The knight was following the red girl when she found on her way an area filled with caged. Humans, goblins, orcs, all the species were here.

-Please... save me...

Says one.

-Ugh...

Another grunt discouraged. A human even asks.

-What happened?

Unable to respond, the knight continues to walk to find the girl. On the next clearing the knight find a strange scene.

-Don't you dare move, pig!

The red girl, wearing an apple on her head, scream at an orc who is lying on the ground. She is shooting in his direction with her gun, a sadistic smile on her face, she didn't see the knight who try to be as little as possible.

-Aww... I've got to reload.

She turns to charge her ammunition. Seeing this, the orc stands up and try to move as silence as he can. She suddenly looks in his direction and he stop trembling in fear.

-Wait! Where do you think you're going? Ah... time for some hide and seek, is it? Fine, but you're in for a world of pain when I find you. She starts to chase him, firing with her weapon, the orc immediately starts to run and pass by the knight. The girl too concentrated to see her run and... bump into the Guardian, since she was running the shock is huge and she is stun a little. She then opens her eyes and see the knight.

-Ugh, they got away because of you! On top of that you're stepping in on my turf. Alright then. I'll settle for 1,000,000 gold. If you don't pay, you're going to be a target practice.

The knight, who doesn't have that much money refuse.

-That's what I thought! If you don't have the money, you will be the payment!

She jumps back pointing her gun to the knight. The Guardian just have the time to hide behind a big stone to not become a cheese filled with holes. The wolf run at the girl to distract and try to disarm her, the knight takes out her sword and jump in the melee. The wolf has the barrel of the weapon in her mouth and preventing her to fire, the knight run and hits her with the pommel of her sword, stun, she falls heavily on the ground while the wolf takes her weapon away. She moans, pain in her voice.

-I lost to a wimp like you...? It's okay...it's not like granny saw this.

A boom can be heard when something falls just in front of her. It's a little robotic dog who was floating with a drone.

-Oh dear...

She whispers, a resigned look on her face. The dog starts to fly again and just before leaving a robotic voice says.

-RED HOOD'S DEFEAT CONFIRMED. REPORTING BACK TO THE GREAT GRANNY.

He starts to fly, and the red hood tries to catch him but in vain.

-No! Please! Give me another chance! Oh no...she's definitely gonna kill me...

She turns to look at the knight.

-Do you know what you've done?! Only death await after a loss when you're a part of ''Reservoir Snakes''. It looks like you're going to have to take responsibility for this.

The knight doesn't respond surprised.

-What's with the face!? You've got to protect me, this is your fault.

The knight whisper that there is no problem not too sure about the whole thing being a good idea.

-Yep, that's more like it. Alright, let's go!

*Elvira: She doesn't fear wolves anymore*

They return together in the forest since the knight has a quest to do, saving the Princess is not easy!
