This is another "Kel gets kicked out" story. (I might change the title.. )

I just wanted to write my own one. I'm down with a fever (damn it!), and I just got this idea while doing ... Well nothing. I was really bored. But anyway, I wrote this really quickly so there's probably a lot of spelling - and grammar errors... I know that Kel is a little (maybe a lot) Out of character. But it makes it more dramatic 

-And I think people really react strongly when their dreams are crushed. Something like that…

To the readers of "Falling behind" I'm sorry!

I know I probably should write the next chapter instead of writing this…

But it seems that it's only with that story I'm having that mayor-writers block,

Well anyway, hope you'll enjoy this too 

Chapter 1 -not allowed to stay-

She was beaten, they had won. Keladry of Mindelan looked in the mirror. – She was only eleven and her dreams had already been crushed. She tried hard to fight back the tears, but it was more difficult than it had ever been. She didn't know what to do; she just sat there in front of the mirror, looking at her reflection. There was a knock on her door, but she didn't move. "Kel? Are you in there?" she knew the voice, but she didn't want to face any of her friends right now, especially not Neal. She stayed silent. And Neal quickly gave up, - probably thinking she wasn't there.

Now she couldn't hold back the tears anymore, and they rolled down her cheeks. She tried her best not to sob. 'I must be strong' she told herself, but she had a hard time believing in it. Her dreams had been crushed, how could she be strong? She wasn't allowed to fulfill her dreams, she wasn't allowed to stay. She wasn't worthy, just because she was a girl! She couldn't fight them back this time; it wasn't like fighting Joren and his comrades, - they were only tree, now almost everybody was against her fulfilling her dream, and how could she fight everybody?

Again someone knocked on the door, "Keladry of Mindelan, your carriage will be here soon" a voice said. She immediately got up, and opened the door. "My carriage to were?" she asked the servant outside. She forgot about her red eyes for a moment, and the servant ignored them.

Still looking calm he said: "Your carriage to the convent, Lady Kel". He turned around and leaved.

Kel stood in the doorway for a moment, before closing the door. She just stood there starring at nothing. Of course she was going to the convent! It shouldn't have been such a surprise; after all, were else would she go? Where else would they send her? She threw herself on the bed, with a yell of frustration, and grief.

It was dark. Like a ghost she made her way to the carriage. She couldn't say goodbye to her friends in person. That would be too painful, and too humiliating, and she already felt humiliated enough as it was. But in her hands she held a letter; she twisted it between her fingers, unsure of what to do with it. It was for them, all of them, Neal, Merric, Seaver, Roald, - All of them. She had written it just before leaving. She stopped before the carriage, where a small amount of people where gathered. Her family wasn't there, -her parents where at the Yamani islands, and her brothers where on duty. But among them was Salma the servant who had helped her a great deal, and encouraged her when some of the boys had destroyed her room. Kel stopped before her, and gave her the letter "Could you please give this to Nealan of Queenscove?". Salma nodded, and gave her a quick hug, whispering: "I still think you would have been a great knight". Kel could feel the tears in her eyes again, "Thank you". And that was the last thing she said.

As she was about to enter the carriage she was stopped. "I'm sorry, but it's inappropriate for a girl to be training as a knight. You would have snapped, and someday you'll thank me for this".

She looked into the eyes of the training master, but she didn't say a word. She looked away, and stepped into the carriage. She looked up at the palace, as the carriage brought her further away from her dreams. She couldn't say anything, she didn't want too. She didn't want to speak to anybody. Nobody, ever again…

She watched as the palace disappeared. She hadn't left anything but an empty room, and a note saying:

I wasn't allowed to stay,

But at least I know you'll all make great knights someday,

Thank you for your support.

I'm Sorry,

Kel

Hope you liked this chapter even though it's a bit short 
