In the forest chapter two

(Hi just so everyone knows I may not have all of this as one chapter, I may brake it up into shorter chapters)

Chapter two: A battle with trolls

As Elizabeth walked, she thought about what her brother had said. and his gleaming red eyes, which he wasn’t born with. He had only gotten red eyes when…he had gotten a gift from a wizard. It was a little ring. The wizard had told him that it held great power. Her brother had gotten it, and wore it. then after serval days and months his eyes had began to change from blue to red. and he had gotten less friendly and more full of himself. Elizabeth had tried to talk to her younger brother but failed. he had shut her out of his room. Her other sibling didn’t have much luck trying to talk to her brother. He didn’t answer to any of them, and if he did He would threaten them. Elizabeth serval times had peaked underneath the door to see what he was doing. to her surprise he was looking at himself in the mirror. which he didn’t do…before he had that ring he never cared very much were his crown was on his head or where. “Give this peace treaty to the goblins and trolls, they will be very helpful to me” said Elizabeth’s brother. ‘Goblins? Trolls? what on earth is he doing?’ thought Elizabeth.  the door opened the servant ran down the stairs. The door closed, Elizabeth was surprised and scared at the same time. her brother had never liked trolls or goblins. And form a peace treaty? sure peace treates were normally good. but his “peace treaty” more seemed like , “A joining forces” kind of thing. why would he need goblins and trolls they were so rude and impolite. 
“Elizabeth wait…that is a dangerous part of the forest…” said Maple. “It is?” asked Elizabeth. “Y..yes…” said Maple. Elizabeth hadn’t realized how far she had walked. “Besides the troll fort ,this place is also dangerous…no one who has entered has ever returned…or at least one lucky person has” said Maple. A roar echoed through the forest, “It has picked up are smell , run” shouted Maple. “What? Run? from what?” asked Elizabeth. Maple grabbed Elizabeth by the arm they ran as fast as they could. when they had got to safety which was a camp like place. A few hammocks were tied onto trees (with the dryad’s permission of course)  weapons were lead near some trees.  “Can you tell me what that thing was?” asked Elizabeth. Maple gulped , “We don’t say it’s name. but it has hurt many of us…” said Maple. “Anyway I have to…do something with Sebastian” said Maple and left. Elizabeth starred at the fire , didn’t make sense how could a ring turn someone so…mean? she sighed. a boy with wheat colored hair and emerald eyes sat down beside her. “Hi I believe we met each other in the troll fort, I don’t believe I intruded myself. my name is William ” said the boy.  Elizabeth looked up “oh..I am pleased to meet you, I am Elizabeth. Princess Elizabeth” said Elizabeth. “I have heard about princesses being kidnaped by dragons but never trolls” said William. “Interesting I thought it would be more common” said Elizabeth. “Well…dragons really love princesses” said William. “At least I think…I hope not” mumbled William. “Well..I hope no dragon comes into the forest” said Elizabeth. “Me too..I wouldn’t…I mean I bet you wouldn’t want to be caring off by one” said William. After that long night the next morning Elizabeth woke up in a hammock. “Uh…pirates…help” she mumbled in her sleep. The birds chirped over head. Elizabeth opened her eyes. where was she? where were her maids? oh..right she had been kidnaped by the trolls…. “Good morning” said a filmier voice. Elizabeth turned it was Sebastian . “Sebastian?” asked Elizabeth. “Yes?” asked Sebastian. “what are you—“ asked Elizabeth. “Maple convinced me to uhh…say hi to you and show you more of the forest” said Sebastian.  “Wonderful” said Elizabeth, she slid out of the hammock. As Elizabeth and Sebastian walked around the forest , serval elf’s fired arrows over there heads and hit the targets. “hey” said Elizabeth. “You almost hit us!” she said. “Oh sorry” said The archers. Elizabeth smiled and said “It’s alright , but I doubt you want to kill your healer Sebastian”  joked Elizabeth. Sebastian smiled. as they walked Sebastian pointed out parts of the forest. He passed serval trees and told her about his favorite tree. It was a Oak tree. Were  she first met him yesterday. But he only said one thing about it “It is my favorite climbing tree.” Elizabeth was about to ask why he seemed to really like Oak trees. But Sebastian began talking about the somewhat “War” between good and evil in the forest. “Why don’t you make a peace, with the trolls and goblins” asked Elizabeth. “We have tried that it didn’t end well” said Sebastian. “The trolls nearly hurt Maple , who was trying to end it peacefully. That day made the relationship between the trolls and us worse. Maple was expanding what good it would bring th forest if our war between us was over. The truth is if you try to ask a troll for peace then it will not end well. They through a sword a maple luckily since she is quarter dryad it bounced off. But the trolls would not give up there. Maple was disgusted at the trolls behavior , ‘There will be no throwing weapons’ she said. She was explaining that maybe they would help uprooted trees when a troll through a torch at her (I had no idea how they snuck that in) A dryads really only weakness is fire , Maple gasped ‘you can’t do that , that was angst the rules’ she said. luckily I was there for if I wasn’t Maple would have surly died. After she had recovered , she made it clear that the trolls were dangerous enemies , that couldn’t be befriended” said Sebastian. “All the same but I would rather befriend hobbits then trolls”.  ding gong ding dong a bell interrupted the silence , “What’s that?” asked Elizabeth getting back on her feet “That means enemies are attacking, or there is a intruder or—” said Sebastian. “Enemies??? First thing in the morning?” asked Elizabeth. They ran as fast as they could , “Maple, what’s happening?” asked Sebastian. Maple looked up “what do you mean?” asked Maple. “The bell is ringing” said Sebastian. “Sebastian, I know. BUT I DON’T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON” shouted Maple over the noise. The belle was raining louder serval of the dryad guards ran to the belle to find a young dryad boy pulling it. “Oh…” he said. “Young boy, this bell is only used for when there is danger” said Maple. “Danger…trolls….goblins..boo” he said. “Right…and this is only used for danger” said Maple picking him up. she turned to everyone “False alert” she said. she looked at the boy “do you know where your parents are?” she asked. “Tree” he said. “Could you be more bisect?” asked Maple. “Maple he may be only 30 or 40…he hasn’t learned many words yet” said Sebastian. “Oh and by the way this is Maple and I’m Sebastian” said Sebastian. “What is your name?” asked Maple. “Asssshhh” said the boy. “I know were that is” said Sebastian. “Sebastian there are at least a million ash trees in the forest!!” said Maple. “Right…” mumbled Sebastian. “Well…if he is young we have to find a small ash tree…” thought Maple. “Hello! Dryads and Elves and Fairies of the forest…does anyone here have a child named Ash. If so please come here immediately” said Maple. “Or as soon as possible”. A hour went by no one claimed that they were the parent of Ash. Meanwhile Maple had st with her head in her hands…it didn’t make much sense. Sure not all dryads had parents…as ash was playing around the trees sh e noticed something she hadn’t before…he was wearing a tag made out of a leaf. Sebastian noticed it too. Ash ran over to Maple. On the leafs there was writing:
Please take care of Ash , he no longer has perants. 
thank you. 

