What a surprise it is to see you here,” Cinderella said when she realized who stood with her in the back alley. Cinderella rubbed her stinging side as she boosted herself into an upright position. She lost her balance and toppled over the side. She climbed up only one layer of the blocks when a voice behind her said, “So you’re the lawbreaker that’s been evading my men for the past year?”Ĭinderella shrieked, lost her grip, and fell back on the crate. She placed her hand on her hips and glared at the wall before she tried climbing up, wedging her fingers and feet in cracks and gaps between the stone blocks that made up the library. She hung there for the barest moment before her arms gave out, and she fell back on the crate. She jumped and her hands brushed the window sill, but she wasn’t strong enough to pull herself up. Cinderella piled several planks on the crate before she tried again.Ĭinderella stood on her tip toes, and still lacked the height. She was still too short to reach the wooden sill. A patrol wasn’t due for a few minutes, but one could never be too careful.Ĭinderella retreated to the window and pushed a crate against the wall. Cinderella traveled the back end of the building to peer around either corner.
