The next week, Elizabeth woke to the sound of knocking and movement outside her door. She wondered what time it was. The moon was still shining in the sky, casting some light into her room through the window. She was immediately awake and sitting up in her bed, fumbling on the nightstand for matches to light the candle so she could see. Once it was lit, she slid out of bed and moved quickly to the door. She could hear Tyler’s voice. He was upset, but his voice was low and anxious. She pulled open the door and stepped out into the hallway.

Tyler and Jake were moving about in the den. The door was ajar, and she pushed it open to see what they were doing. Tyler looked up at her as he pulled on one of his boots.

“I’m sorry to wake you up, Elizabeth. Something’s happened to Barbara and Jerry. I have to go see what’s going on.”

“Do you want me to come with you?”

He didn’t respond right away. He did want her to go with him, just because he wanted her company. But he didn’t want to put undue pressure on her, either. He thought quickly and said, “I would love to have you there for support, Beth, but if you don’t…”

“Give me a minute to get dressed.” She interrupted him and turned to move quickly back to her room. She pulled on a pair of the pants he had bought her. She wore a thin fabric shirt under a large, warm shirt so that when it heated up outside, she would be able to take the top one off. She was surprised by how much she enjoyed wearing a completely different style of clothing. Last year, she would never have even considered putting on a pair of men’s pants (though hers were made for women) and such a casual shirt.

She was back out of the room in a short five minutes. Tyler was waiting for her in the hallway and held out his hand to her.

“Jake went to saddle the horses.”

“Do you know what’s happened? Any details?”

Tyler’s face was pinched with emotion, his jaw set. “Jake said it looked like they were ambushed on their way back from dinner.”

Elizabeth was covered in chills. “Ambushed? By bandits? Robbers? Are they all right?”

Tyler shook his head and pulled her gently as they went out the door. “No. I don’t think they are all right.”

Elizabeth swallowed instant tears. She could see Barbara’s face in her mind and hear her voice from just the day before.

“What about the baby?”

Tyler shook his head again. “I don’t know, Beth. We can only pray for the best.”

Elizabeth did just that as she rode quickly behind Tyler and Jake. It was a clear night; she was thankful for that. She had dozens of questions rolling through her mind. How had this happened? When had it happened? Why had it happened?

They reached the scene surprisingly quickly. It had happened just a few miles from the Creek farm.
