the bolts off with.”
    “Sounds like a good idea, let's try it.” Kane moved off to bring the horses back and Wollfen looked into Dark's eyes, tears stained her dirty face.
    “We are going to get you off the tree soon Dark, hang in there.”
    He squeezed her hand and she managed to weakly squeeze back, it helped. He turned to Solynne.
    “Hold her hand would you? Kane and I are going to deal with the bolt cutting.”
    Solynne nodded taking Dark's hand and smiling at her, she cupped her face too for comfort. Kane kneeled down with pincers in hand and looked carefully to where he wanted to place them on the bolt but there wasn't enough room, Dark was still firmly against the tree with the bolts holding her there.
    “Wolf? We need to pull Dark forward a little to expose some of the bolt for me to cut it.”
    Wollfen gave the area a close inspection and agreed, then he leaned back and looked into Dark's eyes once more. He could see she understood what he was going to ask even before he asked it.
    “I have to pull you forward on the bolt a bit and it is going to hurt like shit, I'm sorry but there isn't any other way.”
    Dark nodded slightly as she agreed,
    “I know, it has to be done.”
    She hardly made a sound when she spoke, she was weak and in so much pain. Dark had already almost passed out twice. Wollfen nodded without a word and leaned back in behind her, placing his hands down her back, she whimpered a little at the discomfort. Then he gave a little tug and Dark's body pulled away from the tree a little. She cried out loud and shivered, the wave of pain traveling through her body. Tears began to flow freshly and Wollfen couldn't help but feel so sorry for what she was going through.
    Kane lifted the pincers into position and once he had good purchase on the bolt snapped them shut fast. The crack of the bolt releasing was loud and again Dark cried out in pain. Wollfen held her for a minute till the pain subsided then he moved to the other side.
    “Okay hon, this time it will be a bit easier, the bolt is already exposed and I won't have to pull on your arm, but it is still going to hurt when we cut the shaft.”
    Again Dark nodded, this time closing her eyes and waiting. Kane knelt down once more and cut the bolt off just as before. She cried out a little again but she was free falling limp into Wollfen's arms. The two bolts were still in her body but at least now she was no longer pinned.
    “We need to get her back to the village to a healer, we can't remove the bolts here, we don't have any bandages or medicines.” The other two agreed. Solynne looking on wondered what they were to do?
    “How do you want to handle this? A three mile walk won't work and we haven't got a wagon either.”
    Wollfen looked around and then finally shrugged his shoulders,
    “I guess we do this the hard way, I'll get on my horse and you two lift her up to me so I can cradle her, then it will be a slow ride back to the village.” He looked at Dark, “Dark, are you up to that?”
    She quietly nodded, her eyes were closed as she focused on dealing with the pain. She managed to whisper quietly,
    “Let's get it over with.”
    Solynne knelt down and cradled Dark as Wollfen let go, then he got on his horse while the other two slowly and carefully lifted Dark to her feet. She grimaced through the pain as fresh waves hit her. With Wollfen leaning down from his saddle and the other two on either side of Dark they managed to get her seated sideways in front of him on the horse, then the other two mounted and fell in behind as Wollfen led the way on a very slow ride back to Comberwell.
    Dark's head rested against Wollfen's chest as they rode, his arms on either side of her body holding his reins and keeping her in place. From time to time she would look up and study him, watching his gaze as he rode along. Even know she found him interesting. It was almost two hours before they got back to town and they made their way to the healers residence
