~Kendall's POV~
On my way out of the house, I laid out breakfast for Raven with a note next to it.
The note read:
Dear Raven,
Good morning beautiful! I'm sorry I'm not here, I went out. Please don't follow me. The journey is much too dangerous, and I want you to be safe. If you are curious as to why I left, I'll tell you. Even though you might not like my answer. I have gone to find your brother to negotiate your fate and destiny. I know it's not my business, but you need to understand..I'm in love with you and I want to be with you forever. So let me go. Please. I'll be safe. And I promise, I'll come home safely to you. Promise.
Love, Kendall
I left the note, partially in tears, and opened the door to leave. I ran out as far as I could.
I stopped out of breath, and I sat up against a tree.
I wiped off the sweat from my forehead, sighing at what I'm doing.
Suddenly, I heard branches and leaves crack.
I stood up, took my bow in hand, and put in an arrow ready to shoot. I walked around like this for a few seconds.
Then I saw them.
Two big black dogs.

I paced my room anxiously hoping the general would walk in any second with Raven holding his hand.
I heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
A young lady, Echo, came in. "Hey your majesty." She curtsied.
"Echo. You're my best friend, you don't have to do that." I turned to face her.
"Well I have to be polite." She smiled.
I hugged her. "I'm so happy to see you."
"I heard about your sister. And I'm sorry. That's horrible. I know they'll find her." She said.
Echo always knew what to say. It's like she had a magic touch.
"Thanks Echo." I said smiling.
~Kendall's POV~
I held my bow up, about to shoot.
One of the dogs changed into a human. "Woah easy there buddy. You don't wanna shoot us."
"Oh yeah? Why not?"
The other one changed into a human. "Because we're Raven's friends."
"H-how do you know Raven?" I let my bow slacken a bit.
"We grew up together. Now drop your weapon."
I pulled my bow back up in full force again. "Tell me your names."
"Well," the first one said, "I'm Logan, that's Carlos. Are you happy now?"
I rolled my eyes and put my bow down.
"Do you know where I can find her brother?"
They looked at each other.
Logan nodded. "Yeah, but you're gonna need some help."
