Michael's adventure

Part 37

Ranboo, sluggish, made his way to the mainland on the bridge, Michael cautiously following. He knew he should have gotten Tubbo, but there was no time, Ranboo was going somewhere, whether Michael got Tubbo or not.

Ranboo made it most of the way across from the bridge, stopping dead in his tracks. Michael quickly ducked down behind a pillar, and peeked his head around the side, just enough to see. Ranboo hopped onto the ledge, put his armor on, and dived into the ocean. Michael ran to the edge to see what had just happened.

Ranboo started swimming toward the prison. Michael didn't know how to swim so he ran as fast as he could to the mainland and watched on the coastline. He ran out waist depth, knowing if he went any deeper the waves would take him and he would drown. The water irritated his skin but that was of little importance at the moment. He was anxiously watching the water when a crow landed on his shoulder. Michael put out a finger for the crow to go onto, and it did. He pulled the crow to face him and pet it. "Go get Tubbo". The crow nodded and flew away towards Snowchester. Phil always had crows flying around the server, they were the people's way of sending messages to each other.

Michael looks back out to the horizon but doesn't see Ranboo. Michael ducks his head under the water, opening his eyes, the saltwater burning them. He still didn't see his dad. Michael's nerves begin to take over, he begins to pace back and forth. After a few minutes of trying to find his dad, a large boom could be heard from the prison, catching Michael's attention. Seconds later a loud alarm begins to blare along with red and white lights flashing.

Michael turns to the prison entrance and sees dozens of guards going in, all strapped with full Netherite armor and weapons. They were yelling something, but to Michael it was incoherent.
