What does this forest hold?

Back On Equestria

Twilight stood looking around the park confused and scared. Rainbow just up and vanished in front of her eyes, and where she went she could not tell. Looking back to Trixie who had regained consciousness Twilight walked off toward her home in a huff. Trixie watched her leave and growled, getting herself up, and using her staff limped back to her house.
The sun had descended the sky leaving a spray of orange and red across the sky. A spring breeze blew through the girls purple hair. She was in deep thought and had no idea where to start on finding Rainbow. Entering her Library like home she went to her bookshelf's and began scouring her collection on how to begin searching. Rainbow Dash was lost, and there were no clues to begin searching. 'This was going to be one long night' Twilight thought to herself as a tear dropped down her cheek. Stupid Trixie, always trying to best her even though she'll never win. Her magic is to restricted. That's when she noticed her young pet dragon Spike come in and she just smiled, wiping the few tears from her eyes as she told him about the afternoon of events.

They made it to the Forest, dashing into the thick trees, the guards still not sure where they ran off to. That ploy wont last for long but it lasted long enough. The duo traveled deeper into the forest as the day wore on, the sun starting to set on the horizon. Both Serineity and Rainbow dash tired from the travel over the rigged terrain of the forest. When the sun had almost but set, Serineity spoke up. "We need to find a place to rest in the trees, the hunters of the night will be out soon and they are ruthless as they are ugly." Rainbow nodded and shivered the cold air pierced her bare skin. They looked up and into the canopy questioningly as they scanned for a suitable spot to rest. "Grab some sticks, i know a little trick to keep us warm tonight." She smiled as she climbed a tree briskly and located a few sturdy branches. Rainbow looked at her and quietly gathered some branches and sticks per her request and slowly ascended the same tree trying to keep all the sticks in tow. As she climbed she saw Serineity fast at work with a contraption. a few rocks and well placed sticks and leaves made a solid platform. "alright, now lay the sticks here and lets get us some warmth." She balanced herself on one of the branches lying back on the tree trunk as a fire sparked to life in front of her. It was a small fire, but warm enough to keep the chill at bay. Serineity laid her back against the tree trunk next to Rainbow and just let out a relaxed sigh as the sun set, clouding the forest in darkness, the fire crackled a small light for them.

The night rolled slowly on as the winds blew gently across the skies. Leaves rustled above them as the moons light pierced through the canopy lighting up sections with soft white. Rainbow dash sat on the tree branches looking about, cold nipped but the fire kept enough at bay to a point she was able to handle it. She let a sigh out as she pondered what had happened in such a short time. She played that scene back in her head over and over, Trixie and Twilight fighting, suddenly a large burst of pure arcane energies. A falling sensation... one like she was flying... Free through the sky with strong wings and a determination to be the fastest. A sudden image flashed through her mind but its as if time slowed down. She saw a Blue Winged Pony flying through the sky, of some world, free and smiling, it looked at her, with the same Magenta eyes she had, her mane was colored like that of a rainbow. It flapped its wings once, and spoke in a soft tone. "Your Friends are with you Rainbow dash, And though it seems like you may be lost, you will always find your way back. Do not give up and keep fighting." Then with a sudden acceleration of time she watched the pony explode in a giant rainbow off into the sky. With a shock she jutted awake looking around the forest that was bathed in moonlight. The small fire crackled as Serineity lay asleep on the branch beside her. what.. was that.. and why did it look a lot like me...? That pony kept coming back, that determined smile. A smile that said "I know I can do it, and I am going to keep doing it no matter how hard it looks." With a sigh she laid back on the trunk to try and gather what little rest she could before the sun came out.

