A new life

As Marian ran not a single thought entered her mind except getting away from her pursuer and getting to the guild. She never looked back as she ran but once she got to the hill that overlooked Bower lake her pursuer tackled her. They then went rolling down the hill and once they got to the bottom he was on top of her and was forcing her hands to the ground. He was out of breath and his hair was hiding his face but Marian could swear she saw a few drops of sweat falling from his face. Finally after a moment or two of him trying to catch his breath Marian used her strength and forced him off of her. She then got on top of him and pinned him down to the ground. He was still trying to catch his breath and at the same time he was struggling to force her off and gain control again.

Marian then realized that if she fled now she could lose him before he could even catch up with her. She then prepared herself to flee and once she was ready she quickly jump off of him and started to run, but as soon as she got off of him and started to run he jump up and grabbed her thick hair which had grown longer over the past three years and when she let it run freely down her back it when about halfway down her thigh. Once he got ahold of her hair Marian stopped dead in her tracks unsure of what he would do next, but as soon as he was sure he got a firm grip on her hair he slowly walked up towards her. When he got to her he grabbed her arm firmly with his other hand and when he did he let go of her hair. As soon as he let her hair go it slowly fell to her back and once it settled he turned her around firmly but at the same time gently.

Once she was turned around and facing him he examined her closely. She wore no make up in fact she really didn't need to and she was very well formed from what he could tell, but after a few moments she started to struggle ready to pull out her gun and put it to his head. But before she could even pull out her gun he pulled her face up to his so she could look at him. He was one of the most handsome men she had ever met but she quickly stopped thinking about his appearance and started to struggle again, but before she could break free he placed his free hand on her back and held her closer to him. Marian then felt a sudden urge to smack him as hard as she could but she restrained herself and asked.

" Who are you?"

He then pulled her even closer so that their bodies were no longer apart and gave her a grin that would make most women swoon in delight and replied with." I am Reaver my dear Marian."

She then felt goose bumps form on her skin and wondered how this man got under her skin so much, but she quickly snapped out of it and as she was about to throw a punch or two his way they heard a loud growl come from behind him. It was Lucky but before Reaver could pull his gun out Lucky pounced on him and as Lucky did Reaver let go of Marian and she started running toward hero hill, but before she started to sprint she called for Lucky and once she was out of Reaver's reach Lucky got off of him and chased after Marian. As Marian ran towards hero hill she felt the wind fly through her hair and as she got closer and closer to her sanctuary she heard Reaver and the same man who had her gun following her. When she got to the beginning of hero hill she turned to see how far behind they were but they were getting close. She then turned around and started running up the path with Lucky on her heels. When she got to the top of hero hill she ran to the center plate and began to started to activate the cullis gate so she could get into the guild but as she was finishing Reaver and the man came up the path. The man then pulled out his gun and aimed it at her figuring if she tried to run he would shoot her. He then grinned and said.

" You got nowhere to run girl so just give up and put your pistol on the ground."

Lucky was now at her side and she let out a little chortle and said. " That's were your wrong."

She then opened the portal to the guild and she and Lucky ran through it closing it behind them. When she got to the guild the first thing she did was take the muzzle off of Lucky she then thought to herself how she could have been so stupid to fall into the man's trap but Lucky's slobbery dog kisses forced those thoughts away and she relaxed. She waited for the next few hours with Hammer and Theresa studying old tomes and playing with Lucky in the guild but as she was getting ready to leave she couldn't help but wonder why Reaver had acted the way he did. She wondered if that was the way he always acted or if it was just to her. She quickly forced these thoughts out of her mind reminding herself she had Alex and nothing was going to change that.

Hey everyone I hope you enjoyed this as always and please leave a review in the comments and I will have the new chapter up on Halloween and it will be a little random chapter that will have a little bit of a odd moment between Sparrow and Marian but I think it's pretty funny but whether anyone else will I can't say. So again please review and I hoped you enjoyed.
