"What the-" Robert felt Angelica get off his shoulders. He turned around to see a blond man with glasses. "D***, look, give her back. We only need her, we won't hurt you." Robert told. He wasn't sure why John only wanted her, but hey. John was superior to him when it came to experiments, so he respected him and obeyed him.
"Why only me?" Angelica asked, as she clinged to Alfred.
"Because John wanted something from you. I honestly don't know." The man said. "I don't even want to be one of them, d***, but I have to." He sighed.
"Go with me and I won't hurt your friends." Robert spoke as he motioned for Angelica to come. She only looked at him and then at Alfred, not knowing what to do. She believed in Robert's words, he seemed like a honest man.

Alfred glared coldly at the man, though he still wished Arthur was here to come up with some witty comeback.
"No." he growled, pushing Angel over towards Jack.
"She's our friend and you're not taking her or any of us back there." Alfred spat coldly, smiling kn the inside about how good he was
Doing.

"Alfred, If he's going to hurt you, then I better go..." Angelica whispered meekly, feeling herself blush.
Robert let out a sigh. "Look, if she doesn't come with me, I'll have to take her to John by force." He said, feeling strange speaking about a person like some sort of an object. But he had no choice. He had to show her to John.
Angelica looked over at the people around her "I... I'll go with you, only if you and John don't hurt my friends. If nobody hurts my friends ." She whispered as she looked at Robert. A part of her wanted to see John, to see what kind of person he really is. Is he really that horrible and insane, or is he a genuinely nice person inside...?
"We won't hurt them, let's go now." Robert sighed. He wished he wasn't a part of this.

She almost screamed when Alfred came out of know were because she thought it may be a scientist. When they caught up to Jack, Angelica was hanging over the man’s shoulder. When Angelica started saying that they could take her Brooklyn yelled, "No Angelica! You can't give yourself up like that! We aren't leaving you no matter what the coast." Brooklyn said watching Angelica. "We're all staying together till the end even if we die protecting each other. But you can't just give yourself up like that!" Brooklyn yelled almost screaming at her. She started to grab her hand to pull Angelica away from Robert.

"Angie! No! You can't go back!" Alfred whined, grabbing her arm. He looked super sad in his twinkling blue eyes, he couldn't leave her with them. What would Arthur think? Would he still see him as the hero?
"Brooke's right. We may disagree or...attack eah other but were in this together and they can't take you." he growled firmly.

Once I was blacked out there wasn't much I was aware of, all external sounds were muted, but I could hear my feint heart beat. At times the beat would flutter and drop and then it felt as if a huge rock was crushing me. Everything was so dark but I faught the huge mass, whatever it was. Then i'd feel my heart flutter back to life and the mass would lessen. I'd find out latter that the periods of heavy mass would be my death. I heard my breathing, when the mass was away, the calm, in out, in out, soothed me. But then my heart fluttered weakly and stopped. My breath came short, everything went cold agian. I pressed agianst the mass, in an effort not to be crushed. My thoughts were scattered, some were of me, an external veiw of what I must look like right now, others of foggy memories. But only the good memories caught my attention, the bad memories made the mass grow. I focused on good memories until I heard my breathing agian, the thump of my heart had returned.

"But Brooklyn, I don't want any of you to get hurt," She looked at her friend, after being pulled away from Robert, then turned to Alfred who also agreed with Brooklyn.
Angelica only lowered her head. She began thinking. She looked at Robert, then at her friends. "If he tries to fight us, he will definitely be able to at least stand his ground." She thought.

Robert sighed. This drama, this sacrificing... It reminded him of the relationship he and his family had. He had to sacrifice himself to get money so many times... He eventually ended up here, leaving his family behind. His daughters, Sarah, Lacey and Sadie...He missed them much.
Robert decided to stop playing around. He grabbed the girl's arm and pulled her to him, pulling her out of her friends' grip. Strangely, Angelica actually fought back, but Robert didn't feel much pain due to her being small and fragile and him being big and tall.
"Don't try to help her, or you'll have to fight with me. Trust me, you don't want to fight with me." Robert warned the rest of the group as he began walking away from them. Angelica decided to follow, but was hesitant and seemed to fight a little, but not with all her strength.

