Chapter 6 Abduction

5 hours earlier in the Royal Palace the Royal family had set off to look for a butler for Maria. At the front of the Palace the Royal family is boarding their carriage.

"Daddy, Daddy am I really getting my own personal butler?" Maria said excitedly ever since she heard about her getting a butler she had been ecstatic.

"Yes my dear, but before that you have to behave yourself ok?" Victoria told Maria to quiet her down.

"Hum fine" Marie Pouted. Being pampered by her parents and the rest of the castle servants and staff Marie had gotten used to getting everything she wants.

As the carriage was about to go they stopped by a messenger. Tried and sweaty the man still stood at attention "Your Majesties i have a message delivered from the Garrison Captain concerning the issue about missing boys" .

Victoria stepped out of the carriage, greeted the Messenger telling him to go and rest.

"Well Honey what does it say?" Victor asked.

"It says here that Luther is close to finding their hideout" Victoria read the Letter out loud.

"Then that's good news this matter could finally be solved, I've had much trouble trying to keep the public from knowing about it" Victor sighed. Two weeks ago there were reports about missing boys from the ages of 5 to 7. And became more of a problem as days passed with more increasing reports on missing boys. Thus it was dubbed the Piper Kidnappings.

"Yes that is good but from reading the letter over Luther has decided to go after the perpetrators hideout by himself" Victoria added.

"By himself? Is he mad?" Victor yelled.

"Father why are you yelling has something happened to Mr. Luther?" Marie asked, the two have completely forgotten about her.

"No my dear in fact it's the opposite, Gather the Royal Guards Luther has given us the presumed location tell them to Go there immediately at once" Victoria Yelled "Suicidal bastard" She muttered. Luther is acting this way because his boy was one of the missing children and hoping to find his son he has decided to rush to the hideout without care for his safety.

"I too will go" Victor added "Sorry my darling but we will have to put a hold on your butler".

"Aww but why can't you just let the Guards deal with them Father?" Maria groaned.

"Yes my Husband they are enough" Victoria added.

"Well they may be enough but they don't call me the sword fiend for nothing, I will go just in case something goes wrong" with that Victor kidded his Wife and hugged his daughter before running off to the armory.

PRESENT TIME

"It's ok sweety" Vera said "It'll be quick i promise".

"Ok" Edwin said. 'I mean I can't jump to conclusions. I've been doing that my whole life on earth'.

With that Edwin had let his guard down. Taking in the scenery of the Forest "Huh pretty".

Before he could say anything a sharp pain struck his head and he was knocked out cold.

Waking up in a dark room Edwin immediately covered his nose. 'Ugh It smells so bad in here' he thought. Taking a deep breath through his mouth he lets go of his nose and starts to try to move around. 'Huh i can move' with that he tried to feel his surroundings.

Feeling something soft he touched it and then grabbed it trying to examine what it was he felt it over until reaching the end. Feeling a wet and sticky substance he brought his hand in front of his nose.

"Huh it smells like Iron" thinking about this Edwin quickly realized what it was 'Of course wet and sticky a long soft rod It's Blood'

Quickly dropping the item in his grasp Edwin started to panic. Jumping up and running whichever direction just away from where he had found the piece of arm or leg. He kept running until he ran into something hard. With a big thud and falling back it was a wall.

Suddenly a torch lit up followed by more lighting up the wall surrounding Edwin. It was better off if it was dark because with the light from the torches Edwin could see the horror he was in. Children all around him were dead missing limbs or heads the floor was stained with blood. Every corner there was a pile up of bodies all missing eyes and mouths. Their insides were gone where their stomach should be was replaced with a long open cut revealing the empty bellies of their children.

Edwin screamed in horror. "AHHHHHHHHHHH"

Then he heard a door open.
