Chapter 1
Courtney took off running back to her Uncle Aloysius mansion after she heard that they ruled Skarrow guilty, it takes fifteen minutes to get to the Crumrin house but she made it there is five minutes. She raced to the room Skarrow was in, she busted through the door.
"You've got to go. NOW!" Courtney said quickly.
She took him to the woods telling him to run home. She could see a shadow of whom she hoped was the Duchess waiting for skarrow. He started to head for the entrance and the out starched hand of the dreadful Duchess. Just as he was reaching her, Courtney heard a noise behind her. She saw the bow and arrow ready to shoot, as the man released the arrow Courtney ran to get Skarrow out of the way. A loud scream was heard throughout the forest. Hector looked horrified at what he had done; Courtney laid on the ground with an arrow through her back a bloody pool slowly forming around her. Skarrow slowly went over to her and touched her face lightly; he picked her up slowly and continued to goblin city with his 'Mother' the Duchess. Hector shook out of his shocked state and yelled after them.
"Stop! Bring her back, STOP!" he yelled but they where gone, he quickly raced to Aloysius there he busted through the door that Aloysius and Woodrue where in, they looked at him as he tried to catch his breathe and babble about what just happened.
"Hector calm down, and tell us what happened." Woodrue said. Hector quickly explained to them what had just happened causing Aloysius to be furious.
"YOU DID WHAT?! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE YOU FOOL! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW WOODRUE? YOU GOT YOUR BLOOD, THE BLOOD OF AN INNOCENT LITTLE GIRL!" he yelled at them, he began to grab some items and a few bags.
"I am truly sorry Aloysius, if we can help—"Woodrue was saying when Aloysius snapped at them to get out.
Once they left he sat in his chair and let a few tears fall. 'Be alright little one, please be alright.' He pleaded in his thoughts.
He went and told Courtney's parents that she would be going with him and her teacher for a few days on a study field trip. They bought the lie he told and he went to finish getting ready, he also called Ms. Crisp. She told him to come over as soon as he could. He was there within the hour; he told her everything that has happened.
Quick Ms. Crisp's white cat had heard everything and went to let Boo and Tobermory know. While the humans talked the cats also talked, they ran into Butterworm and Butterbug in front of the entrance where Courtney's blood lay on the ground.
"So it is true she has been injured." Boo said sniffing the ground.
"Knew the lass would be caught. What we gonna do bout it?" Butterworm asked the cats.
"You'll stay here and help Aloysius and Ms. Crisp, the rest of us will go looking for Courtney in the goblin city." Tobermory said as he and the others headed for the entrance.
They walked around for a while as Butterbug asked about the girl. Some goblins say that no girl has come by and a couple said they saw the duchess with what looked to be her 'son' and a human. The only lead they have is the duchess, which didn't look too good. An hour after the cats and Butterbug went down to the goblin city did Aloysius and Ms. Crisp show up where Butterworm was waiting.
"Ye must be the little brats Uncle and tech. O' Butterworm here ta help look for the lass." He said as the three of them enter heading down to the goblin city.
