Liz woke up to being tied to a tree. She could feel the blood that had dried on her face and the pain from the cut. She saw Matthew talking to what to her looked like a talking bull. They walked into the tent. A cool breeze came in the air. It make Liz shiver. All she could think about was getting out and telling the other about the plans that the White Witch followers had come up with but first she needed to get out of the ropes and get the plans. There was nothing sharp around her and she had dropped dagger. For now she would have to wait and see what would happen. After a few minutes of sitting and thinking about what to do, Matthew and the bull man came out and looked at Liz. Her gut turned. She knew something bad was about to happen. They walked over to her. The bull man grabbed her and picked her up. They began to walk to the tent they had come from. Liz wanted to fight but she knew it was a bad idea, but she began to think of a way to get out. When the entered the tent there was ice up to the top of the tent and a woman standing there. It was the White Witch.

" Matthew you know what to do," She said. Matthew walked over to her, took out his dagger, and reopened her cut. Pain ran through her and she fell down to the ground wanting to hold the right side of her face but couldn't. Matthew walked over to her and said while taking some of her blood,

" Your lucky I only got from your nose to your chin other wise you would have a cut across your whole face." Liz wanted to punch him so bad, but of course she couldn't. Matthew walked over to where the White Witch had her hand extended. Matthew placed the blood from Liz on her hand. She smiled and said,

" Now we just need the blood of Adam."

" You will never succeed," Liz said to her standing up. Matthew walked over to her and slapped her across the face. Liz gasped. She had had enough. She may not of had her hands but she still had her legs. She kick Matthew in the place the hurts and pulled the bull man down where she quickly cut the rope that tired her hands. Liz needed to get out and fast. The bull man began to charge after her. Liz couldn't get out because Matthew was blocking the door. Liz saw the staff which powered the White Witch and took it out of the ground and stabbed the bull man, who turned to stone. The White Witch was gone and I was only Matthew and her.

" Don't make me kill you," Matthew said.

" I would like to see you try," said Liz. Matthew smiled and then throw one of his daggers at her. She dodged it. She saw her chance to escape. She took the staff an cut open the side of the tent and took off running, but stopped when she felt a sharp pain in the back of her leg. She looked and saw Matthew standing with no dagger in his hand then looked at her leg and saw the dagger in the back of her leg. She pulled it out and through it at Matthew, who was walking her way. It cut his arm enough for him to stop. She took some of her sleeve, rapped her leg, and lipped off as fast as she could.

James, Richard, and Nicholas all set out to find Liz. They used a blood hound to tract her scent and it wasn't long before the blood hound was off running. James, Richard, and Nicholas followed closely behind on their horses. After a while, the dog stopped and turned into the woods. They followed him until he stooped. They saw someone lipping. Richard jumped off his horse and ran toward the person. It was Liz. Richard grabbed her and laid her down.

" Liz, can you hear me?" asked Richard.

" Yes," Liz said in a weak voice. James and Nicholas joined Richard.

" What happened?" James asked.

" Will find out when we get back to the castle and if we don't quickly we could lose her. She has lost a lot of blood," said Nicholas. They all started to walking back to their horses, Liz looked at Richard and smiled. He looked back at her, brushed her hair back, and kissed her forehead. After that Liz passed out. Richard got on his horse and James handed Liz to him. After James mounted his horse they took off as fast as they couldn't without dropping Liz.
