Baron Fitztightly peered up at the dummy guards. Luckily it was now early evening and the light was fading.

“Hmm,” he said doubtfully. “They don’t look like they’re doing much patrolling to me, Sir Percy.”

“Oh, and I have a highly trained guard dog,” said Sir Percy, who was obviously keen for the baron to stop staring at the battlements. “It lives in that kennel at the end of the drawbridge. Savage beast. Very rare breed, you know.”

“The kennel appears to be empty, Sir Percy.”

Yikes! In the panic to go and change into our guards’ outfits, I’d forgotten to tie Hercules up. We’d just left him dozing in the kennel. But where was he now?

It didn’t take long to find out.

There was a shriek from inside the castle. Then the kitchen door flew open and Hercules came hurtling out with a plucked starling in his mouth and a furious Margaret in hot pursuit.

“Come back ’ere, you mangy mutt!”

With a yelp of terror, Sir Percy dived behind the baron for safety as Hercules bounded towards us. I ran forward and managed to grab his lead – which wasn’t easy with a heavy battleaxe in one hand and a wobbly helmet falling over my eyes.
