¤Esca's P. O.V¤
We were in shock to find that the black clothed men were in fact black clothed women, all who were beautiful. Some of the women broke off to go to their families and some whistled. Beasts came running to them; mountain lions, wolves, hawks, foxes, falcons, even rabbits and squirrels.
"Women?! We were ambushed by women!" Yelled Farious.
"Yes, now get over it." Said a smooth dark voice. We turned to the source to find a women with light brown hair and deep blue eyes. Looking closer I saw she had metal pieces in her hair.
"Are you Tallis?" Asked Marcus
She chuckled before answering "No, Tallis will be here soon." A loud roar was heard near the edge of the forest. "Right on time." She mumbled.
We turned. A huge brown bear came out chasing a woman in a black coat and mask. You could hear her laughing as the bear chased her. The bear jumped on top of her, you could hear the air get knocked out of her with an UMFF.
But the bear never attacked all it did was hold her down and look at her.
I heard the woman yell out, but I did not know for what. The light brown haired woman jogged over to her and leaned over her as if the bear was not present.
"She didn't change does she Jact?" Trag asked.
"The day Tallis changes is the day Tegan stops snorting when she laughs."
"I do not snort when I laugh!" The captor who attacked Trag with a hug earlier yelled.
The two traitors look at each other and in unison said "Suuure you don't. "
A few of the villagers heard and chuckled.
The deep blue-eyed woman walked back over to us with a bag. If you looked behind her you could see the bear walking after her, but was stopped when "Tallis" jumped on its back. I then notice the bear had a makeshift saddle on. The listened to its master as she turned it left and right.
None of us expected her to charge the bear at us. We all screamed in fear as the large bear stood on its hind legs and had it's claws extended toward us. But we stopped when we heard it.
SHE WAS LAUGHING! The woman on top of the bear was laughing at our took off her mask, and smiled. But it wasn't a nice kind of smile. It was a kind the said "I will kill all of you with my bare hands."
"Now, Jact, Trag as much as I am glad that you are home," her voice was sweet and calming, "Why in the Protector's name are there Romans on my land?" But it turned cold and angry quickly. And her bear reacted fast and swiped at the two knocking them down.
"It was the only way to get home." Jact answered, he was scared of the woman.
She sighed "I understand that but why, why didn't you kill them and then come home?"
"Well you did say we were low on men," he was on back on his feet walking toward her, "I brought you some. See I can prove what you need." He reached out to her hand and when his hand got closer to hers; the more anxious her bear got.
She lightly touched her bear's back. "Jact," she said softly ," I'm not in a forgiving mood and you want to try to and get me into your bed." Her voice was a growl. "Do not make me skin you alive." She kicked him in the chest making him fly away from her.
Tallis turned to the light brown haired woman and told her something a language that I actucally knew.
"Take them to the post. Tie them there, no weapons, no armor, no sandals, stripe them to their bare minimum. I want 10 guards watching them." Her voice was stern and not to be reckoned with.
