"No!"
"Lara, I thought you loved to travel!"
"Yes father, Europe would be great, an adventure. But Auntie? Daddy, you know we wouldn't get along, maybe it's just best I stay home?"
"No, your going to stay with your aunt, and her butler, and you'll be in their huge, beautiful mansion! That doesn't sound so bad." After she's done with her, Lara will be the most well brought up girl. She will learn its not a lady's job, and never think to do archeology again. She will only want Micheal, he'll be perfect. I hope.
Lord Henshingly Croft knew Lara too well that she would never grow out of it, after all she had the same passion for adventure as he did. And he knew that she would want to always be on her own, and if she pursued this profession, would never marry the Earl of Farrington. Lord Henshingly decided the best idea here was to send Lara away to her aunt, who was one of the strictest women. But even though she could make a pit bull learn proper manners, there's a small chance that Lara will forget about what she wants to do. This is the only chance I have. If she could just silently convince Lara how it's not a lady's work... oh just something!
".... And also, if I am spending my summer before boarding school so miserably, I could start the year bad, and that could mean a lot of wasted time and money. Time for me, money for you, and not to mention that I could be the one making auntie go crazy. Heh, you know me father, and besides that Europe is an educational place, but so is England. I promise that I'll spend my time going to churches and museums and-"
"Lara, you're going and that's it! I will not have you argue any more! Your 16 years old, it is not your decision to make!"
Lara was sitting in the middle of a large sitting room filled with paintings and large old fashioned white chairs. With her two braids on each side of her head and her face with a strong anger in her eyes, but she looked gorgeous anyway, and made the scene look like a storybook picture. She was absolutely frustrated with the new change of plans.
I wonder what's been going on. It's so strange that all of a sudden Dad won't tell me about his trips anymore, my family is trying to take me away from what I love! and now Father wants me to go with Auntie. I don't understand this. Wait, what's this? Oh my god! This is it! The chance I've been waiting for! Von Croy! I remember him! And he liked me, now he's having this expedition. YES! Perfect for everything... I'll go all around Asia!
* * *
"No." Henshingly said. "I have got an awful feeling about this Lara. I just think you should get this out of your head, your only 16!"
"But dad, Von Croy is amazing! And I trust him, he's done stuff like this before, so what's to say this time will be bad. He'll teach me how to survive in the true art of archeology and adventure! Please, how can you say no to this! And this is educational!" And fun! Why won't he let me?
"It's out of the question. End of discussion." Wait a minute! This is a better idea then any I've had. "Wait, maybe Lara. Don't get your hopes up; I'll talk to this Von Croy. See how reliable he is." I'm brilliant!
