Chantal followed a little behind her after the jump until he nudged Myst to catch up. "So if you're not an angel child are you a demon child then? If you are then I'm surprised since I've heard a lot of good thing about you."

(Sorry I haven't been on in a while. Been kind of busy.)

She laughed, "I'm just a normal, quiet child" she answered, stroking her neck softly.
(Same, I've been busy so your good)

He nodded smiling, "I see, well that's better than nothing I suppose." Chantal then thought he saw something out of the corner of his eye and looked right. He saw it again after a moment and leaned towards the princess, "Stay calm. Slowly urge Heaven to go faster." He did the same thing with Myst and checked to make sure he had a dagger or something on him.

"I'm amazing really" she said sarcastically, then she turned as Heaven sidestepped away from the woods to their right "Woah.." she said laying her hand on the mares neck doing her best to calm her, she turned towards him as he spoke then nodded. Her knees squeezed Heaven forward into a nice smooth canter.

Chantal urged Myst along and once they broke into a gallop three hooded riders appeared out of the forest. "Get to the castle," Chantal called over the neighing of horses and the pounding of hooves onto the ground. He kept glancing back and realized that the riders were gaining on them. Suddenly an arrow flew between Chantal and Lena, causing the horses to go faster.

Heaven side stepped again but it was more of a stumble, she wasn't used to being chased. Lena looked back and she grimaced, everyone always wanted to kill her .. or kidnap her but that wasn't the point she shook her head and looked back forward. She knew a shortcut but Chantal was in her way, she slowed Heaven down and cut behind him before asking her mare to speed up again, up and over a log jump before the ran uphill. Heaven breathed hard as they neared the gate but she looked back and noticed they were on some type of thoroughbred which we're bred to run fast.
