Chapter Twenty-Four
It's now been a week since Lee's disappearance, and Stampy has gotten pretty worried. He hasn't been sleeping well and he's always anxious. Squid is pretty worried, but not as much as Stampy.
At The Secret Location
Lee growls at Hit as he paces around the outside of his cell.
"If you're gonna do anything, just do it already!" He huffed, obviously annoyed at HTT. He hasn't done anything to him.
"I am not going to harm you during this week, this week is just to scare your friends." HTT smirked.
"You're sick...a disgusting person! A hope you know that!" Lee barked. Hit rolled his eyes.
"I'm the best at being bad~" He purred, glaring at Lee threw the bars. Lee rolled his eyes and sat down.
Back with Stampy and Friends
"I'm so worried about him, Squid! What if Hit's killing him slowly!? It's all my fault..."
"Stampy, that's not true...you know it isn't. This would've happened if you went away or not..."
"It's still my fault! I could've fought him off and Lee would still be here! And he'd be safe..."
"Stampy-" Squid was cut off by a bang. A gunshot, rather.
"What the Nether was that!?" Stampy asked worriedly. They rushed outside and checked everything, The DogHouse was the last thing they checked, because it had a lock now. They unlocked it and rushed inside, looking around.
Stampy almost screamed when he found some dead dogs. He looked around. The attacker must not've stayed very long as they weren't there anymore. Stampy looked down and kneeled down to see what dogs he had lost. He identified Duncan and Barnaby. He wiped away tears and stood.
"I'm going to kill this man."
When Squid heard this, he was a bit scared. He hadn't seen him this angry. But he liked where this was going. He helped Stampy bury the two dogs and they had a mini funeral, Squid didn't mind doing this for Stampy because he respected him.
They head off after the funeral and go to try and find the secret location where HTT was keeping Lee. They searched far and low for that castle/whatever it was, but they couldn't find it. Finally giving up, and heading back.
Stampy sighed, sitting down in his bed. He wiped his eyes and climbed the ladder to Lee's room, just wanting to see it. He found a note on his bed and gasped, hurrying over to read it. It was a red card with the location of the 'castle' Hit kept Lee. Stampy gasped and ran downstairs with the note, trying to get Squid's attention.
"SQUIIIIIIIID!!!" He yelled, running around. Squid looked at him worriedly, not knowing what was going on except for the 90% chance it had HTT in it.
"What!?" He asked, trying to calm him down. Stampy showed him the card. Squid looked at it and gasped. "Oh my Notch!" He said, not thinking Hit would even let them know where they kept Lee at, especially now.
"I know! Let's go!!" Stampy said and started running. Squid ran after him, not being far behind; he was surprised Stampy could even run that fast. But of course, he was going to get to see Lee again, so it was very except-able.
They finally made it to the castle, sneaking in carefully in order to not get caught. They looked around; they stumbled upon a sleeping goblin looking creature with some keys. They exchanged a look and nodded to each other.
They crept over to it and snuck the keys from it silently. The only sound in the room was the jangle of the keys. They made sure the goblin didn't wake up so they could sneak away. They hid behind a wall and looked threw the keys. They all had numbers on them.
Squid and Stampy looked at each other confusedly. "Uh, do you think it's the cell numbers...?" Squid asked. Stampy blinked and looked back at the keys, then nodded. "Yeah..."
They then snuck around the castle to try and find the cells. HTT rebuilt the castle so they couldn't exactly pinpoint the cells. They searched for about an hour until they finally stumbled upon the cells. They walked indie and looked around.
20 cells were present, explaining how there were 20 keys. They were about to start looking when they felt a strange presence behind them. They slowly turned around to find HTT standing before them.
"Ah, looks like our guests have arrived~" He says. The two back away slightly. A strange clacking of heels is heard behind them, and they turn around to find a woman. They are intimidated by her as she didn't look like a normal girl. Stampy and Squid looked up at her confusedly.
She got the keys away before they could even blink. "Hey!" Stampy huffed and tried to get them back. "Give us back Lee-Bear!!" He growled, pulling his weapon and slashing at them. HTT easily snapped his sword in half, then threw it to the side.
"Wha- How did you break diamond!?" Stampy exclaimed, extremely shocked. He never thought Hit could be that strong. Hit rolled his eyes and put a hand on his hip.
"I have my ways, Tabby Cat." He glared. He walked around them. Stampy and Squid didn't dare to turn their backs on him. They followed his every move to make sure he stayed at a safe distance. Squid sort of wanted to get out of here but he new Stampy wasn't leaving without Lee.
"U-Uh...g-give us back Lee-Bear!" Stampy stuttered, a bit afraid. He tried not to show it, though. He bit his lip and tried to look tough.
"Lost your confidence, hm~?" Hit smirked. He could smell fear. He walked to Stampy. "Make. Me."
Stampy growled, getting confident and tackling him, dragging his claws down his face. Hit was surprised, he was knocked back into the ground, growling as his face was torn up. Squid started to take out the mysterious lady so she couldn't help Hit.
HTT tried to get Stampy off, though he was weakened by him. He eventually got him off and stood up. "Just wait and see what I'm going to do to your little friend NOW!" He shouted and ran off.
Stampy's eyes widened and he tried to follow him, but the lady made them stay, locking them into a cell. "Let us out of here!! We need to find Lee!!"
Finally, the mysterious woman spoke. "Oh, don't worry. You'll get to see him." She said in a sly tone. She was smirking. Stampy's stomach dropped as he realized what was about to go on. "DON'T YOU DARE!!"
After a little bit, Hit came out again, dragging something that looked like a mutilated person by a chain and collar. Stampy looked at it worriedly, gripping the bars.
"Oh my Notch...WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM!?" He shouted and snarled, attempting to get out. Stampy wanted to save Lee so bad. Squid tried to calm him down, though he was angry as well.
"You shouldn't have messed with me." Hit growled as the lights turned on. Lee winced as he heard the loud noises of them turning on, he tried to get the collar off, and he probably could if he wasn't that weak.
"You let him go, right now! You're an evil evil man, Hit!!" Stampy said, he was almost crying out of sadness and frustration. He just. Wanted. Lee. He would do anything to get him back right now.
"We had a deal! You give me your Lovely World and I'll let you have the bear!!" HTT growled, yanking Lee over by the chain. Lee panted as he was loosing blood very quickly, though he shook his head to Stampy, telling him not to take the deal.
"DEAL! DEAL JUST LET ME HAVE HIM!!" Stampy shouted, tears rolling down his face eagerly. Hit smirked evilly and unlocked the cage doors. Stampy ran out and hugged Lee tightly, not wanting to ever let him go again. Lee whimpered but hugged him back.
After a moment, while Hit and the woman were talking, Stampy pulled back slightly and checked out Lee's wounds to make sure they weren't fatal. Stampy was still crying a bit, he was so happy he could hug Lee again.
"Stamps, it's-it's okay, I promise!" Lee said, looking up at him and trying to calm him down. Stampy hugged him again and smiled.
"I'm so happy to see you!!" He said. Lee smiled a little as well. "I...I'm happy to see you too, but you shouldn't of...did that..." He sighed. "Your world is way more important than me!"
"Nothing is as important as you! I love you so much, oh my Notch..." He said and hugged him tighter.
"I...I love you too, Stamps..."
