Roaul fought the urge to look behind him; he too knew what was waiting behind them. Alanna's eyes widen in fear, she hated those man size spiders. Her mouth was wide open as her nails dug into her thighs to keep herself from screaming or making a sound. George, whom was unaware of the sudden silence and the creature that was behind him turned around, he came face to face with its fiery red eyes and sharp dripping pinchers. Its hairy legs pounced at George causing him to hit a tree. It lunged forward, pinning George towards the tree. Jonathan drew his sword and so did Roaul. All Alanna could hear was the shrieks, cries and yells.

"Grab its legs!" she heard Jonathan yelling. Alanna looked above as she tried to climb out of the hole, being short didn't help at all. She held a crunching noise below her feet. She looked down as a green slimy and sticky substance that laid under her boots. She looked to the rather large hole at her right and opened her mouth to scream. About twenty hand sized spiders charged out. She felt some on her back and open her neck. She jumped right out of the hole, running at full speed as she trashed around and flung off all the spiders off her body. She looked to her three friends to find them gone.

"George?" she called, "Jonathan!" there were no reply.

"Roaul" she called rather louder, as she walked a few pace forward. Moonlight stood there, her eyes wide in fear. Jonathan, George's and Roaul's horses were standing next to Moonlight, they were not moving. It was awfully quiet, which made Alanna uneasy. She looked around her, and then she heard Jonathan's yelling and swords clanking together. She then heard footsteps running closer and closer towards her. Relief flooded her as the footsteps came nearer and closer. Then to her horror, it wasn't her companions, it was bandits. She groaned as they snickered at her. They looked almost the same, with the same ragged clothing and the red painted arrow on their forehead. Their breads were braided into one neat pile and their hair was a mess, there were six of them. She drew her sword as she got into her fighting stance.

"Look…the little lady wants to fight" one of them laughed as she could her temper rising at boiling point.

"Little?" Alanna yelled in disbelief, "I'll show you little!"

With that she flung herself at them attacking then defending as they came all at once. One grabbed her tunic and pushed her to the ground. She jumped to her feet as she plunged her sword into one of the bandit stomach. He cried in pain as collapsed to the ground. Then her sword flew out of her hands as she yelled in horror. She was disarmed, defeated.

Forgot what I have taught you already lioness? Liam's mocking voice floated into her head.

"Never" Alanna whispered as she kicked and punched as one grabbed her from behind. They were stronger than she was and two of them easily pinned her to the ground. She closed her eyes and waited fro the killing blow. But it never came, instead they were fumbling with her clothes.

Giving up already sister? Thom voice sounded amused in her head, I thought you were going to revenge my death

Her mind raced, was she going crazy or did she just heard two dead people's voices in her mind? She groaned then punched the closest one in the face, got to her feet and fly kicked another. Moonlight's terrified neigh reached her ear as she felt her arm split open. Forced by the impact she fell to her knees as Moonlight charged to her rescue, distracting the last man from attacking her mistress.

Get up, what are you doing? Faithful yelled in her mind. She felt as though her head was about to explode. Making a distressful sound she got to her knees, reached for her dagger that was strapped to her boots and flung it at the last bandit. It hit his neck and was fatal. She collapsed to the ground breathing hard. Moonlight came towards her as she knocked Alanna's face gently with her nose.

"Let me sleep" Alanna muttered under her breath as she could hear George's voice then laughter. They came into view, all were smiling but when they saw her on the ground, blood on her body their expression changed and they ran towards her. Alanna closed her eyes to clear her mind.

"Alanna wake up" George said tapping her face gently. She didn't move, her arm hurt so badly and she didn't have the strength to move.

"Alanna!" Jonathan said as he shook her. She opened her eyes and they screamed. Roaul laughed as she sighed in exhaustion.

"Think I'm dead already?" Alanna asked with a smile as George attended to her wounded arm, "What happened to you three?"


Roaul went to gather some firewood while Jonathan set up camp. George sat next to her as they talked. He told her about how two more of the man size spiders came and how the three of them fell into the same pit. He told her how they managed to fight them off and how worried he was when he saw her there. She watched Jonathan as he tried to catch some fish in the river that was nearby. She laughed when he fell and got himself all wet. She walked towards him and decided that she should join in with the fun while George went to find Roaul. He smiled when he saw her. Then after a while Jonathan finally caught one, it was big enough to fill all four stomach, she laughed when the fish's tail hit his face then he was so close towards her that their nose touched. His lips touched hers for a moment, and then Thayet popped into her mind as she pushed him gently away. She turned around and ran towards their camp, leaving him standing there with the fish in his hands.
