Avalice's Freedom Fighter

Chapter 6: Cold Templed Battle

3rd POV

As the sun begins to set over the Valley Region, Lilac, Carol, and Zach arrives at the Ancient Temple, where they find Gong, the General of Shang Tu's Army, standing guard at the entrance. 

Lilac: "General Gong!" 

Gong noticed Lilac & Carol, noticing Zach too and walks over to them, unamused by there presence. 

Gong: "Oh its you two, and I see you two got yourselves a boyfriend."

 Both girls blushed at this from the accusation of being the hedgehog's girlfriends.

Lilac: "What?! NO NO NO! THATS NOT IT!"

Carol: "We only just meet tho! thoiwouldn'tmind"

Zach then fake coughs at this and interrupts the conversation into a more serious note.

Zach: "Anyway, We have to talk to you. The Kingdom Stone is in danger!"

Gong: "Don't be ridiculous! Nothing gets past MY nose!"

Zach: 'Yeah sure, in about 30 seconds or so a truck will go past you.'

Just then, the Frost Knight, Lady Neera Li , appears on the scene, dropping in next to Gong.

Neera: "What is the meaning of this?"

Lilac notices Neera and respectfully bows before her, followed by Carol and Zach.

Lilac: "We mean no disrespect, we're just trying to -"

Neera: "You heard what the General said. There is nothing to worry about."

Lilac/Carol: "But-"

Neera: "Don't make me repeat myself, and you."

Zach stood up and looks around, wondering who is she calling before realizing it was him. He then stood up.

Zach: "Me?"

Neera: "Yes you, are you Zach Freed, the Neon Speedster running around Shang Mu?"

Both Carol and Lilac turns to the nervous hedgehog, who was looking away and sweating a little. The Wildcat then remembers the news yesterday about the same neon hedgehog.

Carol: "Wait, I remember now, you were the one of the news! The hedgehog who was running around in Shang Mu!"

Gong: "Wait he's the guy? I thought it was a robot malfunction but a hedgehog that fast? How is that even possible?"

Zach: "Ehehe....heh...." he nervously chuckled.

Lilac: "Zach, what did you even do!?"

Zach: "Nothing! I was just on top of a high building and a helicopter suddenly told me to get down....oh."

Neera: "Doesn't matter, The Majister was sent a request to invite you to the palace. He would like to have a word to you, hedgehog."

Lilac, Carol, and Zach then notice the ground beginning to shake. Suddenly, a Shang Mu truck appears out of nowhere, and the girls quickly duck out of way as it barges through the Temple, catching Gong & Neera by surprise.

Gong: "It's an ambush!"

Zach: 'Told ya.'

Neera: "Gong, after the truck, I'll deal with Zach."

Lilac and Carol then took the chance and went after the Shang Mu truck.

Lilac: "Follow me!"

Lilac & Carol enters the Ancient Temple, determined to save the Kingdom Stone before it's too late.
