-Snow Maiden25

"Sabariel! Come back!" Nuala's sweet voice traveled over the grassy hill as Sabariel ran up it. Long hair falling around her face, she turned to look at Nuala with a smile. Years flew by and now they looked as if they were both in their late 20s… and this is how they would stay for a very LONG time.

"Its hot, lets go swimming, Nuala, come on!" She said gesturing down to the lake where some other elvish maidens swam about.

"But, we will be naked!"

"Along with other girls, yes we will. Do you think our bodies are different from theirs in anyway?"

"No, but still—"

"Ohh! Come on Nuala!" She ran over and grabbed Nuala's hand and the two moved towards the lake.

Nuala looked almost like a doll, with the markings on her face she shared with her brother. Her long hair was white and the tips yellow, wearing her favorite blue dress with a golden belt she was pulled along.

Sabariel had long blonde hair like Nuala and Nuada… but there was a slight difference. She had no markings on her face and her hair had slight highlights of gold in it. Her body was small like Nuala's, only slightly more curved, which caught the attention of many Elvish warriors and men in Bethamora. Even Prince Nuada was known to let his eyes wander when she walked by.

"I don't think so… I mean, Nuada is coming to get us in about 30 minutes, we are suppose to go to that tournament…" Stated Nuala as Sabariel unbuttoned the back of her dress and then turning around Nuala undid her dress from the back.

"Well, he will take a while to find us by which time you will know he is here and we can dress and be ready to go."

Nuala muttered under her breath something about Nuada throwing a temper which Sabariel ignored.

Finally both girls naked they dove into the lake and swam about.

"See? Isn't this better then burning up in those dresses?" Said Sabariel with a sigh as she floated on her back. Her pale white body was like a becon in the lake.

"Sabariel! Stop floating, people will see you." Nuala was already clutching a lily pad close to her.

Taking her friend's advice she let herself fall into the water and swam back to Nuala and smiled at her.

"You know… Nuada hasn't been joining us on our adventures as much as he use to." Commented Sabariel softly.

"Well we are swimming in a lake naked…"

"Exactly! Why isn't he here?" teased Sabariel. Nuala gasped and laughed splashing her friend in the face. Sabariel returned the favor. "Stop it! Stop it!" squealed the Elven Princess and swam away from her best friend.

Suddenly Nuala froze. "He is here…" Sabariel slowly turned around… wet hair hitting her face as she gasped seeing him on the bank, sitting watching the two women.

Dressed in a black tunic with the royal symbol on his stomach accented by a red sash, his silver lance strapped into his belt sat Prince Nuada.

A smile came to his face and he pushed back a strand of hair and walked onto a large rock that stretched out to where they swam.

"I expected you to both be dressed and ready for the tournament, instead you decided to jump in the lake?"

Nuala opened her mouth to speak, treading water trying to stay up, she held onto a rock and looked at her twin. "It is hot, brother, we just wanted to go for a quick swim." She said innocently, looking over at Sabariel who glanced at Nuada.

"Its true, and I suggested it. It is very nice feeling, how can you wear that garment, Prince Nuada? Black? It seems far to warm to wear such a tunic." She addressed him as Prince Nuada now as was proper.

"Lady Sabariel? You have become quite an influence on my sister." Nuada beant down onto his knees so he was almost looking her in the eyes, the water dripped down her face and hair so perfectly. Nuada made a quick glance downwards the water distorted any good view of her body he would have received.

"Perhaps I should take a swim before the tournament as well?" He teased with a smirk and reaching up to touch his tunic and pull it off. Sabariel and Nuala both let out cries and Nuala said something quickly in Elvish. Sabariel splashed Nuada in the face and laughing dove down into the water, disappearing and coming up next to Nuala at a safe distance.

Nuada brought his hand up and wiped off his face and his eyes flashed in annoyance at Sabariel, then once again appeared in that flash, Lust and desire. He stood up and said "Sister, dress and bring along that little animal with you." He spat out with that he stalked away.

"I think he is angry." Said Sabariel after a long silence and smiled, walking out of the water and drying off in the sun. Nuala followed and they combed out their hair and pulling on their dresses walked back to the palace. The tournament was set up next to the palace, walking into the stands for the Royalty and nobility the two girls took their seats.

"Princess Nuala! I will win this tournament for you." Called out one warrior. Nuala looked down embarrassed and reached out for the hand of Sabariel. "He will win the tournament, but will he win the battle of your heart?" Asked Sabariel with a smile.

"Lady Sabariel!" Called out another warrior with a lance of his own walked forward, he walked past Nuada as he spoke. Prince Nuada spun around as someone spoke to Sabariel, the next words sent heat flowing through his blood. "I will win this tournament for you and give you the looser's lance."

Sabariel looked surprised and then to Nuada's surprise, she blushed and glanced down. Nuada walked over to the man and said. "And if I win the match, I will turn this man's lance into a necklace and the give it to you." He said before he could stop himself.

Silence descended on the area at the Prince's words, all eyes turned to Sabariel for her response. She took a deep breath and said. "Well, both offers are spectacular and I will be honored by either gift." She said looking at the Prince and the warrior.

As the two men took their stances they stared each other down. Nuada felt fire in his blood. He would make that lance into a necklace for Sabariel. She would wear it, he may even have a jewel or two put into the necklace to bring out her eyes.

The bell rang and Nuada began to spin the lance about quickly, around his head then his waist and it extended. He ran at the other warrior.

The man brought up his own lance and the duel began, they were almost evenly matched. But Sabariel's face drove on Nuada's quick and powerful thrusts. Sweat beaded on his forehead and his hair moved about as he kept up his movements.

Finally Nuada hit the rival's lance and it snapped, landing in the dirt.

"The victor is Prince Nuada!" Called out the Chamberlain, a white creature with long spindly fingers. Nuada reached down and picked up the lance and looked at Sabariel.

Her mouth was dry, and now it was wet, his movements were almost hypnotic and seductive, she could see his muscles flex every now and then.

Prince Nuada flicked about his own Lance and then it went back to its smaller form, he laid it on both the palms of his hands and said. "The victory belongs to your name, Lady Sabariel." He bowed his head to her. She stood up and blushing walked over to the edge of the stand and pulling out a scarf with her family crest embroidered into it, she tied it around the lance and bowed her head to him.

"I thank you for the victory, Prince Nuada, Silverlance."

Silver Lance, a fitting name for the warrior prince, a name chosen from the lips of an angel.

Looks like Nuada is beginning to feel more and more for the Lady Sabariel. Review!
