Um, I don't know. Anyone really could talk to Jack, about anything that you can think of. Alsan isn't there at the moment, nor is Leila. But she might go and tell them about her plan later

Yay!

Alina nodded and left the room in a rush to the kitchen and found a bucket and filled it with water and grabbed a scrubbing brush. She hurried back to her master's room and crouched down and started scrubbing away at the mud. She wondered who on earth could have left the scuff mark, she didn't wear shoes and none of the women did. Her master would never walk through mud, so who could have possibly left it. The men wouldn't dare come into her master's lodgings. Alina froze at the thought that entered her mind, a stowaway! Alina realized she had frozen and quickly went back to work. She did not want to alert her master at all, it was not her place and he often took out his rages on the barer of bad news. Alina's mind drifted back to the cells to their captives. Why had they been so eager to turn the offer down, too proud and true. Alina finished cleaning up and carried the dirty water away back to the kitchens and then returned to her master's lodgings and stood silently and unmoving in a corner. If he wanted something he would command her so forth and if he didn't he might dismiss her.

Arowin rode at a slow trot before deciding to hurry along. Better to have explored the town on her own well before Alstwin awoke and came after her. After a while of traveling she reached the huge pit just before the town and reined in her horse. The marks on the floor told the story loud and clearly of how her family had been captured so brutally. Up ahead lay the town, some buildings still smoking, some, strangely untouched. Arowin dismounted and tied Ace up to a nearby tree before setting into the town on foot and going from house to house searching for survivors. Many lay slain in heaps throughout the port but Arowin heeded the dead no attention.

(I dunno what to post for Em. Sorry if it doesn't fit but here goes nothing xD)

Emerald leaned back against the wooden wall at the back of the cell, the wood cold from being in the dark cold room. The cold sent goosebumps down Em's back but she barely noticed them. She sat with her knees propped up and her elbows resting on them, just staring off into nowhere. "How can we get out of here?" she muttered quietly to herself, her eyebrows furrowing in thought. All of her hairpins were in the wagon which--sadly--had been left in the pit. No hairpins, no lock picking. But what else could they pick the locks with? There were no sticks on the boat and the only other piece of jewelry Em had was Casper's necklace. The thin gold chain couldn't pick a lock even if it were magic. But then all the sudden an idea popped into her head, one that made her hopeful and afraid at the same time. Her hand flew to the emerald pendant that dangled on the chain, her hand closing around it. Could she trade the necklace for their freedom? Surely it was as valuable as a good amount of slaves. But if she offered Alsan the offer, would he refuse it? And if he did refuse he might still take the necklace, something Emerald didn't want to have taken from her. If she was giving it to him, at least it would be of her own free will and not snatched from her like some toy. But if she gave him the necklace, she lost the only piece of Casper she had left. She'd left his grave, his things, all the places they shared together, back in England and as far as she knew she wouldn't ever be able to return. The necklace was all she had left. But if it could get them their freedom, she'd have to try. She stood up and walked over to the bars at the front of the cell, shaking them and calling out to Alsan.

Alstwin woke up though kept his eyes closed, not wanting to meet the dawn of day just yet. He extended his arm, expecting to throw it over Arrowin, when it fell onto the floor. He opened his eyes then and it took a moment for his foggy mind to realize Arrowin wasn't there. And neither was her horse. He muttered curses under his breath and scrambled to his feet, grabbing his ax and tugging on his boots. It wasn't long to find the first few foot prints and once he did he just followed them, realizing she was heading to town. He ran the rest of the way, slowing to a walk once he reached the village though his panicking heart didn't slow a bit. What if the people who captured the Hood found her? What if they captured her, or abused her? Or worse, killed her? "Arrowin!" he called out softly, not wanting to alert anyone that he was here but wanting to find Arrowin.

Arowin cringed slightly as she heard the voice from outside calling her, she hoped that he wouldn't be too mad at her. Arowin stuck her head around the door of the pub. "There is no one here Alstwin, they left last night already." she said sadly and stepped out and sat on the wooden steps of the porch, nearby Ace stood happily pulling at the leaves of a tree, unaware of the sorrow that took place here. Arowin didn't even try to explain herself, she knew that Alstwin knew well enough why she had come. She needed to know where they where taking The Hood, the only family she had left on his earth. "Everyone in this town is dead, not a single living soul, there was even a dead knight and I doubt that he was killed by the Hood, way too far into town. The Hood never made it passed that pit over there." she said motioning towards the huge pitt in the middle of the road.

Alstwin turned his head when he heard Arrowin and he ran up to her, wrapping his arms around her and hugging her tight. "Don't run off like that." he whispered into her hair, frowning. He sighed then and loosened his bear hug just a little. "I'm glad you're safe. And I'm sorry about your friends." He rubbed her back, looking around at the half destroyed village. He didn't want to say it, but he knew they'd probably never find the Hood. They could be anywhere by now. Even when they did get to France how were they supposed to find them? "If it makes any difference, I don't think they're dead. They're too strong for that."

[VanWen]

Arowin was surprised to see no anger and gladly returned his hug. "I'm sorry, I had to come." she explained and rested her head on his shoulder. "Where do we go from here? I don't know what that cruel man will even do with them. It's impossible to track his ship and I don't think we will ever see them again..." she whispered holding down tears. It was time to face it, she had lost the Hood forever, whether she wanted to or not, there was no going back. Maybe they should just head to France and speak with the king as planed or maybe they should just buy a small house and move on, start their family in a small town. She knew that no matter what she would never be truly happy until she knew what became of the Hood.
