Heehee sorry it took me a while to write, and none of the character are
mine, etc, etc, but here it is.
Alanna's eyes looked up into those of her rescuer. She tried to gasp for breath, her brain was spinning she couldn't think straight, she was safe? Alex was, he going to be ok? What was happening? She was safe? She gasped again, and fainted. The sudden terrifying truth of what had nearly happened hit her, and she slumped to the ground.
Her rescuer sighed, and lent down to feel her pulse. It was steady, and strong, she would be fine. He then lent down and felt Alex's, it looked as though he would have a lump on his head, but he would survive. He helped Alex sort himself out, cleaned and bandaged his head, before gently picking up Lady Alanna, and carrying her back to her room. He gently laid her on the bed, and was just about to leave the room unseen, when Princess Thayet appeared. "What are you doing?" The princess almost screamed, forgetting etiquette, she was so worried about Alanna. "Thayet, calm down, I can explain. We had better come away from Lady Alanna's room, she is unconscious." "Unconscious! You want me to calm down!" She was almost yelling at Alanna's rescuer. Alanna's rescuer smiled, calmed Thayet down, and told her what had happened. Thayet was fuming even more afterwards, I just have one final request, he whispered. "I don't want Alanna to know it was me who saved her. Could you say that it was you?" Thayet thought this was a strange request, but agreed. However she ran back to the ball, and grabbed Buri, to begin planning Alex's downfall.
Buri watched Thayet pace up and down, she was sitting on Thayet's bed and still taking in the news about what had happened to Alanna. "We must get him." Thayet muttered, "Buri, we may only be women, but there are three of us and it could stand up, we should take Alanna to the temple of the goddess as soon as she wakes." "You forget something Thayet. If we take Alex to face charges of attempted rape, the court could turn on us. Also, you on Alanna as well as I do, she likes to fight her own battles, and will not go to help, from the temple of the goddess, or anyone else." "She might take it from Prince Jonathon, and the court could not turn against him." "Thayet we cannot bring Prince Jonathon into it. It would shame Alanna as well you know.
Alanna had regained consciousness within an hour, but she felt weak, and was easily scared for the next few days. As Buri had said, Alanna would not go for help. Instead Alanna found her own way of dealing with him. Staying out of his way. However she vowed that she would get him back, one day. The only one good outcome, was that their before impending wedding had been called off. It had all happened very quietly, and no one was quite sure what had happened, but Jon had given her the news, two days after Alex's attempted rape.
Alanna, and Jon, had been spending a lot of time together. Far more time than the King and Queen were happy about. However the two young people could easily put it down to Alanna's worry, or that she was a good listener, and was giving him advise for his future. Although Jon didn't really think about being King, it made a good excuse for him to take Lady Alanna on long rides away from the palace, though they never went down into the city. Alanna knew that Jon sometimes went to the city alone, but those times she spent with Buri, and Thayet. She often wondered where he went, but he never answered her questions, she didn't really mind. They spent some days together, and nearly every night, in each other's arms. For Alanna, it was peaceful and happy, since that night, with Alex.
Some times, she talked to some of the other young knights, and became friends with Gary, and Raoul. The three of them, and Prince Jonathon often talked, sometimes about Thom. However, on one of these talks, they discovered that Alanna, had a hidden hope, of trying some fighting arts, but she was too worried about anyone thinking she was unlady like.
