"Now, don't call for the authorities, because I'm actually a Knight Of The Empire from Cresta and I'm here to assassinate a member of your town."
"You're kidding me, right?" Phoebe muttered, "you do realize that if you truly were a Knight from Cresta and if you truly were here to assassinate a member of my town, I'd have all the more right to send an arrow through what little of a brain you may or may not have and call for the authorities, right?" She rolled her eyes, and scuffed her shoe in the dirt a few times. "And if your story isn't true, then you must be crazy, which also gives me the right to call for the police, in order to get the proper care that you need."
"Phoebe, are you in here, sweetie?"
"Mom?" She whispered to herself, "ugh, you, stay quiet, okay? I'll deal with her." Her mothers footsteps were coming closer and she ran forward to meet her half way.
"Who were you talking to?"
She bit her lip and looked back, it was too dark to see the man laying in the hay from there, that's good. "Just myself." She answered nonchalantly.
Her mother didn't buy it, but continued, "and why do you have those arrows with you? And your bow?"
"Just going hunting."
Phoebe's mother pursed her lips and then smiled at her. "Okay, don't stay out too late."
She nodded and waited until her mother was gone before turning and heading back to where she had left the man. "Now, where were we...?"
(That's funny, I'm using my dad's computer, too, because my inverter stopped working and I've been waiting to get a new one for almost 4 weeks.)
