(Me and my friends made an AU where the Phoenix Alliance was actually a rebellion to take over Okhasis, and they captured Aphmau and Laurence)

(And yes Laurence is a cat in this stfu)
(And yes the drawing below is not finished)

Laurence wheezed a curse word as he felt another punch hit his chest. He gasped as he winced in pain, trying not to yell. He knew Aphmau would cry if they knew a guard was beating him up, so he stayed quiet.

"Last chance laurence... where are you hiding the pheonix alliance...?" A male guard gruffed out as Laurance looked up, wincing in pain.

He then spat in his face, a mixture of blood and spit. The guard shook it off and raised his leather glove, drenched in laurences blood "WHY YOU!..."

"Thats enough, Zenix!"

Laurance froze as the voice sounded too familiar. To much like a ro'meare....

"Vylad, he hasn't HAD enough! One more good punch!"

"Zenix, STOP.."

Zenix gruffed and took Laurences collar shirt, and Laurance could feel his breath get faster. "This isn't OVER..."

Zenix left, and the cell door slammed shut before he entered Aphmau's cell. Laurance pulled on the chains and the rope around him, but nothing.

"Get angry, COME ON LAURANCE!" Laurance thought as he tried to angry, but no. He was... fustrated...

"I wil, not let him hurt her.." Vylad's cold, but softening voice, soothed Laurance a bit.

"T-thank you..." Laurance muttered before he saw Vylad come Into view. Laurance was surprised when he took out an ocarina and sat down.

He played a melody, so soothing and soft... "its beautiful..." Laurance muttered.

Vylad stopped and gazed and Laurance. "It was my mothers..."

Vylad sighed and looked at laurence. "Whats it like?.."

"Like what?"
"In the rebel side? Do you steal food? Do you run away from guards?"
"We only steal when someone steals from us.. no.. my sister helps us get food, she is part of the rebellion bt her town does not know.. as for food we have to share it... we rarely get 3 meals a day..."

"Sounds hard... I bet my brother would love it out there.." Vylad gazed dreamily at the wall.

"Zane?."
"No.. Garroth.."

They stopped talking because a scream was in the next cell. Laurance tried to stand up, but being tied down isn't helping. Laurance stuggled, before he gazed at Vylad, who was in tears holding up a key.

"If I do this, promise you will take Garroth with you?.."

Laurance feared that if he let a Ro'meare get with him, the whole rebellion was off. But what could he do to save aphmau?

He nodded, and Vylad unlocked the chains. Laurance looked at Vylad, who was in tears. Beaten by his father, his mother gone, now betraying his family line. He would probably have been killed now...

"Why did you do this?.." Laurence asked, scared for an answer.

"Because I don't want Garroth to be killed...."
"What?"
"On his 21th birthday, in two days, I over heard my father saying to poison his drink at the ceremony. I don't want my big brother to die, my father only wants to do it because he doesn't want a nice king. He wants-"

Another scream. and a shout of pain. Laurance looked at Vylad, who was sniffling at his tears. "P-please protect him.."

"I will.." Laurance ran out of the cell, and noticed a gleaming, emerald sword next to the cell. Must be Vylads... he took it and ran to the next cell. From the cell bars, he could see Aphmau covered in her own blood, a slap mark on her cheek. "A-aphmau!" She gazed up, and smiled weakly, before coughing something red up.

Blood...

"Aphmau, don't worry, im gonna get you out of here!"

Laurance banged on the cell door, then stopped as Vylad came out of his cell to unlock Aphmau's door. Laurance swung the cell open, and ran to Aphmau's side. "Aph, stay with me!"

Vylad unlocked Aphmau's chain, and Laurance carried her bridle style. Aphmau held on to him, wrapping one arm around his shoulder while another on his chest. It wa midnight, so they can sneak out of the place easily. Vylad cut them off, and rushed down a hall. "This way if you want to live..."

Vylad rushed down the dark hallay before opening a grand door. Inside was amaing furniture, something Laurance has never had. On a large bed, sat a boy with blondish hair, gazing down at a helmet. "Garroth!" Vylad quketly shouted, which got his attention.

"Vylad! Who are they?.."
"Please, big brother, follow them to freedom!"

Garroth's expression changed. Freedom was something he hasn't had in forever... "w-what about you?..."

"I will distract the others, please, go!"

Garroth grabbed his helmet, a diamond sword and shield. They all rushed out of the room. Vylad stopped at a pinting of his mother, a woman with black hair and emerald eyes. He carefully placed a finger to the amulet she wa as wearing, and it quickly opened into an entrance. Garroth went inside with us, but quickly stopped asnhe noticed Vylad hadn't entered.

"Good luck, big brother.." Vylad flicked the switch, and the door closed.

Even after walking miles away from the door, we could still here the young boys cries..

Yep

Vylad bb nooo
