One day the princess decided to take a trip to another palace

a few of miles across the sands, so with her and Flynn on

 Pericho's  back they set off on the journey, accompanied

by her soldiers.  Suddenly from out of nowhere a horde of

bandits riding on chariots attacked the party and killed the 

guards, and then captured our two friends, leading Pericho 

into the hills and their secret cave hideout. 

Once inside, the door clunked shut and when

 they grew used to the light saw other

 captives locked in baskets, hanging from 

the walls. Flynn and the Princess were

 dragged down and thrown before the chief.

''Haa Princess Paula, at last I've got you!''

he shouted in triumph. ''Take her to my room'' 

 Pericho seeing her being manhandled bellowed out and 

run riot around the cave, scattering the men in all directions

then picked up the two with his trunk and entered one of the

 tunnels at the end of the cave traveling along until out of danger.
