Chapter Three: The Kidnapping


As the group listened to Sam, their leader, Elana on the other hand was just standing in the corner, observing everyone with a questioning gaze in her eyes. "Why-" She started to say when she was intercepted by the door of their group's door slamming onto the door. Everyone stops what they are doing and screams when there's a gun, one that no human understands, and unloads their rounds on the people inside.

Sam, Elana, and one other person hid under some supply crates. Looking through the crack of the supply crates, they watch as all the others are slaughtered brutally and their blood covers everything within eyesight.

When the Crorqreiks notice that everyone within their vision is dead. They make sure that the bodies are no longer moving. They head towards the supply crates, wanting to know how long they have been preparing, living in these conditions.

When looking, one of the Crorqreiks finds Elana first and drags her by her hair out to the other three Crorqreiks. Then he sees the other humans trying to sneak into the shadows without being seen when he unexpectedly captures the other two humans by their wrists almost breaking them. He then tells the other soldiers in their native language that we are taking them as prisoners to the King.

All three Crorqreiks move forward towards the humans. They take the humans to the palace, dragging them across the city, as the Crorqrieks stare hungrily, watching as they drag their slaves down the rough gravel road, as they are being dragged through the palace they stop in the throne room.

They're met with a 9 foot tall Crorqriek with this very ornate crown on his head. King Zion sits on his throne with no shirt to cover the scars that line his chest. The gold of his cape to show off his wealth is laid on the throne behind him. His face, once stone cold, now shows amusement as he watches his soldiers drag three skinny humans. He stands up, and the soldiers force the three humans to their knees as a sign of respect.

Zion says in English, "Hello humans,"  he slurs his words in a deep tone, almost not being able to understand what he's saying. His deep voice sends shivers down the prisoner's spine. He chuckles a bit saying, "What brings you to my palace?" Zion gives a quick look to his guards smiling that they brought him more fresh meat.

Elana says, "King, I beg you, let us be free. We will leave the palace and go into the forest to find a place that is far away from you, so we are out of your hair." Zion scoffs and rolls his eyes, "You foolish human you think you can leave, you are now tools and slaves to us to use as we please." He says waving them away, signaling his guards to take them to the labs.
