Prologue:
"I don't know about this Lizzy"
"Come on, it will be fun!" Lizzy said reluctantly.
Jane hesitated as she exhaled a large breath "Okay..."
The night, or was it early morning now, was cold and damp. Lights could be see not too far off and their shimmering illuminated a large stone wall that stood at the end of a grey field filled of tall grass.
"There they are," Lizzy whispered.
A few large men stood near by guarding the entrance and exit as Jane and Lizzy slowly stalked up on them through the tall grey grass. Jane was well equipped with sturdy long pants and a long sleeved shirt and combat boots. Lizzy, however, wore a t-shirt, old tennis shoes and jeans. Her skin was tough and tan but craved to be itched, but Lizzy dared not move more than necessary so she pushed all thoughts of the scratches aside.
"Do you have it?" Jane asked
"Yeah" said Lizzy taking out a small stone.
She lowered her arm behind her and prepared to throw it as far away as she could while still being sure that the guards would hear any sound that it made. Before Lizzy could throw however Jane snorted unexpectedly trying not to laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Lizzy exclaimed quietly.
"You think a rock will get their attention?" Jane suppressed a laugh once more before tearing her eyes away from the men to look at her sister in the eyes. Lizzy's eyes had always been different. At first glance they were a dismissive, regular, ordinary brown. However, the more you looked at her eyes the more enchanting they became. At the moment they were large with anticipation but they glittered with intensity. Jane was always astounded at the emotion displayed in them.
"No!" Lizzy said defensively. "I'm not that stupid."
Then she once again carefully lowered her arm and eyed her target. Jane gasped as she realized what Lizzy had planned. The rock flew from Lizzy's hand released from her excellent aim as Jane watched carefully. A split second later a large BOOM! was heard. All three of the men standing guard looked immediately at the origin of the sound as two of them ran toward and area of grass that was now smoking profusely.
"No!" Jane groaned in a whisper as she panted from running crouched over and low to the ground. She had noticed one of the men had stayed at the gate. Now how are we going to get in? She thought to herself.
"Jane," Lizzy interrupted.
Jane was breathing heavily even though they had already stopped. "What now?" Cried Jane as she started to panick. The sun was coming up and if they didn't get through the wall now, they would have to spend at least another week on their own.
"Jane." Lizzy said again.
"Oh no, oh no, oh no!" Jane started to become hysterical at the thought of being caught.
"Jane!" Lizzy hissed between her teeth in agitation.
"What?!" Jane wailed back.
"It's okay," Lizzy started a little slower trying to calm her sister down, "we've done this before remember?"
"Yeah but it was always close!"
"It will be close again, but we can do it."
"Okay," Jane agreed and took a deep breath.
They swiftly but silently now crept up to the side of where the last guard was stationed. He was leaned against the wall, his body relaxed but his mind was still alert. Lizzy slowly rose from behind him a few feet away and stood in a sturdy position. She winced at what she was about to do and then before she could stop herself swung her trained muscular leg around to knock him out cold. He felt to the mud-covered, freezing floor in a lump.
"Let's go," Lizzy gestured to the still crouching Jane and they crept around before the other two could notice.
