Chapter #4
Everyone started to clap, except us. They looked surprised. I felt like someone had punched me in the stomach. I could tell Vodia did too, because she wrapped her arms around her stomach, we stormed outside.
They followed us. Legolas came up behind Vodia. Then Elelas followed him, and ran over to me. They turned us around. I didn't even want to look Elelas in the eyes.
"Why did you follow us if you were going to be married?" I asked him, trying to fight back the tears.
"We didn't know I swear" He looked like he was telling the truth.
Vodia couldn't take it anymore she ran toward the carriage, flung the door open, and jumped in.
" I can't believe I kissed you," I said as I started for the carriage. It started to move I ran along side it, Vodia opened the door, and I jumped in.
I looked back, they were just standing there. Suddenly, Legolas screamed, "NO!!," and started to chase after the carriage, Elelas soon followed him. It was going to fast they couldn't catch up.
We made it back to the palace. We went into my room.

Later that night our mothers came up to the room.
"What happened?" My mother asked.
"I'm sorry we left like that, we had not felt well, and got sick, so we came home" I answered. I had planned out what I was going to say, ahead of time.
Vodia was still sitting on the bed, exactly where she fell when we came into the room.
"Well feel better." Vodias mother said.
They closed the door. I went over to my bed and lay down next to Vodia. We fell asleep.

I sat up slowly, something was wrong. Then I noticed Vodia wasn't there, she was sitting near the balcony, no, she was sitting on the edge.
"Vodia, what are you doing?" I asked, something wasn't right.
There wasn't an answer. I walked over to her that's when I saw it. I gasped, and backed away from the window, fast. I couldn't believe it. Suddenly I heard Vodia scream. An arrow flew past her head into the room; she fell backwards, onto the floor.