Rustling was heard below and suddenly a loud crash of something hitting the tree. Rainbow nearly lost her balance and went tumbling out as she grasped the branches she laid on tightly. Below her she saw a large Fanged animal, who's coat was black as night, its eyes pierced her like arrows. It looked at her with a growl in its voice as it tried to figure out its way up. Rainbow looked around but did not see her new acquaintance she had met yesterday, growing even more frightened she grasped the branches firmly. The Beast slammed the tree once more, a crack was heard below her. It had immense strength and this smallish tree was not going to last long against it. Again once more it slammed into the tree, a bone billing snap was heard as the tree started to give away at the enormous beast. Rainbow dash held on to a large branch for dear life. She struggled to regain her footing as the tree started to tumble, the ground was coming to meet her head on quickly. With a soft thump, the tree shattered across the ground. Rainbow laid on the dirt ground, her head rung like a bell as she had wood splintered everywhere. Hair Ames she rubbed her head and was met with a pair of golden blue eyes that pierced her like arrows. Fangs as shard as swords, and as long as a small human child, she was mere inches away from death. It sniffed her, inquisitively, and then a few more times. Suddenly a big wet tongue licked rainbows face and sent a deathly clod shiver Dow. Her spine. Fwump! It suddenly sat at her feet and tilted it's head at her. Rainbow confused at the sudden change in demeanor looked at it confused. "Soooo you're not going to eat me?" It shook its head softly. "Why... Not?" She said sounding stupid. "Because she's my friend goof. Granted I was hoping to find her before she took the tree down.." Serina huffed as the creature turned and practically pounced the red haired maiden.

"Alright, alright. Geez Olandra. I missed you to. Glad to see you are safe." She had the big cat in a bear hug. "You know that thing?" Serina nodded. " I do I do. She's a Larl, sabercat. She's a furious little thing. Very protective of her mother to." She giggled as the cat was purring and practically engulfing Serina in her fur. "Found the poor thing hurled by its dead mother some years ago. She was a little afraid at first, but well. Here we are, some seven seasons later. She grew up fast." Rainbow could still not believe how such a big creature, which was ready to eat her moments ago... Maybe, is like a big kitten when Serina showed up. With a shiver, rainbow began to clean herself off. "I don't think a days going to go by I'm not completely confused on this planet. Speaking of which, what planet is this?" Serina actually looked confused. "Come to think of it, I never asked..." Rainbow smacked her face hard. "You're no help." With a sigh she looked around. "Well, now what?" Serina perked up. "Hey sweetheart," she spoke to Olandra, "you mind walking us to our special spot, maybe let rainbow ride on your back? Seeing as you did knock her out of a tree..." The poor Larl groaned, being guilt tripped it huffed. With a soft grumble serina smiled. "Thank you sweetie!" Olandra stuck her tongue out, Serina did the same. Rainbow watched, inquisitively. "It's like she's your child, never seen a, Cat of her stature act like that before." With a cocky grin, "well when you raise them right they are model citizens." Olandra sat in a proper salute and had a visible smile. "I doubt it's those guys style of "Model Citizen" she joked to the pair. Both stuck their tongues at rainbow. "We don't care about their standards. I only care about my standards. And she's 100% perfect." Rainbow had an unimpressed smirk. "What do you know anyway." Rainbow stood up a little wobbly. "Well let's get going. Before they try to find us." Olandra sat down before rainbow, still she was a little uneasy about this, "just be gentle, and it's like a big fluffy bed." Nodding rainbow got onto Olandra's back slowly, and after a moment she sat comfortably. "All ready to go just be careful, and don't pull on her fur." With that, Serina began to lead the pack through the forest. It was tough, and Rainbow was thankful to be seated on this magnificent beast as it trekked the terrain with ease. Serina seemed to know these forests well as she was walking with confidence and seemed to know exactly where she needed to go. The sun was rising in the far sky as the forest was becoming lit up. "Damn it, i was hoping to get there before the sun rose. It'll be harder to avoid the patrols." Serina cursed softly. "Hang on Dash, We got to make time up and fast." Olandra flexed her shoulders, Dash held on as tight as she could not hurting her, and they took off. Serina and Olandra were dashing swiftly through the forest trying to outrun the sunlight. They seemed to never tire, hopping branches and navigating through the trees they were approaching a cave swiftly.

