Ride Left

From Create Your Own Story

You could hear the voices getting closer, and you couldn't help but feel nervous. There are mens' voices; you knew since they were rough and deep. That weren't good news for you. You grip your horse's reins anxiously and ride quickly into the left road. It was a shame the voices never got quieter. In fact, it seemed to come even closer to you. The men laugh and ride up from behind you. 

"Hey, girly, what are you doing all alone?" They chuckle, and you immediately suspect that they were up to no good. 

You decide to not answer and speed up, trying to lose them. This seemed to amuse them and they laughed, chasing after you. You mumble miserably in your mind. What a great start this turned out to be. They began to close you in the middle, trying to trap you into their little gang. Fear coursed through you quickly and you whipped your horse frantically. 

Apparently, they didn't expect you to still be that stubborn. They growl and threaten to take you down with their weapons. At that moment you thought. Really? Did they really expect you to give yourself up to them? Fuck no. A strange fury burned within you and you grab your bow (you thank the heavens your dad was a blacksmith) and arrow and aimed backwards. Your legs tremble at the strength needed to hold onto your horse and aim at the same time. However, you are strong enough. 

The rogues seem taken aback at your violence. A woman defying them, imagine that! One man growls darkly, "Look, come with us or else you'll regret it."

You say nothing but glare at the man, as if threatening him. You wanted him to leave by any means necessary. 

He begins to approach you and you hesitantly let him come, doubt suddenly shooting through you. When he suddenly grasped your reins, you kill him with surprising accuracy. He groans in pain and drops off his horse, dead. 

One down. Four men left. Nine Arrows Remaining. 

They were Rogues on the Left Path.
