I gasped. Tall, bulky men were blocking the tavern doorway, with matching menacing looks. I stepped back, pulling Dan behind me, shielding him.
"Who are you guys?" I demanded.
One of them smirked. "Now, now. Don't get so riled up! All we want is to talk to that boy, the one hiding behind you."
I narrowed my eyes. Dan clutched my shirt in fear.
"Why." I asked— which came out more of a statement rather than a question.
"His cloak," the man pointed to Dan's cloak. "It's dark blue— for nobility ranking. Our boss needs any connection he can get to the royal family." The man grinned, his yellow teeth displayed. Ew.
"No—" I started to say.
"Yes." The other man said.
And before I could blink, the men were charging forward. In a flash, Dan was being dragged out the tavern by two men, being dragged by his arms. He was crying and struggling, but the men were strong.
As for me? I was also being dragged out, but more roughly. "Let go!" I screamed, but to no avail, I was taken.
