Author's note: This story is not cannon, so if some elements don't match up with the game, just go with it. It is a Fanfiction after all, anything can happen within our little FAN-tastic minds. Haha see what I did there? Also, this story is unbetaed, so if there are any mistakes in grammar or spelling feel free to PM me about them (expect for the word unbetaed, according to fanlore wiki it is an "awkward but necessary construct").

"..." Fenris stared, with a slightly crazy look in his eyes, "What did you say?"

"I said, 'My name is Hadriana, but you can call me Hawke," Hadriana eyed Fenris curiously, "Why? Do you have some kind of childhood trauma where you can't call people by their last name?"

Fenris's mouth sharpened into a straight line, and said through gritted teeth, "Unless you call enslaved since birth, childhood trauma, then no."

"Oh, it seems I've struck a nerve. My apologies, truly. Now tell me, what exactly is your problem?" Hawke couldn't see the stormy anger, one string from snapping, behind Fenris's cloudy eyes. When Fenris didn't respond at first, he was too busy stirring in his old hateful memories, Hadriana let out a laugh, a -tuh-. That one string that was holding Fenris on, it snapped.

"My problem is that you are a mage bitch! Who happens to share the same name of another mage bitch. You remind me too much of her, if she were here I'd rip out her heart. Maybe you'd suffice, since you're just like that blood mage whore," Fenris's eye twitched, as did his glowing hand. Hadriana knew when to run when the going got rough, she was not wanted here any longer. If she lingered...it could prove deadly for her.

"Riiiight. Well, you go have fun with that and I'll just be going this way, and uh, you that way, yes? Yes." Hadriana slowly backed away from this crazy man threatening to rip out hearts. Andraste's ass, why would Garrett introduce me to him? And where in the Maker's name did Garrett go?

She made it a few feet away from him when Garrett mysteriously reappeared, "Ah! Hawke," Hadriana gave her brother, Garrett, a strange look: why was he calling her by their last name? "I've brought drinks for us all. I trust you two have gotten acquainted?" Garrett looked over to Fenris's steaming form, and looked back to Hadriana with a worried expression, "What happened?"

"Tell me, who exactly is she to you Garrett? Tell me before I kill her myself," Fenris walked up to Garrett with purpose.

Garrett stepped in front of Hadriana protectively, "My sister Fenris, and you should do well to remember that, because if you lay a single tattoo flaming hand on her you will soon find a dagger in your heart."

Fenris threw up his arms and vented his frustration to the skys in the Qun, good thing he did too; if Garrett had known what he said, he wouldn't have let him leave without a punch to the face as a warning.

With Fenris gone Garrett turned to Hadriana with an annoyed expression, "I know Fenris has a temper worse than an Orlaisian noble, but what did you say to make him that mad?"

"Nothing really," Hadriana shrugged, "just being myself, guess he doesn't like it." She smirked, "He's got a...thing...with mages doesn't he? What I find astounding is that you had the thought to tell him I'm a mage, but not my name, or that you're my brother?"

"Ah yes, well I had to prepare him for...you."

"What exactly is that supposed to mean?" Hadriana narrowed her eyes.

"Nothing at all sister! Anyway, the reason why I didn't tell him you're my sister is because I thought it was obvious, we are twins after all with the same last name. You did tell him you're last name yes?"

"I introduced myself as Hadriana, Garrett. That is my name,"

"You did? That would explain it, I had hoped that fact wouldn't be revealed until later," Garrett scratched the back of his neck.

"The moment I told him my name he went berserk! Well...not really, but he went full on crazy for a second. You heard him threaten me!"

"I swear to you he's not normally like that...most of the time. It's just that Hadriana is the apprentice to Fenris's former master. She tormented him, denied him meals, basically made his life a living nightmare."

"Oh," Hadriana went quite, she thought about everything she said. It all felt different now, she felt ashamed, and she didn't feel that way often.

"Yeah," Garrett set the drinks down on a near by table, and offered Hadriana one, she didn't accept it.

"I should apologize to him," Hadriana threw her fist in her palm with a smack. She said this so suddenly that Garrett almost spilled his own drink.

"Wait. You apologize?" Garrett laughed, "I don't think I've ever heard that!"

"I have apologized before! You know this! If I hadn't I'd probably be locked up in the Circle by now."

"Yes, but a heartfelt apology is different, sister. Fenris is not easily calmed, in fact I would wait a few days for him to simmer down, but not too long or else he'll stew."

Hadriana let out a hardy laugh, "You make it sound like we're going to cook him!"

"He's cooking himself."

Hadriana eyed the drinks on the table, "Maybe I should cool him down with one of those?"

"If you're thinking about splashing cold elfroot tea down his back, I would think twice. Maybe just offer him one, if you decide to talk to him today. Just...if you go to him today, be extra careful, I won't be there to stop him if he does anything."

"You forget brother, that I am a very capable mage."

"Yes, but you are also my sister and I would never forgive myself if something happened to you."

"Ah such sibling affection warms my heart, I love you too brother." Hadriana leans over, gives him a light kiss on the forehead, and ruffles his hair, as if she were the older sibling, "But you know me. Impatient Hadriana can't wait around to fix her problems!" She grabs two drinks off the table. When she gets to the door Garrett goes to open it, but before he can she nods forward and the nob turns itself.

"You shouldn't use magic here." Garrett warns her.

"Who's going to see?" She gives him a wink and heads out the door.

Garrett calls after her, "You don't even know where he lives!"

She turns around, "Tell me then, or I can figure it out myself!"

Garrett shakes his head in amusement, "Not with those drinks you arn't, you'd trip and hurt yourself. He lives up the stairs to the left by the Chantry."

Hadriana smiles, "I'd wave goodbye but..." She raises the drinks.

"Goodbye sis. And good luck, I don't need him all angry and distracted next time we tract down some bandit lair."

Hadriana turned away and made her way to the Chantry. During the walk she kept the ice frozen and her hands warm with magic, no one could see it and she had a strong magic barrier around herself so no templar would feel the magical energy. So what's the harm she thought? When she got there she didn't remember Garrett's directions. Which way did he say to go again? Shit-biscuits. I forgot!

The sun was setting and it would be dark soon, Garrett would be angry with Hadriana if she stayed out during the night. There were all sorts of gangs roaming the streets at night.

Just as the sun's last rays of light slipped past the horizon, a voice called out from behind Hadriana, startling her into spilling one of the drinks on herself. It was already a cold night, and the iced drink did nothing to help. She turned around to see Fenris. She probably should have run, but something made her stay. She was glued to the spot with an angry, blue, glowing, ex-slave, elf marching toward her with fire in his eyes. She should have taken Garrett's advice and waited a day or two. Yep. She was screwed.
