Crystal looked at her in surprise. This was her chance to make her father think that she was dead. That he had no chance of ever finding her ever again. This was the one thing that she had wished for.
She unclasped the now bloody necklace from around her neck. It bore her blood and her father knew that Arty had given it to her before his death. He would believe without a shadow of a doubt that she had been killed if he saw the necklace and the dried blood. It was all she needed.
"Take this back to my father. He will believe my death."
Crystal smiled brightly as she looked back at Angry. She would be able to live in the Shire safely. There would be no threat on the Shire or the life of her new found love.
"I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I shall not forget you and what you have done for me."
