Prologue: Celebrate
Disclaimer: All the main characters (I invented a few) belong to Tamora Pierce. The only thing that's mine is the plot.
[Auther's note: I am basing this on the Immortals series.This is a story about what happened after Numair proposed to Daine.
This will begin with everyone coming as Cloud said they would in the end, and will go to when Kel (from the Protector
of the Small series) meets Daine. Enjoy!]
Daine and Numair walked over to greet Onua, Kitten and Tkaa as they came towards the willow tree.
"Aar- I mean - Numair! You're alive! Daine! How did you find him?
"I wasn't actually looking for him.....I just stumbled upon him."
"Hmmmmmmm, said Cloud, "you 'stumbled' upon him. What an interesting way to describe ramming him against a tree and
then-"
"Enough, Cloud!" scolded Daine. Numair's looks told her that he was extremly curious about what Cloud had said.
Numair told them they should go back to where everyone else was. "I want them to be able to celebrate my life," he
joked.
When they arrived back, the king and queen were delighted to see Numair. Others were asking "Big Blue" what had
happened with Daine. Soon everyone was crowded around Numair and Daine. Numair whispered something to the King. The King
grinned, glanced at Daine and the walked a few feet away.
"I have an anouncment, or I should say Master Salmalin has an anouncment." He had everyone's attention.
Numair cleared his throat. " I would like to say that Daine and I," he said, nodding to Daine to come over," are
betrothed." Here Daine started to cry with joy. "Also, I am thinking about becoming a juggler again." Everyone laughed,
including Daine. "So now, let's celebrate victory and our engagment!"
Everyone cheered. Onua started crying and ran up to Daine. She gave Daine such a big huge Daine got the wind knocked
out of her. All the animals near by started running around with joy.
Looking around at ragged and wounded soldiers, Daine thought: I'm gald they have a reason to celebrate.
