"Herre Lander"

[Galadas]

(( yep darkness song is correct ;D ))

Josha hadn't seen Hamma and he was shoked when she attacked Dixen and the other one. He wanted Dixen not to answer as he looked at his friend's smile he allready knew who the girl was, he knew Dixen from when he was young and he knew all his ways of talking. If Dixen told Hamma who he was looking for he would certainly not survive it.
"I have no reason to tell you!" Dixen said angry as he took his own knife hidded in his shirt and cut himself lose. Josha signed.

Why did her head hurt so much? Abigail studied her surroundings. She was in a small clearing in a forest. All she could remember was the sound of the captain shouting and the sight of some men chasing her, then there was an explosion, and then...nothing. Now she is here. Abigail turned her head to the left and saw the Unicorn she had met just this morning. She remembered the Unicorn's unique name. Halvia.
"Halvia, how did i end up here?" Abigail talked to the unicorn through her mind.
In a soft but somewhat strong female voice Halvia replied, "I brought you here Abigail. I promised that i would always be there for you."
Halvia stood next to Abigail like a noble pillar. Her body was muscular and pure white like the heavens. The sunlights licked her golden hair making it sparkle.
"Look behind those trees over there. What do you see?" Halvia pointed her long white and gold horn towards the bushes in the north.
"I see..." Abigail squinted her eyes. " Two people! Maybe they can tell me where i am."

"I hate the war! I hate the fact that it has started and I hate the Elves because of that!! if the Elves had never started taking humans as slaves we would never have started the war, than I would still be at home and my dad would still be alive." Vempre wanted to tell her everything, he had no reason to do that, but when she asked he felt he could finally open his heart and tell about his feelings."The war is a stupid Idea of solving this but the Elves have brought it on them, If we win... Humans will never be slaves again and I can finally go home. I don't care if we kill so many Elves when we enter the city, it's their own fault! I hate the Elves!" One simple tear fell down from his eye as he closed both."And you?" He asked Rave.

[Kyana]

Rave gave a sad smile. "I watched my parents die. The elves did it. They were going to kill me. But a woman lept infront of them; an elf. I don't remember exactly, but I remember her asking for them to spare me. That she'd take me in. They got into a fight, and I blacked out. Some how I guess I ended up a slave, but I never knew how rescued me, or how. She never showed up herself, and it was dark so I couldn't see well. I've always had this feeling though that I was being watched." Rave said. She'd never told anyone this much of her history. "Working under the elves, I don't know. I don't want any more death, but it must happen. How else is the death going to end...." she sighed. "There's no easy path in the near future."

[Kyana]

Hama startled, fell out of the way. The other man started to sit up, still in his stupor. She grasped his collar and hauled him up, showing her immense strength despite her size and age. he started to struggle free until she put a long shining blade to his throat. He looked terror stricken. She had his other arms twisted up at an angle so that he was immoble and if he did move he'd cause himself pain as well as possible breaking his arms. "No one move!" Dixen as well as Josha froze. Directing the question at Dixen she asked, calm and reserved, "Who is it you came for." it wans't a question, but more of a statement. When he didn't respond, she twisted her captive's arm to the side and he cried out in pain. "Tell me or he dies. His blood will be on your words." she snapped. In a moment she'd changed from a young, reserved, woman into a steel-eyed person. She didn't want to kill this person that she now held captive, but she needed answers and the only terms that these humans seemed to understand was blood.

[Galadas]

Dixen started to laugh." You don't understand much about us, Elf!" Dixen putted away the knife and walked towards Hamma. Josha closed his eyes and held his teeth to each other." We Humans like to let you Elves guess the answer. If you had been smart you would allready guessed it." He threw out a small note, A note on which Josha could see a drawing of person.
"Dixen!" Josha snarled.
Dixen turned his head to his friend, before taking out his large sword and running with its point directed to Hamma towards her.

[Galadas]

Vempre sighed." I hope that when I have children the war is allready over, I don't want them to lose their parents at a young age and live the rest of their lives without having to know their parents that well."

[Kyana]

Rave nodded, deep in thought. "my two mistress's that I worked with didn't treat me as other of the elfin people, though Mistress Hama was a little more than rigid at times. When I was younger, it was more that I was a companion than a servant, someone below them. All of us being around the same age and all... But things gradually changed from that, but I guess you can say were were still on good terms with eachother..." Rave said saying her memories and thoughts allowed. "You know, I've never told anyone that!" Rave exclaimed sitting up, realizing what she'd said. She gave a laugh. "Funny idea, right?..."

Hama pushed the human she held infront of her as a sheild. He'd get the blade point. And with her other hand flung out more silver daggers. One slammed into Dixon's side, but he still came on after staggering a little. Hama picked up the paper. Her image was there on it. "Wanted" it said, "Alive."

