(The chapters will be longer from now on)

' You decided to climb down as the sound of many people singing could be heard if you strained your ears. Suddenly, you slapped yourself. ARGH! Where were your teammates? Weren't you all supposed to steal the "Forbidden Treasure" from the Tower of Amethyst to prove that you all are "True Ninjas"! How long had it been since you last blacked out? Did your teammates leave you behind? Shaking those thoughts away, you grabbed the rungs of the ladder and began your descent. One rung. Two rungs. Three rungs. Honestly, you got sick of descending the laddder so slowly and cautiously. Hence, you did a double-backflip down the ladder, but you... Well, miscalculated the distance. "Holy sh-" Fingers barely brushing the ladder, you spiraled downwards into the darkness. Your mind could barely register anything that was happening right now as you were in for a dizzying fall. Thump. Finally, there was something solid under you! Grateful for this, you lay on the floor with your 4 limbs outstretched. Little did you know that the music had ceased and footsteps were approaching with a steady rhythm. You were too busy hugging the floor until you heard the footsteps when they were very near. "Hey, whatcha got there?" a gnome with a smoking pipe grunted, bending down to inspect you like some kind of insect. "Well well well, looks like the last intruder has decided to show himself/herself." a stout pixie proclaimed, arms akimbo. Wait what?! Your teammates were also captured! "Where are the others?" You asked groggily, sitting up. Snickering, an elf replied, "With us." "And where would that be?" You countered, squinting your eyes in suspicion. "You're going to find out soon!" a voice in the crowd chirped. (Timeskip because I'm too lazy and awful plus you're getting kidnapped.) "Oh boy, it's going to be a loooong day." ' -AnnoyingQuirkie


You hug yourself as you sit inside the murky darkness of the jail cell. Peering out through the bars, you can make out the shape of some other forms moving in front of you, then the sounds of roars and grunts and snaps. You shudder and remember what the gnome had said to you right before he and the others threw you into this horrible place: "Now don't try any funny stuff, or the dragon will get you."

You can't see the actual dragon from where you are trapped, but it's better to be safe than sorry. Besides, there's no way you could get out of this cell in the first place. There's nothing but dust and dirst and rock and sticks in here. You hug yoursel tighter as you feel darkness descending over you and over your heart. What are you supposed to do know?
