Captured By Squids *remake*

Chapter 26

(Jerome's POV)

I walked through the tranquil woods, whistling and swinging my Betty in my hand.

"Man, all these trees! Which one would be good to chop down?" I asked myself. Searching my chin, an idea popped into my Bacca brain. Using my natural skills, I scaled a large tree with ease, climbing all the way to the top so I could peek out of the leaves. As I moved away the brain he's and leaves to get a better view, something blue and sparkly caught my eyes.

A river.

I hungrily licked my lips as I thought about the silver fish swimming in it. I quickly looked to see if anyone was watching. Seeing no one, I climbed down the tree and ran to the bank of river.

"Sky and everyone won't mind if I eat, right?" I asked myself. "Nah. They'd understand." I responded, looking hungrily into the clear stream. I watched carefully, and with a mighty swing of my paw, I felt the satisfaction of my claws hook a fish. I scooped up the fish and pulled it out of the water. As I looked at it however, it didn't seem right. This fish was blue, and thin, not silver and plump.

"What the-?"

Suddenly, large tentacles burst out of the water and onto the shore. The tentacles wrapped around my legs and body, making it impossible to move. I struggled, whining with fear.

"What the heck?!"

A large squid body emerged from the water. It was smirking, clearly satisfied with its catch. My whines turned to growls.

"Nice to see you pal." The squid said sarcastically, smiling. He then climbed back into the water, bringing me with him.

(Ty's POV)

I was pacing around my cell, bored out of my mind.

"Hey! Prison Dude! You gut anything for me to do in this joint?" I yelled out. The guard turned his head away from the game of cards he was playing with a fellow gaurd, and growled.

"Be quiet. Your no use at the moment."

I was confused. At the moment? Whatever.

At that same moment, two other guards decked out in full armor walked into the hallway. I expected them to come straight to my cell door, but instead, they turned to the cell right across from mine and opened it. I heard something hit the floor.

"You idiots! Once I'm done with you your gonna wish you hadn't don't this to me!" The stranger called out. But, the stranger sounded familiar. The guards turned their attention away from the complaining prisoner and to me.

"See you in a bit, puny." The squid smirked. I growled. They laughed, and walked off. The other two guards sitting around followed.

"Stupid squids, once I get my hands on them, I'm going to strangle each one..."

I listened to the stranger ramble on, trying to figure out who it was. I leaned closer to the cell door, making it rattle on accident. Great job Ty.

"What the? Who's there?!" The stranger called out. I pressed my face against the door, and through the dim light, I was able to make out a furry face. I gasped.

"Jerome! It's me!" I said excitedly. Jerome walked closer to the door.

"Ty?!" He gasped. "Your alive!"

"Just barely." I said, not as enthusiastic.

"Oh my god! Ty, you look awful! What have they been doing to you?! And what is with your eyes?!"

"That will all be answered soon, I promise."

We both turned our heads and saw Squillium slithering down the hall. I growled. He was accompanied by two guards.

"Now, let see here, who shall go first?" He said, tapping his chin. "How about....you." He said, pointing his tentacle at me. The two guards opened my door, and walked in. I backed up, hissing. The first one lurched out at me, trying to grab my arm. I jumped out of the way, and punched him in the jaw. He fell back, but managed to wrap his tentacle around my legs, pulling them out from underneath me. I fell into the floor, and laid there, dazed. While the other squid had the chance, they grabbed me by the arms and pulled me to my feet. They half walked-half dragged me down the hallway to a larger room with two chairs in it, one of them with arm straps. They strapped me into the chair. I struggled, but it was no use.

"Ok! Time to get this show on the road!" I heard Squillium say, as he stepped into the room. I glared at him as he sat down in his seat. He crossed his tentacles, and looked me in the eyes.

"So?" He said simply. My looks of hatred changed to confusion.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Have you met Jerome yet?"
