The long-awaited next story has arrived! Computer issues slowed me down :( sorry.
Natalie took a slurp of coffee and yawned. Sami emerged from the cupboard holding a box of cereal, and I took another bite of toast. Quite suddenly, Ali exploded into the house, storming into the kitchen with a face like thunder. Close behind were Prim and Cass. Ali thumped down into a chair, and I only just managed to catch my last fried egg as it somersaulted off of my plate.
“Look at this!” snarled Ali. She was holding a note, similar to the note Fluffy had left when she kidnapped Prim. I looked down at it. Neat handwriting was traced across the paper, and Natalie read it aloud.
“I know you have the Book, Ali. You will bring it for me at noon, or I will hunt down your friends, and then you. Meet me beside North Valley, or else,” Natalie looked up at the clock.
“It’s nine ‘o’ clock,” she mused. Ali growled.
“I’ll teach her a lesson,” The fire of battle kindled in her eyes. “No-one threatens my friends,” She crushed her the letter in her fist.
We stood in a line, waiting. A horse appeared at the top of the valley and charged down the hillside. Riding it was a young woman – a similar age to us, wearing a white dress that glittered with golden embroidery, and a golden crown. She smirked when she saw us – particularly Ali, glaring at her with fists clenched, half-baring her teeth.
Part Two coming soon!
