Evelyn stood, as still as a statue for what felt like hours, but was probably only in the space of a few minutes. The small leafy shrubs that surronded her ankles tickled her bare legs and she longed to reach down and scratch them, but wasn't brave enough to move. It wasn't until she heard the definate sounds of a male growling low in his throat, then the sounds of hoofbeats against dirt road fading into the distance. That she dared to relax. She let out a breathe that she hadn't realized she had been holding, the forest too seemed to relax with her and all of a sudden in a rush of noise. The forest returned to her; birds whistled in the trees, wind whispered to her and the earth moaned forlornely. Evelyn let the tiniest of smiles creep across her jaw...yes they had escaped. Well she had atleast, at this stage she was still unsure of whether the boy had followed or been caught. But she was glad she had managed to save her own skin.

Stretching her legs that had grown stiff from the tense way she had been standing, she leapt nimbly from her hiding spot into the smashed trail she had made in her blind dash through the forest. Human ears would not have been able to detect the wheezing, gasping breaths that sounded like thunder to her, from behind a large fern bush. Grinning in realif for the boys safety, she leapt over to the fern in one lithe bound and threw his hiding across. "He is gone, you can come out now." Her eyes swept over the boys frame, a little surprise at the effort it appeared to have taken him for the run. Teasing laced her voice as she grinned and said; "I thought stealing horses would be an occupation that would require fitness?"

She stepped back a few paces to allow the boy some breathing room, he looked like he needed it. Goofy grin still plastered on her face, she suddenly became once again aware of the fact that her garments hung off her in shreds. Blushing she drew the tattered remains around herself, aware that she looked quite indecent. "What be your name? I'm Evelyn." She let her hand drop to where the boy was sitting, in the intention of helping him stand.
