Disclaimer: I do not own anything except the twisted plots and the twisted actions. The ruler, Tamora Pierce, owns all the characters unless I introduce a new one do you think I should...oh sorry she owns everything but what my twisted insane mind creates.

Chapter One

Kel and Neal stared into each others eyes as they fought. Kel quickly side stepped a swing directed at her face. "Come on Sir Meathead, you are getting slow." Neal made his funny shocked that you would say that look and tried to trip her. Through her stifled giggles she stepped over his leg and reversed the attack. She brought her sword to the tip of his nose. "Do you submit?" He stared at her and nodded. She smiled an innocent smile and offered him her hand. She evasively let him take her over his hip and grabbed his shirt at the last minute and took him down with her. She sat on top of him and smiled. She turned a light shade of crimson when she realized the way things looked to others.

Dom, Neal's cousin, sighed a wistful sigh as he watched his cousin spar with Lady Keladry. He turned a very light shade crimson when Neal tried to throw Kel but she countered his attack and sat on him. She looked around and then got up. Dom smiled a big smile when he saw that Neal was very red from her beating him and her sitting on him. He grinned as he waved them to come over and join him on his way to the mess hall. As they joined him he smiled as Kel ran up ahead and pulled him into the shade. "I have been waiting for a long time to do this and how to explain it but...," she was cut off by Dom pressing his mouth against hers.

Kel stiffened then relaxed. She put her hands on the back of his neck and drew him closer to her. They broke apart as the heard Neal approach. They stepped out of the shadows and were acting like they had just been talking. Neal eyed them and said, "I already know so you don't have to pretend." They stopped in their tracks and they both smiled. "How did you know?" Neal grinned a huge smile. "I always knew it would happen! Oh how did I know what? Oh that I didn't it was a guess." He stopped grinning as Kel and Dom started walking towards him with a very cruel look on their faces...
