Explosions could be heard all over the ce. And every time there was an explosion, the cell shook.
"Arghh! Who are you?"
"Take them!"
"Ahhh!"
The soldiers'' cries and yells could be heard by Vivian. And it wasing closer and closer. "Can you tell me what''s going on?" She shuddered even more.
The hooded girl smiled as she nced at her. "An ally is on their way," the hooded girl replied. "However, this is just too extravagant and showy. I have advised them to do things more subtly." The hooded girl continued to mumble.. Vivian gazed down into the underground''s deserted, ck corridors. The light from the torches was dwindling. Until...
"Ahhhhhh!" A guard was hurled at them and fell just in front of their cell.
"Ah!" Vivian shrieked. But everything got shrouded with silence which made Vivian gulped.
"They''re here." The hooded girl beside her spoke. Suddenly they could hear footsteps approaching.
"Mdy, we''re here," Two cloaked figures emerged from the hall''s darkness. They came to a halt in front of the cell.
"You arrived sooner than nned."
"We can''t wait any longer since the diversion is already in motion...and...and...wahhhhh! I can''t bear the thought of how much Mdy is suffering now within this dreadful jail!" The shorter, hooded individual with a feminine voice began to weep.
"Dorris... Stop being too loud, or we''ll be discovered," said the taller one, who spoke in a masculine voice. He knelt down in front of the knocked-out guard.
''Discover? Isn''t the entire dungeon aware that you''re both already present?'' Vivian wondered as she observed the spectacle unfolding in front of her.
The taller one took something from the sleeping guard. "All right, got the keys," he eximed. He unlocked the cell right away.
"Let''s depart immediately before the reinforcements arrive." The hooded girl spoke.
But before they could leave the jail, someone grabbed the hooded girl''s dress straps. When she turned back, she saw the other girls who had been imprisoned beside her.
"Please! Let use with you." In a pleading tone, they said.
The hooded girl stroked their heads and smiled. "Don''t worry. We intend to get you all out of here as soon as possible."
When the girls heard her statement, their hearts were filled with joy. "Are we-are we finally getting out of here?"
"Yes," the hooded girl responded, her voice gleeful. "It is, after all, part of our deal." She went on to say.
''What part of the deal?'' They wanted to inquire, but they simply kept it to themselves. The most important thing was that they will eventually be freed.
"The teleportation array has already beenpleted." Dorris, the second hooded girl, had spoken. Outside the prison, they noticed arge circle with various characters glowing on the ground.
"Good..." The hooded girl approached the others. "If you enter inside that magical circle, it will lead you out of the dungeon."
The girls, one by one, heeded what the hooded girl instructed and walked on the magical arrangement. When they were all there, the hooded girl turned to face the final girl who wasn''t moving an inch to upy her spot.
''Teleportation?'' Vivian took a nce at them. This unexpected turn of events caught her off guard. ''Creating a teleportation array is a difficult feat. Even if she was still a child, her parents, who were both magical schrs before they died in a bandit raid, taught her a great deal about magic.''
"Is something that matters?" The hooded girl asked with worry in her voice.
"Can you tell me who you are?" Vivian blurted out something startling. The three hooded figures turned to face her.
"Of course, Mdy is the youngest daughter of..." Dorris was elbowed before she couldplete her sentence by the mysterious hooded girl.
"Idiot." The cloaked male shook his head.
"Ah! That''s correct! I forgot this is a discreet mission. I sincerely apologize to mdy." Dorris bowed her head.
"Don''t worry about it." The hooded girl approached Vivian and lowered herself to her level.
"Those are Dorris and Rein." The hooded girl gestured to the other two, who were simply waving at Vivian. "They are my dependablepanions and helpers. I, for one," She moved her body closer to Vivian''s ears. "My name is Mya, and I shall be the world''s greatest voyager."
"Gre-greatest voyager?" Vivian nced at her, perplexed.
"Yes...but let''s keep it our little secret for now," Mya whispered as she rose up. She extended her right hand to Vivian.
"Let''s get started. Isn''t there someone waiting for you? Your brother? He''s probably worrying sick about you right now."
Vivian moved her hands gently towards Mya. "Yes." When she could hold her hands, Mya drew Vivian to the other girls to the magical array.
The array began to glow vibrantly. A strong gust of winds surrounded them. Mya then motioned to the females with her hands. "This array would take you to Sulkira Vige. Everyone, take care!"
"Take care!" Dorris waved at them.
"Thank you so much!" The girls cried with joy.
"Are we ever going to see each other again?" Vivian screamed at them.
"As long as the world keeps revolving, we might see each other someday," Mya said.
"Yes!" Vivian gave them a sincere smile before they vanished.
The dungeons were once again dark, only weak lights from the torches on the walls kept illuminating them.
"That kid appeared to like you," Rein spoke up.
"She''s a nice kid, that girl," Mya remarked, her face filled with nostalgia as she gazed at the arrangement.
"But honestly, you continued doing things that made people nervous." Rein sighed and said.
''That''s correct! Reprimand ourdy even more!'' Dorris yelled in her head.
"But since I''m not harmed, everything is still ok. Let us now proceed to the Marquess'' residence. Our shipbuilder is probably already doing havoc there." Mya asserted.
"Stop!" The reinforcements had alreadye. They were pointing their spears towards the three. But it was toote to apprehend them. On their feet, another array was created.
"Stop them!" The knights simply grasped the air, and the three disappeared into nothingness.
