Chapter Two; "Kidnaping a fool"
#Author’s P.O.V.
In an empty hallway, loud footsteps could be heard rushing towards a room located in the core of the castle.
"My lord, w-we f-f-found their place!!" He shouted, panting heavily.
"Lower your voice, Adam, you know that the lord hates loud noises" A tall man with a dark skin tone and white hair replied calmly.
"I know Al but it's important news!"
"It's Alastair for you young man."
"Enough chitchatting, tell me what did you find?" A deep voice said coldly disturbing their talk.
"My lord, regarding the mission you gave me, I have caught the thread tip finally!! We were able to locate a part of their colony. They have caught a girl who was sitting in a booth nearby their base, regarding the boy we able to catch she was a-"
"No need for details regarding the girl, just say the important parts only. Our lord time is expensive to just listen to you rambling nonsense on an unknown girl." Alastair interrupted him.
"Bu-"
"No more but's, my lord what do you want to do?"
"Just keep an eye on them eventually they'll lead us to their den." He answered unbothered, focusing on the papers that are put on the desk in front of him.
Adam looked at the man, with pitch-black hair, seriously and said.
"My lord, the girl looks like a noble-woman because of her unusual eye color! They were saying she has two colors!!"
Just as Alastair was going to interrupt him with My-Lord-Time-Is-Expansive, the man that seemed to be unbothered suddenly got interested.
"Clarify more!" He said sharply narrowing his green-colored eyes.

“I gave her a small dosage why she’s still not awake?” One of the men wondered.
“Is she dead? Did we kill her??!” The other asked in a wary tone.
“Oh no, the big boss will kill us if he knew that one of the hostages has died!!”
“Stop talking gibberish, you idiots! She’s not died if so then she’ll not be able to snore like that!!” A skinny and short man replied to them in annoyance.
“Hahahaha, you are right boss she snores like an old train” The fatty replied and they started laughing loudly.
Then a loud voice interrupted their laughter.
“Stopp! My sweet waffles, my lovely cup of white chocolate come back to mama!! I’ll not eat you, I promise!”
#Layna P.O.V.
“Hehehe, I got you!”
Happiness filled me after being able to catch the waffles and the white chocolate cups. Running after they made me lose my breath because of how fast they run.
"Aren't you going to catch me?" The human-size dark chocolate cup questioned me with sadness drawn on his face.
"Nah, I only need my white chocolate, go away! " I replied irritated and was going to start digging in my food.
Then an earthquake happened, a burst of loud laughter followed it, chattering my dream-like broken glass. And my poor snack has run away from me, again!!
“Stopp! My sweet waffle, my lovely cup of white chocolate come back to mama!! I’ll not eat you, I promise!”
"Looks like our sleepy princess has decided to wake up!” A sarcastic voice replied.
"Boss, you mean sleepy train. " Another sarcastic yet loud voice responded and laughter exploded like a volcano.
“Yaa, stop laughing so loudly theirs's people who are trying to sleep here!!” I yelled annoyed.
Humph, these idiots they don’t know that people are trying to sleep here!
“My snacks are all gone” I muttered sadly and tried to complete my sleep on my soft pillow that’s is made out of… rocks?!
Wait a minute, who was laughing just now? And from when was my pillow made of rocks? Where is my soft silk pillow filled with white goose feathers?
My eyes shot open, only to see darkness.
"Omo, I can't see! I'm blind now!! Waah, I should have listened to Mrs. Brown when she told me to stop eating sweets like a vacuum." I screamed in horror as darkness was the only thing I could see.
(A/N: Omo could be used as a sound when you got surprised by something)
"Go and remove her blindfold or I make her blind for real."
"Yes, boss."
After this short discussion, I heard heavy footsteps nearing me. Then out of nowhere light started seeping into my eyesight.
"I can finally see! The cake didn't make me blind" I was crying tears of happiness and then it hit me.
I'M KIDNAPPED!

"Are you sure she's not crazy?" One of the men whispered to his buddy.
"I doubt that, I think we kidnapped a mentally ill person."
"Didn't the boy say she looked like a noble-woman?" He answered confused.
"I also doubt that. "
"Me too." He nodded in agreement and stopped talking to be able to focus again on the crazy-fake-noble-woman they caught.
Just as reality hit Layna, she raised her head to see a bunch of eyes staring at her as if she's a maniac. These eyes belong to a bunch of bandits who were surrounding a table food with food and drinks.
"Hey, snoring train which family do you belong to?"
"Excuse me! Mr. fatty I don't snore, don't say things like that to me!!" She puffed her cheeks in annoyance.
"Do you even know what situation you got yourself into?" One of them wondered.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"You are kidnapped! K-I-D-N-A-P-P-E-D!!"
"Yeah, I know I'm kidnapped. What do you want me to do?"
"Uh- cry, be afraid, shout or something?" The man answered bewildered by her.
"She's stupid, she will not understand you. Don't bother explaining to her" One of his buddies replied sighing in frustration.
"Hehe, you idiots you call me the idiot but you don't know that I have a se-secret wea- " She stopped mid-way while talking as she was trying to reach to her pocket to realize that her so-called 'secret weapon' is gone.
"You were saying?" Their boss asked mockingly.
"Yaaa, why are you always mocking me!"
"Now enough talking, since she wakes up let's get going."
"Yes, boss." They replied.
'OhMyGodOhMyGodOhMyGodOhMyGodOhMyGodOhMyGod! What I'm going to do! I'm dead meat, how did I forget my wand?!'
As Layna was panicking inside a loud crashing voice could be heard followed by a harsh earthquake that moved the whole place.
