chapter 10

A/n didn't know what to call this chapter also switching to 3rd person for a while might change back though

Sapphire looks down to her blade “what's wrong” ember calls over “just admiring the blade” Sapphire says partly to herself  “if you say so” Ember replies “anyway what do we do with him” she says talking about the bounty hunter currently unconscious dried blood clinging to his nose “I don't know he could be an issue” she replies “what do you think Ane?” sapphire asks now talking to Ane “I think we should take him with us as a bargaining tool if nothing else”though sounding cold and calculated she is actually feeling sympathy and its clear in her voice “we know you don't mean that but I do agree with your point we should take him to the camp” sapphire exclaims she now looks at the man herself as he begins to wake up ember looks over wondering what to do sapphire nods and ember lets the barrier between them disappear and creates balls of fire that float beside her Ane gets an arrow  and gets ready to fire whilst Sapphire walks towards him he begins to turn to run then sees the circle of fire “damn it” he says drawing his blade “drop it” Ember snarls almost immediately. He then drops his blade seeing the fire “damn mage you'll rot for this” for that Sapphire punches him in the nose there's a nasty crack as it starts to bleed quite heavily deciding it's not worth the argument he shuts up “right we're heading for quarters you're going with us you're on the horse with me once we get one” sapphire explains “any ideas?” she asks everyone “two, we could steal or use the ones me and Jay came on” Ember answered. Sapphire looked up “that might work very well though first I would like to check the clearing for bodies ” at this they begin their trek to the area of Sky's possible death however when they reach it not without a struggle from the bounty hunter there are no bodies in site “spread out see what you can find” Sapphire says before walking off on her own search for Sky she finds were the dagger struck the tree the splintered area is covered in blood still dripping down the tree into a sickly red puddle whilst Sapphire looks at this Ane screams at this Sapphire and Ember chase after the noise to find an area that drops down at the bottom Ane is sat looking rather embarrassed a man is leant against a tree looking in rather a lot of pain Ember recognizing the man slides down to meet him whilst Sapphire walks round as to avoid the small slope “oh thank god you are alive” Ember says to the man wearing the same form of armour as her clearly the over rescuer “how did you get away?”
