Chapter Five: Escaping the guards

Their song ended but the trouble came back. The thug that Whiplash told to get the royal guards came back with them. Steven dragged (Y/N) under the bar table to hide. Steven looked over to see them bring in Drax and Rocket. He hid again. Whiplash came out to them and motioned them to follow him. He opened a secret passageway out of the Snuggly Duckling. (Y/N) thanked him and went through the opening with Steven.

The guards had searched everywhere in the tavern but there was no sign of who they were looking for. But one thug tried to hand over Bruce as Steven to buy (Y/N) and Steven time to escape. Levi burst in, still on Steven's track. He looked around before leading them to the secret passageway (Y/N) and Steven went through. All the guards went through leaving one with Drax and Rocket. But Rocket knocked him out and used his spear to let him and Drax go.

Bruce walked out to see Hela who had been watching everything through a broken window. He just flirted with her which she played along with before threatening him with the dagger wanting to know where the passageway went. Meanwhile, Steven and (Y/N) had a chat while making their way out of the tavern.

"Well, I've gotta say. Didn't know you had that in you back there, that was pretty...impressive," Steven said.

"I know!" (Y/N) said excitedly before composing herself, "I know... Sooo, Doctor. Where are you from?"

"Whoa, whoa, sorry Blondie, I don't do back story. However, I am becoming very interested in yours. Now I... I know I'm not supposed to mention the hair."

"Nope."

"Or, the Mother."

"Uh, uh."

"Frankly I'm too scared to ask about the stick."

"Flora colossus."

"Nuance. Here's my question, though, if you want to see the lanterns so badly, why haven't you gone before?"

"Uhh, hey, well..."


(Y/N) was cut off by rumbling. The guards had caught up with them. (Y/N) quickly grabbed her hair and started running with Steven. They made it to an opening with a damn and a little water. Drax and Rocket appeared below them and the guards and Levi appeared behind them. (Y/N) gave Steven her pan before using her hair to swing to another surface. Meanwhile, Steven was left there with the guards and a pan. He used it to fight off the guards easier than he thought he would.

He took a note to get one of his own when he only had Levi left to deal with. They started duel while (Y/N) watched from a distance. Not as soon as they started, Levi won the duel by knocking the pan out of Steven's hands. (Y/N) used her hair to save him and he swung away from Levi and over Drax and Rocket. Steven landed some old pipes. Levi broke a part of the damn for the guards to get across to (Y/N) while he flew over. As Steven still had some of (Y/N)'s hair, they worked together to let her swing away before Levi caught her.

She landed safely and started running from Drax and Rocket. Steven used the pipes he was on to slide down. But what Levi did with the beam for the damn was a big mistake. Because it burst open and started filling the opening with water. (Y/N) and Steven made it to the opening to where they were supposed to go and saving the frying pan, but a rock covered the entrance and started filling up the cave. The cave had no way out.

Steven dove underwater to try and find an exit and (Y/N) tried to make an opening with her pan. Steven came back up for air and tried to do what (Y/N) was doing but he cut his hand on the rocks. He tried going under again and (Y/N) continued hitting the walls with her pan. Steven came back up again telling her it was too dark and he couldn't see anything. (Y/N) tried going under but Steven stopped her.

"Hey, there's no point. It's pitch black down there," Steven told her.

They were both quiet for a moment letting the reality sink in that they would die there.

"This is all my fault. She was right, I never should have done this. I'm so... I'm so sorry, Doctor," (Y/N) said crying a little.

Steven looked at her for a moment, "Steven."

"What?" (Y/N) asked confused.

"My real name is Steven Strange. Someone might as well know."

(Y/N) then told a secret of her own, "I have magic hair that glows when I sing."

"What?"

"I have... magic hair, that glows when I sing!" (Y/N) remembered.

(Y/N) started singing the song just as the water got higher. Her hair started glowing which shocked Steven. Using the light, they found a way out. They swam over and moved the rocks until finally, they were out of the cave and into a river. They got to the surface and caught their breaths. Steven was still shocked.

He kept asking Groot why her hair glowed but (Y/N) revealed to him that it does more than just glow. Groot only smiled at Steven kind of freaking him out. Meanwhile, on another side of the woods, Hela had found her way to the opening where (Y/N) and Steven were supposed to be. But out came Drax and Rocket absolutely soaked. Drax promised that he would kill Steven for this.

"We'll cut him off for the kingdom. Get back the crown, come on," Drax told Rocket.

"Or!" Hela said in a sing-song voice, "perhaps you want to stop acting like wild dogs chasing their tails, and think for a moment," she showed them the satchel.

They took out their weapons, "Oh, please there's no need for that."

She threw the satchel to them. Drax checked that the crown was in there, and it was. They looked at her.

"Well if that's all you desire, then be on your way! I was going to offer you something worth one thousand crowns, would have made you rich beyond belief. And that wasn't even the best part. Oh well, C'est la vie. Enjoy your crown," Hela was about to leave.

"What's the best part?" Drax asked

"It comes with revenge on Doctor Strange," she showed them the wanted poster.

Oh, they won't say no to that.
