CHAPTER 12

I sat in that rotting cell for what seemed like days. Or maybe it was. No one came and said hello, no one bothered to cook the meat that was left on my tray, and nobody, especially nobody, came to my rescue. I just sat there, and tried to figure a way out of the most treacherous place imaginable. But I hadn't quite got to way four of my escape plan, when a knocking came at my window. At first my mind flashed with the sight of robin, and that somehow he had found me. But it wasn't him, and instead someone else. My hors—unicorn was at the window. I had thought she had disappeared, apparently not.

I stood up and went to the bared up window and looked at her, with a pleading gaze. This is stupid. I am having a staring contest with some "magical creature". But, to my surprise, that "magical creature" was not alone. It had almost slipped my mind that there was someone standing next to her. Robin. My sigh of re leaf was almost loud enough for china to hear me. He put his hand against the window and peered inside. I put my hand to the place where his hand was, and then rested my forehead against the little bit of glass that was exposed through the bars.

"I am going to get you out of there" he said. His voice was muffled by the objects between us.

I closed my eyes. The next few minutes went by in a flash. There was a swoop here and a swoop there with one or two bangs, and the window was off. Only problem was my dress. It wouldn't fit through the hole. So I did what I had to do to escape. And I took it off. There was another under outfit on my body, so I wasn't totally exposed, but Robin must have thought I was getting nude or something because he covered his eyes and handed me his jacket. I took his jacket and covered my self up.

"I grabbed your red dress, encase something like this happened" he said, with his hands over his eyes.

"thank you so much Robin!" I said. "you know you don't have to cover your eyes, we are going to be married someday"

He refused to lower his hand, so I put on the dress and we ran. We ran faster than the first time this happened. We ran all the way back to his castle. And when we arrived, something was off. There wasn't anyone there. No maids, no servants, no woman, no children, no husbands or wives or babies. Only silence. Silence to stretch for miles and miles. That was, until a large, ghostly scream emerged from the castle. I want stiff, and so did Robin. We didn't move a muscle.
