Aphmau's Secret

Chapter 18 - EDITED

I swam up to shore, excited to tell Barney the news I found. I rushed back to camp and there, all I saw, was destruction. 

Tents were torn to shreds, dead bodies littered everywhere, and Barney's hat - right at the centre of camp. I screamed, enraged.

Who would do this?

Why would they do this?

No matter the answer, I just knew it, I will kill them, no matter child or adult.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up in a dark cell. I began to prop myself up with a groan, just then, I heard it : the light clanking of chains told me that someone was coming near. I patted myself to find my weapons but found it useless, whoever my captor was, they were smart.

"Give up hun, it's useless."

I turned around to find a witch, fair haired and young with a wicked smirk on her face, "Yous will regrets taking mes! Jets wills not lets you offs!"

"Oh really?" she giggled slightly, slowly approaching me as she does so, "Just who is that person who is able to defeat me, Hyria the Wicked?" 

A feeling of dread washed over me, for some reason, I knew she was dangerous and of course, ot a force to be reckoned with. I rushed forward, activating my powers to buy Jess some time - whatever time, at least enough to get the message and leave the island.

But Jess will never leave.

Jess will never leave us.

With that thought in mind, I gave it my all in my attack as I saw the witch readying her magic. All I remember next is a shrill scream and a dark void.

However, little did I know, a little mouse saw everything unfold and snuck away.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I heard a scream and if I'm not mistaken, it came from the mountains. Likely hideout for an average villain. 

"Master" a whisper came. I looked down to find a little mouse, "What is it?" was all I replied as I continued staring down the mountain.

"Sir Barney is kidnapped by a witch that calls herself, Hyria the Wicked. They're at the mountains."

"Figures." was all I said before I took off into that direction to get my friend back.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now, what do you do after seeing a long lost friend again? Fling yourself at them of course! No? That's what I did.

"ROSS!!" I screamed out as I flung my body across the room to give him an armless hug, but landed on the floor instead, "it's been so long Ross! How's it going?"

"Terrible," Ross replied with the most serious face he can put on with those derpy eyes, "Sky, I need your help." he announced as he swiveled around his chair like a madman before stopping right in front of me,

"ThunderMuffin is missing."
