About two weeks later Jonathon called Daine to speak to him.
"Hello Daine," he greeted her. She smiled at her king.
"I have a letter to give to George. Would you mind having one of your friends take it to him?"
This wasn't an odd request. Jonathon asked her to do this on countless times, but nonetheless Daine had an idea.
"Sir, may I personally deliver it. Numair won't let me do anything anymore. And I've been itching to help."
The King looked at her, "I'm not sure I'll let you. And if I don't what makes you think Numair will?"
"I could probably convince him this time since I'm only three weeks pregnant and, anyway, it's not that dangerous."
He tugged at his beard. After a moment he said, "I'll let you go if Numair let's you."
She smiled, "Thank you sir." With that she got up and left.
………………………………………………………………………
Convincing Numair to let her go was no small chore. But after a few minutes of debate she was on her way to Pirates Swoop.
………………………………………………………………………
She had been flying with the letter for about an hour before she needed a rest.
'Being pregnant wears me out easy' she thought as she brought her hawk self to a tree below.
After a quick rest she jumped back into flight. Pain shot through right her arm. She turned human instantly and fell to the ground with a hard thud. A group of ten masked men surrounded her naked form.
She looked at her arm and saw an ugly black arrow sticking out of it.
One of the men stepped forward and tilted her head back. He poured a brown liquid into her mouth that tasted disgusting. She tried to fight, but her head hurt from the fall.
After a few seconds of gasping blackness took over.
………………………………………………………………………
"Jonathon, what's wrong? The page said it was urgent."
The King didn't say anything for a moment but finally took in a breath and said, "It's Daine. She didn't make it to Pirates Swoop."