As they darted in hiding out of sight quickly, was when Dash heard the roar of horses in the distance. "They arn't so happy about what we did at that coliseum. They wont give us up easily, especially insulting the Emperor like I did." Dash slid off Olandra and nodded. "Seems like I'm in it till the end now. Isn't much I can do, and you seem to at least know how to survive here." Kind of halfheartedly she chuckled, looking rather depressed all of a sudden. Serina came over, hugging Dash softly. Dash just broke down and began to cry softly in her arms. "I want to go home..." The horse's thundered closer every passing second. "Come on Hun, lets get safe and you can let it all out." Wiping her eyes Dash nodded as Serina took her hand and began to lead them into the heart of the cave.

------Back On Equestria------

Twilight was skimming over every book she could get her hands on. "No... no.... Definitely not. No. Not even close." She was tossing books, the young dragon was picking them up behind her. "Twilight, you might want to get some rest its pretty late." She sighed and sat down. "I know Spike, but Dash is missing and I don't know where to even start looking." He set the books aside, "I know, but wearing yourself thin won't do you any good. Nor Dash any good. Get some rest, and we can talk to the Princess's tomorrow and see if they have anything that might help you out." Twilight nodded, "You're right Spike, alright I'll go to bed." She got up and went up stairs getting ready for bed. Showered, brushed her teeth and got in her Pj's. Getting into bed she curled under her blankets, How am i going to tell everyone what happened, what if I can't bring her back? Will I ever see Dash again... She thought as her mind finally ended up fading out sending her into un-restful nightmares that left her shaking to and fro in her bed.

Dash being led be Serina through the cave noticed a wall made of wood they were approaching. "HALT!" On the top of the wall a handful of women had Bows drawn and pointed at them. "State your name!" Serina stood in front of Dash. "Serina Valoria" The bows were dropped, "Serina?! You're alive!?" The gates nearly flung open as the handful of women rushed out and trampled poor Serina. "We thought you were not going to come back after that last raid. We were worried sick!" They all were in a large group hug. "Don't worries girls, It takes more then a battalion of men to stop me." They then noticed the Rainbow haired Lady that stood behind her kind of unsure. "And Whos the newbie?" the other Ladies asked inquisitively as they eyed her over. "This is Dash, Rainbow Dash. Comes from somewhere else. Helped me escape from that damned arena." Dash kind of half smiled, still kind of uneasy and slightly hiding behind Serina. "Oh she did? She a good fighter?" Serina chuckled softly, "Not exactly. She's not really a fighter." The Ladies got the message by Serina attitude. "oh, okay. Well, Welcome to our village Rainbow Dash!" They all began to walk into the village, Olandra had been lagging behind watching to make sure no one followed, catching up as the group of ladies made way, she happily hopped into the village as the gates closed behind her. "Welcome to My village of Free Women of Galamora. Sanctuary to all those who just want to live freely. Though its a little dark around here, Its Quiet, and the men tend to leave us alone. For the most. Come on, I think its time for a well earned shower, and maybe some new clothes." Dash smiled, those sounded like amazing ideas right now. The armor was nice and all, but it was starting to chafe a bit. Serina practically dragged the poor dash through the village toward her new home, and maybe a new life, at least for now.

It all Started With a Bicker

It was a Lovely Day on Equestria as everyone awoke to their daily lives. Rainbow Dash, a stunning rainbow haired lady in her early 20's rose from her cloud like bed with a yawn. Sun shining in through her window as her magenta colored eyes looked out and she let a small smile ride across her lips. Dashing up and walking to her bathroom she started her daily morning routine. She jumped into the shower, washing herself clean from yesterdays activities to start anew today, she enjoyed the warm water that flowed over her. Enjoying the warm shower for a long enough time she finished up and stepped out, drying her hair with a towel she began to brush her teeth. After many years of multitasking like this doing these two tasks at once was easily done. She smiled seeing her nice white teeth as she finished up drying herself off. Walking to her Dresser she chose her outfit for the day. A soft blue tank-top shirt, and a nice pair of comfy broken in pair of pants. Walking to her front door she opened it up to let the cool summer breeze waft past her and inside her home, a glorious smile she held feeling this great wind. Quickly she grabbed her boots, slipping them on over her socked feet she stood back up and headed outside. Closing her door as she proceeded to begin her exercise routine, she started jogging towards the local park.

