The gift giver

THE ADVENTUE CONTINUES

They reached the ash forest.aliah stopped in her tracks,is this it she asked.Yep should be sia responded.So they walked and walked and looked and looked and finally after what seemed like hours the reached the path that would lead them to the tree hopefully.i was wondering do you know how far we have to walk till we find the tree asked sia.no I dont.well I hope it's not a long time I'm starving.It was true they had been at this hunt for almost two whole days without food.im sure we will.i think that somehow this giver lady is tricking us.why would you say that? I don't know I guess it's just a bad feeling I have.i don't know I guess I can kinda feel it to it just seems like getting my aunt back is just way to good to be true.like that's to good to be true asked sia.aliah looked to where she was pointing,ahead of her was a big ash tree with tons of thick spindly branches.o my gosh it's the holly ash gasped aliah.she slowly,cautiously walked up to the holy ash and plucked a brach that was hanging low as though enticing her to grab it.yes said a voice on the will that will do.aliah turned around to catch the faintest outline of the gift giver smiling at her.when the image faded away the wind started to pick up and suddenly all around the branches of trees started to pluck and tear at them as though persistent to swoop them off of their tired feet.And suddenly aliah found herself running for her life fighting and squeezing through the thrashing branches of the ash trees.when she reached the edge of the forest she lay panting and suddenly she felt a excruciating pain in sideand felt the heavy hand of failure weighing her down.she had lost the stick and her best friend.then her world spun and went black.