Maple and Sebastian were surprised. “He is a orphan” said maple. “Sebastian you need to take care of him for me” she said. “Hey I thought girls took care of—“ said Sebastian, “Never mind”. Sebastian was now responsible for taking care of a little boy. He had no idea what to do ,  also maple had a reason for doing it . she was busy with the war. She didn’t have enough time to take care of a child anyway. How was he ever going to do this?? He turned Ash was gone. In his place were footprints leading to the trolls fort. Sebastian sighed and fellowed the footprints , into the woods. He was going to at least ask someone who was a good Parent for help when he got back. “Ash…oh Ash” he shouted. He looked around this was a huge forest. Where could that little dryad be. ‘He could be hiding in those pile of leafs’ thought Sebastian the moment his foot touched it the leafs collapsed and Sebastian fell in with them, Everything went black. When he opened his eyes he found himself hanging upside down. from a tree, Serval trolls were discussing what to do with him. Some suggesting something that sounded like throwing porky-pine quills at him, it did not sound fun. Others suggested eating him alive. and a few suggested baking him or squishing him into Jelly. Sebastian started to feel sick maybe it was because he was being hanged upside down from the tree or it was because trolls were talking about horrible things to do to him. Either way he was not having fun, at all. Sebastian tried to undo the rope it did not work. “Let’s eat him, now” he heard a troll say. “Uhh…Don’t eat me…if you eat me you will have no one to give to whoever you work…for..whoever they are” said Sebastian nervously. The trolls laughed “The king said we could eat you..you are very important the person we need is Magle” said the trolls. Sebastian crossed his arms , “What if one of your troll…knight..thinglys gets hurt…Then I can heal them if you would let me go” said Sebastian. “Way have no ..Wound’t guard-trolls” said a troll. “Well…how about a contest, if I lose you eat me (which I can already tell you want to do) and if I win you let me go” said Sebastian. “What kind of contest though” asked the trolls. Sebastian thought for a moment..what was he good at..healing…Archery. Archery! “A archery contest…the rules are: No cheating…don’t kill anyone and just shoot the arrows at the target..Understand?” asked Sebastian. “Do you have any bow or arrows or targets handy?” asked Sebastian. The trolls nodded , they got some bow and arrows that looked to be made out of a thorn bush. and some nasty looking targets. Unfortunately the trolls didn’t untie Sebastian , but he could work with that. First a troll who looked very nasty (I will not describe the nastiness of him) Got out his arrow. and so did Sebastian who had somehow managed to stop his arrows from falling off. Sebastian looked at the target, and when the troll and him let the arrows go..Sebastian’s arrow went right through the trolls arrow and hit the target. The troll Grumbled and the next troll came and then the next and the next Sebastian deafened all of them. then the troll who was said to be the most powerful person stepped up He eyed Sebastian , Sebastian could feel the sweat going down his neck, Which felt odd because he was upside down. “Uhh…Hi” said Sebastian nervously , he didn’t know what to say to the troll. The troll took a arrow out of his quiver “Archers start” shouted a troll in a gruff voice. Sebastian took out his arrow and shot at the target but his arrow was completely knocked out of the air by the warrior troll’s arrow. 
“That was cheating” shouted Sebastian. But the other trolls just looked hungrily at him. They ran off to get the ingredients , Sebastian sighed the troll warrior had not won fair and square. Of course you can not trust trolls. He realized something the trolls had for some reason overlooked his dagger, Ha. Yes he could use it to cut the rope , but there was a problem if he cut the rope he would land head first on the ground. So maybe if swung over to one of the branches of the tree then cut the rope that could possibly work. But he wasn't taking chances , he could be eaten by trolls, or Escape and not get eaten by a troll. or possible hurt himself badly.  