Chapter 4
Oh great, now I'm the bad guy...
(Author's Note)
Here comes Cassandra- I mean, Flyianna Rider, excuse me, must have had a frog (Chameleon) in my throat.
This is going to be extremely fun! Mainly because Varian with a frying pan is actually a hilarious concept to me?
(Especially whacking "Flyianna" upside the head with it, because it just cracks me up when I think about it, lol.)
Please enjoy this new chapter, and I hope that you'll like it!

In the woods, Flyianna and The Stabbington Sisters were running away from the Royal Guards. Flyianna looked around, saw a wanted poster and panicked upon seeing it.
She grabbed it and stuttered, "No, no no. This is bad, this is very, very bad, This is really bad."
Angry and Red looked at Flyianna.
She showed them the wanted poster, where her wanted poster had sharp-teeth in replacement of her normal teeth. "They just can't get my teeth right!" She frowned, almost angry.
Angry rolled her eyes, "Who cares."
"Well it's easy for you to say. You girls look amazing." She put the wanted poster in her satchel and growled, following the girls again. They reached a small cliff that they couldn't jump to.
"Alright okay. Give me a boost, and I'll pull you up." Flyianna looked at the girls.
Angry sniffed, "Give us the satchel first."
She seemed offended by this. "What? I just... I can't believe, that after all we've been together, you don't trust me. Ouch." She said, being slightly theatrical by speaking and acting dramatic.
Angry and Red rolled their eyes and they helped Flyianna up onto the cliff.
"Now help us up, tough lady." Angry asked her.
Flyianna smirked and held up the satchel, "Sorry, my hands are full." And she ran off quickly, leaving Angry and Red there alone. "What?! RIDER!" Angry screamed.
This was followed up by a woman with long, straggly black hair and a beautiful face, "Retrieve that satchel with any force!" She called to her Royal Guards, she was the Captain of the Royal Guards. She then looked at Fidella, a caramel-colored horse. "We got her now, Fidella."
Fidella whinnied and ran after Flyianna, jumping over the cliff with a elegant jump.
They all gave chase with their horses, Fidella leading the way by herself. Flyianna looked over her shoulder and saw Fidella, then smirked. She grabbed a hold of a branch, let Fidella pass by her and then let go, getting on Fidella's back. Flyianna grabbed the reins and held them tightly.
She snapped them. "Go! Heyah! Come, fleabag, forward."
Fidella tried her best to knock Flyianna off of her, and Flyianna hissed. "No. No, stop it!"
Suddenly, the horse and thief fell down a hill into a secluded area... They were both frozen in shock for quite a moment, before they rememebered they were giving each other a chase, and so Fidella got up and Flyianna did too, and they both ran.
Flyianna saw a tower and decided this was probably the best place to hide from the guards, so once she had lost Fidella to a series of tree branches and small hills, Flyianna headed to the tower. "Let's see here..." Flyianna grabbed some arrows out of her satchel, stabbed them into the rocks of the tower and began climbing up it with the arrows.
Once arriving in the tower through the window, it was a bit dark. But it was safe.
At least, Flyianna thought.
"Alone at last." She sighed in-relief.
THWONG!
And everything went black.
Varian stared, completely terrified of what just happened, even if he was the one who hit her upside the head with a frying-pan. Varian looked at her for a moment before kneeling down and using the frying-pan to push back her black hair... Yep, she looked knocked-out.
Ruddiger pulled on Varian's pants leg and then pointed at his own teeth.
Varian nodded and looked back at Flyianna, using the frying-pan to push the corner of her mouth up to investigate her teeth. It didn't seem like she had sharp-teeth like Father Cap said...
Flyianna suddenly opened an eye, startling Varian backwards.
"Huh?" She muttered quietly, opening her eyes.
THWONG!
Everything for her went black again.
Varian then proceeded to drag the lady to his closet. It took him many, many tries to get her in there, but he managed to finally do it. He closed the closet door loudly and slammed his back against the door with a bewildered face. "Okay, okay, I have a person in my closet." He spoke.
"I have a person in my closet..." He looked down.
Then suddenly, his bewildered face turned into a big, bright smile that showed off his bucktooth.
"I have a person in my closet!" He said, giddy.
He ran to the mirror and looked at himself, holding his frying-pan.
"Too weak to handle myself out there, huh Father? Well, Tell that to my frying pan!"
Varian swung the frying-pan and hit himself in the head with it, but luckily didn't hit too hard. "Ow." He winced and glared at himself. Father Cap's voice was then heard.
"Varian! Let down your hair!"
"One moment, Father."
Varian put away his frying-pan.
"I have a big surprise." Father Cap hummed.
Varian paused, "Uh, I do too."
He casted his hair down the window.
Father Cap got on and Varian pulled him to the window, "Oh, I bet my surprise is bigger."
Varian nervously laughed, "I seriously doubt it!"
Father Cap got through the window and showed off the basket. "I brought back parsnips. I'm going to make hazelnut soup for dinner, your favorite." Cap said happily. "Surprise!" He added for extra flair. Varian's voice cracked, "Well Father, there's something I want to tell you."
"Oh Varian, you know I hate leaving you after a fight." Cap sighed,
"Especially when I've done absolutely nothing wrong." He added distastefully.
Varian just rolled his eyes at that one.
"Okay, I've been thinking a lot about what you said, earlier." Varian followed Father Cap.
He put down the basket, "I hope you're not still talking about the stars."
Varian corrected him, "Floating lights, and, yes I'm leading up to that."
Father Cap glanced at him out the corner of his eye, "Because I really thought we dropped the issue, sonny boy..." Cap said softly. "No Father, I'm just saying, you think I'm not strong enough to handle myself out there." He was interrupted again by Cap.
"Oh son, I know you're not strong enough to handle yourself out there."
Varian frowned, "But if you just..."
"Varian, we're done talking about this." Cap was getting annoyed.
"But trust me, I-" "Varian."
"-know what I'm-" "Varian-"
"Oh, com'on." Varian hissed.
Father Cap snapped at him, "Enough with the lights, Varian! You are not leaving this tower, ever!" and there was a long, painful silence between the two. Tears built in Varian's eyes.
Cap sighed and sat down, propping his head up by the cheek with his hand.
"Oh, great. Now I'm the bad guy."
Varian quietly said, his feelings definitely hurt too much to even say anything to what he was originally going to say. "All I was gonna say, Father, is that..."
"I know what I want for my birthday, now."
Cap looked up at him, "And what is that?"
"New powder for my alchemy. That powder made from the white shells you once brought me." Varian grabbed at his own arm, looking down.
Father Cap frowned, "Well that is a very long trip, Varian. Almost three day's time."
"I just thought it was a better idea than, stars." Varian informed him.
Cap thought about this for a while and responded, "You sure you'll be all right, on your own?"
Varian assured, "I know I'm safe, as long as I'm here."
Father Cap, now wearing his cloak again and holding his basket. "I'll be back in three days time. I love you very much, my flower." Cap said to him, holding onto the hair.
"I love you more." Varian replied.
"I love you most." Father Cap said before leaving...
Varian took his hair away from the window, waited until Cap was gone, and then ran over to the closet and opened the door, Flyianna falling out of it loudly.
"Okay." Varian clenched his fists...
