Chapter 6- Bone meets Alanna

                                                ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Bone headed toward the girl with amethyst eyes, fire-like hair, and a beautiful body.

"Is this seat taken?" Bone asked the girl.

"no." the girl replied with an amused smile on her face.

And with that, they launched into conversation about each other. By the end of that day, they knew each other's lives in and out.

A FEW DAYS LATER…

Alanna went over to Bone's 'house' (Oriana decided to give it to him and moved to the city)

She had taken to spending time with the young thief as soon as she met him. He was smart, handsome, her own age, and most of all, she knew she could trust him. Even though she thought of him this way, she didn't feel like becoming 'more than friends' with him.

After some time, she went back to the palace. She had just learnt from Bone that he had a girlfriend, the one who was with him on the day she met him. She was quite happy for him, but felt a tinge of jealousy because most of her friends had girlfriends and she was the only one who didn't have someone to love.

She vaguely remembered the time the Goddess visited her (even if it was just a month ago) and knows now how much she's changed since then. A month ago she wouldn't even consider loving or being loved when now she wanted it.

A/N: I know this is a short chappie but what can I do? I don't have anything in my brain sooo… and it's not like watching the lifestyle of cheetahs is doing any help either but fine, I'll continue it. : D I'll make this longer and this is my CHRISTMAS gift to ya all!

Just reaching the edge of the forest, playing with the token the Goddess had given her, a cheetah ran out and jumped on her. (See what I had to resort to? Watching this stupid cheetah show coz of my sister made me put one here coz I have nothing to say!!) Caught by surprise, Alanna made a grab for her dagger (since she left Lightning in the palace) and started to stab the cheetah. When she finally killed it, she confirmed that she had a gash on her arm and started to hold the Goddess's token for … comfort? She didn't know the real reason. It just made her feel… safer. At that moment, she saw orange magic slipping away form the dead body of the cheetah.

Roger's color of magic/gift! Why would he want to kill me? it's not like I'm a threat to him. Or am I? I wouldn't think he wants anything from Raoul… but wait! Alex! He was looking for Raoul's journal that everyone trips on!!!! I wonder why. Alanna thought. Now this was something she should ponder soon enough.

Meanwhile, at the palace…

Jon was walking towards the corridors when he heard something coming from a closet door. He was debating with himself whether to open it or not when, all of a sudden, out of the blue, without warning, the door flung open and out tumbled two red-faced people.

They are…
