"how kind of you to join us, moon princess" the fat man starts causing the rest of the gang of De'noirs to chuckle condescendingly,  "to what do we owe the pleasure?" he asks with a smirk,

"if these two pigs let my arms go, I'll gladly tell you" I propose with narrow eyes as I try to pull my wrists out of their tight grips. With a nod from the fat men they let my arms go and stand back so I have chance to get to my feet,

"now, care to enlighten us?" the short man asks, now I'm standing I can tell just how short he really is he kind of looks like he's been compressed or something,

"I wont to know where the peal casket is, I know you have it" I demand while crossing my arms, the gang laugh once again but this time it's slightly more bitter, "I brought this-" I add, the laughter dies down and they watch as I pull the key out my back pocket, "-it should open the casket" I add, they chuckle one more,

"oh, would you look at this, the girl brought us they key-"  the fat man smirks, taking the key from my hand, "-because the terrible De'noirs has had the moon peals hidden up here all along, haven't they?" he spits,

"well, if you don't have them who does?" I ask with narrow eyes,

"the thieving Merryweather's took them before we took the box" he spits,

"how could that even be possible? no one could do something like that so quickly" I glare, that's my family he's talking about,

"follow me" he growls. He turns and walks to wards a shrine with an armoured solder laying on it, Robin grabs my arm and pulls me in the direction of the shrine. The fat man, walks up the steps to the suit of arms and picks up a box that was tucked neatly by its side.

"I knew it" I smile, thank god that's over. The fat man glares at me before dropping the key to the floor and saying a fake 'oops', I watch him curiously as I feel Robins eyes burning into the side of my head. He opens the box to reveal that it's empty. "you've hidden them!" I determined feeling pissed that I spent all night searching for nothing,

"they were never there, girl" he seethes through his yellowing teeth,  

"you have to know where they are! you have to!" I shout letting my bad mood get the best of me,

"the Merryweather's have them idiot" he growls, I glare at him,

"I'm the idiot?" I ask,

"well, you are the one who willingly came to the enemies castle" he spit as his followers laugh,

"yeah, willingly" I whisper to myself, I don't think anyone hear it though they're all to busy laughing, "and you're the one who let the enemy into your castle!" I accuse back letting the laughter die down,

"take her to the dungeons" he hisses.

Robin drags me roughly down corridor after corridor, while his goons follow close behind. He shoves me along laughing with his friends,

"stop pushing me boy-" I spit as I whip around to face him "-or I'll rip your large intestines out and use it as a skipping rope!" I threaten, his eyes grow slightly but apart form that he seems pretty collect,

"for someone in your type of predicament I have to admire your sprit" he smirks as his friends laugh. Not really thinking of the consequences, I kick him as hard as I can on the shin making him bend down and clutch him leg while groaning in pain.

"witch!" he snaps and he grabs me and pushes me down the hall way more violently then last time, his friend encourage him all the way.

He shoves me through a big gate with a heart cut out of the metal, I almost lose my footing but manage to stay on my feet. He smirks as he slams it closed, I try and pull the door open but to no use.

"Robin!" I say as he turns to leave,

"yes, princess?" he asks faking sincerity,

"I let you leave when you broke into my room" I try, even though I'm not 100% sure it was him it seems pretty likely,

"so what? I don't owe you anything" he crosses his arms,

"you may not owe me anything but what about Loveday?" I ask, his eyes grow slightly at the mention of the name and his friends stop laughing,

"how do you know about her?" he asks with a clenched jaw, "I swear to god, if you Merryweather's have done anything-"

"-we didn't" I cut off, "she's the one who took me here" I inform, he looks at me suspiciously,

"where is she?" he asks,

"I don't owe you anything" I smirk, he looks at his friends almost like he needs some sort of support then back to me,

"if I get you back to moonacre will you take me to her?" he asks, sounding almost defeated,

"yes" I agree, "as long as you promise no harm will come to her" I add hoping I didn't just sign Loveday's life away, 

"I would never hurt her" he growls seemingly annoyed at the fact I would even presume something like that,

"Robin, what are you doing?" one of his goons ask, surprised that he's agreeing to let me go, "she's a Merryweather, she cant be trusted" he adds, Robin glares at his before turning back to me,

"listen, girl-" he spits, "-if this is all one big lie, I wont hesitate to kill you" he growls,

"it's not, I promise" I state, looking him dead in the eyes, "but only you can come, your goons have to stay" I add,

"why?" he asks, suspiciously,

"because I don't trust you-" I say bewildered at the fact he thought I would let him bring him gang, "-for all I know, you'll try and kill her and then more on to kill  me" I finish,

"fine" he sighs, "I'll come and get you at night fall, it'll be easier then" he promises then turns an leaves with his gang.
