Chapter 3

Quiet engulfed the Counsel chamber

Worried looks abounded

Very few words were exchanged

As the meeting ended

The assassin hadn't been captured

But a note had been found

Someone was still after Wren

Someone thought to be dead

On the outside,

Wren looked calm

On the inside,

She was terrified

He was going to come after her to

Not just to kill her

But to get revenge

For trying to kill him

'He deserved to die'

Wren thought desperately

As she walked through the halls

Carefully listening for any sounds

She continued swiftly through the halls

Thinking about her fate

Until she had reached

A small, relatively unknown balcony

Wren stood there quietly

As her thoughts stretched before her

Overwhelmed, she collapsed suddenly

But never hitting the ground
