Ruby grinned satanically as she heard her knife lodge into Jace's flesh, and watched Mason's arrows fly by her head. The smile faded into a scowl as Jace disappeared into the cover of the forest, and she briefly remembered the bags. "Mason, the bags," she called back, her voice cracking as she breathed heavily. She took off again, hopping over a fallen log as though it were nothing. "Where are you?" she shouted, listening to her own words echo. Of course Jace wasn't stupid enough to answer. But as Ruby stood there, searching intently for any sign of the boy, she heard the sound of a twig giving way to someone's footsteps on the path to her right. She kept up her devilish smirk and took off down the same path, every footstep she made crashing noisily through the vague underbrush.
Christina::
Christina couldn't think and she couldn't hear, let alone breathe. She could barely even see through the thick, salty tears that clouded her vision. "No, please, I'm begging you," she said again, pushing the last huff of air from her lungs as she screamed the words out. She saw a knife sticking out from Elspeth's shoulder, and didn't even care where it had come from. Christina reached up and used all of her strength to pull the knife from the young girl's shoulder, slashing it out in front of her blindly. She hoped and prayed it would hit, in desperation it would give her a chance to live.
