Chapter Two
"Faleron!" Kel cried out, jumping up. She nearly upset her chair in her haste to get up. The fellow squire grinned up at her from the table, brown eyes sparkling with mirth. A grin dominated his handsome features. Kel sat, and watched the other with a happy expression.
"Keladry of Mindelan!" he said after she sat. "I haven't seen you in awhile! Of course, I've been dragged half-way around the country by my knight master..." He grinned, leaning over the table and ruffling her hair. Kel shot him a mock-glare for that, but soon it turned into a grin. She couldn't help it. It was Faleron! The Faleron of King's Reach!
"It hasn't been the same around with you here," Kel smiled, picking up a breakfest roll as Faleron laughed.
"I've missed all of your company too. Now...where are the others?" he asked, peering around the mess hall. Right at that moment, Neal, Cleon, Owen, and Merric marched in. Everybody but Neal cried out in suprise upon seeing Faleron, and they rushed up to him, grinning widely as idiots in welcome.
"FALERON!" cried Owen, jumping up and down, in his never-ending cheerfulness. "You've been gone forever! It's jolly to see you again!"
Merric and Cleon nodded quickly, still grinning hugely. Everyone sat, and started to eat. Faleron told them about all the adventures he had had with his knight-master, a lot boring, only a few exciting. Kel listened attentively to her friend, a stupid grin plastered on her face.
The bell rang, and everyone filed out of the mess hall. Kel had the day off, because Raoul was off doing errands. Faleron caught up to her, brown eyes questioning.
"Hey, Kel. Would you like to go down to the practice courts?" he asked, a small devilish smile on his face. She knew he wanted to duel.
"Sure, Faleron.." she smiled, and went to get her sword.
~~
Kel entered, glancing around for Faleron. Seeing he wasn't there yet, she stretched out, then got up. Putting her sword aside for a moment, the squire picked up her glaive, and did a few swift cuts. Deciding to take it to the next level, she started a pattern dance called the 'dragonfly'.
Swish swish
The blade cut through the air quickly, weaving in and out. Kel was absorbed by the glaive. She was no longer Keladry of Mindelan, but the glaive itself, the dance, the dragonfly...
Sudden clapping jolted her out of her reverie. Sharp hazel eyes glanced sternly at the disrupter, the features melting into a small, embarresed smile, seeing it was Faleron.
Grinning, he stalked over to her, and clapped Kel on the shoulder. The lady squire felt color rise to her cheeks, and she quickly focused her gaze on the ground.
"Good work, lady squire!" Faleron exclaimed, chocolate eyes kind. "Now let's see how you fair with the sword!"
He unsheathed his shining weapon, Keladry following. They bowed to one another, and positioned themselves.
"Guard," proclaimed Kel, and the duel began.
The ring of metel against metel was heard, as their swords clashed together. Beads of persperation appeared on both of the squires' forehead, as they held tight in their fighting embrace. Finally, Kel ducked out of it and parried Faleron. Suddenly, their swords were forced up against each other again, and this time they did not let go. Faleron was staring determindly into Kel's hazel eyes with his own brown.
Suddenly, Kel disappeared.
The sword fell to the ground, as Faleron stared.
