Anna braced as they crashed to the ground and she hit the roof, but most of the impact was taken by Meiranis.  She cringed as she crawled over to the fallen man and tried to hold his head up, "Meiranis!  Are you okay??  Don't die okay.." She said in a panic as she tried to keep him from blacking out.  Che cradled his body close to hers in an attempt to keep his head off the hard roof.<br/><br/>She saw that some of the village men were trying to hoist themselves up on the roof to finish him off.  Anna was conflicted by her feelings suddenly as a rush of thoughts sprang at her.  If she protected Meiranis, would she be marked as a traitor?  Would Meiranis hate her if she chose to leave?<br/>Soon her instincts took over though and she kept them from climbing on the roof as she jumped down.   "Stop!  He can't move!  He's half dead anyways so you might as well leave!  You got what you wanted!!" She exclaimed, her eyes filled with tears but her expression was deadly and angry.<br/><br/>"He must be controlling her.." A village boy yelled.  "I think we taught the demon it's place!  We came to rescue the girl as well anyways" a farmer said.<br/>"We have need to help cure her of the demons control on her mind!" A woman yelled in fear for the girl.<br/><br/>"Wait!!  Stop!  No!!" Anna yelled as she was forcefully grabbed.  They kept her from squirming, thinking she was under some kind of mind control.  They continued to lead her away back to the village after the had knocked her out to keep her from screaming.  She was finally going home, but now she almost didn't care about returning.
