Chapter 1
Disclaimer: Tamora Pierce owns everything except I should.
Alanna looked outside her carriage window excited unlike she normally was. She was going to the convent! She remembered her brother the day her father had said that she was going to the Convent and Thom would become a knight. Her brother had asked her to do something she would never say yes to.
Flashback
Thom hit his hand against the wall hard enough to bruise " I don't want to become a knight!" he yelled when they were in his room. " I hate hitting things. I want to become a sorcerer and do great deeds for great foreign kings and their court." He whispered softly, smiling the dreamy smile he always wore when he imagined his great future. All of a sudden his smile ended and he looked at Alanna with pleading puppy dog eyes. "Hey Alanna. Do you think we could switch? I mean you can't possibly want to go to the convent and become a lady and I certainly don't want to become a knight so...?" He finished quite lamely. Alanna stared at her brother as if he had sprouted two heads. "But I want to become a lady and marry someone I really love, and admire,. A knight and who loves me more then I live him." She said and sighed wistfully and then put on a dreamy smile that she used when she imagined her future. .
End Flashback
Alanna shuddered at the thought of switching, going to the convent had been her dream since she was five years old when her great aunt Millanne (a/n I know that that is not her great aunts name but deal) had told her about it.
The coachman said that they were there and Alanna quivered with excitement 'This is going to be so fun!' Alanna thought as she smoothed her turquoise skirts and stepped out of the coach, excepting the hand of the coachman who opened the door for her she looked up at the gray stone walls and the windows and sighed 'this is where I' belong she thought. The Mother standing by the gate to the convent nodded at her curtsy and said in a very cheerful tone "Welcome to the convent my daughter" and led Alanna to her rooms.
