So I've been super pissed off lately because all the stories on my FlashDrive deleted themselves due to a corruption in my University Faculty Computer. I tried to recover it but it was unrecoverable due to the corrupted system attempting to correct it on it's own. So I've lost everything that I've worked on for the last year and a half all I've got is stuff that's so old it's all backed up on an old Hard Drive...here is one such story. I felt bad for not updating anything in so long but I've just been so pissed that I haven't been doing anything. But I do have to say that I will be updating everything in the next couple weeks as the semester begins to slow down and all the students that give up drop.

Madison sat at her spot around the table silently picking at the remnants of her lunch. Xander had a new girlfriend and had taken her out somewhere, Vida had gone off to the mall in search of a new CD that even Toby didn't have yet, Chip had gone off to play some card game involving monsters with his friends, and Nick had decided that he was going to spend the day sleeping. So Madison sat, her sandwich resting on the blue fins imbedded in the tabletop as she continued to poke at her meal with a fork. Yes, she was poking a sandwich with a fork; it had come to that point.

It wasn't that Maddie felt particularly left out, it was more that Maddie was used to being a tag-a-long. At first it was due to the fact that Vida can be quite demanding and Madison was often forced to accompany her sister when they were younger. But as the years went on, Madison often found it easier to just go with the flow rather than try to force your desires on others. But it was times like these, when Maddie was alone with no thoughts on what to do with her time that she realized that she had absolutely no interests outside of her friends.

Madison huffed sadly and leaned against her hand when she spotted Udonna and Daggeron coming down the small set of stairs; Clare running to catch up with the two. Madison smiled; Daggeron. She had just rescued the knight from his curse the other day and he was already completely assimilated to the new environment he was thrust into. He smiled as he chatted with Udonna about old times and Maddie couldn't help but feel a little jealous. What was their relationship? It was her after all who had kissed him and saved him from the curse. Plus, he turned, literally, into a knight in shining armor…and he was really cute. How could she not feel jealous when she watched Udonna place a hand on his shoulder and smile at him? It was the first time Madison had ever felt this way and she felt childish and petty. Being like this over a boy…man wasn't something that she did; who was she Vida?

"Ah Madison," Udonna sputtered out suddenly, "I wasn't aware you were in Rootcore." Madison turned to look at the witch and plastered a smile on her face. It seemed that Daggeron wasn't aware that she was in Rootcore either as the surprise on his face clearly showed.

"My lady," Daggeron stated, bowing his head slightly in respect. Madison couldn't help the blush that snuck its way onto her cheeks as she tried not to smile more.

"Hi," she responded nervously, "I didn't know you guys were here either...I'm just gonna go for a walk in the forest." Maddie attempted to gather her lunch together and head out when Udonna stopped her,

"That was what we were about to do as well however Clare has just informed me of an urgent matter that I must attend to immediately."

"I did?" came the voice of the confused apprentice who was quickly shushed by her teacher.

"You did," she responded urgently, "However…I believe Daggeron is still free. "

"Udonna…" Daggeron warned.

"Perhaps he can accompany you on your walk," Udonnna continued.

"I don't need to be accompanied," Madison replied her face flushing.

"The woods are a dangerous place my lady; it would be my honor to accompany you," Daggeron stated, his hand extended as he moved toward her. Madison shrugged and set the lunch Tupperware back onto the table and moved toward him in response; letting him take and kiss her hand. She felt herself blush again and chastised herself in embarrassment.

As the two made their way toward the exit, Madison could have sworn she saw Udonna smile connivingly but she quickly pushed the thought from her mind and walked with Daggeron into the trees.