Two young women stand nearly toe to toe in the middle of Ithaburg Park. Scorch marks in the grass spotted around them, both sweating and huffing as they are worn out from the fight they were engaged in. A young woman of 19 with silver hair laden with blue highlights stood holding a large wand like item in a defensive stance. Another young woman of 21 with purple hair holding one largish pink stripe down the middle stood holding a staff, which held a large sapphire upon its head, in a defensive position as well. Both were tired and seemed to been fighting over something that has been blown out of proportion. "Give up Trixie! You know im a better mage then you are." The silver haired girl growled. "Your nothing compared to my power. The great and powerful Trixie has no equal! And you Twilight are not besting me today!" Suddenly she shot off another spell at Twilight, who barely reacted in time as it shattered a magical shield that formed at the last second. She cringed, that last spell had a bit more kick to it then the rest, and if she did not stop this now, someone was going to get hurt. "Just give it up!" She then launched a large orb of energy at Trixie who dodged barely as it singed a few strands of hair. Trixie seeing this is furious and launches a large barrage of energy bolts towards her adversary. Twilight could barely withstand the barrage as she heard a familiar voice call to her. "Twilight! Are you okay?!" Rainbow dash yelled running toward her. Twilight barely managed to speak before suddenly a large explosion ruptured the area around them. Twilight laid on the scorched earth and sat up rubbing her head. Trixie was unconscious feet away but Rainbow Dash seemed to be missing. "Oh no! What happened to Rainbow dash!?" she looked around frantically.

Rainbow dash awoke rubbing her head and groggy. She looked around the land she seen was not the one she was in just a moment ago. Nature was not vivid and the ground was worn. Trees were scarce and grass grew in splotches. Footsteps rumbled in the distance and sounded like they were closing in fast from nearly every direction. Frantically she got to her feet, clothing was tattered and barely covered her decency. She looked around to find no where she could hide spotting the soldiers descending upon her location. She was becoming greatly scared and started to run away from the approaching hoard of men. The footsteps rumbled behind her gaining with their trained bodies. She was fit, but these men were experts. Even clad in full bronze armor they were charging after her. Suddenly she found herself falling as she slammed into the hard dirt ground with a thud. Her feet were bound by some odd device she did not recognize. The Bolas wrapped her legs together as she hastily tried to remove it from her feet. Just as she freed herself, the men were to close and she tried to run. Only to have her arm grabbed violently lurching her backwards. Out of reaction she sent a fist in the direction of the assaulter but met with metal with a soft thump and a very painful almost bone snapping recoil. She screamed out in pain as she quickly recoiled her hand, the men grabbed her other arm and quickly bound them behind her back. Her fingers throbbing as she suddenly felt a hard smack to her head and then all went black.

Something smacked Rainbow in the face as she came to. Wooden bars were the first thing she saw as she let a soft groan out, her head throbbing with massive pain. As her vision returned clear, she looked around her small confines. Noticing a red haired woman sitting on the other side. She held a soft face almost untouched by elements, her lips were red and her eyes shone a crystal Amethyst color. Her body held some tattered leather outfit as her face held a look of disdain and anger. Rainbow laid her head back and sighed, which seemed to grab the other woman's attention. "Finally awake i see." She held a soft voice, one that held care and concern but a hint of authoritative tone behind it. Rainbow nodded as she replied. "Barely, feels like the back of my skull is caved in." The woman chuckled, and nodded. "Aye it probably does. They tend to be aggressive with new comers." Rainbow was kinda confused and looked at her. "Newcomers? You knew i wasn't from here?" She nodded and motioned to Rainbows clothing. "Your Clothing is what gives you away. Most people who come here from other worlds or planes tend to be taken for slaves and what not. But not the fighting ones, no they are not spared to such trivial lives. No we get to go to the arena to fight. Because we would not make such good slaves anyway. Our rebellious spirit may end up killing someone." Rainbow sat confused but seemed to get the gist of what she was talking about. "So how did you end up here?" The woman chuckled and sighed. "A long story short, I lead a group of rebellious women who want to live away from the tyranny the men, and it did not end to well when we were raided in the night." She looked down and sighed, "I lost many good sisters last night, why I'm still alive I do not know quite honestly." The two sat in silence for a few moments as Rainbow tried to think of what to say. "Well, im sure they are in a better place." was all she could muster. The other lady smiled. "Thank you. And the name's Serineity Valoria. Pleasure to meet you." Rainbow smiled and replied. "Rainbow Dash."

