Sword and Storm

Tristan-

I thought her offer over for a moment before nodding. "Alright, that sounds good. I'm not being held here against my will, but i was brought against it."

"Anything you can do with your illusions to make it look less suspicious"

I waved my hand and instantly the illusion of myself sprung up again.

"As long as no one tries to talk to 'me' while we're escaping, we should be fine." i said. I opened my conveniently large and baggy pocket and allowed her to slip inside. The fairy's body made a small bulge, easily fixed with another illusion.

"Ready?"

"Yep," her voice carried up to my ears. It sounded slightly muffled by my pocket.

"By the way, what's your name?" i asked as i neared the door.

-Aedomir

"No idea," he said.

Finn looked blankly back, studying Aedomir.

Aedomir, still unsure of company said, "I was exiled a few years back from the new rulers. I fought with the half-gods." She hissed at the taboo.

"I wouldn't say that around other people," she said

"Do I look like I care?" An uncomfortable silence reigned, and Aedomir stared at the tall blonde woman. "Sorry..."

"You know, I hear that the rebellion is starting to get more powerful."

"Do you think they could win?" Aedomir asked.

"Perhaps."

"I've just been looking for their base or whatever. I want to join. Sign me up! I say!"

Finn looked at him warmly. "I think I know where it is... Or on the map at least..."

"Could you get me there?" He asked startled.

"Like I said, if I knew where we were, then I could take you there I guess. I've got nothing else to do..."

The exile looked long at hard at her. "Come with me," he thought w moment before continuing, "I have a horse. We could find it... together..."

Jasmine-

She couldn't believe it. The girl she had just met fled from her. Like she was a monster.


"But why?" Jasmine wondered.


There was no point in dwelling over this. She had to find her brother Leo. He was all she had, and ever will have.

Sena-

Sena held herself up against the back of his pocket.

"Sena." She said up to him. She heard the door open and she peeked out a tiny bit. She watched as he walked down the hall, past the dinning room. She dove deeper into his pocket when she saw the lord sitting at the table lauging with some people. She climbed back up a little and looked out. She looked in front of him, the Lord's daughter was standing there with her pet dog. Sena saw it sniffing the air a little and she quickly pulled dirt up off the ground and covered herself in it covering her scent. She hid under a piece of paper in his pocket hoping she wasn't found.

Tristan-

I stopped in front of the young girl and her dog, my hand unconsciously shifting to block my pocket.

"Can i help you?" i asked, bowing slightly.

"Where are you going?"

"For a walk," i replied, thinking fast. "Out in the town."


>.< short

Sena-

Sena peeked through his fingers and saw the dog run past them towards the girl's room.

"Pepper! Come back!" The girl squealed running after the dog. Sena looked up at Tristan, she tugged on one of his fingers and then dove down in his pocket as he started walkig towards the door again. She peeked excitidly out of his pocket as he opened the door to the outside world. She felt a drift of wind hit her face and she stiffled a happy giggle with her hand.

Her eyes grew wide as she looked around from his pocket. There were tons of people and animals. She tugged on Tristan's hand when it moved past her as he started walking. "Can we go somewhere so I can come out. Please?" She breathed in again, it smelled wonderful out here, not stuffy at all. Tristan started walking towards some woods. When they got back there she lept out of his pocket and flew towards the trees. She dipped, spun, twirled. She laughed with glee as she flew through some leaves and then back towards Tristan. Her wings fluttered fast as she dipped and turned around a branch spinning around it and then landing on it. She smiled down at Tristan and then flew down towards him.

"So I have a question for you. What do you wish for?" She asked twirling around so that the small dress she had on couldn't keep up and the hem bunched around her feet when she stopped. Her dress changed size when she did.

Genevieve-

The girl who is supposidly Rai eyed Genevieve suspiciously. "What did you hear?" she demanded.

Genevieve inched closer toward the door behind her. "I didn't hear anything! I um... I should be going now." Genevieve turned around and tried to open the door.

The man who had pulled her into the room pulled her away from the door and made her sit on one of the chairs, holding her arms so she wouldn't escape. "Yes, you did hear something. Now tell me what you heard!"

Genevieve pulled away from the man knocking down a glass of water. She swirled her hands around in the air, the water rising off the floor and forming into a sword. Genevieve gripped the sword tightly, but after realizing what she had done, showing them who she really was, she let go of the sword. The ice sword fell onto the floor, quickly melting back into water.

