Chapter 4
"Hello Amiee!"
"Hello Freda."
"How are you today? Would you like some rock cakes? Cupcakes? Carrot cakes?"
"No thanks Freda, I'm fine."
"Tea? Coffee? Orange Juice? It's fresh squeezed. I also made rhubarb juice, just for you!"
"Uh, no thanks."
It was strange. Freda seems overly welcoming today, though Amiee. Kioran growled nervously.
"Don't worry Ki, it's only Freda."
"No." said Kioran, getting inside Amiee's head. She stepped back, dizzy. How did he do that? He gave her a 'There are other people here' warning look. She took it for sulkiness, and walked straight past him into Freda's cave.
"How would you like to come with me to Ongori?" Asked Freda.
That's why she was being so nice, thought Amiee. Kioran growled again, stepping back from the entrance of the cave.
"No thank you Freda, bu-"
She hadn't even finished her sentence before a group of about eight men jumped out of the shadows and grabbed her. She didn't even have time to open her mouth before a glove-clad hand was shoved over it. Kioran yelped, and flew over to a nearby tree, as fighting back would only get himself captured as well, and then what use was he to Amiee? She struggled and fought but she was only a child, and what chance does a child have up against eight fully grown trained warriors, and a witch.
"Sorry Amiee" said Freda, not a speck of remorse in her hardened eyes.
"Freda!" she gasped as her guard loosened his grip. "It was you?"
Freda cackled. "Well, who else?"
