Her breath seemed unnaturally loud in her ears, and she her horse was gasping for air as it galloped,

She glanced back at her pursuers, and then turned back to face the forest, still miles ahead. If she made it,

The morning dragged on, and the girl wilted slowly, ever so slowly, in her saddle. The sun burned down, and baked the riders,

The horse went down.
Thrown from the saddle, the girl struggled painfully to her feet, blood seeping through her pant leg as the monstrous wound on her upper thigh reopened.
