Aÿla gasps and she runs towards the horse, which is infact her horse Emin that the guards tied to the tree when they took her. She unties it in all the commotion that is going on and she jumps up on him and she makes him run towards Natalie;
"Jump on!"

I narrowly escape some of the hands that actually dared to grab me, slap some of them hard and try to jump on the horse, which proves to be quite hard with all the long layers of the dress I am wearing... Somehow, clumbsily, I manage to get onto the horse and I push the gypsies head down, closer to the horse's neck, knowing what order my 'daddy' will now give.
Right I am.
"SHOOT THEM!" - he bellows, not caring that I am there now. They can shoot me... and that will be considered as normal, since I betrayed the Kingdom. I just did.
"Let's get outta here", - I mutter to the girl, desperately hoping that we won't be shot.

they ride as fast as Emin can run away from the crowd and the King and gunshots can be heard

I have no idea how we managed to escape without being shot or caught, but here we are now, comparatively safe. I take a deep breath, feeling so lost and quite unreal, as if I were sleeping and seeing a dream. Me, sitting on a horse with a gypsy, having told the King to 'f*ck off' and having no way-back to the Palace anymore...
What have I done?
"Where are we riding now?" - I ask the girl hoarsely.

"Back to the camp"
she says, cause it's the only place she knows of

"Aha..." - I say, 'cause I don't have anything else to say, to be quite honest. It feels like a very stupid situation and I don't know what I've gotten myself into... after all... I can't go back and therefore, I have to... start a new life, I guess.
When we come to a stop and I jump on the ground from the horse, I look at the girl and smile uneasily: "I guess, we should get acquainted?.."

Aÿla ties Emin to a tree in the camp and looks at her.
"I'm Aÿla...aren't you the princess?"
it's like she realizes now what they've done

I shift uncomfortably, shrugging slightly: "Well, I am... guess, was, not anymore, I think... Whatever, call me Natalie now".

she smiles at her.
"Well thank you for your help, but I'm afraid I have to get back there to get my friends"

I nod: "Predictable", - I tell her. - "Any ideas as to what I could do now? I mean... is there a place for me, since I can hardly go back to the Palace now?"
