chapter 42

__safia
In a dark unfamiliar underground celler, safia stood against the wall, heart pounding with shock and fear she quickly picked up the candlebra, thankful it didn't extinguish, she raised it high again and there they are, the creatures hunter told her about 
Safia whispers *the....bloodsuckers* she looked at them and sure enough, they look just like how hunter described, pale skin, boney long arms with disturbing long claws that are scrapping the floor even when just standing, bald head that has dark thick veins all over it, and mouth filled with sharp teeth that looks like its bones sticking out of the mouth instead of teeth.
There's about a thousand iron cells and each cell held five bloodsuckers, who are at the moment all screeching and banging uncontrollably at the thick iron bars trying to reach safia, who is still standing and holding the candle high above her head while not moving a muscle.
Finally Finding her will back safia jolted and instinctively start to run up the stairs but immediately stop, turning to look at them she spoke out *i can't just run away, i have to do something....im so sorry papa but you've gone too far,...but now..how do i even sneak out to the forest, everything is blocked or guarded*
 She wipe her tears and stepped down the stairs, looking around she thought out loud *but if these things are down here that means there is another secret way, there's no way they're brought in through the gates and doors, there has to be a way down here* 
 
Believing in her theory safia starts to carefully search the walls next to her while making sure not to take a single step close to the cells that are still rattling like crazy, and after a short while she found it, very close to the last stair is a lose brick, she spoke out *this is definitely not the way they're brought in but as long as it leads me out of here, it doesn't matter*
Safia pulled out the brick carefully, then looked through the small hole, she could see a faint light coming through and could feel breeze, gathering her dress safia held tight onto the candlebra, and crawl through the hole which lead her out into the forest just at the left side of the palace, she then gathered a few bushy leafs and covered the small entry, making a mark so that when she comes back she can find the place again.
 Safia held the candlebra before her and sprinted into the forest, jumping over small branches and going under big ones, safia didn't slow down until she finally reached cherry, she attempted to blow out the candle she held only to realize it has long went cold. She threw it away and wipe her tears again as she greeted *hello cherry...I'm sorry for the disturbance but its really urgent, if you don't mind, I'm gonna shout for hunter here*
 Turning away from cherry safia put her hands around mouth and shouted out *hunter!...hunter march!!..hunter!!*
                                                          
__hunter 
Inside the mountain home, sitting in his room trying to read a book to calm his nerves is hunter, but suddenly he felt like someone is calling onto him, so he stood up and went straight to the window room, looking through he saw non other than the safia he's been longing for, calling out to him desperately.
Feeling his world brighten up hunter dash towards the door but was stoped immediately, malik spoke *okay look calm down, i know she's here but it might be a trap..* *what trap uncle, safia is right outside, calling to me, it is no trap*
Malik reason *yes okay maybe but, lets take this sensibly, I'll go check first then if its safe, you can come, okay....hunter* *fine...okay* hunter grumble out.
Malik step out along with a few graduated seniors, all armed.
   ***** ****
As safia was busy screaming hunter, suddenly the bushes around started moving, and soon she's surrounded by twelve armed men all pointing their weapons at her.
Safia kept silent and didn't move a muscle, she watched as a light brown skinned middle age man, with green eyes and black hair that has white streaks, walking towards her, she thought "he looks to be at papa's age, but maybe a bit younger"
Malik spoke *princess safia of blackmoon kingdom, to what do we owe the pleasure of your visit* safia cutesy and spoke *good evening sir, I'm here to see hunter, hunter march leader of the werewolfs* malik chuckles as he spoke *hhhh well you're bold,..you can't see him, leave*
Safia insists *i understand sir, but i give you my word, i come alone and in peace* malik looked safia up and down then ask *how'd you know what i was thinking?* safia reply *you were very obvious, and your face said it all*
 malik nod then spoke *yeah well, you're still not seeing him* and he turns to leave but safia quickly let out *i know you're the werewolfs and i have something very important to tell you...its about the bloodsuckers*
Malik stopped in his track as his face paled upon hearing safia's words, but before he could compose himself he felt a gust of wind sharply went pass him.
Hunter ran towards safia and immediately hugs her as he whispers *i missed you so so much safi* before safia could reply he quickly let go of the hug, taking her hand he started checking for any signs of wond. 
Safia chuckles at his behavior and assure *I'm fine hunter, really* only then did he stop and smiles in relief, when suddenly malik step between them, he took safia's hand as he urgently spoke *come on in we need to talk* and he lead her towards the mountain home.