What do we do now?

The trip lasted a what felt like a eternity as they listened to a roar of a crowd nearby. A large circular structure overshadowed them as they were wheeled into a set of double doors. The roar of the crowd was much louder but muffled under the stone floors above them. The cart stopped next to a wooden door reenforced with metal bars and studs. The women were taken out of the cart still bound and pushed through the open door. Inside laid a few other catches from other parties that were bruised and battered slightly from the fighting spirits they tried to hold onto. Some had exotic clothing, others wore leather like outfits, but all were bound and lined up. Serineity and Rainbow were lined up at the back of the pack when a large and muscular male stood in the middle of them, his back held a large Claymore, and his glare could pierce stone. "Listen up you sluts. You are here because we have deemed all of you unworthy to even scrub our floors. You're all a bunch of feral beasts, and will be treated as such. You get no comforts like the slaves who obey us do. Your lives are forfeit and forgotten. This is the final march to your end. Pray you find mercy for the despicable actions you took today." He said with a gruffy voice. With that he left as the guards ushered the women to the holding pens. Groups of 5 were set into each pen and as they neared the last open one, Rainbow and Serineity along with three others all took residence in what may be their last "home".

After a moment the guards undid the woman's bindings to allow them to feed themselves enough so they at least put up a fight to entertain the spectators. After a few minutes a guard pointed to a group of women and they were ushered out onto the awaiting killing floor as it was. Moments the crowd would roar with excitement, others moments a loud "awwww" was heard. Then another group was taken. Slowly the pen emptied as they ushered all the women out. What happened to them remained a mystery until the last group containing the two odd women was called. But something different happened this time. A Loud voice boomed across the stadium. "Gentlemen and slaves! Today we have a special segment for you. We hold in our grasp the leader of these Gandoria Rebels. Yes ! Serineity Valoria, the Wretched scum who dared to Usurp our Glorious society. Today! We will watch her get the Justice she so deserves for her Treachery against our fair lands! So Give a big round for our Emperor who made this all happen! Garithos Diear!" Roaring was heard outside the doors that held their fate. Men cheered as they were riled up and ready to watch a glorious event ready to unfold before them. The guards smiled as they readied the doors. "This is gonna be fun." One said as Serineity scoffed and rolled her eyes. Rainbow was scared out of her wits end and hoped this was all just a dream.

