Disclaimer: None of Tamora Pierce's characters are mine so leave me alone

Notes: Sorry I haven't written in forever! I am super super busy! Oh and please ignore all the spelling mistakes in previous chapters I would fix them but the chapters are saved on a different computer I don't have access too anymore, sorry (

"Don't do that," Jon said loudly.

"I don't see any reason why I shouldn't" their training master replied

"Alan lied, the dog really belongs to my father, she just really likes Larric."

" In that case Alan you will report to the kitchens after dinner to wash dishes, honesty is important."

I can't let Alan take the blame for this, Larrie thought. She opened her mouth to say something but Alan silenced her

"It's okay," he whispered, "but you owe me one."

" Thank you," Larrie replied, relieved.

The training master seemed to be disputing whether or not to believe Jon's story, in the end he sighed and said, in a disgruntled tone, " Alright everyone, stop standing around. Get back to practicing! Now! All of you!"

So they finished up and trudged toward the castle.

Notes: Okay I know this chapter is super short but I have to go to bed I have spent 14 hours at school today and I was up til 3:00 am last night. I am ready for bed! I hope I can write more soon!
