Penelope was aided by Abraxas in fighting off the last of the bandits. The knights were much more skilled and,despite being out-numbered, were able to easily drive away the bandits. She let out a breath and sheathed her sword. Her breathing was a bit ragged now, as was William's and Abraxas'. 

"I'm going to go make sure they aren't regrouping for another attack. Stay alert!" William ordered. He gave no one the chace to reply before mounting his horse and riding off into the coverage of the surrounding woodlands. Penelope only gave a nod that was never acknowledged. 

Penelope then turned her attention back to her previous job, which was keeping an eye on Crow. She peeked into he backof the wagon, quick to realize that the thief was not there. She gave a furious look and turned her head towards Abraxas. "Abaraxas! Keep alert and start looking. He isn't in the wagon anymore!" she announced.
