Heavy footsteps rang through the woods constantly gaining on her as she ran. Edaline Ruwen could hear the shouts of the girls rushing after her. Humans were faster than they looked. Glancing backwards as she ran, Edaline didn't see the lurking figure ahead so when she crashed into him getting knocked back. She found herself turning a ghostly shade of white, clutching at her chest trying to steady her breathing.

"What were you thinking?" Alden whisper-yelled dragging her off the ground, "Sneaking off to the forbidden cities, are you crazy, where did you even get a blue crystal?".

"I.... I got it F.... From m...my dad." Edaline stammers as Alden drags her aside and off the trail into the bushes.

"Foolish girl you should know stealing is a terrible offense." A strange man in a silver cloak snaps as he stalks out from behind a tree.

Edaline screams

"C....C.... Councillor B... Bronte?" she stammers eyes wide.

The strange man's only response was a shrug.

"I thought I told you to stay hidden unless it was urgent" Alden snapped.

"So" Bronte shrugged "Just because you're a member of nobility doesn't mean you can boss around a councilor."

Edaline flinches back as Alden snarls "Yes I know but clearly you're scaring her."

"Who cares." Bronte snaps back

"Me, I care." Alden once again snarls

"Well, you shouldn't." Bronte snapped his voice showing hints of anger as shot dark glares at Alden.

Edaline whimpered as she stumbled backwards, bolting in the opposite direction when Bronte turned his glare to her.

"Edaline" Alden sighs, turning to glare at Bronte, "I'll get her, GO BACK TO THE LOST CITIES."

Turning around, Alden hurried off before he heard Brontes answer. Racing along gaining on Edaline with every step Alden tackled her to the ground.
