"Princess! Come back!" Voices faded behind her as she took off farther into the forest. She stopped in the middle of a clearing and put down her hood, the moonlight shining on her beauty. Her dress was turning to rags as the forest tore apart what she was running from. She had thrown all her symbols of royalty into the forest for whoever to claim. She took breaths to calm herself. Her smile was so big, her happiness to be free shown on her face. She looked up at moon and commented aloud to herself "Thank you Mr. Man-in-the-moon for guiding my escape tonight" She turned quickly and looked around her as she heard a twig snap. She whispered "They couldn't have found me...or is it even them..."
