Eyes Of War

Chapter 4: Zach

"Yoohoo, oooh guard," Lilu cooed, talking to the guard that was guarding the F section of the dungeon.

"W-What?" she answered, turning around to look at Lilu.

"I was just wondering," Lilu said, clutching at the woman's shirt and bringing her closer to her face, "If you could look into my eyes." Lilu's eyes turned a bright pink and 2 big hearts appeared in the center of her pupils. "You're in love with me now, okay?" She said, smirking. 

"Okay Lilulianna, how can I serve you?" the woman said with a blank expression.

"Unlock my cage, please," Lilu said. 

And the guard did as she was told, she unlocked the cage and Lilu proceeded to take her keys and release me as well.

"Now, tell us where we can escape from this dungeon," Lilu commanded. 

"You can escape the dungeon through the catacombs, it is a long tunnel but it is possible to leave on the otherside, outside of the dungeons," she answered. 

"Show me it."

"Of course, Lilulianna," she said, beginning to walk.

After about 20 minutes of walking through the the halls of the dungeons and walking by countless prisoners cooing for us to unlock their cages, we made it to the entrance of the catacombs.

Lilulianna kissed the woman and suddenly she was out of the trance.

"Run," she said as the lady began regaining what was going on. We both jumped into the hole and off we went, I was finally free from the prison.

"You killed that girl, admit it Zachary!" Zachary's mother yelled.

"I didn't fucking kill her, I wasn't even there," Zach said, frustrated.

"Yes you fucking did you lying piece of shit, all the evidence is stacked against you," she said. 

"You won't believe your own son's word? I'm telling you mother, I didn't fuck kill her. I was never there, I'm being framed. You've got to believe me," he said, his voice shaking and angry.

"Zach, there is video evidence of you doing it, stop lying," she continued to argue.

"THAT'S NOT ME, I'M BEING FRAMED."

"I never thought I had such a lying piece of shit for a son," she said shaking her head as she put on her coat, "Come on, let's go, the court case is about to start."

And as I was dragged down to court, I regretted ever even being there. I know in my mind I did not do it. I was at the wrong place at the wrong time. I would kill to be anyone but myself right now. Oh how did I get myself into this mess?

"I can hear Jaynee's soft voice, we're almost there," Lilu said, looking at me. We were in pure darkness and all I could see was the white in her eyes. I felt the roof of where we were and felt for wood.

Stone. Dirt. Stone. Stone. Wood! I started push against the wood, trying to make the trap door budge, but I soon realized it was jammed.

"Stand back," I said to Lilu.

"Why?"

"You're about to see what I can do," I replied, smirking. I heard her back up and then proceeded to put my hands together. I closed my eyes and concentrated. I opened my eyes and pointed my hands at the wood. A sea of flames summoned out of my hands and blew the trap door right off its hinges, smoking.
