      So, the Dungeons weren't so cozy. I felt horrible for Ellisse for even having to put up with being there. I shouldn't of even let that deer look at her, and it imprionsed her. But... that wouldn't matter. I was gonna find her.
"What did you say the cage looked like?"Loona asked, looking around at all the cages that seemed almost identical to Ellisse's
" I think I'll know it when I see it."I explained, but no one else really seemed to get it. "Wow, that really helps."Aella muttered. I limped down the stone pathway we were on, that only seemed to be getting smaller. This dungeon was horrible, it was full of fire and it gave me a deadly aura. The air was like poison, filled with smoke.

    "Mammon said she was special... right? Maybe she's in a more secure cage-cell thingy?"Loona asked, searching the cages, mumbling the occasional, "Is this her?"

"Yeah!"I said, looking through my map. The deeper we got into the dungeons, the more the map started to change. It shifted into the dungeons, showing a map of it. The path was shaped like the outline of a skull, and in the middle it was labeled "Ellisse"
"Guys... I think we got a bit more help from my dad."I showed Loona and Aella the map. "Dang, your dad must really love you, like actually."Loona looked over the map.
"Not really the case."I mumured.

    "Looks like were here, in the start of the dungeons. And Ellisse is in the middle. This might be hard, With Erik, Who's dying, and your broken ankle. But we can do this!"Aella gave an encouraging smile to both of us. I didn't think she really meant what she was saying, but it still felt nice. "Let's get going then."Loona said, walking with the map, "Follow me."She smiled.

     Aella still helped me walk, my broken ankle still didn't seem to be healing. It felt like fire going through my leg, I felt like I couldn't feel anything else but pain. Loona continued to walk, reading off the map. Eric wasn't doing so good, he shivered and twitched more frequently, and he started quoting random phrases and defentions whenever we talked. The dude couldn't handle knowing everything, he just wanted to be the smart one for once. And it possibly costed his sanity. And then, we heard it. The stomping, and the flapping of wings.

"I think we have company!"Aella yelled, right before an angel swooped in, knocking her to floor. Loona took Erik's sword out of his scabbard, pointing it at the angel as more flew towards us. "I'll hold them back!"She told us. I nodded, limping off with Aella.

   That left two of us, Aella and I, to find Ellisse. I looked over the map, flipping it over. A small message in ink wrote, "Thanks for the earrings-Mammon, your dad. P.S, good luck at finding whatshername." That message made me groan, dad could never buy my trust. I gave Aella directions as we walked, and then... the map started to fade back to what it used to look like. Did dad hear what I was thinking about?
"Uhm... Aella?"I showed her the map, she looked confused. "Hurry up!"She yelled, the sounds of wing flapping seemed to be getting closer.

    My limping didn't seem to be helping, and Aella had to look back every minute to see if I fell or something. And then... at last, I saw the cage. It was hanging from the red skies, and under it was a forest of flames. Inside of it... sat Ellisse, curled up in a ball, crying.
