Chapter 2

Daring's POV

My heart thudded in my chest. I waited for Raven, on a rock close to the enchanted forest. Until, I looked into her deep purple eyes. She stood in front of me. More beautiful then ever.

"Wow" that's all I could say. She wore a shy smile, as if she was on camera.

"Where are we going?" she asked.

I grabbed her hand and pulled her into the woods, with me. Her black and purple hair, flew in the wind, like a raven. I lead her into a opening in the woods. Where a picnic was laid out. Her smile widened.

"Daring, you didn't have to do this, you know"

"Yes, I do. Now that were "Dating". I would like to get to know you a little."

She picked up a muffin, and bit into it.

"What would you like to know?"

Hours must have past. The sky was bright pink and yellow.

"We better go" I told Raven. Picking up the remaining food, and blanket. I placed it all in a basket, that I had borrowed from Cerise. While Raven waited by a tree. Her hands were pressed against the bark. Her eyes were closed, and her lips were in a small smile.

"Ready?" I asked. Picking up the basket.

Raven's eyes flickered open, reveling that they were a lighter purple.

"Almost"

"What are you doing?"

"Come here, and I will show you." She lifted her hand, and waved it toward her. I set down the basket.

Raven grabbed my hands, and put them on the tree bark.

"Do you feel it?" Ravens voice rang threw the woods.

"Feel what?"

"The heart and soul, of the tree talking to you." Raven replied.

I closed my eyes, concentrating.

"No, I'm sorry, I don't" Opening my eyes, I looked into hers.

"Then we need to work on that. Lets meet back here tomorrow, after lunch."

"Only if I get to teach you something."

"What will that be?"

A wicked smile formed on my lips.

"Sword fighting."

"Your joking!" Raven laughed. "Your not!" A low cry came from her lips.

"Come on. It will be fun."

"Fine. Lets go." She rolled her eyes.

I dipped my head to pick up the basket.

Then, we both walked side by side, back to school.

Apples POV

I watched Raven as she slept. Evil thoughts crept threw my mind. Of poison, death, and sleeping spells.

She has took everything from me, my love, my story, and maybe my happily ever after!

She shall pay for her crimes, but in the right way. I ran to my desk, I pulled out a book of spells to cast. All of them were to good. Raven will pay!
