby and Sapphire continue running until they crash into Midnight.

Midnight: Glad you could make it, Sapphire! How did you escape your mother?

Sapphire: (panting) By jumping out my bedroom window...

Ruby: So... where are we going to get a blood hound to follow us?

Midnight: I got an idea...

Midnight sneaked out of the bushes and vanished.

Sapphire: Do you think he'll get one?

Ruby: Knowing him, he will whether you like it or not.

A few minutes later, Midnight came back with a yapping blood hound. It bounced around Ruby and Sapphire in excitement.

Sapphire: Why didn't you tell me it was so cute?

Ruby: Forgot to mention it.

Midnight: We need to get ahead of the search team!

Sapphire: ... How are we going to get it to... you know.

Midnight: They're trained to sniff out anything and everything. I was thinking we could just lead it to the trail and it would do the rest.

Ruby: Seems simple enough.

Midnight: Come on, we need to go already! Sapphire, mind leading it?

Sapphire: We need to stop calling this hound a "it". Now let's see...

Sapphire looked at the blood hounds collar.

Sapphire: Her name is Mora.

Midnight: Can we go now?

Sapphire: Fine...

Midnight dashed through the tree's and forest. Ruby, Sapphire and the blood hound were close behind. Eventually, they arrive at the river.

Sapphire: This is a river...?

Ruby: It's so small!

Midnight: It gets bigger in the spring...

Sapphire nudged the hound towards the footprints.

Midnight: Now listen, "Mora"... you need to sniff out some UnMythics and find a lot of Vampires in who knows where...

The blood hound sniff the footprints for a good minute.

Ruby: ... Maybe the scent is too stale for Mora to find anything?

Suddenly, the blood hound let out a howl and darted across the river and up the hill.

Midnight: You were saying?

They all start dashing after the hound.

After twenty minutes of running, they arrive at a big, dark building. Sapphire grabbed hold of the hound before it got any further.

Midnight: So THAT'S where they're keeping them...

 Ruby: That place is HUGE!!!

Midnight: How have I never seen this before...?

They all stared at the prison

Sapphire: What are we going to do with Mora?

Midnight: Take it... I mean, her with us. Of course.

Ruby: How are we going to get in without anyone noticing?

Midnight thought for a minute before answering.

Midnight: We need a distraction.

Just then, there was the sound of guns being fired. A explosion sounded and orders being shouted out.

Sapphire: Will that do?

Midnight: Eh... probably.

Midnight motioned for Ruby and Sapphire to follow him. They all sneaked into the prison and crept through the hallways.

Sapphire: (whispering) This is one creepy jail...

Ruby: (whispering) Tell me about it. I wonder where they keep the keys...?

Midnight: (whispering) Who said we would needed keys?

Ruby: Um... I did.

Alarms start to sound as they turn a corner. They crash into a white deer running at top speeds.

Silver: Oh great... just my...

The deer looked at Midnight closely.

Silver: Are you Vampires?

Midnight: Yes... I'm looking for a black fox named Boo.

Silver: Boo's in danger! And so is the rest of Darkriver!

Midnight: Where is he?

Silver: From what I could gather from the guards, Boo's been put in the "Sweet room".

Midnight: And that means... what?

Silver: He has been put in a small room full of cinnamon. Until he admits whatever information he doesn't have, he will have to stay and breath the fresh scent of death.

Ruby: What kind of information?

Silver: I wish I knew...

Midnight: How long has he been in there?

Silver: We were just minding our own business in our cell until the guard dragged him out. Probably thirty minutes ago, I think...

Sapphire:  How did you escape?

Silver: A guard came round and opened the door again. Before he could react I dashed out.

Ruby:  A little risky, don't you think?

Silver: It was a risk I was willing to take. Besides, they'll just put me back in that dirty cell if they caught me or not!

Midnight: We need to find Boo... times getting wasted!

Silver: Follow me! I think I know a way...

Silver sprinted down the halls with Ruby, Midnight and Sapphire on her heels. Mora slipped and skidded after them.
