that night we had dinner with king tyler. my new friend and guarding was hidden in my room.
all of us where dress nicly.
we all sat around a large table.
we were eating food. when a messanger came in..
"your majesty a serving girl is missing!" they told him.
tyler nodded...
"find her and bring her to me!" he told him.
the messanger left.
i sighed.
"shes with me!" i told him.
tyler eyes glowed. he knew why i said that.
he smiled...
"bring the girl hear if you please!" he told me.
i nodded.
i contact her. she was on her way.
a soft knock at the door of the dinning area appeared. the door opened. in stepped gem.
she was nervouse.
"right under my nose and you winch happened to be the next heir?" he told her.
gem flinched.
i got up. as did joanna and heather. we stood beside gem.
gem bowed to me...
but didnt speak to tyler.
"she is safe with me and under my care!" i told him. tyler glared at me.
but nodded.
i let a breath i didnt know i was keeping.
all four of us sat down.
a plate of food was given to gem.
as we ate...
i looked at julian. he was lost in thought.
"when are you leaving?" tyler asked suddnly. we all looked at him.
"tommorow...i told him.!" the others nodded.
i couldnt wait to get out of here.
"of course...i was hoping you could stay for the ball im planning!" he said slowely.
i shook my head.
"sorry...but we must keep going!" i told him.
he nodded. his eyes where hard as ice.
"well thank you for dinner tyler. we must get some sleep! we will be leaving in the morning!" julian said to him.
"where are you heading next?" he asked julian.
"still going south!" i said him.
he looked annoyed that i was the one who answered.
"well thank you for your hospitality...!" good night king tyler!" i told him. the girls got up to.
tyler eyes where still icy.
all of us girls left...
i pulled gem to me.
"stay with me tonight!" i whispred.
she smiled and nodded.
we all went our way when we got our rooms. heather and joanna was across from me.
so i felt safe.
a maid showed up and gave me and gem some cloths to sleep in.
as soon as we got into bed. we fell a sleep.
**************
the next morning we were all dressed.
gem was given some cloths and a cloak.
as was heather.
all nine of us left the castle.
then we left threw the gates of flure.
i was so happy. i started to hummm.
everyone chuckled
"we are never going back there!" i told the group.
the all had a say in it. but agreed with me.
the wolves came out of hiding with our horses.
our things still in tact on them.
i hugged moon.
she licked me.
gem was shocked. a beautiful pink wolf went to her. her name was angel.
we all got on our animals and headed south.
we needed to find that ruin that was shown to me a while back.
the ride was tuff and hard.
we had to stop and rest. when we did it was back to training with a stick.
the other girls to were getting lessons.
heather was the fasts. she was a blur with a sword.
joanna practice with throwing stars or knives.
gem was good at her flame and magic.
me i was excelling in all.
except i had one problem...
my flame.
it had to much power...
i tried lityle thing with it..
like lighting a stick or using it for light.
i sighed as i watched the other girls with the flam excerisze...
i was done for the day...
so i went in search of food. moon came with me.
we hunted for two hours.
we finally got a deer. well i did. moon was just there for support.
as i took my bow an arrow out...
moon grabed the deer and we went back to camp.
there the men cut it. i didnt watch how it was done. it made me sick.
as were done eating...
julian got up.
"follow me amanda!" he said as he headed towards the woods. i got up and followed.
"i want you to focus on this tree...i want you to clime it with your feet!" he told me.
i looked at him like he was crazy.
but i tryed anyways...
i calmed my mind and reached for my power.
then with out thinking i climbed the tree with my feet. it felt weird..but i did it.
i sat down on a large branch.
julian was smiling...
we heard a whistle...
"i could never do that!" mike said.
the rest nodded there heads.
i jumped down doing a back flip. i landed on my hands and feet.
"give me your stick shane?" julian asked him. shane threw it to him.
then mike threw me his...
is the first match iv ever had with julian.
we circled each other...
i attacked first...
then we were at it.
the sticks smacked hard.
it was about an hour till one of us tired out.
at least is what i thought.
that thought got my stick up in the air.
before julian could touch me with it. i jumped..
did a twist...
and grabed my stick and landed behind him..it was so fast and instincts that clicked in. my stick was at his neck.
"good...very good!" he told me smiling.
i nodded...
we all went back to the campfire.
we snuggled into our blankets and passed out.
as i slept i dreamed of him...the grey flamer. he was dressed in a silver cloak...
"who are you?" i asked him as i sat down on the growned.
he chuckled...
"im trace!" he said." im hear to give you lessons..!"
i moaned....
"please i get enough lessons when im awake!" i said.
he laughed...
"these are special ones!" he stated.
i sighed...
"oh all right...but i better get enough sleep or im going to be cranky!" i told him.
he nodded...
off to work i go...
i sighed when will it end?