he shook the last idea out of his head , At least he was going to try it. If he failed then Good bye world. He sang himself over to one of the branches which worked thankfully. He got out of dagger and began cutting the rope as quickly as he could. The rope fell to the ground , Sebastian grabbed the branch and climbed down and ran as quickly as he could away from the fort. When he was out of seeing distance from the fort he sat down. There was a problem he didn’t know were he was in the troll territory or where it ended. He heard foot steps behind of him quickly Sebastian swung himself into one of the trees. Serval nasty trolls pasted by sniffing the air. Sebastian guessed they were looking for him. The trolls passed not noticing him . He sighed in relief. wherever he was he hoped someone would notice that he was missing. Maple twisted a peace of her blond hair ‘Were is Sebastian?” she thought. She had looked Sebastian was very much. Missing, “Send a search party to find them”  said Maple , suddenly the leafs began to rustle and Ash appeared. “Ash where is Sebastian?” asked Maple. “Trolls” he said. Maple’s face went pale. “Oh no…” she said. and went over to the party of searchers, “Sebastian has been Kidnaped by trolls” she said. Everyone gasped. “I know but you must look for him, far and wide I will come with you, Elizabeth and William take care of Ash for me” said Maple. And left with the search party. As they traveled through the forest Maple got a bad feeling that trolls were watching. She could see gleaming eyes in the bushes and trees. She gulped. Maybe they had eaten Sebastian , if they did then…shook that thought out of her head. She sighed it was to much to handle with monsters watching. Sebastian was still in the tree , he sat there and waited and waited. Maybe no one would notice him , or He would die of starvation . Sebastian suddenly realized he was hungry luckily he was up in a tree with fruit in it. Ripe juicy looking fruit. He grabbed one and took a bite. It tasted terrible. He spat it out, Okay maybe he would die of starvation
Maple looked around and called out Sebastian’s name. There was no reply , only the still darkness of the forest. “SEBASTIAN” shouted Maple she shouted as loud as she could. if Sebastian was dead then she would never babysit again!! there wads a still silence then out of the darks of the forest…“I’m here” came a reply. Sebastian sat on the tree on there was a swarm of Trolls around the tree, fortunately the tree was tall but unfortunately the goblins where planning to set it on fire and eat Sebastian. Sebastian on the other hand had been trying to ,make excuses on why they shouldn’t set the tree on fire. But the trolls kept, running around the tree , flawing their torches about. Sebastian to keep the trolls away made a anteing of leafs. Fortunately the leafs fell on the trolls unfortunately  the trolls where carrying torches so a fire of leafs sprang up. Fire…Sebastian gulped he held onto the tree branch. More trolls can around. From the distance Maple could see a light in the forest..it was very unusual , of course. Hardly any light came into this part of the forest unless the trolls where cooking there dinner which I do not want to talk about it is to gruesome…anyway maple fellowed the light maybe…they where cooking Sebastian and she would have time to rescue him, somehow. For instance tell those trolls that , Sebastian had a contagious cold. Maple kicked her horse and fellowed the light as she got there she found that there was a blazing light and more trolls…the trolls had managed to handle the fire somehow….and where trying to cut down the tree, Sebastian was trying as hard as he could to hold on. The truth was the trolls where shaking the tree and singing a song that I will not repeat (Because it was raver rude and not drawing room manor of talking.) Maple brought out one of her arrows , and shoot it at a near by tree, trying to get the trolls attention. (She would apologize to the dryad as soon as she could). The trolls turned around and noticed a little blond haired girl with pointy ears. The trolls took out there “Swords” really pointy jagged thing. And started trying to dwell Maple. Sebastian who was hanging on the branch which was getting very close to the fire , felt as if he was going to loose his grip. Maple was almost being beaten by a big scary ugly looking troll , She let out one word “Help” . when the other searchers heard that word they jumped out weapons ready and battled the other trolls. Sebastian felt his grip loosing d and he fell through the air , suddenly through the air a girl with bright red hair caught him in midair. As the battle was ragging she whispered a quite word in his ear, “Everything's , all right…”. She brushed a peace of brown hair out of his face. Maple was doing much better with the battle she had completely defeated the troll, and deafened serval other trolls. When Sebastian opened his eyes he found himself in a bed..where Maple..William (Valentina.) and Princess Elizabeth . where looking over him . “Are you alright Sebastian?” asked Maple. “Yes….I’m fine..But I almost got eaten by trolls” he answered.

In the forest chapter one

Chapter one: A unexpected adventure

there lived a princess with hair the color of a wheat field , and eyes the color of emeralds.
she was famous through out the land for her talent of Archery. 
she could beat every prince or commoner. she always shot a bulls eye and never missed. it happened her name was Valentina
Valentina was not fond of sitting in the castle and sewing she preferred , hunting the woods. 
