The Prisoner of the Cruel Kidnapper

Shadow In The Darkness

After a few weeks of travel, Micah and Alex finally reached the castle,...

The castle was far away near the wide river when their horses got there, some of the guards who were assigned to guard the castle approached the main Gate and looked at Alex and immediately recognized him when Alex brought a plaque belonging to the King...

''Give respect to her highness the crown princess.'' shouted Alex in such a resolute voice.

The guards immediately opened the gates of the Castle and dropped their bodies to pay their respects to the Princess..

not to forget also some female servants dropped her..

''Respect for her Highness Princess.'' they said in unison..

Micah nodded and asked them to stand up and welcomed Alex's helping hand as the man reached out..

They also came down together.....

''Your highness.Let us serve your majesty in this place..''

Micah looked at the ten maids and frowned for a moment...

''How are you guys here.I mean the food source....''

One of the female servants approached..

''Your highness..during this time we always supply food from the kingdom so.we depend on the food source from the kingdom...''

''No. If so then from now on we should stop asking for food from the kingdom..''

Alex was also the servants staring at each other in surprise..

''Then what do we do if we stop taking food from the kingdom...''

Micah looked at them and smiled...

''We will start planting now.we will use whatever is around this castle to survive...the enemies will detect this castle and I don't want that to happen...''

Alex nodded in understanding he was more and more amazed by Micah's mature mind, she was a special girl...

Alex stepped closer to the servants and looked at them one by one..

''Do you agree...''

''We will serve the noble for life..

Micah looked at Alex and smiled..

*******

Day after day through Micah with a happy heart however he likes this castle.he is happy like being in a villa of his own..no one would bother him, including Zack, of course, it made Micah feel at home..

Micah had finished bathing because all day he went directly with Alex and also the servants to start planting food to eat, and Alex taught him how to catch fish..Micah was so happy to live in this castle that he wanted nothing more..

That afternoon, the ceiling began to sink.The servants and the guards were already at their jobs each room looked deserted..Micah's been looking for Alex since he came in to take a bath..Alex is not seen again.Where is the man...?

Micah stepped up to the door of the Castle, a little horrified by the circumstances surrounding the darkened Castle..The castle is located far from where the people live. But Micah was very curious, where was Alex..?

The girl ventured out of the door and stepped slowly towards the gate, but as she was about to get near the gate, Micah saw some shadows speaking not far from her..who are those people..?

because Micah was still terrified, he hid in a tree near the gate and kept peeking..

But when he peeked he saw no one there, strange...Micah sighed, and held his body up, but he was surprised to see Alex, out of nowhere, so Micah was surprised...

''Alex.....''

''Mikha.why to be outside, you know it is very dangerous.'' said Alex with a sharp look..

The deg!!!

Micah was a little surprised to see the sudden arrival of Alex, where this man came from, but Micah had not seen him in the slightest.he had even looked for him around the castle. But seeing Alex here his heart calmed down...Micah sighed...

They look at each other...

''Mikha......''

''Say where you are.I don't know once, I look for you everywhere but you don't exist.'' Micah said with wet eyes...

Alex touched Micah's face..

''I was looking around, I went around the castle to make sure that everything would be fine...''

''You went around the castle..''

''Hum..''

''No...wait......''

''Almost Micah....''

Micah turned his head once more and became slightly trembling...

''What's up..''

''I see some people are talking outside the gate.Did you see it.,..''

Alex glanced at the same spot Micah showed..

''No. I didn't see anyone. You may have seen a ghost...''

Micah shook his head once more..

''I'm sure that it was Alex's man.What I saw was not a ghost...''

Alex held Micah's shoulder and asked for his attention...

''Mikha..what if we just go in..we talk inside.if what you're afraid of is true then you should hide.'' Alex said a little forcefully...

Micah finally relented..after all maybe he did see it wrong,..it is impossible that what he saw was the shadow of people..maybe it was a ghost...??

Micah's body goosebumps instantly and he steps with Alex into the castle while Alex still turns his face to the darkness with a mysterious look...

***********

After a few days Zack was finally able to recover his body, and he did not wait for him to find Micah as soon as possible because Zack did not want to waste any of his precious time taking his own back..

With Zack's army beginning to wander through the forest and search for Micah's trail, he concentrates on every little trail Alex and Micah leave while fleeing, this time Zack won't spare Alex...who had taken Micah away from him..

After riding non-stop...Zack and his entourage finally arrive at a lake that attracts the attention of Zack.The lake is very calm and able to make anyone interested but the lake is poisonous to many people who died because of ignorance..

Zack stopped his horse and got down from there.

Zack stared at the poisoned Lake in Micah's daughter's dress, smiling coldly.there was a dead horse by the poolside and based on his vision, the horse was deliberately placed on the edge of the pool to look like it was killed because of the poison...

Zack looked at one of the soldiers who approached him...

''Your highness prince...''

''What did you find.what did the horse die of poison...''

Soldier shakes..

''The horse was killed by the sword, your majesty...''

Silent...

Zack clenched his hand.he already knew where to go now...
