Arranged

Chapter 3

Elizabeth was having a peaceful dream, she didn't know where she was, but she was happy here, she heard someone calling her name, almost a whisper at first, but then it was shouting, it was forewarning. "Get up." it said "Run" "Run" "Run" the voice faded.

"Wake up, beautiful," Elizabeth woke up with a start and a menacing smile in her face. She was terrified.

But that feeling was very quickly overpowered, and her instincts kicked in. She pushed her head forward, headbutting the man in front of her, her first instinct was to grab for her sword, but she quickly realized that it was no longer there. Bastard! He must have taken it while she was sleeping. Correction, bastards, as she took in her surrounding she noticed at least four assailants. Well old fashioned butt kicking it is, she decided to go on the defense instead, just in case. He lunged for her, but he underestimated her, though he definitely wasn't an experienced fighter, and she grabbed his hand swinging it behind him, pushing him down into the ground. She looked up calculating the looks of the other men. Two looked angry, one looked amused. The angry ones came at her, one a stumbling giant, the other small but agile.

They came from two different sides,and she dodged them, but not quick enough, one managed to grab her and she stumbled and fell to the ground, the agile one made a grab for her, but she rolled out of the way. She quickly scurried back up to her feet. She had three coming after her now, the one she had knocked to the ground had decided to join in, she wouldn't be able to defend herself from all three, especcially if th fourth joined in. She needed to get back to Ace, even if she had to abandon her stuff. She let out a loud whistle, Ace wouldn't be far off. They were cornering her she didn't have much time, Ace came galloping in, and in the confusion she jumped onto him, and began to ride. However the fourth one who she hadn't noticed before had other plans. Before she had gotten even three feet, she was hit in the head with the butt of a sword, her sword, and she feel to the ground.

The blow wasn't enough to knock her out, but it definately put everything in a new perspective, as she was seeing a few of everything. Before she could even think about getting up, the tip of her own sword was pointed in her own face, and the fourth man smirked at her. "Now, now lady I would have to put a mark on that pretty little face, but i think thats enough fun for now, don't you?" The Anger in Elizabeths face aparantly didn't convince him however, because he pressed down enough to draw just enough blood to startle her, but not do any serious or permant damage. His face turned serious now, "There will be no further problems from here, is that understood?"

"Well see." Elizabeth responded, the man didn't like that answer because he knocked her in the head with her sword again, this time the blow was enough to knock her out.