Valentina was hunting in the woods one day it happened to be very windy but it didn’t bother Valentina, when a peace of paper blew 
into her face as she was about to fire one of her arrows.  her arrow hit a near by tree. Valentina sighed “I would have gotten my arrow on the target , If this peace of paper hadn’t hit me in the face” she said. and grabbed the peace of paper. she was about to just let the wind take it again when she noticed something she hadn’t noticed before. there was writing . on it was written: Prince is being kinged. 
Valentina consider that uninteresting any prince could be kinged at anytime..how uninteresting. as you was about to keep hunting like nothing happened she noticed something odd beneath the words 

Because of the disappearance of his sister Princess Elizabeth. he is taking his place on the throne…
, Now as it happened the night before Princess Elizabeth had been reading. a book a very adventurous book about a princess being kidnaped and a prince rescuing her. when out of the blue a bag fell on her head and she couldn’t see a thing “got her your highness” said someone tuff and unfriendly. “Help” shouted Princess Elizabeth though she really didn’t want people to think she was helpless and have a prince rescue her . but her voice came out muffled and not heard very much by the guards for her guards had been put to sleep with a sleeping potion. “Whoever you are let me go” said Princess Elizabeth. “Oh sister you can be so angry, but your rage won’t stop me” said a very familiar and cold voice. “Why are you doing this?” asked Princess Elizabeth.  “Oh no reason..actually I have a reason you are going to be crowned” said her brother coldly. “What…why would you want this?” asked Princess Elizabeth. “no more questions” said her brother. “We have to go” whispered her brother. 
That cold night two riders mysteriously had gone for the forest. who you probably might already know were the prince and his “Body-guard” who really as just a helper of the prince. when they had gotten to the forest they pushed Princess Elizabeth into the forest and took of the bag that was on her head. and left her… 

Valentina put the peace of paper in the pocket. and was about to keep hunting when…”Your highness..the king wants you to come , now” said a servant. “If my father wants me tell him to come to me” said Valentina. “But Princess Valentina , he commands you to come” said the servant. Valentina sighed she knew if her father commanded her come she had to obey his orders. Valentina went reliantly to the castle. When she got there her father was sitting on his throne. “May I asked why to come” said Valentina. “Oh because you have suitors” said the king. “But father I…” said Valentina. “No..no to meet the suitors” said her father. 
“But first change your cloths” he added. “Father!” said Valentina. but went reluctantly to change . She came back dressed in a long purple gown and had tied her long wheat colored hair into a braid , She walked into the room were the suitors were going to woe her, “Hello princes from distend kingdoms…” said Valentina. “Oh beautiful Valentina will though marry me”  said a prince. Valentina sighed , “Prince of some land I do not know of the answer is NO” said Valentina. “Actually that does rhyme” said a Prince. Valentina sighed if her father had asked her first weather she felt ready to get married then she would have not have theses suitors come. The day past Valentina was very unhappily. At the end of the day Valentina flopped onto her bed exhausted , she had refused all the suitors and more would probably come tomorrow unless… she ran away , if she ran away then there would be no one asking to marry her  but they would know who she was but they wouldn’t  if she dressed up as a boy! Perfect!!!  Valentina crept down to the servants quarters and grabbed one of a servant’s cloths. Then she went up stairs to her room  got dressed in the servant’s cloths, grabbed the hat that was in the pill of cloths one of the servants had put her hair in a bun (She didn’t dare cut it) put the hat over the bun and gazed at herself in the mirror , she looked just like a boy. she realized something she couldn’t go around saying her name was Valentina , for that was a girls name she needed a boy name. But first she had to escape without anyone knowing , Valentina climbed out the window and landed, thump!!! on the ground. She ran away from the castle. she headed toward the forest  it was known to be dangerous. luckily she had her arrows in the bag she was holding.  she went into it she knew no one would look for her there. She walked in , animal noises were everywhere. “Halt” said a voice. Valentina turned , a girl with pointed ears was holding a bow , and it was pointed at her. “No one shall cross” said the girl. “I happen to be run—“ said Valentina. “No trespassing” said the girl. “One step further and I will fire” said the eleven girl. “May I plea-“ said Valentina. “No” said the girl. “You didn’t even let me finish, may I please come through I happen to be running away..” said Valentina. “Why are you running away?” asked the girl. “I…none of you business” said Valentina. “Well then I will fire” said the girl. “Wait..I had to because I…uhh..Long story. I didn’t mean to trespass , I thought no one but animals and dryads lived in the forest. sorry for trespassing, also the taxes were getting to high” said Valentina. The lowered her bow. “you may pass” said the girl.  “My name is Maple” said the girl. “What is yours?” she asked. now Valentina hadn’t thought of a name because , she hadn’t thought of it. she gulped and said “William” it happened to be the name of one of the servants. and the one she had taken the cloths of. “Well William, welcome to the forest” said the girl. “Thank you” said Valentina.  she turned the girl was gone. so Valentina , explored the forest , it seemed less dangerous and  more welcoming. 
