Sleeper And The Spindle (Part 2)
They turned west, and never looked back. In front of them, they saw an impressive labyrinth of trees, with branches twisted and tangled. Suddenly, there was an ear-piercing bang and the queen's future husband appeared before them. He looked as if his face was about to erupt by an active volcano. He was dressed in his wedding suit and in his fancy winklepickers. Without warning, the prince swept the dwarfs and ran off with his horse. The queen was star-struck.
The fellow dwarfs were trapped into different cages. The prince walked along with the cages slowly inspecting each and every dwarf." You three dwarfs have two choices. Join me to take revenge on that queen. I need her head and blood on my hands. Or you can die a slow and aggravating death," said the prince. The two dwarfs refused to join but the last one glared at his mates." Sorry my friends but for it do not want to die. Take your last breath since you shall die at this very spot!" exclaimed the evil dwarf. He drew his sword at the two other dwarfs and within seconds he had beheaded them.
The speed of the horse was immense. The queen had a tight grip on the horse's leash. She was nearly there. She had folles the prince with her mighty horse and she was about to track them down. Suddenly the horse had stopped. They had arrived. As the queen entered she found two of her headless dwarfs lying on the floor. She was astonished. Who would do such a horrible thing? As she searched more she saw her husband be and one of her dwarfs." How could you do that you selfish dwarf. They were your brothers," yelled the queen. The dwarf didn't reply, he just smirked.
" There is nothing you can do now, your too weak to battle a handsome, strong warrior like me," bellowed the evil dwarf. The dwarf drew his sword at the queen. His master (the future king) came closer and closer to the queen. She was surrounded. The woman's mind was blank. This was unexpected. The queen had to think fast, so she slid under the prince's legs, sped through the hallway and out the door. She could hear the footsteps of her enemies. The queen grabbed her horse's leash and disappeared into the forest.
The queen finally reached her cottage in the woods. She didn't know what to do. Her two allays were murdered, one of her comrades had turned evil. She had realized that THAT dwarf and THE prince would eventually find her. She needs a plan...
