Thank you for coming, Lady Regina. It really means the world to me. Please tell your brother that we hope the he gets well. the little old lady came over to the table and poured her Masters sister some more tea.
You are so very welcome, Ms. Sara. My mother was a little worried, because she had not heard anything from him, in over a week. Lady Regina smiled at the older lady, who was like another mother to her.
I do believe he said that he was going hunting. The strange thing is, he did not take anyone with him. Oh, and your father called last night. He said that they were tracking a ship last night, but they lost it, when the meteor shower started earlier this morning. Ms. Sara picked up the empty plate that was in middle of the table.
Really? Then, I need to go and tell Phyllyp to keep an eye open, when he and his men are out hunting. That does sound very odd, that he would do something like that. Oh dear, I really must start heading home, before it gets dark. Lady Regina looked at her time piece and realized it was late afternoon.
Oh dear, you are right. You do not want to be traveling through the forest, after the sun goes down. Ms. Sara also realized the time too.
Lady Regina got up from the table and gave the older lady a hug, before walking out of the kitchen. She headed to the rooms that she was using, while she was visiting her family.
Milady, everything is ready and they have loaded up the last trunk. All the men are waiting for us outside. Lady Reginas servant told her, as she picked up the cloak that was laying on the bed.
Oh sorry, about leaving so late and it was mostly my fault. It was very good to sleep in today, mostly after being up most of the night, for the past three days. Lady Regina yawned, as she put on her cloak that the servant held out to her.
Yes, it has been a very pretty rough three nights, but Lady Daphine now has a very beautiful daughter. Therssa nodded, as she helped her Mistress put on her cloak, before putting on her own cloak.
They walked out of the huge hut and came up to the waiting horses. One of the footmen came up to Lady Regina and helped her up onto her horse. Once she was on the horse, the small group began to head out of the village and head for the forest. Five hours later, the small party was only three miles from their village, when the noise that they had been hearing off in the forest, was now coming closer to them.
That does not sound like an animal call, Milady. I have this very bad feeling that we are being followed. one of the men looked around, as he rode next to Lady Regina.
Yes, I know. Whatever it is, it has been following us for about twenty minutes now . . . What the! Lady Regina cried out, as there was a sound of an arrow slicing through the air. It hit and killed the man that was sitting right beside her.
That was when the attack happened and before Lady Regina could take off and find a place to hide, she was grabbed from behind. She was pulled down off her horse and pulled onto another horse. She was carried away from the bloody scene. Her and her captives headed deeper into the forest.
It was thirty minutes later, when they came up to a clearing, to where a ship was waiting for them. Getting off the horse, the man that she was riding in front of, grabbed her by the arm and pulled her into the ship. Once inside the ship, it lifted off the ground and headed for space. The man that was pulling Lady Regina pushed her down to the floor, where another man was waiting for them.
You do know that you are going to be in trouble for doing this. Lady Regina tried to pull away from the two men ,who were holding her down by the shoulders, as they face their boss.
Good work men. Now, Lord Phyllyp will pay dearly to get you back, Milady. the leader turned from the viewport and looked at his new prisoner.
You are going to be very sorry for kidnapping me! Oh my, Sir Proteus! Lady Regina felt fear run through her body, as she came face to face with her captor.
Oh no, my dear. That is where you are so very wrong. It is you and your family that will be very sorry. Take her to the room. Sir Proteus glared at the woman and order his two men to take her to the room that they had ready for her.

My Lord! Come quick! We have a single figure coming towards the gate! Aelbert yelled out to Lord Melrey, who was now pacing back and forth, because Lady Regina was very late, in returning back from the neighboring village.
Lord Phyllyp ran up the stairs and was up on the wall, looking down at the lone figure. Then, he noticed that it was Lady Reginas lady servant and she was all bloody.
Open the gates now! Lord Phyllyp yelled out, as he ran back down the stairs.
Once the gates were opened up, Lord Phyllyp and two men ran out of the gates and up to the young girl, who had stumbled and was falling down towards the ground.
Penny, where is Lady Regina? Lord Phyllyp caught the young girl, just as she began falling down to the ground.
We were attacked by six armed men . . . They killed everyone . . . They took Lady Regina. the young girl told her Master, before passing out.
No! Take her to her room and have Mrs. Heydi look at her. I am going to gather up the men and we are going after them. Lord Phyllyp picked up the girl and handed her over to his commander. Then, he rushed back inside the gates and had them blow the emergency horn.
Twenty minutes later, twelve men rode out of the village, in search of Lady Regina and the men who took her.
