Hope you like this one it was a little rushed but I put lots of thought into it beofre I started writing
Disclamer: only charicters of my own in this story are Shade, Dill, Vine, Rat, and later some new deicates will pop up to join in on the fun! .
Shade felt his energy draining as it came closer and closer to light. He pulled his hood up to cover his face from the sun. Dill was finally beginning to stir. Shade had a hand over his mouth before he could so much as yawn.
Dill turned his head as far as he could to glower at his twin. In twin talk mostly a well read body language Shade managed to convey the need for utter silence to his brother. Dill merely nodded when he finally understood. They knew each other well and with time being close to someone can allow you to read nearly all of their emotions from body language alone. Dill himself was more questioning and reassuring while Shade's was stiff and frightened.
'Why Must We Remain Silent?' Dill mouthed the words to his brother who rolled his eyes in annoyance.
'Pirates you fool! We went onto a ship full of pirates!' Shade mouthed his reply slowly carefully shaping each word.
Dill looked at Shade incredulously. Shade motioned for Dill to follow and to remain silent. Shade led Dill up to the cabin door looking out on the deck he gestured for Dill to look.
Dill slid forward and look out onto the ship. First thing he noticed was no women and children we're aboard this ship. Most trader ships at least had kids his age on them and all had women.
Dill swallowed hard before turning back to his brother and nodding gravely showing that he understood. They we're stranded on a pirates ship.
Vines eyes burned when she awoke. Her and Rat had cried themselves to sleep. 'Ow…' She thought grimly. "Your up?" Rat croaked her voice worse for wear after the night of crying and fitful sleep. "Yea…" Vines voice was also very soft and it hurt her to talk.
A thud a the door caused them to look and see a guard. "Your lucky you get an early trial, It's at noon." The guard said.
"Lucky for whom…" Rat grumbled her voice sounding like something grinding against the stones in their cell.
The guard ignored her and left. Vine shrugged at her cell mate.
"Least we don't have to sit in here wondering and crying in fear for the next few days…" Vine said with a soft sigh.
"I don't know what's worse… I suppose I'm glad I'm not alone…" Rat murmured messing with the violate hair she had pulled from Vine. Vine smirked wryly and nodded.
"Hey who knows we may get lucky and be saved by a mage and become like Briar Moss!" Vine laughed trying to change the subject. Rat grinned an shook her head.
"Maybe you ink girl but I don't have any magic or strange incidents that happened around me!" Rat chirped.
"Hey what's with the nick name!? And at least I didn't have a animal go crazy and attack the guards…" Vine muttered blushing in her annoyance. Rat winced.
Vine shook her head muttering and apology and Rat suddenly grinned.
"Not a big deal Ink Girl!" Rat sneered. Vine screamed in annoyance. One of the guards walked to there door warning them to be 'good'. They looked at each other and snickered.
Comas stifled a yawn as he finished cleaning up from breakfast. Lark wandered off to the work room telling him to join her at noon. For some reason he had a nagging feeling that there lesson would be short today. He also knew what ever happened he wasn't going to like it…
When he finished cleaning up he had a hour or so till his lessons so he went up to his room to write in his journal. He'd decided to keep a journal, where he'd place all the good and bad reactions he'd had to people in the day hoping to help boost his self esteem.
Opening to a random page he winced he remembered that one.
Today I think I made a dedicate from the fire temple angry. I bumped into her on my way back to Discipline after getting our things for lunch (the kitchen scares me to death still). She opened her mouth to apologize or to yell at me I don't know which I ran fast as I could and left all of our food behind in the street. I ran straight to my room…I'm afraid to leave.
Comas had stayed in his room for nearly two full days, before Lark finally coaxed him back out. His growling stomach had helped. One of the other dedicates… Maybe Crane had taken his food stores out of his room so he wouldn't lock himself up for quite so long. Comas sighed in regret, 'Why must I be such a coward?'
Meshia: hope you nejoyed it!
Dill: Sooo, when do I get to meet the girls? -grins slyly-
Shade:...-Hits Dill with staff-
Meshia:...okay... we may have to take that away from Shade... and Dill your to younge to think like that.
