I was back at the house in my room with Bow. Both of us sitting on my bed.

"He was going to ask for your hand!" She screamed I covered her mouth to keep her quiet. "That’s why you ran... You know as soon as you left the pirate ran after you." She said excitedly.

"I know I was with him in the woods... But that’s not the point Vronderos is going to try and ask for my hand!" As soon as I said it I felt sick in my stomach. Walking down the isle and having to say 'I do' to someone as self obsessed as him. Bow gave me a squeezing hug.

"You don't have to say yes. Silvana all you have to say is the big N and O NO!" We held each others arms and smiled at each other. "You know what we should do? Let’s go out hunting in our other form!" She squealed excitedly. I looked at her shocked! We're not aloud to change form without someone with us we could get into so much trouble if we were caught!

"Sure why not?" I smiled and we were soon at the window. Bow was first to jump out grabbing a tree branch climbing up on top of it. She gestured me to come out I was about to, and then I heard knocking at my door. "I'll meet you at the river!" I mouthed to her. She nodded and jumped off the tree and ran deeper in the woods. I straightened my nightgown. "Who is it?"

"It's me your mother! Who else would it be?" I put on my robe and opened the door. "We have not had any bonding time together." She said pacing right past me. She sat on my bed and gestured me to come and join her. I sat next to her and looked at her suspiciously. What does she want at this time of night? "What do you think of Lord Fotheros's son? Quite handsome right?" She asked. I stared at her blankly.

"Yes I suppose... On the outside he is." I hesitantly said. She looked disappointed.

"I think he is wonderful on the inside..." She said but didn't seem sure. I so badly wanted to tell what a prick he really is. "You don't fool me Silvana I saw the way you were dancing with him," My goodness has she gone around the bend. She's completely bonkers! The venom was trickling in my mouth. I was starting to get a little tense and stiff up my spine.

"Mother! He is not wonderful he is not the brightest man alive in fact he is the opposite!" I hissed at her. My mother stood up instantly, so I got up quickly.

"How dare you speak like that? Silvana how could you say something as horrible as that?" She said. The blood was rushing through my veins.

"Oh believe me mother that is first nice thing I have said ever since he has been here!" I said fuming. She looked horrified at me.

"Silvana I will not tell anyone of your insolence as long as you try to like Vronderos." My mother hissed. Believe me mother I have tried! I wanted to say but she stormed out slamming the door. I waited until I couldn't hear her footsteps then ran to the window. I tore my robe off and jumped out. I landed on my feet then ran through the trees. I felt my skin hardening and changing to green scales. My fangs were coming out my legs were shortening soon I had no legs just a tale. My arms were gone to; I was no longer running but slithering over rocks and twigs. I stuck my toung out to smell where Bow was. Her sent was near by but it was mixed with another creature, I followed the smell and found Bow being a boa constrictor in her snake form strangling a female deer. I saw the poor deer struggle to get free, I just watched it looking at me wide eyed and scared. Bow soon let the deer go and let it run free, I held my head high and cocked it to the side as in saying what are you doing. She faced me shaking her orange red scaly head saying that she just couldn't do it. Knowing Bow she couldn't hurt a living soul unless she was very upset or was threatened. So instead we started exploring.

I slithered up a tree and rest my self on a branch my whole body circled round to hold on. Bow stayed on the ground feeling adventures as usual. I was in no mood to explore I was too irritated I could tell Bow could sense my irritation because she looked up at me. I avoided her gaze and concentrated at looking at the trees.
