( That was good, don't worry about it! )

As the woman approached her leisurely Emily's fear grew and when the woman finally stood mere inches away from herself she felt hot. Inside her chest her heart beat quickened and inside her mind was a mess. She had known that something was off from the very beginning but she could quite what exactly was off, of course she had never expected this. To be lured into an alley in the middle of nowhere, the child that she had protected to be one risen from the dead to simply trick her and to now be trapped between two unfamiliar, seemingly unfriendly Elves. The woman who stood before her appeared to be a hunter, perhaps hired to track down Emily by the Queen or someone else.

Emily knew that even if she asked she would not receive an answer but the question still escaped her. "What is the purpose of this? Who has hired you?" She said with as much confidence as she could, behind her the man laughed and the woman brought a hand just under Emily's chin. "My dear, what a mouth on this one. If you speak to me like that again I may just cut out your tongue! Though I don't think that would go very well.. I was told to bring you back in one piece." Emily froze when the woman touched her and her eyes grew wide when she spoke. "What a pretty one you are! No wonder he has his eye on you.. And your presence.." Her eyes closed and she seemed pleased. "I am certain that you are the one and if you would like to remain alive you should cooperate, alright?"

The woman took a step back from her then looked up at the man. "Make sure to have a good hold on her, it took me very long to find her and I do not want to have to explain that she escaped." She hissed then she returned her gaze to Emily. "Now... what to do about that friend of yours?" She paused for a moment and hummed softly to herself. "Ah.. I think that the others will be plenty to distract him." She said then snapped her fingers. "Now, let's be off in a hurry! We don't want you to be late, Princess!" Emily wanted to resist the man as he took hold of her but found that fighting would be no good, she had not trained enough to know everything about her abilities and using them could possibly cause her to lose control of herself. Instead she cooperated, for now, and allowed these two to escort her out of the village. The man forced her to sit upon a horse then climbed onto it as well, he sat behind her with his arms around her to prevent her from trying to flee. When the woman climbed onto her own horse she spoke briefly to the man in a language that Emily could not comprehend, then they left. As they left she could hear noise from the village and she feared the worse.
