Bean had yet ANOTHER argument with her father. Causing her to take off into the forests, granted it was an impulsive decision while drunk. Of course Elfo and Luci followed along, so now they were wondering and camping the forest until Bean decided to return to the kingdom eventually. Elfo constantly questioned what they were even doing, and all Bean replied with was that she was 'Finding herself and her destiny'. Which wasn't surprising.
It was late evening, the sun slowly setting casting a warm glow over the darkening forest. The three of them sitting around a camp fire, well, Luci was sitting in the campfire. bean sipping on her second backup flask of the kingdoms finest bourbon straight from her fathers chambers while Luci and Elfo kept bantering about something she wasn't really listening to. To caught up in her own thoughts and slight tipsiness. She stood up and snuck of while the two were to caught up with their bickering, making her way through the mostly silent forest, taking in the sounds of the trees rustling and the faint hoots of owls waking up.
She took a moment to stop at a small running river, taking a deep breath to take in the fresh forest air. Much different to the cigarette smelling halls of her kingdom. However, the sound of bushes rustling and a twig snapping broke her out of her relaxed trance. She glanced up from the running water towards the other side of the shallow river, straight to where the twig snapped behind a large bramble bush. Narrowing her eyes, she took a step forward, calling out.
"Hey! Who's there!?"
She called, raising an eyebrow as she watched intently at the other side of the river, her eyes widening as the bush rustled some more.
