chapter 2- chosing what to do
after a night of restless sleep I got up and acted like nothing ever happened. I dressed in the only dress I owned and went barefoot down stairs. When I got down stairs my wardmate eating table was full of worried faces. When I sat down one of my ward mates said "Who the hell are you". "Call me Sam Alan"I said unconsciously then with force in my voice I said "um why are you guys nervous". "Sam" said Luna "we know you are restless to". "nop only you do Luna" I said smiling. She reached over the table to slap me but her hand hit nothing then all serious again I said " No serious you guys you will all be excepted Luna you will be excepted into the couriers Alan into battle school Lilly will become a chef Gerome a scribe the only ones that should be worried are me and Sean that is when I burst out into tears that churned into sobs and this was the first time even Sean had seen me cry. I couldn't stop they just came out as an untamed storm of tears all the tears I had never sheed went out in the one minuet I sobbed uncontrollably. Finally I locked up to see four completely outstanded faces and Alan being very confused. "why is every one so surprised?every one cries"said Alan very confused "not her" Luna and Sean said in unison.
after one minuet of agonizing silence baron arald's secretary arived and told the fifteen year old wards to line up talest to shortest. I was first becouse i tower over most fully grown adults and definatly tower over my ward mates and at the end was sean who was a midget for our age. Rigt behind me was alan than luna then gerome and followed by lilly and as i said erlier sean at the end as we paraded thrue th castle grounds i realised i was to go first and had to have a first choice picked in one minuet so i thought and my mind wet to will treaty so i decided i would go with ranger expectully since i saw a movement out of my eye that did not belong there.
when we got to the barons office the craft masters where alredy there. Even both rangers stood rite next to the barons chair and one step behind. then the brons voice said lausdand clear "you will step forward and state your name and first pick, begin". I stepped forward and anounced without hesitation "Samantha Jane Moran Hampshire requesting to be a rangers apprentice" one of the rangers sliped a slip of paper to the baron. He qiuckly read it then he said " meet me an hour before dawn both you and sean, now you are dismissed" both me and sean lefted a litle puzeled. we headed strait towards our tree were I pulled out a map of the castle grounds. Then I said "ok you and i will climb up to sir rodneys office he will be on the floor below then we will silently go up the stairs you will go and read the note and i will ask the baron afew questions"
