Hello! Im finally back, and with the second chapter. Just got back from Christmas dinner at my grandmothers, we always have it the Sunday before. Thanks to my reviewers. Well, enjoy!
I had this written in my notebook, but it has disappeared, so I have to write this without it.
Oh, and Merry Christmas everyone!

Chapter 2
Alanna the Lioness and Keladry of Mindelan, also know as the Protector of the Small, sat in a small tent in the middle of a small Riders' camp. Kel sat on the ground, leaning back on her hands. Alanna stood, cleaning her sword.
Alanna sat down cross-legged on the floor, sat her sword in her lap, placed her hands on her knees, and said, 'So, what do ya need?'
'Well, you know Dom. And you know that we sort of well, like each other,' Alanna knodded, Kel went on. 'He's been acting strange lately. He avoids me, and whenever he talks to me, he gets tounge-tied, or he stutters. He never did it before, and I think something's wrong. I only really noticed it a couple days before we left. Do you have any idea what this is all about?'
Alanna put a finger on her chin, thinking. 'I'm not sure, Kel. Although...' her voice trailed off, leaving Kel to wonder what she was thinking.
'Although what?' Kel asked, suspicious.
'I think it'll be fine. Just... dont worry,' Alanna said, not wishing to tell the younger girl what she thought was wrong with her love.
'But-' Kel started to say, and Alanna cut her off.
'You should get some sleep.' Alanna shooed Kel out of her tent. 'We've got a long day tomorrow. Goodnight!'
Kel walked to her tent, not far from Alanna's, scowling. What was Alanna hinting at?
Was Dom going to do what she thought he would do? Alanna waited until the light in Kel's tent was out, then raced off to tell Buri the latest news, and to get the younger womans opinion on the situation.
I'll have at least one other chapter out before Christmas. I'd have more, but I've got two other stories and I've got to work on those too. I'll shoot for two more, though. Till then!
