Nicholas's Plan-

Arm was surprised to see his long time friend Pol here to rescue him. He is just so shocked how he was able to get in here.

"What are you doing in here?" Arm asked as he is still shock to see his friend.

Pol took out a knife from his pocket as he began to pick the lock of the cell cage. He was successful as he opened the prison. Pol then use the same knife to pick the locks from the chains that were on Arm's wrist and Ankles.

"There is not a lot of time left. Soon the guards will be here and I won't be able to fight them off. I have on smoke bomb left to at lest get us out in here." Pol explained as he dropped Arm's chains.

"You were the ones who set all those bombs?" Arm asked.

"Yes, now let's go." Pol prompted as he drags his Arm by the hand as they escape together.

Arm is still very confused on what's going on here but he knew life or death is on the line here. Pol was here and was helping him escape this hell hole in the kings palace. Even though he is still sad about Pete that Pete no longer loves him, he had to leave here without him and save himself.

Pol stoped running as he heard footsteps down the halls.

"Keep your voice down. In coming guards are here." Pol whispered to Arm to keep quiet so they don't capture them.

"What are we going to do?" Arm whispered as he asked his find now what.

Pol scanned his eyes as he is tryin to remember something that someone told him.

"There is an exit from here but.....it's risky." Pol admitted.

"Risky?!" Arm almost yelled.

"Shh! Can you keep your voice down. I have an idea. Just stay close to me." Pol said as he revealed a smoke bomb from one of his sleeves that he has been hiding.

Pol took out a lighter as he lit up the string and throw it across the hall that were consumed by running guards.

"Cover your ears and run as soon as you hear the boom." 

Arm and Pol waited as the explosion went off, the two men ran down the hall as Pol did say it was risky but the cloud of smoke and the amount of injured guards in the way, made their chances a lot easier to get by. Pol found the door but to no avail, it was locked and boarded up. Arm was shocked that their only chance to escape was over.

"What now?" Arm yelled through the commotion that was going on.

Pol still kept his calm as he decided to kick the door with his foot as hard as he could. Arm was worried as he need to hurry up or more guards will come.

"Don't just stand there. HELP GOD DAMN IT!" Pol yelled and Arm started to kick his food at the door as hard as he can.

Suddenly the door broke as the board was plowed open. The two boys had a brief small of victory but they had no time to celebrate as he needed to get out now.

"HEY YOU!" A guard shouted at them and the boys ran through the broken door together. The guard tried to chance but he was too injured to do anything.

On a waited horse, Pol and Arm got on the horse back as they ride off together away from the kings Palace in one piece.

Arm noticed that Pol was not taking him home but somewhere far from out of town. Arm is not sure where but he trust his friend. Pol horse came to a stop as the were in front of a large mini castle. The sun finally rose up as it was now day time. Arm climbed off the horse as Pol walked towards the castle.

"Wait? Where are we exactly?" Arm asked.

"You will see." Pol said as he proceeded to walk to the castle. Arm sighed as he just follows his friend inside.

Inside the castle was empty and looked almost deserted. Arm is wondering how Pol found this place anyways. The walked the lonely halls as they came across a large door in front of them. Pol pushed It open as it revealed four guards in a throne in with a someone already sitting on it.

As Arm walked closer he recognized the figure that was sitting on the throne as well a young boy hanged from behind the throne with chains around his wrist. He looked all beaten up and bruised. Arm was at a disbelief.

"Arm, finally you are free from the kings prison." The man on the throne spoke.

Arm took his attention to him as he changed his expression.

"Prince Jake or should I call you by your real name Nicholas." Arm said as he stood face to face with his foster brother.

Jake grinned as he haven't heard his real name in so long. He called himself Jake as it was given to him when he left their foster home and got adopted by a royal family. Arm stayed in foster for years until he too got adopted to a regular commoner family as Arm felt happy to have found a home and people who wanted him.

"It's been too long Arm. I have to say I did miss my brother. You were always kind to me back when we were young foster kids." Jake admitted.

"Then why did it take you so long to show your face to me? You became a prince and started your new life. You completely lost contact with me when you became important. I no longer think of you as my brother. Not anymore." Arm admit as he felt hurt. 

Nicholas promised that they would be adopted together with the same family but he was chosen. He left to be a prince and Arm just became commoner.

"So this is the thanks I get for having your best friend Pol risk his life to save you? I am trying to help you." 

"Help me with what exactly?"Arm asked the prince.

"I know you lost the love of your life Pete to the King. Pol informed of your ex fiancé. I lost someone I love too. If we can help each other, we both will get our happy ending." Jake promises.

"How? Pete doesn't want me back. He loves the king Nicholas." Arm reminds him. Just the mention of Pete hurts his heart.

"You're Pete's first love. No one can forget the ones who opened their hearts too. There is always those lingering feelings that they were attracted to us in the first place. Pete is confused and he may think what he and king have is love but it's all lust." Jake tries to convince Arm.

Jake needs Arm to not give up as Arm can really help him with his next part of his plan. He has planned to get back with Vegas as he felt that Khun Gun took that from him. Now that King Gun is dead, another problem emerges as Pete became Vegas's suitor but Arm so happens to be Pete's ex fiancé. 

Jake sat up from the throne and walked towards his old brother as he placed a hand on his shoulders.

"I have a way to help you get Pete back" Jake admitted to Arm.

"How?"

"The child. If we get rid of the unborn child, Vegas will feel as if Pete can no longer offer him anything. They are only together because Pete is pregnant. If we kill the baby, Pete will be all yours." Jake said as he tells Arm his true plan.

Arm felt a surge of hope as Jake told him his plan. Without the child, the king will no longer need Pete. Arm couldn't help put grin of the thought and Jake grinned as he finally got Arm on the same page as him.
