Chapter One
The breeze brought a sudden chill up her back as she walked along a cobblestone path. The cobblestones were uneven and leveled differently so she had to walk slowly and cautiously in the darkness. Although she couldn't see anything, her pale blue eyes darted back and forth. The road was unfamiliar to her and the only things giving off light were the few dim street lights. "Samantha" she called in a hushed voice. "Samantha we have to go now. They're looking for us." her voice was still low but not as calm. A loud, high pitched, scream came from what she thought was an alley. It wasn't very far so she began to worry. "I think I see her!" A man called. Spots of light were strewn across the path behind her and were coming closer. "That's not her!" A woman called. "Yes it is. I'm sure of it" the man replied. "The girl had a friend with her. This ones all alone." "I had someone take care of that." Serenity's pace became faster and she began to sprint. A hand grabbed her firmly around her bicep and pulled her into a bush. The bush had thorns and it cut her bare skin. The opposite hand cupped her mouth and he sat there silently. She didn't argue. She didn't even bother to squirm free. He wasn't hurting her so she became quiet. She winced in pain as one of the thorns cut into her leg, but she didn't let out a sound.
