it was time! it was time to save max and kendra. without giving it much thought, i entered the building. outside, all of the guards were knocked out. thanks to Nathan of course. I opened the door and entered stealthily. although all the guards were unconcious and I could just walk in as if I owned the place, but nathan warned me about being too confident. he said there's always a posibility that one or two people escaped the potion. . The castle was beautiful, and even though I was in a hurry, I couldn't help but gape at the amazing decor. It was so regal and looked like a scene in a fancy movie. I had to the use all the amount of self control I had to stop staring and concentrate. . I walked in and followed the map exactly, when I got to where max was locked, I found out that there were no guards there, I kept walking and finally entered the chamber. EMPTY! it was empty no one was there, no guards no prisoners. does that mean that he wasn't locked up here. oh lord our plan is ruined. I wish I could contact nathan. I was lost, I didn't know if I should abort mission or go search for him else where. I have only fifteen minutes or less before the potion fades of. where will i start looking for him in such a gigantic place. oh this is useless. I was so desprate to find max that I couldn't leave the palace though time was not in my favour. I left the chamber where max was supposed to be and started looking around the castle like a crazy person. I opened every door I came across and yelled Max's name at the top of my voice. I kept calling his name without a care in the world. I finally stopped when I heard someone calling my name. "kara!" I heard the voice say repeatedly, it was loud and clear, but i couldn't tell where it was coming from. it sounded far yet really close. "who is it ? where are you? Max? is that you?" I asked with tears in my eyes. "kara, chill, just concentrate and listen. " i heard the voice again, and that is when i realized that it was nathan who was calling me. but where is he? "nathan?" I asked shaking. "if max is not in the special chamber, then check the dungeon. the map will lead you. now hurry up we have seven minutes." he said and then his voice faded slowly. that's when I realized that he wasn't actually close. he was in my head! talking to me telepathically. . I ran as fast as could to the first chamber cause I threw the map there earlier. I checked it and spotted the dungeons location. it was far but I had hope that I would make it. I ran as fast as could, making sure I took all the right turns, after using at least five minutes out of my seven minutes, I finally made it to the dungeon. It was dark and creepy and there was no source of light because it was underground. but I could see the place quite fairly, thanks to the fact that my vampire side is starting to take over. I walked quickly and started checking cell by cell, calling max's name but it was useless. the dungeon was huge and had thousands of cells and prisoners. after despretely calling and checking, I sat on the floor hopelessly and started crying. that was all I could do. I lost fifteen minutes without getting anything. I didn't have a watch but I knew there were only few seconds left. some guards were already regaining consciousness. that's when an idea hit me, I didn't know if it'll work but I had to try. I closed my eyes and thought of max, nothing else but max. then I said his name without opening my mouth. I heard my voice in my head. it was weak and low and I doubt he will hear it, but i called anyway. "max, where are you. max." i said it severally, but to my disappointment, there was no reply. time was up and I could see the guards outside the dungeon waking up, and wondering how they got to the position they were in. and that is when i knew I had to give up. "i'm sorry i failed you max." I said in my head. tears rolled down my cheeks. "kara, is that you." I heard max's manly voice in my heard. "yes it me max, where are you?" i said almost out loud. "in the Prince's castle, locked up, don't worry about me i'm fine just stay saf_ _" "_ _ what is your cell number?" I said cutting him off. "what? don't come to the castle kara, it's dangerous" he started, wtf? he was wasting my time. "just tell me " I said eagarly. it was hard for me communicating through our minds and max was making it harder. "123" he said. "kara where are you abort mission. time's up." nathan's voice called. "I'm almost there, i'll meet you once I save max." I pleaded "no kara, we will try this again. just leave that place." nathan said "kara, who are you talking to?" max's voice echoed. "nathan where are you, things are getting messy out here. " josh said. I started getting confused, i couldn't concentrate on finding max because of all the noises in my head. I had max, nathan and josh's thoughts linked to my head and it was making me dizzy. so, I closed my eyes and cut them all out of my head. i knew losing contact was a bad thing but i had to find max. 123 he said. . 127, 126 125 124 , ahhhh 123. finally. "max?" I said hopefully. the guy in the cell turned to face me, and it was max. his hands were locked up in some strong huge metallic box. probably to stop him from using his element. and the his mouth was covered with some metallic mask. his legs were chained to the ground.