The small group of women were pushed out onto the bloodied arena floor. Many streaks lead off to gates that were locked tight and a few scattered body parts were seen to and fro. Men holding leashes to collared women who knelt at their feet cheered on seeing the Red Haired Tyrant. Serineity smiled softly as she looked around with a calm demeanor. Rainbow visibly shook with terror as well as the other woman who were freaking out. Rainbow tried to grasp the current situation, she knew she wasn't home anymore that was certain. When her thought train was derailed seeing the Red haired Tyrant shake her slightly. "Listen up girl. If we are gonna get out of this with our lives your gonna have to help me. got it?" Rainbow nodded, living sounded like a great plan and least health threatening. "Alright, so you just stick with me and when I tell you to, we got to jump one of the fighters and disarm him. Only then can we get a upper hand." Rainbow nodded as Serineity looked at the gate that held 5 Half armored men wielding a variety of weapons, ranging from axes, swords, spears and a flail. One male held his spear with a cocky attitude his face encased in a large helmet with a face guard offering him great vision but hid the rest of his face. The male with the axe was tall and muscular, his slim figure wore leather armor and a full metal helmet to hide all his face, the only visibility he got was through many small holes in his face guard. The one wielding the flail was heft and burly, his body held strapped on pieces of metal armor across half his chest and shoulders, his helm was that of a hat, his face fully exposed. The one holding the large sword had long brown hair a cocky smile and a pair of armored pants with a single leather strap for his sword sheath. Rainbow was scared but she hoped that if she helped out her new acquaintance that she may just survive. "We go for the one with the spear, the range will be a definite help." The other 3 women had scattered like roaches trying to find ways out. Serineity watched as 3 men split off to find them some fun as the Flail and Axe wielding men headed towards the brightly colored Tyrants. Both the Ladies stood ready, Rainbow held a amateur defensive pose, while Serineity poised herself. The men let out heavy laughs as they saw the two ready to fight. "This will be cake." Said one a deep voice echoed from his helmet. They began a full charge at them, Serineity held her ground Rainbow was nearly about to piss herself in anticipation. Right as the two men got within striking distance they brought their weapons down upon the two as they pushed off the ground and dashed to the sides to dodge. Rainbow unskilled almost tripped as she recovered to see the man grabbing his axe from the ground, Serineity had poised herself like a cat and with one swift kick nailed the flail wielder in the side causing the male to trip over his feet and knock the other male unsteady letting go of his axe. Rainbow saw Serineity look at her and knew what she meant for her to do. With all her force and fear of losing her life she dashed for the axe, grabbing it with little effort. She rushed to Serina's side handing the axe to her, the weapon was heavy to rainbow but when serina wielded it, it looked light as a feather. The Men stood back up noticing these women arn't like the rest. The unarmed male pulled from his side a long sword, and smiled. "Ah this is what i like. Fiesty ones. Maybe i might let you live and break you. But first." He began his advance toward the women.

Grinning Serina held the axe waiting. "Well then, seems someone needs to learn a lesson. Kitty has claws." he brought his sword down to strike her, she deflected the blow with skill as she came back and nailed the man with her boot. he let out a small cry, but quickly swung his arm at her, causing her to throw herself backwards to dodge the blow. Rainbow was frantically looking around, the other three men were toying with the other women, and payed no heed to anything else. The crowd was on fire, as they watched all the events unfold, the emporer on the edge of his seat as he watched the main even unfold. Sparks flew as the sword and axe clashed the males brute strength made it hard for Serina to keep her composure. "Damn this meat bag is packing..." She huffed pushing the man back a bit. Everyone in the stadium was waiting. Serina chuckled as she noticed. "Come on big boy, lets put on a show. I'd hate to not give the people their money's worth." With a deep laugh he smiled. "With pleasure." He charged her with his sword ready, bringing it down as they clashed again, nearly staggering serina in the sheer force of the blow. With a twist, the axe grabbed sword, forcing it out of the males hand. It clanked across the ground and landed at Dash's feet. "Grab it Dash. You're going to need it."

Shaking from the excitement and terror, she grabbed it up. This was much lighter and easier to use then the bulky axe. The male chuckled at this. "Poor girl is so terrified she can barely stay still. Tis a shame. I'd not want to ruin such pretty faces." The other male whom was standing off to the side not to interfere, handed the man his flail. "Remove her fighting spirit Viktor. She doesn't need it." Viktor grasped the flail tightly. "No more tricks. Its time to end this." He began swirling the flail about. "Dash, when i take him down you make for that gate. Use the sword to bash the lock on the chain. I'll be over to get the gate up, we will make our escape that way." Dash nodded, as she watched Viktor advance. "Alright big boy. Lets dance." The flail came down and she threw herself to the side, coming back up she took the axe and swung it forward, in his recovery and being rather exposed it cut threw his side like butter as blood sprayed across the ground. Viktor fell to the side, grasping his wound. "Damn you slut! How dare you?!" Without hesitation Serina had taken off after dash, who just reached the gate, smashing the lock with all her strength as it clanked to the ground. Turning around she saw Serina running at full speed toward the gate, and moved to the side not to get in the way. Slamming the gate with the axe, it shook, the Thick wooden gate snapped slightly as she used all her force to smack it once more, shattering a section of the gate, just large enough for their slender bodies to squeeze through. "Dash! go. we are getting out of here." The Other Four Men were charging toward the gate like a herd of wild beasts.

