Lizette continued running, the wind constantly confirming that her pursuer hadn't slowed down or turned away from following after her. 'This is bad,' she thought, trying to come up with a way to lose him. Up ahead there was an outcropping of trees, the trees looked large and ancient, with a few bushes here and there. To Lizette it looked like the perfect place to hide, until she saw the large hulking shadow of something moving about in the midst of the trees.<br/><br/>What ever she saw, she only caught a glimpse of it for half a second, but it had given her a splendid idea. Since she only barely saw it, there was no way the barbarian following her could have seen it, and if his focus was completely on her, he might not notice it till it's too late. Taking the chance, Lizette dodge towards the trees, keeping her pace. She would have to be tactful if she was going to succeed, and since she didn't know what kind of creature she was possibly going to anger she had to stay at a run. She didn't do anything that would alert the barbarian to her plans, and started zigzagging between trees, though there was one thing she could do that predators would pick up on instantly and that was to become very afraid.<br/><br/><div><hr style="height:2px; width:100%; border:0; color: black;background:black;"/></div><br/><br/>Bern'nard laughed when he knocked a blade out of a young man's hands, the look of defiance mixed with fear only making the large bearded brute laugh all the more. Instead of killing the boy he reached forward and grabbed him by the shirt. Bringing him close he stuck his nose right in the boy's face. "Where are they, two girls, not from around here. Thats wha' I wan'." He shook the boy not giving him time to answer. His thick accent shaking with the joy of fighting, and his rage of not having found their prizes just yet.<br/><br/>"N-no one's been here," the boy answered truthfully.<br/><br/>Of course this only upset Bern'nard and he shook the young man again. "Their tracks lead here. Where are they," he shouted, spittle flying out of his mouth and landing on the young man's face.
