The next day,at 6 am,kuki and abby set to work packing their overnight things and getting ready for 4 climbs that take 2 hours each.
"Ready?" "Ready."
With that they began to climb the first wall then the second finally the third wall. When they got to the 3rd wall,the girls stop to eat lunch. Abby looked in the direction they were headed. The last wall was heavily guarded because beyond that wall was teen castle were Queen cree lived. Abby sighed. Why is it that every time I have to do a rescue mission, its here? Abby thought. She looked to her friend finding that kuki had been staring at her. Kuki knew how Abby felt about the castle. Abby had never told anyone but Kuki about her fear. Her fear of turning in to Cree. She knew that would never happen but she was allowed to be afraid of something she just cant let it show. She only showed her feelings to Kuki cause she knew she could trust her to keep a secret.
Kuki was more hopeful than she had ever been on a rescue mission. She wasn`t hoping that the mission would be a success because they always were. No, she was hoping that the group they were retreiving today would have mushi in it. Her sister lived at the castle but as a prisoner and slave for cree. 10th times the charm kuki thought sarcastically. She realized with a start that they had climbed the final wall while she had been thinking and were now in front of the castle. At the front door were 2 guards. They were the only people who could see the girls mostly because they were wearing a special wrist band that allowed them to see anyone wearing an invisibility suit. The girls walked up to them.
"Hey Sonya. Hey Lee." Kuki whispered to them.
"Hey kuki and Abby" replied Sonya.
"Wally should be here soon" Lee told them.
Almost as soon as he said that, a tall aussie walk over to them wearing a guards uniform. " Hey yall ready to go?" asked wally.
"Yea we ready. is hoagie ready with the hoverjet?" asked abby Ready to go said a voice in her ear.
"Thats good. We`ll see you when we`ve got the group" Said Abby With that, Sonya and Lee opened the doors letting in Abby, Kuki, and Wally. Abby and kuki started running in the direction of the prison cells. Wally went in the other direction heading back outside to board the hover jet so that he can help the group board the jet themselves. Abby and Kuki found the door that held the group tht they had to save. A guard came by holding a tray of some sludge that Kuki thought might be food. The guard opened the door and asked the kids in the cell if any of them want to be free of this cell and surrender. No one answered, at lest not at first. After a minute the girls heard a small female voice say that she surrenders. A young boy told her not to.
"I`m sorry Jack but I can`t take it any more. How are we suppose to know that the knd is real, much less going to save us." replied the girl.
"Alice they ARE real and they WILL save us, we just have to stick it out for abit longer" said Jack.
"I cant it has been too long " replied Alice and then without another word the guard took alice`s hand closed the cell door and dragged alice away. Kuki looked at Abby then raced off in the direction the guard took alice in. Abby stayed, knowing that kuki could handle the situation, and began to break open the door. After a few seconds the door was open.
"who-who are you?" asked a small boy. He appeared to have been crying.
"I guess your Jack,huh?"replied Abby.
"Who are you?" Jack asked more forcefully.
"Relax I`m with the knd and my friend has just gone after Alice. We`re here to rescue you. Now come on unless yall wanna stay here."Abby stated.
She rushed the kids out of the cell and then to ward the back door that led out to the waiting hoverjet.
