Chapter 10:Betrayal and new allies
(Night's perspective)
Night wakes up with a start, she sees Mortem chained to the wall on the other side of the room.
"Morning sleepyhead, you've been sleeping for ten hours, I was getting worried."He says.
Night doesn't say anything in reply, instead she looks around, she notices a figure outside.
"Who's that, and why are we here?"She asks Mortem.
"I have no idea who that is but I need to tell you somet-"Mortem gets cut short by the gate swinging open.
Jake was standing there, beside him was a beautiful woman.
"Jake, what are you doing?"Whispers Night.
"Silence inferior demon."Jake says rather harshly,he has a tone of regret in his voice.
"You can't tell me to shut up!"Night shouts at Jake.
Jake stomps over to Night standing inches away from her face,Jake unlocks the chain.
"If you even think of running, you're dead."He scowls.
"Thinking about it....."Night spits in his face.
Jake grabs Night's arm and drags her out of the dungeon.
"What should we do about Mortem?"the woman asks.
Jake grins."Feed him to the demon foxes."
"NOOO."Night shouts.
"Don't worry about me Night, I'll be fine."Says Mortem shivering.
Jake drags Night away from Mortem, she pushes against every step.
(Mortem's perspective)
"Hey, be careful with the wings will ya!"Mortem shouts at the guards.
He was being pushed into a pit while being handcuffed, in the bottom of the pit there was a pile of bones, all sorts of animals,demons, even humans.With a thud Mortem lands in the pit.
"Ouch."he mutters.
He hears a metal gate slam shut.He looks around there was a long tunnel with what seemed to be glowing eyes in it.
"Hello." said an echoing voice from the tunnel.
"I didn't realise it was feeding time...."The figure steps out of the tunnel moving closer and closer to Mortem.
It was a magnificent beast, like none Mortem had ever seen before, it had orange fur with purple markings.One of the horns on it's head had cracked and there was a scar on its shoulder.Mortem held his breath as its huge black wings spread from it's body.All of a sudden it started laughing.
"Hahha, I pranked you good didn't I, you really thought I was gonna eat you."The demon fox was cackling so loud that the bones on the ground shook.
Mortem relaxed, it clearly wasn't going to eat him, so what did it want.
"Hi, my name's Mortem, yours?"he tried to seem relaxed and not threatning in any way.
"I'm Tesla, I go by many names, the salt king, uhhh yeah that's pretty much it."Tesla had stopped lauhing but was still grinning uncontrollably.
"What's with all the bones?"Mortem asks.
"I outlived all my other friends, it sounds sad but really it's not that bad, hey look at this."he shouts running over to the tunnel.
A couple minutes later Tesla emerges with a massive egg.
"Is that...?"Mortem asks.
"Yes it is my friend."Says Tesla still grinning.
Tesla had somehow got his hands on a deathreaper egg, a deathreaper is the strongest type of dragon in the known universe, legends say that this beast could move mountains and grows up in a couple of hours, and yet somehow, it was sitting in a pile of bones between the two of them.
Just wanna say thanks to BlueDemon441 (amazing person on ifunny) for letting me use Tesla in my book :3