Dash squeezed through the gate, holding onto the sword desprately as she waited for her friend. Serina squeezed through, barely keeping the axe in her hands as she did the men slammed into the gate with a shattering force nearly dismounting the gate as a whole. The emporer yelled, "Get that gate open! GUARDS MOVE! Make sure those Sluts NEVER Make it out of the CITY ALIVE!" The crowds were roaring with excitement as they watched the events unfold. Serina held Dash's hand as she made her way out as if she knew the place like the back of her hand. "How do you know where you're going?" Serina chuckled, "I've spent weeks sneaking around this city, I know all the nooks and cranny's. now come on. We cant delay. I have a small hide out we can get some stuff at. It will take them at least an hour to organize enough guards to cover these streets." Dash nodded, the rush started to die down a bit since the threat of death seemed to be vanishing behind that barred gate behind her. The pair did their best to stay out of sight, the mid afternoon sun was slowly dropping as night was coming. They were in the run down part of the town, standing outside a rather out of the way shack down a back allyway. Fiddling with the lock on the door she managed to get it open and pulled Dash inside and closed it softly.

It was musky smelling and rather run down but held a few nice looking chests. "how did you get these here?" Serina was messing with the complex locking system on the chests. "Oh it took a while. bargening and lots of shadey work. Most men don't enjoy seeing a free woman, but with enough gold anyones mind can be changed. I knew a day like this would come. I never assumed we were safe. All it takes is one stray woman who cant take the torture to spill her guts for a bargin. Just so happens that a few days ago was that day. Though most men fell or retreated, I was a little stupid, and decided to try and make sure those men never got home. Well they had planned a counter attack. Well seeing as I had no way out, I struck a deal. I went with them, they left the rest of my tribe alone. They never did find our hideout, but they came close. Anyway ended up in the cage thing together and now we are here." Click and pop the chest swung open. "Alright dear. Heres some gear, you're relatively my size so it should fit well enough." She set in Dash's arms a light set of leather like armor. Dash looked at it then back to her. "I'm not going home anytime soon am I?"

Serina stopped rummaging and sighed "No dear, you're not. I've been trapped here for nearly 7 seasons. Its going to take a lot to get out of here. Best we can do right now is survive. At least if we are free and alive we can find a way off this place." Dash nodded as she wiped her eyes clear going into a side room to change out of her tatters. Unfamilier with the way this was to work, she managed to get the shirt and pants on, but thats it... "Hey.. Serina... I need help..." She poked her head out to her. Serina had changed herself already, her armor now looked new and ready to go, the axe was sheathed on her back and she had two daggers on her waist. Her boots were big and bulky but slim and accented her legs perfectly. "hehe.. I forgot you're new to this stuff." She walked into the room Dash was in and began explaining to her how to put the armor on and how to take it off with ease.

An hour passed and the two women were geared up and ready to go. "Alright Dash, we need to stay close and quiet. There will be guards abound, but with the right patience we can get out of town without a single issue." The pair were standing outside the front door as she relocked the door with a quiet click of the lock. The two began their trek through the run down town. The rythmatic stomping of guards in formations patroling the streets could be heard faintly in all directions. Sneaking through the streets they were making their way to the edge of town, the forest's trees could be seen in the distance. Crunching was heard as Dash didn't notice the broken glass on the ground, her boots shattering it into pulp. "That way men! The noise was from the south! MOVE MOVE MOVE!" Serina looked up the street and noticed a small legion of men charging their way. "Oh dear... Its time to run!" She grabbed Dash by the hand and yanked her along, they began rushing through ally ways and streets to and fro avoiding the increasing parade of men that made hasty chase after them. The womens stamina wained as they neared the edge of the city, barely able to lose the guards hot on their heels, "They... will be a little turned around, just long enough so we can make it far enough into the woods." Dash nodded trying to catch her breath as she was dragged once more towards freedom.
