I was helped up along with all the others by a strange person, will yellow skin and an oval shaped head, looking like a lemon.
"Wow. The LemonGarb Castle.." Joe said. " Where's all the garb?"
"It's LemonGrab Castle!" A guard yelled.
"Aw," Joe said. "Well, can I grab a lemon?"
We walked in the castle and sitting on a throne, was the king himself.
"Why hello adventurers!" The king yelled.
"This is my lovely wife, Queen LemonGrab." The King introduced.
"Why hello cuties." Queen Lemongrab said.
"I love cuties! Oranges are good." Joe said.
I elbowed him in his stomach.
"Owie," Joe said.
"Well, let's get you to your rooms." The king said.
"We have rooms?" Elesa exclaimed.
"ROYAL SERVANTS!" The king yelled and servants came over. "Escort these fellows to their rooms."
They lead us upstairs and showed our rooms. We loved them and got settled in. A guard said a giant feast is coming soon.
"This is great guys. Someone friendly for once," I said.
"This is the great life," Dr. Roberto said.
After a while, the servant came upstairs and said the food is ready. So, we headed downstairs for the giant feast.
"Welcome to the feast, adventurers!" King LemonGrab greeted.
"Hello," I said.
We sat down and got us some delicious food and went to sleep happy and full.
I couldn't sleep that night. Everything that happened lately had been so intense. We had been sucked away from our jungle. We lost Lauryn. It was too much. In my thought, I heard walking and the door opened. I pretended to be asleep. It was the Lemongrab king and some of his servants. They walked over to the center of the room and one of the servants got a grenade-looking thing out. He pressed a small button and set it down and then they ran out and shut the door.
I jerked up and ran to the bomb. There was a liquid in it, as I heard it moving within it. It was counting down. I had to do something, but there were no windows in our room. So I hid it under my bed. I heard it doing 3 long last clicks... BOOM some gas came out of all sides of my bed and spread through the room. It was too late for me. I ran through the smoke getting drowsier and drowsier. I woke up Dr. Roberto, who was closest to the door.
"What is that purple gas!" Dr. Roberto yelled.
"GO! ESCAPE GET HELP NOW!" I yelled about to crash. The gas was effective and quick working.
"Uh... Okay, okay," he said and opened the door but before I passed out I saw the servants piling on him and capturing him.
It was too late.
I woke up in a yellow room. It seemed like those mental hospital rooms with all the fluffy walls, except there was a glass window on one wall, where someone was standing. I realized it was the Lemongrab king. I noticed all the others. They were awake. I must've been passed out the longest because I was the first one to hit the gas and directly touch it.
"Guys.." I moaned.
"Epic!" Dr. Roberto exclaimed.
"You're up," Rie said.
