**here's the next chapter!!**
Pirate's Swoop
"Marc!" shrieked Chloe as she looked into his eyes.
"Woah, calm down, did you hurt yourself when you fell down the stairs?"
"Stairs?" Chloe asked, confused, "Oh, the stairs! Yea, I'm okay. I fell down the stairs and ended up back in the studio. Laura was walking me up."
Marc's turn to look confused, "back home?? I followed you all the way down the stairs. You never left my sight, not for a second."
"Um, well, I don't know what happened, I'm just glad I'm back, I thought I would have to sty back home, without getting to say goodbye to you, or Kel, or Kally, and I would have loved to meet Alanna or Daine. It would be so great!!" Marc looked a little sheepish. "What? Why are you looking like you know something?"
"Um, look you need to know something. I haven't been completely honest with you, I'm really-"
"So, is this strange girl you told me about, Thom?" asked a redheaded woman from a corner in the room. She was really short, and carried a sword . . . "Eeeeeeeeee!" Chloe shrieked. "It's you!! It's really you! Omigod, how's my hair? Can I have your autograph? Abbi will never ever believe this has happened to me. I'm actually meeting the Lady Alanna of Pirate's Swoop and Olau!" Chloe looked at Marc, who was grinning his head off, and then at Alanna, who was totally clueless and looking at Chloe as if she were crazy. Suddenly, Chloe realized something, "Marc, what did she mean when she called you Thom?"
"Well, er, that's what I wanted to tell you, I'm ah, Thom, Alanna and George's son."
"You are Thom?" He nodded, slowly. Chloe wasn't sure whether to be very pissed or insanely happy.
"Let me explain, I didn't want to tell you who I was, until I knew you. I wasn't sure if you were someone who just wanted to befriend the son of the King's champion, or if you wanted to actually be friends." He looked into her eyes, "Are you mad?"
Chloe thought for a moment, "No, no one, not even you, can make me upset, not today, not now. I, Chloe Masters, just met The Lioness, The King's Champion, There is nothing that can make today any better."
"Okay, why do you keep talking about me like you know me?" asked Alanna, slowly inching towards them, "And why are you so pleased to see me? Have I helped your family somehow? Have we met before?"
"No . . . Not exactly, I am from another world," Ooooh I sound so scientific, Chloe thought to herself, "I've read about you and Jon and George and everyone in stories written by the most excellent author known."
"I see, and how did you get here, to Tortall?"
"Well, um Joren and the others pages at the castle did a spell that transported me here, and well, I've traveled from Kel, to Kally to Mar-Thom, to you. The only one I haven't seen is Daine, who I really hope to see before this spell runs out again and I get sent back home."
"Again? You were sent back before?" Alanna asked.
"Yes, just now I got back somehow and I have no idea when the spell will run out again."
"Okay, I think I understand," Alanna thought a moment, "I think you will get you wish, if I talk to Jonathon, we can go back to the castle to see Daine and ask Numair about the spell. You can say goodbye to Kalasin and Keladry, and alls well."
"Sounds like a plan to me, " said Thom.
"Yea, me too," agreed Chloe.
**Ummmm, I don't know yet if I should end it in the next chapter, or if I should make a twist in it and make it longer. Please tell me what you think by reviewing!!!!! I'll put up the next chapter sooon!!!! **
