The sun was shinning over Aurora in an open field. The grass was green and dotted with wild flowers of all kinds. She was dressed in a normal white shirt and ridding pants and boots. Her fingers where twirling over the long stocks of grass that poked up here and there.
She suddenly felt strong hands reach around her. She turned around and her torso was pressed against that of William's. His eyes were locked upon hers.
"William?"
"Aurora. I don't know what I'm doing but….,"
" I've always said something in my mind since I've gotten close to you Will. Se soltanto potrei disgeli il vostro cuore. Ti amo,"
The two where inches from each other. The knight of legend inched closer to his lady, a look full of soul fullness…..
Aurora jumped up in her sleep with a gasp. It had all been a dream. A very weird dream. She again jumped when she spotted a visitor in her room
" Paulo? Che cosa è esso?"
" Come and see with me Poco Drago," Paulo said.
Aurora followed Paulo on horse back to the new location of the gypsy camp. In the middle was a man atop a deep brown stallion and other men tearing through the tents and throwing random things on the fire. Women and children where crying and the men where being held back at the point of crossbows.
"What is the meaning of this?" Aurora boomed as she dismounted her horse.
"Who are you woman?" the man from on top of the stallion asked.
" I am Lady Aurora Draco of Valdera. And I want to know what you think you are doing to these good people!" Aurora yelled.
The man got down to her level, pointing a short sword her way to make his presence known.
"Woman, you have no business here. Be gone from here before I have my men deal with you," he said as she approached him forcefully.
" I will not go. These people have done no wrong. My business is with you or your employer,"
"These are criminals and deserve to be wiped from the face of the earth," the man said.
Aurora watched as one of the men back handed Nonna in the face. Aurora grabbed a blade from her boot and went after the man before her screaming at him.
" You bastard! I'll kill you all!"
There where just too many men there against her. Paulo struggled to get to her, but failed. The next thing Aurora felt was the feeling of cold steel, a sharp pain, and hot moisture in her left abdomen. The man before her snarled and the world grew dark around her and she became very tired suddenly. When she tried to move, it was like she was in water. Then everything faded to black.
