Erased

[~Amber~]

Amarathine sat on the ground, unable to stand her bloodied hand weakly clutching the doll in her arms. the wind howled around her causing her to flinch slightly at branches cracking or anything moving in the wind. she had blood caked all over her face,only tear stains shown her pale skin under neither the blood.

[***Stormchaser***]

Damien was out scouting the forest. No one knew it better than him and his mother, though something was off as he smelled blood not far off and followed it. It was odd since no one ever came this deep into the forest.

[~Amber~]

she pushed herself up against the tree hearing branches snapping around her. she held onto a wound on her side which was bleeding more since she had move as she tried to hide her sniffling and crying.

[***Stormchaser***]

He saw the blood drops and followed it to her.
"Hey....um are you okay?" He asked, catching her in sight.

[~Amber~]

she looked up at him, her big Brown eyes staring widely up at him. she was coated in blood an covered in scratches and bruised. most the blood came from a crack on the top of her head up close she looked close to dead.

[***Stormchaser***]

"You look like you could use some help." He said, though kept a safe distance so he did not scare her

[~Amber~]

"w-who are you? where am i?" She managed to squeak out as she hugged her doll to her chest

[***Stormchaser***]

"My name is Damien and you are in a forest called Spire Forest." He replied. "My mother is a great healer...I can take you to here so she can help you."

[~Amber~]

"o-okay " she whispered holding her doll in one hand she tried to grab for a branch to pull herself up but she couldn't even manage to do that

[***Stormchaser***]

He slowly stepped closer and picked her up. "You shouldn't be moving in this condition."

[~Amber~]

she looked up at him wide eyed "o-okay "

[***Stormchaser***]

"I don't know if this will mean anything but I don't mean you any harm." He said as he carried her through the forest even deeper.

[~Amber~]

she wasn't sure but she felt comfortable, she stared down at her doll trying to keep herself awake.

[***Stormchaser***]

They came up to a hidden pathway that wound a little further until they arrived at a cottage in a large dug out tree. All they had to do was close up the windows and doors and no one noticed it was anything but a big tree.

[~Amber~]

she looked over at it "..tree?"
