《The Girl in Red》2

I didn't know what to be more mad at. The fact that I was called a silly little girl or the fact that I had just threatened one of the most powerful men in the kingdom. I was about to courtesy when I realized there was no point.

"Oh" I said in a quiet voice "Sorry for hitting you, but for your information I am not just a silly little girl wandering around the woods with nothing better to do." I tried to speak with determination, but my voice cracked midway through and I saw him stifling a laugh.

"It's okay. You can admit that you were lost, I would gladly walk you to your house" he said with a smirk on his face as he stood up off the ground.

At this point, I don't care if he is the king of Alynthi, I would have still punched him in the face. However, I retrained myself from landing a one way ticket to the dungeon. Instead I explained what I was doing out so late at night.

"I am not lost" I exclaimed, "I practice shooting arrows, using daggers, and wielding swords at night as a hobby. If I did it at home, I would give my father a panic attack from doing such un-lady like things. I have been coming here for the past 3 years and plan on continuing to go here so, please if you do not have any business with me, be on your way."

"Now hold on, if you say you are practicing how to use weapons I may be of use. Go on shoot some arrows, I would like to see for myself." He said as he stood back and leaned on a tree to his right side.

"I most certainly will not!" I exclaimed, "I am not a source of entertainment and I do not need your help. You best be on your way to your prince."

"It's alright" he said with a sigh. "I understand you are shy to show me because you can not use weapons correctly. I guess I was right, you are just a silly, little girl."

He was definitely saying this just to get under my skin and want to prove him wrong. And he succeed. I drew back my bow with my arrow as he turn around and aimed it an inch past the top of his head. My arrow flew past his head, cutting a few hairs at the top of his head.

He quickly turned around with a pissed off look on his face and yelled "Are you mad? You could of my-". Before he could finish his sentence I turned around and aimed for the center of the three ringed circles. In a second, my arrow was straight in the middle.

I turned back to face him and enjoy every second of seeing his shocked face when I whispered to him "I don't miss". I then grabbed my things and headed back home before the sun started to come up and people realized I was missing.
