“You mentioned the man Maxwell but what about this Maydire friend you have? Is she pretty?” Tod spoke quietly.
“She’s gorgeous. She has been my best friend since we were very young. We may be different species but we communicate just fine.” I explained with a slight pang in my heart at the thought of her. I need to get out of here. “Are you sure there’s not a different way out of here?” I whispered.
The rhythmic sound of dirt crunching indicated that someone was coming. “Get ready,” he muttered to me.
“As soon as the door is open we charge.” I uttered so quietly my words were almost inaudible.
A hood hid the face of the person who reached the door but it seemed like they had come alone. “Oh good you’re alive.” Maxwells voice drifted through the bars.
“Sure am. This is my friend Tod. How did you get past the guards? Is Maydire okay?”
He frowned slightly when he first saw Tod but then continued speaking. “I knocked them out as I saw them so we don’t have much time. We must go quickly if we don’t want to deal with more of them.” He added while unlocking the door.
I wrapped my arms around him long enough to utter. “Is Maydire okay?”
“I hope so. We were met with some strange creatures on the way in which attracted the guards. She distracted them and got captured while I came to get you.” He explained while patting my back. “I know where they will take her though.”
“Lets go.” I replied quickly walking past him.
