After a while of me in the back of the wagon screaming for help I decided it was no use. Giving up I sit in the corner hugging pulling my Knees to my chest, feeling helpless all of a sudden. Why me? I mean my life is was kinda, sorta getting better. I have a job, I have an a apartment, and I even have a friend. But I just had to be in the forest! Wait, we stopped moving. Jumping too my feet again I see we stopped in a small village on the edge of forest. The little cottages looked right out of story book. Cute but small. All around I see people walking about the shops as there kids play together in the field to the side."Duttle what do you mean you can't find the keys?!"
Turning around I find Duttle and Zig arguing at the door. "Well it ain't my fault I lost em' "
"Yes it absolutely your fault!"
"Ok well maybe it is but I remember putting them exactly in my po-" reaching in his pocket he pulls out the keys. Wow. This guy is really stupid.
"You excuse of a royal guard!" Zig bellowed snatching the keys and turning to unlock my door. Once the door was open I got ready to jump out.
"Little lady if you even try jumping out I will have to kill you." He said with a glare almost like he didn't want to kill me. Backing down I let him handcuff me and lead me out of the smelly wagon. Why is everyone staring at me? No not me, my clothes. Realizing I must look like an alien with jeans, converse, and a hoodie on. Well they all have dresses or tunics and pants on.
Shoving me forward we walk into town, everyone staring at us as we pass them. Even the kids stop playing to look. What a great way to boost me self esteem. Looking down an ally as we pass I see a figure with a cloak on watching us, assuming he's curious like everyone else I look ahead and keep walking. We stop on the edge of the village right in front of a cottage much bigger then the rest but instead of looking warm and cute this one was dark, beaten, and creepy. Zig, reaching into his sack pulls out a battered piece of parchment paper. Going up to the door he knocks a pattern. Wait? Is that... Yep it's the Frozen knock. Then hearing a satisfying click the door cracks open. Pulling on the chain connected to my handcuffs causing me stumble forwards.
Once at the door, I see a glitter light peaking through."Where are we going exactly?" I ask trying to sound more confident then terrified.
"It's honestly better not to know." Responds Duttle with a grim smirk.
"Why is that?"
"Cause you'll find it less Painful when they slit your throat."
"Oh would you knock it off, your gonna scare her," Zig bellowed in front.
"I was just joking stop being such a swamp dweller."
Seriously you were just joking about slitting my throat, absolutely hilarious! Meanwhile I just want to go home, curl up on the couch, eat food and watch NETFLIX!!!"
"Why don't you two figure this little argument out and i'll just be on my way," tip toeing away but was pulled back by Zig."Sorry little missy, you can't go anywhere."
"Yah were taking you to our ruler," Duttle intercepts.