squirrels scampered down from the trees, birds singed. the tress leaves blew in the wind how could this be called a dangerous forest? a scream echoed through the forest, ok maybe it was dangerous. “Did you hear that?” asked Maple who has appeared out of no where . “Agh” , Valentina stammered. “I mean I did” said Valentina. “It seems to be coming into the deep part of the forest” said Maple. “Were the trolls live” she said. “Trolls?” asked Valentina. “There are other creatures in this forest besides us you know” said Maple. “Us? there is more then one of us?” asked Valentina. “Yes there is now be quite” whispered Maple. Serval trolls went walking by , they didn’t seem to notice Maple or Valentina. “Alright..hold this dagger” said Maple handing the dagger to Valentina. “And fellow me”. “You are just going to barge in?” asked Valentina. “Yes, these trolls are our enemies” said Maple. “Now come on”. Maple looked around for trolls then pushed the door open of the small almost falling down cottage , “Maple…uhh..before you..open the door..I think should turn around” Valentina  stammered. “There is a t-r-o-l-l”. Maple turned around to see a troll pointing arrow at them. Maple got out one of her arrows and shot it struck the troll who immediately fell down. “Now go” said Maple. pushing Valentina and herself through the door. “Alright we are safe in a troll’s cottage” mumbled Maple. Arrows shot through the door. “You call this safe?” asked Valentina. a few mort arrows almost shot them in the head. Maple pulled out her arrow and shot serval other trolls all with one arrow. “Anyway whoever is in here please uhh..just call out” Stammered Maple. A muffled voice echoed through the cottage. “Alright we are coming” shouted Valentina. “Just in case , hold your weapons at a ready” said Maple. they stepped quietly more into the cottage and found a girl who was lying on the ground tied up. She didn’t look dangerous. well…maybe from the outside. “Met be ot” she said , her voice was quite muffled so that what they could hear. Maple got out of pocket knife and began to cut the rope. soon  the ropes fell down and her hands and feet were free , the girl seemed scared she was breathing heavily. there were serval loud knocks on the door, “You can’t hold them off forever. You have to go now and leave me behind, I will only slow you down” said the girl. “I am defiantly not , leaving you behind” said Maple as serval trolls tried to come in she shot them with her arrows. “We have to go now, and I am taking you whatever you say” said Maple. she grabbed the girls hand and they jumped out the cottage window. Valentina brought out her bow and arrows and began shooting at the trolls , none of them missed the trolls. “William , we have to go now!!” shouted Maple. “Oh…” mumbled Valentina. she ran to the window and jumped . she fell somewhat gracefully down. onto the ground. “Now we need to run, William . if we don’t the trolls will get us” said Maple. she didn’t seem to notice that Valentina was wearing a quiver or holding a bow. but they ran as fast as they could away from the trolls, serval arrows hit trees. as they ran through the forest. Finally , they reached safety. Valentina and the girl was out of breath they had run very far into the forest. Valentina  looked at maple , maple was standing up and into look out of breath at all. “The trolls , never will come here. it is the territory of white magic” said Maple. “Trolls can’t stand white magic”. “Now we should get you, to some help” said Maple, starring down at the girl she had serval scratches. “no I’m fine…it was my brothers fault…” she mumbled. Maple eyed her , what on earth did she mean by by it being “My brother’s fault”? “are you sure?” said Maple. “No I’m completely fine” said the girl she walked away..
