Chapter 419 - Escape Room

"Moe, I think it will take a lot more than just a friendly scratch behind the ear to entice these Creatures to come with us."

*Shing….Shing.*

"I hate to say it, but you might be right."

"Just wait till the others break off.

And one........two......…Now!!!"

*Shing*

*Shing*

"Mmmmeerruuaaaaayyy"

*Boom..….Boom*

"WATCH THE TOES"

"WHAT?"

*Boom.....Boom.....Boom.....Boom*

"I said, 'WATCH THE TOES!!!'

Don't need anyone getting hurt on my watch."

"GOT IT.

........WE NEED TO FIGURE OUT WHERE TO HERD HER?"

"WHAT?"

"I said WE NEED TO FIND AN ESCAPE IN THE PATH, TO LURE IT SOMEWHERE."

"How about the Plant?"

*Ting*

"Burned down.

Think faster."

"*Ting...Ting…..

*Shing*

"Roaaaawwwwwwwwww!!!!"

"I thought I told you not to hurt her?"

"Wasn't my fault.

Rainbow, we have to think of something because we can't keep circling for hours."

"Then follow me."

"Where are we going? To yours and Rubys secret hideout?"

"No."

".....Oh.

Then where?"

"...Someplace better….

And a lot bigger."

"What's bigger than a Secret?"

".......A Rumor!!!"

"I thought that Place didn't exist."

"Well if you'd come out of your defenses and look around every so often, you'd find that it is indeed fully...…..alive...… and well."

"Well?"

".....Better than it was."

"What do you mean, 'Better than it was?'

It looks fine to me.

Was it not working right before? If that's the case then I don't know if..."

"Darius, you'll be fine.

Are we all ready for our test run?"

"This way, Heartchilds.

You know, when I first heard that you guys were in Cahoots with a strange looking fourteen year old."

"Hey. She has a name, and it's Ruby."

"I thought; no way. Not those guys. That family minds its own business. Keeps to themselves. Helps out whenever they want, but all around....Never heard a complaint from you."

"Well, Ruby has definitely pulled us all out of our shell and into her fast-paced, action-packed Mystical world that is happening all around us as we speak.

Thing is, we had no idea."

"She sounds nice, but for every action their is a reaction; and in this case, you can't just leave your mess for someone else to clean up.

By the way, where is this girl?"

"She...…..Ummmmmm."

"Don't worry. I won't tell everyone, so that they hunt her down."

"That's totally fine if they go hunting."

"It is? Why?"

"Cause I don't even think I could tell them where to look."

"Oh. Off on another one of her many wild, Magical, Adventures I take it."

"Why, you wanted to shake her hand or something?"

"Wouldn't mind if she helped clean up."

"But this isn't her home. Her home is......…..Somewhere else."

"Whether your home or a guest at another, still doesn't make it right."

"I.....I agree one hundred percent."

"Ready to stretch those vocals, Mrs. Heartchild?

Your Husband has told me that you have a lovely voice."

"He better. He's my Husband."

"No. He said if he could listen to Angels singing; then you would definitely be in the first row Choir."

"He said that, didn't he?"

"....Every word."

"Well, I...ahhh...….Singing in front of a crowd is way different then singing to Peers.

How big is this crowd going to be anyways."

"Nothing big.

Not like we need it to draw every single Visitor and a few residents back or anything. It's just a little something we whipped up last minute, really."

"Wooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"That........That's a lot of seats."

"It's like an endless ocean."

"And you want me to sing for all of them?"

"Yep."

"And they'll hear me ok?"

"Every.....single...….one of them."

".......I think I need to sit down."
