The Magical Islands Of Da

Chapter 7.5

Before Cole or Yuna could act, they were also held knifepoint. 

"You two...sit next to Elijah...don't do anything stupid." One of the goons said, Cole and Yuna complied.

Eventually Gedeon and Hadeon walked in, they closed the door when they walked in. Cole looked up to see both brothers walk up. Gedeon kneeled down to get to Cole's eye level. 

"The Topsoil currency, give it to me. You better not hold out on me." Gedeon said.

"Sigh, okay. Let me give it to you, don't hurt them now, please." Cole responded while he pulled out the Topsoil currency.

Gedeon snatched it away from him, he put the currency in their pocket, Gedeon walked to Cole's friends while Hadeon walked up to Cole.

"The vest, take it off and give it to us. You don't deserve the vest; you didn't work for it. Before things get messy, you listen to us, and everyone moves on with their lives." Hadeon said.

Cole didn't know what the next decision was. He looked over at his new friends who looked scared, but his family also came to mind. Cole slowly looked back at Hadeon, he shook his head.

"So, he sent you, w- why didn't you just kill me when you had the chance? When I first came here to this circus fair...you both could have harmed me, but you didn't. Also, if you believe th- that guy, then you're a fool. You think he's gonna help you?" 

Cole stared into Hadeon's eyes

"All he's doing is using you as a pawn; and once he gets what he wants, he will trash you both to the curb." Cole responded.

Hadeon chuckled and socked Cole in the stomach. Cole clenched his stomach and rolled on the floor; his glasses fell off his face. 

"COLE NO!" Yuna screamed, she kneeled beside him.

Cole's eyes shed tears, he took out his handkerchief and wiped his eyes, he slowly sat back up and put his glasses on. Everyone heard something fall on the floor, Gedeon looked at the floor and saw dice on the floor. 

Gedeon looked back at Cole, a bat appeared in Cole's hand from thin air. Cole hit Gedeon and Hadeon with the bat, both knife brothers dropped to the ground. The bat burned orange flames. 

Unfortunately, it disappeared into thin air, Cole put the magic dice back in his satchel. 

Elijah stood up and pulled out a cane, the cane was made of candy cane. He hooked one of the goons with the cane and knocked them into the three other goons; the four goons fell like bowling pins, Yuna quickly got up and looked at both Cole and Elijah. 

The three of them left the room in a haste panic, everything was a mess. 

"Now how do we get out of here? Also, are you THAT strong Cole?"

"No, I'm not, I barely hit them with it! I have a plan B, but it's a little crazy!" Cole yelled as they all ran out of the circus tent. 

"I planned in advance, that my friends is our escape ticket, now let's get to it quickly!" 

It was the hot air balloon, it stood out with a magic aura.

Cole started running to it, however a crowd of people occupied his space; he got separated from the others.

"Cole! Shoot, we lost him! Dang these people. Let's go the other way and meet him there!" Elijah shouted. 

They both took a different route, intending to get to the hot air balloon.

Elijah and Yuna were trying to move past people in the circus, they heard loud thumping behind. 

"Stop them, don't let them get away!" Hadeon shouted, Yuna looked behind her shoulder; she saw Hadeon and two of the goons chasing them.
