Cameron stared at me in disbelief.

"Wha.. Wha... What," he stammered. "What do you mean she killed them!?"

"Exactly what I said Cameron. She set their room on fire one sweet afternoon. The guards wanted her on death row but since they couldn't find me then she had to rule. Rule then kill me," I growled impatiently.

Really? He didn't know what 'she killed them' meant. I was growing very impatient and hated repeating myself. His amber eyes meet mine and he weakly smiled.

"What the f**k is wrong Cameron? They were my parents not yours. So why in the world are you acting so sad and in denial," I asked, annoyance tinted my voice.

"What? You don't care? Scarlett you aren't this heartless so stop acting like you are! Is it bad that I'm crying. You mean my world Scarlett so when I hear your parents aren't alive you really think I'm going to be like 'oh well their dead and I guess shit happens'! Really Scarlett," he said staring into my eyes.

Tears stung my eyes. I tried blinking them back but had no such luck. I eventually let the tears just flood out of my eyes. This sorrow feeling was beginning to become familiar. Too familiar for anyone's liking.

Cameron simple stepped forward and embraced me. His warm body pressed against me, it felt nice. I could feel the outline of his muscles and strong body frame. I felt my heart pounding from just being so close to him. He caressed my hair softly and whispered, "it will be ok Scarlett. Shh".

Soon, too soon, he stepped away from me. He left his strong hands on my shoulders though, steadying me. Then with his left hand he whipped my tears away from my cheek and did the same for the other cheek.

"Why Cameron? Why do you care so much," I whispered. I almost feared for the answer.

"Because Scarlett. I love you. Maybe you don't feel the same way but Scarlett, I love you and I always will protect you," he smiled, a strong sweet smile.

Suddenly a clapping came from behind us. I whipped around and saw the face I had begged not to.

"Ari you son of a bitch," I lunged at her but Cameron caught my shoulder.

"Hahaha oh Scarlett. At least you haven't changed. Still the stupid idiot that doesn't understand a thing," she grinned wickedly.

"Stay away from us. You know you can't beat me. You never could. And you think its changed," I said powerfully.

"Hahaha Scarlett. Much has changed my dear. You can no longer beat me," Ari began to step closer and closer to me.

Sesame snarled and leaped at Ari. She pinned Ari to the ground in one motion.

"Oh really Ari. Looks like I can still beat you," I rose my hand to her and as my hand moved so did she.

"You are powerless still Arianna. Leave me now. I'm not quite ready to beat your ass," I said throwing her into the sky.

She disappeared as soon as she got to the tree tops. I smiled then looked behind me. Cameron was gone.

~~~~~

I saw the girl my Scarlett hated but her beauty took my breath away. Her hair fell in black curls down her strong straight back. Why did Scarlett hate her? My memory was fading as I stared at her. She was truly beautiful. But my Scarlett, I needed her and she needed me.

"Scarlett," I said faintly but soon everything was black.

~~~~~

My body filled with fear as I whipped around. Nothing. He was gone. Then my eyes traveled to the ground where I saw him, out cold.

"Cameron? Hello," I knelt down next to him.

His breathing was normal but his eyes were closed and he wasn't responding. I tried to lift him but had no success. He was just to heavy. I sighed and went over to the unicorns. This was going to be a long night.

I had built the tent Cameron had packed and had laid out the sleeping bag I found and put blankets on top of that. I then walked a few feet to where Cameron still lay out cold and started to drag him to the tent.

After I had got Cameron in and tucked up in the blankets, I walked outside. From the outside the tent looked completely normal but when you went in it, it was huge. The tent was that of a magical tent with an almost endless size inside but you could pack it up to be very small. And since it was huge, I could bring the horses in and rest them comfortably anywhere inside.

I held the bridle of Storm-Brooke and fastened the lead onto it. I then grabbed Sky-Ghost's bridle and stuck a lead onto it.

"Sesame! Here girl! Sesame," I yelled.

In a few minutes Sesame trailed out of the woods, dragging two dead rabbits. She then dropped the bunnies at my feet.

"Good girl, Sesame! Oh what a good Sesame," I cooed. She wagged her tail happily.

I picked up the rabbits in one hand and in the other hand I patted Sesame's head. I then gave the lead of Storm-Brooke to her. Sesame took the lead and began to trot over to the tent. I smiled. It was so good to back in Balinor.
