~Rosie's POV~
"Rosie," dad whispers into my ear. "Yes dad..?" I look at him. "Go into the tree, then appear behind the worker, grab the knife," I nod. Another construction worker had appeared next to Toby. Before anyone could say anything, I run up into the trees, climbing as fast as I can. "Where's she going?!" Toby asks my family. "No where," my dad says. I carefully climb from branch to branch, not falling. I make it to where I threw the knife, then drop down. I land on my feet, I had been jumping out of trees for years. I take the knife out of the tree and lean against it. Jace was trying not to laugh, as I leaned against the tree. "Hey," I say. The other construction worker turns around and I punch him in the face. "Hey! What's that for?!" The construction worker named Toby asks. "For saying your going to take away our forest," I say, pretending to sharpen the knife. "D-don't use that on me.." He says, before running away, forgetting his friend.
His friend gets up, and looks at me. His nose was bleeding, so i decide to punch his eye. I punch his eye, kick him in the gut, then punch his face again. "Okay, you can go," I say, leaning down to put my hands into the snow to wipe off the blood from his face. "That. Was. Awesome!" I hear from behind me. I turn around, I had forgot that my family was there. It was Jace who had said that, his blue eyes shining. "Heh, thanks," I walk back over to where my family was, noticing Robert had disappeared. "Did Robert go after Lydia?" I ask. "Yeah, and he didn't want to see you fight. Thought you were going to kill the man,"
"Nah, I just hurt him a little," I say, holding my stinging knuckles. "Well, Rosie, looks like we have to pack our stuff," dad says. "Why?" I ask, tears in my eyes. Jace quickly comes over and hugs me, holding me against his chest. "Because, we have to move,"
