Chapter 2: Escape, training, talking, and capture.
Keladry sighed, and not for the first time that day. She could not believe what she had
done, and to add on the embarrassment, in front of a bunch of soldiers.
It was in the courtyard Dom found her, practicing with her glaive, wondering if
*she*, Keladry of Mindelan, Lady Knight of Tortall, and a very good friend for people,
wasn't the one taking something.
"Trying to kill yourself, Lady Knight?" Dom asked, leaning on the fence.
"You wish," Keladry panted, and stopped walking over to him, wiping her face.
"No, really. I was wondering why I was acting so stupidly last night."
"What? Something was wrong, I didn't even notice."
"Very funny, Sergeant." She smiled at him, making his heart jump. Why was he
feeling this, sure he'd felt like it ever since he'd met her, but never had he felt like that to
any lady.
"I was totally strange. I mean, wearing a dress, I was putting on a show, and
flirting..FLIRTING with you!"
"Hey, I like being flirted with, and you looked nice in that dress."
Kel blushed, and jumped over the fence.
"Change the subject." She said.
"Okay, well what are you doing out here?"
"That's an easy one."
"Well?"
Kel looked at him, then whispered, "Hiding from Yuki, Buri and Lasala, yes their all
here."
"Why?"
Kel shuddered, and looked disgusted. "They're going to make me wear a dress again! For
the wedding. Last night was a one time experience, it was terrible! This time they want to
add a corset, petticoats, jewels, and..." she shuddered again, "face paint!"
Dom laughed, this time making Kel's heart leap.
"But Keladry, you look beautiful without dresses and face paint." Dom hit himself
inside, he had practically told her his feelings for her. But Keladry ignored it.
"Well, tell that to *them*!" She grinned. "Besides, listening to Yuki and Lasala
talking about all the men they suppose I'll impress, that's rather boring."
Well, it's true, you already impressed me along time ago, Dom thought.
"Um, what about Lord Raoul, what'd he say?"
"Him! That traitor, he was the one who suggested it!"
Dom laughed at Keladry's pouting look. "It can't be that bad."
"Bad!!! Domitan you have no idea! You come to me one time and I'll dress you
all up!"
Dom paled, "But I'm a man, we don't where dresses! Ladies wear dresses."
"Dom? Am I a lady?"
"Well, yes..."
"Wrong answer," she punched him playfully on the shoulder.
"Ow..." "OOO, Keladry?!?!" Yuki called, hurrying up and grabbing hold of Kel.
"Ha, I've got her!" Quickly Buri and Lasala ran out, and took hold of Kel's arms.
"No, you guys don't do this to me!" Kel said, as they dragged her off.
What do you think? I know Kel's not acting like Kel, but I like the story!!
