Our Wardens at camp have recently had a familiar guest visit their camp and asked if he and his son could stay here with them until the end of the blight. With Christina, Doni, Leliana & Warrick getting help from the mages to kill the demon without harming Connor.
The Wardens looked into all nearby rooms to look for survivors hoping to see anyone still alive and fighting the demons. But they have looked in two rooms but found nothing but a few dead drops of blood.
Doni growls pointing towards the next room, Doni barks continuously. "What is boy… is there a demon nearby?" Warrick asked.
Doni barks confirming it. Everyone draws their weapons out and barges in but only sees a group of people.
Warrick recognises two of them. "Wynne? That really you?" Warrick asks.
Wynne turns around hearing her name being called. "Warrick you're still alive? I thought when I heard all the grey wardens died in Ostagar."
"Nearly did Wynne but we got lucky I'll admit that much, how did you survive?" Warrick asked.
"Well that's a bit of a long story and we don't have time for me to tell you it." We are in need of you and your fellow grey wardens help." Wynne replied.
"That's what I am here for Wynne to help fight demons and protect my home."
"Alright you are here now and we can talk more after this is over." Wynne talks to Warrick about clearing the tower alongside him.
"Wynne you have kids here you can't leave them unprotected." Warrick said
"They'll be fine as long as we clear every room of demons no harm will come to them." Wynne replied.
"Warrick we have to move if we are to hope to save the circle and the remaining mages." Christina said.
"Right of course you ready Wynne?" Warrick asked.
"I was born ready my dear." Wynne replied.
Wynne joined the wardens to kill all demons in the circle on their way up and save the first enchanter if he is still alive. Room by room they cleared it out, and with more demons than Warrick had ever expected he feared what waited for him and his warden friends would meet once at the top.
"Warrick I had hoped you would help me with the different types of demons we have faced in the circle." Christina asked. "I don't know much but I'll do what I can."
"The demons that are like fire…?" "Those ones are rage demons they bring out everything you ever been angry about in your mind building up your rage making you attack anyone with blind rage they not very intelligent however. There are also the demons of hunger hey are extremely rare, even in the Fade. In the real world, they are most often encountered when possessing a skeleton (fanged skeletons) or a mage."
don't know how to write this down on how the wardens would fight demons so I've decided to skip it, I am sorry if you are disappointed about it but I'll try next time when I edit my story when I complete it with no mistakes.
Shield sliding towards the demon and swinging the right moment to knock the demon off his feet and killing it in the progress.
After the Wardens have managed to kill all the demons in the circle of Magi and got the mages to perform the rite to open the portal to the fade.
Redcliff Castle
"We are ready to perform the rite to the fade but only one person can go in N must be a mage." First enchanter said.
"I'll go first enchanter I want to redeem myself for all the wrong doings I've done." Jowan replied.
"No absolutely not you are blood mage & I want risk you confronting a demon just so you can make a deal with it! You are even lucky I haven't even killed you yet!" Warrick replied angrily.
"Warrick calm yourself down I don't know exactly what happened between you two but as of right now we need to help Connor rather than you two get in each other's throats!" Christina quickly replied to cool the situation down between them.
"Warrick I want you to go and deal with this demon but do be careful, you may be a grey warden now but a demon knows your inner desires even if you don't know it yourself." Christina said.
"I'll be fine milady I've faced worse demons than this one it won't take long before I am back." Warrick replied.
Christina smiled "Don't get too cocky now."
Warrick enters the fade and begins the search for the demon to this over and done with so you can get back to camp and relax for which he hasn't been able to do for long.
Two hours later…
Christina is looking around Eamon's office to find something to read while she waits for Warrick's return. She sudden finds a locket of a picture of a beautiful old woman but doesn't know who it could be.
*Flashback* I remember having this necklace with my mother's picture in it I got so frustrated I threw it at the wall N it shattered. *Flashback ends*
"So this is…was Alistair's mother she was so beautiful it's a shame I didn't get to meet her. I know my mother would've gotten really well with her."
"Sigh I miss her so much but nothing I would've said would convinced her to leave with me. But she's with the maker now with farther as well I hope they are watching over me right now."
Christina puts the necklace somewhere safe for her to carry it back to camp she'll give to Alistair once she knows the time is right.
Christina leaves the room and wants to talk Bann Tegan. "Christina I hope all is well with you?" Teagan asked.
"I am fine Teagan, would you like to have a walk with me outside I need to talk to you in private?"
"Of course but what about?" "About Alistair and Connor."
Teagan nods his head slightly and begins to walk towards the door leading outside. When they both reach outside they continue walking along side by side.
"Teagan did you know Alistair's mother?" Christina asks.
"Not really only that she was a maid in the Denerim castle where she met the king. I was a little kid when I found out didn't really know anything else, so when I met Alistair he was a baby and I got look after him when I got old enough and he'd always wanted to play hide and seek." Teagan smiles.
"Haha yes Alistair mentioned that he was hiding in the cells…." "Locking himself in the cells for weeks." The both said at the same time. They both look at each other with big smiles on their faces. "Alistair can be funny sometimes." Christina said.
"Yes very I enjoyed my time with him before he was sent to the chantry." Teagan replied with a smile. "I wanted to ask you something before you ask me more questions."
Christina stops walking and replies. "Ok Teagan what do you want to ask me about?" Teagan looks at her with serious look. "When we met and fought in that tournament after losing to you, I always wanted to rematch be never was able to have that. Also why didn't we try….us?"
