"We head into battle at dusk." Charming said, looking at the group of men sitting around a table.
"We head into battle at dawn." Robin Hood crossed his arms.
"If we head in at dusk, we can get a sneak attack on them." Charming explained. The other men sitting around the table nodded in agreement.
"Yes, but if we head in at dawn, few will be awake and we will have the upper hand." Robin retorted. The men around the table muttered in agreement.
"Enough!" Charming shouted, slamming his fists on the table. "We head in at midnight," he said coldly, slowly standing.
"Now, if you will excuse me." Charming walked into the other room.
Sabrina laid on her stomach in the Hall of Wonders, writing her daily journal entry.
What are we gonna do when it's over? she wrote. Are we gonna move back to Manhattan, or will we stay here? What will Dad think if we stay here? What will Granny and everyone who we've met here think if we leave? Sabrina sighed.
She was used to making decisions since her and her sister had been put into foster homes, but now she couldn't even decide whether she wanted to stay in Ferryport Landing or not. And since she was an Everafter, she couldn't just run away to New York City and wait for someone to realize she was gone.
Then somebody walked into the Hall, and Sabrina looked up, closing her journal. Puck was looking behind him at something on the other side of the mirror. He turned to face Sabrina.
"Uh, dinner's ready," he said.
"Be there in a sec." Sabrina replied. Puck nodded and exited the Hall.
He's so cute. Sabrina's eyes widened, realizing what she had just thought. Nope, I did not just think that. She stood up and walked back into the real world, feeling a cool breeze blow past her like a greeting.
"There you are, silly, c'mon." Daphne said, taking Sabrina by the arm and leading her over to the dinner table. Everyone was ravenous, and ate their weight in food. Sabrina poked at her dinner, really not feeling that hungry.
"You gonna finish that?" Puck asked, his mouth full of bread rolls. Sabrina rolled her eyes and couldn't help but smile.
"You know, you're gonna get fat if you keep eating so much," she said.
"It doesn't matter what body shape I have, you'll still love me," he smirked, shoving an entire chicken breast into his mouth. Sabrina knew he was only teasing, but she hated that he was right. And she hated that her cheeks decided to turn bright red after he'd said it. Puck burped and wiped his mouth on his sleeve. "Besdies, my metabolism is so high that I could eat a whole elephant and not gain a thing."
"It's creepy that you know that." Daphne said. Puck chuckled.
"I don't mean literally, Marshmallow," he said.
"Oh," Daphne mumbled. "But it's still gross," she crossed her arms.
"You're gross." Puck retorted. Daphne stuck her tongue out and blew him a raspberry; Puck returned the favour.
Sabrina snuck away from the table and returned to the Hall of Wonders. She laid down and opened her journal again. Elvis trotted inside and laid down next to her, putting his giant paw on top of her little hand. He licked her face and Sabrina tried to direct his tongue away from her mouth, giggling.
After dinner, everybody went to bed. Daphne curled up next to Sabrina. "Do you think we'll win?" she asked. Sabrina paused.
"We'll see at midnight tonight," she replied. Daphne pouted.
"But I won't even be there, and I wanna be there when we win," she complained. Sabrina stroked her sister's hair and kissed her forehead, sighing.
"It's not safe, Daphne, it's better if you stay here with Red, Pinocchio, Tobias," she said softly. Daphne nodded, then drifted off to sleep. Veronica walked in and kissed her daughters goodnight, draping a blanket over them.
"You sure you wanna go out tonight?" she asked Sabrina, who nodded in response.
"I'm ready, Mom, don't worry," the girl smiled. Veronica gently smiled back.
Midnight came sooner than everyone expected. By 11:45pm they were still running around trying to organize things. Sabrina stood in the middle of it all, ordering people around and preparing battle troops. What if they didn't win this attack? How many people would they loose? Questions like that kept racing through Sabrina's mind and she didn't notice Puck approach her.
"Hey, so," he said. Sabrina jumped a little, snapping back to reality. "The old woman and practically everyone told me that I have to protect you...so here I am," he shrugged. Sabrina smirked and raised an eyebrow.
"Puck, you don't have to lie if you want to spend time with me," she said.
"I wasn't lying, pussface, don't get cocky. I'm the egotistical one, not you." Puck retorted, making Sabrina giggle. "Wait, did you just admit that you want to spend time with me?"
