"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Bellowed the angry voice. It trembled both Sam and Tom's skeletons. "WHY ARE YOU IN MY HISTORY ROOM?" The voice continued. Sam turned around and saw that it was Sots. "WHY ARE YOU HERE?" Sots continued yelling aggressively. Tom finally turned around and Sots were shaking with anger. His electric-blue hair turned to blood red. He skin was turning as pale as a ghost even though he technically is a ghost. His amber eyes were beginning to get red slits. Sam looked over to Tom. Tom was giving him a sort of "We are screwed" kind of look. "Well um, we are both really interested in history and um... um we just wanted to know about the past of this kingdom" Sam explained before having a nervous gulp.
"You know what, I'm too tired, look around and explain to me in the morning" Sots said yawning. After that he slowly levitated away back to his bed. Tom was trying to hold in his anger "He's tired... HE'S TIRED!" Tom exclaimed. "We were the ones training for about an hour each and HE'S TIRED!" He continued. Sam tried to shush him but it was no use. Sharlon heard the commotion and flew in to see what the fuss was about. Sharlon was also tired and was mad at Tom. He gave Tom a "Shush" squawk to get him to shut up, he then perched on Sam's shoulders on put his head on top of Sam big, bushy, brown hair.
After 45 minutes they finally headed back to their beds. Tom was a sleepy Bear and dozed off immediately. Sam couldn't sleep. He noticed that the bottom part of the scroll was torn off. "Is the master Sots? No it couldn't be, someone he used to be friends with?" He thought to himself. He was tossing and turning. He thought his bed was a rock with how uncomfortable it was. Tom was a log. Sam couldn't understand how Tom could sleep on these beds. He was annoyed because Sots has the comfiest bed and yet he doesn't even use. "HE LEVITATES OVER IT, EVEN THE BED SHEETS JUST PHASE THROUGH HIM" Sam thought to himself yet again. He somehow managed to get to sleep about three hours after the History room incident.
Tom woke up first, then Sam, then Sharlon and finally Sots. "Ahh, that was a good sleep" Sots announced. Sam gave him a death stare that Sots didn't notice. Sam had bags under his eyes. They were so big they might as well just of been regular bags for storing things. He got to sleep about 4 AM and woke up at 7:30 AM and he was mad about. Tom somehow also got a good sleep which made Sam even more mad. Even Sharlon slept well. Sharlon slept on the floor. Sam slowly and depressingly got up from his "bed". "Oh god, Sam are you okay, you look like you slept in a prickly bush?" Tom asked ignorantly. Sam replied tired and depressed with "Shut up, just shut up". Sam was feeling homesick but he couldn't turn back now other Hagr would get free.
"So what were you two doing in the history room last night?" Sots asked. Tom's heart sank into his stomach. He turned that into an excuse for "Heart burn" leaving Sam behind. Sam wanted to stab him with his new sword. "So Sam, what were you two doing?" Sots asked again. "Um, well we really like the history of Aconia and we um... saw the history room under the viewing of the platform and we decided to um, took the oppotunity to take a little sneak peek" Sam replied shaking his long legs off. "Well you were honest but I gave you part of my power, was Tom part of it too?" Sots questioned. Sam nodded his head. Sots went away for a few minutes the he heard Tom yelling from down the hall way. All of a sudden he saw an arrow heading towards the fence on the viewing platform.
It had hit the part that Sharlon had been perching on , then Sharlon let out the loudest squawk that Sam had ever heard. Then Sharlon swooped down and flew through the night-black hallway. Sam didn't know what Sharlon was doing until he heard Tom yell "OW!". "Sam what was that for?" Tom yelled. "What do you mean?" Sam replied. "I shot an arrow then all of the sudden Sharlon comes flying at me and knocked me over" Tom explained. "You nearly shot him" Sam responded slightly annoyed. "Oh... blame Sots, he gave me a homing bow" Tom explained. "I gave him a Homing bow for being honest as well" Sots explained before Sam could even make a sound.
After 20 minutes, Sam Tom and Sharlon were back on their way to the Blood cavern. "So how accurate is that bow?" Sam asked. "Pretty accurate" Tom replied while preparing to shoot one as and fire. He shot the arrow into the water by the wall. "See?" Tom said smugly. Just then all 3 of them heard a loud splash coming from the direction they were headed. They all turned their heads when the sound was made and the saw a 20 foot or so tentacle raging out of the water. They noticed that in one of the suckers was Tom's arrow. "We need to head that way but if you just shot in a different direction then we wouldn't have to deal with it" Sam explained with annoyance in his voice. They all hopped in a boat by the bank of the pond and gently to the spot where the tentacle came out. "Right you shoot for the left tentacle and I'll cut down the left tentacle till I can reach the main body" Sam instructed quietly.
Just then Sam dived down into the dyed- like water while Tom shot arrow after arrow. Sam swam his way to the tentacle and stuck his sword in it. He slowly swam his way down till he saw the eye, at the same time Tom was using his Homing bow to shoot each of the suckers. Sam noticed this wasn't a regular Octopus, it was a Sapphire-eyed octopus. Sapphire-eyed Octopus are distinguishable because they only have two tentacles and a Sapphire eye right in the middle of the body. Sam got to the eye and plunged his Sword into the centre and Octopus squealed in pain. Sam was swimming as fast as he can to get to the surface.
"GO, JUST GO!" Sam demanded. Tom moved the oars as fast as Humanly possible to get on the other side of the wall. When they got to the bank and they climbed out they heard ear penetrating screams.
