Stealing stolen goods || Bae and Emma
Her parents had gone ahead, something about how there were carriages carrying goods for the queen about half a day's ride from the forest and that's where they were heading. Emma was meant to stay near their newest home, but she heard a carriage near the road. Now she was pretty sure it was one of the carriages her parents went to retrieve, and she wondered if this was one that just fell behind. There were men inside, but not dressed like the men of the evil queen dressed. Confusion settled inside of her, but maybe they were just merchants. She looked down at the particularly large rock she had found on her way here, she didn't want to hurt any of them, but if they worked for the queen, she might have to.
Deciding to keep a close eye, she kept her position and waited for them to stop. Luckily it appeared as if they were stopping for a while, which gave her the perfect opportunity to either retrieve goods, or the whole carriage itself. The carriage would be more difficult, but the nearby village was in desperate need of many of the goods the queen had delivered to her, and they needed it more than she did. After the group of men scattered, Emma picked up the skirts of her dress, she suddenly wished she had changed into trousers, it would make this simpler. As soon as she believed the carriage to be empty.
Suddenly there was movement, someone was in the carriage. She froze in her spot behind a tree and she saw a particularly round man leaving the carriage. Damn. But it appeared as if he was leaving the carriage, and heading towards her. She quickly moved around the tree, luckily for her the man did not seem to suspect that anyone was out there, so she easily knocked him out with the rock, giving him a silent apology. Quickly she made her way toward the carriage, climbing on the seat, she grabbed the reign of the horses. "Go" she ordered the horses, as she hoped the men were far away enough they wouldn't hear the horses galloping away.
