Maven smiled as Alton went off to gather wood for a fire. He took hold of the reigns on his horse with one hand then used his other hand to take hold of the rope being used to keep Emily's wrists together. Maven stopped underneath a rather large tree, using all of his strength he tossed Emily to the ground. "Stay there, if you even try to escape then I will beat you until you are nothing but black and blue." he hissed, Maven then went to the side of his horse. He began to take out supplies to put up two tents, Emily watched him quietly as he did so. Her mind was restless, she kept thinking about how she could escape.

Once he had finished putting the tents up he walked back over to Emily who still remained on the ground. "Now it seems that we have some alone time together, doesn't it?" a laugh escaped from his lips, he eyes wandered over the young woman who seemed helpless. "I think that I'm going to have some fun with you before Alton returns with the wood." Emily opened her mouth to release a scream though it was muffled as Maven placed a firm hand over her mouth. She squirmed as she felt his body against his, the feeling of his other hand running up her leg made her quiver. "If you keep quiet then maybe I will not beat you." Maven removed his hand from her mouth, he leaned down to place a rough kiss against her lips. Emily turned her head avoiding it. "No!" she yelled, she pressed her hands against his chest in an attempt to push him off of herself. "Get off of me you bastard!" Maven laughed at her comment, he brought the hand that he had held over her mouth under her chin. Emily whimpered as she felt his lips running up the side of her neck then to her cheek.

"Please, don't do this!" she pleaded, she slammed her hands against his chest. Maven pulled his lips away from her, his breath was incredibly hot against her face. "If you don't shut your mouth then I'm going to have to gag you," he hissed the words out, a laugh shortly followed. "Though I would rather be able to hear you during this." he whispered quietly into her ear. This was possibly Maven's favorite part about capturing women, especially attractive woman who appealed to him. The feeling of her soft skin was almost unbearable, he knew that he was going to enjoy this greatly.

His hand wandered further up her leg, it lingered just underneath her dress for a moment before he started to slowly move it upwards. "Leave me alone!" Emily cried as she felt Maven's lips growing close to her own. A heavy sigh escaped from his lips when she spoke again. "I told you to shut your damn mouth, you-" a sudden noise caught his attention. He brought his hand from her thigh to his side where he had a weapon. "What the hell was that?" he barked loudly, he looked up from the young woman under him. Maven's eyes searched the area around him for what had made such a noise.

Emily looked around cautiously wondering what had made the noise as well, though it wasn't a terrible thing. It had distracted Maven from what he had planned to do. As he began to lift himself off of her she brought her knee upwards and slammed it against his stomach as hard as she could. He flinched from the sudden hit, he brought his hand to where she had struck him. Maven reached out a hand to grab her by the neck though suddenly something wrapped around his wrist quickly. Both looked up at the sudden object in alarm, it was a branch from the tree they were under. Maven tore his blade from his side to hack the branch off though as he lifted his arm another branch shot out and took hold of his free wrist. "You little bitch, you're using your powers!" he hissed, he should have known better.

Maven attempted to pull himself free from the tree though he simply could not. "Release me now!" he barked, Emily squirmed out from under him then brought herself to her knees quickly. When Maven attempted to kick her she quickly moved away from him. Emily's eyes watched him for a moment, her powers? She had never been able to use them like this before. "No!" she yelled at him, she began to walk away from Maven. "I will not release you! You can stay here and rot!" Emily turned from him, she began to run towards the forest knowing that he would not follow her into it during the night.

Though she did not get to the entrance as she had planned to. Emily looked back to see if Maven was following her, it was a simple mistake. In this whole mess she had forgotten about the other man, Alton. Suddenly her body crashed against another, she heard wood tumble to the ground as her body did. Emily let out a groan as her body met the ground, she opened her eyes and looked up at an unfamiliar face, though familiar clothing. It was Alton.
