Lady Alanna Plans and Disappoitment

NNNNOOOOO!!!! Cried Alanna of Trebond. I don't wan to go. Please don't make me go Daddy . "You're going and that's final, now be gone, I have work to do", shouted their father Duke Alan of Trebend. When twins Thom and Alanna had left their father's study Alanna started to think "Thom", she cried, "I have an idea." "What?" asked her twin. "Why don't you go to the convent to be a sorcerer while I run away and go to the castle to be a knight?" "Alanna, but you're a girl", replied Thom, shocked. "I know but I can disguise myself as a boy." "What happens when womanly things start happening and what a bout Coram and Maude, they certainly will know." It took a lot of convincing but Alanna finally got her brother to agree. The night before they were scheduled to leave Alanna snuck into her brother's bedroom, "Thom, Thom, wake up!" "Wh..What do you want Alanna?" "I just wanted to be sure that we were still going to go along with the plan and tell Maude tomorrow first thing and then switch." Thom looked uncomfortable. "Thom, why are you looking kinda funny?" Alanna questioned him worriedly. "Alanna, I don't think the plan will work. You are going to the convent tomorrow and I am going to the castle whether we like it or not, so don't change my mind. I am going to the castle tomorrow!" Alanna was so furious with her brother that she started to beat on him and they began to wrestle. Thom was sure that he would come out the worse for wear with a few bruises and even a black eye. Alanna also figured that tomorrow she would three quarters drown him in the fish pond and even then she was sure that she would never speak to him again.
