My Dream

Jailbreak

He releases (Y/N)'s hand as she sprints after him, looking over her shoulder at the large amount of guards chasing them. She yells in alarm, struggling to loop her dagger sheathe around her thigh as she runs but managing as she sheathes her dagger away safely. Atilla and (Y/N) run past Ulf, who raises a hand at the guards and stops them in their tracks.

They watch Ulf with apprehension and confusion, Ulf pretending he was trapped behind an invisible wall as he feels around. The guards continue to watch him in confusion, Ulf turning and looking down the hall to the right as he holds a hand over his eyes.

The guards follow his gaze, Vlad bellowing as he charges at them. They all scream in high pitched voices with terror, dropping their swords as Vlad decks them with ease. Their helmets all clatter to the ground, Ulf pressing his hands to his cheek dramatically in mock shock.

...

Atilla leads (Y/N) out into the courtyard, Muriel running in behind them. (Y/N) skids to a stop, looking around with wide eyes as hundreds of soldiers yell while racing towards them from the upper levels.

"What now?!" (Y/N) asks urgently, turning to Muriel.

Muriel grabs her shoulders, setting her down next to him.

"Head down."

(Y/N)'s brows furrow, but she obliges. "Head down!"

"Arms in!" he instructs firmly.

"Arms in," she nods, tucking her arms close.

"Knees apart."

(Y/N) listens, lowering a bit as she parts her knees.

"Knees-- what?" (Y/N) questions, frowning with confusion as she looks to Muriel. "Oh. I get it."

...

Vlad grunts loudly, jumping off the wall above.

...

"You're messing with me, right? Ha! Very--"

(Y/N), who was unknowingly standing on a cart, looks up when she notices a shadow. Vlad lands on the end of the cart, sending her flying up.

"Funny!" (Y/N) lets out a scream as she goes flying through the air.

Muriel and Vlad grin widely as they watch with Atilla, the guards all watching in shock.

...

(Y/N) continues to scream as she spins through the air, squeezing her eyes shut and bracing herself as she lands on something.

Her eye slowly peeks open as she exhales a sigh of relief, a soft nicker making her look down.

Maximus, whose saddle she was sitting on, peers back at her, smiling with a tilted head.

"Maximus?" (Y/N) says in surprise, blinking rapidly as she slowly lowers her arms and grabs the reigns. "Wait. Did you... Did you really bring them here to save me?"

Maximus snorts softly, nodding his head with a smug smile.

(Y/N) stares at him for a moment, completely moved by his actions.

"Thank you," she says with awe.

Maximus' ears flick as he snorts dismissively.

"I mean it. Thank you," (Y/N) looks ahead, taking a deep breath and exhaling through her mouth. "Now..." she looks around at the castle wall, "How to get down?"

The door behind them slams open, guards with crossbows taking aim at (Y/N). Maximus neighs as he takes off in a run, moving side to side to avoid the arrows. (Y/N)'s eyes notice movement, her face falling at the sight of guards yelling and charging on the other side of the castle wall.

"Uh-- Max?" (Y/N) anxiously says, holding tightly on the reigns as he continues to charge towards the end of the wall.

Maximus ignores her, snorting as he runs even faster.

"Max!"

The guards all scramble to avoid the horse, Maximus whinnying as he leaps off the castle wall.

"Max!!" (Y/N) yells in alarm, screaming as they fly through the air.

Maximus lands on the slanted rooftop of the horse with a determined expression, sliding down a bit before leaping off. A little girl gasps in awe as she watches, Maximus landing on the cobblestone of the town square and startling a few people as he runs past them.

"Is that (Y/N)?"

"(Y/N)!"

"(Y/N)?!"

A few voices call out to her with relief and joy, (Y/N) feeling herself smile before her expression hardens.

"All right, Max!" (Y/N) lifts herself up a bit in a crouch, grasping the reigns in one hand as she pats the side of Maximus' neck. "Let's go save the Prince of Corona!"

Maximus lets out a mighty whinny, his strides long and powerful as he races through the town and across the bridge of Corona. He doesn't tire as he races through the woods, the wind sweeping through his mane and (Y/N)'s hair as he runs.

...

Maximus leaps over the same fallen tree he had leapt over when pursuing (Y/N), his pace never slowing as he runs down the slanted hill leading down where they had fallen.

...

Maximus runs through the tunnel, (Y/N) sliding off him and staggering as she catches herself while racing up to the base of the tower. The sky above was darkened by clouds, casting an ominous shadow on the clearing.

"Faunus?!" (Y/N) yells up to the window, cupping her mouth to project her voice.

She receives no response.

"Sunshine! Come, on Faunus!" (Y/N)'s voice becomes more panicked. "Let down your hair! Please!"

(Y/N)'s teeth clench together anxiously before she exhales sharply, grabbing onto the vines of the tower and bracing herself for the climb. The sound of the windows above opening make her pause and look up, Faunus' bright golden hair tossed out a moment later.

She laughs in relief as she grabs onto the end, smiling as she climbs up Faunus' hair.