Alfred scoffed coldly, he was a good six inches taller than Robert. He smirked, trying bring back all the moves Arthur had done to fight.
"God da**it! Give, her, BACK!" he barked, punching Robert square in the nose with all the force he had.

Robert saw a fist getting nearer and nearer to his face, until it struck him with full force. "D***!" He swore, stepping back and grabbing his nose, which began to bleed. He saw Angelica run back to her friends, Jack and Brooklyn. Robert wiped off the blood and immediately swung his fist into the blond man's jaw. "Stupid teenagers, I don't want to fight!" He yelled a second after he hit him. "Just give me the d*** girl!"

"D**n Alfred what are you doing here?!" Jack shouted as he saw Alfred appear, but there was no time for talking. As Angelica ran to him, he hugged her tightly, and then looked into the sky. C'mon, horse form, c'mon, c'mon!" he thought, really wishing to have his form now, but he couldn't wait. They all couldn't wait. A huge frown appeared in Jack's face, then he sped up, and ran into Robert, jumping on him. "Don't touch her!" he shouted. They both flew into the lake.

Robert saw Jack run into him and soon the only thing he felt was cold. They both fell in the lake, and it was so cold. He shivered and began swimming towards the land. He crawled out of the river, wet and cold and stood back up. "What is John waiting for? Who is going to help me?" He thought as he looked around, this time ready to dodge if somebody tries to attack him again.

"There's no way you're going to take her!" Jack shouted as he grabbed Robert's leg and started pulling him back to the cold water. He felt his horse form slowly coming back,but he ignored it now.

Robert felt Jack try to pull him back into the water. Robert grabbed a nearby tree and stomped on his fingers with his feet. "Go away!" He spoke to the man, who he saw was slowly changing into a horse. Out of sudden, Robert heard a strange sound, only to see... A snowmobile? And there was Tom along with an acquaintance of his, David. "How did you get there so fast?" Robert asked Tom, even though he realized it probably was because of the snowmobile. But who's sled was it, anyway? Did David offered to help?
David, who was driving the sled, he stood up from it, Tom following him. "We're here to help you, John and Oscar said they'll do well enough alone." He said, remembering what happened.



"David? It's you?" Tom spoke. John watched him. He knew what to say. "Could you get in the forest, yes near the river. A little to the right though. Why am I here?" Tom spoke to the man, and looked at John for a little while, giving him a confused look. After John muttered something, Tom spoke again. "Look, I just need you and a means of transport. You're not busy, so why don't you come? Really. Thanks. We'll meet." He put his phone in the pocket and then turned to Oscar and John. Oscar was confused and mildly irritated because he hated being confused. John just made a small smirk.
"You guys don't need any help?"Tom asked the two, but John shook his head. "I believe we'll do fine enough alone. It's not like they can escape with the bird-girl being injured. That British guy, however, may pose a problem." He shrugged.



"D***, Tom, I'm pretty sure John would not be happy knowing you blurted out they're here." Robert told the man. His nose still felt sore from Alfred's hit.
"Whatever, we'll get them anyway." David spoke. He was an arrogant man.
Robert sighed. He looked at Angelica, and then at the rest of them. "Maybe we'll have a chance to get more than just her? David's pretty strong. Tom, I'm not sure. Never seen him fight." He thought.


John had crossed the river along with Oscar, but they still didn't do anything. John didn't even knew what to do now. He planned along up to this point, but he didn't exactly plan for this to happen, so he was pretty confused. Oscar was very irritated, though. He didn't like waiting.

When Alfred punched Robert in the nose Angelica fell over to us. "You okay?" Brook asked. She watched Jack go after Robert too with Alfred by his side. Brooklyn looked at Angelica with a frown, "How come they want you so badly? Weird if you think about it. Maybe you’re special or something," Brooklyn said. Soon a loud noise came through the bushes and out came a snowmobile with two people in it. "Crap... I think we should go get the others, and get you out of here," Brooklyn said pulling Angelica's hand hoping she would follow.
