Always forget that. Well, which part should we start it from then?)
-
I always forget as well. It just kind of popped into my mind a moment ago.
Umm... Maybe shortly before the kidnapping takes place?) -
Okay, sounds good)
Claire was upstairs in her red room sitting in a small wooden chair waiting for nighttime to finally come. She had just a bot an hour or so until it would be night so she reached carefully for a nearby book and opened it up. It was a rather old book telling of the past rulers and how times had changed over the years of Dremas. "Interesting." She said quietly as she read along to it at a rather brisk pace so she could get through as much as possible for the time being. -
Tera jumped carefully through the thick forest that covered an area behind the castle. Her heart was pounding, she was nervous for her first major job. She had always done things like assassinating tax collectors and such. She had never went after royalty, or even Lords and Ladies.
Taking a deep breath, Tera slowed her breathing and her heartbeat. She had to do this undetected. If she was detected, she would be dead for sure. -
Claire looked up from the book and put the window to the trees nearby. Her room was right at the outer wall's of the castle and had a great view of nature where the rest of the rooms only saw the town. Claire felt a harsh breeze enter her room from the wind, knocking the book out of her hands and onto the floor of her room. Slowly it began to get darker and darker by the minute. She decided it was time to go to bed for the night and walked over and lifted the book, placing it back on top of the shelf flat on another book as she took a deep breath.
-
Tera noticed that she was nearing the castle now. Her eyes darted around the outside wall until she found the room she was looking for. Her employer had informed her on how to locate it. Once she reached the final branch, she leaped across the gap and onto a narrow ledge that circled around the castle.
Taking another deep breath, Tera began alternating between free running, and running on the ledge towards her target. -
Claire walked over to her Brown bed and took a aeat at the edge of it as she stretched and slowly pushed her boots off of her feet and onto the floor gently. She grabbed get glass of water from beside her bed and took a sip of it closing her eyes. She propped her feet up onto her soft bed and laid down on it as she opened her eyes and stared to the ceiling of her room waiting for the Sun to fall behind the trees outside.
-
Tera was nearing her target's bedroom now. She glanced up at the sky. It would be completely dark in a few minutes. It would be easier to complete the job in the dark, so Tees decided to wait. To be sure that she wouldn't fall, Tera very carefully held on to the edge of her target's balcony. She made it so that her target wouldn't be able to see her hand, even if She was looking in that direction.
Taking a final, smaller breath, Tera waited for the sun to set. -
(*Tera)

Claire saw that it was right there at darkness and it was getting a bit hard to see out of her window and to the trees. When she did look out the window, she only saw dark outlines of the trees and, at times, little flashes of light in them. Seeing as it was now dark out, she decided to gently close her eyes shut and try to get to sleep for the night. It was peaceful in there no noise, not much light, and the only sounds were the light sounds from natures creatures which always comforted her.
-
After the darkness settled in, Tera waited a few more minutes. She closed her eyes and touched her free hand gently on the balcony floor. A thin, weak wave of magic traveled across the princess's room. There was nothing and no one living touching the ground. So the princess must've been either sitting on something, or lying in her bed.
Tera brought her free hand back down beside her. She held it in front of her and murmured, "Soul Snare." Two small decorated stick-looking items attached to each other landed in her hand. She stuffed the Soul Snare under her belt, and pulled herself onto the edge of the balcony. The target was in bed. So far so good.
Tera carefully stepped down onto the floor, and then she crouched down, and silently shuffled across the floor towards the princess's bed. Once she reached it, she stopped, and against fell over. Tera managed to stop herself, but her heart was now pounding. She carefully pulled out the Soul Snare again, and she pulled apart the sticks. A translucent ribbon-type magic was flowing between the two rods. Taking a deep breath, Tera quickly stood and slammed her hand against the princess's mouth. She placed the Soul Snare on the princess's stomach and the magic device wrapped around her, binding her arms and legs, and covering her mouth.
Tera let out a long breath. Then she realized that there were far easier ways to do this job. Like tossing sleep gas. Tera suddenly felt even more mentally exhausted then she already was. -
Claire felt something cover her mouth tightly and opened her eyes wide open. It was dark and hard to see, but she could tell someone was in there right to the side of her because she could make out an outline of them. She tries to scream, but her mouth was being held and not a sound came out, she tried to move but then she realised she was tied up it felt. 'what to do?' she asked herself as her heartbeat sped up beating faster and faster. She was panicking, she had never expected to open her eyes and be in this predicament. She knew she had few options, and the only one that made sense and seemed to be the best for better safety would be to go along with it and keep herself calm. Maybe this would not turn out bad, but then again it could. She closed her eyes shut and tried to calm down and clear her head but to no prevail, she only thought about what may happen to her next.
-
Tera looked down at the princess. By what could be seen of her facial expression, she was terrified. Tera smiled lightly. "I'm sorry, but please bear with me. Your safety is guaranteed. Well, at least until I deliver you. But rest assured that I won't injure you."
Tera lifted up the body of the princess, and slung her over her shoulder. She then walked back over to the balcony, and leaped over the edge, and after a few seconds of falling, she landed on the grassy ground. Stumbling a bit, she began to run towards her destination.
Tera didn't know why she tried to comfort her targets when she took kidnapping jobs. "I guess I couldn't purge my kindness during work in the end..." She muttered to herself. -
Claire listened to the words that the figure had spoken and could tell they were a woman from their voice. 'What is going on? Why is she here?' she asked herself in her head as she was carried away from her room and into the woods she had spent hours a day looking at. She felt the wind blow through her as the woman ran through the woods at a good speed.' Is she in a hurry? Why?'' she asked herself. The words she had spoken hung in her head so she knew she would likely be safe if she kept calm and went along. She closed her eyes shut as a few years fell through her eyes from being scared, this was not how she had planned to spend her night and she feared what waited for her at the end of the trail
-
After a few minutes of running, Tera neared the meeting spot. She slowed to a walk, and lifted the girl off of her shoulder. She propped up the Princess's body against a tree. Then she tapped the Soul Snare and it retracted a bit, moving to just bind the princess's wrists.
"Please don't run. I don't want to hurt you if I don't have to," Tera said quietly, looking around. The moonlight lit up the area nicely, so an ambush wouldn't be easily done here. A sniper, maybe.
