Rapunzel*
Days went by.  Then those days turned into weeks. 
I was never taken out of the cell.  I was beat every week at least once a day and I was fed very small amounts of food.   I'd get maybe a granola bar and a shot glass of water for the whole day.
I see on my bed while playing with a strand of my hair when suddenly I heard foot steps.  I furrowed m brows at who it could be.  It sounded like someone was running. 
I began to sit up on my bed when I saw who it was. 
I froze and my eyes widened instantly. 
Little Nemo stood there. 
" Hi! " He exclaimed. 
I got on my feet in a rush and stumbled toward him. 
" Nemo??  What are you doing here?! " I whispered. 
" I'm breaking you out, " He said calmly while pulling a silver key out of his pocket and putting it in the slot.  I was already confused and a thousand questions bombarded my brain. 
How did he get here? 
How dis he get the key? 
Where were the guards? 
The cell door creeked open.  Nemo sprinted toward me and embraced me.  He caught me off balance and I almost fell,  but I recovered and embraced him in a tight hug. 
" I'm sorry I got you guys in trouble, " I said. 
" Rapunzel..  Are you kidding?!  You don't need to apologize,  but here there's no a lot of time! "
He then took off a small backpack I hadn't noticed. 
" Flynn is wIting for you outside the camp gates.  There's some supplies I packed for you.  "
I was in total shock.  I took the backpack from him. 
" Wait.. Flynn sent you? "
He nodded. 
Oh I'm killing him for endangering this child. 
"Don't worry I wanted to  " He reassured as if he could read my mind, " Now go! " He started to push me out of the cell. 
An idea hit me. 
" Wait! Nemo come with me, " I said suddenly. 
" I can't "
"Why? "
"My dad wouldn't want to leave. "
" I can't leave you here!  "
" Yes you can, " He said while pushing me again. 
" Nemo stop, "I turned to him and kneeled down beside him.  I held his small face in my hands.  His eyes we're glassy and I could tell he was scared. 
I left out a deep breath and embraced him once more. 
" I'm going to miss you little guy." I said and I mention it with everyone in my body.  I had no idea how I had gotten so attached to him. 
"I'll miss you too"
"I'm coming back for you.  I'm going to kill Hans and make sure you guys get out of this corrupt system you are in. I promise"  I let go of him. 
" I know " He said while smirking, " Come on let's go"
..... 
We ran together through the halls of Hans house.  No guards.  Great. 
" Did anyone see you come in here? " I asked while panting. 
" No.  Not that I know of" He said out of breath.
"Good."
I answered. 
We ran up to the front gates.  Two guards were there looking towards the town.
" Nemo say behind me... " I pulled off the backpack and opened the bag praying to find something useful.  The first thing I saw was a pocket knife.  Perfect.  I flipped it open. 
" Ok close your eyes Nemo.  " I whispered to him. 
He nodded and put his hand over his eyes. 
I crouched down and started to creep up on the men. 
When I was finally right behind one,  I prayed and pounced.  I grabbed the man and put my hand over his mouth while inserting the knife under his chin quickly.  Wow this knife was sharp!!!!! 
"Hey you st-" I swung my arm at the neck of the other guard.  I successfully injured him.  I had sliced his neck open.  He burgled and fell to the ground as he tried to speak.  He'd bleed out in 4 minutes max. 
I reached behind me and pulled Nemo towards me. 
"Nemo go home act like nothing happened.  I'll come back I promise! " I shouted.  He nodded and ran away  into one of the houses around us. 
I took off running as fast as I could towards the front doors of te camp.  It wasn't long when started to run into crowds of people.  I tried blending in as best as I could but my bruises gave it away.  Another guard saw me from a the top of a house.
" Hey you! " I started to run as fast as my legs could carry me. 
I began to shove people away.  Until I finally saw the exit. I ran full force and made it to the doors. Three guards were there.  I died a little inside. 
"Stop! " They shouted. 
I ran faster and pushed them away while pushing the door.  The doors opened.  I felt their fingers barely touch my skin as I ran through the guards. 
I barley made it through the door and it closed.  I heard the door open again.  I ran faster when I heard three gunshots. 
I froze and looked behind me.  Flynn stood there with his gunin his hand and his arm outstretched. 
"Come on Blondie let's go! " He shouted.  I obeyed and ran behind him as we began to run into town.
