Rigel was out in the kingdom hiding in the darkness as he maneuvered throughout the kingdom. Rigel was on a mission and that was to determine who it was he saw that looked so familiar to him. As he back tracked their steps he weaved in and out of the shadows. When he heard foot steps coming towards him he would hide in the darkest part of the nearest shadow until the foot steps were far away. After a couple minutes of traveling throughout the shadows he arrived at the location where he saw the familiar figure.

"Let's see if I were to put human slaves somewhere for the night where would I put them." He thought to himself.

Rigel begins to look in different sheds and warehouses but, he couldn't find where the slaves were being put for the night. After a while he thought he should quit for the night but he heard the loud crash of metal coming from one of the previous sheds he checked out so he went to check it again. When he arrived at the shed he peaked around the corner and saw two lion people crawling out of a hole in the ground that was hidden by some metal shelves.

"So theirs a hidden room their." He said to himself.

Rigel hides behind the shed until he heard the lion people leave the shed. Once they are far enough away from the shed Rigel sneak into the shed. He notices that they moved the metal shelves in front of the hole again so he decided to carefully move them so he could get behind them in order to go into the hole that was behind them. Once he was down the hole it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything.

"Is anybody down here." He whispered.

He didn't get any response but, he heard the movement of chains. The only problem was that Rigel had no source of light. He decided to take a few small steps closer into the darkened room.

"Hello is anybody here?" He whispered.

Still he got no response so he decided to enhance one of his arrows with fire in order to get some light.

"Enhanced arrow: flame form."

When he enhanced flame powers into his arrow he heard a voice.

"Now." Said the voice.

Before Rigel could do anything he was tackled to the ground and his arrow got knocked out of his hand and landed a few feet away from him. Rigel tried to get out from under the person but, the person was wrapping their hands around his neck so tightly that he could barely breathe.

"Who are you and what are you doing here." Said the voice he heard earlier.

Surprisingly he felt like he heard the voice before but he still he wasn't able to tell who it was or if it was his imagination.

"C... Can't b... breath."

The person loosens their grip on Rigel's neck a little bit, enough for him to breath.

"I came here looking for someone."

"Who were you looking for?" Said the person with their hands around Rigels neck.

"I don't know who it is I just know that they looked familiar so I came to see if I could determine who it was or if I was just imagining things."

Someone else picks up Rigels flaming arrow and hands it to the person on top of Rigel.

"Let's see who it is that came down here." Said the person on top of Rigel.

The person began moving the arrow closer to Rigels face until his face was lit up. The person on top of Rigel could see his face but, he couldn't see who was on top of him.

"Rigel is it really you." Said the person on top of Rigel.

The person on top of Rigel drops the arrow and sits up but, is still on Rigel to make sure he can't run if he tries to.
