On a cold winter's night a woman raced down an extravagant hallway, her dark cloak trailing behind her. She was trying desperately to escape before HE got there.
When she reached the last door in the hall she burst threw the door breathing heavily.
Walking further into the room she approached a gilded cradle where twin girls slumbered on peacefully oblivious to the danger that their young lives were in.
Going to the closet the woman withdrew a large traveling bag and began to fill it with clothes, food, and money.
A loud crash downstairs, the sound of a door being blown off its hinges and slamming into the opposite wall. A strangled sob escaped the woman's lips as she picked up a stunning ornate chest made entirely of gold. Opening the chest to make certain that two golden diamond encrusted tiara's were still within.
Confirming that the tiaras were indeed accounted for she closed the chest and stowed it away inside of the already full bag. Rushing over to the cradle tears flowing unchecked down her cheeks as she gathered her daughters wrapping them snuggly in extra blankets to save them from the chill of the night air that was pressing against the glass setting frost upon the windows.
The sound of footsteps clambering the stairs and growls coming from down the hall caused the woman to begin shaking as she tossed her bag over her shoulders. With a moments hesitation the woman pulled on the bookcase and disappeared into a secret passageway leaving not a trace just seconds before the door slammed open and two red eyes surveyed the room searching for the children that had been in that room not a moment before.
Outside the castle the woman stood shushing the crying children in her arms lulling them back to sleep. As she took a step towards the forest she took one more backward glance at the castle that had once been her home knowing that this would be the last time she would get to see it. Holding her daughters even closer she took off into the forest.
She could see it she was almost to the village when she heard an angry growl not far from behind her. Panicking she looked around searching for somewhere to hide. Spotting an old dilapidated well nearby she ran to it and jumped in preparing herself for the jolt of hitting the bottom, only she didn't hit the bottom. She looked up and caught a glimpse of the clear star strewn sky one last time before she was enveloped by a brilliant blue light.
