Sooo... this is mostly about a movie that Jill and Haar go see. But it's going to be a great movie! I hope...

The Knight
Chapter 1:
Choose the Movie!
*********************************
The wind whistled through the night air, becoming colder by the minuet. Nights were some of the coldest parts of Talrega, and the people who reside there can say it was not cold. The wind started to pick up speed, sending all of the innocent people walking about to cover under their jackets and each other. With the exception of a tall, brown haired man and his young, red haired companion, who were more interested in the paper they were reading than the cold.
"Which one do you want to see?" Asked the tall, gray-eyed man.
"You expect me to choose, Haar? You're the one who asked me out!" said his companion.
"Sheesh Jill. I only asked because if you leave the decision to me, I'll pick the girliest one out of them! You shouldn't leave me that sort of power." Haar said, jokingly.
Jill laughed. She hadn't expected Haar to ask her out. Well, she wouldn't exactly call it asking her out, he was 'baby-sitting' her after all. But still, they could've done what they always do, Jill be a brat to Haar, Haar be a jerk to Jill. But he asked if she wanted to go to a movie instead. She wasn't complaining, though, she liked it when she hung out with Haar, it was a lot more fun than her training sessions, where he throws an axe at her.
"Fine, gimme the newspaper!" Jill said, snatching the paper from Haar's hands.
Haar smiled. He liked it when Jill was in her playful mood; she seemed livelier then. He was glad that the pink devil (Marcia) told him to take Jill to the movies. The only problem was, he had no time to choose what movie. He was already outside the General's house when Marcia approached him.
The General…
Haar could hardly believe the General could trust him to watch over his daughter. Sure they were friends, but the General knows he doesn't get along with kids, particularly Jill. She was bad-tempered, loud-mouthed, outspoken little girl. She always was, and more than likely, always will be. He never understood the General when he asked him to watch her when she was three, or four, or five…and so on. He and Jill always got into little arguments, about random stuff that really have no meaning. He even made Jill so mad, that she threw chair at him. How the General could get past that so easily, Haar could never understand. Haar doesn't mind now, though, because since she got older, they could talk more, and get into fights less.
"Okay, All I know is that I don't want to see the pony one for sure…" Jill said, still looking at the paper.
"Okay, that's one down. Let me look at it again." Haar said.
"Sure." And Jill handed over the paper. Haar took it and opened it to the movie listings. He read and re-read the names, and descriptions of the movies.

"Ummm..Jill?" Haar asked, looking up from the newspaper.
"Yeah Captain?" she said, skipping ahead of Haar.
"Can we say no to the space-bunnies-pirate things?"
Jill stopped skipping and turned around. "Are you serious? Yeah! I just wasn't sure if you wanted to see it. I mean, I know some guys that actually like it, I wasn't sure if you were one of them."
"Alright then…" Haar said, scratching out Space Intruders3: Mancok Lives. "What about the other two? They both sound a little… what's the right word. Girlie? Well…I guess more along the lines of romantic… the pony one was girlie, to the point of sickening sounding. But I don't know, which one sounds less romantic?"
Jill walked back to Haar, and snatched the paper from his hands. She looked them both over. Honestly, she didn't like the sound of either one of them. The Knight sounded a little better, first off it sounded medieval, so it could be cool, and second, it wasn't a sequel, so it wouldn't be confusing.
"Well," Jill started, "I guess we might be better off with the knight one. Sounds better anyway…"
"Okay, we'll go see that one then."
Haar took the paper from Jill, folded it up, and then he put it in his jacket pocket. As they got nearer to the movie theater, the wind started to let up. People were coming out of their refuge of each other, their jackets, or buildings. The people started to crowd the street that was just empty, mere seconds before. With the rush of people coming out, Haar had to walk a little faster to catch up with Jill, so neither one of them would lose the other. When they finally got in line, Jill saw something that made her freak out.
"Aw shoot!"
