I'm very happy with this chapter! I hope you enjoy, who's the better magic police? Lalna or Sjin?
-B

*Sjin's pov*
"hey Lal', good job"
I'm poking Lalna hoping to wake him up... but I know this could be awhile before he wakes up, he's still not a high-enough tier wizard yet to use that spell, they say you need to be in the 3rd tier to be able to use this spell, but Lalna is only in the tier 2, how ever he is still strong, so he can use it, but he'll pass-out for a couple of days...
but look on the bright side we have capture one them! now I've got to see them, but I don't dare until Lalna has recovered

*Nilesy pov*
I wake up finding my self in some sort of cell... I get up, move to the bars to see if there was anything that might give me a clue of where I was... there was no clue, apart from a strange shape carved into the wall... it's a coloured orb... inside it, a square, I remember Hannah used to etch these everywhere, but would change the colours every now and then, this one was blue, Hannah told me about what some of the colours meant but I'm not the best at remembering, I think pink is a place of love, green is a place of nature, red is a place no one dare goes, cyan is where water rules land, purple is safe, I just can't remember what blue is... what is it?
....black is place of dark magic...
...white is a place among the dead...
I go through the list... hannah had told me... why can I not remember? it's like the memory had been locked-up, captured thrown away the key
capture!
that's it! blue is capture...
a place that should be among hell... Hannah... oh god... Hannah, did they get her too? they can't she's too strong my best friend can fight... she has the familiars with her too...
I start frantically looking around for any sign that she was here
"HANNAH"
I hear someone moving...
"hello?" I yell trying to hide the fear in my voice, I try saying it again "hello, who's there? I'm Nilesy.."
"Nilesy! it's me Duncan!"
"STAY AWAY!" I panic almost flinging myself to other side of the cage it was Duncan... Duncan nearly killed me, Duncan killed my cats, Duncan, destroyed everything
"Nilesy? what's going on? are you okay?"
"w..h..at?" there's no point trying to hide how scared I am, the guy that nearly killed me and probably placed me here, is going to finish the job no doubt
"Nilesy! what's wrong? what ever it is stay strong, do it for me, do it for Hannah, even Ravs!"
why is Duncan, try to calm me down?
"you leave Hannah out of this TRAITOR!"
"tt..raiter? look Nilesy I don't know why you heard but Hannah nearly got captured by Lalna and Sjin, this girl Kim, oh god I hope she's okay, Lewis is with them both... but he's injured and I don't know if he'll be strong enough to protect them"
I fall to the floor... is this true? I suppose Sjin did call Duncan Lalna instead of Duncan... it may be true...
"prove it"
"what?"
"prove what you said is true"
"how?"
"I don't care, just prove it"
"okay... well look to you left... in the centre of the room, I think you should be able to see me, though its a bit of a stretch"
I stand up, some part of me wants it to be true but the other hopes it's not, if it's not true that means that Hannah is okay, so is Lewis, I still worry for Kim even though I've never met her and Duncan well he'll still be in his tower, but... if it's true...
*sigh*
at least I have a cellmate
I look hoping to find 'Lalna'
but no. the far left of my cell on a big podium a cell half the size of mine, inside that cell was a rather beaten- barely-alive... Duncan. The real Duncan.
"D..Du..ncan!! Duncan! yo-your actually here?!" I search the cell corridor by looking trough the bars, there must be away out... I've got help my friend...
"yeah, I'm here who did you think I was?"
I'm still searching as I talk too Duncan
"I though you were Lalna"
I see a switch on the wall
"hey there's a switch on the wall near me, it's got a row of four lights... the fist, third and fourth one is green the second is red, any ideas?"
"hey Nilesy, jut out of interest, how are you sure that I wasn't Lalna? also try pressing the red one"
"um, we'll, your different, Lalna never goes anywhere without Sjin... He doesn't have a lab coat, he uses his mage robes instead, also your helping me"
Duncan goes quiet, he must just be thinking, or the teleport spell, must have recently been used to get him here, if thats so he's just passed out
I get back to work, I can't quite reach the switch that what I can only assume opens the cell I'm in... I reach as far as I can, but I'm still a good 10 centimetres away...
what do I do?
my wand! I can barely do magic... but I still have a wand for emergencies, Hannah insisted I had one, I'm glad she did or I would have never got one... I pull my wand out from my sleeve, I sewed in a extra pocket in my wizard robe, mainly because I keep loosing things, so that kept my wand safe
I lift my wand up, I reach to the switch, this time with my wand, I know I'm supposed to be casting spells with it, but my wand is 13 centimetres exactly, I can now reach the switch easily... I pressed the button with the tip of my wand

ahh, the door is opening now, opening slowly, but still opening, I pull out my rod-of-invisibility, I tried using my rod-of-return earlier but it seems that the cells are magic protected, so it would pointless trying to use another spell, I look around the room, hoping to find a way up to Duncan...
I pull out my broom, I'm not to bad at flying this thing, but Hannah and the owls are better
I gradually get to Duncan's cell, yep, he's out cold, I start trying to breaking the wall, but it's no use I can't get to him
"hey Nilesy... go get help, you can't get me out at the moment, but Kim has my portal gun, get her to come here, there all at owl island, but they won't be there for long, also... um please give this to Kim when you find her" he mumbled barley conscious, handing me a small box covered in nyan-cat missile wrapping paper
"ok, I will Dunc', don't do too much, but your welcome to give both of them a smack on the nose" he smiles as he sit's up and hugs me through the bars "thank you" I pull back from the bars  "go, go now! they're coming" he stands up holding onto the bars for support
I turn on my rod-of-invisibility, hopped on my broom and flew to the door, ready for when it opens
