Hi!!!! So a lot of people have been reading my other story Beat of My Heart, so I hope that more people will be reading this too!!!!!

*End of Flashback*

The next morning I woke up feeling awful. I was hot, then cold, then hot again. I gragged myself out of bed and downstairs to the kitchen and started making breakfist.

"Hurry up I'm starving!" Yelled Natillie from the dining room.

"You try making breakfist for 3 pigs every single day," I mumbled. I cooked eggs and brought them into the dining room, where Martha, Natillie, and Elizabeth were all giving me death glares. I set the plates down where they were sitting, and a wave of dizziness swept over me. I couldn't see and next thing I new I was on the ground. I saw Martha mouth moving, most likely yelling at me but I couldn't hear. I closed my eyes willing to let the darkness take over.

                I woke up on the floor of the dining room. Figures, I thought, they didn't even bother to move me. I got up and my head didn't hurt. I got up and felt fine. I saw a note taped to the table so I walked over. 'Maria, you have slept on the job tomorrow I will personly punish you tomorrow. Bring bandages. - Martha' I gasped. She had hurt me before when I talked back to her once and it was pure pain. I can't even talk about it without crying. I went up to my room and closed the door quietly. I couldn't let her do that to me. I took out my travel bag and started packing my belongings. I went over to my mirror on my desk. My eyes are a forest green and my hair is brown and reachs to the middle of my back. I grabbed my brush, extra clothes, and a few other items. I grabbed my bag and tiptoed abck downstairs and grabbed some food, and a lot of money from the box that Maria keeps by the couch. I stuffed them into my bag and headed outside. I went into the stables where the horses were kept, and grabbed my bow and arrow off the hook on the wall.

"This will be handy," I said. I never missed the target when I hunted. I grabbed a sadle and went over to my horse, Artemis, and got her all set up to ride. I named her after the greek goddess Artemis, or the goddess of the hunt. I hopped on her and rode out into the night my long brown hair flying out behind me. I looked back at the house one more time.

"Goodbye, Witches," I whispered and smiled. I looked away and headed into the dark, green forest.
