Annie looked surprised. Then she looked angry.
"Let go of me!" she shouted.

"Let her go!" yelled Jack. "I promise I'll take herhome!"More guards arrived. The crowd began to shout,"Arrest her! Arrest her!"The guards kept pulling Annie away. "Jack! Thestory!" cried Annie.

He held the story up to the sky.
"Save Annie!" he shouted.
But Jack's voice was again lost in the roar of therace as the four-horse chariots barreled through thedust.
Jack looked around wildly for someone- orsomething-to help them.
