((Okay…here's chapter 2! Thanks for all the great reviews, see the bottom for responses!))

***Disclaimer—None of the Heralds of Valdemar, etc. belong to me. The idea for them, them, the wonderful land of Valdemar, and all things seen in the books by her belong to Mercedes Lackey, and I take no credit for them.

Also, thanks to Selena, who's Todos Mis Exitos CD I was listening to while writing this.

***Savil***

Savil blinked. She was out of place and quite confused. She was comforted by the fact that in the back of her mind she felt Kellan, still there for her. If Kellan was there, the world hadn't gone completely astray. Hopefully. Of course, she DID think that she had been dead not to long ago.

When Savil didn't answer Vanyel got worried. She was still her tall, fit self, looking better than she did right before she died. Death must have strengthened her, given her a rest. She did have the scars from her death, though, and Vanyel visibly winced at that. :Savil?:

Savil jumped. Literally. A foot into the air. The three (Vanyel, 'Fandes, and Kellan) laughed, or snorted, whichever they were capbable of. :Demon: she shot back, in mock anger. :I didn't know you were there.:

Vanyel just grinned. "Calm down, Savil. We don't seem to be in any immediate danger. I just can't figure out where we are."

Savil looked at him. "There's something wrong here. What is it?"

Kellan answered. :The lack of magic. No nodes, nothing. Be careful, you won't be able to energize yourself if you use all of your reserves.:

Savil nodded. "What are we doing here?"

Vanyel shook his head and shrugged. "I have no clue. One minute I was in the Forest with Stef, and…" he trailed off. "Then I was here."

Savil nodded. There would be time to ask how Stef was later. Knowing that little imp, he was fine. "Do we know where 'here' is?"

"Nope, and neither do the Companions. Yfandes is as clueless as me. We haven't been here long."

Savil looked around. :I think I might have figured out the place. 'Middlesboro':

Vanyel spun around and looked in the same direction as her. There was a sign there. "Welcome to Middlesboro," he read.

:Well, yes, in that case, I do believe that's where we are,: Yfandes mentioned with a mind grin.

With a tiny pop, another figure in white and a white horse came up behind them.

:Wind to thy wings,: Savil mindspoke.

((Okay….Middlesboro is a little town situated in the mountains between Kentucky and Tenn., and N. Carolina (I think). Which makes this all the more ironic, because NO ONE lives in Middlesboro, and they have a K-Mart in their mall. I have been there a few times and it's a BEAUTIFUL place.))

Sithelf—Thanks. I tried to be original…

Kreuz Swords—Here you go!

Herald Mistyllena—Gracias!

Jocelyn Magus—You better believe that's what I was going to do! No way am I missing out on that opportunity, it's been one of my plans since the beginning.

Rosethorn—I think it would be funny to! Wait and see…but I don't think that I'll put myself in. (Maybe, though…)

((Sorry this chapter was so short! I'll try and write some more! Please review!))
