A huge herd of horses looked as though they were heading straight for the castle! It wasn't a herd of horses, there were soldiers in uniform with swords in their hands! Aurora and Mulan were nervous. Aurora and Mulan saw what was about to be played out right in front of them. They quickly grabbed each other's hands! Suddenly, there was a whistle! It was right behind them. Aurora's father whistled again in front of the opened gates. He was trying to call them.
"Come on.", he yelled.
He gestured wildly for them to follow him. Without any words, the girls took one last look at each other and then ran to him. Once they were inside, Aurora's father, then, shut the gates behind them so that the men that are on the horses won't get in.
