Tavington pushed the new colonel out of the way. He motioned for her to follow him. He led her to a secluded room off of Cornwallis' office. He closed the door behind her.

"Okay, let me begin this conversation. You need to know three things about me Moore. One, I don't any crap off of anybody. Two, don't think that because Cornwallis likes you that you'll be anything but laughed at by most of this fort. Three, do not even began to assume that you are above me or that I will listen to you under any circumstances. Now that we have that done with, would you like to say anything, Colonel…?"

Moore smirked but did not get up from her chair. "I do not know what you think you're doing, but your need to calm the heck down. We need to check on the troops now Tavington, so come on." Colonel Moore walked out of the room with not a care in the world. Tavington was left in the room with an extremely puzzled look on his face. He wouldn't allow her to get out of this so easily. He still wasn't quite positive how she had gotten away this time. But she wouldn't last for long.

Tavington caught up with Moore as she crossed the main courtyard of the fort. He didn't allow her even a small glance as he passed in front of her. He then proceeded to lead her to the soldier's barracks. "God damn that woman!"

When Tavington entered the Green Dragoons barracks he was surprised to see his soldier's lying down. "Excuse me men, but I do believe I am the commanding officer here! You should be at attention." Before he could finish his men were at attention and awaiting orders like they should have been when he walked in. "Good, do not let that happen again! Because if it does I will have someone's neck, do you understand?"

"No, Colonel Tavington I will report them and they will deal Cornwallis, Understand? It is not good for a leader to lose his cool in front of his men; it tends to make them more disobedient. So, Colonel, don't let it happen again, do you understand me?" Colonel Moore appeared very annoyed when Tavington turned to do his uniform checks.

Tavington would deal with Moore later; it was time to let his men know what Moore really was. "Colonel Moore, These are the Green Dragoons. The roughest, most disciplined company of men in the entire British Army."

"I can see that very well for myself, thank you Colonel." Moore walked up and down the ranks, looking at her new mission. She had to make sure that they would not get blamed for the unrestrained discipline of their commander. She was passing through the ranks when a snicker came from the next flank back. She wouldn't take that, at all, from any one. She walked toward the rank from which the snicker came. "I have one thing to tell every single one of you about me. I don't take any crap off of anyone!" Moore stopped right in front of the perpetrator. "This includes you!"

The soldier stared at her, as if she hadn't said anything. "Did you hear me?" The soldier didn't say a word. "You either answer me or you will be made example of."

The soldier smirked and answered "How are you going to make an example out of me ma'am? I only take orders from Colonel Tavington, not a woman in breeches and a red coat."

"If that's the case then I don't think you'd object to me helping Tavington by checking your uniform?" Moore smiled shyly. "I don't mind ma'am as long as you realize I am a man."

"Of course, I'm not that daft." Moore brought her hands up to straighten his jacket, but instead hit him square in the chest. This hit knocked him back as it took the breath from him. The soldier flew back into Tavington as he was doing uniform checks. .

"What the bloody hell!" screamed the soldier as he got off of his commanding officer.He started to walk toward the new Colonel with a very evil look in his eye. "If I were you Colonel, you would watch your back." he snirred when he mentioned her rank.

Colonel Moore just looked at him for a moment, this was not going to end pretty. "You, sir, will not insult me again. If you do I will be forced to make an example of you to all the men. That is all I will say on the matter."

"What would you do sir,bring me to Cornwallis. That fat, lazy man doesn't scare me a bit. Neither do you. Who exactly do you think you are, anyway? You waltz right in here and take our Colonel's position, and you expect no rebuttle. If you thought that was going to happen, then you are more ignorant then I thought. Why don't you just go back to England." There was an eiry pause for a moment. He started to slink off. "Lazy, stupid b#."

Moore had stood there in silence long enough. " Get back here! You insult me, then slink off like a mangy dog. You have no honor then."

The soldier stood in his tracks. He turned slowly then looked back at Moore. "My honor is not at stake her, Colonel"

It's about to be, thought Moore. She would do something about this now, and be done with it. "Soldier, meet me outside, at 3:00 today. You will defend your honor, and we will decide if you will stay here." She turned. Then she looked back, "Unless your afraid you'll be beat by a girl."

Tavington, who had watched the entire thing, chuckled. She certainly knew how to make a man angry. She would be beat though. Moore had made one mistake in that entire ordeal. She had challenged the best swordsman ,other then himself, in the Green Dragoons. This meant, she would be gone by tomarrow.
