"This is..." The prince said with alarm then grabbed Victor. "Where's Hector. What happened to him?"
"He's telling the truth." the general said. "Good. I already sent a telegram to the King of Hannon. Deliver Hector to him for me. Don't worry about him escaping. He's no more dangerous then a sack of potatoes in that state." the general said.

Cedric nodded "Yes sir" he said. The soldiers led him into the room where Hector was locked up "thank you, I'll take it from here." he said to the two. They bothed walked away leaving Cedric and Hector. The second the door closed Cedric ran up to Hector, He untied him and held him up "Hector get up, we have to get out of here." he said trying to keep his voice down so nobody overheard.

Hector hung limply, smelling of the strong drug used to knock her out.

"He's been captured by the traitorous officer and the unit has seized the entire ship and occupants. It seems that they're working for the enemy. That's all I can speculate. It's probably because commander Thunderbird is so well known. Maybe they think they can get a ransom for him, or hope that without him the war will be easier. Please let go of me" Victor said to the prince.

"damnit..." he said seeing that shaking him awake wasn't going to work, there was only one thing left he could do. He grabbed the rope and tied Hector's arms and legs again making sure the ropes weren't too tight. He picked him up in his arms, Hector was very light so carrying him would be easy. He stepped out of the room.

The prince let Victor go and began to pace back and forth, cursing and swearing. "Which country did it? Was it Norra or Hannon? Either way, I'm going to personally slaughter whoever did this!"

The soldiers said nothing as Cedric carried him out of the room. The general walked up to Cedric. "Do you need a personal vessel to make it back to Hannon, or do you have a way back?" The general asked.

Cedric was feeling relieved when nobody came up to question him. When the general came up to Cedric he tensed up a bit but stayed calm "actually yes, I had trouble with my ship While getting here"

"Alright. Take him to the capital as fast as you can. The king will be expecting you." the general told him, leading him to a small but nice personal vessel similar to the escape ship Victor used but slightly bigger.

"yes sir" he said and stepped into the vessel. He set Hector down and turned back to the general "you'll be hearing from the king soon" he said trying to keep his act. The vessel separated from the main ship giving the all clear. Cedric went back to Hector and took the ropes off his arms and legs. He tapped him on the cheek lightly "come on Hector" he said "snap out it"

Again, Hector didn't move. She only breathed lightly and showed no signs of waking up soon.

"I'm not sure, sir. Commander Thunderbird went to speak with the general himself, so I'm not sure what they said. All I know is that the ship was captured by Ander soldiers that are working for the enemy" Victor said. He then gave the location of where the ship was being held.

"We have to act fast." the prince said. He quickly started giving orders to servants to call together the imperial troops. In no less then ten minutes, an alarm was sounding from the castle and soldiers were rushing to their stations under the prince's command.

The ship was completely silent, Cedric looked out the window and noticed that the ship was heading away from Ander, he wasn't sure of what to do. He was still considered a Hannon spy and after all that had happened heading into Anders Capitol would be a death sentence. Hannon wasn't a better option. He went up and took the wheel, steering the ship back into Ander territory. He had to get Hector somewhere safe, his safety didn't matter now.

"What is he doing?" The general asked. "It looks like he's turning around."
