Thanx everybody for reviewing. And ally4054, yeah I saw that mistake but I changed it. And MeWhoThinksEverythingIsWOW yes I used your idea, and again ally4054 yes there might be a lot happening in one chapter but I personally hate that when people update there's not much happening or that there is something happening but the chapter it only 200 words long. So if it will take weeks for every update there is going to be a lot happening.
Chapter 7
Cassandra
I didn't sleep well the night that came I lay there twisting and turning thinking of Will. And Horace of course. They were both so cute, but I knew Horace would fall in love with Cassandra and Will with Alyss, unless I could stay here forever, I liked it here more than I had liked it at home. I wanted to stay, to be together with my little sweet Will, I finally fell asleep that night only to be woken up sometime later, it felt like twenty second but I knew it was some hours.
"Sam, it's the fifth hour. We need to get ready." Alyss said and I groaned. I heard her laugh. I stood up and started packing all my clothes, we would stay there for a while and we needed to look right, I only needed a small bag for my clothes and possessions, it was smaller than the average schoolbag. I left my weapons since we would be protected, or I had this special thing under my dress on my leg where I had my saxe knife. Alyss had it too. We walked down with our bags after having hugged Jenny goodbye, she was awake since she would have to start on the breakfast in an hour.
Since we would leave before breakfast, Jenny had gotten us something to eat. It was quite simple some bread and some water. It was what you would get in prison.
As we walked out Alyss told me a story of a girl who had been forced to marry someone because he had threatened the girl. The law had never done anything against it. The reason was because the man had kidnapped the girl and brought her to Skandia where he could treat her like a slave.
I didn't really listen because I had put my bag on Darkness. As I sat on Darkness I saw some other people ride towards us. I recognized Horace, Will and Halt but the fourth person triggered only the memory of the name Gilan.
We left a short while later with no one having said a word. We rode in silence all the way to castle Araluen, I suddenly had something against this journey, but nothing happened. I slept most of the time and because Darkness was so nice he didn't care. When I woke up we stood in front of a gate. The gate was open and we rode in.
We saw a man and a girl waiting for us. I recognized the girl as Cassandra, and there was a maid there Evanlyn. I smiled, how wonderful. We came off our horses and as I finished taking my bag off, Darkness followed Will and Tug into the stables. I had my bag in my hand and walked over to Alyss who had her bag.
Cassandra walked over to us and said "Hi, you must be Alyss and Samantha. I'm Cassandra, but you can call me Cassie."
"I would prefer Sam." I told her, my comment earned a look from Alyss, but Cassandra started laughing. It clicked right away. We would be friends and have a good friendship, something I knew wouldn't be the case between these two if I weren't here.
We chatted about a lot of girly stuff and didn't notice king Duncan and Halt walking to the great hall. Cassandra asked us to follow her to the gardens and soon we did. She walked outside the castle protection walls and onto the green grassland on the other side of the water. I saw huge fish swimming in the water and soon felt a bit sick.
We followed her to an apple tree and as we sat there babbling on. Horace had followed us and sat looking from some meters away. I saw Cassandra glance at him now and again, she adored him I could see.
Suddenly we heard Horace being hit to the ground and as we turned around, each of us got grabbed by a man, and they quickly put their hands in front of our mouths they pushed us with our bags in a carriage. I bit the hand of my captor and he let go of my mouth. I screamed, and we were pushed into the carriage.
Then men still held us and soon we were tied together at hands and feet and we had a piece of cloth in front of our mouths. We saw the rangers came running with Horace a bit behind them. We saw a huge wound on Horaces head and I heard the breath getting stuck in Cassandras throat.
My thing wasn't tied good so it sank down. I started screaming again and soon got a very hard thing smacked against the back of my head I fell to the bottom of the carriage and before everything went black I heard two more thuds and guessed someone had also hit Alyss and Cassandra with the thing. I also heard arrows fly through the air and I heard someone scream and fall of the carriage. That was when I noticed it was a simple transport carriage. Then everything went black.
Thanx for reviwing and please continue reviewing. It's what keeps me going and as you can see the story is made based on what you think, and your ideas are part of it.
And I'm proud of myself.
