Chapter One: April

April was losing her breath as the bushes and trees she was running through tore her clothes, the dark forest and moonless sky made it even harder to run and the occasional open root made April constantly trip. April heard the shouts of the people right behind her meaning they were catching up. She was frantically was trying to find a place to hide, then all of a sudden she tripped, hard, over a tree branch and was pretty sure she broke her ankle. The others caught up to her and when they were  an arms length away someone came to the front . " Well well well we finally caught up to you my dear." said the biggest member of the group who looked like the leader of the crew, " You deary are in a lot of trouble, just enough that your daddy can't get you out of this one." April tried to get away but two of the men grabbed her. " My dad always did and always will get me  out of trouble him being priest and the kings best friend and all." said April. " Meaning YOU are the ones in the jail this time , so I recommend you let me go and we can all just walk away with no broken bones!" Every just stared at the scrawny red head girl and laughed. " YOU, beat US up! Nice joke but I'm pretty sure 7 grown men can easily survive a 14 year old girls 'attack'." Said the leader. " Go ahead let her go and give her a try " he motioned to the two men holding her, and they let her go. April put her hands up in fists letting the others know she was ready to fight. The leader came up and put his fists up and was waiting for her to make the first move. April punched him in the face, but he just put his fists down and started laughing. " Are you kidding me that felt like a bug just landed on my face, if you want me to get hurt you do this." He move to the right a little then punched April the face repeat idly until she was on the ground. " Next time know what you can do before you open your big mouth." April lay on the ground all bloody and swollen face and the leader motioned one of his guys to drag her back to the village. The guy just picked up her foot and dragged her by the leg back to the village.
