Squid's POV

We started heading towards the city and the golden castle. As we walked the two ran around me, playing some sort of game. And I realized I didn't know their names.

"Hey you two," I call to them, they had gotten a little ways ahead so they ran back towards me.

"Yeah?" Said the girl as she neared me.

"I just realized I don't know your names" I say, looking at each of them.

"Oh, said the boy, "I'm Damon, and that's Helena." He says, gesturing to him, then the girl.

I nod, "so are you guys brother and sister? Or...?"

"No, we're best friends, though I guess it can be easy to think we're siblings." Said Helena.

I nodded again, "anyways, we need to get to the castle soon, we're losing daylight standing around, let's go. And stay near me okay? If it gets too dark before we get there, mobs will spawn, and you two don't look like you can fight very well just yet."

They nod and stand next to me as we head towards the city. Almost as soon as we reach the gates, the sun sinks below the horizon. Glow stone lamps illuminate the city, but there are still many dark crevices where mobs can spawn. I tighten my grip on my sword as we continue on, but I relax when I see that there are several guards walking around.

When we get to the castle, the doors open and a guy, probably in his twenties peeks his head out, he has curly light brown hair, and dark brown eyes, a purple cloak and a red creeper necklace. He looks at out little trio and his eyes widen. He rushes over to us and hugs the two kids.

"Helena! Damon! Thank notch you guys are back safely!" He lets go of them and stands up, "you guys have been told over and over-"

Damon cut him off, "to be back before dark, we know, we know" he says rolling his eyes.

The guy looks at me, "did you bring them back?" He asks, tilting his head to the side a little bit.

I nod, "yeah, they were throwing pebbles at me," I say to him, "but I had realized it was getting dark so I decided to take them home, since it would do them no good to be out in the dark."

He smiles, "well, thank you for bringing them back, and  I'm Seto, by the way." He says, "would you like to come inside?"

I shrug, "sure," I reply.

Seto and the small duo walk inside the castle, and I follow suit. They lead me down a series of corridors to a large room, there's a fireplace, and several chairs and a few couches. There are a few people sitting down and chatting, but they go silent and stare at me.

There is a guy with light brown eyes and hair with a checkered hoodie and dog tags {Mitch}, a furry in a suit {Jerome}, a mudkip in a suit {Quentin}, a spiky haired blonde with blue eyes and a grey shirt with a gold ingot on it {Brice}, a guy with long-ish hair and red eyes with green and black headphones and a white v-neck {Ty}, and lastly, a guy in a spacesuit with his helmet on the table in front of him, and he has light brown hair and a green and a blue eye {Jason}. (A/N that was one long sentence XD)

After a few moments, the furry (which I believe to be a bacca) and the guy in the hoodie stand up and run over to Damon.

The hoodie guy grabs Damon and hugs him tightly "where were you? You know to be back before dark!" He says, holding Damon out in front of him and shaking him slightly. Damon just rolled his eyes at the remark.

The bacca whispers something to the hoodie guy, and points to me. Hoodie guy looks at me in confusion, and whispers something to the bacca, setting Damon down, who went over to Helena, Seto, and Spiky. The bacca nods, and Mitch steps towards me.

His face becomes slightly disgusted and angry, as he says one word "Squid," my eyes widen, the bacca must've smelled that I was a squid, or a hybrid at the least.

"You sure Mitch?" Asked spacesuit, 'ah, his name is Mitch then'.

"I'm sure Jason, Jerome scented squid, and realized it was this dude," he says, pointing at me when he says 'this dude'.

I started to back up, and Mitch and Jerome walked towards me. I turned and started to run, but tripped and fell, hitting my head on the corner of the table. My vision went blurry, and I blacked out.

Well, I hope you doods enjoyed this chapter as much as I did. :)
