*Hey you all thank you so much for being patient with me cause my computer broke. Well I shut up now so you can read. The end is sort of like how Alanna met Ralon in Alanna: The First Adventure. Please R&R*
New Friends, New Enemies
As Arwen Alexia approached the Convent, an ugly grayish purple building, she noticed that Tari was looking disappointingly at her. "That look would be the same look Thia would give me if she knew I was coming here, "Arwen thought. Little did she know that Tari Thia was really Thia. (In the future, Arwen would also be known as Alanna and Thia would be known as Faithful.) As Arwen and Esther, the maid, entered the Convent, a guard dressed in all purple welcomed them and said, "Please wait a few minutes while I inform the Priestess, also known as Lady Dorina, that you have arrived. Then I will lead you into your room. Arwen looked around and couldn't believe that this was going to be the horrible place for the next six years. As she went in she saw another young girl that looks only a few years younger. "She looks a lot like Thia" Arwen thought sadly.
…
As Arwen opened the door to her room she saw a blue bed with a little closet, a writing desk, and a small shelf. As Arwen plopped down on her new bed the girl she saw from the courtyard came in. "Hi! My name is Arlene from Golden Lake, what is yours?" Nobly, Arwen replied," My name is Arwen and I am from Silver Mountain. I just arrived so do you mind telling me about this place?" "Sure, I will be honored to. First of all, we have to wake up at dawn, go to the Great Hall for breakfast, then we go to dining class where we learn all about which fork to use for salads and such, then we go to dancing class, manner class, lunch at the Great Hall, and a break. Afterwards we have to go outside to do physical fitness and the horrid riding classes. Then we take our academics, which include mathematics, Tortallian, history, and magic class if you have the Gift. Then we have dinner, another shorter break and lights off. Don't worry…" Arlene said as she saw the worried expression on Arwen's face. "You will do just fine, besides you will be used to the schedule in no time and if you have been good for a long time then you get to go to the market, which by the way is the only time you can leave the Convent with a few people. Come on then lets go and I'll introduce you to my friends." Arlene said as she half dragged Arwen into the ballroom where two other young girls were having a conversation. "Arwen meet Daina of Dove Peak and Daina meet the girl I am sponsoring." Arlene said as she introduced Arwen to a pretty red haired, black-eyed girl. "And no Elaine I didn't forget about you. Arwen meet Elaine of Queenscove, Elaine meet Arwen of Silver Mountain." After all the 'how do you dos' the dinner bell rang and the four young girls sat into a seat at the big table. After the Priestess gave the blessings for the food she started eating along with all the other young girls. (I guess I should describe the Priestess before we go on right? The Priestess was very young probably in her mid twenties and had sparkling silver eyes. Her hair was smooth and was coal black with a little bit of silver highlights. Hard to imagine that such a beauty would waste, as some people would say, her life teaching young girls to become ladies.) From behind Arwen came a rude noise and a mean voice that said" Well if it isn't a country girl trying to act as if she was a noble. " OH shut up Rebela. Arwen don't listen to her, she is just a dork." Arlene said. "I am going to do as I like and no one can stop me and you know that Arlene because I am the Priestess's pet so you better learn that New Girl. Oh and by the way when you see me you will do as I say and curtsy and say 'Yes, Lady Rebela.'" Arwen's fury rose and she said, "I thought ladies were supposed to be mannered. Well whoever told me that must have been wrong cause obviously I see a egg-rotting pig in front of me." "Why you little …" but Rebela's sentenced stopped mid way because a tall, coal eyed lady came and said, "That is enough Rebela, you may be my mother's pet but you still should show some manners." Quickly Arlene told Arwen, "Sorry, I almost forgot Arwen this is the fourth member of our group (not counting Arwen). Her name is ____ and as you probably figured she is the Priestess's daughter. Arwen quickly stammered a Thank you before _____ asked the crowd what happened. "Well this country bred girl was insulting me…" Rebela started to say but was cut off with _____ response. "Rebela did I ask you? Go up now to my chambers and I will talk to you later. Now Elaine could you tell me what happened?" "OF course _____," and Elaine explained everything. "Well young Arwen from now on stay with your sponsor, Arlene, and Rebela wouldn't bother you anymore. But as Rebela started to walk away she looked back and said at Arwen, "This isn't the end yet, it's only the beginning." "Well… young Arwen," _____ said. "Looks like you made some new friends as well as a new enemy. As Arwen was blushing furiously.
