A/N:I have finally found the time to start a fic on my favorite subject and if you find spelling errors it's because I'm typing very fast right now and not looking up at the screen!
"pant pant"
Please enjoy!

Disclaimer:The sequal would be out right now if I owned Threads of Fate.
Alpha: He would also have the Dewprism, and wish that Duke would get a brain.
UU:Hear hear! And Rod would stop all this irritation at the word PINTO!!!

Rating:PG-13, due to violence, intense action, and Mint.
***************************************************************

It was a warm, breezy day.

For the passengers on the ship, it was paradise.

However, there were two passengers on the ship with troubled minds.

For years they had searched tirelessly for one thing.

One for need.

One for vengeance.

Both wanting their lives back.

[Relic]...

***************************************************************
Okay, that sounded like a movie trailer.

But it got the point across.
***************************************************************
Rue's POV.

Rue was thinking.

He had heard from some explorers in a bar that this country had valueble artifacts abound.

It also had a large history concerning sorcery.

Although it seemed like another bottomless lead, Rue had a feeling this was the right place.

Of course, he had had three years worth of these feelings.

Still, he had no choice.

He had to do this, it was the only way.
***************************************************************
After an abrubt halt, Rue got out of the ship.

He looked toward the exit to the docks, and saw the same girl he had seen on the boat.

Completely drenched.

She was muttering something about boats needing seat belts when she got knocked down by the two he had seen talking about the [Relic].

Being the ever-so kind and polite hero, Rue ran to help her.

"Uh.. excuse me miss? Are you alri-"

She jumped up.

"Am I alright? What do you think?! I just got pushed down three rows of crates, and you ask me if I'm alright?!"

Rue side-stepped nervously.

"Sorry! I was only trying to help!"

"Well I don't need any help! What is it with the world, always thinking that princesses are helpless?"

"Princesses?"

The girl stopped yelling, and visibly paled.

"Uh.. never mind, I was just rambling!" [A/N: I've never heard rambling that loud before.]

As the girl left the docks at a running pace, Rue wondered what she meant.
***************************************************************
Mint's POV.

That was stupid Mint thought as she ran into town. You don't go running around telling everyone you're a runaway princess.

She looked around town, choosing to see the rates of the larger, better looking inn.
***************************************************************
Being pushed out of the inn for insulting the owneres becuse of the 500G cost,Mint decided to check out the smaller inn.

As she came close to the door she saw the same boy she had seen at the docks exit.

Quickly going in so that he didn't see her, she looked at the registration book.

"Rue huh? What a weird name."

Writing her own down, she left for the main gate. She was heading for the forest with only one thing on her mind.

World domination, baby!
***************************************************************
A/N: Please review, and don't worry, it'll get better! From now on I'm gonna right from first-person view, so it'll be more interesting.

Alpha:Can you put me in the story?

UU:No.

Alpha: Darn.

Preview: Rue and Mint team up in the next chapter, and beat the Blood and Smokey into the ground. The adventure really begins next time!
