Abigail pov contd.

"Abigail" Isabella shouted as she felt the surface shaking and my eyes widened with terror too. I looked down and saw the lighting that was decorated on the corners of the ferris wheel was moving with the wind, the people were shouting and a crowd was collecting near the levers.

The ferris wheel was not the one which was operated by lightning like the modern world. Many wooden and iron levers were attached to its body and paddling was done to pass its energy. But visibly the lever that was handling it broke due to some reason, and now we are trapped in it.

We both were so lost in stating the facts and blaming each other that we did not even notice that the ferris wheel had stopped moving a while ago. Many had slowly started climbing down and only a few who were at a certain height were unable to do so, and we were the only ones who were at the highest point.

"Abigail, what do we do now?" she shouted as she moved towards me and clutched my hands. She was just a kid, so being afraid was normal when even adults were screaming for their lives.

"Nothing would happen, Isabella. Do not worry, I will protect you.`` I assured the girl as I looked around. There must be some way for sure.

I looked at the corners of ferris wheel and then at her, "Isabella, we have to descend through these spikes, it is a bit dangerous, but you can climb on my back and piggy back me, i will slowly get down holding you.\'\' I offered her it when she looked down and gulped.

"But it is too high. We both will fall." she shook her head like a rattle drum, afraid that i would not see it at once.

Another lever broke and the cabin shook again. The sound of screaming and shouting increased. And Isabella hugged me tightly, hiding herself in my arms.

"Look, we do not have any options. This may fall anytime. Then we both would not even get a chance to try. I promise you i will take you down safely.\'\' I rubbed her back to soothe and she slowly nodded her head, but the grip of her hands did not loosen a bit. 

I was the only straw that was saving her from drowning, so in this moment she forgot all the differences we had, and gladly accepted my support.

"Good, now climb on my back and hold me with all your might." I instructed her as I stood up in the shaky cabin and she slowly climbed on my back and wrapped her arms around my neck and her legs around my hips.

"Good, hold tightly ok" though it was very uncomfortable to have her on my back while descending that was the only way we had.

I moved as slowly as possible and held the wires with both hands tightly. Then I slowly adjusted my legs over it. When I was sure that I was stable enough, I took a step down.

It would be a lie if I say I was not afraid. If it would have been only me then it would have been different but having her had increased the danger tremendously.

"Lady Abigail, lady Isabella.." we both heard shouting of knights who saw us taking steps down 

"Abi, Bella.. Stay there, we have arranged a safety net." came the strained voice of my father.

"We are fine, dad. Try to protect those who can not do anything and are still trapped in the cabin.`` I shouted back as I took another step down and then moved my hands too.

Isabella, who was too afraid in the beginning, had also calmed down and the deathly grip she had over my shoulder and neck had loosen a bit so that I could breathe comfortably.

How much time had passed, when I noticed we had already covered half of the height, but when I thought that it would be easier now, another wooden lever broke and the whole ferris wheel shook again, making my grip loosen.

"Isabella hold tightly" I shouted as my one hand fell and only one hand was holding us both.

"Abi, Bella. Let it go and jump. We will catch you." Nickolas shouted and I slowly looked down, they had a large net in their hands. It looked like a fisher\'s net but much larger and stronger.

"Bella, shall we jump?" I asked for her opinion since she was still horrified.

"I.. I do not know. I trust you Abi, you will save me." For a moment I forgot where we were and smiled constantly. 

"That\'s right, Bella. I will keep you safe. Thank you, for trusting me." 

I saw a few others jumping from their seats and landing on the net safely. Knights held them and took them out of it.

"It is safe, Bella. I am going to jump. Hold me tightly, okay?" she nodded her head lightly and then hid it in the crook of my neck.

I took a deep breath and then let my hand go and jumped. We both fell down on the net, and my body bounced a bit. She was still on my back while I fell face on the net.

Her mother moved forward without even waiting for the knights and took Isabella in her arms and hugged her tightly. 

"Oh my darling, are you alright?" She kissed her forehead, her cheek and then hugged her again while I felt someone\'s arm holding me too.

I looked above to see my father was holding me tightly in his arms. His heart was beating so fast as if he had run a marathon. My heart felt warm looking at his worry filled face and a smile bloomed on my face.

"Do not smile my lady. You will be punished later." he scolded as his deep eyes continued to scrutinise my face and body to find the possible injuries. 

I winced as his hands touched my palm and he immediately let go of my hand as if it scalded him.

He looked down to see my bleeding hands and his anger rose.

"Abigail, you are grounded!"