Christina's smile went away when asked that question. "I was a younger woman then just wanting pleasure from whoever I wished it to be. Nothing more than that but I really did enjoy our time together, for it is worth I do now wish we could've tried."
"Why not try now? You haven't got anyone and neither do I." Teagan asked.
"There is a blight Teagan I am sorry but I don't think I can have an affair with anyone till this is over. The decisions I would have to make I fear it may be too much of me."
Teagan slowly places his hand on her left cheek and slowly leans in for a kiss on her lips. Christina finds it too tempting to refuse it from him.
As Teagan gets closer he sees the passion in her eyes to want it. Then they kiss it was a soft kiss and a kiss she wouldn't want to stop there. Christina begins to kiss back places her hands around him and kiss more.
Just for in that moment she has forgotten about the blight and everything else around her….which is what she ever wanted ever since she went down this path.
As they both are kissing one of the guard's interrupts them ands says. "Grey Warden your fellow warden has returned from the fade.
Christina suddenly stops kissing and pushes Teagan away lightly. Christina clears her throat. "Thank you soldier." She has one last look at Teagan and then walks off inside the castle hoping Warrick had successful.
As Christina walks in she sees Warrick is fine everyone is thanking him for his help. She is glad to see him do well and smiles, Christina walks towards him.
Warrick notices Christina walking to her a smile on her face. He reaches out for a handshake but out of nowhere she hugs him in relief. Warrick wraps his arms around her and hugs back. Christina lets go and says. "Well done Warrick I am glad you are back with us how did it go?"
Warrick replies. "It went just as I planned it nothing to worry about….Connor is safe now but after this blight is over I suggest we get them to send Connor to the circle of Magi for training."
"We will have that talk with them and see if it can be done. But for the moment enjoy your victory I'll come find you when I am about to talk to Teagan and Isolde about Connor." Warrick nods in acknowledgement and walks off to celebrate and relax of what has been no doubt a tough battle.
Bann Teagan walks in seeing the warden who went in the fade celebrating his win and looks around the room and doesn't see Christina. Just Isolde and the mages along with the group Christina had with her.
Teagan just walks towards Isolde and stands next to her facing everyone as they continue celebrating Warrick's win over the demon he faced to free Connor. Isolde is looking at Teagan with a big smile on her face, Teagan looks back her with a smile for a few seconds then looks back at the celebration and joins in.
Bann Teagan walks to Warrick to talk to him. "Warden Congratulations your victory against the demon how did you do it?" "Well when I first encountered the demon she was in Connor's form I played along and started to talk where the demon might be."
"At first I was a little convinced it was Connor but with the things he said and how calm he was it was strange. Then I had to fight her and her rage demon…." Warrick looks at Teagan thinking the worst in the battle as the demon was in Connor's form.
"Oh don't worry she changed back into her original form I couldn't harm Connor in the fade even if the demon stayed in her form. It wasn't hard to find her and at the final meet she stayed in her form no longer wanting to hide. That was when I knew she'll try to make a deal with me I was confident she didn't have to power to beat me…so in my over confident self I let her amuse me and listened to her offer."
"Why she could've easily been made you the offer you wouldn't be able to refuse?" Teagan replied.
"That is true that is when I heard the offer it wasn't much of an offer to me so without giving her any chances I just rejected the offer and we fought." She must have been regaining her strength as I was listening to her offer. She was difficult to kill at first but after a while I won…then I started to feel hungry… speaking of which I need to eat so I'll be off back to camp now I wish you the best with Connor he is a talented kid don't let anyone make him think otherwise."
"I won't Grey Warden he will enjoy his time as a mage with such a wonderful gift. Of and by the way got a question about Christina I like to ask you."
"Ok don't much about her but go ahead." Warrick replied.
"I know her well already but this path she's going down on can you help her have fun and try keeping her happy, with her family gone and the blight to fight she will need something to keep her going?"
"Don't worry about her she'll be fine and when she struggles me and the others will be there to support her." Warrick said with a smile.
Teagan nods and is about to walk off back to Isolde…"So how was she…good?" Teagan turns around confused by the answer. "What I don't understand the question?" Teagan replied.
"Oh don't give me that Teagan you and her kissed didn't you?" he chuckles. "I have no idea what you are on about." Teagan replied while looking down on the floor.
"The guard that saw you he told everyone about it." Teagan glows a little red. "Haha so how was she?" Teagan looked back at Warrick and said, "It was amazing I had hoped no-one ruined that moment." He giggles.
They both laugh together about it Warrick laughed more than Teagan as for he was more embarrassed about everyone knowing about it.
Teagan walks off and re-joins Isolde and gets everyone back to their duties. Warrick goes to find Christina to tell her he is going to return to comp alone if she is not yet done here.
He finds her just coming out from Connor's room. Christina notices him standing there and walks to him, Warrick meets her half way. "Warrick you looking for me?" Christina asks.
"Yes I am going to tell you that I am off back to camp alone if you are not done here." "We are nearly done here and don't leave the group we stay together. Now go tell everyone to prepare to go back to camp."
"Very well we'll be outside the front gates waiting for you." Warrick replies and gets the group to the outside gates.
I know what you all might be thinking Teagan and Christina kissed? Well considering I don't know the age between them both I'd put a guess they are not far apart to have interest in each other. I am sorry for the long wait for next chapter. I am trying as hard as possible to make as entertaining as possible both action scenes and in talks. If I haven't told you already I am typing this like it would happen in a movie.
