Robert sat alone in his room of solitude. “Sam? Are you there?” he called out. His words were met with an eerie silence. Soon Drayvon re-entered the room.

“Have you given my offer some thought?” Drayvon asked.

“I don’t know.”

“What do you mean you don’t know? I thought you wanted to keep your family safe?”

“I do. It’s just...”

“Just what?”

“I’m not sure if you are able to get me home and keep my family from harm. Or if you will just put them in more danger. This doesn’t sound like a fair offer or even one you can pull off.”

“I know you’re not strong enough by yourself. No one will be safe. I give you this choice. You need to choose: are you part of this war or not? If you choose to stay here and not go home, you will be forced to choose a side. Who’ll you follow? Your time to decide is running out.” Drayvon left the room again.

“I just don’t know who to trust. What am I even doing here?” Robert asked as his thoughts wandered back to Sam. I hope she’s ok. He was suddenly startled out of his thoughts with an ear-piercing scream. “Wait. Sam. What’re they doin’ to you?” Panic filled Robert’s heart and mind. He frantically tried to loosen his bonds as he crashed his chair on its side. At this very moment the only thing that mattered to Robert was protecting Sam. He violently kicked his feet snapping the chair legs in two. With his feet free, he leaped up and slammed his shoulder into the wall, breaking the chair back and arms. Soon, his hands were free as three Shadow Knights dashed through the door to investigate the noise. Robert wasted no time and reached for one of the broken chair legs and swung it at the first knight, knocking him to the floor. He spun and slammed the chair leg into the second knight’s knee, causing him to collapse on the floor screaming in pain. The third knight rushed Robert and kicked him in the side. Robert teetered and spat blood. The knight spun to punch Robert, but Robert caught the knight’s fist in his hand. Robert stood and shoved the knight backward. The third knight stumbled and hit his head on the wall, falling to the floor. Robert ran out of the room and down the corridor. I need to find Sam.

Suddenly, five knights rushed toward him from around the corner, and Robert stumbled backward. He swung the chair leg toward the nearest knight but missed. The knight grabbed his arm and forced the chair leg from his grip. Two knights secured him in a kneeling position. The first knight took the chair leg and swung it across Robert's forehead. Robert fell to the floor with a thud. “Take him back to his room. Lord Lucas and Master Drayvon have more questions.” The first knight ordered the other two knights, who had originally secured him, to drag Robert back to his room.