[Galadas]

Vempre smiled."Yes, A funny Idea." He said dreaming away. She had told things she would have never told to any one else and he also did.

Dixen Fell down as the dagger stabbed into his side. Josha came running after him, he knew that Dixen couldn't take much blood lose. He looked up at Hamma." They were coming for you!" He said as he kneeled down by Dixen and took out the dagger." Get up, Dixen!" He whispered.

[Darkness Song]

Laura watched the two talking, How convieniant they appear at the same tree she hides in. She climbed up the limb a bit and then sighed heavily before dropping the ten feet infront of the two. She landed and rose slowly shaking off some of the pain that came with the fall. She looked to Rave and gave a slight bow. "Evening Rave." She looked to her companion and did the same.

[Kyana]

{kk. Sry, just wans't sure. oh, I changed it. Thanks!}

Vempre looked at Laura, startled, but Rave burst to her fett. "Laura!" she said, her voice low and hushed tinted with excitement. She quickly grabbed her arm and pulled her into the shadows of the trees, Vempre coming after her. "What ARE you doing here?" If you're seen, they'll kill you!" Suddenly remember her formal composure, she realised Laura and bowed back. "I'm sorry, Mistress Laura. " she said, looking humble and regretful. Vempre glared at her, but kept his mouth shut as it seemed that Rave and Laura knew eachother quite well.
"So THIS is your mistress..." he said, his voice snappy.
Ignoring him, Rave continued. "They're going to attack the city....I'm sorry for betraying you Mistress, but..."
Laura silenced her. "I came here not to punish you, but by my free will."
Rave stared at her. "What?" she asked, a little suspicious of something.

[Kyana]

(oh, and hama didn't hit Dixen really hard. More of a knick )

Hama threw the other man out of the way, and he fell to the ground. Hama crumpled the paper. Josha, bent over Dixen looked up. "Move, Josha." Hama said, approaching, her long blade at her side. Josha was torn. "I said, get out of the way, Josha. I don't want to hurt you, but I will if I have to."
"You're going to kill my friend, though!" Josha cried. "
a burst of air shot through Hama's lips, ruffling her hair. "I promise. I won't hurt him." and to show this she tossed her long knife away. It hit the tree about ten feet away with a solid thud. It impaled the tree and stuck out there quivering. "Okay? Now move!"

[Darkness Song]

"Rave." Laura said in a hushed voice. "This war needs to be ended without blood. Stand up, I release you from your duties as a slave." She walked to Vampre and sighed. "I need to speak with your people, Or at least you do. There is a way to settle all of this without a drop of blood."
[Kyana another thing. how many knives does that girl have on her? she like used (in my mind) 10-20)

[Kyana]

(lol. I'm basing her off of a character. They're small. A little larger than the size of your two thumbs. So about 8 are loaded onto spring cuffs that are hidden in her sleves. 8 per arm, so about 16-20. Yeah, youre' right. And they can be reloaded. ;D)

Rave stood there. She was free... Legally too! Before Vempre could answer she lept up and hugged Laura. "Thanks!" she whispered into her ear. Laura was a little startled, but then hugged her back. She smiled. Rave stood back. She didn't feel too different from when she was a slave. Turning to Laura. "What is it?" she asked, eager to learn what Laura had in mind.

[Darkness Song]

"It is just a thought, that maybe we can make all humans like you Rave. As I have done. And there would be no bloodshed. But Hama, she is planing a way to kill all of the human rebels. I don't want bloodshed! I wan tmy life to the way it was a month ago. When I had not a care in the world. But we can't have that unless we give up the sla- humans." Laura said with a lot of thrown about emotions. She was sick of having to be locked in the city, Sick of the humans being treated like livestock. She just hated it all. She looked to Vampre "Could you help us?"

[Kyana]

Rave looked at Vempre. "That's a hard feat..." Rave said, but her heart was hammering away with excitement. "We're both there!" she said, answering for both of them before Vempre could say a word.

Hama was so intent on Johsa and Dixen she didn't see the other man get up and pull her blade from the tree. Suddenly she was thrown back. Her head hit the brick wall and red a back lights flashed across her vision. She felt herself being lifted. She knew a blade was being held to her neck, even though she was semi concious and tried to keep her head erect so she wouldn't slice her own throat. Dixen, as he'd been fein injury lept up, kicking Josha in the stomach. "Sorry, Josha, but we completed our mission, you just got in the way." And using ropes and hooks they climbed over the wall, carring Hama with them. Josha tried to stand, but the pain in his stomach was too great and all he could do was watch as Hama was being kidnapped (sry, I just have a small plan/idea in mind! ;D).
Through flashes of unconciousness, Hama was aware of being tied up and carried over someone's shoulder. Muffled voices filled her head. A nasty tasting cloth was stuffed into her mouth. She cried out, but her voice was muted by the gag. Blackness.

