Stephanie finished up washing the dishes and placed them in the cabinets. She glanced at the clock on the wall and found that it was almost ten o'clock. She sighed and then walked over and pulled out a handkerchief. She unfolded it several times and then placed in some food. Nothing big and nothing that could attract the dogs attention. She packed in a half a loaf of bread, a small apple, and some carrots. She then folded that napkin back up and tied the ends together. She then tied it to the rope around her waste. She then pulled out knife she used to cut herself and sharpened it and then placed it securely against her ankle in her boot.
Stephanie then quickly walked outside and crept around hoping that no one was outside. Lucky for her sake there wasn't anyone. She walked into the stables and found the horses sleeping. She walked past them and found the cages where the hounds were sleeping. She bit her lip and took the napkin from her breast pocket and unfolded it. As soon as she did the smell of her blood awoke the beasts. She held it out so the beasts could smell it and they instantly began to look confused. She smiled and then folded the napkin back into her pocket and left the stable.
Almost time. She thought as she stood against the wall. She glanced at the manor and saw a light in the window. "Turn off," she whispered. After a moment the light turned off and Stephanie hurried to the peach tree. She had to hurry now. She knew that it was time for the slaves to sleep and that even if she locked the kitchen door they'd get in with the master key. She grabbed the lowest branch of the tree and hoisted herself up and carefully climbed up and when she reached the wall she pulled herself over. When she was about to go over she heard someone shout out "HEY!"
Stephanie turned her head and saw a girl sitting under a nearbye peach tree. Stephanie glared at her. She couldn't turn back now. She then jumpe over the wall and ran off.
Stephanie hurried off down the steep hill that led from the manor. She had to get away now. It was all or nothing. Just then she heard someone behind her making a lot of noise. "Hold it!" the girl shouted. Steph growled and pulled out her knife that she did in her boot. She then slowed down her pace and the girl turned around and caught up to her. She clamped her hand on Steph's shoulder and turned around. Stephanie spun around and grabbed the girl's arm and twisted behind her back. She then held her knife against her throat.
"Shout out one more time i swear I'll slit your throat." Stephanie threatened. The girl froze. "I don't know why you are following me but go back to the manor and go on with your life." She then threw Becky to the ground and was about to leave when the sound of barking was heard. "Damn..." she whispered. She then went to run when the girl who was following her tripped her. The two went sliding down a steep hill into a creek. Stephanie cursed loudly and hurried to get back up.
She then looked down and found the girl almost unconcious. Steph grabbed her by the hair and lifted her up and began to run with her. She needed figured she could use her as a hostage or at least she hoped she did. The girl groaned and watched as Stephanie pulled out several things from her pockets and tossed them around. After running for a while and dragging the girl with her she found a cave.
She dropped the girl in the back and then stood at the opening listening. It was silent the powder she created worked.
A few hours before sunrise Becky awoke to find Steph cutting her apple. Becky groaned and then rubbed her head and then noticed her hand was bandaged up and had a specks of blood on it. "Good morning miss." Steph said handing her and apple piece. Becky looked at her and couldn't help but wonder what was she up too. "Eat it or starve choose!" Steph said sternly. Becky took it and ate it. "Now what is your name? I need to know the name of my hostage." Steph said with a smirk. Becky glared at her and then said, "What's YE name and why are ye runnin? Are you a theif?" "Bloody no Miss. I was living the Manor. My name is Miss Stephanie." she said bowing. "Are you a slave?" Becky asked.
Stephanie's eyes darkened. "I'm a slave to no one." she hissed. Becky nodded. "I'm Becky... why are you running away?" Stephanie sighed. "It's a long story." Stephanie anwsered. "I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours." Becky said. Steph sighed nodded. Why not? Might as well get to know her hostage.
"I was born in a small village seventeen years ago. My father and mother and all of my family were killed. Slaughtered might I say. Being only thirteen at the time i was sent away as a slave to this man who was rich. He was a bastard. He treated me worse then a slave. He dressed me in rags dirtier then this. He did this all so he could have me.
He tried several times to touch me...but i refused and would eventaully be beaten by him. He came after me in my sleep once. I was able to get away by hitting him where the son don't shine. After two years the man went poor and the Undertaker bought us. I remember though... an old housemaid told me to never too look into his eyes... as soon as i do he will want me and will take me. Also she told me to stay in filth so he'd never try and look at me. I've been trying to escape ever since... i do not want to be in his herem and end up as a prostitute for him!"
Becky could tell how angry Stephanie looked. "Where will you go?" Becky asked. "To my old village. Its near the eastern shore." Stephanie replied. Becky noticed the stern look on her face and her dark eyes. She was a mysterious girl. Just then she stood up suddenly. "Get up." She instructed. "Huh?" Becky said. "Get up were leaving now!" She grabbed Becky by the arm and pulled her up. Becky would have fought back but with her ankle injured and Stephanie having a weapon she was at a disadvantage. Becky limped out of the cave with Stephanie behind her.
The two walked until they reached the river. "Where we at?" Becky asked. "I'm not sure." Stephanie announced. "Then how do we know where to go we could be going in circles!" Becky shouted. "Don't worry i know how far to go. I know that after we pass this river and maybe a day or two walk we'll reach the town where that bastard lived. Then another days walk i should reach my town!" Becky was skeptical about going. For all she new Stephanie was crazy.
The two continued the walk and everything was silent when Stephanie stopped Becky. "Something is following us." Steph said. "What?" Becky whispered. "How do you know?" Steph covered her mouth and then listened. She heard twigs snap. Stephanie turned around and saw a pair of yellow eyes. "RUN!" Steph shouted. She ran ahead of becky and there was a loud growl. becky tried to run when the wolf who had been hunting them grabbed Becky by the jaws. It bit deep into the flech of her ankle. Becky screamed and Stephanie was getting away. She turned around and then ran back. She took a rock and hit the wolf causing it to let go.
"COME ON!" Steph shouted. The wolf watch Stephanie and ran at her Steph pulled out her knife and was ready. The wolf lunged but Steph moved out of the way and cut hte dog. In the midst she dropped her knife and it flew across the ground. She tried to get it but the wolf came after her. Becky who climbed up on a low tree branch saw Stephanie backing herself against a tree. Becky looked around and saw apples. She grabbed several of them and began throwing them at the beast. She then began to shout. The wolf howled and then ran at Becky and trapped her in the tree. Steph grabbed her knife but as she was about to throw it at the animal there was numerous arrows lodged into the wolf, making it fall to the grownd dead.
Steph spun around and saw the wolf lying dead. Just then she heard dog barking and men's voices. "oh god no..." Steph said. She then suddenly bolted from her spot and began to run as fast as she could. But before she could get far something hit her and caused her to trip. A second later she was being pulled up and tied up by two of Taker's men. "LET ME GO!" Stephanie screamed.
Becky watched and then gulped but then she saw Kane looking up at her. His eyes cold as ice.
