Harry heard the bear before he saw it. Harry looked at Ashley with a worried face, but Ashely remained calm and took out her bow. Harry did the same, though not as calm. Suddenly, a black bear emerged from the trees around them, and reared up in a angry growl. Ashley grabbed Harry's arm. "Run," she breathed. Harry nodded and ran fast, faster than he had ever run before. Ashley was right behind him. Her black hair streaming behind her. They could hear the bear crashing behind them, and the ran even faster. Suddenly, Harry was lifted into the air, and Ashley went up beside him. Harry struggled at his left foot, which had a thick vine tied around it. He heard the bear grunt in satisfaction and walk away.
A young woman stepped out of the bushes and into the clearing. She stared at them hard, and smiled. She was wearing a mossy green cloak with a vine pattern on the back, complementing her maroon hair and pale skin. She wore a golden crown with a precious emerald in the very center. "Hello, didn't realize the border did you?" the girl inquired. Harry gasped, he must have been running so fast he didn't realize the Earth Clan border. He realized also who she was; the leader of Earth Clan. Ashley must have noticed the same thing, for there was a loud whisper from her that sounded an awful lot like no, but the girl took no notice, she simply turned around at the bushes and called two names, but Harry didn't hear the names because of the blood rushing to his head. Two men dashed into the clearing. Harry felt like they had been watching the two of the Water Clan hunters, and wanted to be back in his tent, even in the hunting woods they were just in. The leader told the two men something, and they walked swiftly to Harry and Ashley and untied them. They both fell to the ground, and once Harry was up, he helped Ashley to her feet. The girl simply smirked and led them away.
