Kaimi was torn. One part of her told her to flee to safety, like Maddy was telling her. The other part told her that you simply didn't leave a comrade in the hands of the enemy if you could help it. Then the whispers started up, the voices swirled around her and, even though she couldn't make out any real words, she knew what the right thing to do was.
Kaimi let out the savage roar of an Amazon Princess (which really sounded like a terrified and excited little shriek) and dashed into the thick of things, grabbing the arm that held Maddy captive and biting it. Not a hard bite, but hard enough to startle the woman into letting go. Feeling quite brave and fierce, Kaimi tried to grab Maddy's hand. "C'mon!" She said, preparing to dash.

Startled, Maddy grabbed Kaimi's searching hand and made a run for it. That was so brave of her! If they hadn't been making a run for safety, she'd have thrown an admiring glance at her new friend, but as it was she had to settle for a fierce sense of admiration in her mind.
Behind them, the poor employees made a short dash for the two girls, but really hadn't got much of a chance. Both of the girls' shorter legs and smaller statures came in handy during the run, and they were gone before the museum's people ever knew it.
"Well, s**t," was the only thing heard as they all stood panting, and the woman with the glasses nursed the ugly bite on her arm.
The two girls had made it fairly close to the entrance by the time Maddy deemed that they were safe enough.
"That was so awesome!" she turned to the younger girl and beamed happily, "You were like.. like a real superhero!"

Kaimi beamed in pleasure at the praise. "They told me it was right, to go get you. And anyways, you're the butterfly princess! I couldn't let them get you!" She looked about to make sure that they weren't being pursued. It seemed safe enough for the moment...

Maddy only paused for a quarter of a second to ponder who 'they' were, before deciding that it didn't matter.
As it was, she'd probably have protested the princess comment, but decided that it just wasn't worth it. Besides, it'd be kinda cool to be the butterfly princess, so why complain, really?
But the fairness of it nagged her. Sure, she'd done some stuff too, but in the end it was Kaimi who'd saved the day; so wasn't it kinda unfair that she was the one who got the pretty title, and not the other one?
"Well.." a quick decision was made, and Maddy straightened her back the best she could and tried to look regal, "If I'm the butterfly Princess, I hereby pronounce you Butterfly Champion for your brave deeds."
She nodded solemnly, still trying her best to look princess-like.

Kaimi, who liked titles very much, didn't really understand what "Champion" was. But the voices, those ever-present whispering voices she heard, rumbled with contentment inside her head. Even without their approval, she would have been happy.
Beaming, Kaimi looked around. "What now?" She asked, before frowning. Someone... ah bother. Naomi was calling her name. "Thats mom calling..." She sighed.

"We could.." Maddy got started, before they heard the voice of Naomi, "Oh, I guess your mom's worried." Come to think of it, her's would be too. Perhaps it was best if they went back and placated them.
"I'll have to go find mine, too. She's probably worried by now," she threw a quick smile at her newfound Champion, "But maybe we'll meet again!"
That'd be fun; this'd definitely been an adventure, and much more interesting than watching TV.

Kaimi nodded enthusiastically. "Yes!" She said in agreement, beaming. "We should play again!" Impulsively, she wrapped her arms around Maddy for a quick hug. "I had lots of fun with you!"

Giggling slight, she hugged the younger girl back for a moment before letting go. They had had a lot of fun, hadn't they?
"You better get going, or your mom'll end up losing her voice," she raised a small hand in a wave, "We'll see each other around, definitely!"

Kaimi giggled at the thought of Naomi trying to call out to her with no voice. Waving back at Maddy, she headed towards her guardian, happy to have made such an adventurous new friend.
