The Convent...The Castle
After Alanna had dunked her brother in the fish pond she still ad dicided he wasn't sorry enough about refusing the offer she had given him and said she was never going to talk to him until he had suffered enough for all her hopes and dreams go down the privey.
When they were going to separate and go their separate ways oram and Maude were going to let the twins have time to say goodbye to each other for they would not see each other for six years until Alanna came to court to get a husband. Alanna was so unhappy she said that if they were going to make her go to the convent she wanted to get going now and with a quick goodbye to Coram, she took off down the road that lead the way to the convent. Thom was just as unhappy as Alanna and said to Coram to hurry up and said goodbye to Maude and told Maude to say goodbye to Alanna for him, and just as quickly as Alanna had set off he set off the other road the lead to the castle.
Alanna pov (after she left Thom to go to the castle)
I hate him!!!!!! He is sooooo selfish. We would get cought he said we would get into trouble he said. Stupid cowardly Thom. He's the one who want's to learn magic not me. I will probably have to learn to use my magic. Alanna thought with a shiver. I hate my magic. It scares me. What if I lose my grip on it and it goes wild and I can't control it. Another shiver ran through her.
Just as Alanna had finished her thought Maude caught up with her. "Young lady why did you not say goodbye to your brother. He told me to say goodbye for him?"
"I didn't say goodbye to him because I am angery with that is all, and I am glade to be rid of him for six years."
"Well missy if you acted like this to him no wonder he got mad at you. That's why your mad isn't it?"
"No as a matter of fact I am mad at him because he broke a promise. That is all I am going to tell you about our argument so don't bring it up again." Alanna snapped.
Thom's pov
I will miss you dear Alanna. I am sorry to do this to you but I don't like to get into trouble. You know I want to be a sorcerer not a knight but it's the law. Nobly born girls go to the convent and nobly born boy go to the castle. I don't want to be a knight. I hate being beaten up. I hate to get durty. I hate every thing about being a knight. I wish I wasn't such a scardy cat. Alanna I wish I had gone along with the plan. Then we both could be happy.
Just than Coram cought up with him. Coram didn't even bother asking what was the matter between the two he was too upset about brining Thom to the castle because when went there to be a solider he was famouse but soon he would be the laughing stalk of the castle for Thom could not use a bow for the life of him.
A few days latter Alanna arrived at the convent. She was depressed beyoned words. She dreded the thought of having to learn to be a lady having to wear dresses all the time. Maude said she would get used to it, but Alanna knew she would't.
A few days after Alanna reached the convent Thom reached the castle. When he saw it he thought maybe it wouldn't be that bad because it was the most beautifull thing he had ever seen. But he was wrong because when he first stepped out of his door everyone shouted that their was a new boy in the castle. He knew that he needed a sponser to show him the castle so he waited patiently for someone to choose him. Somebody taped him on the shoulder from behind and started to make fun of him. Some of the other told him to stop but he wouldn't. Thom started that the gods were punishing him for turning away Alanna when a boy with black hair and the bluest eyes he had ever seen stopped the fight and introduced himself as Johnathan, Prince Johnathan. He soon became friends with him and his friends, Gary, Roaul, Alex and Francis.
On several ocations Thom tried to send Alanna a letter but she would never answer them. He wasn't even sure if she read them. So Thom eventually stopped writing. At the convent Alanna was having the worst time ever. She always had to wear a dress, she had to act polite and do other lady like things. She hated it. When Thom sent a letter she would read it and loath Thom even more because he got to have all the fun. Alanna had not forgotten her dream to become a knight so in secret she would practice. When she went to court she would beat Thom with the sword and humiliate him infront of all his friends.
