The Runaway

Prologue

1:24, I woke up. I quietly slipped out of bed, and grabbed my bag. I skidded down the stairs silently. I went into the kitchen and slipped a few loaves of bread, some fruit, two pouches of water, and a few other goodies. Snatching my bow and cloak off a hook (ugh, why does my mother just HAVE to make me keep my bow downstairs? Not fair.), I leaped out the door and onto my horse, Skye, I rode off into the night. I ran away. Looking back, I saw the palace start to light up. "Ugh, Mom's looking for me again" I thought silently.
