He runs up to me.
"What is going on?" he asks me.
I stare at the guards who keep trying to rush me along and he follows my eyes.
"Hey," he shouts at them.
They stop.
"Can you give me minute a minute to talk to her," he says and the guards study him for a minute and nod.
They let go of my arms and pull my hands behind my backhand I feel cold handcuffs flicked onto my wrists. Then they take a few steps back from me and Locke.
"You have two minutes," a guard says.
Locke puts his hands on my arms.
"Are you ok?" He asks.
"I am fine, but Asher he just gave up and he didn't believe me," I say.
"Believe you about what?" He asks.
"They think I helped orchestrate the attack on the warlock building and they think I tipped off the humans about this place," I say in shock now that I have finally realized that this is actually happening.
"What? That is crazy, how could they think that?" He says looking at me with concern.
"I know and I swear I didn't do anything like that, I mean I would never," I say.
"I know," he says "I believe you."
"But Asher doesn't" I say now terrified.
He pulls me into a hug.
"He is probably confused and a little shocked, but I will talk to him and we are going to get you out of this," he says "Ok."
"Ok," I respond.
Then I hear a guard tell us "Time's up" and then I am pulled away from Locke and he watches me as they pull me away and down a tunnel.
I am shoved into the ground and I hear a door lock behind me. I look up and I realize I am sitting in a cell. The floor is dirt and there are no windows.
