Perhaps it's just a short story? Perhaps her getting free is the end of it, it's just the tale of her being trapped and then getting free thanks to the origami bird (which is a beautiful image and you could quite easily craft a whole short story out of that!) Perhaps the freedom is the important point and they just fly into the sunset and vanish softly and suddenly away.
*laughs* Looks like usually, too many plots appear for you but that can be okay - the idea of writing is you keep spilling them out and then prune like mad afterwards (I often tell myself this when I get to a bridging scene and just want to get to the next part - my bridging scenes regularly just become "FUCK IT THEN SOME TIME PASSED."
My only advice here (I feel a bit icky trying to give advice so do feel free to disregard it) is trying to work out what the journey is. The character starts somewhere, goes somewhere, either ends up somewhere else or back at the beginning. You don't need to know all the details of the journey (I never do when I start) but I always try to have an idea of "Here then there." Obviously, sometimes as you write, the "there" changes but it's always helped me anyway!
