Orion looked around and was confused. He couldn't speak as he had a golden mask over his mouth. His ankles and wrists were chained to the floor. There was a squawk and Orion looked over seeking that bird from way back when. "MMM!!" He shouted. Someone came down the stairs and chuckled. "Oh my. Look at you. So beautiful. What a fine Prince you are." Orion walked up to the gate as close as he could and starred the large mech down. "You may not know me. I'm Overlord. No one knows of this place so I'm afraid you're stuck here." Orion had tears coming down his eyes. Overlord chuckled, "You can scream, cry anything and no one will hear you." Orion watched the mech pace the floor dragging a knife blade down his palm.

"If you would've listened to your Father and ignored the bird you wouldn't be here." Airachnid and Starscream walked in. "The spell worked. Great job Airachnid." Orion stepped back as the femme walked to the cell. "He's small and far to beautiful. What are you going to do with him?" Overlord tossed the knife at a target and it flew back to him. "I'm not sure yet." Orion sat down and cried hoping someone would come and safe him. There has to be hope. His father, Knights, maybe Megatron!?

~White Ruin Castle~

Megatron got off his horse and let her take a break. He slammed his fist into the gate. A knight came and answered. "What do you need." Megatron caught his breath and spoke, "I have news for the King. I need you to rally all your men!" The knight shut the eye slid and opened the gates. The two knights escorted him to the King. Onimus turned around and looked at the Forest man. "What does a poor Forest man know of my son?" Megatron reached his arms out and got onto his knees. "More than you think your highness." Onimus stood before Megatron, "Speak to me." Megatron stood up and walked closer to the King. "Orion ran into me back at the village. I kept him safe and if it weren't for me he wouldn't be alive. I was with some henchmen of a wizards. We need to get Orion out of here now!" Onimus chuckled and sat down.

"Sir, Megatron how do you suppose that my son would be stolen. No one has been to our gates but you." Megatron walked up and the knights flung their weapons out. "The femme is a witch she used a spell. I'm telling you. Check the cell there's no one in there. We need to go NOW!" Onimus sent guards down and followed them. Megatron followed and what he said was true. "Megatron where is my son?" The mech looked at the bookshelf and grabbed a book. A piece of paper fell out and he grabbed it. "I know where they are but I have to go someplace if we are to win against sorcerers." Onimus agreed to have Megatron retrieve the prince. He sent 10 men with the Forest man. They headed up to the Rocky Cliffs to the Sacred Volcano of Belladonna.

"Sir Megatron you sure you know what we're doing? This is home of the great Belladonna. The shadow dragon." Megatron stopped his horse and dismounted looking at the bridge. "Let's go. Trust me I'm a Forest man I can tame almost any beast." The knights slowly dismounted and followed Megatron across the bridge into the cave.

~Ballad Hut~

Orion woke up to the smell of something bad. "Mmm." he mumbled. Airachnid looked back and chuckled, "You'll like this stuff. Overlord uses it on all his friends." Orion looked around and saw the head laying on the shelves covered in spider webs. Orion hoped and prayed that someone would come to his rescue. In most fairytales the person would have been saved by their true love or knight in shining armor or a glorious prince. Wait, no, the glorious prince is the one who needs saving!! Orion tried to break the chains but they were too strong. He gave up as his muscles started to hurt.

~Sacred Volcano of Belladonna~

Megatron walked down with the knights to enter the chamber of the dragon. They walked up and looked at all the crystals sticking out of the rocks. Over in the chamber there seemed to have been a dragon. Megatron pulled out his sword and raised it high, "Belladonna!" The dragon opened her eyes and got up, walking over to the overhang. She rose up on her hind legs and looked at the men. "What is it you call for, Forest man." Belladonna's voice echoed. The knights were shaking and had their hands on their sword handles. Megatron put his sword away and walked up towards the dragon. "The prince of White Ruin has been taken by Overlord and his henchmen." Belladonna set her chest right on the overhang and lowered her head.
