text: Sir Johnathan rushed through his chambers door slamming it behind him. Blood rushing down his arm he slams a shelf down across the door. You can hear loud footsteps slamming on the ground, Johnathan continues to fortify the door with another shelf as the steps pass by the door. He throws his helmet to the ground and grabs a bandage from his medical cabinet. As he is treating his would he hears the voice of his wise adviser George "Johnathan what is going on? Is the castle under attack". Johnathan still in great pain from his wound replies "The beast has returned, I wasn't able to escape safely this time. It was too fast and viscous". "Perhaps we should wait, the guards should be here any second to banish the beast again" George says while Johnathan is sitting with his back against the shelves. Screams can be heard from inside the castle walls. The beast shakes the floor with every step it takes. Johnathan begins to stand up "I'm not sure how much time we can wait. The others are not safe right now and they are no match for the beast". A loud slam is heard followed by an ear piercing shriek. Johnathan puts his ear to the door but can only hear sobbing. Then he hears it again, the beast grunting as he walks down the hallway. The steps get louder as he approaches the door. Johnathan can hear the beasts deep breaths right outside his door. He backs up towards George and grabs his helmet once again. BOOM, the door shakes as the beast grunts louder. BOOM, books fly off of the shelf onto the floor. Johnathan knows this will not hold. He puts his helmet on and prepares his sword. BOOM one shelf falls smashing to the floor. Dust falls from the roof as the beast continues his assault. BOOM, you can hear the door cracking as the beast becomes more angry. A loud scream echoes within the castle, the beast jolts away from Johnathan's chambers down the hallway. Johnathan hugs George and thanks him for being the best adviser a knight could ask for. He pushes the shelves out of the way of the door. The broken door creaks open to a dark hallway. In the distance he can hear the beast roar as it continues its rampage. Johnathan makes his way down the hallway with his sword at the ready. The beast is getting louder and louder as he nears the castle staircase. A loud slam can be heard on the castles gate. The guards must have arrived. Johnathan rushes to the stairs trying to see his way through the dark castle. The walls are torn open, the doors to other chambers all shattered. As he nears the stairs he can see a path of blood down the stairs. As he descends the stairs it is pure silence. He reaches the bottom of the stairs to see the Queen sitting crying. He asks if the beast is gone. The queen wraps her arm around Johnathan and says " Don't worry Johnny he is gone". As Johnathan looks out the gate he can see flashing red and blue lights. The Queen wipes tears off of Johnathan's face and says "This time the he wont be coming back". Johnathan sits on the steps and he can see the beast. Sitting in the back of the guards wagon he finally feels the castle is safe again. The guards drive off and Alexandra says to Johnathan "Go grab a pillow and your bear we're going to be staying the night with my sister." The brave knight walks to his room to pack his bag. He picks up George and carries him down the stairs. As he walks through the rubble and broken house his mother grabs his hand and walks him to the door to freedom as the beast has finally been slayed inside his own castle.
