Astrid woke with a start. Something was different. She felt...lighter. Like a huge burden was lifted from her shoulders. She looked around and saw the King laying by her side and Lavender and Jace at her feet. They were all fast asleep. She stood up and took in her surroundings. She was in a clearing of a forest. Something was different about the forest. Instead of leaves on the ground from the trees there was bright green thriving grass and a stream laid near by but instead of it being brown and dirty it was clear and pebbles laid on the bottom. All the leaves were either a light pink or a vibrant maroon. The trunks of the trees were a brilliant shade of ivory that glimmered in the purple setting sun. Between the trees she saw a movement. Something was running towards her. "Lavender!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. Everyone woke with a start. Jace jumped up from the ground quickly followed by Lavender. Jace motioned for Astrid to give him her dagger which she did glad that she didn't stab someone in the process. By now the creature was almost upon them. Jace ran towards it and was about to stab it in the heart until he stopped. For the creature was nothing more then a centaur.