The man and the girl Rai stared at Genevieve in shock. She stared at the water on the floor, and then back at the two people. Genevieve was trapped, they knew, and there wasn't anything she could do about it.

"She's a half-god..." said Rai in a whisper.

"I'm sorry but I must leave now!" replied Genevieve trying to run towards the door.

Gin appeared in front of the door so she couldn't leave.

"Move!" she yelled and tried to it Gin with some flying water, but he dodged and smiled,

"You have nothing to fear. We're not your enemy, We're with the rebellion." She slapped him, but he just stood there and took it, "I give you my word, if I'm lying, let me fall to death before your feet where i stand."

Genevieve-

Genevieve stared at the man, he sounded sincere, but she couldn't decide whether she should believe him or not. Genevieve's arms hung at ther side, she twirled her fingers around. The water floated up from the floor, forming into a sword in her hand. Genevieve lifted the sword up to the man's neck. The freezing cold blade pressed into his neck, but he stayed calm.

"Go ahead if you do not believe me," his voice was even more calmer, as if he knew she wouldn't kill him.

Genevieve pressed the sword harder into the man's neck, but not enough to break skin. Rai stood up and began to walk toward the two of them. "Rai, it's okay," assured the man.

"What if she really kills you though Gin?"

The man, Gin, didn't answer. He placed him hand on the sword and gently pushed it away from him neck. "See? I am not your enemy."

Genevieve turned her head away from Gin, letting the sword fall back down to the floor. "What do you want with me?" she asked in a hushed tone.

*Ack I missed so much!*

Rai-

"Gin is right, you can trust us. Besides if you had let me finish my sentence before you panicked, I would have said 'She's a half-god TOO'." Carefully Rai opened her fisted hand and let the lightning dance between her fingers. She looked over at Gin and bit back a laugh, he looked shocked. Well, only the rebel leader knew she was a half-god.

Rai sat back down on the bed and looked over at the other girl. She still couldn't shake the surprise off. Someone from her own RACE. She'd never met another half-god and couldn't help being curious.

But for now she needed to focus on the mission. "As for what we want, you're hardly stupid. Rebels in a Krayan town at this time of year, could only mean one thing. Right?" She smiled over at the other girl. Further shock tore through her as the smile actually reached her eyes. She hadn't genuinely smiled in two years, it felt strange.

Tristan-

I blinked, looking at the tiny fairy in confusion.

"'scuse me?"

"What would you wish for if you were granted one wish" she asked, tilting her head to the side.

I bit my lip. "Well, i would wish for my memory back but i don't really think i want to remember..."

She stared at my intently.

"Uh..." then a thought came to me, making me smile. "An apple."

She pursed her lips. "That's it? Why an apple?"

I nodded. "Yes, that's it. And an apple because i haven't had one in so long now..."

Sena-

Sena blinked again. "You sure, I mean you only get one, are you positive you want that. We could go find one somewhere I'm sure." She said tilting her head to the side. "Cause sense you helped me you get one wish." She pulled her knees up to her chest holding them there as her wings kept her up. She was puzzled what was so good about an apple. She had had one once, it wasn't that amazing. It was good, but she wouldn't wish for one if she could wish for anything else.

Tristan-

I smiled, seeing Sena's confusion.

"No, all i want is an apple. After all, it wasn't all that much i did for you. It wasn't difficult. And plus, there are no apples anywhere in this region. Not for many, many miles in any direction. Yes, all i ask for is an apple."


>< Short!

Sena-

Sena frowned and then nodded. She closed her eyes and opened her hands. She took a deep breath and imagened an apple. She felt it form in her hands and then start pulling her towards the ground. Tristan caught her and she smiled,

"These are heavy when I'm so small." She smiled up at him.



**Grrr, not better*

Jasmine-

The fairy girl exited the forest. She could not find the other girl anywhere.

"What are you doing here? Little girl??" A man yelled.

It was a Krayan warrior. Jasmine stared at him, not answering him. Two more appeared.

"Well?" He asked again.

The warriors came towards her. Jasmine stared at thier swords.

"Fine if you won't answer me then we'll make you talk." He finished.

"Please, turn around and walk away." Jasmine told them.


They laughed. A fight was going to happen, no doudt.