Joyus cries rang throughout the camp of the human army. Rave looked to Vempre. "What's that? Has the attack already started?" she asked.
"I'll go and check." Vempre said and walked over. Rave and Laura waited in silence. He returned shortly. "They have captured a High Council leader. They're going to exchange the elf for the run of Kaner city. I have a feeling that they'll also try and get information and secrets out of him and get her for what's he's worth. I don't know who the person is, as I only asked someone at random. I'm not sure of anything much but everyone's celebrating."
Laura shook her head. "No, I think unless you're mistaken, the High Council member isnt' a male. Not anymore. It's Hama."

[Darkness Song]

Laura looked up, her face was not that of shock, nor that of horror. She just simply looked up like she had been through this all before. She took her cloak and shrouded her head. "I must speak with her." Before they could say anything she moved into the crowd and made her way towards hama. They tried to stop her but she quickly blended into the crowd. She kept her head low and acted like a human.

[Kyana]

(yeah another loooonnnngggg one! ;D)

Hama finally awoke. The room was dark. She waited for her night vision adjust. Suddenly a blaring light came into view. Four figures came in, one of them Dixon. All had weapons.
"Hello skum." Dixon said.
The other man had held a air about him, which Hama immediately recognized. She bet he was the Norman Lord. "Hama Laci, is it?" he asked, looking at some papers at hand. She didn't respond. "yes, I suppose. You're doing your people a big favor, being here." he started, as if she was here by choice, that she wasn't bound by thick, cutting cord.
She gave a bitter laugh. "What, you think I'm here by choice?" she spat at his feet. "Stop with the antics and get to the point!" she snapped. Even in such circumstances, she was a reserved person of high stature.
He gave a cold smirk. "Oh? Well then," said he, surprised by her frankness. "You have been used as a ransom. Your life for our control of Kaner."
Hama tried to hide her surprise. She thought they'd captured her for other reason. "They'll never do it." Hama said, her face a mask of cold compassion.
"Oh, I think they will... And I think, while we wait, you’ll give us some wanted information…”
“Never.” Hama growled.
Taking her chin, he slapped her hard across the face. “You will.” then turning his attention to a man behind him he addressed him. “I shall take leave to my office. Do whatever is needed to get Miss Laci to speak here….” He paused. “I don’t want her dead though, so keep her alive, if needed, just barely, but if she does die, it’ll be on your head.” With that he left them, the three guards barring the door.

Hama spit up blood. She felt humiliated to be in such a position; weaponless, degraded to such torment, yet she wouldn’t let them know the secrets to Kaner. The door opened again. The Norman Lord stepped in again. “so?” he asked, looking at the ragged Hama, kneeling before him.
“No sir.”
“Well, it doesn’t matter much any more, I guess. As long as the deal and ransom go through.”
“As I said, they’ll never agree.” Hama said, bitterly.
“And as I said, they will. Bring him in."
Two guards dragged in a struggling elf. Hama immediately recognized him for her second cousin, Samual. Looking up, he saw Hama. "HAMA!" he cried. "You're alive---"
"Not for long." the lord interrupted. "and you want Mistress Hama alive, don't you?" Samual nodded vigorously. "Well then. You tell your people that and convince a swap. We’ll keep her alive, and well have her delivered, as long as you all leave Kaner and hand Kaner over to us. If this isn't come to by tomorrow night, you'll receive Hama's head here in a basket!"
Samuel looked stricken. He stared at Hama, tear rolling down his face. Hama didn't look at him, but looked to the floor. She felt his gaze fall across her broken self.
“Okay, drop him off at the wall…” the lord said dismissively. They gagged and blindfolded him again, so that he couldn’t get back to this place by memory and dragged him out again.
Hama closed her eyes, tired and even in her bound state, fell asleep.

[Kyana]

Rave raced after Laura, hauling Vempre after her. "Come on. We have to follow her...!" she urged as they made their way through the throng of people, but it was a lost cause. Laura had dissappered like a shadow. Rave and Vempre stopped. "okay, we've lost her!" Rave gave an angry breath to the air. "Lets ask more about what's going on, and see if it's really Hama they have captive somewhere..."

[Galadas]

"Why ask!" Vempre said."I'll just go to Lord Sudriel and look what he has to say." He took Rave by the hand again and spook to some of the soldiers, they moved away and the way was free. A big red tent apeared in front of them."Damn Magic!" Vempre snarled as the tent disapeared again."Lord Sudriel!" The tent came back, the Norman lord stepped out, he looked happy and lay his hand on Vempre's shoulder.
"What is it young one?"
