Alanna kept up easily with Ellyn, pausing only a moment to grab a shield that she saw beside a dead English soldier. She picked it up and shouldered it then hurried to catch up. When she had caught up she went into stealth mode as she moved around, grabbing a bow and quiver of arrows she also found. She wasn't exactly the best shot but she knew they would come in handy should they get the jump on something or need to hunt. All the while she kept up with Elly fairly well.<br/><br/>Once she felt they were well equipped with weaponry she ignored watched for living people rather than the dead. She ran with Elly watching the woods. She could feel the change in the mood of the area instantly and realized that they weren't just running for their village, they were running for the entire kingdom. She knew she had to be strong. With that in mind she felt herself shift from the sweet, innocent little girl that cared for people into a female soldier in a fight for their lives and the lives of the citizens in their kingdom.<br/><br/>She knew the road ahead of them would be difficult and that they would face many challenges but they had to go through with it. They had to fight and run for themselves, their families, and their kingdom.
