Hi peoples! Sorry I took so long to write - no more stupid exams!
Well, my computer had a power failure, so my dad hooked up a different
monitor. The only bad thing is that I can't connect to the Internet, so I
have to do something about it.
Chapter 7: Tournament - will she survive?? (well duh.otherwise my story would come to an end)
Alanna felt the excitement surge through her body as she mounted her horse. Her first contestant was..
"Crap!!" she exclaimed. It was Ralon. Better win this one, she thought.
They rode their mounts to the starting position. The bell rang. Time to go. Alanna charged, the wind whipping through her hair. She held the stick up, pointing to Ralon's shield..
"Owwww" she cried. Her lance had shattered, while Ralon's was broken.
"Round 2," announced the herald (well, I couldn't think of anything else).
Back to their positions, with new lances. "Charge!!!!!!!!!!!"
This time, Alanna added more force when she thrust her lance, unseating Ralon. He tumbled backwards, rolling off his horse. At that moment, his horse stopped and.."Plop"
Poor Ralon. Now he stank of waste, though he was already waste. Ah well. It was his fault. He should have been more careful. "I won!! I won!!" shouted Alanna.
The bell rang. It was time for the swordplay competition. Her opponent was.Jon (ha! I bet u thought it was going to be Alex)
They circled each other, concentrating on each other. Alanna was patiently waiting for him to strike. At that moment, Jon lunged forward, barely missing Alanna's shoulder. Another of Alanna's advantages - her agility. Alanna struck, hitting his stomach pad - 5 points to her, none to Jon.
Jon began to become exasperated, knowing she was better at this than him. Alanna realised this change, and found his flaws, as he struggled to defend himself. She struck again and again - 5 points, 2 points, 8 points. It went on and on, until the bell rang.again.
Archery.her favourite!!
"Bullseye!"
Alanna hit her target, again and again. All her arm exercises were doing so much. She was glad she had done them, every morning. Time for the ceremony.
"Our winner is Page Alan, on 190 points!! Well done!! You will make an excellent knight, even the King's Champion!"
Alanna walked up to the podium, finding herself blushing furiously. Her friends clapped her on the back, including Alex (I appear in the story again!! Heehee).
2nd was Alexander of Tirragen, and 3rd was Raoul.
(sorry, I can't fix the lines. It's a page break thing)
There was a huge feast that night, and best of all, no one had to serve anything. The food was just laid out, and in the centre, was a huge turkey. Alanna licked her lips in delight, especially after seeing the glazed cherry on the top (hehe).
All the excitement was over, or so she thought.
