AN- I thank you in advance for reading. I like reviews just for future reference so when you get to the bottom press that little button and tell me what its like. I take compliments, comments, and creative criticism. Don't just say "This isn't worth crap" and not give a reason. ^_^ that's all I ask.

"I'm going to the feast tonight and when I get back I want you two to have done your chores. Is that clear?" Sir Ector looked down his nose at the two boys standing in front of him. William gave him an infamous smile, while Wat stared at a very interesting patch of dirt on the ground.
"Don't worry, Sir," William said. Sir Ector did not like the sound of his voice. "It'll all be done." His eyes twinkled with untold secrets.
"William, if you set one foot inside the feast, the consequences will be beyond your imagination," Sir Ector warned, not pleased with the look in the boy's eyes. "That goes for you as well, Wat."
Wat nodded, still staring at the ground. He shuffled a bit, sending some dust up into the air. Sir Ector gave him a hard stare before looking into William's eyes again. He saw the evil plans being formulated in through those eyes.
"This is your last warning, William. Whatever you're planning you better not do. Your punishment will be worse anything that has ever happened to you before."
The twinkle in the boy's eyes disappeared for a moment. He had had a lot of punishments from Sir Ector, most of them rather torturous in his own opinion. If this one was going to be the worst was he willing to take the chance? Hell, yes.
"Don't worry, sir!" he exclaimed, putting an arm around Wat's shoulders. "Me and Wat will be right here when you get back! Nothing to worry about!"
Oh, but Sir Ector knew there was going to be something to worry about. Something was going to happen to one of them or both of them. Sighing, he waved goodbye to them, and left.
"William, I'm not going to do it," Wat stated, sitting down in the tent. "I absolutely refuse!"
"Aw, come on, Wat!" William whined, standing in the tent door way. "Nothing's going to happen! He'll never know. By the time he comes rushing back, we'll be here doing our chores like good little squires."
"I won't do it." Wat turned his back on his friend. "I absolutely refuse." William sighed exasperatedly and raised his eyes towards the heavens.
"Fine then, don't. I'll do it myself. You're going to be missing such fun though. Your loss really." He left then, heading up towards the castle.
Wat sat on the tent floor as he left, considering going after him. No, he wasn't getting in trouble for this one...to much could go wrong! He would be a good little squire and do his chores quickly and then go to bed hopefully before Sir Ector came down to bestow his wrath upon the two of them.
Hopefully.
