Sarah's adventures: battle for the key

Chapter 11: electrocution

Sarah woke up, doris and drained of energy. She could bravely remember what happened before she was knocked out. Her body ached as the room became clear. She tried to lift herself but something was off. She lifted her head realizing she was floating several feet in the air.

Looking around, it was a fairly dark room except for the light coming from the corner of her eyes. She looked to the left and right of her realizing she was in some sort of contraption. Her hands and feet were in some sort of black orbs that were connected by blue electricity. She had seen this somewhere before, but where?

"I see our guest is awake." She heard a voice say. Turning her head she noticed a familiar desk. Leaning against it was Maleficent and Syndrome. Behind the desk sat Evelyn deavor.

"Maleficent, what's this all about."

"You like, took me 3 days to rebuild." He spoke while patting the desk. He then turned to Maleficent . "You sure we're gonna get her to talk before Hades needs to pull from his lake of dead souls. Not that I care but-"

"Silence" Maleficent shouted at him "we don't want to ruin the surprise for our dear guest." She then turned to Sarah "I should warn you that you are about to experience some excruciating pain if you don't give us answers."

"You know I'm not gonna tell you anything." Sarah stated.

"Maybe a demonstration will help." She turned to Evelyn "go ahead."

Sarah screamed as she felt several volts of electricity run through her body for a good 5 seconds. Once done her body dropped forward, hurting all over.

"I'll be back to collect her later. Do what you must to get her to talk, but do not kill her!" Maleficent said as she left the room. Once she did, Syndrome turned and looked at Sarah.

"You know kid, you really are something. A Jedi who knows what she wants. But you know what we want, that lovely little key of yours." He said getting straight to the point.

"I already told you, it's in my locker." Sarah said.

Syndrome pointed at Evelyn as another round of electricity flew through her.

"Yes and you sent us on a wild goose chase. We searched that building from top to bottom and found nothing!" He shouted.

"Well clearly you haven't looked hard enough!" She groaned, knowing it was somewhere in the school, she made sure of that. Just not in her locker. Again, another round went through her body.

"Painful isn't it, you know it's easier to just give it up. So where is that key!"

"You know you're not getting it. I'll stop you. I'll save this school and the kingdom."

"Please," Evelyn said as she stood up "You think the world should put trust in a kid. Because you've got a Jedi robe and magical powers. The rest of the world is supposed to put their lives in your hands."

"Why should you get a say, It's not like you contributed to this, you're just pushing buttons."

"Oh really," she said as she clicked another button. This time a screen turned on, on the back wall of the room. On it was still a blue and white pixelated image.

"What's that?" Sarah asked

"This is how my screen saver invention operates. A code that messes with the mind itself. Only problem is, it doesn't work on some characters, including yourself cause of your stupid force powers." Evelyn responded.

"Why recreate it?" Sarah asked in confusion.

"I only said some, once we get that key we will be able to build an army of hero's to take down that kingdom. After that, the reputations of hero's will be ruined."

"And will finally take over that kingdom once and for all, like we were always meant to do" syndrome added.

"You know that's not why you were created. You were created to be the villain, the one who loses." Sarah said through gritted teeth.

"Will see about that." He said and again she was shocked.

This went on for another hour, asking questions that resulted in more bickering. By the time they were done, Sarah's hair was frizzy and burns covered her body. That's when Maleficent returned. Sarah lifted her head slightly to see Cruella and Maleficent enter.

"You a genius darling, an absolute genius!" Cruella laughed as they entered. She looked to be caring some sort of basket in one hand, and her long cigarette in the other. The two were chuckling to themselves until they finally decided to look up at her.

"Yike, what did you guys do to her?" Cruella asked.

"Kids a refuser, I don't know how you're gonna get her to talk Mal if she won't talk though this."  Syndrome said.

A small smile appeared on Cruella's face. "Mind if I add something?"

"Go ahead." Evelyn said as she reliced sarah.
Sarah's face lit up as she dropped to the floor. She groaned as her body made contact, that was going to leave a mark. She weakly lifted her head as watched a cruella knelt down in front of her. She was about to drop her head when Cruella placed her hand under Sarah's chin. "Looks like he missed a spot."

Sarah let out a dry yell as Cruella shoved her cigarette into her forehead. "How I live the sounds of childrens' screams." Cruella laughed as the burn began to blister.

Tears fell across Sarah's face as Cruella let go of her head. She dropped it back onto the metal floor, sniffing. She hasn't been in this much pain in years. Maybe she should just give up the keys location now.

No, she couldn't. She would fight till the ends of the earth took the kingdom and earth safe from villains hands.

"Poor Sarah, she can't even move." Maleficent mocked as she taped her captor to the ground. A green spew of light flashed and hit Sarah's body making her float in the air once more. She tried to move but her body was too weak to even fight.

Cruella then changed Sarah from her jedi attire to the uniforms all the other kids had. "There, much more appropriate for a girl of your stature." Cruella chuckled. Sarah gave her the weakest yet angry look she could.

"Indeed" Maleficent said with a wicked smile as she looked at sarah. She could feel Maleficent staring deep into her soul.
"Will try something else a bit later, for now." She used her scepter to pull Sarah towards her until she was resting bridle style in her arms. "You have your lessons."

Sarah laid helplessly in Maleficent's arms as the two of them left the room

Author notes: 2/13/23
This was the worst chapter I've written. I honestly hate it but I couldn't think of anything else to put here. Not to mention dialog was a challenge which it usually isn't for me. Oh well, I promise the next two chapters are longer and better then this garbage. So please keep reading!
