Where It All Began

Chapter 3

Fireswirls's P.O.V

I was being tired up by the Erebuses and taken to a large room that contained a big throne 'that must be King Venom's throne.' I wondered, we all looked at the empty throne and waited for something to happen. Nothing. Only silence. A few minutes passed and a door swung open and we saw a snake, with blackish-gray scales and dusty purple on his belly, he wore a blue cape with golden rings on his wrist. He wore a golden crown with blue jewelry on it. The snake slithered across the room to the empty throne, my eyes widen as the snake sat down on the throne and wrapped his long body until he looked comfortable. 'So..he's-'  "King Venom...yeah..that's him. Quite surprising, then again... Not so much." I looked beside me and saw the person who spoke and possibly read my mind 'Lanato.'

Narrator's P.OV.

 The king glared at them and chuckled evilly and spoke in a dark and hissing voice saying "So.....what do we have here?" and he smirked, "I know......the children of prophecy or should I say my new trophies." Edward asked him "What should we do with them, my king?" King Venom replied, "Ooh I suppose a hanging could work but, make it public I wanna show all these pitiful citizens of the kingdom their only hope will be hung by their necks." Edward replied "Yes my king, it shall be done" so he and the Erebuses grabbed a hold of them and dragged them but as they struggled Nightstalker knocked each and everyone out, making it easier to get to their destination.

A few hours later~

Everyone was locked in a cage and the citizens of the kingdom arrived to witness them all as the citizens were frightened. Nightstalker made his appearance on the stage where the guards have tied the frightened heroes on the post, Nightstalker watched and looked at the citizens. "Citizens of the kingdom, I bring upon you the children of the prophecy but you can say your only hope. The king himself requested you all to come, but if you choose to leave then you will be killed on sight... also the king has requested us to hang the children and their masters until death and you shall watch your last hope be extinguished forever." He chuckled and ordered the guards to grab one by one to come to their designated nooses but as they were getting prepared for their hanging, a strange figure was in the crowd wearing a black cloak slowly pushing people out the way making his way to the front.

Fireswirls's P.O.V

The guards had ordered us to make a line for who goes first to who goes last. I was the first one in line and had my neck tied up nice and tight to the noose. I turned my head to the friends I had made and became family to me. "...Well... I guess this is it. I was really hoping to find a cutie one day and get married, probably have kids, er-" "FIRESWIRLS!!" All of them spoke had spoken at the same time to me. "This is absolutely NO laughing matter, your about to get hunged up!" Lanato spoke. I stick my tongue out at him and he growls and mutters something under his breath. "Sorry, It just popped up." I laugh nervously and watched the crowd. 'What an embarrassing way to die.'

As a soldier was about to pull the lever an arrow was shot and stabbed deep inside the chest of the solider. I looked around to see who had made the amazing action and saw a figure with a black cloak lowering down its crossbow, it grabs a small knife and throws it straight towards me. I shut my eyes tight and wait...one...two..three minutes passed and opened my eyes to see what had happened, my neck suddenly loosened and the noose had been cut and the figure shoots more arrows at the guards standing beside my friends. Nightstalker and Edward both look at each other with eyes widen and call out for backup soldiers. A large wooden door behind the execution slammed open and twenty guards came out with swords, one of the twenty soldiers was riding a beautiful white horse, with brown spots on its left eye and some on it's back, with silver armor on it. The figure in black cloak shot the solider and it felt like slow timing because the figure had grabbed a dark oak wood carriage and had tied it on the magnificent horse and had jumped on it's back and pulled it back to stop the horse. "Get in the carriage." Said a voice inside the cloak. We didn't need to think twice, and before you know it. We went and disappeared into the shadows of the never-ending forest.
