Prisoner of the Heart
Chapter 1 and prologue

~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~

/Hurry. Leave while you can/ Meagan thought while she changed. She put on her jeans, sneakers, green long-sleeved shirt, and her elf-like tunic she made for Halloween, and tossed on her favorite brown cape. She didn't know
why she decided to where most of her Halloween costume, but she thought that she would blend in with the forest. Meagan was going to run away. She
hated her life.

The top reasons that Meagan hates her life:

she never knew her parents
the foster home she was in treated her like a slave
she would get beaten
she has no friends
she's always alone

She decided not to pack anything but her dagger, which she tucked away in her belt. That was the only thing she had from her parents. She wanted to
bring her bow and arrows, but her foster parents hid them away.

A few reasons why Meagan might like her life:

she took archery lessons
she took fencing lessons
she took riding lessons

She ran from her room, and started to run full speed out her back door into
the forest.

~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~

Running. That's all she was doing. She didn't know how long, but she still
was. It was starting to grow dark when she reached a clearing. She ran ahead a little further till she reached a new bunch of trees. She put on her hood and walked into the forest, hoping to find a good tree to sleep on. She stopped suddenly when she saw a bunch of arrows pointing at her.
She slowly raised her hands in surrender. "Who are you and what are you doing in the golden wood??" a stranger asked,
"speak!!!" "I am just a ranger. I was looking for a tree to sleep in. I did not know
it was the golden wood" Meagan said putting on her best male voice. The
stranger muttered something and some one tied her hands togher. "Come", the stranger said while pulling on the rope that held her hands,
"the lady of the golden wood will see if your story is true." She was starting to get afraid. A) She still did not completely know where she was, b) she didn't what her captors to know that she was a girl, and c) did not
know what was going to happen to her.
