What felt like three days had passed and Mirabelle had tried everything to escape from the dungeon. Until she finally heard someone coming down into the dark abyss. It was one of the queen's knight with a bucket of water.

"Please, please! You must let me out! I need to help my brothers! They can't die! I need to save the people! They can't die! Please let me go!" Mirabelle cried out to the knight but at he said was, "Shut up!"

"How could you even let her do this? How can you let her just plague the world like this?" She said to the knight, but he ignored her. "How could you let Morgan Le Fay kill all those people? Not just the Knights you know. Actual people. Families will die. You have a family, I know it I can see you family."

The knight stopped what he was doing and turned to Mirabelle. "How can you tell? I thought your powers were taken away?"

"I'm the next great wizard do you really think a small spell like this one can hold me back?"

"Then why put up a fuss when you know you can escape?"

"Because the rate I'm getting my powers back, everyone will have already died. Even your family. Your beautiful wife and three kids! What are their names? Isabell, Harry and Matilda? Their beautiful kids. It be a shame to see them all dead! And they will if you don't let me out!"

The knight seem very distressed, "I can't let you out! Or they'll kill me!"

"I promise to protect you! I promise to protect your beautiful little family! Now let me out and hurry or the next time you see your family they'll be corpse."

The knight rushed over to Mirabelle and unchained her.

"Thank you." She said, "Now all I need's my cloak."

"If you go straight down the corridor and take a right when I'll meet you at the secret door with your cloak."

Mirabelle nodded her head and took off. About thirty minutes later the knight met her at the door.

"There you are." The knight whispered handing Mirabelle her cloak.

"Thank you!" Before Mirabelle walked out the door the knight grabbed her arm, "For my family."
Mirabelle smiled faintly, "For everyone's family." And with a wave of her cloak she was gone.
