Oh crap! I didn't realise anyone had replied! Since I don't post two chapters straight after each other I gave up on the story. Now I can continue! Hooray!
CG, I'm very sorry for the lack of description. I've kind of always been a comedy writer and this is the most serious thing I have ever written so I'm not too huge in that department but I think the more I do it I will get better.
That's right you little strawberry hotcakes! It's the sixth chapter of Dan Express! Party down!
Or read the story, whatever...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Dan landed on a small hill. He looked around. He saw the sun was nearly fully visible above a large village below him. He took a step to the left and Sam’s feet hit the ground where Dan had just been. Sam took off walking down the path, Dan jogged to catch up.
"This is Trust, Abe’s current whereabouts. He has to move all the time so the Industrialists do not capture him… or worse."
They reached the gate. There were two Mudokons with large clubs over their shoulders standing guard outside. As the Dan and Sam approached the Muds walked to the center of the gate.
"Halt, who goes there?" one questioned.
Sam responded. "I am Sam, protector of the village Shanreel and this is Dan. We were sent by Elder Edward."
The guards scanned the area for any danger, and then the one that hadn’t spoken turned and yelled a command.
The gates started creaking and began to open inwards.
The duo walked through and they began to close behind them.
"Wow," exclaimed Dan upon looking around the village. "And it’s so nice of them to give us directions," he said sarcastically.
"Fine, where do you want to go?" asked a Mudarcher standing on a platform attached to the wall.
"How the he-"
"Enhanced hearing. Another change that takes place in the transformation," explained Sam.
"We are trying to find our way to the elder’s hut."
"Well go straight down this main road. And turn left at Alf’s Rehab and Tea. You can’t miss it."
"Thank you."
Dan and Sam began walking.
"Why didn’t you ask where Abe was? Why are we going to the elder?" Dan asked.
"They wouldn’t have known, well they would have informed us they didn’t. That’s the way it is. One day it will be different."
They reached the Rehab and Tea and went down the road opposite it.
Just ahead of them was a large building with more guards outside it. The directional Mud was right, they couldn’t miss it.
Sam walked up to one of the guards and talked with him. The guard nodded and Sam beckoned to his companion.
They entered the door. It was a big with three doors going of on each side. Torches attached to pillars lit up the room. There were also feint glows coming from several Muds around the room meditating.
There was one at the back of the room, up a few steps. Dan and Sam stopped before the bottom step.
"Welcome, my young friends," the Mudokon said.
"We come from Shan-"
"I already know. Edward sent a messenger last night."
There was a small group of Muds that had escaped from The Enslavement. And when Abe started rescuing his brothers, those that had been free all along took a group of Muds each and colonized villages and they became the elders.
"Abe had no missions planned for today and he had left for the Rehab not long before you arrived," said the elder.
"Thank you," said Sam and he turned and left.
"Ah, yeah, thanks," Dan followed after him.
