Futoi-Chans POV:
Suddenly, Jessica drops the bag I'm in. I cant really see or hear what is happening. I peek my eyes out. Jessica and the others humans are walking like zombies towards the outer-areas of the room. But not only them, hundreds of goblins too!
All of these big feet scare me. But no one seems to bee walking in the center of the room. They are all marching in some sort of a circle. Then, I see Mr. Taws. He's holding up his wand like a conductor holds his, umm, conducting thingy.
Like a musician, he guides the crowd to move at a quick speed while maintaining the form.
Why would they all be doing this?
I begin to ask myself. There's only one sense full explanation. Taws must have them under some sort of a spell! I listen very closely with my amphibian-non-existant ears. I heard him laugh loudly and say, "HAHAHA! THIS WILL BE THE END OF EVERYONE!"
He continues, "Now that I know non of the townspeople know where Martin is, I can be rid of them! Soon, every last farmer and goblin in the city will die from walking themselves to the death. It is a shame though, I wanted to keep the evil goblins I created for a while longer. But today they have proven themselves useless."
Worms of disgust, fear, and, anger eat into my vital organs and send the puss of action into my blood stream. I must stop him for the humans before it is too late! I use my brain. The only way to stop the circle would be to take away Mr. Taws wand. So thats what I'm going to do!
The only way to his throne is through the crowd. Its dangerous, but frogger happens to be my best game! I start to hop to the edge of the swarm. They are trance like when they walk. But I can tell they're in pain and fear.
Don't worry. I'll save you. I'll save all of you. Even if goblins are evil, they don't deserve this!
I take a deep frog breath and jump in. I almost land under someone's shoe but I manage to duck right in time. Swiftly, I jump again. This time, however, I land right on someone's shoe! This is perfect! This way I can hop right out when they get to the outside of the spiral. Five minutes of them walking go by, and I find my chance to jump to the outside. With a leap of faith and some luck, I am able to hop away free.
Taws is looking away, distracted by his wife. In the back of my mind I hear him say, "Look my beautiful Sebella, the toilets I had the goblins steal will last us years! What if we run out of toilets! WHAT IF?!"
His wife sighs and says, "You're just upset that your parents never got you a toilet when you were growing up. One, is fine!"
They keep bickering. I don't wait to see who wins this argument and take the wand. Once I have it in my frog mouth, the spell stop in the room. Taws yells, "Wait, what happened to my death circle?!"
His wife yells at him, "Thats why you need a faster killing method like I told you!" They start yelling at each other again. Still not wanting to listen to them argue, I use the wand one last time. My hands return to me. I rise like a sapling and now stand in the corner of the room as an oak. My ocean hair falls in front of my eyes again. And for the first time, my voice returns.
So I say, "Gooooooood Afternoon everybody! Did ya miss me?"
