Fred forced several soft plants out of the ground and placed them under
where he thought that Astra would fall. He then climbed the tree as he did
before (Nearly a couple of times. It had been a long night) and got back
into the same position he was before the queen of fey arrived.
"Last chance to change your mind" said Fred once again, but then sighed and proceeded to cut after receiving Astra's dark glare. Only seconds later did the rope snap. Fred heard Astra's body collide with the thick bushes he'd laid out for her. "Your highness, are you alright!" Fred yelled, looking below.Astra, who was lying face down on the bushy plants, gave him a thumbs up, pulled herself up, and began gagging on leaves she had swallowed. By the time Fred had climbed back down, Astra had gotten the plants out of her system and a message written in the dirt for him. "Thanks, but we had better get out of these woods. If I'm attacked, they will be no way to call for help."Fred couldn't have agreed more. Slowly, he'd begun to head in the direction he thought was to the beach, but found that Astra wasn't following him. "Your highness-" Fred said as he turned around, but was dumbfounded when he saw Astra, stomping on a circle of mushrooms."No!" scream Fred, regaining his voice. "What are you doing? Do you want her to come back?" Astra said nothing---not that it would have mattered if she'd have tried. Before Fred could decide what to do, she had crushed them all. She clapped her hands together, walked over to Fred, and gestured him to go forward. He sighed. If she continued to act like this, it was going to be a very short adventure.