“I’m going to leave this forest now” she grumbled. Maple was shocked , no one had ever left the forest since….Sebastian came (more about him later) “You can’t then entrances and exits are blocked off by trolls!!!” said Maple. the girl turned around her eyes were full of fear. “Trolls” she said. “Yes. And they will kill you if you try to pass” said Maple. “Alright I understand, already” the girl said. “Sorry…just I don’t want anyone to be hurt..again” said Maple in a soft voice. “Anyway..I think I know someone who can heal those scratches” said Maple. She took the girl by the hand. “I might have ask your name before..but may I ask what is it?” asked Maple. “e-Elizabeth” said the girl. “Greeting Elizabeth, I’m Maple” said Maple. they continued , there walk until they came to a clearing. there sat a boy with brownish reddish hair sharpening his sword , he didn’t look up straight away when Maple sat down next to him. there was a still silence..everyone was quite until“SEBASTIAN!” shouted Maple finally. Sebastian, he jumped a little out of shock and almost fell over luckily maple caught him , before he fell over. “sorry for startling you but, I have someone who needs to be healed” said Maple. “At least you could’v tapped me on the shoulder or something instead of shouting my name very loudly…plus I was sharpening a sword do you know how dangerous—“ said Sebastian. “yes I do, but Sebastian I really need you to heal, Elizabeth” said Maple. “The last time I healed someone they turned out to be a troll in disguise” Sebastian mumbled. “Uhh..about that..I promise that won’t happen again..” said Maple. “how do I know she isn’t a troll?” asked Sebastian. “uhh…she looks human” said Maple. “no were did you rescue her from?” asked Sebastian. “A troll fort…” said Maple shifted foot to foot. “Last time you brought someone to me , they had been ‘rescued’ from the troll fort…really they were a spy—“ said Sebastian. “I know, and I promise she is not..one” said Maple. “you said that last time” said Sebastian. “uhh..yes but I am pretty sure she is not a troll have you ever heard a troll pronounce names right? they pronounce my name ‘Magle’ and yours ‘Subustesten’” said Maple. Sebastian slapped his hand on his head, “maple could you please stop” said Sebastian. “Yes…but at least let Elizabeth speak” said Maple Elizabeth cleared her throat. “I was thrown out by a brother…and I am really a princess..I am Princess Elizabeth” said Elizabeth. Sebastian raised his eyebrow. “Alright…I guess you have proved you are not a troll” he said. he reached into his pocket and brought out some leafs which looked plain and not very magical. “Please give me your arm” said Sebastian.  Elizabeth gave Sebastian her arm he rubbed the leaves on it, her arm started to tingle and the scratch disappeared . she looked down at the pother scratches and bites they were gone too. “Uhh..thank you” said Elizabeth. 
“You are welcome” said Sebastian, and
continued to sharpen his sword. “Come on we have more to see” said Maple. as they walked , she noticed Elizabeth was being very quite. maybe it was because she had almost been killed by trolls, or it could be because Sebastian had said something that upset her. Sebastian was really nice half dryad but he was always sad no one really knew why, if they asked Sebastian would change the subject. “Did my cousin say anything to you that upset you?” asked Maple. Elizabeth gave her a glance. 

“No, he didn’t…he didn’t say anything that upset me” said Elizabeth. and walked away.
