"No, Imogene. I think if I don't...guide Apple Blossom, I might...just fall asleep. Maybe even fall off of her. We're almost there," she mumbled sleepily. The last few miles seemed to take an eternity, and it was with weary relief that the two girls rode into the front lawn of Avonleigh. Ashley had left them when the manor was in sight, but neither girl had seemed to notice.<br/><br/>Servants rushed up to the two girls. "Is everything alright?" one of the stable hands asked, concerned over the blood on Ivy's head, and the scratches and welts both of the girls had on their arms and legs.<br/><br/>"We're fine. We're fine," she shooed them away grumpily. "Come on, Imogene. Let's...get to bed. I'm so exhausted, and we can...umm...deal with the mess of everything later, okay?" She held Imogene's hand as they stumbled into Avonleigh.
