Prince's Log
April 30, 2009
"I've been in this foreign land for some time now, I've got no idea how I got here and my mission, or why I'm here, remains a mystery. I'm living in this place, I'm just waiting for someone to come and take me away on an adventure, a way to bring excitement to my dreary existence." I placed my log book in my backpack and sat down, weak from my journey. The door to the convenience store opened with a ring and a woman stepped up to me, "Forgive me for asking this, but are you here with anyone?" the blond woman seemed shy.
"Why is it that you ask?" I asked gently
"It's just that, I saw you out here and you looked lonely, like you're waiting for someone."
"No, it's just me, I'm a drifter moving from place to place." I replied
The woman, who stood 5 feet 4 inches tall and had shoulder length dirty blond hair, walked up to a horse, motioning me to follow her, "This is Mysteria, she's been with me for three years now." I looked at the woman from head to toe, a thousand questions running through my head, what was her name and why was she being this nice?
"I'm Gabrielle," the woman said extending her hand, "You are?"
"Society calls me Prince, nice to meet you."
Prince, what a fitting name, Gabrielle thought.
"So, who's your friend?" A voice came from behind Gabrielle, "Oh, this is Xena, she's my mentor." After we were properly introduced, Xena, a taller and darker haired person compared to Gabrielle, mounted her horse, "Time to go Gabrielle, say good night."
"I swear, sometimes sometimes Xena acts like she's my mother." Gabrielle whispered, quietly chuckling.
Gabrielle prepared to follow her mentor, but stopped and looked in my eyes, "You should come with us, it wouldn't be too much trouble and besides, Xena and I could use the company." I thought for a minute before answering, "Sure Gabrielle, I'll come along." I mounted Gabrielle's horse and hesitated.
Gabrielle gave me the warmest of smiles and pointed to her sides, "You can hold on to me, honestly I don't mind, if it keeps you from falling and injuring yourself." shyly, I took hold of Gabrielle and we rode into the setting sun.
Well, this is only the first part, things will heat up in the next chapter, but until then, please read and review!
