The Escape
Nikka P.O.V.
I ran towards the forest, my pursuers not far behind. I ducked behind a large stone and winced. I had hurt my knee as I escaped that nasty jail. The guards surrounded me, and I gave up. They took me back to my slimy cage and left me there without food, water, or medical attention. I groaned clutched my right knee, the paid becoming unbearable. A hooded figure appeared at the bars out of nowhere. He motioned for me to keep quiet, and I obeyed, fearing he-or she- would harm me if I didn't. The strange person pulled a large bronze key form somewhere in their cloak, and slid it into the lock. A gust of wind blew the hood away from their face, and they quickly turned away. "HEY! Who are you? What or you doing with that impudent scum?!?" A guard shouted as he ran toward the figure The cloak slid off the shoulders of a muscular wolf boy, carrying a spear and sword, a dagger strapped to his chest. "Do you need something, Captain Roland?" The wolf boy asked, turning one ear back towards me. "No, sir. I thought you were someone else. Continue. Though let me tell you, that one has an injured knee. Not a good cart bearer." The guard, Captain Roland said, leaving around the corner. The boy turned back to me, turning the key. he had a little bit of brown fur between his eyes, a mop of orange hair on his head, and a mischievous grin. "Who are you?" I asked, pulling a stray lock of hair behind my ear. "Ssh. I'll explain later. Can you walk on that knee? He said it was hurt." He asked, swinging the door open. "I-i think so. Why?" The boy didn't answer, but instead grabbed my arm and pulled my to my feet. We walked into town, the boys cloak wrapped around my shoulders.
