Outlawed (Accepting)

"Wonder if I could sneak into the ranks of the army?" Saya whispered brushing down Deuce.

Rebecca shook her head. "Arowin won't let us get hurt." she said but there was a slight doubt in her head. Rebecca looked up into the trees with wild rabbit eyes searching for the other person.

Arowin stopped at the same tree as earlier and called out. "I have him! Give Chris back!" she shouted into the trees and stood waiting.

(Arrowin talked to Sam, the man who has captured Chris, and it was revealed he wants the Prince in exchange for Chris. Worried, Arrowin comes back to Emerald and the others looking for Prince Stephan. Rebecca has been hiding him because the two have become friends. So, Prince Stephan AND Rebecca are going with Arrowin and both will be turned in to Sam. Meanwhile, Sam has been torturing Chris and....I think that's about it.)

Emerald gripped the reigns in her hand and watched Arrowin ride off. She sighed, worrying for Chris as well. Her heart went out to Arrowin, she knew exactly how she felt right now. The horrible feeling of weather or not your love will come back or not, make it through the day or be in the ground by nightfall. Tears started to well up in her eyes as her thoughts led her to Casper but she blinked them back. No, she needed to be strong. For Arrowin, for the Hood, for Frank. And most importantly, for herself. She hated feeling small and weak like this. It made her feel vulnerable, and it made her feel even worse if others saw her crying. So she shook away the tears, though the thoughts wouldn't leave, and silently wished Arrowin good luck. Though Arrowin probably wouldn't need it.

Chris heard Arowin's voice and hope and relief started to blossom in him.

Sam watched the girl Arowin thoughtfully. It was a good offer. She better not be trying to trick him, he thought with a curl of his lip. The others would love it if he captured the Prince. He untied Chris from the tree but kept him bound up and hefted him onto his back, grunting with the effort. Quickly he ran down the branches of the trees, leaping from branch to lower branch, until he reached the ground and swamy Chris off his back over his head and onto the ground between him and Arowin, none too gently. Chris moaned slightly, his mouth and eyes still bound as well. A trickle of blood ran from the shallow cut on his cheek. Sam admired his work and retreated a few bounds, drawing his knife from the safe distance and hurrying back to Chris, placing the knife at this throat. "You came," he said to Arowin, smiling, but his different colored eyes shone with deathly seriousness. They wandered to the Prince and the girl handcuffed to him. Sam recognized the girl immediately as the one he had threatened in the forest."What is this?" he said slowly, tightening his grip on Chris.

Prince Stephan wasn't assured at Rebecca's confident words. He bit his lip nervously, wishing he would endure this alone but also glad to have the pretty girl on his side, sort of. He twisted in his seat and realized Arowin wasn't leading Sinner. Panic shot through him as he searched for the warm eyes of his loyal warhorse. To Arowin, interrupting her confront with the creepy man that had attacked him in the woods,he asked in a strange voice, "What have you done with my horse?" Anger was boiling in him now. "Sinner listens to me, and only me. He is mine. Where have you put him?"

Arowin snarled slightly as she saw the blood run down Chris' face. She ignored Sam's question and instead drew her bow and arrow in a flash shooting a single arrow into the palm of his hand and into the tree trunk. She hurried forward to Chris and cut his bonds and helped him up. She threw her arms around him and kissed him. "I'm sorry." she whispered before pulpit back and drawing him behind her. Together she started to back up with him. She shot Rebecca a look and then bolted into the shadows with Chris in tow.

Rebecca quickly spurred her horse Lara on. The thoroughbred ran wildly as Rebecca couldnt reach the reins. She didn't care though, they had to try get away.

((Gonna be gone till friday , sorrry guys D: ))

(( Siiiighhhh ))

Chris was tugged violently around and he heard Arowin's voice, but instead of happiness he felt a confusing tingle of anger. What was she trying to pull off this time? He couldn't see or barely breath with his gags but then they were cut and the light blinded him and suddenly Arowin pulled him and he stumbled. He was extremely heavy, so when Arowin took off with him he tripped, still confused from the sudden light and the jerky movements and the kiss and he tripped she accidentally ended up dragging him across the ground. He tried to speak but ended up coughing instead, trying to pick himself up and keep running.

Sam was anticipating a sly trick. He dodged the arrow enough so that it only caught the sleeve of his perfectly clean cloak. He barreled forward, ripping the fabric carelessly. Sam was trained, fit, fast, well-fed, and angry, and now he was already closing the distance between him and his victim quite quickly, going after Arowin and Chris instead of the Prince due to his fury. Arowin had disappeared into the shadows and Sam followed. He heard heavy footsteps ahead of him, twigs snapping, voices muffled, a cough. Sam had a moment of smugness- his steps were light and quick, carefully avoiding all causes of sound. He was an animal, adapted to the forest. He made a grabbing leap for a tree branch and swung himself high, letting go halfway and sailing through the air to land precariously beside Chris. He made a wild grab, eyes burning crazily, and caught Arowin's arm. He twisted in back harshly, hearing a snap but continuing to put all his strength into it.

Chris spun around, reaching for his sword to defend Arowin, only to remember Sam had taken all his weapons away up at the tree platform. Desperate, he punched at the man and his fist connected with Sam's collarbone. It wouldn't kill him but Sam dropped his hand. The only problem was that now he was going for Chris.

Sam growled, shocked, when Chris knocked the breath out of him with a punch to his collar. He staggered, letting go of Arowin's wrist, and lumbered towards Chris, drawing the dagger back out of his belt. Chris turned and ran, with nothing to defend him against the blade. He ran towards to sunlight, calling out for Arowin to follow. Sam rushed after him, determined to get his side of the deal or kill if he had to.

Chris emerged into the sun, blinking, racing towards Rebecca and the Prince, waving wildly for them to stop. He was regaining his senses and glanced behind him to see if the man was following. He wiped his face and saw blood on his hands.

Prince Stephan saw Chris charging the horse, and squirmed over Rebecca's shoulder to reach the reins. He yanked on them hard, not only stopping but rearing the horse. He cursed and tumbled off it's back, nearly falling to be crushed by it's hooves, and grabbed it's mane for dear life, legs swinging. If he let go, he would land on his back and end up pulling Rebecca with him. He might spook the horse and then none of them would escape.

Sam detoured, swerving and heading for the horse and the Prince.
