I do (prequel)

Chapter five: Light

I hold tightly on the swords handle, then I push back. "Maybe I do..." I looked at my sword as I swung it in a full circle. "Maybe I don't." I grinned, holding the sword still. "Face it, I'm going to marry Regina. Your not part of my life anymore, now beat it." I said sternly, I could tell her heart broke. But she kept frowning.

Amy opened her mouth to say something, but she stopped then came after me again ready to strike. I held the sword sideways to block the hit, but she was amazingly strong. "You sure are strong....for a old women." She growled, she wasn't that old. But she was old at least in her 50's. I grinned once more. She pushed hard with her sword on mine.

I fell backwards, I scowled then swung my sword towards her legs but she moved fast enough. She swung her sword, and cliched my cheek open. My jaw hit the floor, I put my hand on it, then looked at my hand it was covered in blood. I let my guard down, and looked up at Amy with anger.

My cut healed up, but before I could get up. She grabbed my arm and yanked me down in the cellar room. We got to the cell where I left James in, and Amy unlocked it to let him out. They threw me in, and tried to take my sword away. I didn't like it one bit, I frowned and growled. "NO!" I screamed with my arms out, then they got thrown into the cell gat door that was closed in front of the one I was in.

I froze and looked at my hands again. I could see the sword on the ground, and I stared at it. A very small grin appeared on my face. Amy quickly got up to close the gate, I squeezed my eyes shut but just as the door almost shut we heard a cling. I slowly opened my eyes, one eye at a time. I had my arms out.

My sword was stopping the door from closing. I slowly walked towards it with my arms still out, then I grabbed the sword with my hand and pushed the gate open. But James got up in time to push me back in. They both whispered something before dashing upstairs again.

I paced back and forth thinking deeply. I have to find a way out of here. I walked over to the sword that was on the ground, but when I did I felt a pull in my heart. My heart was turning evilly black. My eyes flashed black, then I shook my head. I gently placed the sword in its holster, then walked back to the wall.

I started to pull as many lose rocks as I could off of the wall. I wasn't going to stay there any longer. Rock by rock, I slowly made it out. I crawled threw mud and dirt, but made it out. I hugged the wall with my back, and walked against the wall. I came to a stop at the corner, I peeked my head out a little and I could see the horse and the carriage still there.

I looked around, and didn't see the two. I quietly walked to the horse, but I couldn't help but run to the horse. I jumped on the horse and flicked the lead to make him run. The horse ran as fast as he could down the path, his hooves chatted with the gravel. The chains that held the leads together chatted to each other as they hit against each other.

It was lunch time, and I came to a complete stop. "Uhh...which way?" I looked at both of the paths, "left?" I gently kick the horses thighs. It ran down the left path, I felt like I was being swallowed up by each tree. It looked like they were grabbing me each time I passed. Rain clouds started to pick up and chase after me. "C'mon, faster!" I kicked a little harder.

It was a race, each time a three way appeared I'd either take a right or a left. rage started to take over. "STOP!" I yelled, the horse locked up its legs and slid against the gravel. I breathed heavily, the rain caught up and started to pour. Rain raced down my cheeks, dropped off my nose, and soaked us.

I closed my eyes tightly and took a deep breath. I opened them and slowly got off of the horse. I grabbed the horses lead and walked into the forest. The rain started to hit hard, as we walked into the forest. In front of us was a big pile of rocks. There was a gap big enough for the both of us. We slowly walk over there, then we sit underneath the rocks.

"We have to get home soon." I said as I pet his nose when he lied down. I grew tired, and slowly fell asleep kneeled down up against the horse. Hours flew by, and I woke up to the horse lightly neighing. "W-What's wrong?" I slowly open my eyes to see some light on the path near us. "Shh!" I placed my hand gently on the horses nose.

"The horse tracks end here! Search the aria!" A voice demands. I slowly get up, and the horse gets up too. I grab its rain then I lead it the other direction, I try to make sure we both don't step on a branch. I quietly get on the saddle, I waste no time and the horse starts running. I fell pressured and anger takes over.

I remember which way was home, and I get the horse to run even faster. I could see to the right of me the deer that Regina uses to find me. I gently kick the horse to get it to run faster, the horse keeps zipping threw the paths. Eventually I can see home.
