"How are we gonna get outta here?" Lucia asked.
"I don't know let me think." Jake said. Twenty minutes passed in silence them suddenly Jake perked up. "You see those keys?"
"Ya," Lucia exclaimed. "How will we get them?"
"That pole." Jake said, pointing at a fallen poll right outside the cell. Jake put his arm through the bars and could not reach it. The bar was a couple inches away from his fingertips.
"JAKE! LUCIA! I've came to say hi." Jenna cackled swiftly gliding down the hall of the dungeon. The kids heard a weird banging noise as she came close to their cell. The evil witch had kicked the pole towards the cell. "OUCH! She yelped kicking the pole hard. " I'll be back in a few minutes. I've decided to burn you alive instead."
The pole was now in reach of Jakes grasp. He waited till she left to grab the pole. It was just long enough to reach the key. The key fell off the hook and onto the pole. It slid right down the pole into Jakes hand. Jake placed the pole back down on the floor quietly so the witch wouldn't here. He quickly raced to the lock and unlocked the cell. "Oh my god! We escaped!" Jake yelled quietly. He picked up the pole for a weapon. Lucia spotted a bowl of water in the hall and grabbed it. They quickly raced down the hall and found a ladder. They climbed it for approximately 5 minutes till they reached the top. Meanwhile Lucia was still carrying the water trying not to spill a drop.
"Finally. How long was that ladder?" Lucia asked rhetorically. The ladder ended in a weird spot with lots of clothes in it. They slowly dug their way through the hanging clothes till they saw some light. The clothes ended and they were standing in the middle of a closet. They looked to their left and saw the knight suit. Jake pulled off the helmet and saw Lukes rotting head and quickly through it back on. They opened the doors and found their sleeping bags in the room they were gonna stay in.
"I got the gasoline and lighter." The witches voice bellowed down the dungeon hall as she spoke. When she noticed that they were gone she screamed. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" she screeched. The kids could here the scream from above. The witch glided as fast as she could to the ladder and raced up at a speed of thirty seconds.
"FUCK! AHHH!" Jake screamed as he saw the witch burst through the closet.
"Hi kids. How's your nigh going, or should I say night-MARE?!?." The witch cackled. "HAHAHAAAA!"
"I pray to god this works." Lucia said shaking. "Bye bitch!" She ran up to the witch and through the bowl of water on the witch.
"EEEEEK! I will get you for this!" The witch yelled slurring her words as she began to melt. "I hate you, I will..."
"Umm... What just happened?" Jake asked.
"Well before I got trapped here I watched lots of horror movies and the witch would always melt if someone through water on her." Lucia said quivering.
"Let's find our way out of this shit hole." Jake said. They were about to go out into the lobby but they heard weird moans and groans.
"Here we go again." Lucia said picking up a sword from the knight suit.
