hand and said, “We can’t thank you enough. After all of this is done, us sea creatures can finally live in peace.”
                  Olivia stepped forward and asked, “Are you two a thing?” while pointing at Murphy and the Nix.
                  “No, but we would of loved to the chance,” Alistabella answered.
                  “Now we can,” Murphy said, kissing her hand.
                  They then returned back to the water, laughing and giggling. I felt happy for them. Although, I am not quite sure how they would do anything , but I guess that type of thing don’t matter if you are truly in love.
                 

Chapter Sixteen
     
    I turned to face the trees on the land. The ground was soft, and the grass was lush. I wasn’t for sure which way to go, then my grandpa started ahead of us. I watched as the others followed him without question. I trailed behind Mason.
                  From a distance, I could hear the cries and whimpers coming from the creatures of the land. I caught up to the side of Mason, and looked at him. I was trying to seem sad, and he just looked back at me.
                  I asked him, “Do you not hear those poor things?”
                  “Huh?” he said.
                  I looked at his ears, and remembered he had ear plugs in. I just shook my head and said, “Nothing.”
                  He scrunched his eyebrows and just shrugged his shoulders.
                  We must have been getting closer, because the sounds had gotten louder. We walked around a curve, and seen rows of cages lined up beside each other. The panel that releases one at a time was just placed in the opening. Over its square panel, was a clear box, locked up.
                  The cages were welded shut. I looked at Jack and asked him, “Why is there a control panel locked up, yet the cages are just welded shut?”
                  “Too many creatures found a way out. So now they can never escaped,” he answered slowly.
                  “What do we do now?” Olivia asked.
                  “Shh!” Jack commanded.
                  I looked around, and didn’t see anything.
                  Jack said, “Land patrol is heavy right now. I can hear their footsteps nearby.”
                  “How do we free the creatures?” I asked.
                  Jack took his bag off of his shoulders, and said, “Everyone check your bag for anything that might help.”
                  We all placed our bags down on the ground. I began searching mine frantically, along with everyone else. The only things I seen in my bag, was a rope, a light, a blanket, and a thermos.
                  I looked at Olivia and Mason, and they too had the same contents as me. I looked at Jack and seen he had more than us. He had a knife, a first aid kit, a flare gun, and then I watched him pull out three sticks of dynamite.
                  “Alright! Now we are talking,” Mason grinned.
                  Jack smiled too, but then said, “I only have enough for three cages.”
                  We decided to use it on the three biggest cages.
                  The first cage contained a three headed, four winged, horse that was as white as snow. The second cage contained a twenty foot cobra, which was silver in color and had six eyes. The last cage contained a man that stood even taller than the cobra.
                  We went up to the giant, and seen him sitting quietly in the corner of his cage. I walked closer and could hear him sigh into the empty air. I said, “Hello.”
                  He turned in shock, and acted like he was scared. He screamed, “No more! I don’t like to be poked! No more hot
