Disclaimer: I do not own anything of this film franchise.

I saw something on a Willabeth fansite about a challenge and thought this might fit one of its first prompts, that being 'arrow'. It's from Elizabeth's point of view and I'm sure you can guess the scene already judging by the title. Please let me know what you think. Enjoy.


Battle of wills and words.

Neither wanted to be the first

to lose.

Shots fired back and forth,

Goodness and Freedom.

Both wanted them,

Craved for them,

Needed them.

Bloody stupid compass does not point true

Its arrow is wrong.

My love is elsewhere,

of that I'm sure

Held prisoner by his captor.

And now I wait for us

to be reunited

Once more
