Oh, Maker! This is so late! And its kinda short to. I have been busy with my other story's. I think the Christmas special is gonna be late. I can't do it, unless this is done. (Unless I make a Fenders one... NEVERMIND!) ON TO THE STORY!

...

"Hey, guys!" He yelled out as they approached the rest of there companions. Aveline and Merrill looked over to them, while Isabela and Varric seemed to be in an argument. He wondered what they were arguing about. Probably which of them if the better rogue. But he doubted they would do that without him there as well.

"Hello Hawke." Merrill said. Hawke waved to her with a smile. Her eyes then landed on the two other people. She stood up, walking over to them. Once she had reached them she looked to Hawke and Fenris. "Who are these two?" She asked, looking back to Jasper and Leaf. Jasper took a step closer, grabbing hold of Merrill's hand.

"My name is Jasper, milady." He said, kissing her knuckles. Her cheeks turned a small tinge of pink. Jasper came back up. "And what is your name, my dear?"

"Oh, my name is Merrill."

"What a lovely name." Leaf walked passed the two, going towards a rock near the sea. After Merrill and Jasper had done with introductions, they all went over to the others. This is when they were able to hear the argument going on between Isabela and Varric.

"I swear Ravaini, it was this big." Varric said, using his hands to display a curtain size.

"I've had many in my hands and none were that big." Wait, were they talking about...? Oh this was just like them. Have an argument about that while I'm gone. Hawke walked to the two, wanting to see if he was right. And, knowing them, he probably was.

"What in Maker's name are you two talking about?" Varric looked at Hawke then.

"Daggers," Oh... Haha.. "Wait, what did you think we were talking about?" He put his hands up.

"Nothing." Isabela looked at him, and laughed.

"Oh, you thought we were talking about co-"

"That's enough!" He said, covering Merrill's ears. Isabela started rolling on the floor, laughing. Varric chuckled.

"Hawke, when do you think I would see one of those? Unless your forgetting, I'm straight." The pirate and the bard keep't laughing for a bit, before finally calming down. Isabela's eyes landed on the newbie in there (Currently very strange) group. She stood, walking over to him.

"Now who is this?" She asked in a seductive tone. Jasper smiled just as seductively at her.

"Greetings, my lady. My name is Jasper. And you are?"

"Isabela. Pleasure to meet you."

"The pleasure is all mine."

"Get a room." Hawke said. If those two keep't it up, this trip would get very interesting. But he didn't think it would be good for the other members of the squad. Isabela looked to him, then smiled.

"Jealous Hawke? Or is it just acting? You should know Fenris isn't here to watch." Wait, what? He looked around and, like she said, Fenris wasn't there anymore. He looked further around and spotted the elf going over to the rock that Leaf is at.

"Hmm. Must be going to get that book." That had to be the reason. But this means he can't get anywhere with the elf. Dammit! Everything has to be so damn complicated! Now what was he meant to do? He had to do something. Calm down, Cody. Your being selfish. Fenris wants to learn more about his powers and you can't keep that from him, no matter what you do, or who you are. He sighed, going to sit down at the fire. Shortly after, Anders came back from his little cat nap. Hehe, cat nap. He turned his head to the mage and smiled.

"Good evening, sir. How was the rest?" Anders sat down next to him and yawned.

"It was good enough, considering the heat. Nothing would be better right now then a cool change." He saw Anders eyes widen a little. "That's it! A cool change." He started charging up a spell and there was suddenly a cold breeze that made him shiver. It was a good change to the heat. It must have been an ice spell.

"Why does it suddenly feel colder?" Aveline asked.

"Don't worry about it." Anders said. Ahh, this is why he liked Anders. He could make the heat go away. He was a good friend. "Hey Hawke," His attention went back to the Apostate. "Who's that, talking to Isabela?" He looked to Isabela and Jasper.

"Oh, that's Jasper. Me and Fenris found him and his companion lost and it was getting dark, so I invited them to hang out with us." Anders nodded.

"Ok, then. Wait, what about his companion?"

"'He's hanging out with Fenris over there," He pointed to the rock that both men were sitting on. "His name is Leaf and apparently he found this book detailing the Lyrium Ghost. Fenris could find out the true meaning of his powers with that." Anders nodded again.

"But what is he really was made to be a monster? What if when he realizes what he is he turns against us and kills us all. Knowing him, he could do it." He sighed.

"There always hope." In this case, he was praying to the Maker, in case any of those did happen.

...

He looked at the cover of the book, running his fingers over the delicate markings that were similar to his own. He would read it but he didn't know how. If Hawke had assumed otherwise, he really was as stupid as he acts. It was a good feeling to have all the information he needed about his powers right in his hands.

"You know, you don't have to wait to start reading it." Leaf said. Looks like he doesn't know much about slave education, either. These people should learn how slaves are used. Then maybe they wouldn't ignore it so much. And yet everyone just ignores Tevinter, like it won't come out and attack there homes while they sleep. Because they would.

"I do not know how to read. Tevinter, or otherwise." Leaf arched a brow at him.

"Didn't your mother teach you how to read?" Fenris frowned. His expression softened, but it was not in any of the ways everyone wants. This was in sadness, disappointment. But most of all, grief.

"I do not remember my mother. I do not remember anything before the markings. The pain chased away any memory I may have had, along with any family." Now it was Leaf's turn to frown, as he looked down at the sand.

"Oh. I'm sorry." Suddenly anger boiled inside him.

"I do not need your pity." He said, anger leaking from the whole sentence. Leaf, however, just gave a bitter laugh.

"It is not pity. More of relation. I have lost everything, as well. I find you to be lucky, since you can't remember what you had last, you don't feel the guilt of perhaps being the only survivor in a catastrophe that killed all your family and friends." Leaf sighed. "I almost wish I was you."

"Almost." Leaf smiled.

"Yeah, almost." They stayed in a pause for awhile, before Leaf spoke up. "I know how to read Tevinter. I can either teach you, or read it to you. There aren't to many people that know how to read this stuff, so the likeliness of you finding another teacher is pretty slim." Fenris nodded.

"But aren't you and your friend leaving soon?"

"I guess it could wait. Although you would owe me." Fenris frowned at the thought of owing him anything.

"I do not like owing people."

"Of course you don't. Well, you could repay me with a place to stay for me and my...um.. Friend?" Fenris' lips turned up slightly.

"You are unsure of that?" Leaf laughed.

"Well he is a mage. Mages aren't really trustworthy. But I will admit, he has his uses."

"Of course he does."

"Oh, was that sarcasm? I feel so burnt."

"You should."

"I'm burning right off the face of the earth. I'm never gonna see the light of day again! Only the light of the fire burning me!" They both laughed.

"Stop it. If you continue to burn, I will have no one to give me the information of this book."

"So that's a deal then?" Leaf asked, reaching his hand out.

"I guess. But if your mage turns into an Abomination, I will be forced to kill him." Fenris took the hand and they shook on it.

"Don't worry about it. He would never accept a deal from a demon. To damn stubborn."

"You sound almost disappointed."

"Well, that just means I can't kill him, right?"

"Indeed it does." Fenris agreed. Leaf grabbed the book from his hands and opened it.

"Shall we get started?"

"We shall."

...

They grow up so fast! ;) I mean my OC'S, of course. Leaf's past was all in all a fail. I am currently writing it, (Which is way this is so late) And it will be a oneshot, combined with Jasper's past. So it will be how they met, what happened before hand, so on and so on.

Cya!
